Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind

You Su remembers Yo Jing, the former Sect Leader of the Profound Sky Sect, who lost her life saving Master, and Master felt deeply guilty towards her.

"The notes say that Vuir condenses from the void and is a true product of the Heavenly Dao, born fully loaded with Spiritual Qi. Their condensation is merely to experience and understand the world. Theoretically, Vuir can transform into any form it desires. At that time, Wangshu had already condensed into a human body but lacked a face.

In the last page of the notes, Yo Jing entrusted the last Vuir of the Five Continents to me, telling me that Vuir is the hope of the Five Continents, a god sent down from heaven, and that its identity as Vuir must never be exposed. She wanted me to raise Vuir into a real person, to help her integrate into and save the world. I kept the promise, named Vuir Wangshu, and brought Wangshu back to the Profound Sky Sect to raise her. But what puzzled me was that Wangshu’s face could never successfully condense, so since childhood, she wore a mask."

You Su was somewhat speechless, the shock within him lingered for a long time.

His Sister’s existence was even more special than he imagined, "But... why can’t the face condense? Wasn’t Yo Jing prepared?"

He Shutong shook her head, "When Yo Jing found Vuir, she was already a human form with a Vuir face, which means becoming human was Wangshu’s own decision. As for the reason, Wangshu, tell him yourself."

"Because I don’t know what I should look like."

Wangshu’s reason was very simple, so simple that You Su found it somewhat unbelievable.

From the moment this pure being decided to become human, she had seen all sorts of people, but didn’t know what kind of person she should become.

"If Wangshu never knows what to look like, she may never have a face but remain an elusive being. Her secrets are too vast, and her karma too significant; carelessly intertwining them is not a good thing. So after hearing all this, would you still be willing to become Wangshu’s Dao companion?"

He Shutong sat upright in the pool, her eyes tightly watching the young man’s expressions.

If any trace of hesitation crossed You Su’s face, she would not easily entrust Wangshu to him.

A true person should experience joy and sorrow, all seven emotions and six desires. She did not object to Wangshu finding a Dao companion, but she had to protect this pure soul.

You Su took a deep breath, releasing all the shock from learning his Sister’s true nature, solemnly stating:

"Willing."

Just two simple words, yet seemingly containing a thousand words and endless vows, imbued with indomitable strength.

Wangshu only felt a warm current flow through her body, capturing her with its comforting sensation.

This being, birthed in the void, during her transformation into a human, would have the powerful emotions drive out the chill from her form.

"But I already know what I should look like."

Wangshu suddenly interrupted them both, placing her hand on her Jade Rabbit Mask.

He Shutong, hearing this, was extremely astonished, then a surge of immense relief filled her heart. When Wangshu was finally able to remove her mask, she would become a complete person. Which mother in the world would not feel gratified seeing her child grow into an adult?

"It seems Wangshu has found the self she wants."

He Shutong had to admit, You Su’s arrival truly changed this girl, giving her the thought to remove the mask.

"Yes!"

You Su stared intently in his Sister’s direction, also showing joy.

This was truly his Sister’s face, not a fake face made by evil spirits; it wasn’t to please him, but formed out of her independent will. He was sincerely happy for her.

But just as everyone was eagerly anticipating the appearance of her face, Wangshu lowered the hand placed on the mask again:

"But I haven’t finished gathering it, so I can’t take it off yet."

As these words fell, both You Su and He Shutong inevitably showed some disappointment.

But ultimately, they were different from those outside who coveted Wangshu’s beauty. Wangshu’s face was not that important to them. Even wearing a mask, Wangshu was still Wangshu.

"Wangshu can remove it whenever you feel ready. Once you have your own face, you will be a true person."

He Shutong smiled warmly, recalling the journey of raising Wangshu from such a small girl to today, feeling a profound mixture of emotion and self-reproach.

She had not been entirely competent in fulfilling her duty as a mentor; over these many years, her Ice Heart had not allowed the girl to feel the warmth of the world. Now that the Ice Heart dissolved, she would surely find a way to make amends to the girl.

And from today onwards, there would be another person to care for this pure white girl along with her.

"Su’er, let’s begin."

You Su’s expression stiffened slightly, feeling something in his heart, hurriedly bent his knees, and kneeled down with a thud, proclaiming loudly:

"A marriage contract written, with heaven above, the underworld below, presented to the Nine Heavens, let the Lotus Sword Venerable witness.

Should I fail the fair lady, I’d be guilty of deceiving the heavens, for such deceit, death and the obliteration of the Dao!"
