C100 heartless person

"Since all of you have a request for this old man, what are you prepared to use?" The elder said with a cold expression.

"With sincerity." Nangong Yu gave a brief answer.

He then took out a few dirty dates from his pocket and held them in his hands. "Elder, there's nothing good left. I only have these few dates on my body. Elder, please don't mind them."

The Elder pointed to a spot not too far away, "You want to exchange these jujube fruits for Sacred Heart Fruits?"

"Yes." The little girl nodded affirmatively.

"You can go back, but not even a thousand gold would be enough to exchange for a Sacred Heart Fruit. Not to mention these few broken dates of yours, you only want to exchange for a Sacred Heart Fruit." After all, this was a sacred treasure of Qing Qiu, how precious was it?

"Elder, you have lived for so many years, yet you do not know how painful it is for us mortals to live and die from illness. I only have my grandfather, if he dies, I will have no one to rely on, no matter what. Elder, can't you be merciful enough to save my grandfather?"

At first, Nangong Yu didn't want to meddle in this matter, but the little girl was truly pitiful, so she still interrupted, "The elders are respected, they should be merciful."

However, this elder of the fox race seemed to have the same moral character as Rong Xiu.

"Heh heh, mercy? Could it be that in order to be merciful, this old man has to give out the sacred artifact of Qing Qiu? "Also, Qing Qiu has no relationship with the mortal world. Since you guys trespassed into Qing Qiu, this old man has yet to blame you for it. This is already showing great mercy." The elder stood with his hands behind his back, "The death of a mortal has nothing to do with Qing Qiu. If a mortal sick can obtain a sacred object in Qing Qiu, then wouldn't a sacred item be as lowly as an ant? It's even called a sacred object. "

"It turned out that in the hearts of the elders, the value of one's life is inferior to that of a sacred item." Tears fell from her eyes, "Alright, then I'll use my body to defile your supreme divine object!"

With that, he took a big stride and rushed towards the lotus pond.

Nangong Yu was shocked. He hadn't thought that this little girl would do such a shocking thing in order to save his family.

Fortunately, someone had cast a spell. Only after doing so did he manage to recover and lie down on the ground.

"Rao Xiu, step down." The elder walked over.

As for the elder who had changed his appearance to that of a cultivator, it turned out that this was just a test.

Rong Xiu withdrew, his face filled with dissatisfaction.

"Elder." Nangong Yu cupped his hands.

"Yes." The Elder walked up to her and said, "Little girl, do you really want the Sacred Heart Fruit that much?"

He hastily got up and stood in front of the elder, "Yes, I must bring it back. Grandfather is in the most pain, I cannot let him leave me."

The elder revealed a rare kind smile in front of her. "This old man appreciates your courage, but …"

"But what?" She could sense that the elder was trying to help her.

Of course, Nangong Yu could also feel that after his earlier actions, she had already passed the test.

"It's just that the Sacred Heart Fruit requires one to use their heart to exchange for it. It's a pure heart, a tender heart, and a kind heart." As a Fox Elder, it was his duty to protect the Sacred Heart Fruit. Therefore, the Fox species couldn't leave it behind. Once the Sacred Heart Fruit matured, it could be used to cure all sorts of diseases.

If the Sacred Heart Fruit was gone, then one had to have a pure heart to replace it. They had to put it in the lotus pond to nurture it and protect it as it slowly grew.

After a moment of thought, he asked, "Is my heart okay?"

"Little girl, are you sure you want to use your heart to exchange?" Her courage was truly commendable.

"Elder, I'm not even afraid of death, why would I be afraid of being heartless? But if I die, I won't be able to bring the Sacred Heart Fruit back. " Thinking of this, he turned his head to Nangong Yu and said, "I'll have to ask the Emperor to help me give the Sacred Heart Fruit to my grandfather. Also, tell him that if he does anything outside, he'll be doing very well."

She couldn't let his grandfather know that she was already dead. Even if he couldn't cure his grandfather's illness with the Sacred Heart Fruit, he still had to let her grandfather have the thought of living on.

Nangong Yu suddenly felt that it would be difficult for him to agree to help his with this matter, so he didn't reply.

"Although you have no heart, you will not die. It is just that you will no longer have joy, anger, or sorrow. Live on like a zombie." Surviving like this was more painful than death.

She smiled and said, "That's good, that's good."

There was no need to die. He could continue to accompany his grandfather and not let him be alone. This was a heavenly blessing.

The elder felt his heart ache. This child really did have a heart of filial piety.

The process of taking the heart was very painful, but she had to persevere on at the age of 15. Afterwards, the elders took care of her and the Sacred Heart Fruit, bringing her home together.

When his grandfather consumed the Sacred Heart Fruit, he immediately recovered. However, there was no longer any feeling of happiness, anger, sadness or happiness. He only looked at the scene in front of him silently.

Outside the thatched cottage.

"I really don't understand what you humans are thinking. Could it be that the lives of others are more important than your own?" Would it be nice to have an old man treat his granddaughter like a puppet every day?

"How could a cold-hearted fox like you understand?" His eyes became lifeless.

"A heart of stone, after all, is better than a heart of stone."

With that, in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from her sight and returned to Qing Qiu.
