The Lesson

Looking at the pigtail on the Drifter's head, Jing Jiu found it familiar.

He remembered after some thought that he had done a same pigtail for Zhao Layue back when they made their way to Shenmo Peak.

The Drifter's pigtail should be Zhao Layue's doing.

It seemed that Zhao Layue was quite pleased with her achievement; she flicked the pigtail with her fingers.

"The one I did for you was better" remarked Jing Jiu.

Zhao Layue could sense a hint of regret in his words, and said, "But I didn't like it."

There were many undesirable things in human lives, like the unattainable things and the departures.

And the white soup in the double hotpot would always dry up first; Zhao Layue didn't like having long hair…and everybody would leave this world.

Jing Jiu had accepted all this now.

Back when the Emperor gave him the Jade Egg, it was meant for Jing Jiu to take care of his son after his death.
