Yang Pingtie moved forward in the ruins of Sapu City with three Sect Defenders.
The brief encounter with that expert earlier had made Yang Pingtie reflect a little. He started wondering if he was too tense and if his overly guarded stance had triggered the expert's vigilance.
—Perhaps I should relax a bit? After all, this task shouldn't be dangerous. Being overly cautious might actually provoke others' caution.
It's like that ancient adage, "The force you exert is reciprocated." How you treat the external world will result in corresponding feedback from the external world.
"Should I relax a bit more..." Yang Pingtie envisioned taking a deep breath.
A moment later, he voluntarily shut down part of his radar and forcibly went offline with some of his weapon systems to ensure his thoughts wouldn't develop an offensive bias.
