Chapter 180 - Emotions (2/2)

The Blood Seeker contains Wang Ling's etched emotion. His pain, regrets, anger, hatred and many other emotions had all joined in the Blood Seeker and bits of these emotions still remain in the sword fragments. He could tell with a look.

Wang Ling could feel it, the emotions that were both a plague and joy. As a fragment of Blood Seeker and Wang Ling was rejoined, his mind began to swirl as a certain memory appeared in his mind.

Sadness, hatred, pain, regret and all of the emotions that had been kept in the sword run through Wang Ling's heart and mind. No sword was as alive as the Blood Seeker. After all, it held Wang Ling's other half and those words were not mere sentiments.

The Blood Seeker did indeed have a piece of Wang Ling and he forged it to be like so. Etching the emotions he had felt when something significant happens so he would not be able to forget and he could carry them throughout his life.

His master had once said that the past was the past and he needed to forget his regrets and look into the future before moving forth without hesitation.

That was the only teaching he received from his master he chose not to accept. The raw emotions he had etched in his sword was a reminder for himself for who he truly was.

It was a reminder that speaks more clearly to him than any words from anyone.

In a life where the path you tread is dyed red in the blood of your loved ones and enemy to the point, you cannot distinguish them any longer.

The emotions he had felt in certain times in certain situations was a reminder for him that no matter what he does and no matter what he achieves in life, he would always be someone who held such a wide variety of emotions.

He needed a reminder that no matter what he achieves, no matter whose life that he saves, and no matter how much he torments those who perpetuated that massacre of the place he once called home.

He, the one they call Blood Seeking Celestial and the man who once stood at the apex was someone who was powerless to stop those bastards from making others leave his side.

It was bitter, it was harsh, and it was painful.

And just like how it always went in the head of the Blood Seeking Celestial all those years ago. Once the Blood Seeker drinks the blood of its target and began to hum, that would be the only time the Blood Seeking Celestial will find a peace of mind.

For he who seeks redemption can only find solace in the same place that started his blood-filled path. He can only find himself in an ocean of blood.

Bai Xue who was monitoring Wang Ling could feel his body trembling.

She did not know what kind of emotions were boiling inside his mind and heart but she could feel the fear and loneliness he was radiating.

She was beside her but could not say anything to him.

But she wanted to show that she would be there by his side.

So, Bai Xue slowly enlarged her body and positioning herself to surround Wang Ling's whole body with her own.

Wrapping her tail and head on Wang Ling, she ever so gently whispered, ”I am here.”

Wang Ling's body calmed down a little,
