Yi Zheng, despite his desire to become stronger, did not want to die!
Put simply, Yi Zheng's goal in becoming stronger was to not get beaten to death, or to be killed repeatedly by others.
After much contemplation, he realized he had to seek out The Queen Mother of the West.
Upon hearing Yi Zheng's plight, Hu, who was drowsy and cuddling a golden mountain, wiped away some drool and said, "Well, your situation is such that ordinary people hitting you really won't do much good. Attacks that lack malice, hate, or a desire to kill can hardly reach your twin golden cores. And those cores won't release their healing powers to boost your strength for self-preservation."
So, acquaintances are useless.
You need to find those who don't know the details about you, or who still don't like you even after knowing your details, and who dare to lift a hand against you."
