Savage life

In normal disciple hall, rural area.

The large space that covers anything where the light enters hides a special mystery, it contains the black market.

This area had an extremely special identity, most of the businesses in the normal disciple area were controlled and monopolized by the older disciples who had already reached rank-1 but this area was rumored to be controlled by new disciples.

Despite all of this, this area controls the black market and runs illegal businesses but these illegal activities are not considered wrong in this place because this is the demonic sect itself.

In the midst of this chaos, there was a girl looking down on the area from the cliffside.

She was extremely charming, her innocent eyes with a trace of emptiness could make any man adore her. She was wearing a slim dress that was white containing blood traces.

The scene could make anyone feel an extreme chill within them. She was Fang Xiuying.

Because of her charm, she was named Fang Xiuying which meant a beautiful flower.

Indeed she was a beautiful flower untouched by anyone for ages until she met her doom, she was captured by some bandits.

She was brutally defiled by those beasts, they felt it was a pity to kill her so she was sold to the demonic sect.

After testing her talents she was found to be an average talent, demonic sect relied on the survival of the fittest, it was a world with anarchy.

To be accepted into the normal disciple hall, she had to rely on everything to pass through her competitors.

To be accepted one had to compete with others and kill them, only a few could enter it while most of them would be killed.

Nath had lost his chance to compete because he had lost his consciousness before he could even enter the area to compete. In a sense, he entered by back door methods.

Fang Xiuying after living with the bandits, and being brutally abused, she had finally realized what weak would have to go through so she had learned the bandit's way.

She was merciless without any hesitations but in the arena, she had to sleep with powerful men to survive while killing and betraying others. She used honey traps and her slit tongue to get past all of this.

She was broken, all of this hate and struggle for survival made her extremely empty, she only had one goal and that was to survive.

She had no true meaning in life.

Humans need meaning to live, without meaning they are empty shells, and the meaning they give to them is not eternal, it was just a simple illusion that one gave to ourselves. Humans don't understand it truly. Meanings just complicate themselves and defy their mind, the only meaning one could ever have is to live then comes the pursuit of happiness and their desires.

On the contract, Fang Xiuying was just broken. She did not even have the meaning of survival. She was suffering and she did not realize the reason for her own suffering herself.

Now, she had finally entered the disciples' area but after she entered the area, she herself did not know what to do. Her meaning to enter the disciple's area had finally been fulfilled but that did not make her happy at all.

She was in deep agony that could not be described by her, it could neither be seen nor could it be felt. The shambles in her mind was only hindering her path towards the pursuit of eternity.

She was also in face of bullying by others and she was also being harassed by males for her beauty.

She could not stand herself, the beauty she contained had become the ultimate curse for her, her proud self had died eventually, and she was only a puppet that could not even utilize her shrewdness and intelligence. She was extremely smart and wise, blessed by the heavens but her weakness was her only fault.

Weakness cannot be blamed on anyone, it can only be blamed on yourself for being weak.

This is the law of the world that no one can overcome, from the beginning of time this law has been continuously followed and applied.

Fang Xiuying wanted to escape her misery but she could not, she needed a hope to survive, she wanted to break out of it but she could not, she needed something.

A few months passed and her usual miserable life continued continuously, she wanted hope and soon she got her hope.

A hope, a key to making her rise, she could now finally look at the world brightly.

The person came into her life as an angel, he was a majestic being that stood out from other countless people. He was the only one who did not come for her body, he was the only one who treated her differently.

The only thing that bothered her was that the person was only talking about their skill and talent in other aspects.

In the end, the person was everything to Fang Xiuying as she was ready to give her life for the meaning she had gotten.

Every perspective has its own opinions but that does not mean that every one of them is wrong, on the contrary, every perspective is never wrong nor are they right.

Fang Xiuying who had always been empty, broken, and anxious had finally found peace of mind. She had been given a hope to rise and she was ready to grab it till the end. Unfortunately, hope is as shallow as fear.

Like every day, she was returning home from the brothel she worked, she was not content with herself, she despised herself for it.

She was hungry when she had barely any money to even buy food but just as she was walking, a man with an attractive face that was quite bland appeared, he stood there motionless and looked at her with eyes that had their own sadness hidden within.

Fang Xiuying was confused and even suspicious of the unknown man with an unknown background that was in front of her. Noticing her, the man smiled mysteriously and spoke.

"You don't need to worry about me, I am here because I can see myself within you."

Fang Xiuying did not believe his words and spoke, " I don't even know who you are so how do you believe me to trust you?"

The man spoke after a small brilliance of silence, "Let's start with an introduction miss Fang Xiuying, I am Nath Hua. I reached here after my clan was slaughtered by those evil bastards then my yang essence was sucked dry by an immortal, I almost died but surprisingly I survived. I cried for help but no one helped me, I wanted to escape this life similarly, I could not but I had to survive so I moved on and now I am struggling and I will continue to struggle. I once cried too but I no longer can cry, I felt low and envious too but now I strive to move forward. I won't lie to you but I did some background checks on you and I want your talent so we can make a better world for others. I will help you to escape this spiral. "

Yes, this was all Nath's scheme. He shared his story so she could feel more relatable to him then he could slowly acquire more talents to join him and work under him. Nath had a sharp gaze and a calm soul.

Fang Xiuying did not truly believe it but she felt moved.

Human psychology was extremely complicated, during times of crisis if someone came up and gave them even a small amount of hope then they would grab it and be attached to them unknowingly they would have already joined them and they would continue to change. Humans believe that such an event will not happen to them but that's the misconception that will bring their own doom. This is the black swan event.

Nath had indeed learned all of this as the next successor of the clan leader.

Fang Xiuying could not speak for a while but she mustered up her energy and spoke, " I still can't trust you, how can I trust you? Even if you are speaking the truth why would I even help you?"

Nath looked into her eyes and then spoke ruthlessly," You are not wrong but even if you don't trust me you have nothing to lose, our life as normal people only leads to an invisible plight so miss Fang Xiuying I can only ask you to have faith on me. If you help me then I will help you escape this lifestyle and achieve the peace of mind that both of us want to achieve."

Fang Xiuying then spoke with doubt in her mind, "Indeed it's true that I have nothing to lose, I hope it's worth my time."

Nath Hua then agreed with her and offered her some food to eat.

The spring grew and the autumn destroyed it all then eventually, a year had passed.
