Chapter 3361: Even if It Was Love, It Was Probably a Tragedy
Comprehend love?
Ning Shu: Even if it was love, it was probably a tragedy—a soul-crushing tragedy.
One that could torment a person to death.
After thinking it over, Ning Shu decided to go to the City of Water.
There was no reason to give up now. She had already endured so much pain—if she didn’t get something out of it, she’d be furious.
Anyway, there was no rush to do tasks. Task-takers had plenty of time.
Standing in the City of Water, Ning Shu thought of the world tree from the auction.
With a world vessel and five world origins, another powerhouse would undoubtedly be born.
The problem was—who had that many merit points?
Ning Shu found a spot to sit down—not the same place as before. Back then, she had clung to a pillar, wailing while surrounded by people.
Better to change locations.
She found a seat, crossed her legs, closed her eyes, and nervously swallowed. She wasn’t sure if she would experience the same thing as before.
If it happened again, she wasn’t sure she could handle it.
Again and again.
Her fingers trembled involuntarily.
Ning Shu took a deep breath and began to relax.
She sank into a trance. Everything around her disappeared. She was sitting in a vast, misty void, unable to hear or see anything.
Was it happening again?
Ning Shu wanted to stop, but she simply couldn’t.
Moisture from the surroundings surged into her body, and she could hear the gentle murmur of a flowing stream beside her. Droplets of water dripped onto her body.
One drop after another, falling onto her, stinging slightly. Ning Shu couldn’t help but wonder if, given enough time, these water droplets would pierce through her soul.
Water was the softest thing, yet it had its own strength.
The winding Yellow River—how many obstacles, how many temptations? Yet, no matter how many mountains stand in its way, no matter how many twists and turns it takes, its will to flow eastward into the sea never wavers, its mighty and bold steps never pause for even a moment.
Waves crash against the reefs—even if they shatter into pieces, they never retreat. One after another, they surge forward, wave after wave, battling bravely, until the reef is riddled with holes and scars.
Dripping water on a cliff—day after day, year after year, unwavering in its goal, never arrogant, never impatient. Drip after drip, thousands upon thousands of times, until it finally bores a hole into the stubborn rock.
Truly, as it was said, the softest thing under the heavens conquers the hardest.
Water changes according to its vessel—round when it meets round, square when it meets square. It can be as straight as a carved line or coil like a dragon. Thus, it was said, water has no constant form.
Water moves with opportunity—through motion, it gains vitality; through vitality, it progresses. That was why it held endless possibilities.
If a person could cultivate a heart as clear as water, as still as water, there would be no greater virtue.
Ning Shu found herself shedding tears.
May my heart be like water—unconstrained, unrigid, unfrozen, unobsessed, nurturing all things.
When Ning Shu woke up, she wiped her face. She had cried again.
It must be because spring had arrived—why else would she be so sentimental?
No, that wasn’t right. Spring was a time of revival, the season for animals to mate—why would it make her sentimental?
Ning Shu rubbed her eyes and noticed the people around her staring, their gazes filled with surprise.
She was a little confused. What are you all looking at? Never seen someone cry before?
Ning Shu stood up. In her current state, she really wasn’t in the right condition to continue comprehending the ordinance.
Yeah… her heart had been so fragile lately.
She decided to head to the trading plaza to see if there was any news about world origins.
If there really was one, she’d sell everything she had to get it.
Ning Shu turned to look at the person following her. “Why are you following me?”
It was a burly, bearded man. He looked a little embarrassed as he spoke. “How did you comprehend the ordinance?”
