In response to Elder Bai Mei's question, Su Mu remained silent for a long time.
Then, he looked over the Long River and said solemnly, "I am merely a seeker of the path; essentially, I am a creature, a living person."
"A person possesses seven emotions and six desires, which is quite normal."
"In my view, whether I have vulnerabilities or not is unimportant to me; what matters is whether I can protect those I wish to protect, and that is enough."
"To seek the path, to seek the path, is it not to seek the way of the heart?"
"If one cannot even guard one's true heart, then what is the meaning of cultivation?"
After hearing these words, Elder Bai Mei remained silent for a long time.
Some of Su Mu's words he understood, while others he did not.
From these words, Elder Bai Mei felt that Su Mu gave him a different feeling altogether from the powerful beings he encountered before. Even though Su Mu stood so high, he always kept himself very low.
