Pain

An Lie’s injuries were already very dangerous. There were many areas that were rotten. Su Xiaolu had to clean up these rotten bad meat with a blade before applying medicine and giving An Lie a lot of divine medicine.

An Lie was unconscious when Su Xiaolu came out of the room. Zhou Zhi was outside the door. He reached out to Su Xiaolu and held her hand. He said gently, “Xiaolu, eat something. Leave them to Fourth Brother.”

Su Xiaolu was also extremely tired. She was quiet and obedient.

She followed Zhou Zhi to eat together. Zhou Zhi had already prepared hot water. After washing up, she obediently and quietly returned to her room to sleep.

She had not been so tired in a long time.

As soon as she fell asleep, her consciousness sank into the Space.

Unlike before, this time, she was sound asleep.

Mantis Shrimp had not seen Su Xiaolu for a long time and ran towards her. He was very happy, but seeing that Su Xiaolu was asleep, he leaned against her quietly.

Mantis Shrimp pressed against Su Xiaolu’s head, and a small white light seeped into Su Xiaolu’s glabella. Su Xiaolu’s frown visibly relaxed.

After doing all this, Mantis Shrimp yawned and fell asleep next to Su Xiaolu.

When Su Xiaolu woke up again, she felt relaxed and comfortable. She moved her head and touched something furry. She took a look and saw that it was Mantis Shrimp.

Su Xiaolu sat up. Mantis Shrimp had yet to wake up. Su Xiaolu picked him up and touched him. She leaned to Mantis Shrimp’s ear and whispered, “Mantis Shrimp, thank you.”

Mantis Shrimp was still sleeping soundly and only moved its body.

Su Xiaolu placed Mantis Shrimp on the Interface Stone. Mantis Shrimp was still sleeping and would stick out its tongue to lick it.

Su Xiaolu pinched his little claws and soft and cute ears before leaving the Space.

The sky was already bright.

Su Xiaolu went out and went to see An Lie first. An Lie’s condition had already stabilized. He woke up and saw Su Xiaolu. He smiled and called out to her, “Master.”

An Cheng’s smile was filled with bitterness. This time, there was no joy of reunion.

Su Xiaolu sat by the bed and said calmly, “An Lie, when did this happen?”

An Lie smiled bitterly and said slowly, “It’s been a year.”

Wang Jiang controlled them a year ago.

At that time, they were really helpless. Wang Jiang was careful and even got his mother to go to the government to get the official documents. As for where they went, the government did not care. The life and death of their family were completely in Wang Jiang’s hands.

At that time, he had always hoped for his Master to come again.

“Master, thank you for taking revenge for me.”

An Lie looked at Su Xiaolu. If it were him, he would not be able to do it at all, but Su Xiaolu could. He had heard from An Cheng that Su Xiaolu had avenged him alone and even crippled Wang Jiang’s legs.

Martial arts were very important. An Lie had a goal in his heart. In this world, martial strength was the confidence to speak.

“Master, my mother has passed away. After my mother passed away, we couldn’t see any hope. Little Ou has gained superpowers. She can talk to fish now. We made a plan. Little Ou called the big Kun over. We were very successful, but we didn’t find her.”

An Lie spoke calmly. His tone was very calm, but tears welled up in his eyes.

His sister was gone.

He had lost two important family members.

An Lie cried for a while before calming down. He and his uncle would live well and definitely not let his sister, An Xiaoou, die in vain.

Their freedom and lives had not been easy to come by. They could not let them down.

Su Xiaolu grabbed An Lie’s wrist and injected some internal energy and spiritual energy into him.

An Lie looked at Su Xiaolu and asked, “Master, what can I do to be as powerful as you?”

An Lie wanted powerful martial arts too much.

Su Xiaolu looked at An Lie seriously and said, “Practice day after day, year after year, unwavering perseverance and willpower. You missed the best time to practice martial arts, but if you work twice as hard as others, you will definitely be able to catch up.”

Now, she would also practice her sword at a fixed time every day.

She knew that the matter between An Xiaoou and Mother An had dealt An Lie a heavy blow. It would take some time for him to walk out of it. If An Lie relied on martial arts, it was good. Only with faith in his heart could he bury his pain.

An Lie’s eyes burst with a strong and determined light. He had to become stronger. He was not afraid of hardship or tiring. He could definitely do it.

An Lie and An Cheng were recuperating.

The ship did not return, it searched along the endless sea area.

The possibility of An Xiaoou surviving was too low, but there were too many changes now. Even if it was very low, it was very likely.

At the end of February, An Lie and An Cheng had recovered.

The two of them fell into a crazy cultivation mode. Seeing that they were obsessed with cultivation, Gui You would teach them. This made An Lie and An Cheng cherish them even more.

On this day, An Lie was originally cultivating on the deck. His gaze was locked on the clothes floating on the sea.

An Cheng saw it too. The two of them just looked at each other.

An Lie had already jumped into the sea without hesitation.

Su Xiaolu came out when she heard the sound. She quickly walked to the fence.

An Cheng said, “That’s Little Ou’s clothes.”

An Lie had already grabbed An Xiaoou’s clothes from the sea. He returned to the boat and looked at An Xiaoou’s clothes in a daze. Tears welled up in his eyes and his body trembled as he hugged the clothes tightly.

In the end, his sister was gone. Even her corpse was gone.

Only these tattered clothes were left. An Lie’s heart ached to the extreme. He could not imagine what An Xiaoou’s body had experienced.

An Cheng’s eyes were also red and painful. He choked and muttered to himself, “Little Ou has been sensible since she was young. She’s not in good health and will always be bullied. Little Lie and I will stand up for her when we see her, but she always won’t tell us… She stayed at home obediently and worked hard to grow up… It wasn’t easy for her to treat her heart disease…”

An Cheng couldn’t understand why their family had to suffer so much. Why did they still end up like this after doing so many good things?

...

Su Xiaolu’s eyes were also red. She had only met An Xiaoou a few times. They were the same age. An Xiaoou was shy. She looked at her with admiration. An Lie had once said that An Xiaoou also wanted to be a woman like her.

But there would be no more chances.

In the next few days, An Lie and An Cheng were very silent.

They liked to stare at the night sky in a daze.

Su Xiaolu was worried about An Lie and often followed them to look at the night sky not far away.

The galaxy that filled the sky flashed beautifully. Su Xiaolu recalled a legend. It was said that when a person died, they would turn into stars and look at their family from the sky. If they missed their family, they should look up at the stars. An Lie, An Cheng, and the others always looked at the galaxy in the night sky. Was it because they missed their family?

Su Xiaolu felt a lump in her throat. She knew that the pain in An Lie and An Cheng’s hearts would take a long time to slowly calm down.

They began to sail back.
