All fans of Shen Xinya, her rivals in the music world, or any music lovers in general who were aware of thetest news undoubtedly knew about the song called ’Love of God’. This was the first songposed by Shen Xinya, she herself said that when sheposed the lyrics of the song she was barely 15 years old back then.
The most surprising thing was that Shen Xinya herself admitted that she could not find any melody that would properly fit the lyrics of the song. It wasn’t that there were no talented musicians across the globe; with Shen’s family finances, she spentrge amounts of money to have world-famousposers create a unique melody for her song Love of God.
However, no matter how much Shen Xinya invested, it did not matter if it was piano, harp, zither, guitar, flute, etc... No melodyposed by any kind of instrument matched what she was looking for.
There were even many young music-loving masters with some talent in that field who took the trouble to travel from afar in an attempt to curry favor with the beautiful singer. Unfortunately for these hot-blooded young men, they were all rejected before they even got a look at the woman they loved.
Therefore, when Shen Xinya announced that as the closing of herst concert she would sing her first creation, the whole ce erupted in cheers and fervent shouts.
What better than to close a cycle with what started it?
The first song for thest concert.
After the agitated fans calmed down slightly and the silence slowly returned, Shen Xinya apologized: "I apologize in advance but, as many of you probably already know, I have not yet found a melody that suits my expectations for Love of God. Although I will sing without instrumental apaniment, I hope you all can enjoy it."
To make things easier for her, the ce wentpletely silent, to which she obliged with a smile.
A concert by a pop singer without instrumental apaniment; was something that didn’t happen often.
Shen Xinya stared at the person sitting in seat number 7 before taking a deep breath and slowly closing her eyes. Thousands of thoughts crossed her mind in that small second.
Her eyes slowly opened, shining under the dim light of the small circr lights that surrounded the stage; like two beautiful stars. Her red lips opened and an extremely charming voice came out of her mouth:
"<i>When I was younger, and I loved the god above us.</i>
<i>I never thought it so; our farewell was fated from the time we said hello</i>
<i>Ooo~</i>
<i>If only I’d known, we’d be forced apart by others</i>
<i>Then I would have made you stay, and hold me once again within your warm embrace</i>
<i>Whoa-oh-oh~</i>
<i>It’s a long, long goodbye</i>
<i>Farewell, my love; farewell, my love; are you out there?</i>
<i>I wish again, repeat the words dancing through my head</i>
<i>If I wave my hands, oh could I get one more chance? Oo~</i>
<i>I want the courage to be strong</i>
<i>Meeting you that time, the stars began to shine, and I was given life</i>
<i>I love you, so I’m enough; I will always carry on</i>
<i>Hope is fading and the miracles are fleeting, still, I’ll wait for you</i>
<i>Barely seeing through my tears, but I know the’s light is gone...</i>
<i>I can’t forget it, the warmth of you around me</i>
<i>Your kind and gentle hands, your smile and your eyes that speak of romance</i>
<i>Ooo~</i>
<i>Why did it end like this?</i>
<i>I’m drowning in my tears,</i>
<i>and I can’t stop them...</i>
<i>It’s a long, long goodbye...</i>"
Everyone was intoxicated by Shen Xinya’s singing as well as the sad lyrics contained in the love song. Even from a distance, everyone could see the faint glow of tears around her beautiful eyes; as if she was suffering from infinite sadness as she sang.
People could not stop the tears from sliding down their faces silently as their admiration for the beautiful woman singing on stage grew stronger with each passing second.
Shen Xinya was like that. She always put her soul into her singing. However, this was the first time they felt sadnessing from deep within her heart as she sang.
<i>Buzz</i>
Xie Feng’s body shuddered hard in his seat. His eyes could no longer see the beautiful scene in front of him. With only his ears still connecting him to the real world, he felt as if his soul no longer belonged to him, his body was no longer his, and his movements had stagnated.
...
...
"It’s a girl." A cheerful woman’s voice along with a baby’s cry broke through the small room.
"Let me... Let me see her." A beautiful womany on a bed, she looked to be about thirty years old, said in a tired voice.
After receiving her baby handed to her by the midwife, the beautiful woman whose hair was as dark as night smiled. Even the fatigue in her eyes seemed to disappear as they were filled with affection looking at the new life in her arms.
"Shh... Shh... Don’t cry my baby... Don’t cry..." The mother’s voice was as soft as the spring breeze.
"Mommy! Can I hold her?"
A child’s too loud voice sounded.
The woman looked up and her eyes filled with affection as she saw the 7 or 8 years old boy approaching with quick steps.
"Mom! Can I? Please?" The child asked once more. His two big eyes looked curiously at the little baby in his mother’s arms.
The beautiful woman giggled softly and very carefully handed the baby to the child. However, her arms were still close just as a precaution.
The child’s eyes looked at the little girl who had now stopped crying and looked at him with her two big ck eyes with the same curiosity. Although she was a newborn, she could feel that she and the boy were connected through blood.
"How about you give her a name?" the beautiful woman couldn’t help but let out as she watched her two children silently looking at each other as if they weremunicating through their gaze.
"Really!?" The boy eximed excitedly. Quickly, fearing that his mother would change her mind, he said, "Then she’ll be named-..."
...
...
Two boys about 8 or 9 years old were fighting. However, it was obvious that one of them could not even defend himself properly.
One of the boys had a strange bone-white aura around his body and was brutally beating the other boy. The second boy looked no different to a normal person.
There were more young children and teenagers in the vicinity watching the scene with amusement. The disdain in their eyes as they watched the boy fall to the ground was evident to anyone; none of them had any idea of interfering.
"Trash that can’t cultivate." The boy who was surrounded by an bone-white aura sneered. "I really don’t understand why your family keeps wasting resources on you."
"Hey! What do you think you’re doing!"
The childish and immature cry of a little girl attracted everyone’s attention.
A very small girl, only 2 or 3 years old ran at a speed faster than the average person and stood in front of the boy who was lying on the ground.
"You are not allowed to hurt my big brother!" The little girl screamed. However, she was so cute that instead of terror she only provoked tenderness.
The young victorughed and teased, "See, even your little sister can cultivate herself."
Without a care in the world, the boy who was surrounded by the bone-white aura took a step forward and easily pushed the little girl to the ground.
The little girl fell on her little butt and her eyes filled with tears threatening to fall at any moment.
The mind of the boy who was on the ground and had been beaten went nk when he saw his little sister being treated like this. His eyes ck as night suddenly began to change and in less than a second had be as golden as the purest gold.
"Little girls should stay in-" The boy who was suddenly boasting stopped in the middle of his speech and looked to the side hurriedly.
Thest thing the boy saw was a hand no bigger than his own holding his head before exploding in a mist of blood.
...
...
"Brother..."
"Big brother..."
"Big brother Xie Feng!"
"Wha-....." Xie Feng shuddered fiercely and looked at his surroundings only to see Xie Yao’s worried face beside him.
"Is something wrong?" Xie Yao asked as she looked at him with obvious worry. "You suddenly started whispering strange things and your gaze had be different from normal..."
Shen Xinya’s beautiful voice continued to sound. Everyone was enchanted by the song and her voice so no one noticed anything strange.
"No... It’s nothing." Xie Feng shook his head. "I’m fine. Just surprised at how beautiful this song is, that’s all."
Perplexed and feeling something strange, Xie Yao nodded and did not continue to press further. She also began to quietly enjoy the heavenly voice of the woman in front of her.
Xie Feng adjusted himself in his seat and imperceptibly dried the sweat that had begun to umte on his forehead. He had a puzzled, confused, and at the same time slightly frightened look on his face.
Even while singing, while her emotions were fluttering, Shen Xinya spent most of her time staring at seat number 7. The nerves she felt as she sang and the sadness she felt in her heart were so great that no one present could even imagine.
Even she herself did not know why she wanted Xie Feng to be there. She just knew that he should be there, that was all.
"<i>Catch a falling star that burns with the power to light a roaring fire.</i>
<i>Still I want to love someone, and be loved by someone</i>
<i>Drop your act, don’t you lie to me, you know you can’t survive like this</i>
<i>Still you’re shutting out the world, closing off your ears to my sound...</i>
<i>Why did it end like this?</i>
<i>I’m drowning in my tears,</i>
<i>and I can’t stop them...</i>
<i>Meeting you that time, the stars began to shine, and I was given life (Ooo~)</i>
<i>I love you, so I’m enough; and I’ll always carry on!</i>
<i>Hope is fading and the miracles are fleeting, so I’ll make a stand</i>
<i>Barely seeing through my tears, still I know the’s light is gone...</i>
<i>If another life was granted to us, I’d want us to meet once more</i>
<i>When you find me, hold me tight; keep me close to you throughout the night</i>
<i>Promise me you won’t let go of me that time, and never will again</i>
<i>Wishing for the light of hope, though there are no whispers from that...</i>"
