Acceptance

"Too beautiful." Ever since his youth, Xue Ying had walked countless roads, all over the world, yet never had he experienced such feelings of intoxication from the ‘Earth.’

Earth, boundless and vast.

Earth, akin to the love of parents and tolerance for their child.

Earth was the foundation of the World. The inexorable growth of plants, the aroma of flowers dispersing through the air, birds flying freely in the sky, and the gurgling water flowing through the creeks… Everything was just a small piece of the Earth. Since the founding of the Myriad Existences, the Earth was filled with vitality, and in return, the Myriad Existences were able to sustain life because of the Earth, never going back to the void of its empty past.

"Earth."

"The World."

Xue Ying shut his eyes.
