Chapter 518: those who Shouldn't Belong to This World

A person from another world?

Yeh Tianxie’s mind was in chaos. Suddenly, his whole body trembled, and he urgently grabbed Hua Qimeng’s shoulders, saying, ‘Where did you learn all this? Is it… is it Xian’er… Li Xian’er who told you? Is it!’

The ability to know things that others could never possibly know belonged only to his Xian’er. She would know about these things, and in such detail, besides himself, the only possibility was Li Xian’er! Unless there truly existed a ‘miraculous person’ in this world who could comprehend a person’s past and future!

‘Li Xian’er?’ A faint question appeared in Hua Qimeng’s eyes, followed by a slight nod. ‘Is that the name of the person destined for you? A name that I can’t even know.’

Yeh Tianxie’s hands left Hua Qimeng’s shoulders, and there was a noticeable sense of melancholy in his expression. It was a deep sense of disappointment that came from suddenly seeing hope but ultimately getting despair. Because her eyes were so pure and profound, such eyes would not hide falsehood. She really didn’t know Li Xian’er.

‘Are these really not told to you by someone else?’ Yeh Tianxie asked.

‘I’ve said it before, just like you, I am also a person from another world, not belonging to this world,’ Hua Qimeng replied.

‘A person from another world?’ Yeh Tianxie frowned; he couldn’t understand this sentence.”

“I know you don’t understand; I didn’t understand either until I met you. It was only then that I understood and believed…” Hua Qimeng also stared directly at him, uttering words that Ye Tianxie found increasingly difficult to comprehend. She paused, lifted her eyes, and looked elsewhere, calmly narrating, “From a very young age, I was different from other children… When I was born, I didn’t cry. I used a pair of very calm eyes to try to see the first group of people who came to this world after me. However, no matter how hard I tried, all I could see was a pitch-black darkness.”

Yeh Tianxie: “…”

Looking at her beautiful, crystalline, deep and boundless eyes, like a vast starry sky, he found it hard to believe everything he was hearing.

“Ordinary infants only have instinctive reflex consciousness when they make sounds for the first time. When I was born, I had independent and clear self-awareness, with intelligence not inferior to that of an adult… However, I was destined not to be able to see this world with my eyes. Perhaps heaven gave me special abilities but took away what should have belonged to me… At three months old, I learned the language of Huaxia, but my forbidden wisdom kept me silent, trying as much as possible not to show aspects that deviated from the norm.”

“The Yun family is far from the glamorous calmness it appears to have on the surface; the internal conflicts are as fierce as the struggles in ancient imperial courts. Although I can only use my ears to hear the sounds of this world and my heart to see this world, I can’t help but feel that their struggles are so childish and ridiculous… Yes, at that time, at only a few years old, I coldly watched their childishness. Even though I didn’t have eyes, I could easily guess what was in their hearts, easily see through their so-called conspiracies. Meanwhile, an ability not accepted by this world gradually matured in me, and the effect of this ability made me increasingly feel fear. Everything I possessed seemed so repulsive and incompatible with this world called Earth. From a very young age, I felt that I and they were not on the same level, not people of the same world. I was like an observer who didn’t belong to this world, silently perceiving everything that belonged to this world.”

“Ye Tianxie: ‘…’

‘In the struggles of the Yun family, I have always been a spectator, never involved. I was born blind, and even more terrifying things happened to me. As that unwanted power matured, like a divine punishment, I lost my other ability… Starting at the age of six, I lost the ability to walk. Since then, I have never stood up again.’

Hua Qimeng’s voice was so calm, devoid of emotion, without sorrow, regret, or self-pity. It was as calm as narrating someone else’s story.

Yeh Tianxie listened quietly, and this kind of attentive listening silently brought them closer in an atmosphere neither of them had noticed. Because, from their childhood to adulthood, their experiences had surprisingly many similarities. Many of the things they encountered were so incompatible with the truths of the world they lived in. When she mentioned her family, she referred to it as the ‘Yun family’ and not ‘my family.’ She also directly called the people from the Yun family ‘they,’ as if she had never considered herself part of the Yun family or part of this world.

So, was her surname something she gave herself?

In reality, she couldn’t see things, and she couldn’t even stand… Her tragic fate was like the times he had hovered on the brink of death repeatedly. ‘Originally born blind, cold and silent, I was not liked by the people there. After losing the ability to walk, I was even more ignored and overlooked by them, and that’s exactly what I wanted. I didn’t want to talk to them; I would rather communicate with flowers and plants with my heart. Over time, the people there had even forgotten about my existence… Until one day, when the internal strife of the Yun family put my biological parents in great danger, I had to intervene and resolve the crisis. After that, I could never have the previous calmness. Since then, I helped them clean up the mess and revive the Yun family. After all, they are my biological parents and my biological brother.’

She quietly described her affairs with simple language until she finished, showing no joy or sorrow on her face. ‘There’s another thing I may need to tell you… because I don’t want you to see me as someone ruthless who uses any means for personal gain.’

Yeh Tianxie was initially stunned, then he reacted: ‘Zhao Tianhua’s matter?'”

“Yes,” Hua Qimeng nodded, speaking slowly, “With Liu Qiyue’s abilities, coupled with my deliberate guidance, she could easily find my existence and inform you of everything. Taking advantage of Zhao Tianhua’s obvious weaknesses, from when I started targeting him to bringing his entire Tianhua Group under my control, everything went smoothly as expected.”

“Are you trying to tell me that manipulating Zhao Tianhua was not your intention?” Yeh Tianxie asked. Zhao Tianhua was widely recognized as a genius, making his mark in the business world solely based on his abilities, without resorting to the shortcuts he disdained. He wouldn’t touch the underground channels, nor stoop to unethical methods like Su Luo… He was a man who could be the goal and role model for all businessmen.

At the same time, he was loyal and devoted, not becoming promiscuous despite his great success in business. He remained faithful to the one woman he loved… Yet, in the end, it was all part of a long-planned manipulation. The magnitude of the impact it had on him could be imagined. It was despicable and hateful to destroy everything about a person through such vile means, almost destroying the person himself… It was utterly shameful.

Hua Qimeng shook her head, saying, “It’s not that it wasn’t my intention, but because of… you.”

“Me?” Yeh Tianxie was momentarily stunned, shaking his head. “When your Yun family arranged people around Zhao Tianhua, we seemed to have no acquaintance at all, right?”

“Believe it or not, the reason for leaving Zhao Tianhua with nothing was not my original intention. What I wanted to do was simply guide him to your side and confirm the vague image in my mind… The fact is, everything turned out to be so fitting. You appeared, and indirectly, he came to your side. In the future, he will spare no effort in developing the Seven Moons Chamber of Commerce to a scale sufficient to cover the world. He was supposed to be another important figure in your destiny. I just tried to guide him to your side based on the vague image. When I knew that Zhao Tianhua was indeed recruited into the Seven Moons Chamber of Commerce by Liu Qiyue, I knew it was time for us to meet.”

Yeh Tianxie: “…”

Her words were slow and concise, but he couldn’t understand… No matter how hard he tried to comprehend, he couldn’t truly understand what she was expressing. It was a language he was familiar with, yet it felt like he was talking to someone in a different space, a person with no common cognition or experience, making it impossible for him to truly grasp the world she was conveying.

“You don’t understand, do you?” Hua Qimeng said.

Yeh Tianxie did not respond; his expression of confusion and bewilderment had already become an acknowledgment.

“That is an ability not belonging to this world. With the cognition obtained through this ability, you, who are accustomed to the understanding of this world, cannot comprehend it. At least not now. I also have many things that I don’t understand, which is why I came to find you.”

“Find me? Is that the reason you want to join the Soul Mercenary Corps?” Yeh Tianxie furrowed his brows.

Hua Qimeng nodded, “Yes… because only by staying by your side can I obtain answers. This is my ability that shouldn’t belong to this world, providing me with answers.”

“What is this ability of yours that doesn’t belong to this world?”

“I can see into a person’s thoughts, understand their fundamental nature, and sometimes even comprehend a person’s past lives and present life…”

Hua Qimeng gave Yeh Tianxie an answer bordering on mythology.

Yeh Tianxie: “…”

Besides shock, all he felt was shock. Her answer was as mythical as a legend.

Seeing into a person’s thoughts… What a terrifying ability! If this ability were real, then anything one thinks or plans in their mind would be completely known to her just by standing in front of her. This level of ability was truly astonishing!

Understanding a person’s fundamental nature… What does that mean? Does it refer to a person’s unique attributes?

Comprehending a person’s past lives and present life… Did she use this ability to know about her own experiences from childhood to now? Past lives? What is a past life? Could there really be a “past life” in the mysterious realms of human imagination, existing only in fantasies?
