"Brother Yuan is truly… unfathomable…" Xiao Hua could barely stand still at this moment, feeling as though her common sense regarding the Cultivation world had been flipped upside-down by Yuan's profound existence.

"Are you okay, Xiao Hua? Your expressions are more exaggerated than usual." Yuan suddenly said to her, completely unaware of how heaven-defying his own existence is.

"X-Xiao Hua is fine…" she nodded a moment later, and she continued, "But is Brother Yuan really fine? Does your body feel weird? You did just breakthrough three times in the blink of an eye, after all…"

"I feel perfectly fine," he said. "In fact, I feel even better than normal!"

And then he said, "By the way, Xiao Hua, remember that Spirit Crystal you bought from the auction house? Since it's similar to a monster core, maybe I can eat it too?"

When Xiao Hua heard his words, she immediately shook her head with a horrified expression and spoke in a stern voice, "Absolutely not, Brother Yuan! You cannot eat the Spirit Crystal! It contains spiritual energy that rivals even Spirit Grandmasters! And it's nothing like a monster core! Brother Yuan will definitely explode into a million pieces after eating it!"

"If you say so…" Yuan said with a slightly disappointed expression, as he was curious about the Spirit Crystal's taste.

A few minutes later, Xiao Hua suddenly said, "Brother Yuan, he's coming back."

Yuan turned to look at the cave, and the middle-aged man slowly walked out of the cave with an emotionless expression, almost as though he'd lost all of his will to continue living.

When Yuan saw the hopelessness in the middle-aged man's blank eyes, he also felt a slight pain in his heart, as he understood what the middle-aged man was feeling at this moment very well.

After living for so many years as a cripple who cannot even leave his own bed without another's assistance, even the world's toughest man would experience depression, much less someone as young and innocent as Yuan, and it was inevitable that he would have thoughts about ending his own life to make things easier for his little sister.

"That man… he's lost the will to live," Yuan mumbled in a low voice. "If only there's something we can do to relieve that sorrow."
