Nothing was forever. Some things, once lost, were lost forever and could never be found again. Jiang Ning took a deep breath. "How about you? Don't you want to find the Longevity Pond too?"

"I had no intention of doing so. I just wanted to kill the asshole and make him pay for what he did to me. That's the only reason I'm alive. Otherwise, I would have killed myself. Being alive is boring." Peter Pan shook his head. He didn't seem to care about death at all, as if there weren't much difference between being dead or alive. "But now, I want to stay alive."

Jiang Ning threw him a look.

"I have a disciple now!" His lips split into a wide grin. "Destiny has brought your daughter and me together. She's fated to be my disciple. I can't die until I've taught her everything."

He shook his head and gave Jiang Ning a serious look. "I have to pass down everything I know. It's a good thing that asshole damaged my coffin. Otherwise, I would be bringing all my knowledge and wisdom to the grave. Wouldn't that be a waste?"

Jiang Ning found that amusing.

Peter Pan was indeed a boy that had never grown up. The way he thought was so different from everyone else.

He cared little about death but would throw himself into a fight if he felt aggrieved. In fact, he would climb out of his own coffin to seek revenge. He was a true man of passion!

"What I want to do now is to train this disciple and teach her everything that I know!"

The look on Peter Pan's face was filled with hope.

Jiang Ning nearly burst into laughter. His daughter had just been born and was barely a month old. There was no way she could learn martial arts now.

Besides, he was still a little reluctant to let her learn martial arts. Practicing martial arts was hard work. He couldn't bear for her to suffer any hardship.

"As for the Longevity Pond," Peter Pan said nonchalantly, "you should just go look for it. The water is like a miracle drug. Give your kid a bath in that water and I guarantee she'll have a bright future in martial arts!"

His thoughts were occupied by his disciple. It didn't matter that his disciple was asleep in the room right now, unaware that she had gotten herself a master.

"That asshole's trying so hard to

make your life difficult because he

wants to get you involved in the search for the Longevity Pond. You could just go look for it," said Peter

Pan The stuff in that pond's good

for you too. It's good for me and my disciple as well."

He didn't like to be coerced into doing things, but now that he thought about it, looking for the Longevity Pond wasn't that bad an idea after all. He could live for a very, very long time and while he was alive, he could protect his disciple. It was great!

Peter Pan had a simple mind that resembled the mind of a child.

But Jiang Ning didn't want anything from the Longevity Pond. He didn't want to live forever. He wanted a life that was well lived. That was enough for him. There was no point in living forever and watching his loved ones grow old, die and leave him

Wouldn't that feel lonely?

"Why should anyone want to live that long a life?" Jiang Ning smiled and shook his head. "I think we should abide by the laws of nature. We should grow old and then pass on. That's how life should be. Everyone should accept that."

There was no point in defying the laws of nature. Life was about growing up and growing old together.

Peter Pan stared at Jiang Ning as if he were staring at a monster.

It seemed as if Jiang Ning were the ancient monster that had lived past a hundred years, whose mindset was stuck in the olden days and who wasn't quite right in the head.Content provided by .

He stood up. He couldn't be bothered to waste his time talking to Jiang Ning. He didn't care whether Jiang Ning looked for the Longevity Pond or not.

He had found something fun to do. When his disciple grew old and could finally walk and talk, he would begin his lessons. He couldn't shake the feeling that Jiang Ning's daughter's fate was somehow bound with his.

This might be another chance for him.

"Hold on, what's my disciple called?" Peter Pan turned around after taking a few steps. "She needs to have a good name."

Jiang Ning smiled. He hadn't thought of one. Before he could say a word, Peter Pan seemed to have made up his mind. "Let's call her Jiang Yao!"
