Chapter 349 The Young Singer's Journey 18
Wuxin and Xiao Yu are half-brothers, sharing the same mother but different fathers. Although this relationship is somewhat delicate and awkward for the two of them, if handled properly, this blood connection will undoubtedly become the strongest bond between them.
Because they share the same mother, they are naturally closer than ordinary people;
But because their fathers were different, Wuxin would never compete with him for power.
Moreover, because of Ye Dingzhi, Wuxin was ostracized in the martial arts world. He used to be able to return to Tianwaitian, but after learning the truth, he voluntarily gave up Tianwaitian.
Now, Wuxin is truly alone, without anyone to rely on.
Wuxin and Xiao Ruofeng are two completely different people.
However, they share the same emotional needs, only they express them differently.
Xiao Ruofeng expresses his emotional needs in an intangible way by caring for and looking after others.
His selfless behavior, while winning the affection and dependence of others, also inadvertently leads those who come into contact with him to habitually demand things from him, forgetting to give him the same emotional comfort.
Xiao Ruofeng's dedication often unknowingly placed more responsibility and pressure on him.
In contrast, Wuxin chose a completely different approach to deal with her emotional needs.
He chose to hide his true feelings, even donning a layer of cold armor to declare to the outside world that he didn't need any so-called warmth and care.
While this approach may protect him from external harm to some extent, it also plunges him into deeper loneliness.
Beneath this hard armor, he savors his inner loneliness and longing, while those outside find it difficult to penetrate his true inner world.
As an observer, Xiao Yu could clearly see the differences between the two.
Therefore, when he was with Xiao Ruofeng, he mostly used words of care, supplemented by practical actions to solidify this relationship.
For Xiao Ruofeng, verbal recognition and encouragement are more important.
However, when faced with unintentional actions, these methods need to be reversed.
He needs to first soften unintentional defenses through actions, and then deepen the connection through words.
This gradually stirs up Wuxin's inner emotions, arouses his longing for his family, and builds his trust and dependence on himself.
You don't need to do anything else.
When the time is right, Xiao Yu won't even need to say a word; Wu Xin will start helping him wholeheartedly, just like Xiao Ruofeng did.
……
"How are you feeling now? If you're okay, let go of my hand for now," Xiao Yu said calmly.
Wu Xin was taken aback by what he heard, wondering: Let go of what?
He looked down and was shocked to find that his right hand was holding an empty medicine bowl, while his left hand was unconsciously gripping Xiao Yu's clothes tightly, and the clothes were crumpled up by him.
!!!
Wuxin was shocked and quickly let go. Looking at the innocently ravaged piece of fabric, a blush of embarrassment flashed across her face, and her hard-won composure was once again rippled with unease: "I'm sorry, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, an absurd idea suddenly popped into his mind.
He remembered that the hand hadn't moved since he woke up, and Xiao Yu was still wearing yesterday's clothes.
Could it be that he unconsciously held onto that hem of his clothes all night?
Does that mean Xiao Yu stayed by his side all night?
Wuxin was startled by this sudden thought, but he immediately shook his head, trying to banish this unrealistic idea from his mind.
Xiao Yu was already doing a great favor by saving his life; how could he possibly sit by his bedside and take care of him all night?
He chuckled self-deprecatingly, realizing that his earlier idea had been somewhat far-fetched.
He quickly composed himself, his usual smile returning to his face, and was about to say something to ease the awkward atmosphere.
Just then, Xiao Yu suddenly stood up, tidied his clothes, glanced at Wuxin indifferently, and walked out of the room without saying a word.
Wuxin, who wanted to ease the awkwardness, felt even more awkward, but at the same time, a sense of loss welled up in her heart.
Xiao Yu is probably leaving!
That's true. Although they are half-brothers, they don't have a deep brotherly bond.
What's more, their fathers were sworn enemies.
In this situation, Xiao Yu's willingness to lend a helping hand during his time of crisis was already an act of utmost kindness and righteousness.
Without a thought, she gently placed the medicine bowl in her hand beside the bed, then lay back down on the bed, staring blankly at the bed frame, and began to think about her future.
At this moment, Wuxin was filled with confusion.
Where else could he go besides returning to the Outer Heavens?
The place he most longed to visit deep in his heart was undoubtedly Hanshan Temple.
He spent twelve peaceful years there and had long regarded it as his home.
However, the agreement to lock the mountains and rivers has now expired. If he does not leave Beili, he will inevitably become the target of the martial arts world and the imperial court.
With his current level of cultivation, how many enemies could he possibly withstand?
Are we supposed to go to the Southern Kingdom or the Northern Barbarian Kingdom, hide our identities, and live a life of eking out a living?
After thinking about it for a long time without any results, he finally gave up and stopped worrying about it.
do not care.
Let's send Master's relics to Dafanyin Temple first, and then talk about other things after we've finished the rituals for Master.
This decision helped Wuxin regain his direction. He quickly sat up in bed, ready to set off for Dafanyin Temple immediately.
Now that the news of his breaking out of the coffin has probably spread, he must complete the rituals before all the forces arrive.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Wuxin stepped out of the room, he was warmly stopped by the waiter guarding the door.
Before he could react, the waiter led him to an elegant private room in the back hall.
"Huh? You're still here?" Wuxin looked at Xiao Yu in the private room with surprise.
At this moment, Xiao Yu had obviously undergone a careful washing and grooming, and his whole person was refreshed. His ordinary white clothes could not hide his noble temperament.
"Of course I've been waiting for you." Xiao Yu held a cup of tea, his face appearing hazy amidst the rising steam.
"Wait for me?" Wuxin was puzzled, but then a thought struck him, and a cryptic smile appeared on his lips. He asked bluntly, "What do you want me to do for you?"
Wu Xin didn't believe that Xiao Yu would do so many things without any ulterior motives, especially given their delicate and complicated relationship.
Before Xiao Yu could speak, he preemptively said with a hint of sarcasm, "If you want me to help you seize the throne, then there's no need to say anything more."
