Chapter 23: You are bound to meet a few scums in your life (1)

Xuan Lin went out of the town with Niu Niu in his arms. He went towards a small road, deliberately avoiding the crowd. His destination didn’t seem to be fixed either, he was just wandering aimlessly. When some people accidentally came in front of him, he would subconsciously dodge and continue on his way.

He walked for about half an hour before stopping at the edge of a very remote forest. Looking left and right to make sure no one was there, he put Niu Niu down under a big tree. He seemed to be explaining something to her and was about to leave, but stopped when Niu Niu grabbed his sleeve. Tears were hanging on her lashes, but Xuan Lin simply frowned, pulled his sleeve from her grasp and turned away. When Niu Niu tried to follow him, he huffed and seemed to scold her before turning towards the city again.

The whole scenario played in front of Shi Xia made her so angry that she couldn’t help but fume. The fire in her heart burned fiercely as the urge to punch the brainless teenager became strong. She immediately came out of her hiding place and stood in front of Xuan Lin who was walking back to the city. With a scowl on her face, she asked, “Where do you think you are going?”

“Eh …… benefactor ……,” Xuan Lin was surprised to see her suddenly jumping out in front of him. His face turned immediately white, he tried to explain everything with a stiff and ugly smile. “You …… why are you here? I …… I just ……”

“You want to throw Niu Niu away?”

Xuan Lin’s face became even whiter, his eyes began to dodge around, and his smile became more and more stiff, “That… benefactor, you misunderstood, how could I throw her away? I just …… just …… right, I just want to go and buy her some food.”

Shi Xia glanced at the buns he had bought just now in his hand. Seeing her glancing at his hand, Xuan Lin tightened his grip and hid it behind his back when he heard Shi Xia speaking, “Before I met her, you also deliberately threw her away, right?”

“……” He didn’t answer, but his face slowly darkened.

“Xuan Lin, she is your sister!” How can you be so cruel.

Xuan Lin’s face instantly twisted up, the face that was torn apart by the anxiety and panic turned to annoyed and angry, “sister, so what? If she hadn’t dragged me down, I would have entered the Immortal Sect long ago. In the past six months, several times I was about to find the Immortal Gate, but I missed every time because of her, she is just a burden.”

“Because of this, you want to throw away your own sister?” Shi Xia was also on fire.

“Yes!” Xuan Lin said with an angry face, “I just want to get rid of her. I’ve had enough of this for the past six months. I have to carry her on my back when I walk because she can’t walk fast. I’m simply sick of it! Not to mention, I don’t have much money on me to support the both of us. If she continues to drag me down, we’ll both starve to death.”

Shi Xia was so shocked and angry that she couldn’t seem to recognize the person in front of her. Was he the good brother who was scared for his sister six months ago? How could he become so cold-blooded after only half a year?

“Is it really that important to cultivate immortality? So important that you can even abandon your sister, who is connected to you by blood?”

“Don’t joke around.” He snorted coldly, “Who in this world doesn’t want to live forever?”

“But do you know how dangerous the forest is and how many demonic beasts are inside? If you leave her here now, she will die.”

“It’s better if she just died!” Xuan Lin carelessly waved his hand, “Instead of living and dragging me down, it’s better for her to die for me.”

“Bullshit!” Shi Xia finally couldn’t resist punching him, “Are you still human? Don’t you know how much she cares about you as a brother? Just because you want to cultivate immortality, she has suffered so much while following you. She was almost eaten by demonic beasts. Are you blind? Can’t you see? If you want to talk about dragging down, it was you who dragged her in this path, not her.”

“So what if I was the one who dragged her with me?” Xuan Lin took a solid punch from her and was forced to retreat a few steps backwards. But he still coldly snorted and said viciously, “easy for you to say. I can’t even eat properly for her, what sibling love? I had no other choice. Whoever was in my shoes would have made the same choice as me.”

“Don’t bullshit!” Shi Xia this time raised her foot and sent a kick towards Xuan Lin as her mouth kept firing bullets, “You are simply insulting the word ‘brother’. Don’t think that all the brothers in the world are like you. There are many people who would not abandon their flesh and blood relatives even if they were starving to death. You are just trying to be an incompetent gentleman but couldn’t even handle his sister. What ‘I had no choice’? All are fucking excuses! You don’t deserve to be her brother at all.”

Xuan Lin was kicked into a donkey by her, covering his head, he took a few steps back but still stared at her fiercely, “If I don’t deserve it, do you deserve it? You care about her so much, why don’t you just take her with you?”

“You ……” Shi Xia had not finished when she noticed a small figure standing beside them. Glancing at the small girl, Shi Xia spoke with hesitation, “Niu Niu ……”

When did she come over? She purposely chose to confront Xuan Lin here just to keep her from hearing. Now ……

“Niu Niu ……” She hurriedly went to her, her heart was a little panicked. Who knows how much of what she just said was heard by Niu Niu. Thinking Niu Niu might be hurt by her words, Shi Xia tried to explain anxiously, “Listen to me, it’s not what you think it is!”

“It’s exactly as it is!” Xuan Lin looked indifferent, he straightened up and tidied his clothes and said in a cold voice, “Anyway, even if you beat me to death, I won’t take her with me anymore. Whoever wants her can take her away.”

After saying this, he turned around and walked away. Shi Xia called out to him, but he didn’t turn his head back and even walked faster.

Niu Niu stood in place, she did not cry, nor did she chase after him. Her small white face looked a little pale, her small body trembled and two fists clenched tightly.

Shi Xia felt her heart clenching in pain, she was so heartbroken for her that she couldn’t stop herself from squatting down to hug her little body, “Niu Niu ……”

She wanted to comfort her but couldn’t understand what to say. Should she say she was just playing around with Xuan Lin and whatever she heard was just a misunderstanding? But that bastard Xuan Lin was gone.
