Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 201: Unfair?



Chapter 201: Unfair?

"Uhh… don't mind her, she is known to be cold around here," Kong Yuhan tried to make Alex feel better, but he couldn't think of anything proper to say in response to what had just happened. In fact, if what she said about him getting everything for free was true, even Kong himself felt that the situation was really unfair.

But, he didn't want to say anything about that until he got more information.

"It's okay brother Kong. She wasn't wrong about it being unfair," Alex said.

Kong was stunned. "So, it's true?" Kong asked in a stupefied voice. He couldn't accept what he was hearing.

"About it being unfair? Yes. But what can I do about it? I got lucky. I can't just throw away my luck in search of fairness for others, now can I? It's not like I deliberately went out looking to create problems for others by getting what I got. I took what I was handed and used it to the best I could. If that is unfair, then I am the least of its offender," Alex said.

"But still, If you truly got everything with 0 contributions, then it is wrong. It makes us who actually try and contribute feel like we are looked down on by the sect, never give anything," Kong Yuhan said.

"I never said I didn't contribute at all," Alex said. "I did a lot of things to contribute to the sect. While it is true what I got back might or might not measure up to what I contributed, it is still wrong to ignore my contribution and only look at what I got."

Kong Yuhan's eye brightened up. "So you did contribute. Even if it's a little, it makes me feel better. It no longer sounds like you got everything for free," he said.

Alex simply smiled. He turned around to look back at the house he was going to leave empty for who knew how long. He then looked back to the house two sister's house.

"Zhou Mei's house should be further away, right?" Alex asked.

"Yes, but she says she wants to spend a few days with her sister now, so she is staying here," Kong said.

"I see," he said as he looked around the place with the lined-up houses. "By the way, which one is your brother Kong?" he asked.

"Mine? It's that one. The one after that one," Kong said as he pointed to a house that was two houses over Zhou Mi's house.

"Oh right, I recall saying you were the only passing inner sect disciple from last test right? So the house in between yours and sister Zhou Mi's must be that guy from this morning," Alex asked.

"Yeah. He already brought all of his stuff over and is down at the sect valley, I think," Kong replied with a dejected voice.

"What's wrong? You sound depressed right now," Alex asked.

"Remember when I told you I would ask him to switch houses with me? Well, I did and he refused. He had already brought in all of his furniture by the time I got to ask him, and he didn't want to go through the hassle all over again."

"I even offered to do it myself, but the man said he didn't want to live in a house that was already inhabited by someone else," Kong said as he sighed.

Alex thought for a moment and asked, "So… correct me if I'm wrong, but you don't really want his house, right?"

"No, I do want it," Kong replied with a weird look. He wondered why Alex would ask something he had already explained beforehand.

"No, what I meant to say is, you only want a house that is next to sister Zhou Mi's right?" Alex asked.

Hearing this, Kong Yuhan's checks started getting red as he blushed. "Ye-Yes," he answered. Alex smiled and asked, "Why don't you take mine then?"

Kong Yuhan froze for a moment after hearing Alex's proposition. Then, he immediately facepalmed himself, screaming to himself, "Idiot. Why did I not think of that? Brother Alex, would you really be willing to swap house with me?" Kong asked, desperately.

Alex chuckled. "Didn't I just say you can take mine?"

Kong Yuhan's eyes started shining. "Thank you, brother Yu. You are a lifesaver. Let me go get my stuff from my house and we can swap the keys," he said. He immediately ran to his house to get all of his stuff.

It seemed he was waiting for this moment for quite a while and took less than 5 minutes to store everything into his storage bag. He came running back out.

"Let's swap the key, Brother Yu," he said. Alex nodded and handed over his nameplate. Kong Yuhan took no time to swap the key and handed Alex's nameplate back to him.

Alex checked the nameplate, nodded, and kept it in his bag. "I have the stuff to do tomorrow, so I will leave, brother Kong," he said.

"Huh, you are not going to look at your new home?" Kong asked. "Is it because I used to live there? Cuz I can promise you, it's only been a week since I got it and I haven't touched anything in there aside from the alchemy room."

"That's not it, Brother Kong. Remember, I have a home in the sect leader's mountain as well? Well, it's actually better than this house and it's closer to my master's so I like staying there. I might actually just ask master to give away the key to this house to someone else if I get the chance," Alex said.

"Ah, I see. That makes sense," Kong Yuhan said.

"Anyway, it was good seeing you, Brother Kong. See you later," Alex said and started walking away. While returning, he passed along the sect valley to check if there were any Yang Jade, but there weren't any.

Disappointed, he returned back to the sect leader's mountain and went back to his house.
