"Huh?"
Yu Fei froze. Ye Shuping's tone was gentle, but his expression hadn't changed one bit. The look behind his gold-rimmed glasses was frigid, like an icy blade piercing his heart.
An immense sense of powerlessness washed over him. 'This is absurd,' he thought. 'How am I supposed to do that?'
Seeing the young man before him, whose spirit seemed utterly crushed, Ye Shuping suddenly burst out laughing.
"Hahaha... How amusing, truly amusing! You were scared, weren't you?"
Ye Shuping clutched his stomach, doubled over with laughter. His life had been far too long. Aside from nurturing the younger generation's talents, his mind was entirely consumed with how to breach the Exotic Origin Realm and allow humanity to step out into a wider world.
Though such a life was fulfilling, it was also quite dull. Sometimes, teasing the youngsters was a rather enjoyable diversion.
