"Grandfather, this big brother, he …?"
Ye Xuan's words were too harsh, without a shred of humanity. This caused the smile on the little girl's face to vanish. She looked at Ye Xuan with fear because she had never seen someone as unreasonable as Ye Xuan.
"Good girl, Zhuo Ma!"
The old man rubbed the little girl's hair as if he was trying to calm her down. He then looked at Ye Xuan kindly and said, "Little brother, your temperament is too extreme. There are actually far too many beautiful things in this world. If you can view this world with a normal heart, you will definitely discover many beautiful things."
"Beautiful things?"
Ye Xuan slowly stood up. He gazed at the sky through the window as a gloomy light flashed through his eyes.
"The strong prey on the weak, and only the fittest survive. This is the iron law of the world. If you're weak, you deserve to die. Only the strong can control the fate of the weak. This principle has never changed. The so-called kind and benevolent heart is an extremely useless thing. It's only synonymous with the weak."
The atmosphere was oppressive, as heavy as a mountain. When Ye Xuan finished speaking, he slowly turned to look at the old man and said with a deep voice, "Elder, am I wrong?"
This was the gaze Ye Xuan used to look at the old man. There wasn't any emotion in it at all. It was as if Ye Xuan was looking at the old man as if he was looking at an ant.
"Haha!"
Suddenly, the old man laughed aloud. He did not feel Ye Xuan's emotionless gaze at all. He met Ye Xuan's gaze without any fear and said with a hoarse voice, "Little brother, humans are humans because they are different from animals. Humans have their own feelings, and they have their own desires. We can cry, we can laugh, we can be sad, and we can be happy. If it's really as you say, that humans have abandoned their so-called kind and benevolent hearts, then how are we any different from animals?"
The old man's voice was sonorous and powerful, and a touch of humanity blossomed from his body. When he finished speaking, an unimaginable aura covered the sky and covered the earth, causing Ye Xuan to be stunned on the spot.
The old man was not a Tongtian almighty. He was just a mortal, an ordinary old man who was about to be buried in the earth. However, when he finished speaking, it seemed to have caused some kind of resonance. It even contained an unimaginable aura. Even with Ye Xuan's peak Grand Heavenly Realm cultivation, his soul trembled to the extreme at this moment.
Human Dao and all living beings could not be stopped by the heavens!
As long as their spirit was not destroyed, they could live forever. Even if the Heavenly Dao collapsed, their spirit would never be destroyed. Humans were human because they had both good and evil sides. Although they were extremely contradictory creatures, it was also because of the existence of humans that the world was able to display a magnificent scene of mountains and rivers throughout the ages.
Although the old man did not understand this principle, the aura he displayed now represented all living beings of the Human Dao. Even though Ye Xuan was at the peak of the Grand Heavenly Realm, his soul trembled slightly in the face of this indescribable living beings of the Human Dao.
"Little brother, although this old man does not know what happened to you that caused your temperament to become so extreme, this old man hopes that you can understand that whether it is immortals or gods, they are all made of humans. If even the most basic human heart has been lost, then can he still be called a human?"
The old man had the radiance of humanity and a kind of awe-inspiring righteousness.
Of course, the so-called awe-inspiring righteousness did not refer to a kind of righteous aura, but a kind of fearless and magnanimous aura.
"Establishing a heart for the world, establishing a life for the people, inheriting the lost knowledge for the past saints, and establishing peace for all ages. The reason why humans are human is that we have a human heart that animals do not have. If everyone thinks like you, little brother, then this world will no longer exist." The old man's aura was like a rainbow, and his voice was resolute and decisive.
"Human heart?"
After a long time, Ye Xuan murmured with a trembling voice. He slowly raised his hands and constantly scrutinized them. The smell of blood surged into his mouth and nose, and images flashed through his mind, causing his thoughts to drift as if they were bringing him back to the distant past.
In his childhood.
The world was cold, and snow danced wildly.
When Ye Xuan was still a child, he and his mother were chased out of the Ye Family. He looked at the Ye Family's door with hatred in his eyes, and swore to the heavens in his young and hateful heart.
If Ye Xuan was able to shake the world one day, he would seek justice for his mother from the Ye Family. He would personally destroy the Ye Family, and he would make his so-called father and grandfather kneel and repent to him and his mother.
The snowstorm that year was very strong, and the temperature was very cold. It even froze his young and tender heart, causing him to be unable to feel a trace of warmth in the human world.
In his youth!
Young and hot-blooded, that beautiful figure appeared in front of Ye Xuan. That year, they were innocent playmates. That year, they were childhood sweethearts. A crack appeared in Ye Xuan's frozen heart, and he was filled with longing for the future.
Unfortunately, when he reached the age of fourteen, the heavens played a big joke on him. A grievous news caused him to be consigned to eternal damnation.
He was diagnosed with an incurable disease. His so-called childhood sweetheart vanished into thin air. The so-called innocent playmates were nothing more than a joke. When he fell ill on his bed and watched his beloved girl gradually disappear, Ye Xuan's heart that had just warmed up was once again wrapped in ice.
That year, he left behind a letter and left. In a muddle-headed state, he entered Heartbreak Mountain. He started a new life, and under Yuan Ling's cruel and merciless guidance, he fought and bathed in blood in the Blood Sea Battlefield.
The so-called innocence no longer existed. The so-called benevolence and kindness were abandoned by him. He completely turned into a heartless person, and he firmly believed in the supreme principle of human nature being evil.
After four years of life in the Blood Sea Battlefield, he finally walked out of the Blood Sea Battlefield and became a Tribulation Passing Stage cultivator. However, his longing for his former loved ones made him return to the Boundless Secular World.
In the confusion of the human world, in the slaughter of the mortal world, Ye Xuan walked step by step, leaving behind an endless pile of corpses. He even personally strangled the love of his past, gradually turning into a person he believed to be.
There was no time in cultivation. Looking back on 20,000 years!
20,000 years had passed. The people and things of the past were all buried in the depths of his heart. However, today, the old man's words unlocked his dusty memories, and also caused Ye Xuan to fall into a daze.
"The heart of slaughter, the heartless heart, the fearless heart … but … where is my heart?"
Ye Xuan slowly closed his eyes and murmured. A wave of dizziness continuously attacked his soul, causing his heart to feel like it was being torn apart.
"Carp? Braised carp? "
Suddenly, Ye Xuan saw the dish on the table. His eyes gradually focused, and the image of a person appeared in his eyes. It was the image of the loving mother that was sealed in the depths of his memory.
