Chapter 963 Meng Xianzi's Story

Ling Yun's clone somehow felt amused seeing Meng Xianzi laugh like that, especially since she always wore a serious look, and her title was always intimidating, even to him.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Nothing." Ling Yun responded to Meng Xianzi's question by shaking his head. "You've never shown your other side before, and this is the first time I've seen you laugh cheerfully like this."

Meng Xianzi smiled and supported her body with her hands behind her back, looking up at the sky. "I'm an assassin, so I can't possibly show this kind of side; otherwise, people won't fear me. Moreover, I've been through many ups and downs in my life, and I've seen too much blood, so I have long forgotten what the feeling of joy felt like. However, many things changed after I lived with you all, and I started to rediscover that kind of feeling."

"Isn't that great?" Ling Yun's clone inquired as he turned to face Meng Xianzi. "What's the point of us having strength but no emotions? Emotions often make us look weak, but they also do a lot for us. Sad, happy, angry, hateful, jealous—all of them make us feel that we are alive, and our lives would be empty without them."

Meng Xianzi suddenly disappeared, but one of her clones immediately sat beside him, and her five other clones began to practice elsewhere. "I was forced to take out my real body, especially since you made the time flow in this place too far ahead. Otherwise, I would lose track of time, and I wouldn't be able to meet Zhou Yu. Hey, there are four clones of each of us now, so I think they can spar with each other. However, now that we are in opposite positions, I must learn from you, particularly because your fighting experience surpasses mine."

"Even though my clones have been training here, we only fight with one another, and we never fight with other people. That's why your fighting skills, having faced countless enemies for so many years, still surpass mine, and I consider myself fortunate to have your clones here." Ling Yun's clone sighed softly before continuing. "If you had requested my clone technique a long time ago, your combat abilities would have been even more unrivaled in the upper realms, and even Senior Tang Chen might have had to think twice about fighting you."

"Hehe." Meng Xianzi's clone chuckled at that. "You look down on Tang Chen too much, you know? His fighting ability is far beyond what you could imagine, and I lost to him several times when we fought without our cultivation."

After that, their four other clones began sparring with each other, and both of them watched them fight.

Meng Xianzi's clone then spoke to him again. "You're right that strength is useless if we don't have emotions; we're like living corpses without them. However, emotions are a weakness for me, and they have brought me a lot of trouble. When I first became an assassin, I let my emotions interfere, and it almost killed me. My failure at that time had a significant impact on both myself and the person who hired me, as my target became aware of the hirer's identity, ultimately leading to the murder of him and his family. I regretted that incident, so I started to shut down my emotions from then on, and you've probably heard the rest of the story from Ling Xi."

"En." Meng Xianxi's clone replied with a nod. "I slaughtered not only the people involved in the massacre of my family, but I also massacred all the members of that organization along with their families, and I didn't spare a single one of them."

"Does that mean you already obtained your dream technique at that time?"

"In fact, I got my dream technique after I ended the existence of that organization, and I got it purely by luck." After he heard that, Ling Yun's clone raised his eyebrows in surprise, and he felt that Meng Xianzi was already too strong, even without that technique. "Back then, I did succeed in killing them, but the injuries I received from their leader were too severe. After all, there were so many people who wanted my head as their trophy, and my condition at that time was very vulnerable, so I decided to retreat to a secluded place to heal myself. Unknowingly, I entered a portal that connected to that ancient ruin, which was the grave of a cultivator in the past named Zhui Mengren, where I met the remnant of her soul, who helped me heal my injury with the remains of her soul power. Afterwards, she passed down to me the dream technique she created and taught me to use it properly, and my name as an assassin became even more feared because of that."
