CHAPTER 246 (1/2)
Collapsing 9 Boundaries 5
Xie Xi’s past was only a short 19 years and he encountered Jiang Xie the moment he entered Central. Apart from Fairy Tale Town, all the other quasi-worlds were either made by Jiang Xie or he entered with Jiang Xie.
However, Jiang Xie wasn’t the same. His 20 years of life in his original world compared to his experience in Central was like the childhood of an old man. It might be necessary but it was only the tip of the iceberg in his long life.
Jiang Xie’s past wasn’t only his original world but Central and the countless quasi-worlds he travelled through.
Jiang Xie might not know Yan Zhe in his original world but he might’ve met Yan Zhe in a quasi-world.
The present Yan Zhe was probably the first time Jiang Xie met Yan Zhe.
Being able to enter Central meant being abandoned by the world and willingly abandoning the world.
He could imagine that everyone had an unspeakable past but once Xie Xi saw the cold silver-haired elf in front of him, he found it really hard to equate with the optimistic and funny person from Central
Xie Xi soon became relieved again.
It wasn’t just Yan Zhe. Wasn’t Jiang Xie the same?
How was the bloody and violent young man in front of him similar to the confident and shameless Designer X of Central?
Xie Xi felt a lot when he saw the scene in front of him and then his playful and angry scolding in Central.
Time and experience settled the pain and hardships, polishing them into strong people while eliminating countless weaknesses.
Xie Xi was really lucky to have encountered Jiang Xie after entering Central.
He might’ve cursed life while being pitted by Jiang Xie’s quasi-worlds but compared to other people, the things he encountered were what he most desired.
He was said to repair the quasi-worlds and help Jiang Xie recover his souls but in fact, Xie Xi was exploring what he wanted.
He saved Jiang Xie while saving himself.
The road he took was really lucky compared to other people.
As Xie Xi was stunned, Jiang Xie had found the key to the cage and opened the cage that imprisoned Yan Zhe.
The iron door was pushed open but Yan Zhe didn’t move. He looked straight at Jiang Xie, his beautiful eyes as still as a deep pool.
It was an expression that showed he didn’t trust anyone and no longer expected anything.
It was hard to imagine what Yan Zhe had gone through.
Jiang Xie didn’t say anything. He just opened the cage and gave Yan Zhe freedom. Everything else had nothing to do with him.
He wasn’t interested in Yan Zhe’s blood and wasn’t obliged to take care of a stranger.
Xie Xi was a bit anxious when he saw that these two people’s paths had no intention of intersecting.
Don’t ignore the god, this was your first good friend!
Xie Xi moved his little hairball body with the heart of an old father.
Jiang Xie intended to clean up inside. He was probably afraid the hairball would become nauseous and whispered, “Wait for me here and don’t run around.”
Xie Xi wanted to help him and his first friend establish a good relationship and pecked Jiang Xie’s palm.
Jiang Xie told him, “Don’t be afraid, that person won’t hurt you.”
“That’s not what I mean!”
Unfortunately, it was the same as when he was a cat. He couldn’t be understood.
Jiang Xie thought the bird didn’t want to leave him and said, “The inside is too stinky. I’ll clean it up soon.”
Xie Xi thought about it and stayed in this person’s arms.
God Yan could wait. He didn’t want Jiang Xie to face the corpses on his own.
Jiang Xie spoke easily to coax the little hairball but once he smelt the heavy bloody smell, he couldn’t help feeling nauseous.
This child might be strong but he was an ordinary teenager. How could he have experienced such a scene before?
Previously it was life and death but now that he looked again, he only felt cold.
Xie Xi felt the tremor in Jiang’s body and tried to rub against him.
The soft feathers touched the skin, bringing a slight warmth to Jiang Xie and relaxing his nerves.
No matter how bad the reality, at least he wasn’t alone.
Jiang Xie held his breath and moved the bodies to the garbage truck. Then he poured water on the ground and tried to clean up the blood as much as possible.
It was impossible to clean it thoroughly but it was better than nothing.
In fact, Xie Xi understood Jiang Xie’s mood.
He was forcing himself to face these things, reminding himself of this disgusting scene.
This world was different. He had killed people, killed five people.
Since he grew up in a society governed by laws, Jiang Xie had to get rid of this weakness by encountering it head-on.
In order to live, he must become strong enough.
Perhaps Jiang Xie has also faced this cruel fact when he first arrived at Central and received his first task.
He came out again but Yan Zhe still hadn’t moved.
He leaned against the cage like a beautiful and empty shell. Even if he saw the dawn of freedom, he didn’t have the strength to take a step forward.
Jiang Xie stared at him before going to the bathroom. He placed Xie Xi on the high shower and took off his clothes.
He needed a bath. Even if he couldn’t get rid of the blood on his hands, he had to at least keep his body clean.
Xie Xi was too small and could squat steadily in place. He said, “Yan Zhe has lost too much blood. He will die at this rate.”
Unfortunately, Jiang Xie didn’t understand and said, “The sound of water is too loud. You can sing against for me later.”
Xie Xi thought, ‘Who is singing to you?’
He was very baffled. How did Jiang Xie become friends with Yan Zhe?
A life without life and a world-weary indifference, how did they establish diplomatic relations?
Fortunately, this wasn’t really the past. If it was true, Xie Xi suspected that these cynical people wouldn’t become friends!
It was also lucky that Jiang Xie was cold but he could still see clearly.
Who would want to say in a cage? In all likelihood, Yan Zhe was too weak to move.
Jiang Xie cooked extra porridge and placed it in front of Yan Zhe.
Xie Xi didn’t see Yan Zhe eating because Jiang Xie took him back to the kitchen and gave him peeled pumpkin seeds to eat.
This was one of Xie Xi’s favourite foods, while the others were watermelon seeds, sunflower seeds, crushed pistachios and walnuts.
The original owner of the farm was estimated to be obsessed with nuts and he had an abundance in storage. Jiang Xie arranged them in different categories, reasonably organized the weights and fed them to Xie Xi.
Jiang Xie questioned while feeding him, “You used to mostly eat insects. Why don’t you eat them now?”
Xie Xi almost spat out the pumpkin seeds in his mouth. “Don’t say something so disgusting!”
