The dark alter ego was stunned upon hearing his father’s words. His father knew what the sealed world was like, but only a sealed ego would know this—how did he know? Xie Yi was shocked as well. His father had chosen him because the former knew that he would never be able to survive in the sealed world.

“Both of you are my children and I can’t bear to give up either. I am a selfish person. I want to give everything to my child, not just half the world, so I can only let you suffer. You are the best so you will definitely be stronger than the warm Xie Yi in the future.

“I picked the warm Xie Yi because I believe in his kindness and optimism. When he discovers your existence, he will not kill you—he will find a way to keep you and solve this problem. This is the one thing that you can never do. You are cold and logical, so you will always choose the best path for yourself. You will not take any risks and this is why I can’t choose you. The secret technique of the Xie family seals the dark alter ego safely…”

Xie Ling reached out and caressed Xie Yi’s forehead. “However, the kind and vibrant Xie Yi will let the devil in his heart appear easily. The seal will be destroyed, but I hope that during that time, you will be able to direct all your hate on me and live well together with the warm Xie Yi. I believe that the warm Xie Yi will be willing to do so as well.”

Xie Ling gazed at Xie Yi remorsefully, merely sitting where he was in a daze for a few minutes. He only regained his senses when Xie Yi started crying, quickly hugging and coaxing him…

Ling Lan snapped her fingers and the scene in front of them disappeared. The next second, they were back in the sealed world.

“This is the truth? He sacrificed me so that he could live??” The dark alter ego looked cold and angry. He found it funny that his father had given him up to keep the weaker ego alive.

“In actual fact, your father understand the two of you very well. You’re still alive. Although you’re a little malicious, you aren’t a lunatic yet,” Ling Lan said calmly.

“But why did I have to suffer for so many years because of him?” The dark alter ego sneered. He hated his father and Xie Yi even more now.

“You father said that it was because he wanted you two to be stronger,” Ling Lan explained.

“I will become stronger if he is alive? What a joke.” The dark alter ego was unable to accept her explanation.

“You know that it’s the truth.” Ling Lan stared at the dark alter ego coldly. The dark alter ego was speechless.

“This point was proven when you worked together with Xie Yi just now. Your father must have been clear about this,” Ling Lan continued.

Xie Yi eyes started glowing and he interrupted Ling Lan. “Boss, do you mean that my father knew what would happen after the seal was broken?”

Ling Lan nodded. “Yes. My guess is that your father personally broke his own seal and interacted with the sealed ego. He probably worked together with his dark alter ego before, which is how he knew what the sealed world is like and what would happen after the seal is removed. Of course, there is another possibility. Your father might have come to know a little about it due to a good friend of his experiencing something similar.

“You might live a peaceful life without half of your ego and you could still advance quickly. However, removing half of yourself is the same as removing half of your talent—you’ll never be able to reach the peak of your potential. Your father knows this so he wanted to give you both the chance of reaching the peak. That is why he chose the best path for you. He didn’t care if other people misunderstood him.”

Xie Yi was in a daze as he listened to Ling Lan. His face dimmed. “No wonder my father doesn’t like to stay at home. I never noticed it the last time, but now that I think about it, he would always take the missions that no one wanted to take. The long, hard and dangerous missions…”

“That’s because he’s stupid. He brought it on himself,” the dark alter ego said angrily. If his father had chosen him at the start, he would not have needed to live such a hard life.

“Don’t say bad things about my father,” Xie Yi yelled angrily. Xie Yi was brought up by his father and the latter had always loved him. Hence, he couldn’t accept his dark alter ego saying bad things about his father. He pounced at the dark alter ego and the two of them broke into a fight, rolling back and forth on the sea.

Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and moved away from them.

Both of them harbored grudges against each other, so it would benefit them if they had a small fight now. Also, Ling Lan felt that boys should fight occasionally; it was a good way of improving their relations.h.i.+p. Xie Yi’s egos were both guys so this rule would apply to them.

Xie Yi and the dark alter ego fought for almost half a day before finally getting tired. They lay on the floor together, panting.

Having calmed down, Xie Yi looked at the dark alter ego. He no longer hated or feared his dark alter ego. He opened his mouth and said, “I’m sorry! Thank you!”

The dark alter ego was stunned. He knew what these words meant.

Xie Yi continued, “Father was right. With my personality, I wouldn’t have been able to survive a day in this world. I would definitely not have been able to survive for 16 years.” He suddenly smiled. “If you were the main ego, I might not have been able to break through the seal for my entire life. There would have only been two endings for me—going crazy or disappearing totally. My endurance isn’t as good as yours.”

He was not as strong as Luo Lang either. If it was Luo Lang, he would be able to survive in any kind of environment. He had so many personalities inside his mind and every single one of them never gave up pestering and trying to control him. However, he still maintained his personality. He was optimistic and happy. On the other hand, he, Xie Yi, had only one dark alter ego. He would become frustrated, agitated, scared… he felt that he was quite weak. His father’s concern was right.

Xie Yi was grateful to his father for all the things he had done. When he thought about this, he felt sorry towards the dark alter ego and was grateful to his dark alter ego as well. His dark alter ego had been sealed for 16 years, yet he still controlled his hatred and anger to work together with him.

The dark alter ego pouted with disdain. “It’s good that you know.”

He had been fighting Xie Yi for three years, so he knew what kind of person the latter was. Xie Yi would definitely not have been able to survive in this sealed world. Even if the seal was broken accidentally in the future, a crazy or dead Xie Yi would have been no threat to him. However, Xie Yi’s boss was right too. Without Xie Yi, he would lose the chance to reach his full potential.
