Next day under the mesmerising sunlight illuminating the surrounding. The young man woke up and while washing his face he hears a sweet tweeting sound.
"Xiao Li good morning. I have to go to complete the task master gave me. Aaaah...it's so difficult I have to memorize so much. But let's go to master first" commented the boy
The young boy started happily trotting towards the shack. "Master I am back are you awake?Master." shouted the boy.
'Hmm....this has never happened master didn't say anything about closed door cultivation. Maybe still sleeping it's better for me to wake up the master...hehe' thinking excitedly the boy started opening the door.
As if to drown the happiness of the boy, the room was empty. 'Did master go somewhere hmm...maybe. When master returns I will ask for some sweet candy...sluuurp' thinking the boy while salivating started to go towards his room.
In the room, while reading the book [Compendium of Ten Thousand Spirit Plants] . "It's already evening, master didn't return maybe there is too much work to do. I will wait..." while thinking deeply commented the boy while lighting up the candle.
Few Days later...
"Xiao Li do you think master is still busy. When master comes I will nag him for leaving me behind" sadly commented the boy.

Just as flowing wind which never seizes on anyone's command, times flows irrelevant of anyone's thoughts whether they want to slow, stop or want the moment of time to pass quickly.
Even a droplet of water can still make thousands of ripples on a calm lake disturbing his rest. Human emotions are even more fragile not to comment if it belongs to a young child.
Few Months Later...
"Xiao Li when will master come. Sniff...waaahh....master I promise to complete all task which you will give me before playing and I promise to study hard and work hard in cultivation and...sniff...I won't make trouble please come back master don't leave me alone...waah" crying heartily said the young boy.
The tears of longings of the loved ones are hardest to bear in heart not to mention if the one's missing is the only one in your world and your life revolves around him.
