nChapter 117: Gold Coast

nTranslator: Lonelytree

n“You know the Art of Equilibrium?

nMatthew looked at Old Lucky in surprise.

nOld Lucky patted the branches on his body and walked out from the bushes.

n“I’ve met an envoy of equilibrium several times. He saved my life twice. A very great man.”

nMatthew hurriedly asked, “Where is the Envoy of Equilibrium now? Is it convenient for you to reveal more?”

nOld Lucky said regretfully, ” I don’t know where he went either. In fact, I only know a little about the Art of Equilibrium. I only know that it’s a path created by the Su in the south.

n“About a hundred years ago, when the Su and Jango were still friendly, the Jango shamans and the Su elders had a very deep exchange of knowledge.

n“At that time, the two sides had built many houses on the Gold Coast, and they were very close.

n“It was said that the Su was also encouraging the Jangos to build a ship that could cross the sea with them. They claimed that as long as the ship was built, they could bring back the wealth hidden in the depths of the sea and share it with the Jangos.

n“Many of the Jangos were tempted. They yearned for the Su’s superb technology. The two sides were working together more closely, and the Art of Equilibrium was probably a product of that time.

n“But when the Feathered Serpent God got angry, the Jangos had to cut off all contact with the Su.

n“Later on, there were no more practitioners of the Art of Equilibrium in the rainforest.

n“I heard that the Su themselves lost the complete inheritance of the Art of Equilibrium.

n“The one I met when I was young was probably the last Envoy of Equilibrium of the Su.

n“His final destination seems to be the sea. I’m not sure.”

nMatthew was slightly disappointed.

n“So, you’re here for the Art of Equilibrium? Old Lucky unconsciously rubbed his tobacco leaves.

nMatthew nodded.

n“Then I advise you to lower your expectations.”

nOld Lucky sighed and said,

n” The number of the Su has been greatly reduced. A considerable number of the Su are only willing to believe that the other side of the sea is their home. They are unwilling to integrate into the life of this continent.

n“These people’s final destination is the sea.

n“A small number of Su who were willing to integrate here lost their ancestral skills and became island natives, not much stronger than the Jangos.”

nMatthew quickly adjusted his state of mind.

n“Thank you for your reminder, but since I’m already here, I should continue to try.”

nOld Lucky didn’t say anything else.

nLorraine, who was beside him, asked curiously, “What do you mean by their

n‘final destination is the sea’? Did they turn into Nagas?”

nOld Lucky coughed twice. He didn’t want to answer, but when he saw Matthew’s curious expression, he said, ” It’s a secret ritual of the Su. They firmly believe that the souls of their ancestors on the other side of the sea will guide them on their way back. Therefore, before they die, or when they feel a strong calling, they will step into the sea empty-handed.”

nLorraine was shocked. “Is that not suicide?”

nOld Lucky frowned.” In our opinion, this is no different from sending themselves to their deaths. However, it has an extraordinary meaning to them. They consider themselves to be wanderers who were abandoned by their homeland. In order to return to their homeland, they are willing to do anything. In this regard, the Su have a particularly strong obsession.” “Is there such an obsession?” Lorraine asked in surprise. It’s really puzzling.”

nOld Lucky immediately warned, “In any case, when you’re in alien territory, resoectinc their customs is the most basic courtesv and survival rule. The Jangos are like this, and so are the Su. It’s fine for us to discuss a few things behind their backs now, but we can’t say these things in front of them.”

nLorraine pursed his lips, but he soon became happy again, as if he had new material.

n“Let’s go.”

nMatthew reminded them, “This rainforest shouldn’t cause us trouble anymore.”

nAs he spoke, as if to confirm this point, he walked towards the two Piranha Flowers that had been fighting.

n“Be careful!”

nOld Lucky shouted.

n“It’s alright.”

nMatthew replied casually.

nThen, Old Lucky and Lorraine were surprised to see Matthew walk to the Piranha Flower unscathed.

nThe moment he got close, the two Piranha Flowers actually stopped fighting!

nMoreover, they did not attack Matthew. Instead, they kept swaying their bodies as if they were yearning for something. “Didn’t you say that this rainforest hates you?” Lorraine looked as if he had seen a ghost.

n“I think she doesn’t hate me that much now.”

nMatthew smiled and stretched out his hand. The two Piranha Flowers frantically rubbed the back of Matthew’s hand with their flower buds as if they had been domesticated for many years.

nThis scene was too horrifying and bizarre.

nOld Lucky almost lost his grip on the pipe in his hand!

n“Magic, you must have used magic!” Lorraine shouted,

n‘Why don’t you move aside and let me try?”

nMatthew took half a step back.

nBefore Lorraine could step forward, the two Piranha Flowers snapped with fury, and they started to pinch each other crazily!

nOne of the flowers spun around in a big circle after the scuffle was too intense. It suddenly brushed past Lorraine’s trousers. The serrated edge of the flower bud suddenly extended and scraped off a few pieces of cloth on his body.

n“Matthew! The duration of your spell is too short!”

nLorraine shouted.

nBut at this moment, Matthew turned around and walked into another bush. He could feel that he had entered a strange state.

nBefore he could even do anything, the bushes automatically parted to the sides..
