Only My Way

In his previous life, Ling Wuyuan had been interviewed during his successful rise to wealth.

【A background-less orphan successfully achieving financial freedom in his twenties is truly a testament to the continuous progress of society…】Leaving aside other matters, the reporter could easily churn out several articles based on this popular theme alone.

Therefore, Ling Wuyuan had been interviewed three times by three different media outlets.

Although they were only regional media, it still gave Ling Wuyuan some recognition in the eyes of those around him, making his career smoother and allowing him to achieve financial success earlier than planned.

【This person seems to have some fame and has even been in the newspapers. He probably isn't a swindler.】

This was a simple but practical impression.

But many people struggled their entire lives to achieve this level.

And in this life, facing the so-called 【article writer】 from the 【Inquiry Gazette】, Ling Wuyuan actually had a strange feeling of 【Oh~ After many years, I'm finally being interviewed again】.

Well, a bit strange and complex.

Especially when he thought about how miserable he had been in the past few years, he felt a sense of inexplicable sorrow of 【Down and out】→【Rise to wealth】→【Down and out again】→【Rise to wealth again】, as if things had become a cycle.

It was truly a bitter wine that caused heartache.

The middle-aged man sitting next to Ling Wuyuan was also a little nervous facing Ling Wuyuan's gaze.

It was a kind of awkward tension all over his body.

Although Ling Wuyuan's expression was calm and tranquil, without any excitement.

But those eyes with deep gray vertical pupils still gave him the feeling of facing a high-level demon beast.

'What a handsome young man…'

'It's just that those eyes are a bit too sharp…'

'Some kind of special bloodline or special physique…'

Subconsciously.

The man had these thoughts.

'Moreover… this young man does indeed have an extraordinary bearing, so calm and composed, without any nervousness or anxiety. His true identity must not be simple; he must have seen a lot…'

He had no idea that Ling Wuyuan was thinking about strange things at this moment.

Even less did he know that Ling Wuyuan's extreme composure and tranquility were simply due to a bit of facial paralysis.

After sitting down.

The man quickly took the initiative to introduce himself:

“It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency. Seeing is believing. Your Excellency is far younger and more handsome than I initially imagined!”

“I am Li Yuchen from the 【Inquiry Gazette – Snow Deer State Branch】. The reason for my visit is because I heard that Your Excellency shares the same name as someone I heard about some time ago, and your strengths are also similarly close…”

Hearing this, Ling Wuyuan was slightly surprised.

“Someone with the same name?”

Li Yuchen nodded affirmatively:

“Yes, the same name.”

After sizing up Ling Wuyuan with some suspicion, he bluntly said:

“And even the age is similar, except that the other person has black hair and black eyes, while Your Excellency has gray hair and gray eyes.”

After a moment of silence.

Ling Wuyuan spoke the truth:

“…Well, if the person you're talking about used to live near Black Rock City, then I think the person you're talking about is the same person as me.”

“I used to have black hair and black eyes, but recently I awakened some kind of special physique, so my hair color and pupil color have changed a little.”

Li Yuchen's eyes lit up immediately:

“So that's how it is.”

“I was wondering how there could be two outstanding young people with the same name and similar age simultaneously emerging in Snow Deer State!”

However.

Although he seemed surprised.

Li Yuchen wasn't too surprised by this. Instead, he felt that things were as expected.

Because this was the most logical outcome.

Before meeting Ling Wuyuan, he had already foreseen the truth.

Therefore, his words were more of a compliment to Ling Wuyuan, to facilitate the upcoming conversation.

After speaking.

Li Yuchen sighed:

“Young Hero Ling, you don't know this, but my colleague near Black Rock City was very shocked when he heard that there was a young man who could single-handedly destroy a local gang with several 【Qi Nurturing Realm members】 at the age of ten!”

“Without any hesitation, he immediately rushed to the scene to investigate the situation!”

“He even investigated the surrounding area for a long time.”

“Even the gang that Young Hero Ling used to be in, the 【Black Crow Gang】, my colleague specially investigated, but… the results weren't great. Even the leader of the 【Black Crow Gang】 knew very little about you. My colleague could only confirm that the rumors were true through some members of the 【Black Crow Gang】 and some survivors of the 【Cloud Piercing Gang】, confirming that you do exist in this world, and that you did indeed defeat the entire 【Cloud Piercing Gang】 fair and square…”

The newest novels are first published on Liu 9 Shu Ba!

“But before that, Your Excellency was truly too low-key.”

“Just literally low-key.”

“None of your acquaintances successfully noticed how strong you really are…”

To be reasonable.

Listening to these words, Ling Wuyuan felt like his underwear had been exposed.

Of course, it wasn't a big problem.

The reason was simple.

He didn't wear underwear at all.

He didn't even have pants…

He was just a lone wanderer.

As for his so-called origins, he didn't care how the other party investigated.

It would already be impressive if they could find out that he used to be a beggar in Black Rock City…

If they could even find out that he was a transmigrator, then he could only admit defeat…

While lightly recounting Ling Wuyuan's past information, Li Yuchen was secretly observing Ling Wuyuan, because he wasn't sure if the 【Inquiry Gazette】's previous investigation into the other party would provoke his disgust.

In this regard.

Many people were very secretive about their true origins.

Either they had some hidden secrets.

Or they simply didn't want to cause trouble for relatives and friends.

But after observing for a while, Li Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief.

He found that Ling Wuyuan had no reaction at all to being investigated.

Even when he was mentioned that he had stayed in the 【Black Crow Gang】 for two or three years, there was no reaction.

All he had was a calm face.

As if he didn't mind being investigated at all.

This made Li Yuchen roughly understand which questions he could ask Ling Wuyuan later.

As a reporter, well… as a guy in this world called an 【article writer】, he knew very well that for some guys, questions that shouldn't be asked must never be asked!

Otherwise, the other party would kill you in minutes…
