Lu Ren's chopsticks paused for a moment, then he picked up some meat, dipped it in sauce, and put it in his mouth without any sign of discomfort.

"Exactly!" Ji Quanzhen remarked with emotion, "Sometimes you can't blame those Bright Awakening Realm Martial Path practitioners, or the Qi Refiners, after all, both sides' cognitions have completely evolved into two different species. You say your things, they hear theirs, and in the end, it's apples to oranges. How can they come together?"
The two talked for a long time, mostly about trivial matters, discussing everything from mundane tasks to grand international situations. They also spoke of current policies now that the Kunlun Exotic Realm and Underworld have anchored and solidified connections with reality.
Several boxes of liquor were emptied, along with a special white wine Ji Quanzhen brought. Lu Ren felt pleasantly tipsy.
