Chapter 1160. Tight on Time (5)
“Fuu-huuph!”
Someone in the conference room barely managed to stifle his laughter.
Kang Jin-Ho grimaced deeply while slowly turning his head to look at the culprit. However, Vator sneakily turned away at the exact same time to avoid meeting his boss's glare.
“...Is something funny to you?” Kang Jin-Ho testily asked.
“Sorry about that, master. It’s not like I’m that old fart’s friend or anything like that, but still? I have to agree with him on this one.”
“...!” Kang Jin-Ho clamped his mouth shut.
“Let's be honest about this, master. What era are we even living in? Yes, a cultivator obsessing over their appearance is distasteful. However, at the very least, shouldn't you try to look presentable if you're planning to mingle with other people?”
“Presentable? Are you saying I’m not?”
“Master, look at what you’re wearing!”
Kang Jin-Ho’s gaze drifted lower to his clothing. And he saw a worn-out tracksuit, its collar stretching beyond salvage. Not only that but the fabric had faded so much, too! Overall, one would be inclined to say that Kang Jin-Ho’s get-up imparted a rather unique impression.
“Very unique, indeed!” Vator half-tutted and half-cackled. “You can find people like you back in the great plains, too. People who live on the uninhabited outskirts of nowhere to focus solely on their cultivation. Their attires can be very unrestricted, if you know what I mean.”
That didn't happen only in Mongolia, though. Such people could also be found in Korea. But they usually confined themselves on some nameless mountainsides to polish their martial arts.
