Simulated Lives: The Sorrow of the Sword Maiden-Chapter 11 – Big liar

"Has brother already left...?"
Heavenly Sword Sect, Sen Sword Peak.
The cave dwelling, already lonely, became even more desolate and cold with only one person left.
The girl sat silently, alone in a chair woven from vines, with a flickering candle beside her, casting shifting shadows on her face.
Without the sun, plants cannot grow.
Without wings, birds cannot fly high.
Without legs, humans cannot run.
To the girl, Xu Xi was such an irreplaceable person, the one and only, never to be replaced.
But now, that one and only had gone far away from her.
Why did it end up like this?
Her injuries had fully healed, and her brother had advanced to the Golden Core Stage. These should have been two extremely joyful events, so why did it turn out like this?
Drip, drip.
Her eyes hollow, as if she had lost the ability to see the world, tears welled up for a long time before finally sliding down uncontrollably.
Even breathing was painful.
Her throat burned and tightened fiercely.
With that overwhelming despair, tears slid down the girl's cheeks, finally gathering at her chin, swaying and falling to the ground with a crisp echo.
The light of the tears shattered, just like the support in the girl's heart, now gone forever.

"I can't cry... I mustn't cry..."
She wanted to scream, to weep, to vent this despair, but the only one who could accept her, the only one who accepted Xu Moli, had completely left.
Moli actually understood.
Long ago, after that argument with Xu Xi.
She had a vague premonition in her heart that one day, Xu Xi would abandon her, this 'burden', and disappear completely from her life.
Unwilling, reluctant.
To prevent that day from coming, Xu Moli did her utmost to learn, hoping to impress her brother with her efforts, to make him feel she wasn't a burden.
But.
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why.
Even though she had tried so hard.
Following Xu Xi's teachings, learning everything she was supposed to.
Why did he still have to leave!?
Was it because she wasn't good enough, because her personality wasn't gentle enough, because her existence made her brother unhappy?
"......"
Xu Moli closed her eyes, letting the tears flow freely.
When her brother first disappeared, she still held onto a glimmer of hope, thinking he might have just gone out briefly.
But after waiting for half a month, even the dullest person should understand that the man would not return.
He abandoned her, this burden, freed himself from useless shackles.
Left freely.
Yes, isn't that only natural? After all, everyone is free, what right does she, this burden, have to demand that Xu Xi always stay by her side?
This ridiculous naive fantasy should have shattered long ago, shouldn't it?
"Liar..."
"Big liar..."
"You promised me you wouldn't leave."
The crying girl sobbed even louder.
In her hand, she clutched a storage ring tightly, left to her by Xu Xi before he left.
It contained many items.
Such as a large number of spirit stones, top-grade formation artifacts, a mountain-like reserve of talismans, and a large amount of cultivation and healing pills.
But in Xu Moli's eyes, these were all meaningless.
Filled with anger, filled with sadness, she hurled the storage ring at the wall.
After a series of bouncing sounds, the storage ring rolled away somewhere, along with its contents, abandoned by Xu Moli.
Meaningless.
All of this is meaningless!
"I only want you, I only want you..." the girl sobbed into her hands, her knuckles turning white from the force.
But no matter how much she cried, no matter how sincere her wishes.
The hero who, during her childhood, braved the scorching sun and hunger, chose to save her when everyone else gave up.
The brother she relied on, absolutely could not lose.
Would never come back.
Yes, never again.
No matter how much she refused to admit it, no matter how afraid she was to face reality, this would not change.
—Suffocating.
As if sinking into the deep sea, submerged in endless despair, Xu Moli felt herself losing all strength, her mind dizzy to the point of being unable to think, ultimately allowing herself to keep falling.
Perhaps, maybe, it was because the sun in her heart had disappeared.
Always out of control in this state.
Always crying in this despair.
After an unknown amount of time, the girl's sobs gradually weakened. When she walked out of the cave dwelling, her eyes had lost their former color, becoming colder than ever.
It was as if she had made some kind of decision.
She walked alone towards the Sen Sword Hall at the mountain's peak.
Not long after, news spread within the Heavenly Sword Sect that the renowned True Inheritor Disciple Xu Xi had disappeared, and his sister Xu Moli had become the second True Inheritor Disciple of the Master of Sen Sword Peak.
Some were puzzled, some were confused, some were surprised.
Amidst the discussions throughout the sect, Xu Moli's performance was exceptionally brilliant.
Like a dazzling meteor streaking across the sky, she displayed unparalleled talent, even surpassing her brother, advancing to a Foundation Establishment Cultivator at an even faster pace.
She moved forward relentlessly, as if trying to prove something.
Xu Moli's steps grew increasingly aggressive.
Gradually, the commotion she caused in the Cultivation World grew larger, whether it was delving into places of inheritance or crossing realms to slay formidable foes. The Righteous Path saw her as an Immortal seed, while the Demonic Path hated her as a thorn in their side.
The commotion was so great that even the mortal cities far from the Cultivation World had rumors about the girl.
"Sword Immortal."
"Favored by the Heavenly Dao."
"Reincarnation of an Immortal."
These were all praises for her.
In Blackstone City, when Xu Xi first heard these evaluations, he couldn't help but pause for a moment, especially at the so-called praise of being favored by the Heavenly Dao, which made him want to laugh.
Afterwards.
Xu Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
The worry he felt from leaving the girl for so long was eased and relieved.
"That's great, it seems that even without me, Moli can live well in the Cultivation World. This way, I have nothing to worry about."
Feeling his increasingly sluggish and weak body.
Xu Xi smiled.
To be honest, his current state was very poor, even worse than being in a wheelchair in reality.
Xu Xi had thought more than once about ending this simulation early by suicide.
But every time he had this thought.
Moli's image would appear in his mind.
He couldn't help but want to stay a little longer, to watch a little longer, because after the simulation ended, the two of them, in different times and spaces, would never have the chance to meet again.
