Cultivation Online

Chapter 655: Yu Rou’s Decision

“Sorry for keeping this a secret from you two, Meixiu…” Yu Rou sighed a moment later.

“No, I should be the one apologizing. There have been many moments where I pondered about telling you. But seeing you so happy to be his ‘little sister’, I didn’t want to ruin it for you or him by tearing apart your status as brother and sister.” Meixiu shook her head.

“I understand. After all, that’s also why I didn’t reveal the fact that I knew about it. I didn’t want to ruin our relationship as siblings.” Yu Rou smiled.

She then turned to look at Chu Liuxiang and continued, “Can you tell me about Brother Yuan’s life in the orphanage? I have always been curious, but I was also too scared to ask about it since that would give everything away.”

“Of course! It would be my pleasure!”

To Yu Rou’s surprise, Chu Liuxiang didn’t object to her request, as she was certain that Chu Liuxiang would rather keep everything a secret just to tease her.

“But in return, you’ll tell me about Brother Yuan’s life in the Yu Family. The good memories. I already know all of the bad ones, after all.” Chu Liuxiang added.

And for the rest of the journey, Chu Liuxiang and Yu Rou would share their memories with Yuan to each other, quickly becoming friends.

‘What a surprise…”

This left Meixiu profoundly surprised, as she did not expect the two of them would suddenly become friends. In fact, she had expected some sort of rivalry between them, especially since Yu Rou is very protective when it comes to Yuan being with other women.

A few hours later, they arrived at Pang City, and Feng Yuxiang descended directly in front of the Luo Family’s manor.

“W-Welcome back, Seniors!” The guards bowed to them.

A couple of minutes later, they went to Yuan’s room.

“Young Master, I have returned from the trip.” Feng Yuxiang knocked on the door.

“Brother Yuan! I am here!” Yu Rou shouted in an excited voice.

Yuan appeared before them shortly after hearing their voices.

“Hello, Yu Rou. It’s been a while—”

Yu Rou pounced on Yuan and hugged him tightly before he could even finish his sentence.

“I have missed you very much, brother!”

Yuan returned her hug, “I missed you too.”

“Anyways, why did you want to meet with us so suddenly?” Yuan asked her once they entered his room.

“Well, I was worried about you.”

“Worried about me?” Yuan raised his eyebrows.

“Of course! I heard that you’d killed thousands of people and exterminated an entire sect! Is that true?! I couldn’t believe it when I heard it! After all, there’s no way that you could do such a thing!”

“Oh… So it’s about the Blood Sect, huh?” Yuan sighed.

“Brother… You…”

“It’s true. I destroyed the Blood Sect and killed thousands of their disciples,” he said with a serious expression.

Yu Rou’s eyes widened.

Although she already knew in her heart that it was true, she had to hear it from Yuan’s mouth to completely believe it.

“Are… Are you okay…?” Yu Rou asked him after snapping out of her daze.

“Yes, I am fine.” He nodded.

“Why…? Why would you do such a thing? It’s not like you…” Yu Rou stared at him in the eyes with a worried gaze.

“The Blood Sect is an evil sect. They have killed many innocent people, and they would have continued to do so if someone didn’t stop them. They also killed one of my first friends in this world, so I took it upon myself to stop them. I guess you can even call it revenge.”

“I wasn’t expecting to destroy their sect, but fortunately for me, their Sect Leader had gathered all of his disciples, allowing me to wipe them out in one go.”

“I don’t expect you to understand my feelings, but if you’d met the Blood Sect— these insane beasts, you would also want to destroy them.”

“Brother…”

Yu Rou was speechless, but she could tell that her brother had changed drastically since the last time she saw him.

He no longer looked as immature and innocent as before, and there was even a hint of coldness deep within his eyes that she almost didn’t notice.

“If my actions had disappointed you, I am sorry, but I had to do what was necessary to save this city and other innocent people.”

Yu Rou closed her eyes and took a deep breath, silently digesting all of this information.

“It’s not that I am disappointed, brother. I am just surprised— flabbergasted that you had the capabilities to do such a thing. In the end, this is just a game, and it’s not illegal to kill others in this world, so I completely understand.”

Hearing Yu Rou’s words, Yuan wanted to tell her that Cultivation Online might exist somewhere in their universe, but he decided to tell her about it later since he didn’t want to overwhelm her with so much information so quickly.

“Thank you for understanding, Yu Rou.”

“What are your plans now?” Yu Rou asked something later.

“We’re going to climb the Stairway to Heaven and transcend to the next realm. Do you want to come with us? We have more room if you want to follow us.” Yuan said.

Yu Rou pondered for a moment before shaking her head, “I wanted to follow you before, but I think it would be better to stay down here for now.”

“Eh? Why?” Yuan asked in a slightly dumbfounded voice.

“First of all, most of my time is now spent on training myself, and when I do have the time to play, I’d rather just rest. In other words, I have no time to be in this world.” Yu Rou sighed.

“You sound like an old man who’s devoted all his time to work.” Chu Liuxiang suddenly said.

“Well, I cannot deny that.” Yu Rou shrugged.

“But that’s not the only reason why I want to stay down here. Let me explain.” Yu Rou continued.
