Chapter 260: New Identity
Chapter 260: New Identity
"...What the hell is this?"
While Lin Xiao was utterly speechless, Lin Hu had even more exaggerated of reaction. He was laughing maniacally inside Lin Xiao’s consciousness because of the description that Prince Lin Yan had put there.
Lies were easier to detect if everything was completely wrong. But if it was only 20% lies and 80% truth, they would find it harder to find out the truth.
In any case, most of the things written there was the absolute truth regarding Lin Xiao.
"I’m not a troublemaker!" Lin Xiao protested in his mind.
Lin Hu sneered. "If you’re not a troublemaker, what do you think you are? I’m absolutely sure that you’re a troublemaker with how much you have created trouble so far."
"Damn you!"
"I’m not the one who instigated you to do it."
Lin Xiao’s face contorted. He gritted his teeth and rushed over to look at what Prince Lin San got.
Name: Hu San
Age: 18
Rank: Foundation Establishment
History: He’s the son of a noble named Hu Family. Had twin brother named Hu San. He’s known to be a peacemaker ever since he was young and was someone who loved to observe others more than anything. He didn’t seem to care whether he can be differed from his twin brother. So far, he’s entering the mercenary with hope to make sure that his twin brother didn’t create trouble.
Lin Xiao: "..."
Prince Lin San was also astounded when he saw the information here. He looked at his twin brother with curiosity. "Troublemaker and peacemaker."
"Shut up..." Lin Xiao felt utterly annoyed with that. Why did he have to be the one with the title troublemaker and Prince Lin San was the one with the title of peacemaker? Why can’t they switch their role?
Lin Hu snorted. He knew very well that Prince Lin San was much calmer than Lin Xiao. In terms of disposition, Prince Lin San would not be as reckless as Lin Xiao so it was indeed more apt for him to become the peacemaker.
It was just Lin Xiao who felt bad.
Prince Lin San smiled lightly. "At the very least, the age is right."
"Is it fine to reveal our age?" Lin Xiao then asked. He wanted to know about whether that age was actually too fast or something.
"There’s no need to worry. 18 years old and being a Foundation Establishment Cultivator is extremely common." Prince Lin San waved his hand. He looked at his twin brother in amusement. "Could it be that you don’t know that there are a lot of noble family children who have their children at Foundation Establishment during their teenage age? In comparison, we’re ordinary."
Ordinary...
The word felt a bit annoying to hear but Lin Xiao merely sighed. He really didn’t have any good head start from the very beginning. This was why he was still at Foundation Establishment even now.
Inside his consciousness, Lin Hu snorted. If Lin Xiao were to compare himself with other children who cultivated earlier than him, it did look slow. But since Lin Xiao himself spent a long time for his foundation... his speed was not that slow either.
In fact, it was better than average.
Of course, there were still many who were faster and more heaven defying. For Lin Xiao to match against them would still need a long time.
Lin Xiao then walked to Princess Lan Yi Hua
Name: Xiao Hua
Age: 18
Rank: Foundation Establishment
History: She’s the daughter of the noble Xiao Family. She’s a quiet child but had beautiful face. After some dispute within her family, she decided to join the mercenary in hope that she could grow stronger.
Lin Xiao read the information and instantly felt speechless. Why did he feel that all of the others’ information was better than him?
Princess Lan Yi Hua noticed Lin Xiao staring at her new identity and tilted her head. History was just one part, there were also other things such as like, dislike, friends, temperament, and many others. However, Lin Xiao only focused on the history because he was curious.
"Is yours that bad?"
"Not really..." Lin Xiao sighed and showed the scroll.
Princess Lan Yi Hua glanced at it then giggle. She looked at Lin Xiao with smile in her eyes. "That’s suitable for you."
Suitable?
Even you?
Lin Xiao wanted to cry yet there were no tears. In the end, he glanced over to Xia Ye, who willingly showed the parchment that Prince Lin Yan gave to him.
Name: Hei Ye
Age: 16
Rank: Foundation Establishment
History: He’s a wandering cultivators and also a quiet one. He prioritized finishing his mission faster so that he could grow stronger and earn more money. Joining the mercenary was merely one thing that he wanted to do in hope that he would be able to grow stronger.
Lin Xiao stared at the top row of the information before he looked at Xia Ye. "16 years old?"
"I’ll be 17 soon." Xia Ye raised his head and looked back at Lin Xiao with confusion. "Is there anything wrong?"
"...No, there’s nothing wrong."
Internally, Lin Xiao merely felt his heart bleeding at the thought of his own cultivation. Why did it feel as if he was too slow? Even those who were younger than him were all better than him.
*Sigh*
He had to work harder!
Lin Hu watched as Lin Xiao felt defeated and snorted once more. What an idiot. Why did he even want to compare himself with those who had plenty of resources ever since they were young?
Those people just simply had head start in their lives that allowed them to be stronger faster.
Prince Lin Yan looked at them and shook his head lightly. "I’ll be Hu Yan from now on, so you make sure to not call me with the wrong name."
Lin Xiao and Prince Lin San were both speechless. Alright, they were still brothers even when they have fake identity.
