SPARETT .. BRUUKK!!!
“Damn it! Who is it?!” his jolt.
A teenage boy is focused on practicing his sword skills on a slippery chunk of ice. However, suddenly his focus was disturbed because someone passed him a stone and hit his waist. Surprised, he failed to adjust his balance until he fell below the surface of the snow-covered ground.
From behind the fir tree, came out a teenager carrying a stone in his hand. The teenager smiled at the other teenager who was thrown with a stone held in his other hand. Without the slightest bit of guilt, he approached the fallen teenager while extending his hand to give him help.
For a moment the fallen teenager stared at his hand. He was a little offended that his training was being interrupted and made him fall silly. However, he forgot about it as he grabbed his friend's hand and got up from his position.
“Practice and practice every day. Uh, Wuxian, aren't you tired of being a sword slave every day?” his protest.
“Not your business. And also, I am not a slave to the sword, but it is the sword that I control,” Wuxian replied.
5 Years have passed. Wuxian is now 17 years old. He grows up to be a tough, tireless teenage boy, though the oppression he receives from his seniors never changes. However, Wuxian will not give up even though for 5 years his skills have never improved like other children whose abilities improved greatly.
Several times Wuxian was reminded of Huang Chao, a 15-year-old teenager who went through many obstacles to finally make it to the Qing Long sect along with him. Huang Chao is 20 years old. Wuxian guessed, Huang Chao must have been a great swordsman who had high cultivation and martial arts. Hmmm .. Wuxian did not need to guess, because based on the rumors circulating, Huang Chao had become a member of the sect's disciplinary stewardship.
Compared to Wuxian who until now remained a servant of the sect who every day did menial work to serve the teachers and talented disciples of Qing Long sect. Wuxian thought that Huang Chao might have forgotten about Wuxian because even Huang Chao never came to visit him.
‘Of course. Anyway, why remember an outcast like me? Making friends with me will only make her feel ashamed.’
“Wuxian, Wuxian!!!” sentak Liu Wei's.
“Ah? K-why?” stuttered.
“What are you daydreaming about? Did you enter a spirit?” chirps Liu Wei.
“Internally!” wuxian timpal.
“You? When did you talk?” ask Wuxian in a daze.
“I've guessed. You must have been drifting into the clouds there. Stop huzzing and come with me!” liu Wei's Order.
Without saying much, Liu Wei blocked Wuxian's wrist while pulling it. However, Wuxian deliberately held her body in position. As Wuxian did not budge in the least, Liu Wei was forced to stop his steps.
He turned around and said to Wuxian, “What's wrong? Don't you want to come?” asked Liu Wei.
“I'll come if you tell me why I should come. If there is no important thing to do, I will stay here and practice the sword again,” reject Wuxian.
“Unfortunately, it's not you who decides. Wuxian, stop practicing. Every day I see you practicing too much. Then ... What do you get? Did you manage to cast a single spell? No, you've always failed so far. You failed to master a single magic. Wuxian, we have been branded as children who have no martial talent. No matter how hard we try, destiny has followed us from birth. As a friend, I have no right to order you to surrender. All this time I've been encouraging you, but the more you've been tight, the more you've got scars on your body. I'll give you a suggestion, stop. I will also stop practicing from now on. My tone gets messy every time I force myself to practice cultivation. Aren't you? Wuxian, I know how you feel even if you don't say it. Every night you must endure the pain that cuts him apart. I saw you with my own eyes. Don't think I'm the one who's been quiet all this time don't know if you're in pain every night.” Liu Wei gave Wuxian a lengthy piece of advice.
Wuxian was speechless as he listened to Liu Wei's advice. He greatly appreciated the advice Liu Wei had given him. Unfortunately, the advice from Liu Wei did not shake Wuxian's resolve at all.
As many say, Wuxian was a stubborn child whose stance was very difficult to change. In fact, some of the seniors who worked on it were sometimes tired because Wuxian did not show the slightest weak attitude in front of them.
Wuxian skin is already insensitive to pain. That is why, the body of 17-year-old Wuxian currently has many sword incision scars since he trained tirelessly for 5 years. However, not being able to feel pain was not because his body was completely immune.
Not being able to feel pain in the skin does not mean that the nerves of his body cannot feel pain. Wuxian's heart nerves often felt unbearable pain as the essence in his body fought back as Wuxian forced himself to cultivate cultivation. That's what makes Wuxian suffer from pain and can't sleep well every night.
From the beginning, the teachers and Run Yu the sect leader had reminded Wuxian not to exert himself, as doing so could adversely affect his physical health. Unfortunately, the stoic Wuxian never believed that he could not train cultivation. If someone else can do it, why shouldn't he?
He never forgets that there is also a destiny that can be changed with effort and hard work. He believes that the effort and hard work he has done so far will pay off. If not now, maybe someday. He did not want to regret wasting his life just because of what people said to him.
“Liu Wei, if you were my friend, I bet you would know me. Surrender? That word is not in my dictionary. We cannot choose the destiny that has been set for us since birth. However, I will try harder so that fate will ultimately choose me,” said Wuxian.
“Huftt ..” Liu Wei sighed. “Before I say all that, I have guessed what answer I will hear from you. Giving advice to you is as difficult as melting a block of ice with breath,” Liu Wei chirped.
