Proving the Dao of Hunyuan from the Age of Witches

Chapter 029 Luo Xi's Tape Period

"Are Luo Xin and Bai Nuo alright?" Luo Xi followed Qiangwei to the square.

"It's alright, you should know that," Rose replied calmly.

Yes, Luo Xi infused magic into the watches of both Luo Xin and Bai Nuo.

As long as Luo Xin and Bai Nuo have used their magic, the magic left on the watch will be slightly disturbed, and she will be able to detect it.

After all, the house Yang Jian donated was only a little over 1 kilometer away from the school.

Furthermore, she confirmed that Rose indeed had some way of investigating their situation that she was unaware of.

Whether it's Luo Xin, Bai Nuo, or her.

Upon confirming this, Luo Xi became somewhat flustered.

Rose seemed to realize that she was being tested.

"Do you like testing me?" Rose stopped in her tracks, a gentle smile on her face. "We can try it tonight."

"No," Luo Xi replied hastily.

"No need for that. If you have any questions, just ask." Rose started pinching her cheek.

"I can tell you anything I can answer."

"I really like you. You've always been optimistic and fought with unwavering determination. Although you can seem impulsive at times, most of the time you do your best." Rose was still pinching her cheek.

"However, humans have their limits, and so do witches."

"Why won't you accept someone who is genuinely good to you? Did I make you feel insecure?" Rose hadn't stopped what she was doing.

"I've never been your enemy. Try to believe me; we're allies." Rose finally stopped pinching her cheek.

Companions?

Rose's sudden candor left Luo Xi speechless for a moment.

She immediately realized what was happening.

No, she cannot have companions, she cannot have weaknesses.

From the moment she embarked on the path of cultivation, to be precise, from the very beginning, she had no way back; she could only move forward, she had no choice but to move forward.

Either die on the way, or stand at the finish line.

"Don't try to probe my mind by any means," Luo Xi said seriously. "I don't want to use any methods I use on you that I use on an enemy."

Rose remained calm and even pinched her cheek again.

I don't know why, but whenever someone pinches her cheek, she gets very irritable and wants to fight, especially in such serious matters.

"What are your plans?" Rose suddenly asked.

"Let's go to the school first and check on Luo Xin and Bai Nuo," Luo Xi said, taking out her phone. "Although we can get through to them, we're still a little worried."

"After we confirm their situation, we'll go to Yang Jian's place and see what happened to him," Luo Xi's phone beeped. "We can't get in touch with Yang Jian."

……

Outside the classroom, seeing her younger sister Luo Xin and Bai Nuo having a math class, Luo Xi slowly returned to Qiangwei's side and got into the car.

"Aren't you going to say anything?" Rose asked quietly.

"There's no need," Luo Xi shook her head.

"Aren't you going to tell her about your parents? She trusts you a lot," Rose asked calmly.

"She can't accept it," Luo Xi shook her head.

"Tell me about you and your sister," Rose said quietly, gazing into the distance.

She was very envious of Qiangwei's peaceful demeanor.

But I also have a guess in my heart that people like this can only be calm about everything after experiencing the ups and downs of life.

Such tranquility comes at a price, just like her.

If she represents an extreme and solitary persistence, then the rose embodies eternal tranquility.

Pulling herself back to reality, Luo Xi slowly began to speak.

"I've always been a bit of a loner since I was little. It's not my parents' problem, it's my own. I won't go into the specific reasons."

"Of course, my parents are very good to me, and I am polite, sensible, and have excellent grades, but... I just can't trust them."

"And so it went until my sister was born."

"Ever since she could walk, she's been sticking to me like a little tail."

"I don't know why, even though her parents are the ones who are truly good to her."

"It wasn't until elementary school that I noticed her personality was becoming more and more like mine."

"She became estranged from her parents who were truly good to her, and her personality became withdrawn. I knew I had to correct this."

"Actually, it's also my fault for being too good at pretending."

"Because my parents never had to worry about anything when I was a child, they thought their parenting style was very successful, so they used the same methods they used to educate me to educate my younger sister."

"I only realized the problem when I found out that my parents were scolding my younger sister for not being as sensible as me because she failed her exam."

"So, I skipped school and got into fights to let them know that everything I did before was just a pretense. Only when my parents are completely disappointed in me will they truly realize that my sister is the normal one."

"Anyway, it's not like I haven't been through something like this before."

"Only then will they truly care about my sister; after all, they still love their own child."

"But her parents passed away before she grew up," Luo Xi smiled. "She's too young; she wouldn't be able to accept it if we told her now."

"I see," Rose said calmly. "Miss Luo Xi is so gentle, but why not use an even gentler approach? Let her know you care about her and love her?"

"I don't know how." Luo Xi looked at Qiangwei calmly and frankly. "No one has ever taught me how to care for and love others."

"The only thing I know how to do is teach her to be strong. To teach her to live on no matter what, when facing darkness and despair."

"As long as there is life, there is hope. This is the only truth I firmly believe in."

"What kind of environment did you grow up in... You're only 12 years old," Rose sighed, her usually calm voice unusually tinged with concern. "Actually, Miss Luo Xi also has things to learn."

"Oh?" Luo Xi raised an eyebrow.

"Actually, what Miss Luo Xi needs to learn first is how to love herself," Rose said quietly.

...My heart skipped a beat.

"There's no need," Luo Xi quickly began, staring straight ahead and gesturing for the driver to stop at the intersection in the distance. "The only thing I learned was how to get to the destination."

"So, what is the destination that Miss Luo Xi wants to reach?" Rose asked politely.

"Proving the Dao of Hunyuan," Luo Xi pondered, "is a realm that does not exist in reality, transcending the beginning and the end, existing with the heavens and coexisting with the Dao. Once proven, it is proven forever; once attained, it is attained forever. This is the destination I want to reach."

"What can we do now that we've reached this end?" Rose seemed to be asking Luo Xi, or perhaps she was sighing.

Luo Xi did not answer.

"Let's go, the contact address Yang Jian left on his phone is not far away."

Seeing the driver stop the car, Luo Xi got out and called out to Qiangwei.

It is said that Yang Jian is the heir to a certain group, but Luo Xi doesn't care.

Cultivators should be detached from worldly affairs, and for Luo Xi, Yang Jian was simply an easy person to cooperate with.

However, for some unknown reason, this business partner suddenly lost contact with them without warning.

She wants to know why.

If Yang Jian made his own choice, such as withdrawing voluntarily out of fear of the risks of contacting the extraordinary world and severing all ties, then that would be fine.

After all, everyone has their own ambitions, and she won't force anyone.

But if there are other hidden reasons, Yang Jian was forced to abandon the cooperation against his will...

So, whether it's to eliminate potential threats or to settle this matter, she needs an explanation.

It's time to join Han Tianzun in asking for some tape!
