Chapter 544: Living Is Less Suffering, Death Is Peaceful!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Listen?
Was this something a 22-year-old girl should say?
Even a person in his 70s or 80s wouldn’t say such things.
Tao Zhiming smiled bitterly, and said, “You’re only 22 years old. Your real life has just begun. Why would you say that you’ve already lived your beautiful life?”
Shen Yan said, “You’re not much older than me, and age doesn’t represent seniority. Everyone’s life is different, so naturally, 1 think I’ve already spent the best time. Is there a problem?”
Tao Zhiming said, “What you said makes sense.”
Tao Zhiming actually agreed with Shen Yan.
However, Tao Zhiming did not have a wooden head. He was just more persistent than the others.
Then, Tao Zhiming asked curiously, “When do you think your good times were?”
Shen Yan said bluntly, “The summer when I was 18.”
Tao Zhiming said, “An 18-year-old’s summer is indeed a very good time.”
Shen Yan said, “You might have misunderstood.”
“Misunderstood?” Tao Zhiming was even more puzzled.
Shen Yan said, “My best time was indeed that summer when 1 was 18 years old, but that wasn’t because 1 wanted to keep time in that eternal moment, because my dream came true that summer.”
Tao Zhiming asked, “Dream?”
Shen Yan said, “To attend my only relative, my grandmother, on her deathbed.”
Tao Zhiming was stunned.
If that was the case, then wasn’t that 18-year-old summer a time that made Shen Yan heartbroken?
After all, Shen Yan’s only family member had left. In this world, she had nothing to worry about. Naturally, there was nothing to remember.
However, Tao Zhiming could not understand why Shen Yan said that it was her dream to take care of her grandmother on her deathbed.
Shouldn’t Shen Yan have a bigger dream?
“Was it your dream to take care of your grandmother in her last moments?” Tao Zhiming asked.
He could not deny that retirement was a natural thing, but wasn’t that too superficial for a dream?
However, Shen Yan sneered, and said, “I can’t compare to you guys. 1 didn’t even graduate from junior high school and entered society at the age of 15.1 don’t have a family background, education, or connections. 1 don’t have any advantages worth using. If I continue to live in this life, I will only be mediocre. In the future, 1 can only worry about three meals a day. Then why should 1 continue to live?”
Tao Zhiming fell silent.
It was not only Tao Zhiming.
Many netizens in the Heavenly Dao live-stream were the same.
They had thought that Shen Yan was suffering from severe depression.
But listening to Shen Yan’s remarks, what was the point of living long?
If she lived, she would suffer.
“Why do 1 feel that this Shen Yan is the one who is sober?”
“If you don’t want to live anymore, how can you be sober in the human world?”
“She might be one of those people who sees her hopes come to an end.”
“You guys make it sound so noble. Isn’t she just running away? To put it more clearly, she’s a piece of trash, a complete coward!”
“That’s right. I owe more than 3,000,000 yuan. 1 never thought of committing suicide.”
There were still many netizens who could not understand Shen Yan’s thoughts.
Of course, there were also many netizens who felt that Shen Yan had seen the end of her life. Living was just waiting for death. There was no hope at all.
Shen Yan said, “Don’t talk about helping me or anything like that. It’s unrealistic to talk about exchanging lives while living. I’m really hopeless. I’m a complete cripple. Actually, this world is very beautiful. If there’s a next life, 1 won’t come again.”
Tao Zhiming asked, “Not everyone is born to stand at a high point, even though there are many nobles on the way. I’m like this. In terms of background, I’m not much better than you.”
Shen Yan retorted, “How can that be the same? Even if I have a benefactor in the future, even if 1 can live a good life in the future, this is not the life I want.” “What kind of life do you want?” Tao Zhiming asked.
Shen Yan said, “I just want to suffer less when I’m alive, and I can be happy when I’m dead.”
Tao Zhiming began to understand Shen Yan’s inner thoughts.
He was silent for a long time and did not speak.
Shen Yan continued, “Boss, 1 won’t disturb you anymore.”
With that, Shen Yan walked away.
Tao Zhiming did not chase after her. He just watched as Shen Yan left. Today, he was taught a lesson by a girl in her early twenties.
Moreover, this lesson had benefited him greatly.
Tao Zhiming seemed to know that Shen Yan could not survive.
Even if he could help Shen Yan once and save her for a while, he could not save her forever.
Tao Zhiming was also a Chosen One.
In this 8-star difficulty dungeon of the Otherworldly Beasts of Mountains and Seas, he could not even protect himself.
How could he have the ability to protect Shen Yan?
Moreover, Tao Zhiming had never thought of protecting Shen Yan.
Shen Yan was the kind of person who did not care about death. Even if she died here, she would not feel any despair.
Taking a step back, even if Shen Yan really had the ability to pass the trial, she might not think about how to survive.
Furthermore, Shen Yan did not have the ability to do so.
At this time, in Area B2.
A five-year-old girl looked upstream. Red fish with wings were flying over the waterfall.
The netizens in the Heavenly Dao’s live-stream were naturally very clear about this fish.
It was the Ying Fish recorded in the Classic Of Mountains and Seas.
These Ying Fish might not even be considered lv.3 otherworldly beasts.
But who said that there couldn’t be low-level mutated beasts in Area B2?
Up until now, there were many low-level mutated beasts in Area B of the second trial.
Of course, there was no lack of otherworldly beasts above lv.10.
Su Qianqian leaped onto the waterfall.
One by one, Ying Fish flew past her.
She also grabbed a Ying Fish that weighed only 1.5 kg.
The Ying Fish in Su Qianqian’s hand continued to flap its wings at a frequency comparable to a hummingbird’s.
The wings were clearly so transparent, and they were like the wings of a cicada, but they could support the weight of Ying Fish, and they had to be so high.
When Su Qianqian turned around and looked down, she saw a purple-red object moving under the waterfall.
The netizens in the Heavenly Dao live-stream also saw everything clearly through Su Qianqian’s live-stream.
“Water snake?”
“The water snake is so big. It feels like it’s comparable to the Titanoboa, right?”
“Could it be the Titanoboa?”
“Perhaps there might be Titanoboas among the Otherworldly Beasts of Mountains and Seas.”
Bang!
The next moment…
