166 Emotions; The Nature! (2/2)

There suddenly showed up four golden and shiny words in the boundless Space.

Ye Xiao's body suddenly shook.

He finally understood what he lacked, and what he truly needed. And he kind of understood why he couldn't break through the peak of the Dao Origin Stage in his previous life.

The four words were ”sentiments of the nature”.

Ye Xiao was stunned.

Four simple words had already explained many things.

”So it is. That is the real rule of the natural law.” Ye Xiao took a deep breath.

A bleak voice, which seemed to have come from the ancient times, suddenly resounded in his heart.

”Sentiments... of... the... nature...” The voice was so special. It seemed the sound that showed how the universe came from nothing...

”It is said... If the nature have emotions, it will also grow old; if the moon doesn't hate, it will stay full... Yet that is wrong. The nature, the whole universe is growing older and older. It watches how mankind suffer, and the nature is suffering at the same time.”

”There are rules and responsibilities of the nature. The moon and the sun have their responsibilities. The grass and the woods have their responsibilities. A man has his own responsibility...”

”A man could only stand up straight with responsibilities. A man should never betray his country. Cultivation is something against the will of nature. If a man doesn't dare to take responsibility in the world, how can he cultivate?”

Ye Xiao listened to it and he was sweating because of embarrassment.

”Mankind has seven kinds of emotions, while the nature has one criterion. Why does mankind have seven? Why does nature have one criterion? The seven emotions and six desires are man's nature. The one criterion of the nature is the paramount rule. The one paramount rule is sentimental and it never ends.”

The voice seemed to be tired. It was bleak and blank, like it was going to disappear at any moment.

Ye Xiao didn't know where it came from and how it came to be.

”Happiness, anger, sadness, fear, love, antipathy and hatred. These are people's seven emotions. They all followed love, so humans have only one true emotion. They are happy for love, angry for love, sad for love, annoyed for love, hateful for love, fearful for love, and they love for love.”

”There are seven emotions based on love. Love creates six desires. Love mankind; that is the sublime love. Love your country; that is the fundamental love.”

”You body belongs to something; your heart belongs to something; you yourself belongs to something. That is your home. All heroes belongs to their homes. That's what makes them heroes at the first place.”

The voice kept sounding.

Ye Xiao lied in bed. He just lied there and breathed calmly. He focused on listening.

Song Jue thought he was asleep, so he quietly left.

Listening to the voice talking, Ye Xiao felt like his mind was traveling outside the universe. Those that he couldn't understand in his previous life were now turning clear one by one.

Love.

Because of love, people got mad. Their beloved ones being messed up would make people angry. People felt sad because they lost something or someone they love. Because they love their lives, they feared death...

Everything was because of love.

[But...

Did I love in my previous life though?

I have been solitary all my life, and I always laughed at people in the world. It looks cool but who knows how sad it is to be alone all the time? I cultivated the Pure Yang Martial Art and couldn't love and be with a girl. I was also an orphan, so I never experienced the love of family.

I have never loved.

How could I possibly have responsibility if I didn't love? What was I going to protect?

Yet I actually wanted to be on the way to the paramount position.

Wasn't that a joke?

A complete joke.]

Ye Xiao's heart was shaking at the moment.

[I turned out to be such a loser in my previous life...

I actually had nothing.

No. Actually, I did have...]

He couldn't help thinking of the beautiful girl in white dress in his previous life.

Her sad eyes and her crystal teardrops. Those were like glowing pearls dropping down on the floor.

A true and beautiful affection had been waiting for him, yet he never saw straight to it those days. He ignored it like it was something useless. How he blamed himself for that now.

Ye Xiao was sentimental. He murmured inside his mind, ”If I have the chance to meet you in this life... I won't fail you. I will hug you the first second I see you.”

Suddenly, the images in his mind changed. He seemed to see himself as a child being bullied and begging among the crowd on the endless streets. He felt painful.

[Why did my parents abandon me...?

Why?]
