"I was born in an ordinary family. My father was the Emperor of the Drifting Cloud Nation, and my mother was an ordinary concubine. When I was three years old, the elders of the palace measured my cultivation potential and found that I had no cultivation potential …"
Little Hong Ling looked up at the sky with her big watery eyes and said slowly, "I was supposed to be an ordinary princess who grew up in an ordinary way. When I was of the right age, I would get married and live an ordinary life …"
"But, something terrible happened …"
Little Hong Ling hugged his shoulders with his fair and tender arms and said slowly, "There's a mutation in my body. I won't grow up. I've been maintaining the appearance of a three or four year old."
An Lin looked at little Hong Ling's cute and petite appearance and asked curiously, "Why did this happen?"
Little Hong Ling shook her head lightly. "I don't know. My father asked many experts, and they all checked on me, but they didn't know why my body became like this … I can't cultivate, and if my body stays like this, I won't even have the chance to be an ordinary person."
"That was indeed the case. My relatives' children laughed at me, and my friends saw me as a freak. They bullied me, and kept their distance from me. Even the adults didn't treat me well. My childhood was dark, and there was no happiness at all …"
"Not long after, Drifting Cloud Nation was plagued by disasters. Some masters who were successful in cultivation even said that I was the source of the disasters in Drifting Cloud Nation. They said that it was because of me that the fate of the nation gradually dissipated, and they saw me as the scourge of the nation. Countless people wanted me dead, and they thought that everything would become better if I died."
"My father couldn't withstand the pressure from the officials and cultivators, and exiled me. Some people applauded me, and some even thought of ways to kill me … I was only eighteen that year …"
An Lin was stunned. He didn't expect this cute girl to have such a tragic life.
"At that time, my parents didn't want me, my relatives humiliated me, my friends kept their distance from me, and the world hated me. It was as if my existence in this world was a mistake, a cancer, and all this was because I couldn't grow up. Haha, what a joke … At such a young age, I had tasted the warmth and coldness of the world. I knew the reason for all this," little Hong Ling said calmly.
"What is it?" An Lin asked curiously.
Little Hong Ling stretched out her fair finger and pointed to the sky. "It's the damned God!"
An Lin: "…"
"I started cursing at the sky. This was the first time I've ever cursed a human … No, it's the heavens. I cursed the heavens for granting me a body that wouldn't grow up, cursed the heavens for being blind, cursed the heavens for messing with my fate, and cursed the heavens for doing all these evil things …"
As she spoke, little Hong Ling's face had already turned bright red. It was unknown whether it was due to her excitement or something else.
"Then, something strange happened. I cursed the heavens and felt a warm current appear in my body. It was very comfortable. Just like that, the more I scolded, the more excited I became. I don't know how many times I scolded, but I just scolded and scolded until I felt good. I felt so comfortable for the whole day … "
An Lin's mouth gaped open as he listened to Little Hong Ling's words. He didn't know what to say.
Would cursing the Heavens make you feel better? Look, is this even human speech? This was simply too inconceivable!
However, he soon discovered that something even more bizarre had happened. "Wasn't I exiled?" Little Hong Ling continued. "I was bullied by a lowly general at the border of the Flowing Cloud Nation. He punched and kicked me, and he even said that it was because of me that the nation was embroiled in wars and that even his family was killed by the enemy nation …
"My notoriety was known throughout the entire nation, and I became the symbol of evil. They had long since gotten used to pushing the blame onto me, saying that everything was Hong Ling's fault …
"However, on that day, I chose to resist. I don't know if it was because I scolded the heavens yesterday that gave me the courage, or if it was for some other reason, but in any case, I chose to resist!
"Then, what shocked everyone was that my strength became extraordinarily great, and I could even sense the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth. Every move I made could affect a large amount of Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth. That lowly general of the Eighth Stage Dao Body was beaten into a pig's head with just a few punches from me.
"Everyone else was also stunned. They couldn't believe that the little girl who was so weak just a few days ago could suddenly beat their lowly general to the ground. This was such a strong visual impact that even I was stunned. I immediately took this opportunity to escape from the Flowing Cloud Nation. I escaped from the place that brought me endless pain and nightmares.
"I escaped into a forest, and in order to confirm something, I continued to scold the heavens. Sure enough, every time I scolded the heavens, a warm current would appear in my body. When I woke up the next day, I discovered that my strength had increased again. Finally, I confirmed a fact, and that was that scolding the heavens could make one stronger! "
Little Hong Ling looked at the sky with a burning gaze.
An Lin sucked in a breath of cold air. He was shocked once again.
He had seen countless strange people, but this was the first time he had seen someone who could become stronger by scolding the heavens. This level of strangeness could even crush all the strange existences he had seen in his life!
"Just like that, I began my cultivation journey of scolding the heavens. That was the happiest period of my life. It was as if I had a goal in my life. For the first time, I didn't feel like I was an orphan abandoned by the world.
"This method of becoming stronger has its flaws. The higher the cultivation base, the harder it is to improve. You have to change your ways of scolding the heavens. For example, scolding the heavens when the weather is terrible! For example, scolding the heavens when the breakfast is terrible! For example, scolding the heavens when the drought comes! For example, scolding the heavens when the entire family is massacred!! "
An Lin's lips twitched uncontrollably. What kind of cultivation method was this?
He really wanted to ask Hong Ling if she thought he was an idiot. However, looking at the serious expression on the little girl's face, he didn't think that she was lying …
In that case, either he had gone crazy, or the heavens had gone crazy!
An Lin wanted to scold the heavens! The heavens were so unfair. Why could others cultivate like this?!
If Xue Zhantian obtained little Hong Ling's cultivation ability, wouldn't he become a true sun?!
Was the heavens a masochist or something? Why would they bestow cultivation bases to others after being scolded?
"Just like that, I cultivated for a hundred years through scolding the heavens. Then, I entered the Return to Void Stage that countless cultivators yearned for, and I became the renowned Exalted Immortal Hong Ling.
"After a while, the Imperial Family of the Flowing Cloud Nation suddenly contacted me. They begged me to go back and save that nation that was about to be destroyed. It turned out that that nation had been invaded by two extremely ferocious Return to Void Stage beasts. The nation was too weak to defend itself, and they had no choice but to ask me for help."
A self-deprecating smile suddenly appeared on little Hong Ling's face. "Don't you think it's funny? Back then, from the Imperial Family to the common people, everyone was scolding me. They all wanted me dead and viewed me as the God of Plague. They exiled me for thousands of kilometers and tortured me. If I didn't obtain power, I would have died a long time ago. How could they have the cheek to ask me for help? Do they really think that I, Hong Ling, am a saint?! "
"Then, what did you do?" An Lin asked.
"I …" Little Hong Ling pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "I went to the Flowing Cloud Nation and slew those two Return to Void Stage beasts …"
An Lin fell silent.
"I slew two ferocious beasts, and the people of that nation all called me their savior. They called me the blessing of the nation, and some even knelt down and worshipped me …" Little Hong Ling smiled. "I stood in the Imperial Palace, and everyone liked me, respected me, and praised me. They all had smiles on their faces, and those smiles were sincere and not fake …
"Back then, they hated me, insulted me, tortured me, and chased me away just because I was too young to grow up … Now, I am still the same, but they are different. I can't tell what I was feeling at that time. I wasn't sad, nor was I happy. I just felt that it was ridiculous, as if something was blocking my heart …
"I didn't know what to do. Then, I cursed the heavens in front of tens of thousands of people …
"Can you imagine the scene of me cursing the heavens in front of so many people? Their expressions were very interesting, as if my image had been subverted once again. However, I didn't care.
"Then, I broke through on the spot, comprehended the divine dao, and advanced to the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage."
An Lin: "…"
