"To be free of the world's affair and live your life peacefully, it's a bit enviable," Nan Hua said.
The monk scoffed. "Your expression clearly didn't express what you say. And to be able to live freely, there's always a price to pay because you have to make sure you're not stepping on another people's path. Get up and eat, your people will come soon."
Nan Hua was silent.
She watched as the monk walked out and shook her head slightly. This was the first time she talked with the monk directly, but he clearly knew that she was the one who made a move back then too. He might be staying away from the worldly affair, but it didn't mean that he remained oblivious.
He just simply didn't want to get involved.
A person like this was truly a double edged sword.
Tep!
Moving down from the bed, Nan Hua's feet landed on the ground. If she said that she was not affected anymore by her senior sister's decision and death, it would be a lie. But she knew that she couldn't stay here forever.
Nan Hua knew very well that she was still a human being who could be affected by the action of others. Even though she had long sealed her emotions back then, they had returned little by little.
She felt it very well.
The grief, sadness, confusion, anger, and many other emotions when she was facing her senior sister.
It came out strongly.
She didn't want to experience it again.
Even though she knew that people would die sooner or later, Nan Hua didn't want to experience these feelings anymore. Because of that, she would continue on this path until no one was able to touch her and the people around her at all.
Drap! Drap! Drap!
Nan Hua raised her head and saw Nan Si rushed over. His eyes lit up when he saw Nan Hua and quickly bowed down.
"Why are you here?"
"This one is afraid that something happens to you, Miss, so this one chased after you here."
In truth, Nan Si was feeling crazy because he kept on losing Nan Hua's track. He searched everywhere for any traces of her until he found some footprints that were not completely erased by rain.
They were heading towards this area.
Thus, Nan Si decided to head over to Yi Shui Temple after telling the others.
Nan Hua's eyes flickered. "Tell them to stop their move. I'm fine and just need to find a place to relax."
