Chapter 1173: There Are People Beyond Us
Finally returned to the underground entertainment world, the hunter’s injuries had basically healed thanks to Gu Ling’s treatment, and he was grateful to her. When business hours came, it wouldn’t affect his ability to receive customers.
Lin Yue’s wounds had healed, but his body was still a mass of bruises, darkening his mood. That masked girl was detestable; surely, she deliberately claimed her supernatural power was insufficient and only healed him halfway on purpose.
Regarding this, the hunter said, "Who made you comment on her being young and having such a temper halfway through? Couldn’t you have complimented her instead?"
Lin Yue was filled with regret, "Master, you didn’t hear her outrageous demands. She said that when she heals someone, she must see their true face, or the effectiveness would be reduced. What kind of nonsense is that? How could I possibly remove my mask?"
Indeed, the hunter felt helpless and could only offer comfort, "Let it go, she saved us tonight and even healed your wounds. You should be thankful, not resentful."
"Yes, yes, I am definitely grateful to her." Suddenly, Lin Yue recalled something, "Master, you know that girl, who are you anyway?"
The hunter shook his head, "If she’s wearing a mask, that means she doesn’t want you to know her identity. She just saved me; how could I possibly reveal her identity? And remember one thing, it’s best to keep your distance from that girl. The life she leads in her circle is anything but peaceful. If you get to know her, you might get dragged into her troubles too."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue looked puzzled, "Master, aren’t you exaggerating a bit? We’re currently up against Organization X and vampires, our lives are already full of perils and dramatic moments. Could there possibly be anyone who has it worse than us?"
"Yes, I used to think no one’s life was more tense and exciting than mine, until I met them. Only then did I realize what it means to see a great sorcerer at work," the hunter said as if there really was something to it. Lin Yue believed him and started to imagine what kind of life those people led, silently swearing to himself to not get involved with them.
