We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real?

“Xiao Mo, how big is this world?”

“Very, very big.”

“How big is very big?”

“Big enough that we couldn’t walk across it in our entire lifetimes.”

“Oh…”

The little girl lowered her head but soon, the little girl raised her head again and asked, “Then Xiao Mo, if this world is so big, why are there always so many people who can’t get enough to eat?”

Xiao Mo smiled and flicked Jiang Xin’s forehead, “Because in this world, there are many people who don’t just want to have enough to eat. They want many, many things. The more they want, the less others naturally get.”

“Oh…”

Jiang Xin nodded with half understanding.

Xiao Mo glanced at Jiang Xin and slowly said, “Ah Xin, what do you want to do in the future?”

“In the future?” Jiang Xin thought for a moment, “I don’t know, but if possible, I don’t want so many people in the world to go hungry, I don’t want so many people in the world to suffer.”

“Mm,” Xiao Mo nodded. “That’s a very remarkable wish.”

Jiang Xin: “…”

“What’s wrong?” Xiao Mo turned his head and found Jiang Xin staring at him blankly.

Jiang Xin shook her head vigorously, “Xiao Mo, this is the first time you’ve praised me.”

“Is it?” Xiao Mo asked.

“Mm-hmm,” Jiang Xin nodded. “Before you always called me stupid.”

Xiao Mo reached out his finger and tapped Jiang Xin’s little head with a bit of force, “That’s because you really are stupid.”

“Walk faster, Blood Moon City is just ahead.”

Xiao Mo led the donkey and quickened his pace forward.

“I’m clearly not stupid…”

Jiang Xin touched her head, pouted her little mouth, then hurriedly ran toward Xiao Mo’s direction, “Xiao Mo, wait for me…”

During this time, Xiao Mo and Jiang Xin tried to avoid people as much as possible.

After all, in a place like the Western Region, two children didn’t know what kind of people they might encounter.

Fortunately, Xiao Mo felt that he and Jiang Xin had pretty good luck.

They hadn’t encountered any strange people during these days.

Blood Moon City was a city near Crimson Sun Sect.

The city lord was also a Golden Core realm cultivator.

In a chaotic place like the Western Region, there were quite a few cities similar to Blood Moon City and Luofeng City that didn’t belong to any dynasty, but rather to individual cultivators.

So rather than calling them cities, they were more like sects.

In most cases, city lords strictly forbade cultivators from fighting and killing within the city.

That’s why Xiao Mo and Jiang Xin dared to enter.

After entering Blood Moon City, Xiao Mo took Jiang Xin to replenish some food, then quickly left Blood Moon City.

After all, as two children, the longer they stayed, the more likely they were to be targeted.

Although ordinary cultivators wouldn’t be interested in them but they were afraid of being targeted by some bullies who picked on the weak, who might then block and rob them at the city gate.

“Xiao Mo, how far are we from Crimson Sun Sect?”

In a cave, Jiang Xin hugged her knees and sat by the fire, her eyes blinking as she looked at Xiao Mo.

“Tomorrow morning when we wake up, after walking for about half a day, we should arrive,” Xiao Mo yawned, leaned against the wall, and slowly closed his eyes.

Actually, Xiao Mo didn’t really want Jiang Xin to meet that Sister Zi.

Xiao Mo always felt something was suspicious about the situation.

Along the way, Xiao Mo had also subtly tested Jiang Xin several times, trying to get her to give up looking for Sister Zi, but Jiang Xin was very persistent.

Although Jiang Xin looked gentle and weak, easy to bully, and would only pout when bullied but about some things, she was quite stubborn.

Just as Xiao Mo closed his eyes in thought, Jiang Xin saw that Xiao Mo had “fallen asleep” and quietly crawled to his side, her clear eyes gazing at Xiao Mo’s face.

Feeling Jiang Xin’s breath, Xiao Mo suddenly opened his eyes.

Jiang Xin was startled and quickly drew her small body back.

“What are you doing?” Xiao Mo asked.

Jiang Xin, kneeling on the ground, shook her head, “Nothing… nothing…”

“If it’s nothing, then go to sleep,” Xiao Mo closed his eyes again but Jiang Xin still raised her head and looked at Xiao Mo with blinking eyes.

Finally, Jiang Xin crawled to Xiao Mo’s side, reached out her small hand and gently tugged at the corner of his clothes, “Xiao Mo, are you asleep?”

“No,” Xiao Mo still had his eyes closed. “If you have something to say, just say it.”

“Oh…” Jiang Xin lowered her head, rubbing her fingers together.

After a long while, Jiang Xin raised her head and tugged at Xiao Mo’s clothes, “Xiao Mo…”

“Mm,” Xiao Mo responded.

“Why are you so good to me?” Jiang Xin asked curiously.

For Jiang Xin, although she couldn’t see Xiao Mo’s thoughts and didn’t know what he was thinking.

And although Xiao Mo occasionally scolded her and tapped her little head, sometimes quite hard, making her feel pain but during these one or two months of getting along, Xiao Mo had really been very good to her.

“Because you’re stupid,” Xiao Mo said casually. “I’m kindhearted, I can’t stand to see fools suffer.”

“Oh…” Jiang Xin lowered her head, sat beside Xiao Mo, and muttered softly, “I’m clearly not stupid…”

The next morning, Xiao Mo woke up in the cave and turned his head to see Jiang Xin sleeping against his shoulder.

Xiao Mo woke Jiang Xin up.

After the two simply washed up and ate a steamed bun, they continued toward Crimson Sun Sect.

Near noon, Xiao Mo finally reached the mountain gate of Crimson Sun Sect.

The two cultivators guarding the gate saw two little beggars approaching and shouted sternly, “Hey! You two get lost! This isn’t a place for begging!”

Jiang Xin was frightened and hid behind Xiao Mo, poking her little head out from behind him, nervously saying, “I… I want to find Sister Zi. Two big brothers, is Sister Zi here?”

Xiao Mo helped Jiang Xin add, “Sister Zi has a teardrop mole at the corner of her eye, she’s very pretty, wearing a purple dress, and carrying a blue-purple sword.”

“Sister Zi?” The two cultivators looked at each other.

“You mean Senior Sister Zixia?” one guard cultivator said. “Wait a moment, I’ll go report this for you.”

Although they really didn’t want to deal with these two beggars, Senior Sister Zixia had high status, and they didn’t dare to neglect her.

What if these two beggars really had some relationship with the senior sister, and she blamed them, these outer disciples couldn’t handle it.

At the same time, in Crimson Sun Sect’s alchemy room.

A woman in purple robes stood before the alchemy furnace, the raging furnace fire reflected in her eyes.

She held a long sword tightly in her hand, gripping the scabbard with increasing force, the carved patterns on the scabbard pressing deeply into her palm.

“Junior sister, this batch of children indeed has quite good bone structure.”

A man in Daoist robes walked in, saying with a smile.

“But junior sister, Master clearly wanted five boys, why did you only bring back four?”
