Chapter 513 Why Do You Reject My Existence?

"Yuan… Isn't that you?" Meixiu pointed at the television that was currently playing a recording from the surveillance camera at the Cultivators' Association, allowing everyone to witness the drama for themselves.

They could see two figures entering the building and walking straight towards the front.

A few moments later, the figure wearing a black mask suddenly smashed the metal table into pieces, shocking everyone there.

Then the guards surrounded the masked individuals, but they didn't dare advance any further for some reason, almost like there was an invisible force that kept them from approaching the masked figure.

A few minutes later, Chairman Zhao and the elders could be seen approaching the masked figure.

It was at this moment the masked figure walked in front of the Chairman before lifting him into the air by the neck.

A few more moments later, the masked figure tossed the Chairman like a child getting bored of their toy and walking away.

However, the masked figure was stopped by the elders, and after some conversation, the masked figure disappeared from the Cultivators' Association.

Of course, all of this was played without any sound. But even without any sound, the spectators could see how domineering that masked figure was, and they had no doubt that he had the capabilities to destroy the Cultivators' Association from his demeanor alone.

Seeing Player Yuan for the first time, many people were in awe of his display of dominance, and those that were already fans of Player Yuan became even more obsessed with him.

"How embarrassing…" Yuan said with a bashful smile on his face after seeing himself acting so out of character, almost like he was watching a play.

"If I didn't know you were going to do this beforehand, I would have never guessed that masked figure would be you…" Meixiu said in a dumbfounded voice.

"I was actually afraid that the Young Master might accidentally kill the Chairman when he grabbed the Chairman by his neck," Meifeng said.

"K-Kill? Why would I do something so extreme?" Yuan was surprised to hear this.

"People do extreme things when they're angry…" Meifeng said.

"Even if that's true, I wouldn't kill someone just because I am angry… At least I hope I won't…"

Suddenly, Meixiu's phone started ringing.

"It's Yu Rou," Meixiu said to them before answering the phone.

"Hello—"

"Meixiu?! Are you watching the news right now?! Did Yuan really visit the Cultivators' Association today?!" Yu Rou asked her in an excited voice.

"Yes… It's true…" Meixiu said.

"Unbelievable…" Yu Rou's dumbfounded voice resounded after a moment of silence.

To think her brother would be so daring to storm the Cultivators' Association shortly after his recovery. She can only imagine what he might do in the future.

"Is he okay?" Yu Rou then asked.

"Yes, everything is okay… for now."

"I think he should be fine as long as nobody knows his identity." Yu Rou said.

"And even if the Cultivators' Association learns of his identity, I don't think it should cause any worries since a lot of people admires Player Yuan. There will be plenty of people willing to help him if he gets into any trouble."

"Anyways, just stay put for the next few days and see what happens. Also, keep me updated!" Yu Rou said.

"Okay."

An hour later, Wang Xiuying also gave them a call to make sure they were okay.

After dinner, Meifeng said, "Young Master, I will have to go back to work tomorrow, so tonight is our last night together."

"I see… It was fun, Miss Meifeng. It reminds me of the day when you were still taking care of me." Yuan said to her.

"And I will continue to take care of you from the shadows— until I am no longer needed," Meifeng said with a smile on her face.

That night, Meifeng snuggled closer to Yuan than usual.

"Good night, Young Master."

"Good night."

Once he fell asleep, Yuan returned to the land of dreams.

"Looks like you had quite some fun today." The handsome man appeared before him, just like he'd expected.

"Remember, what you experienced today is what it feels like to be the strong. As long as you're powerful, nobody will dare to defy you— nobody will dare to hurt those close to you."

Yuan silently stared at the handsome man with a slight frown on his face.

"What is it?" The man asked him.

"The way I acted today… You're affecting me, aren't you?" Yuan said in a low voice.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." The handsome man shrugged.

"Don't lie to me! I nearly killed Chairman Zhao today! If I didn't snap out of my anger, I would've snapped his neck in half instead when I had it in my grasp! I had this nearly uncontrollable desire to do so!"

The handsome man chuckled and said, "So what? You're simply acting true to yourself. You're worried that if you didn't kill him, he would eventually return to bother you and your loved ones again, right? That's why you had an urge to kill that man."

"Don't blame me for your own desires. After all, I am you. If you blame me, you're simply blaming yourself."

"Why do you reject my existence? You know, the more you refuse to accept me, the more difficult it will be for you when you must accept me, and that time will eventually come."

"..."

Yuan remained silent.

"Whatever. You don't need to accept me now, but eventually…"

The handsome man turned around and began disappearing into the mist.

Once the man was gone, the scenery changed, and even more of the handsome man's past began revealing itself to Yuan.

Yuan wanted to close his eyes and ignore the dream, but alas, since he was in a dream, even if he closed his eyes, he would still be able to see the dream. Therefore, he was forced to watch everything until he woke up.

"Haaaa… Why is this happening to me?" Yuan mumbled in a low voice.
