Chapter 1068 - 1064: Emergency Stop

Chapter 1068: Chapter 1064: Emergency Stop

This is just the visible benefit.

Besides, the potential benefits are also significant. With the recovery of memories this time, Xiao Tian undoubtedly becomes more eager for power. In the past, pressure was the driving force, but now there’s no need for great pressure. The motivation alone is enough to support the path to the peak!

It seems there is no difference, but only those who truly understand the trade will know that such efficiency is far superior to being under strong pressure!

The reason is simple. "No pressure, no motivation," this phrase is known even to children, but only those who have truly experienced high pressure will understand that the motivation driven by pressure only works temporarily. If high-intensity pressure is maintained continuously, it is feared that it won’t lead to a mental collapse but a state of fatigue will appear.

This is definitely not a good thing for any master.

In fact, many current mid-level masters do have the possibility to advance further but lack the necessary subjective motivation.

Apart from those who pursue wealth initially, the rest get lost along the path to becoming stronger, intercepted by the temptations on the road, blocking their way to the future.

Eventually, when the day of regret comes, they find it’s already too late...

But Xiao Tian is different. From the beginning, his goals were set very far ahead, which was to firmly grasp everything he wanted and needed with his own ability!

The fundamental purpose still comes down to two words—become strong!

Because the things you need, others may also need, and the things you want, others may also covet. What do you do if you don’t want to give in?

Of course, you fight, you scramble, and you step on your opponents one by one!

Only by becoming stronger yourself can you grasp what you want and need.

And even if you have it in hand, you need corresponding strength to protect it, or else it will end up being fruitless.

At this moment, the determination in Xiao Tian’s heart is like a sharp blade, cutting down the lingering shadows in his mind one by one, revealing a path that, though long, is extraordinarily broad and bright!

...

"Thank you!" Xiao Tian pulled Ozawa Miwa into his arms, unable to suppress his excitement for a long time. If it weren’t for the little princess in front of him, who knows when he would have recalled those sealed memories?

Now looking back, it’s undoubtedly not too late... If there’s a day when he meets Han Yan again and treats her as a stranger, what would the consequences be?

This is a question Xiao Tian does not want to think about, nor dare to think about...

Fortunately, everything is still in time now!

In all this, Ozawa Miwa is clearly an indispensable figure. Without her words that brought him into sadness, there wouldn’t be this moment of enlightenment!

Xiao Tian’s abrupt action startled the little princess, her face flushing red like a ripe apple, her heart racing, breath turning heavy, instinctively wanting to step back.

However, just as she was about to step back, the little princess suddenly thought: "This seems to be the first time that Brother Xiao Tian has hugged me voluntarily. What if I step back now and he mistakenly thinks I don’t want to be so close to him?"

"Would he deliberately keep his distance from me because of this?"

Thinking of this, Ozawa Miwa closed her eyes, disregarding whether she was shy or not, opened her arms and hugged Xiao Tian back, pressing her head tightly against his chest, a smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.

"If only time could stop at this moment forever... how wonderful that would be!" Ozawa Miwa thought secretly.

——

On the gray-bricked open area, a stone tablet about one meter high stood quietly. At the top of the stone tablet, a woman showed a kind and gentle smile, seemingly able to forgive all the wrongs of the world!

In front of the stone tablet, Ozawa Miwa, dressed in a snow-white coat, stood gracefully, holding a bouquet of equally snow-white flowers, her expression seeming calm, but the sense of sorrow on her body affected every person present.

After standing for a long time, Ozawa Miwa looked at the stone tablet in front of her and said softly, "Mei Huizi Granny, please rest in peace, no need to worry about me anymore!"

Then, she stepped forward and placed the flowers in front of the stone tablet, kneeling halfway on the ground, saying: "I remember you once said that if a person can strive for the future they want, even if they cry, those tears are happy ones. I am very happy!"

"Have a good sleep, I will come back to visit you!"

After saying this, Ozawa Miwa slowly stood up, made three deep bows toward the stone tablet, then took out two equally sized walnuts from her pocket, placing them gently in front of the stone tablet. If you look closely, you can find the patterns on the two walnuts are almost indistinguishable...

...

After walking a distance away, Xiao Tian couldn’t help but look back, only to see the woman’s smile on the stone tablet remained, as if watching Ozawa Miwa leaving, and perhaps also watching him.

"Rest assured, I will take good care of her!" Xiao Tian silently said in his heart. After speaking, he turned his head, seeing Ozawa Miwa pursing her lips, tears falling on her face, wiped away before reaching the ground.

It’s evident, she wants to look back one more time, but she tightly bites her lip, not letting herself cry out loud, never turning back.

Xiao Tian sighed in his heart, vaguely able to guess what Ozawa Miwa thought.

She probably doesn’t want Grandma Mei Huizi to see her crying, doesn’t want her to still worry about her in another world...

With the strong assistance of the middle-aged man and the path opened earlier by the Zhong Family’s experts, the group returned to Huaxia in just three days.

Don’t think these three days sound a bit slow, but considering the need to cover their tracks, remain unnoticed, and not get detected, three days is a quick turnaround.

One must know that the perception ability of those experts is almost on par with many sophisticated detection instruments, and a few exceptional perception power individuals could be termed as walking human radars, sensing any living being within a kilometer radius.

Even if a master could reduce their presence to a certain degree, successfully avoiding others’ perception power, Ozawa Miwa and Adison Claire are ordinary people. No matter how skilled Xiao Tian is, he can’t hide them perfectly in a short time!

Seeing the shoreline coming closer and closer in their view, several experts from the Zhong Family let out a breath of relief: "This mission, finally completed successfully!"

However, just as this sigh of relief fell, the originally smooth-sailing ship suddenly braked sharply, causing the tourists on board to lose their balance, screams rising one after another.

Among those screaming are, of course, the two women Ozawa Miwa and Adison Claire.

Quick-witted Xiao Tian reached out quickly, grabbing both of them by the waist. Then he hooked his foot on the bench’s footrest, avoiding the embarrassing situation of his face hitting the seat in front of him.
