The Sun rose as usual and the town of Peach Blossom looked just like it did yesterday.
The only difference was that the town now had a shop that asked questions.
Towards this shop, everyone in Peach Blossom hated it. There were so many treasures, yet they couldn't get their hands on them. Naturally, it was infuriating.
Xiao Ye was the same.
Ever since she was hired by Ling Xian, her life has been a mixture of pain and happiness.
Happiness was because she could see handsome men. Pain was because she felt sorry for the treasures that she could get just by answering the questions.
Every time she thought about how these treasures could be taken away, her heart bled. But since nobody took them away, she felt a little disappointed.
These days of conflict made Xiao Ye's heart ache. Especially after seeing Ling Xian getting more and more depressed, her heart was twisting like a fried dough twist.
"I really don't understand the world of a cold man."
Xiao Ye pouted and turned around to look at Ling Xian, who was watching the falling peach blossoms and his face was full of sadness. She couldn't help but to sigh.
Coldness and squandering, this man was hopeless!
She was sighing. Ling Xian was sighing as well.
The impact this time was far too great. It was the biggest setback he had ever experienced and it was enough to completely destroy his belief.
Therefore, Ling Xian's heart was dead and his belief was about to crumble.
He felt like the road before him was endless and hopeless. He was truly falling into an endless abyss and all he could see was hopelessness.
Therefore, he thought of death. Only then could he be free and not be bothered by hopelessness.
However, someone didn't want him to die.
For the past few days, whenever it was quiet at night, that magical flute tune would always enter his ears and nourish his body.
Although it would stop after a short while, the cycle would never stop.
This song was also very mysterious and contained a large amount of vitality. It healed the wounds he suffered from failure after failure.
Sadly, his wounds could be healed, but his heart could not be healed.
Ling Xian was annoyed by this song at night. But since it had good intentions, he was too lazy to care. He didn't stop it and he didn't thank it.
Of course, at the end of the day, it was because he didn't want to die.
But if he didn't die, it was torture.
He was tormented by hopelessness and he couldn't find a way out.
"What is life?"
"What is the universe?"
"What is Heaven's Path?"
Ling Xian looked up at the sky. Questions that sounded profound but were actually idiotic came out of his mouth.
This gave Xiao Ye a new definition of him after being cold and arrogant.
Crazy!
"Heh, an unsolvable problem."
Snickering, Ling Xian shifted his gaze towards Xiao Ye and said coldly, "Take me out for a walk."
"What?"
Xiao Ye froze. This was the first time in two months that she heard of Ling Xian going out for a walk. Naturally, she was surprised.
But very quickly, she reacted and smiled sweetly, "Okay."
Then, she ran behind Ling Xian and pushed his wheelchair out of the shop.
It was currently spring, and Peach Blossom Town lived up to its reputation. Peach blossoms were blooming all over the place, the scene too beautiful to behold.
Passersby always stared at the peach blossoms. But when Ling Xian came out, he immediately covered the peach blossoms and attracted everyone's attention.
Firstly, the unreasonable rules of the Wen Dao Shop gave him a sense of mystery. Secondly, his temperament was too outstanding.
Even though he was lifeless right now, he was still the brightest color in the world. Everyone couldn't help but to stare at him.
"He is the owner of the Wen Dao Shop? No wonder he never comes out. He is a handicap. "
"I thought he was some almighty elder, but he is just a handicap."
"I had high hopes, but … I am so disappointed."
The passersby all chimed in with pity. Many people's eyes were shining with ill intentions.
This made Xiao Ye furious. She wanted to open her mouth and scold everyone. However, Ling Xian stopped her.
"Whatever."
Ling Xian's expression was emotionless. Right now, all he could think about was how to become Heaven's Path. Why would he care about others pointing at him?
"Hmmph!"
Xiao Ye glared at everyone and pushed Ling Xian forward.
Along the way, people would laugh and no longer have high hopes for Ling Xian. Instead, they labeled him as a handicap.
He pretended he didn't see this.
Staring at the falling petals, his lips moved and he uttered out one question after another.
"Why am I alive?"
"Why can't I transform into Heaven and Earth?"
"Where did I go wrong? I can!"
Ling Xian mumbled to himself. The more he spoke, the more hurried he became. In the end, his head was splitting and he was going crazy.
This made Xiao Ye sad. In the past two months, she has seen Ling Xian like this more than once. Yet she was powerless.
When the passersby saw this scene, they all sneered and added another definition of him.
Crazy.
What kind of questions are you talking about? Why can't he turn into Heaven and Earth?
What a joke!
How can a human turn into Heaven and Earth? Be careful that God doesn't strike you down!
Everyone laughed and ignored Ling Xian, this crazy person.
"Why, why is this happening!"
Ling Xian's black hair puffed up as he screamed into the sky. His crazy and helpless look made Xiao Ye's heart wrench.
After a while, he finally calmed down, as a pitiful smile appeared on his pale face.
"This path is blocked. This life … is hopeless."
Mumbling, Ling Xian closed his eyes in pain, "Let's go back."
"Yes."
Xiao Ye's eyes were red. She suppressed her sadness and pushed the wheelchair back to the backyard.
Then, Ling Xian waved his hand to signal for her to leave. He stared at the sky full of flower petals and fell into a daze.
Time passed by little by little. In the blink of an eye, the sky changed from sunrise to moonlight.
As usual, the melodious flute music began to play. It was soft, slow, and intoxicating.
Ling Xian listened quietly. He didn't stop it nor did he thank it. He allowed the energy to nourish his body.
Suddenly, he frowned. He sensed two different breaths.
Though his legs were crippled and his heart was dead, his capabilities were still there. Naturally, he sensed the arrival of the uninvited guests.
They came in the middle of the night. It was obvious that they were here for the valuable treasures.
Ling Xian didn't stop them. If they wanted to take it, then take it. He had already decided to die, why would he care about these worldly possessions?
Therefore, he turned a blind eye and allowed the thieves to take away the two treasures.
What he didn't think was that his one act of indulgence would cause the entire Peach Blossom Town to boil.
Everyone thought Ling Xian was a coward and didn't dare to speak up. Therefore, other than crippled and crazy, he had another name.
Trash!
This infuriated Xiao Ye, but Ling Xian was unmoved.
So what if he was trash? He was trash anyway.
Ling Xian bitterly smiled. Sometimes, he would stare blankly and sometimes, he would go crazy. It was obvious that he was a handicapped person.
This made the people of Peach Blossom Town more and more presumptuous. Under broad daylight, they openly tried to rob him!
"A bunch of shameless bandits, I'll kill you all!"
Xiao Ye's lungs were about to explode from anger. Ignoring the huge gap in capabilities, he rushed up and fought. The result was that he was heavily injured.
This made the bandits even more arrogant. They were even more certain that Ling Xian was trash.
He had been bullied to this extent and yet he didn't even dare to make a sound. If he wasn't trash, then what was he?
After everyone took all the treasures, Ling Xian was finally enraged.
