Flashback Of A Villain

Chapter 06: Former Brother

Finally, Xiao Yanran learned to call him brother and ever since, this was the only word he spoke the most.

“Sister.. sister... hungry, hungry.”.

“Kakak, sleep ... sleep.”

“Silver, eat.”

…

Sometimes, Xiao Yanran had nightmares and inevitably called her brother in the middle of the night. Lin Yan was about to wake up, and sit down beside Xiao Yanran, patting her gently and humming the children's song he heard out of nowhere.

Such a night was experienced several times, but each time, Lin Yan patiently woke up in the middle of the cold and dark night, humming a song and patting Xiao Yanran to sleep.

Of course, this made him too tired. 

Day by day, Lin Yan's body started to look increasingly thin, his spirit had also become extremely bad.

…

Outside the Linglong Treasure Mirror.

Xiao Yanran's face finally started to change.

Since her previous memory was when she was a baby, she did not remember much at all.

But, watching the video in the Linglong Treasure Mirror, the memories buried deep in his heart gushed out like a flood.

At that moment, even though he was not cultivating, it was the warmest days he had ever lived.

Whether it was day or night, as long as she opened her eyes, her brother would appear before her.

“But why did you become like that? Does the highest bone make your heart change so much?” Muttering these words to himself, suddenly Xiao Yanran's heart ached like it was pierced by a few needles. 

…

Soon, several years passed quickly.

Lin Yan raised Xiao Yanran with great difficulty, but as Xiao Yanran grew a little, their days were clearly much easier and they no longer struggled with life and death every day like before.

But even so, they often eat last without eating the next.

Whenever there was not enough food, Lin Yan would let his sister Xiao Yanran eat first. 

Only when Xiao Yanran had eaten enough would he eat. However, after Xiao Yanran finished eating, there was nothing left to eat. So, the young Lin Yan would drink cold water to fill his empty stomach.

This happened a few times.

And because of the long-term nutritional deficiency, Lin Yan's body was extremely thin.

In the past, her height was slightly higher than her peers, fat, and looking extremely cute, but due to spending all her energy on feeding Xiao Yanran, she was fat, he became thin while his comrades were at least half a head taller.

Even Xiao Yanran, gradually exceeded his height.

“At that time, he was very good to big brother Yanran.” Outside of the Linglong Treasure Mirror, even Xiao Mei, who hated the Celestial Emperor to the bone, could not help but sigh at this moment.

But that's all.

Although he saw that the Heavenly Emperor was so warm to Xiao Yanran, the hatred in his heart did not diminish in the slightest.

…

In the past, Lin Yan had refused to take Xiao Yanran to the mountains because he was afraid that Xiao Yanran would be injured.

But today, Xiao Yanran was crying and insisting on leaving together, having no other choice, Lin Yan should bring his sister.

Well, picking herbs was one of his abilities that Lin Yan had only learned in the past two years.

He picked herbs from the mountains and sold them to the store for money. This is more profitable than hunting. 

Although Lin Yan's body was thin, it was extremely flexible.

In the past, he had somehow found this part of the mountain that had some herbs.

In just half a day, Lin Yan had already collected the herbs inside the large backet.

Although he knew the places where the more precious herbs were there, he had to go deeper into the forest to get them, but Lin Yan was afraid that Xiao Yanran would come with him.

Carrying a large basket, Lin Yan, along with Xiao Yanran was on his way home.

From start to finish, Lin Yan was extremely tired and sweaty, but Xiao Yanran was happily playing by the side and bothered him.

However, Lin Yan was not annoyed, but whenever he saw his sister playing by the side, the corner of his mouth would show a smile.

This was also the only time he would smile.

…

“Heavenly Emperor really treated Sister Yan Ran very well.” A few people outside the Linglong Mirror Treasure thought silently in their hearts.

At the same time, they could not help but secretly look at Xiao Yanran.

But at this moment, Xiao Yanran's face turned pale, as if he was recalling something frightening, and even lost his voice: “That's when it happened ..”

Inside the Linglong Treasure Mirror.

After he finished picking the herbs, they had already started walking on the way home.

On the way, Xiao Yanran suddenly pointed to the cliff next to them and asked, “Brother, what is it?”

Lin Yan looked at where Xiao Yanran was pointing and was surprised. On top of this cliff grew Lingzhi the size of a palm.

Since Lin Yan had been to the herb shop many times, he had a certain understanding of herbs.

At a glance, he could instantly recognize that it was Ganoderma lingzhi.

This makes him very happy. After all, such a Lingzhi could be sold for a great price and it would be enough for these two siblings to live for several years.

Lin Yan thought of sending Xiao Yanran home first, and then returned to retrieve ganoderma lucidum.

But he was afraid it would be robbed by someone.

Therefore, he could only instruct Xiao Yanran, “Adik, I will go and take it. You stay here and I'll be right back.”

Listening to him, Xiao Yanran nodded with a determined attitude

lin Yan placed a large basket on his back and started climbing the cliff.
