Chapter 31: A scene

Ning Shufen was really bored in the unknown space, she was always cultivating and cultivating. She can't do anything besides cultivating. She didn't know how many days and nights had passed she was locked there. Shufen know that that Yaling was now worried about her well being.

The Spiritual energy was about to burst in her veins, it was so strong and uncontrollable. The pain was getting more and more intense as it goes on. Her pain tolerance was not that high in the first place and her body was still weak from breaking through earlier.

"Tsk"

Shufen bit her lower lip and tried to stop her raging spiritual energy from bursting.

She coughed blood and open her eyes, her spiritual energy was still on rampage. It was dangerous. There was no one to help her, she may be familiar with the spiritual energy but she just had a breakthrough earlier.

'There's no helping it'

Shufen closed her eyes tightly and let the spiritual energy flow however it want. She died once, she could die twice. However she cannot die without getting even with those people. She opened her eyes and suppress her spiritual energy but it wasn't enough. It keeps coming and much more stronger than the last.

'Let it be'

It was the same voice. Shufen recognized the man's voice. He was the owner of this place and her master. She sighed before letting her spiritual energy gone wild and the pain intensified as it rage inside her. Clenching her teeth tightly, she endured it. Black stinky oil went out of her body, the remaining poison was eliminated and the other toxic was also gone. It came from the food that she ate from the Ning Family.

It wasn't cleaned properly and cooked immediately and serve to her. In the past it made her heart beats rapidly fast and sometimes slow, stomach ache and slurred speech.

'BASTARDS!'

The pain was more painful because she had too many toxic in her body. After a while of enduring, the Unknown space became comfortably quiet, and the wind that passed through her was comfortable. As if it was trying to make the pain go away. Shufen felt that her body was like flying, it was warm. She could hear the water dripping but it didn't bother her even a little.

'Hm. The pain lessened'

Shufen opened her eyes slowly. It was the same place but it looks different in her perspective. At first she couldn't see the energy there but now she could. She could feel the powerful spiritual energy that reside inside. Slowly she stood up, the pain was now gone and she could freely move her body.

Shufen could also see someone's past, she walked towards a very isolated side, she saw a man's back. It was awfully familiar and his back also looks like he was in a lot of pain. Enduring what the world have gave him.

She stared at the man. He looks so familiar however she can't remember him, his back looks like Cheng but it was a bit small and lean. Shufen wished that he will turn around and he did. HE did and he was...

He was Cheng.

When he was younger.

His eyes was full of despair, sorrow and a very deep hatred.

A very very very deep hatred.

He was talking to a young woman. She looks like she was his lover. Shufen couldn't hear his screams and the woman's words yet she could feel his pain. The intense pain that he was feeling that time. She could feel the agony and hatred. Hatred not for the woman but to himself.

After some talking the woman bowed and turned around, The woman walked away leaving the man behind. Cheng was staring at the woman's back and his tears fell.

'I'm sorry'

Shufen thought that she was mistaken but the words were repeated for so many times and it was getting more and more painful to hear. The agony in his voice was clear that he was breaking. Shufen heard his screams. It was loud and after a very long scream he stopped.

HE stopped screaming and kneeled. He kneeled, crying.

The image disappeared. Shufen looked away and felt that her cheeks were wet. It was impossible to rain. He, who looks strong experienced something like that so why would she lock herself because she experienced something painful.

Another image appeared and now the man wasn't crying but his face and eyes was cold. It was void of emotion. He was standing in a cliff, staring at the wildness. His long white hair was dancing in the wind together with the leaves. The scene was lonely and sad. The scene changed and it was Cheng kneeling in front of the woman.

He was kneeling and crying. Begging for the woman.

"Please"

HE was hugging the woman's waist. It was raining in the scene, and both of them was already wet as it is.

"please leave already"

She talk like it was easy to say but in reality she took a lot of courage to say that to him. She loved him so much but it wasn't just enough. It wasn't enough for her to sacrifice his life for their love. She didn't want him to feel hurt any longer and decided to end their relationship sooner. They weren't meant to be and she still hadn't accepted that but had to.

The woman was also crying as she stare at him, The man that she fell inlove with wasn't weak, he won't cry no matter how painful it is and yet here he was crying so much in front of her.

"please, please please please. I'm begging you take me back"

The woman couldn't help but sob. They were just never meant to each other but it was so painful and unbearable to think. She had planned this for a very long time but she still couldn't handle everything.

"Why are you pushing me away?"

His words was quiet but the woman still heard it. She couldn't tell him the reason.......

The reason was because she was dying. She just wanted to see him for the very last time and she didn't intend to lock him up in their past. Was she wrong? Can she be selfish? She wanted to live and be his wife but the heaven was against them. Her life was not long. She smiled bitterly. No matter how much and how hard she tried to suppress her sickness, it couldn't be healed.

It couldn't be healed because it was their family's curse.

Shufen wanted to look away but she can't, the woman's eyes was full of agony as she stare at Cheng. She was beautiful, her brown long hair was wet and it complimented her pale face. She tried everything but there was no answer. And she could only let go of him. She didn't want to but she also didn't want to lock him in their painful past. She will die and he will remain, she wanted him to live and had a family that will accept him.

In the past they planned that but it seems she wasn't the girl. She wasn't meant to be the mother of his children. She wasn't meant to be in with him.
