Chapter 577: Are You Worthy of Chao Lu?
Yun Wuxin withdrew her gaze and summoned the fairy sword to embark on a sea voyage.
Dragging the suitcase and continuing forward.
"Long time no see, Chuyou."
"It’s been a while, Heartless."
Yun Chuyou stepped on the clouds, she took the initiative to get closer and reached out her hand.
Yun Wuxin avoided her palm, not too far away, and still got touched on the temples of her hair.
"What are you doing?"
"You look thinner, did you not eat well in Yingzhou?"
"I didn’t get thinner, but you got fatter," Yun Wuxin said casually, "Don’t stand too close, I’m not used to it."
"As girls grow up, it’s always difficult to get close," Yun Chuyou said sadly.
"You’re talking as if you’re not a girl," Yun Wuxin’s tone was a bit impatient and accommodating, she changed the topic, "When did you come back?"
"This morning."
"It’s only been a week since you left Europa, but the speed of the ship is not that fast."
"I can fly on a sword."
"Your skills are not even at the level of a golden immortal, can you really fly on a sword across the sea?" Yun Wuxin didn’t believe it.
The two sisters’ abilities are similar, even though Yun Wuxin is always slacking off, they can’t become too different from each other.
Both sisters are gifted, but Yun Wuxin has a higher talent for cultivation, while Yun Chuyou has a higher talent for swordplay.
If we combine Yun Chuyou and Yun Wuxin’s strengths and weaknesses, they would be unprecedented geniuses. Unfortunately, the twins are like this – the more similar they look, the more they have to distinguish themselves to prove that they are completely different from each other.
Yun Wuxin always wants to distinguish herself from Yun Chuyou, but Yun Chuyou doesn’t have such intentions.
But in reality, their differences are still significant. After they turned ten, it was rare for anyone to mistake Yun Wuxin and Yun Chuyou for each other. It was almost instantly recognizable.
It’s like the difference between snowflakes and solid ice.
"Now that you’re back, stay here," Yun Chuyou said. "I went to Europa and gained a lot, but I don’t plan on taking another trip. The scenery of foreign lands is beautiful, but it’s not our homeland."
"In your eyes, there’s no homeland, only these mountains and clouds," Yun Wuxin nonchalantly pierced through her sister’s words. "Mountains aren’t great because they’re tall; they’re great because they have immortals living on them, a house, and the heart of a woodcutter that can withstand loneliness."
Yun Chuyou asked, "You could graduate from Far East University anytime, but you still want to go back to Yingzhou? Are you still mad at me for being born?"
Yun Wuxin didn’t reply.
"I can apologize to you."
"You should apologize, not me."
"Besides you, there is no one in the world who can make me compromise, let alone have that worth." Yun Chuyou was both arrogant and sincere.
Yun Wuxin frowned, "I don’t want to argue with you when we first meet, it’s meaningless, but I really dislike your arrogance."
Yun Chuyou smiled indifferently, "Your arrogance, it used to be in me. We are sisters, family, identical twins. We used to be… no, once we were one person."
"I am who I am."
"Sorry, I said some things that made you unhappy," Yun Chuyou softly said, "It’s hard for me to change this habit. After a long time of not seeing each other, it’s inevitable to be emotional. But usually, I can control it."
Yun Wuxin retorted, "You are too emotional, but that doesn’t mean I’ll be affected by emotions like you. I’ve climbed back to Baiyujing, my state of mind is clear now. I can still see mountains as mountains, and words won’t affect me. So the more you say, I’ll just let them pass through like a breeze. It won’t influence my judgment. You still can’t get used to walking on the ground, huh? You’d rather fly than walk."
Yun Chuyou showed a teasing expression for the first time, "Did you want me to travel all the way back from Europa?"
Yun Wuxin said calmly, "You have been immortals for too long, standing on the mountain and looking down on the world, naturally seeing everyone as ants. Unless you walk the streets of a thousand households, experience the bustling human world, you will never understand."
Yun Chuyou said seriously, "I went to Europa, but it wasn’t a leisurely journey. It’s not necessarily about gaining enlightenment like you in the mortal world. There are many different paths to cultivation, but most of them lead to the same goal. What worries me is that my heart still leans towards the immortal path, while you have lingered in the mortal world for too long. It might affect your state of mind. You have always been smarter than me, but great wisdom can also lead to great harm. You tend to overthink and easily go astray."
"Astray?" Yun Wuxin asked. "What kind of astray? What do you consider as astray?"
Yun Chuyou didn’t answer, she simply extended her hand to touch her sister’s cheek.
"We have a deep connection, how could I not know what you’re feeling?"
"If your heart isn’t in chaos, why would you need to walk the mountain path to find peace of mind?"
"I can fly thousands of miles on my sword, from the blue sea to the green Wuyu, but I only observe from a distance and don’t get caught up in it."
"I hope that when I climb Mount Kunlun in the future, you can come with me. If you don’t go, I will be very lonely. I will wait for you for a long time."
"I don’t want to see you become a pile of dirt after hundreds of years."
Yun Chuyou wanted to say something, but Yun Wuxin slapped her hand away.
A wave of icy chill filled the air between the two of them, like a gentle winter dance.
Yun Wuxin said calmly, "Your arrogance hasn’t diminished, you still like to make decisions for others. We are connected, sharing joys and sorrows. Because of this, you should respect my feelings even more."
Yun Chuyou frowned, "We are sisters, I love you deeply and I treat you sincerely. Of course I will respect you."
"Yes, sister, I love you too. As family, as sisters," Yun Wuxin exhaled icy white mist softly, "but in the end, we are still two individuals. No matter how close we are, we cannot become the same person."
"I know."
"You better know," Yun Wuxin turned to the side, her tone still calm, "you always thought I was angry at you, so you ran away to Yingzhou."
"Isn’t it true?"
"Yes, and no."
Yun Wuxin whispered, "I am indeed feeling a bit lost, and I must figure something out. Perhaps this shared connection is proof of our blood ties, but it is also a curse that cannot be broken. I can hardly tell the difference between you and me anymore."
Yun Chuyou paused, "You went to Yingzhou to try to separate yourself from me?"
"I need to find myself again," Yun Wuxin said calmly. "My emotions have never been as rich as yours, and I’m easily influenced and affected by you. It’s a pressure you may not understand. Every time you use your powers to suppress your emotions, it inevitably affects me as well. But as long as we are physically apart, I can shield myself from that influence."
Yun Chuyou was completely unaware, "You should have told me earlier."
"Telling you wouldn’t have made a difference. After all, I am mindless, and you are Chuyou… I am the one who is mindless."
Yun Wuxin spoke with some self-mockery, gradually fading away the self-mocking expression and continued.
"I gained quite a lot from my trip to Yingzhou, even though I didn’t actually accomplish much. But I felt a sense of relaxation that I haven’t felt in a long time… You’re right when you say that I am drawn to the vibrancy of the human world. I truly love that place, where I can exist as myself. If we continue to have this shared connection, we would easily become the same person or rather, I would easily become like Yun Chuyou."
"This is an outcome I cannot accept."
She took a deep breath and spoke firmly.
"I don’t want to stay in Baiyu Jing and this mountain, and it is only a matter of time before we separate."
"I am still a member of the Baiyu Jing immortals, and my path of cultivation is still improving day by day. I will climb Kunlun Mountain, but maybe not now, and maybe not with you."
"Be more open-minded, sister. If you truly love your sister and not just your own other half, then you should be able to understand me."
After saying everything she wanted to say, Yun Wuxin reached out and gently placed her hand on Yun Chuyou’s shoulder.
"Let’s stop here for now. Let’s go back home. Father and Mother are waiting for us."
Yun Chuyou watched her sister’s receding figure, with no change in her expression.
She remained calm, even though her sister’s words rendered her speechless and went against all her expectations.
But she could only accept the current situation, and she must accept it.
Only in the deep ocean of the heart, there floats an iceberg, and it silently cracks open.
It’s not big, but very deep.
The crack is on the part of the iceberg that emerges from the sea, and it extends beneath the surface, dark and narrow, with no bottom in sight.
…
The gentle breeze brushes the mountain ridge, while the bright moon shines on the great river.
Still, Avi had to dash around for a living. Life is not easy, sighed Avi.
In the second round of blind dates, Bai Wei changed into another outfit. He never expected that his younger sister had bought several sets of different clothes for blind dates.
But indeed, there was no suit.
Bai Wei came to another blind date location with the thought of leaving early. It was a quaint and peaceful teahouse.
Knocking on the door and entering, there was no one else inside except for the person they were going on a blind date with. Bai Wei took a look and noticed that the person in the red dragon robe didn’t seem friendly.
Ying Mu glared angrily and immediately launched a verbal attack that hit them right in the soul.
"Can you live up to Chao Lu’s expectations?"
