Xu Qingying stood there.

Luo Qiushan was looking at her.

Liu Jin was also looking at her.

Even Lu Qing'an, who hadn't said much until now, turned his gaze to her.

Xu Qingying lowered her eyes.

She suddenly felt that this moment was more unbearable than any life-or-death crisis she had faced before.

After she came into this world, she actually thought about many things.

I wondered if I could ever go back.

I've thought about my daughter.

I also thought about Lu Qing'an.

In the end, she didn't dare to think too much about it.

Some things are too far removed from our lives; thinking about them is pointless.

She didn't know how far apart the two worlds were.

That might not be something that distance can measure at all.

So she told herself.

Her talent is suited to the path of ruthlessness.

She had already gained a deep understanding of the Dao of Heartlessness, Dao of Heartlessness extremely powerful. Once one reached its ultimate level, one could sever all things in heaven and earth, overcome the entanglements of cause and effect, and remain unmoved by the Dao heart. One might even have the opportunity to reach places that ordinary cultivators could never even dream of in their entire lives.

She thought it was pretty good at the time.

The past is over.

And so I gave up on that idea.

She even seriously considered whether, if one day she cultivated the Path of Dao of Heartlessness to a very high level, even that man and all the complicated things between them would gradually fade from her heart.

In the end, when Lu Qing'an's name is mentioned again, she may only feel that he was someone she had met in her long life.

That's all.

But who could have imagined!

Just as she was preparing to accept all of this, Lu Qing'an arrived.

There were no earth-shattering signs.

There was no tragic appearance after traversing the heavens.

The man appeared right in front of her.

It's still the same as it used to be.

He still speaks in the same tone.

When I look at people, it's still the same pair of eyes.

Xu Qingying could still deceive herself before.

Tell yourself, it's all in the past.

They've all divorced.

Even if we meet again, it will only be an encounter between old acquaintances.

From now on, we'll each go our own way.

But she knows best herself.

If she were truly just an old acquaintance, why would she have repeatedly avoided Lu Qing'an's gaze?

If she truly didn't care anymore, how could she have almost shattered her Dao heart over a single word like "Uncle Lu"?

The Dao of Heartlessness?

Xu Qingying suddenly felt a touch of self-mockery.

She can't even look at Lu Qing'an with a truly calm mind, so what kind of Dao of Heartlessness is she cultivating?

Even if she grits her teeth and continues fixing it, she's only fooling herself.

Lu Qing'an's appearance has now destroyed all the foundations she had laid for cultivating the Dao of Heartlessness.

What's more... the children are still down there.

Thinking of her children, Xu Qingying's last bit of hesitation slowly dissipated.

She used to think that the children would never be able to come to the Hongmeng Holy Domain, but now that Lu Qing'an has appeared, the children will definitely be able to come in the future!

If one day, the children really do arrive in the Hongmeng Holy Realm.

Stand in front of her.

I happily called her "Mom."

As a result, she cultivated the Dao of Heartlessness to the point that she no longer even recognized her own daughter...

Xu Qingying felt a tightness in her chest just from thinking about that scene.

never mind.

To hell with the Dao of Heartlessness.

Xu Qingying raised her head.

She glanced at Lu Qing'an first.

Just one glance.

It was moved away quickly.

Then, she turned to Luo Qiushan, took a deep breath, and clasped her hands together.

"Master."

Luo Qiushan didn't urge her.

Just wait quietly.

Xu Qingying paused.

Then, the sound calmed down.

"I've thought about it."

"I have decided to give up cultivating the Dao of Heartlessness."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The entire hall fell completely silent.

Liu Jin, who had been leaning against the stone pillar, was stunned for a moment.

He even doubted whether he had heard correctly, leaned forward, and stared at Xu Qingying for several breaths.

Once he realized that Xu Qingying's expression didn't seem like she was joking, his eyes lit up.

"Junior Sister!"

Liu Jin walked over in a few steps.

His joy was even more pronounced than when he broke through to a higher realm.

"You've finally figured it out?"

Xu Qingying glanced at him.

Liu Jin didn't give her a chance to back out; he had already spoken first.

"You should have figured it out a long time ago!"

"I told you, what's so good about this Dao of Heartlessness?"

"It's powerful, but difficult to repair!"

"Look at our Hongmeng Holy Realm, how many people cultivate the Dao of Heartlessness, and how many of them actually manage to emerge victorious?"

"Besides, if you keep practicing, you'll end up not smiling all day long. You'll abandon your parents, your friends, your apprentices, and in the end, you'll see everyone as a stone."

Liu Jin shook her head.

What's the point of being strong if you live like that?

Xu Qingying's lips twitched slightly as she saw his expression that said, "Junior sister, you've finally abandoned the darkness and embraced the light."

Although what this senior brother said was a bit of an exaggeration, upon closer reflection... it does seem to make some sense.

She nodded.

"Senior brother is right."

Liu Jin clapped his hands.

"Look!"

I told you so!

"Junior Sister is truly insightful!"

Xu Qingying remained silent.

But I sighed inwardly.

Is he perceptive?

She doesn't have any understanding at all.

She simply realized that the Dao of Heartlessness was indeed impossible to cultivate.

Her ex-husband even chased her all the way to the Hongmeng Holy Realm.

Although she knew very well that Lu Qing'an most likely hadn't come after her.

The lovely person is right in front of me.

It's still the same face.

It's still the same person.

Let her go into seclusion again now, and while contemplating "severing all emotional ties," she'll see Lu Qing'an every few days...

Xu Qingying felt that wasn't cultivation.

That's torture!

Perhaps in the end, while others achieve mastery of the Dao of Heartlessness, she will directly achieve mastery of the inner demon path.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but steal another glance at Lu Qing'an.

It was a very light glance.

But they happened to meet Lu Qing'an's gaze.

Xu Qingying's heart skipped a beat.

The next moment, she casually looked away.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Lu Qing'an, however, felt a little amused.

But he didn't laugh.

The corners of her mouth just turned up slightly.

Luo Qiushan finally recovered from the brief shock.

She had actually advised Xu Qingying many times.

This apprentice is highly talented.

Good comprehension.

Most importantly, his Dao heart is very stable.

At least from a normal perspective, that is indeed the case.

With such aptitude, cultivating the Dao of Heartlessness would certainly be no problem for him.

Ke Luo Qiushan always felt it wasn't quite right.

The Great Dao is not something that is better the stronger it is.

What's suitable is the most important thing.

This is especially true for the Dao of Heartlessness.

Even though there are still people in your heart you can't let go of, you insist on cutting ties.

This is not heartlessness.

This is about challenging oneself.

Luo Qiushan had asked Xu Qingying several times why she insisted on cultivating the Dao of Heartlessness.

Xu Qingying only said she wanted to become stronger.

She didn't press the matter further.

Everyone has secrets.

The same applies to apprentices.

As a master, she was willing to teach and protect, but there was no need for her to dig out everything from her disciple's heart.

Luo Qiushan: "You little rascal, you've finally figured it out."

Xu Qingying felt a little embarrassed.

"Thank you for your trouble, Master."
