Chapter 59.1: All Seeing Soul Tracing Mirror
Qing Bei just looked at her at in daze.
In the few days that she disappeared, it seemed like the aura from the young lady"s body had become more profound and deep, and right in that instant, it felt as if she was giving him an exceptionally strict lesson that was forcing him to have to grow.
"Sis….." His eyes, then showed a sense of unfamiliarity and confusion.
"Little Bei, it"s time to grow up." Qing Yu sat herself down beside him. Looking at that innocent expression on her face, although she could not bear to, she still said softly: "Back when I was just about your age, I had already a.s.sumed the position as the head of a family clan. No matter how many people were unable to accept a little young girl like me as the head, I was more powerful than them, and they were fearful of me, not daring to utter a word of complaint."
The youth was a little surprised, as this was the first time that he was hearing her speak of her past to him.
"What were you like in the past?" Qing Bei was suddenly highly curious.
Hearing that, Qing Yu merely smiled faintly. "The me in the past….." Her words paused, seemingly thinking back to times long past. "Was a cold and heartless walking corpse who knew nothing but to cultivate, where there was only one thing in my mind, which was to become stronger."
"Didn"t you have any family kin?"
"Family? I did." Qing Yu lowered her eyes, the ends of her mouth lifting up slightly. "But when placed before authouritative power, kinship is something one can choose to do with or without. Since the beginning of time, there has been no lack of examples of infighting where many have killed their own people."
Though she was speaking of it so lightly now, but when it happened to her, she had not been able to accept it at all.
That was why in her previous life, she had chosen death.
At least she could deceive herself, that from beginning till the end, all those beautiful memories in the past had all been real.
Qing Yu gathered back her mind that had drifted a far way off, to then turn to the youth with a smile. "Do you remember when we met for the first time?"
They were twins and they had been living beside each other since they were born. So when she said the first time they met…..
"You were still so young then, but you were already able to choose to face death for your sister"s sake. There was bright shining hope in you and you deserve a better life. That was why I chose to save you."
After having lived to see her brother who was her closest kin turn maniacal against her because of money and power in his quest to climb higher, Qing Yu no longer trusted anyone.
If even blood ties and kinship could be abandoned so completely, then what else was there in the world that would stay true?
From being a kind and innocent young girl, she had grown up in an instant. She was clearly at an age where she should be most lively and p.r.o.ne to laughter but she turned to become matured and steady, like she had already lived through much of the vicissitudes of life.
She could choose to give up everything and to not depend on anything or anyone. If holding all this power and authourity would make the people at her side betray her, then she would rather be the one standing at the highest point, where everyone else could only to look up to her.
This youth here was just like she was back then, innocent and like a clean sheet, the bloodshed and the cruelty of the outside world having not tainted that pair of crystal clear eyes in the slightest. But with him like this, protected under her wing, how big a change would he be faced with if the day came that she had to leave him?
She would never ever want to see such a thing happen.
The flawless and beautiful face of the young lady then came to be tinged with a look of sadness, which made one"s heart wince to see.
"Sis….." Qing Bei called out to her hesitant, and his hand then held hers gently. His tone determined and resolute, he said: "I will become strong and that day will not be too far off. No matter what kind of….. bad things you might have experienced in the past, you must believe me. We are the two closest people in this world, and we will never hurt each other. The day will come that you will stand right behind me, and I will be able to hold up this end of our world."
