Wu Qi recalled and said, "I was orphaned years ago because of a demon calamity. I suffered terribly and wandered to Cheng'an Prefecture City. I've forgotten many of the hardships I suffered in my youth; it was too tough."
Xu Jingming listened. With the harsh environment of the Demon Vanquishing World, he could imagine what a child fleeing for refuge would encounter.
Wu Qi continued, "Back then, I had suffered an injury to my spine. It couldn't be treated during my seeking of refuge—that's how I became a hunchback. It was only when I gained basic mastery of martial arts and gave care to my injuries that my hunchback didn't get serious. You haven't seen how much worse my hunchback was when I was young."
"I remember it was snowing heavily that year. It was too cold, and I didn't have anything to eat," Uncle Qi said. "I nearly fainted from freezing on the streets."
