Chapter 228: Falling Leaves are Beautiful; They Only Live One Season

"Time flies so quickly..." he said quietly. Practicing Cultivation on his own, he could truly sense the passage of time. His senses were no longer those of a mortal's.

As he reminisced, he thought of Chen Fan, Elder Sister Xu and Fatty. Various scenes played out in his head. He knew where they were, but they... they had no idea where he was.

By this time, the name of Meng Hao was already a thing of the past. Few people brought it up any more. Soon, everyone would forget it. All the waves from the events four years ago had died down and disappeared.

"Life is like a dream, like a leaf that, no matter how beautiful, can only live for one season...." He looked at the buds sprouting from the great trees off in the distance and a smile broke out on his face. He liked his identity here as Fang Mu. He enjoyed how being in the East Pill Division felt like being in an institute of higher learning. He lifted his hand, and a jade slip appeared on his palm.

Indeed. Autumn leaves are beautiful, but they live only for a season.

Also sakura flowers are beautiful, but they only bloom for a week or so.

'yang terindah hanya sementara'

oh, of course there was a song for it, by Erra Fazira, a Malay singer.

Setinggi seluas gunung dan lautan
Sejuta harapan dipertaruhkan
Beronak berliku jalan kulalui
Selagi berupaya kuteruskan

Alangkah sukarnya memadam bayangan masa silam
Di dalam keberanian terusik jua perasaan
Tiada hentinya memanjangkan doa
Semoga jiwa ini terus tabah

Sesungguhnya saat yang terindah hanyalah sementara
Yang terpahat di dalam diri hanya kenangan dan nestapa

Tak rela kuturutkan hati
Menyesali apa yang terjadi
Andainya begitu suratan yang tertulis diazali

Biarlah walaupun kusepi
Sedih pedih dikhianati
Aku kan tetap terus mengorak langkah perjalanan ini
