Chapter 169: Sister's Candy

The person is hazy in the rain.

The rain shatters on the ground.

A tranquil environment always stirs up deep memories.

It’s the rain that never stops, from childhood to adolescence, and then from adolescence to youth.

“Elder Brother, he’s still so kind-hearted…”

The girl holds an oil-paper umbrella, quietly waiting for the boy’s return.

The rain is heavy.

So heavy that the raindrops form continuous white lines.

Her pure eyes reflect the silent rainy world and that familiar figure.

To the girl, Xu Xi is her elder brother, a hero who would always shield her from any danger.

For such a hero, for such an elder brother.

Young Xu Moli was always overjoyed.

He was her only reliance, the only family she could snuggle with for warmth in the harsh winter.

But at the same time, Xu Moli knew that her kind-hearted elder brother would lend a hand to others.

Jealous?

Not really.

When she saw the people of the Army of Survival, the girl thought of her past self. She also felt compassion for the people, secretly casting health spells on them.

“Elder Brother would be happy with this, right?”

She smiled.

But the smile lasted only a moment.

In fact, the girl still feels a sense of unreality.

She couldn’t believe it.

The elder brother who used to give her candies and run to different markets to buy them.

The elder brother who cared about her growth and specifically enrolled her in the sect’s early education.

The elder brother who, to save her, painfully dug out his own Spiritual Root.

He actually, actually came back.

And he didn’t blame her at all.

Still, as before, he would gently pat her head and comfort her in a soft voice, telling her not to cry.

It really feels like a dream…

The rain grows heavier, and the girl holding the oil-paper umbrella gradually loses herself in thought.

Until the increasingly clear footsteps and the call from her elder brother intertwine, waking the distracted girl.

“Mo Li, why did you come?”

Xu Xi steps forward.

Skillfully taking the umbrella handle from the girl.

His movements are as usual, the umbrella slightly tilted, perfectly shielding Xu Moli from the wind and rain.

Though for an eternal supreme being.

The wind and rain would naturally avoid her.

The girl’s eyes first look at the umbrella above, then at Xu Xi’s hand holding the umbrella handle.

She suddenly smiles brightly: “I just thought… Elder Brother might need me, so I came.”

Not for anything.

No hidden agenda.

The Female Immortal’s answer is simple, just wanting to help Xu Xi.

Just like how Xu Xi once helped her without any reason.

Xu Xi smiles: “Then you came for nothing, this matter is simple, I can handle it myself.”

No, not really.

Xu Moli looks at Xu Xi beside her, feeling the long-lost companionship in the rain.

She thinks today’s outing wasn’t in vain.

“Pitter-patter—”

The two walk on the slippery road.

The rain hasn’t been falling for long.

But on the way home, puddles of various sizes have already formed, making crisp splashing sounds with each step.

“Elder Brother, who are those people…?”

On the way back to the courtyard.

Xu Moli asks Xu Xi about the origins of the people.

She roughly knows, but she wants to hear it from Xu Xi.

“Well, how should I explain it to you.”

Xu Xi hesitates, then briefly explains the events of the third simulation.

“I see…”

“So this is Elder Brother’s experience from the last cycle…”

The girl doesn’t know about the simulation.

But she understands the principle.

She considers everything about the simulator as Xu Xi’s cycle.

“Elder Brother, you really haven’t changed at all,” the Female Immortal’s tone is reassuring, her smile quite lovely.

“What hasn’t changed?” Xu Xi asks.

“Always thinking of saving others, never considering yourself,” Xu Moli hums lightly.

“Elder Brother, that’s not good.”

The girl scolds Xu Xi, telling him to think more about himself, not just others.

Even though she herself was saved by Xu Xi.

But she neither wants.

Nor wishes.

For the hero who braved the scorching sun and thorns to fall bleeding again.

“Okay, I understand,” Xu Xi doesn’t argue, but extends his free hand, gently placing it on his sister’s head, rubbing lightly.

The girl isn’t really scolding him.

But caring for him.

Who would get angry over someone’s concern?

Then, Xu Xi and Xu Moli continue walking, chatting a lot in the pitter-pattering rain.

Those are their unique past memories, irreplaceable by anyone else.

Like life in Blackstone City.

The two siblings eating a big watermelon, Mo Li’s belly bulging, still eyeing the remaining watermelon.

Finally, Xu Xi lightly taps her forehead, and she obediently looks away.

Or life in the Heavenly Sword Sect.

The slightly older girl.

In the pouring rain, would stand at the entrance of the Cultivation Cave, patiently waiting for Xu Xi’s return.

Xu Xi often felt warm-hearted, seeing his obedient sister upon returning home, nothing was more reassuring, but he still taught Mo Li not to wait for him every time.

Chatting and walking.

They’ve covered some distance.

The heavy rain silences the city, lights of various colors illuminate the streets.

The lights intertwine, bright and dim, forming a beautiful light scene in the rain.

“Mo Li, wait a moment.”

As if seeing something.

Xu Xi suddenly stops.

He tells the girl to stay put, then enters a convenience store by the road, coming out with a few lollipops.

“Here.”

The lollipops are stuffed into the girl’s hand.

Very ordinary.

Extremely ordinary.

Just normal candies you can find by the roadside.

“Elder Brother is so silly…” Xu Moli murmurs softly, finding it somewhat amusing.

She has transcended the Immortal Emperor, attained eternal enlightenment, yet Xu Xi still treats her like a child, habitually buying her candies.

Such an elder brother, really silly…

But also really liked…

Her slender fingers gently peel off the wrapper, the girl’s lips part, sucking on the lollipop Xu Xi gave her, feeling a bit sweet.

“How is it, tasty?”

“Of course, Elder Brother’s gift is always tasty.”

The girl answers while looking up.

Her eyes seem to see beyond the umbrella and the sky.

Seeing something even more distant.

Actually, she came to find Xu Xi not just to help him, but also because of an inexplicable sense of urgency.

It feels like something is coming, making her want to “protect her food.”

Ah, so annoying…
