Chapter 10 What Did I Do Wrong?

[You discussed everything with Master Li Wanshou]

[You knew very well how bad your body was and there was no possibility of saving it. You began to arrange your funeral]

[In order to let your sister live a better life, you began to teach her, including but not limited to cultivation, interpersonal relationships, and the four arts of cultivating immortals]

[Your sister is very dependent on you, but your attitude has become cold, hoping to reduce her dependence on you , and dilute the relationship between you]

[You think you are just a dying man]

[You should not become a stumbling block that restricts the girl's future]

[With your current relationship, after you leave Tianjian Sect, Xu Moli will definitely go to find you regardless of everything. Therefore, you are actively destroying this relationship, wanting Xu Moli to have a lower impression of you, or even hate you]

[Only in this way will she not look for you who is missing]

[Only in this way will she not discover the truth]

[Only in this way can you feel at ease... and leave]

[Your behavior Because your behavior is quite effective, Xu Moli's dependence on you has decreased under your deliberate neglect, but she still respects you and regards you as a brother]

[Under your teaching, Xu Moli officially became a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage. She was very happy. You said two words in your expectant eyes]

["General."]

[Xu Moli felt wronged because of your neglect. You did not comfort her, but arranged more training courses]

[You are very anxious. Theoretically, you still have three years left to live, but your body has begun to collapse]

[One day, you found that there was a problem with your hearing]

[You disguised well, and the girl did not notice your physical condition. You silently accelerated the teaching process, hoping to teach the girl to be able to stand on your own before your body completely collapsed]

[Your overly strict teaching plan caused more dissatisfaction and grievances in the girl. She began to doubt that her position in your heart was not important]

[Why did it become like this? Why did the brother who once loved and cared for her become so cold today? 】

【More and more grievances, more and more doubts, Xu Moli can no longer bear it】

Half a year later.

Inside the cave.

The girl with a beautiful face, crystal tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes, her lips were tightly pursed, as if there were thousands of grievances flowing in her heart.

The corners of her mouth trembled slightly: "Brother, what did I do wrong..."

Silence.

A long silence.

Faced with his sister's question, Xu Xi shook his head: "You did nothing wrong."

"Then why did brother-"

"Mo Li."

Xu Xi interrupted the girl's questioning, his eyes closed slightly, as if he was recalling something: "Do you remember how long we lived together?"

The girl didn't understand why she suddenly asked such a question, but she still subconsciously answered: "Seventeen years."

Seventeen years.

This is the total time Xu Xi has simulated, and it is also the girl's own age.

"Yes, it has been seventeen years."

Xu Xi spoke softly, with a strong sense of fatigue in his voice, and a hoarse numbness that could not be ignored at all.

"When I first met you, you were still a newborn baby. In order to keep you alive, I had to use my last rations to exchange for some human milk from others."

"I was really hungry at that time..."

"But I still worry every day, afraid that you are unhappy, afraid that you are not warm enough, afraid that you are not full."

"You suddenly got sick when you were ten years old, and it took seven years until you were seventeen years old to be cured. I have been running around for seven years for your illness."

Xu Xi's voice was very calm, without complaints or blame.

It just revealed a bitter tiredness.

"Mo Li, if it weren't for you, my life could have been more exciting."

"I am also a human being, I also have my own dreams. I can't think of everything for you. I am not that great, do you know."

"You are seventeen years old, no longer a child."

"You should learn to take care of yourself and live independently!"

"I-"

"Tired."

The cave was filled with a depressing and dull atmosphere.

The light became dim and blurred.

The girl turned pale and her eyes were dull. She seemed to want to refute something, but in the end she could only say one sentence: "So, brother thinks Mo Li is a burden?"

"...Yeah."

She felt heavy, as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss, all her emotions were eaten away, and she could only run away in embarrassment.

Xu Mo Li choked and couldn't make a sound.

He ran fast.

He ran out of the cave.

Only Xu Xi, who had lost all his strength and collapsed on the wooden chair, was left without saying a word and lost consciousness for a long time.

People are indeed extremely contradictory creatures.

Xu Xi thought to himself.

He had prepared various excuses early on to destroy his relationship with his sister and erase the impression of a good brother in the girl's heart.

But when he really implemented it, he still felt uncomfortable and unbearable in his heart.

"It hurts so much... It hurts much more than when I burned my spiritual roots..."

Xu Xi covered his chest and muttered to himself: "But this way, the child can completely break away from my influence and live well in the world of immortal cultivation."

[Your words are extremely sharp, like a sharp sword, piercing and tearing the girl's heart apart]

[She ran out alone for a long time]

[Crying alone, wiping away tears in sadness, alone in a deserted corner, forcing myself to comfort myself in the most pitiful, aggrieved and lonely posture]

[When Xu Moli came back, her expression had become much colder, her eyes looking at you were no longer as respectful as before, and she no longer complained about your training]

【Your heart is hurting, your heart is happy】

[After this incident, the girl's will has become much stronger. While you were sighing, you pretended to cover your mouth casually, so that the girl could not see the blood you coughed up.]

[You wholeheartedly assisted the girl in her cultivation, and your high-intensity mental concentration made your body collapse faster. One morning in the eighteenth year of travel, you found yourself becoming more and more powerless]

【You know, it's time for you to leave】

[Although I feel very reluctant to give up, and although I still want to witness the girl’s growth, if you continue to stay in Tianjian Sect, sooner or later the girl will discover the truth about you.]

[You chose to leave without saying goodbye, and left Tianjian Sect alone in a flying boat, breaking through the wind and clouds all the way to a place far away from the world of immortality]

【Where should we go next? 】

【You are confused】

[In the past eighteen years, your goals have always been to cultivate immortality and take care of your sister, but now, you cannot continue with these two goals]

[You thought for a long time and decided to return to the former Black Rock City and spend the rest of your time alone]

[The world of immortal cultivation is huge, with countless mortal dynasties, and there are as many places for enjoyment as stars, but for you, none of them are as familiar and comfortable as Blackstone City. After all, this place condenses the five years of memories between you and the girl]

call--

The flying boat fell from the sky.

Without anyone noticing.

Quietly, the young man with no cultivation or spiritual roots moved into the old wooden house with a wooden sword.

A person lives alone, waiting quietly for death.

period.

Neighbors who still remembered the young man greeted him, and the young man responded one by one.

When asked why he didn't see the girl, he smiled and avoided talking.
