A Journey Against the World
Chapter 163

"Tell me what happened, Tsakuya!" Zusami stared intently at the young man in front of her, very curious as to what had happened to the young man and the silver-haired girl earlier.

This was not just Zusami's feelings and guesses, but he felt that what he thought was indeed the reality. Ah ... Tsakuya, introduce him to the Three King races of Pheonix, Zusami's younger brother and Kie Lie. Zusami could not appreciate his current feelings, he was shocked, happy and angry.

Tsakuya rubbed his nose, he was sure that his conversation with Zusami would be very long considering that Zusami is the Big Brother who wants to know everything. Tsakuya looked at Zusami for a moment while looking for the beginning of what kind of topic she would use. Tsakuya is not the type who is good at telling things, especially about current events.

"In short I met him by accident, back then his soul was severely injured within the spirit world." Tsakuya began to explain. He took a breath and threw it away again. "I felt something unique from his spirit, so I helped him. And after that, I know everything."

A short explanation, right? Zusami alone is smart to frown because he does not fully understand the purpose of Tsakuya's words. "Spirit world? So you're saying he's out of his original body?" Zusami guessed that what he said should be true.

Tsakuya was silent for a moment then nodded making Zusami stunned in disbelief. "He was just a spirit that hitched a ride on someone else's body, and it just so happened that they had the same initials. I don't think I need to explain further, you should already know the condition."

"No!" Zusami. "I didn't know he was just a hitchhiking spirit. I can see his destiny, but I can't see his past." Zusami looked at Tsakuya. Now that his mind had gone awry, there were many strange and unique things that he did not know, especially about the current Shua Xie.

"It's natural, your abilities will be useless to someone like him. Did you forget who he was?" Tsakuya smiled faintly, her feet stepping near a tree that happened to be not far from them, so casually she leaned her back on the tree.

"Don't forget, you're just his subordinate, is it appropriate for a subordinate like you to investigate his past?" Tsakuya insists that Zusami must remember who she is and who she is investigating. Playing with the wrong people is not the right choice.

Zusami turned around, walking towards Tsakuya with a slightly panicked look on her face. "I know I transcend borders as a subordinate, but I haven't fully believed in humans yet. They are very selfish, naive and greedy creatures .. do you remember the events that befell the Heavenly world? All because of man."

"But he's a different human being, his status can't be considered ordinary." Tsakuya retorted, her eyes sharpening as Zusami's words disturbed her mood. "Then do you think only humans are selfish creatures? Why did a big war happen? Are you able to explain to me that we and the other races are a pure and clean race that has no human-like feelings of lust?" Tsakuya laughs sarcastically, insulting how high her brother's self-esteem is, even though his older brother could know better who is greediest.

Zusami fell silent again, Tsakuya's words so fiercely pierced his pride, especially his steadfastness about his views on humans. But even though he knew himself to be not as different as what he thought about humans, still he still had a hard time accepting the fact that he would become a subordinate of a human. Perhaps all this time he had always been kind to Shua Xie, but don't get me wrong, his good attitude wasn't because he was already open to humans, because he was interested in investigating Shua Xie's unusual identity.

"Tsakuya! I don't like humans, but that doesn't mean I didn't learn to be open to them." The glare of those clingy and stressed eyes made Tsakuya sniff cynically. "I already knew that he would be my destroyer. But there's still one thing I'm so curious about, who exactly is that girl? Why could he hold such a great destiny? Why should we all submit to him? That's my question. I want to know everything.

Silent!

The atmosphere was suddenly silent as the two of them could not answer that simple question. Who is Shua Xie? Let alone Zusami who continued to question him, Tsakuya also had the same question when she realized the privilege of Shua Xie.

"However compared to that, I'm more curious what has happened between the two of you? Why did Shua Xie meet you? And why did he come back with a different appearance."

Yes, maybe Zusami is curious about Shua Xie's true identity. But now she was more curious as to why Shua Xie could end up with her sister Tsakuya. You should know how surprised Zusami was to see Tsakuya appear before his eyes after hundreds of years they never met. Although Zusami was quite upset with his brothers, but he could not cover up his feelings that he missed his brothers so much.

Tsakuya sighed again. His gaze was straight staring at the desolate and silent forest. Tsakuya deliberately takes Zusami far enough away from Shua Xie so that the girl is more free to solve her problems with the other Shua Xie.

"It all starts with the spirit world."

"What is this?!" sahut to two confused twin girls.

"Wait a minute, could it be that you are Shua Xie the son of Empress Shu Hua?" Shua Xie pointed at his twin, he thought why there could be two Shua Xie because the real Shua Xie had not completely died, but rather his spirit was confined in this strange place.

"Yes, I am indeed the son of Empress Shu Hua. You're the one who's been disguised as me, right?! I saw you from this place, I saw you using my body. Why are you doing this to?!"

"Why did you take my body! You shouldn't have taken my body! I've been patient enough with their torture, haven't you guys been satisfied enough to see me suffer? You separated me from my mother, and now you separate me from my own body?! Why?!"

"What are you talking about! Do you think I intentionally snatched all of yours?!" Shua Xie snapped back, not accepting the accusation of her twin girl. Since when did he try to snatch someone else's property? He was not that greedy a human being, nor did he ever expect to come to this world. If it wasn't for someone she didn't know bringing her into this world maybe now her life was much quieter and safer in her real world. At least he won't play with his own life.

"Yes! You took it from me! You took my father! You took all my positions!" reply the girl did not lose out hard. Honestly speaking he hated Shua Xie so much in front of him right now, if only that Shua Xie had not appeared it was possible that he would not have ended up in this place. Maybe he could be happy with his family, right?

Shua Xie gawked along with a small snort of disbelief. Can't believe the twin actually accused himself of scrambling for everything the girl had. "Miss you don't misunderstand me. I'm not gonna play rough with you because I appreciate your past and your body's service to let me live for these two years."

"Don't be hypocritical! You're all the same, you must have planned with them to take everything away from me."

Shua Xie chuckled, honestly she did not like this accusation where she was already trying to make the best for the girl to be acknowledged by everyone. But now, the girl had misunderstood him.

"As much as you want to say what, I don't care. But I need to say, your misunderstanding reminds me that we're the same. Equally selfish human." Shua Xie turned around intending to end it all without any problems. After all he also wanted to return immediately, afraid that Zusami and the others were looking for him. However ... Something shocking happened without Shua Xie noticing.

"Can't! You must give my life back to me! You can't do this to me! I've never done anything bad to you!" The girl had already dashed towards Shua Xie and had even hugged him so strongly, not willingly if Shua Xie went back to take his life.

"What are you doing! Unhand me! I don't want to be rude to you!" Shua Xie rebelled in the girl's arms, but out of nowhere the girl could get her strength, Shua Xie felt powerless from her.

"Give me my life back!!"

"Take me off! I don't want to be rude to you!"

"No will! You have to give me my life back!"

"Let go! I'm also trying to bring back life"

Not yet finished himself speaking, an object that felt sharp and cold had already pierced his back so deeply. Spontaneous Shua Xie turned to look at the girl with a look of disbelief, he did not know where the girl got the weapon from, but clearly the girl had already stabbed him so deeply. Shua Xie instantly fell to his knees, his eyes feeling dry, his heart beating even more. Blood did not come out of his wound, but the prickling was much more painful than the prickling in the real world.

"You? Heh! I'm too good to you." Shua Xie smiled sinisterly looking at the twin girl. His body lay helpless, his legs began to feel cold. Shua Xie did not regret or hate even though what made her like this was the girl, at least she could make the girl understand one thing. Never be kind to someone you have never met. And Shua Xie took a lesson from this incident. Because for the first time, he felt a great betrayal.

"You, you took my life! I just want my life again!" obviously the girl was stiff, between fear and shock seeing her own actions had injured Shua Xie.

Shua Xie smiled faintly. "Yes, live well .. and make sure we do not meet in any life. Because of me, I won't be kind to you anymore." After saying so, Shua Xie closed his eyes. Slowly his body was swallowed by the darkness and finally disappeared.

Now there lived the girl with various tastes in the dark room, she was happy to take back her life, she was happy to be able to repay them all, but on the other hand she was also afraid, shocked and saddened to have killed Shua Xie. Don't blame her, she also has no other choice, if she wants to go back then she must kill Shua Xie's spirit and take back her body.

The girl carved out a smile, as comfortable as she had never made it in her entire life. "So this is what it's like to kill? So this is what it's like to take revenge? It's so fun."
