"How did you acquire it?" Chu Liuxiang asked out of curiosity.
"Well, it started when we met this man in front of a cave…" Yuan proceeded to recall his experience with the Demonic Spider.
"That's… very tragic…" Chu Liuxiang sighed in a dispirited voice after hearing the story.
"Hearing your story makes me wonder… Does it hurt more for the parents to lose their children, or does it hurt more for the children when they lose their parents?"
"I don't think we can gauge pain…" Yuan shook his head.
"Yuan, have you ever thought about meeting your parents? Your biological parents, I mean."
"Not really. I never had the time to worry about such things, either. They abandoned me for a reason, and there's no point thinking about it since it's already happened."
