Chapter 1352: The Meaning of Existence

"But what is my meaning? Is the meaning of my existence just to act as a stepping stone for others?" Liu Ruxi cried out: "Chen Yu, you don't know, I feel so terrible, I really feel so terrible inside."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here," Chen Yu comforted her: "Some things cannot be changed by anyone, and everyone has their own destiny. Whether it is Liu Lianxin or you, it is all the same."

"I've discovered now how good my life used to be," she sighed slightly and said: "I could ignore all those messy things."

"I could throw tantrums, I could be willful; as long as my aunt was by my side, I felt very happy. But now it has changed, everything has changed."

"I am no longer that girl who could act spoiled and willful. Now I feel as if several Mountains are pressing down on me, and I simply cannot catch my breath."

"Everyone has their own pressures, it's all the same. And for you, these things might not necessarily be bad, because they can allow you to grow quickly," Chen Yu said.

"I would rather not grow, really," Liu Ruxi sighed slightly, and she wiped away a tear.

"Not crying anymore?" Chen Yu asked.

"Not crying anymore. It doesn't look good when I cry, and I never used to cry in front of a man before, but since I met you, I seem to cry often," Liu Ruxi shook her head and said.

"That's right. Life is just like this: you are born, you live on. There is no obstacle in life that cannot be overcome; you just have to be able to let things go yourself."

"Thank you, for still being able to comfort me now," Liu Ruxi nodded slightly.

"Alright, calm down, let's go back. In the eyes of others, you are a big CEO, how can you cry at the drop of a hat?" Chen Yu laughed.

Liu Ruxi nodded. She raised her head to look at Chen Yu and said: "Can I borrow your shoulder for a moment now?"

"Didn't you say you didn't want to just now?" Chen Yu said, feeling somewhat between laughter and tears.

"I didn't want to just now, but now I want to find someone to lean on," Liu Ruxi said, slowly leaning onto Chen Yu's shoulder.

A faint fragrance drifted to his nose, and Chen Yu's heart stirred slightly, inexplicably becoming restless.

But he gave a bitter smile and could only endure it, letting her lean against his body.

Just at this moment, a cold, demonic wind suddenly struck from the side. This demonic wind was incomparably cold, making one shiver involuntarily.

Chen Yu was startled. He suddenly snapped to attention and looked to the side.

He saw a mass of black Qi flash past his eyes; within this mass of black Qi, there was endless demonic aura.

"What's wrong?" Feeling Chen Yu's body tremble slightly, Liu Ruxi suddenly raised her head, looking at Chen Yu in surprise.

"There is demonic aura..." Chen Yu stared fixedly at the place where the demonic wind had blown, and he muttered: "This demonic aura is very strong, and it seems to have come from your villa."

"It wouldn't have anything to do with me, would it?" Liu Ruxi was startled.

"Nine times out of ten, it has to do with you," Chen Yu said solemnly: "Because ordinary people might not encounter these things in their entire lives, but you are different."

"You have opened your Heavenly Eye, and you yourself are one of the Lotus Bodies of the One Qi Transforms into Three Lotuses. Sometimes, once a gap is opened, you will encounter more of these things in the future."

"Ah... then, what should we do?" Liu Ruxi suddenly became uneasy, and she said with a complex expression: "Why am I so unlucky?"

"Let's go back and take a look first," Chen Yu's brows furrowed.

"Okay, He Yi is at home, and my aunt is also at home at this hour. She... they haven't run into any trouble, have they?" Liu Ruxi muttered.

"We'll know once we go home and see," Chen Yu pondered slightly, then he stood up, opened the car door, and walked back with Liu Ruxi.

Before they reached home, from a distance, Chen Yu could already feel a demonic aura emanating from the villa, and his brows furrowed even more tightly.

"Is it really coming from the direction of my house?" Liu Ruxi was startled.

Although some of her consciousness is not yet awakened, she could also sense the demonic aura.

Because a cold aura was coming from the direction of her house, making her feel very unnatural.

"Nine times out of ten, it is," Chen Yu nodded slightly and said: "But it doesn't matter, I can handle it."

Liu Ruxi nodded slightly. She followed Chen Yu closely; now she could only pin all her hopes on Chen Yu.

Sometimes she really hated herself—why hadn't she awakened yet? If she had truly awakened, she could have solved some things herself and wouldn't have to be rushing about like this.

She followed Chen Yu closely, arriving with him at the place where she lived.

Outside, it still looked calm and peaceful, but the moment the door was opened, a mass of black Qi suddenly attacked the two of them.

Liu Ruxi was so scared her face turned pale, and she hurriedly ducked to avoid the mass of black Qi.

"Don't be afraid... it's just Resentment," Chen Yu looked up and saw countless masses of black Qi swirling continuously in the air above.

These things were transformed from Yin Souls; every mass of black Qi was a person. After these people were harmed, their resentment did not dissipate, and over time it condensed into Resentment, which is how it became what it is now.

"But why did so many Resentments come to our house?" Liu Ruxi looked at the resentful spirits above with trepidation, her expression complex for a moment.

"The demonic creature that just ran out must have harmed many people before," Chen Yu said: "So these Resentments did not dissipate over time and became this mass of black Qi."

"What exactly is that thing?" Liu Ruxi was puzzled.

"Let's go in and see," Chen Yu said: "The other party has already left, there won't be any danger for the time being."

"Okay," Liu Ruxi nodded and followed Chen Yu into the hall.

Pushing open the door, the situation inside the room startled her.

The interior now appeared very messy; the expensive sofa was overturned to one side, and the red wine she had collected was spilled all over the floor.

Moreover, there were several massive claw marks on the ground, and the claw marks were stained with blood.

Chen Yu bent down and used his hand to measure the ground; those claw marks were many times larger than a human hand.

"What is this thing?" Liu Ruxi looked at it, feeling somewhat terrified.

"So it wasn't a demon," Chen Yu's brows were tightly locked: "This is a Dark Creature."

"What is a Dark Creature?" Liu Ruxi looked at Chen Yu, puzzled.

"A type of thing from the Dark World, with various forms; the specific situation depends on its level," Chen Yu said: "Judging from the situation before us, these Dark Creatures are not simple."

"What about He Yi? Could she have been harmed?" Liu Ruxi's face turned pale, and she looked toward the entrance, seeing a pair of women's shoes at the door.
