Walking Through Snow

Han Cai left his quarters with his sword on his back and walked towards the Outer sect hall. It was snowing and not many disciples were out except the ones who had to take care of chores.

As he walked through the snow, He enjoyed the view. The snow was thick and heavy, and it crunched beneath his feet as he walked. He looked around at the snow-covered peaks and valleys, and he couldn't help but think about the stark contrast between the winter's harshness and its beauty.

Han Cai walked leisurely as he took in the view of white snow falling everywhere. He could see the gray robes suffering trying to clean the snow. Picking up herbs. You could feel their shivering hands as they tried to finish their work. But unlike them Han Cai felt this snow was beautiful. This gloomy winter afternoon felt marvelous to him. Suddenly the realization dawned on him, this world is beautiful to the strong while dangerous for the weak.

As he walked, he thought about his own life and cultivation. He knew if he did not have the cheat system at some point in future he would have turned into one of those gray robes.

If he did not have his cultivation, He would be struggling, living in the cold, corner quarters provided by the Ji faction, and he would need to resort to doing chores to earn gold coins.

If he was not a Qi Cultivator, without system he would just be an ordinary 11 year old kid from a rich family , he would be shivering right now and cursing life and whole world. His father spent all his life saving trying to make sure that his son becomes a cultivator. But he would have ended up a gray robe. Han Cai deeply thanked god for the system.

Moving further Han Cai could see stark contrast between the comfortable and luxurious living quarters of the rich and powerful yellow robes, and the simple and austere living quarters of the gray robes.

He wondered how the winter could be so harsh for the poor, yet so beautiful for the rich. He thought about how the rich and powerful had the means to protect themselves from the cold, with warm clothing and heated living quarters, while the poor had to struggle to survive. He felt a deep sense of injustice

but no empathy for those who were struggling.

Han Cai knew he had very selfish personality.

Still He used this opportunity make it a lesson for himself.

He vowed to work harder to improve his own cultivation, so that even if he could not help those in need at least he could help himself.

Han Cai continued to walk through the snow, contemplating life and cultivation, and the harsh beauty of the winter.

Han Cai finally reached in front of the outer sect hall. He went inside and the elder Zhou was sitting at the same place when he came for the first time. There were some yellow robes working around in the hall. Han Cai came near elder bowed and spoke " Greetings elder"
