Chapter 728
The female cultivator once again stared at the ceiling in a daze. It was as if there was a staircase that led to heaven there, and she was only one step away from touching it.
Tang Zhen’s eyes flickered. For the first time, he carefully sized up the foreign female cultivator in front of him.
In fact, she wasn’t too old. She was pretty, had a graceful figure, and was full of vitality.
Near the closed vertical pupils on her forehead, there were red tattoos like wings covering her smooth forehead, looking very lifelike.
However, her eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, as if they were filled with deep resentment and frustration, as if there was no life in them!
Tang Zhen didn’t know what she had experienced to have given up on herself like this. She had even reached the point of committing suicide?
For some unknown reason, Tang Zhen’s heart suddenly felt a trace of emotion. He looked at the female cultivator and softly sighed,”In life, how can you do everything as you please? it’s good to have a choice, but it’s normal to have no choice.
Whether he went with the flow or fought hard, as long as he followed his heart, at least he would not leave behind too much regret and regret.
I know you’re feeling conflicted. You want to get rid of your original life, but you’re also reluctant to leave. That’s why you gave up on yourself and waited for me to make a choice for you.
Whether you live or die, leave everything to fate, right?”
Tang Zhen coldly laughed when he spoke up to this point. He used an emotionless tone and said,”Don’t worry, I won’t stop you if you want to die. If you want to live, I’ll give you a chance.
Even if you want to abandon your current identity and live a peaceful life like an ordinary person, I can satisfy you.
As for what you should do, that will depend on your choice!”
The female cultivator’s body slightly trembled. She slowly raised her head and looked at Tang Zhen. After being silent for a while, she muttered,”Do you know that I’ve never experienced a Day of Happiness since I was young?
During a battle to invade a foreign world, my parents never returned, leaving me and my brother to rely on each other.
In the end, not many years later, my brother also fell on the battlefield in the other world, and I was the only one left in the family.
At that time, I was all alone. I would cry secretly every night until I was tired from crying, then I would choke and go to sleep.
You’ll never understand how desperate I felt at that time. It was as if the whole world had abandoned me, and my life had become dark.
When I grew up, I confirmed that I had a talent for cultivation. So, like my parents and brother, I also became a cultivator of Lou Cheng.
In the days that followed, the only things that accompanied me were cultivation, competition, blood, death, and corpses.
I felt like a machine, emotionless, with no one to care about me. I repeated the days that made me go crazy every day.
I knew that one day, I would also step onto the battlefield of the other world, and then, like my family, I would rest in the ruins of the strange other world, never to return.”
The female cultivator’s face was covered in tears as she buried her head between her knees and her shoulders trembled.
As she sobbed, she said, ” those friends who were with me since I was young, and those who helped me in the past, have all left me. They have died in various battles.
When I was sleeping, I would often wake up from my dreams, and then I would find that my face was already covered in tears.
It was because I realized that I could no longer remember their faces. Even their names were gradually starting to fade away, leaving only a vague outline.
I wonder if there will still be people who remember me after I die, or if I’ll be completely forgotten by everyone?”
At this point, the female cultivator suddenly raised her head and a trace of determination flashed through her eyes.
“In fact, I already have the answer to the question just now. I just didn’t dare to admit it.
As cultivators of loucheng, they had no right to choose. They could only spend their lives with swords and blood and die on the battlefield one day!
What was the point of such a life? What is the purpose of our actions?
Is it so that the next generation will be like us, repeating this detestable killing and plundering?”
The female cultivator’s voice suddenly rose as if the suppressed fire in her heart had suddenly erupted.
“Ever since I first participated in the battle of invading a foreign world, I’ve developed a deep disgust for this kind of life. However, being in it, I’m unable to escape or resist.
So I can only keep telling myself that this is my mission. For Lou Cheng’s power, I have to do this!”
“But I also know that I’m just deceiving myself!
as time went on, I couldn’t stand this kind of life anymore. At the same time, the idea of escaping this kind of life emerged in my heart.
However, even though the world of loucheng is huge, where can i escape to?
Even if he did escape to another place, what’s the difference between those places?”
At this point, a smile suddenly appeared on the female cultivator’s face. She looked at the empty wall, but her eyes were unfocused. She was obviously in a state of reminiscence.
“It wasn’t until I came here and met my dormitory sisters that I realized how beautiful life was!
Do you know? I’ve been very happy these days. I don’t have to think about those things related to killing every day, and I’ve been sleeping very soundly.
I’m afraid of losing such a life, so I can only pray in my heart, hoping that this life will never end.”
With a bitter smile, the female cultivator suddenly lay on her side on the ground, her slender body curled up like a frightened kitten, and her eyes looked straight at the ground.
“The facts have proven that I have deceived myself again. My identity does not allow me to enjoy this kind of life. Killing and being killed is my ultimate fate!
However, I don’t regret it this time, because everything I’ve experienced these days is completely different from my previous life.
It made me truly feel that I wasn’t just a shell, but that I could also pass every day with a smile.
If I had a choice, I would rather use everything I have in exchange for a year’s time here, and then happily do all the things I want to do.
Even if I have to pay the price with my life, I will have no regrets!”
The female cultivator’s voice became weaker and weaker as she spoke, and her face turned pale.
A trace of blood seeped out from the corner of her mouth. The color was as black as ink. In contrast to her white skin and purple lips, it seemed to give people an extremely demonic and poignant feeling.
She lay on the ground like this and smiled as she looked at Tang Zhen. She was like a flower that was about to wither and bloom the last trace of beauty in the cold frost.
Even when the light in her eyes had completely disappeared, the smile on her lips was still blooming, and it was forever frozen.
