Chapter 2339 - Debating the Dao on a Snowy Night
The fragrance of roasting meat wafted into the air.
The flavor of the wine gradually deepened.
Outside a run-down temple, night was fast approaching, and snow flew through the air, pouring down like a waterfall and splattering the night skies. Cold winds cut through the sky like knives.
But none of them could disperse the warmth within the temple. The bonfire blazed, dispersing the inky darkness and alleviating the bone-piercing chill..
The dozing Su Yi stretched in his wicker chair, then grabbed the roasting meat and heated wine and feasted.
He’d spent the past year wandering the wilds and delighting in the red dust of mundanity, heedless of worldly affairs. When he encountered strife and adversity, he took it in coldly, then floated off.
The past year had steadied his heart and mind. He calmly took in the beauty of heaven and earth and all facets of creation.
His cultivation base hadn’t risen, but it was purer and firmer.
To the people of this world, he seemed no more than a passing stranger caked in dust.
In his eyes, this journey was a rare chance to empty his mind completely.
He’d nurtured an air of leisurely freedom, tempered a heart free of worries, and severed worldly strife and entered the red dust. It was only when he was alone that he could set everything aside, jump free of his cage, and see himself clearly once more.
Those who hurried missed the scenery along the way. Ultimately, he’d broken through too quickly, and overcome too many storms. He was right in the thick of things, and there was no avoiding rushing about. His time was not his own.
