Every time Wuzhuo City mentioned his brothers, he would always cover his face with a cloud of mist. He didn't want anyone to see the expression on his face at that moment.
He missed them, he was persistent, but he was also proud.
People of the world do not understand my pain, do not understand my suffering, do not understand my loneliness, nor do they understand my pride and my satisfaction!
Seeing the pained expression on Wuzhuo City’s face, Chu Yang, who was originally filled with conflicting emotions, couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.
Although Wei Wuyan was dead, his next life was something he would shape with his own hands!
Now, there wasn't much time left since Hong Wuliang's death.
According to common belief, if Wei Wuyan's wife truly died unjustly and her vengeful spirit persisted, she was very likely still around. Of course, as for Wei Wuyan's son... he should have long disappeared into the cycle of reincarnation...
What resentment could a child not yet a year old possibly harbor?
But Wei Wuyan's wife was different.
Therefore, with Wei Wuyan’s death, as long as one was willing to put in the effort to search, or if there was some mysterious connection... then it was not impossible for Wei Wuyan and his wife to meet again!
Chu Yang felt sorrow, but also had some consolation in his heart.
But... Wuzhuo City's situation was a difficult one.
Wei Wuyan's death stirred up Wuzhuo City’s melancholic thoughts, reminding him of his own brothers.
Those brothers were true brothers. Wuzhuo City’s feelings for his brothers had not diminished even after tens of thousands of years, which speaks volumes!
Did they have a next life?
This was a question Chu Yang could actually answer!
But he didn't know how to respond.
Because it also involved a character whose experiences were horrifically tragic—a peerless hero who could bring tears to anyone's eyes!
If this character were to be revealed, exposing the truth to the world, with Wuzhuo City's personality, he would feel such shame that dying would be a light punishment.
Chu Yang could only sigh, saying nothing.
Wuzhuo City watched as the man of unparalleled talent and his two companions dug a grave with the most primitive methods, and in his gaze, there was a strong sense of envy.
I also want my brothers; now that they are dead, I don’t even have the right to dig a grave for them...
Wuzhuo City let out a forlorn sigh: "Chu Yang, you do this very skillfully... and... you also seem to believe in the matters of the next life..."
He forced a smile: "Chu Yang, you know my background, you know my experiences. I want to ask you a question!"
Chu Yang's heart skipped a beat, "What is it?"
"Does that world truly exist?" Wuzhuo City asked.
"It should exist!" Chu Yang thought for a moment and cautiously replied, "In this world, there are many things that are miraculous and inexplicable... but we know that some profound matters truly exist. As ordinary people, naturally, we grow up accepting the education that there is no such world, but at our level... we can cultivate the soul... we will understand that there really might be such a... world!"
"For instance, we all know that above us, there is a Heaven's Gate... that is where the truly strong reside, or rather... a place belonging to legends, where the so-called immortals exist."
"If there are immortals, then naturally, there are also ghosts," Chu Yang said softly.
"If such a world truly exists, if there is a cycle of cause and effect... then..." Wuzhuo City fell silent for a moment, as if a layer of mist enveloped his face again. He softly said, "Do you think... my eight brothers... do they have a next life?"
"Will they also exist in that world below?"
"If one day I die... can I find them?"
Wuzhuo City murmured.
Chu Yang was at a loss for words.
In that world, could they be found? Of course, they could not be found! Because the nine calamity are now all in the Otherworldly Battlefield!
But Chu Yang couldn’t answer; once he did, Wuzhuo City would ask: How do you know?
"Where can I... find my brothers?" Wuzhuo City asked, "Will the heavenly petal orchid be of any use to me?"
