Yun Lintian pondered for a moment, carefully considering his words. He knew that the village head was shrewd and perceptive, and any inconsistencies in his story could arouse suspicion. He decided to continue with his fabricated tale of a cultivator emerging from seclusion, eager to learn about the world.
"As you see, Village Head," Yun Lintian began, his voice carrying a hint of wistful reminiscence, "I have been in seclusion for many years, cultivating in isolation, seeking enlightenment and mastery over my powers. However, as time passed, I began to feel a growing disconnect from the world, a sense of isolation that weighed heavily on my soul."
He paused, his gaze drifting towards the window, as if lost in thought. "I yearned to experience the world once more, to reconnect with world again. And so, I emerged from my seclusion, embarking on a journey of discovery and exploration."
