Originated from mountains and seas, life never ends

"He's gone, you can come out now."

At night, insects chirp constantly and the crescent moon rises high.

Shen Youge sat beside the mountain spring, tilted his head slightly, and said with a hint of smile: "...Xiao."

Today, he and Mo Hanyu were practicing here as usual, but the difference was that a spectator came near the end.

The newcomer hid his figure very cleverly, in the tall trees behind him, in the treetops. Mo Hanyu was concentrating on his training and didn't notice it. But Shen Youge knew his identity when he approached, although he didn't reveal it to Mo Hanyu.

Shen Youge continued to speak to Mo Hanyu at a leisurely pace, and said goodbye to him with a smile as before, watching him go away.

She spoke softly until he was out of sight.

The branches and leaves rubbed against each other and suddenly fell to the ground. The boy walked out of the shadows and stared at him with an unclear look.

"Are you teaching him how to control his powers?"

Although it is a question, it is said with particular certainty.

"Don't you see it all?" Shen Youge held the handle and shifted it slightly. The wheelchair's wheels slowly turned and turned behind him.

Qin Xiao stood not far away, his eyes cold: "Who are you?"

"My name is Shen Youge." Shen Youge said with a smile.

"What else?" Qin Xiao put one hand behind his back, staring at him closely, breathing lightly, as if ready to strike at any time.

"Besides that? Haha..." Shen Youge couldn't help but hold his forehead and laughed, "Why are you so violent? You were not like this when you were a child."

Qin Xiao frowned more and more, staring at Shen Youge's face. The expression did overlap with someone in his memory. Who was it...

Shen Youge sighed: "Logically speaking, I shouldn't have entered the reincarnation cycle, and should have disappeared into the world long ago."

Qin Xiao loosened his knuckles slightly and did not respond.

"Mo Ze... he really doesn't listen to anything I say and is extremely stubborn." Shen Youge lowered his eyes, "Although I have already prepared myself mentally and know that he is a difficult child."

"You ask me who I am? In fact, you already have a lot of guesses in your mind, but you just haven't dared to confirm it." Shen Youge slowly raised his eyes, his eyes as bright as stars and as gentle as soft water, and his words were soft.

"Indeed, it was a long time ago, from thirty lifetimes ago, before he entered reincarnation. When he sees me now, he often calls me by my old name."

"White Pond."

Qin Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank, his body stiffened, and the numbness spread from the top of his head down, across his spine and limbs, raising goose bumps wherever it passed.

White Pond……

Qin Xiao didn't know how to express his shock at this moment.

He actually entered the cycle of reincarnation.

"I was able to enter the cycle of reincarnation...all thanks to him." Bai Ze saw what he was thinking, and his smile was helpless and sad.

"You... have recovered your memory." Qin Xiao thought of what Ji Meng said. Corresponding to what he just said, those who called him Bai Ze, then it can be explained...

wrong.

Qin Xiao closed his eyes and laughed at his own slowness.

If his memory had not been restored, he would not have behaved like this.

"…I'm sorry if my attitude offended you earlier."

Qin Xiao lowered his head slightly and saluted him.

"No need to be like that. To be honest, I was the one who teased you first... Well, I have to say it's really interesting to see you guys looking so nervous and awkward." Bai Ze chuckled.

Qin Xiao: ...

"Besides, I've only recovered my memory, and I'm still a human being. There's no need to be like this. Just treat me as an ordinary senior." Shen Youge probably thought he was really cute, so she couldn't help but pinch his face. "Really... How come you're even cuter than when you were a kid?"

Qin Xiao: ...

Qin Xiao remained silent.

"It's just that he's a little bit aggressive..." Shen Youge frowned, then relaxed, "But I can understand that."

Qin Xiao seemed moved, but without saying a word, he slowly leaned over to keep his eyes level with his, making it easier for him to raise his hand and touch his head.

"This life... is it okay? Mang Ling carefully selected your reincarnation."

"Yes... I think it's very good." Qin Xiao lowered his eyes and his brows twitched slightly.

Qin Xiao was stunned when his fingers accidentally touched the boy's leg, and tried to pinch it. His muscles were weak and his bones were loose.

"This is..." Qin Xiao looked up at him.

"The leg is broken." Shen Youge smiled helplessly, retracted his hand, put his thumb on the lower back, and pointed out the location to him, "Start from here."

"Why? Have you seen a doctor?" Qin Xiao frowned. Although he had heard Mo Hanyu mention it before, he still sounded a little depressed when he heard him talk about it now.

"Because... my stepfather." Shen Youge didn't seem to care. He smiled and waved his hand, motioning him to sit down. "You've also heard Han Yu talk about my experiences in this life, right?"

"Yes...it was mentioned."

"Actually, there's nothing to hide. I was indeed quite naughty before I recovered my memory." Shen Youge said, seeming a little embarrassed, "I got into trouble all day long, and didn't concentrate on my cultivation. When I was bored, I would just play with cats and dogs."

"That's okay, right? Not everyone has to like practicing." Qin Xiao would not blame those who wasted their talents like some people did. In his opinion, talent was someone else's private property, and it was their free choice to use it or shelve it, and they should not be blamed for it.

But Shen Youge shook his head: "But in our place, it's not like that."

"I was born in Xuantian Sect, which is one of the top sects in the world. There, mediocrity is a sin. And wasting one's talent is an even greater sin."

"My biological mother is the leader of Xuantian Sect. She rarely pays attention to my growth because the sect always has various things to deal with."

"As a child, I was eager to get her attention, but I was also a bit rebellious, so I always did things to get her attention, hoping to leave an impression on her."

"Ah, did I forget to mention it? My mother's spouse is not only my father, she currently has... three. My father was actually abducted by her, and he committed suicide before my mother gave birth to me because he could not bear the humiliation. I am the second one she gave birth to, and my eldest brother was born to her and the first spouse, so he can also be considered... the main wife?"

Shen Youge chuckled: "Is that how it's calculated?"

"I don't know." Qin Xiao sat on the ground and shook his head, "I have never married."

"That's right. My father died young, my mother always ignored me, and the people in the sect always favored my eldest brother. Naturally, I felt a little resentful... so I always did something to attract attention."

Speaking of this, Shen Youge seemed a little ashamed and closed his eyes.

"And I also succeeded in attracting their attention... but it was negative." Shen Youge held his forehead, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "After that, there was nothing to say. Because I was not ambitious and narrow-minded, one day I wanted to cause trouble like before, but was plotted against by my mother's third spouse, and was persuaded a few times..."

Shen Youge couldn't help but sigh as he spoke: "I only found out later. It turns out that all these years, my mother had been angry about my father's suicide and felt insulted by him. And I look a bit like my father, so I would always unconsciously vent my anger on him... just like that day."

"That day I regained my memory. It's funny to say that the punishment I agreed to receive was just a few sticks, but my mother thought I was an eyesore and said I was very intelligent and should have been in good shape... so she added a few hundred sticks."

"Looking back now, I was almost beaten to death." Shen Youge couldn't help laughing as he recalled, "It was raining heavily, with lightning and thunder. Somehow, it was as if a bolt of lightning struck my brain, and my memory came back."

"By the time I had sorted out all my memories, the punishment had ended and I no longer had any feeling in my lower body."

"The person who punished me noticed this and reported it to my mother. At that time, my tendons were broken and my bones were damaged. It would take a lot of effort to repair them, so my mother sent someone to throw me out and said she would kick me out of the sect."

"Haha, now that I think about it, I feel a little embarrassed..."

"He was lying on the ground covered in blood, and people passing by couldn't help but look at him."

Shen Youge laughed, as if he was really recalling something embarrassing: "But fortunately, Ju Mang found me and sent me here."

Qin Xiao's brows were twisted into a knot after listening to the whole story. Hearing this, he couldn't help but reach out and touch his pulse.

Shen Youge did not struggle and allowed him to examine her.

Qin Xiao looked around and found that apart from the blockage in his lower body, the rest had recovered and there was no damage to the three elixirs. Only then did he feel relieved.

"That doctor...?" Qin Xiao asked him.

"Tian Miao checked for me and it's not very good." Shen Youge shook his head, "But you don't have to worry, I can still walk with the help of Qi, but it can only last for three hours now, I believe it will last longer in the future."

"Why don't you go find another doctor?" Qin Xiao couldn't help but ask.

"The dean took me to look for one, but it would cost a lot of money, so let's forget about it." Shen Youge saw that he looked too bad, so he couldn't help but touch his head and rub it, "What's wrong? Are you still worried about me?"

"I……"

"Hehehe...really? Do I need a little kid like you to worry about me?" Shen Youge tapped his forehead lightly and said angrily, "Don't worry, I already have a way, but now is not the right time."

Although Qin Xiao was still worried, he had already said so much, so he could only give up for the time being.

"Okay, go back quickly, it's getting late." Bai Ze patted his cheek and said with a smile, "Don't sleep in class again."

Hearing Bai Ze talk about this, Qin Xiao couldn't help but blush and coughed twice in embarrassment.

"I...I'm going to rest."

"Well, go ahead." Shen Youge waved at him.

"Aren't you going back?" Qin Xiao asked him.

"I...will stay here for a while."

Hearing this, Qin Xiao did not stay any longer and said goodbye and left.

Hearing the sound of Qin Xiao leaving, Bai Ze suddenly tilted his head, as if he had discovered something, and smiled with interest.

Behind a tall tree, white hair was faintly visible, as if it had sensed something and quickly left.

Mo Hanyu shuttled through the leaves at high speed. He had already found a shortcut back to the dormitory, and Qin Xiao's speed of finding the way was definitely not as fast as his.

So...what's their relationship?

Mo Hanyu couldn't help but frown as he recalled the scene he had just seen.

He just suddenly thought of something and wanted to come back and ask Shen Youge about it, but he didn't expect to see such a scene.

Qin Xiao knelt on one knee and obediently let Shen Youge touch his cheek. Shen Youge lowered his eyes, as if he was saying something to him, his eyes were deep and gentle. The moonlight passed through the two of them, covering everything with a veil.

Just as Mo Hanyu was about to investigate further, the two of them had already separated, said goodbye to each other and left.

For some reason, Mo Hanyu always felt guilty. He was afraid of being discovered by Qin Xiao, so he left in a hurry and even forgot to ask questions.

Thinking of the close posture of the two of them just now and the familiar and intimate aura between them, Mo Hanyu felt a little confused.

He had never seen Qin Xiao be so submissive in front of him.

Thinking of this, Mo Hanyu curled his lips, feeling a little envious.

...Forget it, since he taught me.

Although Mo Hanyu didn't know Shen Youge's identity, he had taught himself in recent days. That powerful and mysterious power did have the sign of revealing its true form.

Shen Youge told him that when that power was fully displayed before him, he would be able to control it.

Mo Hanyu recalled how he felt when he saw the bloody Qin Xiao after waking up that day, and couldn't help but press his aching heart.

If he had a choice, he would rather lose than hurt Qin Xiao like this.

He didn't want to see Qin Xiao get hurt so badly because of him again...

Mo Hanyu returned to the dormitory, and sure enough, Qin Xiao hadn't come back yet. Chen Mo had already tidied up and was lying on the bed. When he saw him come back, he nodded and greeted him, then fell asleep.

Mo Hanyu washed up quietly and lay on the bed waiting for Qin Xiao to come back.

Just as he thought, it took Qin Xiao a long time to come back.

Qin Xiao crawled into the bed and found it was already warm inside. He looked down and found Mo Hanyu lying inside, looking at him with shining eyes.

"Where did you go today? Why haven't you come back so late?" Mo Hanyu asked in a low voice, even though he knew the answer.

"...Nothing." Qin Xiao wasn't sure whether he knew Shen Youge's identity, but seeing Shen Youge's mysterious look before leaving, it was obvious that she didn't want him to tell others, so he didn't say anything.

When Mo Hanyu heard this answer, he secretly curled his lips.

The lights in the dormitory were off. Qin Xiao did not see his expression. He gently held his hand and found it was a little cold.

"Is it cold today?" Qin Xiao remembered that he had been feeling cold all over every day since he came back in the past two days.

"…It's okay. My body is already warm." Mo Hanyu's hands were held. He turned his head somewhat uncomfortably and pulled his hands out.

Seeing this, Qin Xiao didn't force him. He tucked the corner of the quilt and wanted to get up and get another quilt.

"What are you doing?" Mo Hanyu grabbed him and asked.

"Take another one." Qin Xiao replied softly, a little puzzled, "Don't you want to build it yourself?"

He saw Mo Hanyu just retracted his blanket and thought that he wanted to cover himself with the quilt.

"I didn't... you're such a fool." Mo Hanyu couldn't help but complain. He used his hands and feet to pull him back and hugged him in his arms. "Haven't you been sleeping like this these days? I told you, it's autumn now, and I feel cold."

"...Okay, let's sleep like this then."

Qin Xiao said this and closed his eyes, thinking about buying him a thicker quilt so that they wouldn't have to share a bed.
