Chapter 319: Difference Between Earthlings & Utopians
When the man spoke, Hudson began to produce unrest as he claimed to recognise this voice. But his attempts to recollect the memories met a dead end due to certain reasons.
[I am damn sure that I know his voice. My gut tells me that I recognise this voice... But...]
Hudson was becoming more and more uncomfortable as he repeatedly failed to locate the memories regarding the tone.
[Hey, keep calm and take your time. We are not in a hurry.]
D tried to calm the troubled soul and Ruella gave her energy support.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Weily Triad from the prestigious Triad household."
The ripples of anger Hudson produced were intense and Lee Shen felt his emotions. He had to implore Hudson to restrain his sentiments for the time being.
"We, the Triad household, are not stupid like the rotten Hunt family. We have our pride as the most discerning minds in the islands and on the mainlands.
I am the eldest in the 32nd generation of the Triad household. Our household came to know about the foreigner who had tamed dragons and infamous creatures a few hours ago.
Thus, our current patriarch would like to invite you to our household."
With a gesture of respect, the tall man conveyed his intention of arrival. While expressing his words, his eyes have skimmed over the beasts standing behind Lee Shen.
"I am a nobody, a simple human. What merit do I have to be invited by the Triad household?"
Lee Shen had a faint smirk as he raised a question. His hands moved and clasped behind him.
Finding the unchanging expression of the young man, Weily deduced that this man might be difficult to rope in.
"The Triad household treats everyone fairly regardless of their financial status. We see every stranger as a guest to the island.
The patriarch heard about the troubles you had to face when you landed at the port. Since most people who end up at the wrong end of the military rule are threatened or humiliated, he would like to show our hospitality as an apology for their hostile behaviour.
And as a stranger to the mainland, we could also help you establish connections and create worthy accomplices."
If it was anyone else, Weily's words would have made them approve to go to the Triad household. But Lee who knows Hudson's past displayed hesitation on his face.
Taking a few moments to act like weighing the pros and cons of the invitation, Lee engaged in a quick chat with D and Ruella. Hudson shared his memories and evaluated that their original intention must lie in acquiring the beasts. He also added that they are known for their devious and underhanded ways of achieving their goals.
The young blood of Lee Shen was fired with the excitement of adventure when he listened to Hudson's words. Neglecting all the comments of the subspace residents, he displayed a nod with a faint smile, gesturing approval of Weily's request.
Inside the System Space.
"Is he for real?! I just told you all that the Triad family is one unfaithful bastard and Lee agreed to visit them!"
If Hudson was not shouting, then things would have been abnormal. Ruella sat on the grassy ground while observing Hudson mumbling angrily under his breath nonstop.
Turning her head, she saw the Dimension Sovereign taking a sunbath in the warmth of the artificial sun. Ruella felt uncomfortable while seeing D's cool demeanour at the moment.
"D, can you explain what is happening?"
Ruella stood up and walked to D raising a question. Hudson, who was pacing to and fro, heard her question and wondered what the query was about.
With curiosity, he stepped to the amorphous entity.
"Before I transformed a part of my soul to the system, I was able to evaluate Lee Shen's soul in detail. From my observations, I primarily concluded that the humans of Earth are vastly different from the humans of Utopia.
Due to the lack of technological advancements, the planet of Utopia still holds a culture deeply related to nature and soil. The people dresses and addresses in a simple way. The presence of Qi and Mana and the purest form, Essence, creates a cycle that keeps all the lives connected with the trueness of sentience.
Earth, on the other hand, is devoid of any magical elements. The lack of directly utilizable energy propelled the humanity of Earth to contemplate the possibility of technology. This coincidentally gave birth to a system that slowly detached itself from the nature and mystery of life.
The soul and body of earthlings closely resemble that of a utopian. Except for the Qi pool and Mana pool, they are 100% identical.
But their soul density differs from one another like a professional and a newbie."
D took a break from his words to glance at Ruella and Hudson who were absorbing the revelations.
Finding their enthusiasm to his liking, D continued.
"The history of Utopia that spans over several hundreds of millennia have formulated a lifestyle rooted in nature. Be it a cultivator or an adventurer or a commoner, their lives are undeniably coiling around nature's existence by the bond of Qi and Mana.
But the situation on Earth is not hospitable for spiritual well-being.
The development of science and its disclosure of human's underlying greed and lust for power have taken them astray from the goodness of nature. They have constructed an alternative reality where they purposefully ignore the fact that mother nature that supports them is on the verge of collapse.
This transition that had taken its sweet time to embed deep into humanity has drained a considerable amount of the soul's density of all the earthlings."
Taking a deep breath, D concluded his detailed statement.
"If you were to visit Earth, you would either bury yourself in a pit or go on a killing spree to save the planet from the clutches of a species that should not have existed."
