"Yeah, places that are too lively really get on my nerves, so I just wanted to find a secluded spot to settle down,"
"Don't worry about it. What kind of relationship do we have? Rest easy, since you've taken over this place, I'll go back and put in a word—then this land, this village, will be yours, and no one will be able to say a thing about it."

Liu Zongyuan glanced carefully at the doorway, body leaning ever so slightly toward Li Huowang, deliberately lowering his voice before saying, "Hey, have you heard about that incident in the Capital City? The mood in the Bureau is really unsettled right now."
"Yeah, I heard. Seems the Sitting Oblivion Path set us up."
