Chapter 1067: Chapter 1063: An Important Coincidence

"Even if the wind is cold, it will make her feel warm!"

At this point, Ozawa Miwa paused and turned to ask, "Xiao Tian, do you think Mom will see it?"

Xiao Tian snapped back to reality, surprisingly discovering that he had followed Ozawa Miwa to the outside of a building that resembled a castle.

Facing Ozawa Miwa’s questioning look, Xiao Tian adjusted his expression and responded seriously, "She definitely will!"

Seeing Xiao Tian’s response, Ozawa Miwa turned around and walked towards the castle, speaking as she walked, "Later, I moved here and met Grandma Mei Huizi."

Xiao Tian furrowed his brow and then thought of the woman who had been by her side earlier, with a kind and gentle smile, but she gave off an impression that she was not to be underestimated!

"From that time on, Grandma Mei Huizi took care of my daily life. Every time I faced difficulties, she was always there to encourage and comfort me. Although sometimes she would sternly teach me lessons, I understood and could see that she was doing it intentionally."

"Grandma Mei Huizi is good in all aspects, but when she tells lies, she becomes guilty first, so every time I act afraid, it’s actually intentional too."

As Ozawa Miwa recounted, the two had already reached the second floor, Xiao Tian’s feet on the heavy carpet, yet he had a faint foreboding in his heart.

According to logic, Grandma Mei Huizi, knowing Ozawa Miwa was deeply in crisis, couldn’t possibly not have appeared by now. This abnormal phenomenon could only mean one thing... she must have met with misfortune!

As expected, Ozawa Miwa sighed and said in an extremely sorrowful tone, "But now... Grandma Mei Huizi has also left me, just like Mom did."

Xiao Tian opened his mouth, wanting to comfort her a few words, but suddenly didn’t know how to start, inwardly sighing, "This mouth is certainly invincible in arguments, but when it comes to comforting people, it is a hundred thousand miles off!"

This is inseparable from his growth environment and experiences. Xiao Tian was born into a military family, and his mother Xiao Nianqing was not an ordinary woman.

In the values instilled in him since childhood, there never seemed to be the word ’comfort’. When knocked down, you think of ways to fight back, and if surpassed, you think of ways to surpass back. If you can’t do it, it only means your ability is lacking, what place is there for any comfort!

Later, during repeated forays into showers of bullets, life and death were decided in a moment. One moment, teammates were laughing with him, the next, they were warm corpses, which made talk of comfort utterly irrelevant.

Xiao Tian couldn’t even recall the last time he cried... Was it that time in the bar when he saw Lin Bingxuan?

Wait!

In the bar... saw Lin Bingxuan... cry?

Suddenly, Xiao Tian felt a sharp pain in his brain, a strong anguish that made his vision go black, nearly causing him to fall to the ground.

Almost without waiting for him to react, his brain was as if opened by a floodgate, and those sealed memories rushed into his mind like a flood, forcibly arranging themselves in chronological order.

Once they were arranged, the pain dissipated...

Xiao Tian murmured quietly, "So my encounter with Lin Bingxuan was actually because of... Liu Hanyan?"

Indeed!

If it weren’t for Liu Hanyan, he wouldn’t have gone to the bar to drink, and naturally, subsequent events wouldn’t have occurred.

At the same time, Xiao Tian also understood Ozawa Miwa’s hostility towards him, only due to genetic breakdown at the time, which caused him to forget everything about Liu Hanyan!

"Han Yan... Han Yan!" Xiao Tian whispered gently, this name that represented his obsession, his gaze gradually becoming distant, as if it traversed through time and space, returning to the smoky battlefield...

...

"Xiao Tian, why are you crying?" Ozawa Miwa stared at Xiao Tian, somewhat panicked and asked.

Her pretty face vaguely showed some guilt, apparently mistakenly thinking that Xiao Tian’s tears were influenced by her.

Yet after her question, Xiao Tian still didn’t respond, seeming still immersed in sorrow, unable to extricate himself.

The little princess was both surprised and scared, cautiously stepped forward to grasp Xiao Tian’s sleeve, shaking it slightly, which prompted him to react.

"What’s wrong?" Seeing Ozawa Miwa’s guilty expression, looking as if she had made a mistake, Xiao Tian instinctively asked.

"I’m sorry, Xiao Tian, for making you sad for me!" Saying this, she deeply bowed her small head, seemingly genuinely feeling sorry.

Xiao Tian couldn’t help feeling puzzled, but before he could voice his confusion, he felt the liquid flow on his cheeks, wiped it with his hand and looked at it, and immediately understood what had happened...

One has to admit, this coincidence came fortuitously and was very significant, too.

To Xiao Tian, except for the pain in his heart from Liu Hanyan, there really wasn’t anything worthy of sorrow.

At this moment, driven by Ozawa Miwa, he inadvertently broke the seal of those memories, which undoubtedly was a good thing!

Because Xiao Tian clearly remembered Kojima Minako had once implicitly said that Liu Hanyan hadn’t actually died, but was alive and well, how could he not be extremely happy?!

But besides the joy, Xiao Tian also forced himself to calm down. Given the current situation, pursuing Liu Hanyan now was really not a wise decision.

Firstly, Ghost Face’s life or death was unknown, and he hadn’t escaped crisis; and he needed to quickly find the materials needed for crafting the Reshaping Pill for Kojima Minako.

The most important point was, he was now like a torch in the dark, attracting many others, none with good intentions, all with extraordinary skills, eager to put him to death!

In this case, bringing Liu Hanyan alongside him would be equivalent to dragging her into danger.

Although Xiao Tian was exceedingly confident, his Han Yan would absolutely not care about these... yet he couldn’t ignore them!

In a situation where he can’t even protect himself, Xiao Tian resolved to cut off that thought before it grew uncontrollably until after overcoming this present difficulty, he would plan anew!

However, what surprised Xiao Tian was that since he remembered the memories about Liu Hanyan and confirmed she was still alive, the shadow that constantly entwined in his heart vanished without a trace, as if it had never appeared!

And the benefits brought about by this were astonishing, the obstacle he should have broken through after the second stage of the Five Elements Crystal suddenly began to loosen without hindrance, then collapsed like a tofu-made wall, clearing the path ahead!

Xiao Tian wasn’t certain if he could regain his peak in one go, but he was sure the breakthrough of this obstacle brought him extremely close to his peak strength!

Even if there remains a gap, it surely won’t be too large!
