"How did you acquire it?" Chu Liuxiang asked out of curiosity.

"Well, it started when we met this man in front of a cave…" Yuan proceeded to recall his experience with the Demonic Spider.

"Hearing your story makes me wonder… Does it hurt more for the parents to lose their children, or does it hurt more for the children when they lose their parents?"

"I don't think we can gauge pain…" Yuan shook his head.

"Yuan, have you ever thought about meeting your parents? Your biological parents, I mean."

"Not really. I never had the time to worry about such things, either. They abandoned me for a reason, and there's no point thinking about it since it's already happened."

"You're not even slightest curious why they abandoned you? I sometimes wonder why they really abandoned me." Chu Liuxiang sighed again, and she continued, "Unfortunately, we might never be able to find the answer even if we wanted to ask them. For all we know, they could be dead right now. Even if they're not, it's almost impossible to look for them."

Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Let's stop thinking about such depressing things. Your hair will turn white from stress."
