Banquet

The Khan silently observed the young man in front of him with curiosity showing on his weary face, as if the list were a joke that even he himself found lame.

But Gu Shenwei knew that this was not a joke. He folded the paper back in half, put it back in the tray, and after the female slave walked away, said, "I am prepared to give up everyone, but I won't accept any threats."

The Khan abruptly rose up as swiftly as a young man, and even his slightly hunched back straightened up a bit, though only for a short while. "It's really a pity that you would take this as a threat. I just wanted to help a young hero find himself. Believe in a dying man's experience. The things you see as more important than your life now will soon become as light and worthless as dust. Do not be fooled by women; all you love is their body, and there are countless beautiful bodies out there for you to explore."
