When Jiang Li found Commander Huang, he was sitting next to a stall, chatting with the stall owner.
This place was quite remote, the stall didn’t have much business, with Commander Huang being the only customer.
The stall owner was dressed in a grey robe, sitting behind a small table covered with a white cloth. Behind him, a flag was erected, making him look like a fortune teller.
The flag read “Psychological Counseling”.
“???” Jiang Li was astounded by this emerging industry in Jiuzhou.
“Psychological counseling?” Commander Huang was drawn towards the flag, which was why he stopped and started the conversation with the stall owner.
“As you can see, my stall aims to provide psychological counseling and guide people through life.”
The stall owner said with some melancholy, ‘Even the peaceful Jiuzhou has its struggles and casualties. Despite the significant progression it has made over the past five hundred years, it still falls short when compared to the Ming Zhong World. I heard that the Ming Zhong World is peaceful and open and hasn’t had a murder in years. Although Jiuzhou might be powerful, its level of social stability is still lacking.”
“Cultivators are constantly faced with the risk of injuries and deaths. Along the way, psychological barriers are bound to develop. I too have experienced a tragic period, thinking life was meaningless and was better off dead. But then I realized that this was a way of evading, and I should confront my tragic life head-on.”
“Later on, I thought that my experience wasn’t unique. There must be many cultivators under huge psychological pressure, contemplating suicide at their lows. If this is the case, why don’t I help the masses by giving them the psychological guidance they require? In its own way, it’s a form of kindness and good deeds.”
“Your insight is exceptional, indeed an ambitious endeavor.” Commander Huang was impressed by the stall owner’s character.
“It’s embarrassing to mention that while you’re busy saving the world, I’ve been immersed in my own misery and trapped in a bubble of loneliness. In front of you, I feel somewhat insignificant.” Upon saying this, Commander Huang’s eyes teared up, and the atmosphere around him became gloomy.
“Not at all, my stall is here specifically for relieving people’s worries.” The stall owner waved his hand, unswayed by Commander Huang’s cultivation aura, “May I ask for your name?”
“My surname is Huang, and I am a commander at the Imperial Palace.”
Commander Huang went on, “I have always been unlucky since I was young. I was born in a small mountain village. One day, I wanted to go see the city, so my father took me along to the market to sell grains, with me on one side of the carrying pole and the grains on the other. After selling all the grains, he forgot about me and went home alone.”
“I was too young then, didn’t remember the way back home, and wandered around aimlessly. A human trafficker noticed that I was by myself and sold me to a demon cultivator. That demon cultivator’s Cultivation Technique was called the ‘Tearful Heartbreak Technique’. The more tragedies he created, the faster his cultivation would progress. He intended to torture me for his cultivation, but luckily, he went mad in cultivation and burned himself to death. ”
“I was only three years old at that time and knew very little about cultivation, let alone what demon cultivation and righteous paths were. I didn’t even know about the existence of the ‘Spiritual Energy Diagram’, a preliminary cultivation technique, and started practicing ‘Tearful Heartbreak Technique’ without any Imowledge.”
“I was trapped in the cultivation cave, and only by practicing the ‘Tearful Heartbreak Technique’ could I leave the cave. There was neither food nor water in the cave, so I was forced to practice this technique in order to leave.”
“It was only later when I learned more about cultivation that I realized this technique was no good. Unfortunately, it was already too late by then. The technique had intertwined with my spiritual root, and it became impossible even to abandon my cultivation and start over.”
“Fortunately, I have always been unlucky, so I do not need to deliberately create tragedies; I am the greatest tragedy myself.”
“When I was breaking through from Qi Cultivation to the Foundation Establishment Stage, something went wrong during the spiritual energy transformation and I fell from the 9th layer of Qi Cultivation back to the 8th. From there, I cultivated back to the 9th layer again and tried to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage, but the spiritual energy transformation went wrong again, and my cultivation fell back to the 8th layer of Qi Cultivation.
“…Your Foundation Establishment is very solid…” The stall owner was at a loss for words with a twitching mouth corner.
“During the Core Formation, I found a quiet cave. Unexpectedly, I encountered a mudslide. I was buried in the mud right after the successful Core Formation and almost suffocated.”
“Later, I joined a team for an adventure. The team consisted of four men and three women, of which three couples decided to retire from the Jianghu, leaving me alone.”
“I also tried to establish a sect, but due to poor management, I was driven out by financial losses.”
“I went to a temple for a fortune prediction. Every time I drew, it was an unlucky slip. Eventually, on one occasion, I drew a moderately lucky slip. I was overjoyed until I found out that all the slips inside the barrel were of good or very good luck, and there was only one moderately lucky one.”
“There was also a woman I once liked and vowed not to marry anyone else.
Later on, I found out that her son was the same age as me.”
” The stall owner, despite his previous experiences with different characters due to his work, had never encountered someone as unfortunate as
Commander Huang.
It’s a miracle he managed to stay alive until now; it must be the blessings of the Human Emperor.
“In truth, isn’t it the case that tragedies happen to everyone?” The stall owner recounted his own story.
“I had some property in the Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty. My family was relatively well-off. I grew up with my younger sister, who is my only family. We were very close, consider her as my pillar of support. I really wouldn’t know what to do without her.”
“Who would’ve thought that my sister would disappear on an assignment for thirty years? Then suddenly, she reappeared, telling me she fell in love with her assignment target, wanted to get married and leave the Tian Sha… leave the organization. She even invited me to her wedding banquet.”
“I was so shocked that I coughed up blood for three days, couldn’t get back on my feet, and left the organization.”
“It took me years to understand that it was inevitable that my sister was going to get married someday. Holding on to the past was not going to let me have a future.”
“After realizing this, I had a radical enlightenment and decided to offer psychological counseling.”
Though the store owner’s experience couldn’t compare to Commander
Huang’s, it was still a sad tale. This made Commander Huang feel a little better.
“Brother?” A crisp voice full of surprise rang out, and the store owner turned around quickly. It was his sister who had gotten married. He couldn’t help shedding tears.
“Why aren’t you at your in-laws?”
Seeing her brother, the sister broke down in tears.
“Don’t even mention that faithless man; he’s already dead!” The sister spoke bitterly but laughed just as quickly, “Brother, shall we go home?”
“Yes.” The store owner was overjoyed. He packed up his table and chairs and left with his sister.
As the Tian Sha Pavilion and other killers vanished with the Tianyuan Emperor City, she thought that her brother, who was the Pavilion Master, must have died in that disaster. She was overwhelmed with grief.
Later, her husband died mysteriously in the Great Zhou Dynasty. She didn’t even know who was responsible.
Whilst sorting through her husband’s belongings, she discovered that her husband and the deputy head of the Tian Sha Pavilion were colluding, planning to use her.
Her marriage was an absolute conspiracy. Her husband merely wanted to toy with her body.
She was in deep sorrow and had come to the vicinity of the Imperial Palace, hoping that the festivities would help her momentarily forget about everything.
Upon arriving here, she heard about a highly skilled psychological counselor and decided to pay him a visit.
The psychological counselor turned out to be her brother!
That led to the touching reunion of the siblings, which moved Commander Huang so much he couldn’t help but cry inconsolably.
Finally encountering someone as unlucky as himself, only for them to immediately find their long-lost sister.
The stools were taken away, and Commander Huang was left standing by himself with nowhere to sit.
Jiang Li felt that it would be better to leave Commander Huang alone to calm down, quickly urging Li Nian’er to leave..
