Chapter 832 Chapter 832 An Unexpected Quest
A few months passed and our bored gamer's life in the city of Lucky Origin stayed calm and comfortable.
There was nothing that he needed to prove nor do and his aspirations laid in this humble city for now and so everything was perfect for him.
The same could be said to the people that was around him since our good gamer simply radiated simplicity at its finest.
He was a great boss in the Pill Emporium store because he treated everyone equally with respect. The workers in the store led a happy working career under our very own protagonist.
The easy days went by like this until a very special occasion has arrived in time.
"Happy birthday, boss! May you live up to a hundred thousand years and more!" A drunk yet merry man raised his cup.
"With your words, I have no doubt that I will." Clark also raised his cup and both of them emptied it at once.
"A hundred thousand years of prosperity!" The rest of the audience joined in the toast.
This was only a humble gathering and the numbers of the guest only amounted to more than a hundred people. The majority of them were all loyal workers of the Pill Emporium store.
The rest were family and close relatives which was not that many to be frank.
Out of the hundreds of half siblings and 3 true siblings that our bored gamer had, only 1 of them was present in his 30th birthday. Her name was Su Ai and she was older than Clark by 5 years.

This was nothing unusual at all since the head of the family was always busy and all. Nevertheless, Clark never held any resentment from this man's actions.
"Happy birthday, younger brother! Accept this little gift from your big sister. I wish that you would never have to need them but if tragedy comes, I hope that this will save you in those dire times."
Su Ai said and gave 3 escaping talismans that was locked inside a gift box. Su Ai may have been already 35 but she looked not a day older than 18 and extremely pretty.
This was of course nothing new since almost all cultivators possessed an out of this world exterior and charm.
"This thing is too much, sister! It's not like I'll be heading into a battlefield any time soon." Clark laughed but has not the heart to deny his big sister's kindness.
He accepted it with a thankful heart instead. It was his mother's turn to come to him next.
"Are you happy, Wen'er?" Xie Ming asked in a solemn voice. She knew of her son's difficulties and the absence of Zi Ling was perhaps the greatest scar of this occasion.
Still, she was proud of how selfless and mature her son had been. He had willingly let go of Zi Ling and set her free to return to the Silver Sea Palace.
A mother could have never asked for a better son than Su Wen.
"I can't be anymore happier than today, mother. Your presence is all that I needed. And thank you for coming tonight. Even big sister Su Ai with all her allure could only come second next to you.
You made this day a whole lot more memorable, mother." Clark smiled and granted a kiss on his mother's forehead.
His mother also suffered because of his inability before but he could only hope that his father would spend more time with Xie Ming.
Alas, that was a hard wish to fulfill since the man had hundreds of wives and was also busy cultivating at the same time. There was a few that was bound to be left wanting in the end.
"You and your sweet tongue." Xie Ming giggled briefly before giving her son a tight hug.
She wanted to give her son more than the normal mortal life he had but alas, some things were just not meant to be.
"I won't let you go home without you puking your guts out, mother. Come on, let's drink until morning!" Clark issued a challenge and he would try his best to complete it.
Although it would be a tall order to intoxicate a true cultivator with this kind of average spirits but at least our bored gamer will do his hardest.
The party lasted for 4 days before our avid gamer finally tumbled to rest with one last cup.
"Nice try, Wen'er." Xie Ming praised his deep slumbering son.
"I can't believe that he lasted this long against us, mother." Su Ai commented in the side. She could not help but rope herself in on the drinking challenge also.
"I've told you before and I'll tell you again. Your younger brother is an amazing man, my daughter. Even more so than most of the men I know."
Xie Ming smiled and spent some more time looking at his son with love.
"I agree, mother. This little brother of mine is really something else." Su Ai nodded and followed the gaze of her mother.

"Patriarch! You got a letter from Pan Clan of the Imperial North City." A sexy slave announced towards the Su Patriarch. The girl kneeled in place thereafter.
"Another one?" The Su Patriarch opened a palm and the letter floated towards him. It did not need telling that he had received quite a lot of important messages today already.
He spent less than breath to read the contents of this newly arrived letter. He did not even have to open the thing in order to perceive what was written.
The spiritual senses of cultivators really had many uses.
"Send Su Wuhan to the occasion." Patriarch Su immediately conjured up a name to go in his stead. He returned the letter to whence it came.
"At once, Patriarch!" The sexy woman said after she caught the letter easily and then she vanished from the place.

"Young Master Su Wuhan, the Patriarch has orders." The same sexy woman appeared before a man who was busy practicing with his sword.
His hand movements were as sharp as the blade he was wielding.
"If it's the usual stuff, I can't take it. I'm on the verge of breakthrough. Leave it to the other bastards instead." Su Wuhan replied in an annoyed voice.
"But young master…"
"No buts! I remember that I have a useless half brother in the name of Su Wen. Trouble that trash instead!"
