Chapter 138 – Failure is Success, its Mother
by Jessie@AFNCCUnlike the previous two simulations.
As soon as the Xu system broke out of the customs, his sister and the magical girl greeted him.
Everyone had their own things that needed to be done during this martial arts simulation, during Xu System’s seclusion, Wu Ying Xue was sitting in on the army for him, and Ah Niu and the other Tiny Misters were also doing their jobs.
Quiet on the retreat.
It was equally quiet on the way out.
The only thing that greeted the Xu system was the light warm sunlight, and the rustling of the leaves rubbed by the light wind.
That’s enough.
“I really hope that this quietness, can be maintained forever”, Xu System walked out of the official residence, the sunlight was divided and tilted by the eaves, leaving only a throw of golden splendor, falling on Xu System’s shoulders.
The sun is so warm.
It was as if even the cold stone bricks, the silent tiles, were irradiated with life.
Gleaming in the dusty light.
Day two.
The Xu system remained in Pingshui County, ready to wait for the end of the fall harvest, while the young girls who had received the news of his departure hurriedly came from other counties.
“Sir, you’ve gotten stronger again?!”
Contrary to the flat tone of the witch.
Wu Ying Xue’s tone was very excited, full of blessings and joy, making one instantly hear the feelings of joy contained in that voice.
“Well, small breakthrough.”
Flatwater County, fields at the border.
The Xu system rejoined the young girl.
The two stood side by side, looking out over the sprawling golden rice paddies, watching the ears of rice sway in the breeze, like undulating waves, sometimes high, sometimes low, sometimes concave, sometimes convex.
In that pure gold color, the red and white robe on the young girl stood out.
A long pale green dress for New Year’s Eve.
Not what the young Sheriff had in mind after all.
After the make-up, she returns to her old image as “Mr. Wu”, who is known to all as the one who kills demons.
“Are you strong now, sir?”
“Slightly stronger, but it’s still hard to win against the Third Realm of the Innate, and the more subsequent Human Immortal martial artists.”
“Well, much better than me anyway.”
“Yingxue, there weren’t any problems in the other counties while I was gone, were there?”
“Hey, sir, no need to worry, everything is in order with me!”
“That’s good.”
The winding ridge of the field.
Department Xu stood and listened to Wu Ying Xue’s smug report, and when she finished, Xu handed out a spike of grass.
“Want to try it, Yingxue?”
“This is ……”
“The children of Green Cow Town, specifically gave me [candy].”
The Xu system handed one to the young girl.
For himself, he took the rest and picked a new one out of it, taking it into his mouth and chewing it gently.
“This ……”
The young girl froze.
Then imitating the gesture of the Xu system, he similarly took the spike of grass into his mouth.
There was a wind that blew and shook the roots of the grass spike, but the part that was taken into the mouth burst with a light sweet flavor as it was chewed.
So amazing.
Wu Ying Xue’s eyes slowly widened.
Sweetness can make people happy, even a chivalrous woman with a bold character can fall so deeply into this short-lived sweetness that she can’t get out of it.
“Sir, this is delicious!”
The girl finally understood why she called the grass spikes candy.
She relishes it.
Constantly chewing on new spikes of grass.
Until the spike of grass in Xu System’s hand was chewed by the girl.
“Although it’s delicious, you shouldn’t crave for too much”, the Xu system patiently admonished, and the girl obediently answered in the affirmative.
For the rest of the day, the two men watched the ebb and flow of the rice paddies while talking about the development of the survivalist army and the more distant future.
There are prayers about good.
There are also nightmares about failure.
People struggling hard, bloodthirsty and brutal demons, mindless and witless devils, and martial arts that break everything.
The two chatted a lot over the hissing sound of flora rubbing together.
Gradual.
Wu Ying Xue’s mood was a bit low.
“Sir, can we, everyone in the Seeking Life Army …… really make it to the end?”
The voice is confused, the emotions are perplexed.
The young Sheriff had also been a member of the Great Qian powerhouse.
She knew better than anyone.
The Da Qian that seems to be leaking all over the place, how terrifying its true depth is is far beyond what the current Seeking Life Army can compare to.
It didn’t even need a Human Immortal powerhouse to make a move to destroy all of the Seeking Life Army’s bases.
The young girl hoped that she could get encouragement from Department Xu.
But that was not the case with the words uttered by the Hsu system.
“Ying Xue, do you think that complete failure, as well as complete success, exists in this world?” , Xu Xian asked rhetorically as he met Wu Ying Xue’s eyes.
“I don’t think …… has it.”
The girl shook her head hesitantly.
“Yes, there is never anything that can remain exactly the same.”
The Xu system affirmed the girl’s answer.
There was a pause.
He continued, “Da Qian is not necessarily the winner, and we are not necessarily the losers.”
“The current situation is indeed unfavorable to us, even just one of the thirteen state capitals may cause us to lose our efforts.”
“But–“
“Ying Xue, there are many things in this world that have nothing to do with winning or losing.”
“There are some things that you have to try to move forward even when you know you will fail.”
“The only way to see the dawn.”
Xu System’s voice, as always, was gentle.
He didn’t promise the beauty of victory.
Nor did it promise a bright future.
But in those plain words, Wu Ying Xue heard a certain power, and she suddenly smiled, recalling a phrase Xu Department had taught her.
“Sir is right.”
“After all, failure is success its old mother!”
“Even if we fail in the end, there’s nothing to be sorry about, the big deal is to start all over again!”
The young girl raised her fists in the air, fighting spirit.
Only the Xu system fell into silence.
Is it possible to correct this sentence?
“Sir, I’m not afraid of anything anymore! Even if I die tomorrow, I won’t frown a bit!”
“Yingxue, turn your head around.”
“Uh-oh.”
The Hsu system flexed its middle finger.
Flicked the young girl’s smooth forehead.
“Ouch!” , Wu Ying Xue covered her forehead in pain and kept rubbing it with her palm.
“Don’t say such unlucky words in the future, got it?” , the Xu system spoke.
“I know ……”
The young girl dared not retort.
It’s just based on knowledge of teenage girls.
The Xu system felt that in all likelihood, she would do it again in the future.
That fiery character is both a cynical fury and a reckless, unthinking impulse, with little regard for what’s going on.
“Ying Xue, I remember that you have a crippled technique, right?”
“Well, what is it, sir.”
“You’ve come at the right time this time, I want to help you deduce a new technique to replace the original crippled imperial technique.”
“Can it really, really be done, sir!”
“It was just an attempt, and besides, I had some questions about the royal family that I wanted to check with you.”
……
[Wu Ying Xue’s gongfu is crippled and limited by the loss of her county princess status, she can no longer obtain the imperial gongfu further back]
[This handicap deeply affects her advancement in strength]
[You have decided to utilize the characteristics of your own qi and blood heaven and earth to evolve a new gong method for young girls]
[This is a bold initiative]
[You’re so proud of your martial arts skills that you think you might give it a try.]
[You decide to start with the girl’s original Green Dragon Deity and improve or take off a new technique. The girl follows your instructions and releases the Green Dragon Deity at close range]
[You look at the lifelike Green Dragon Deity and fall into deep thought]
