X-Dragon Era

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Ming Xuan's expression changed in an instant, his face becoming pale as he slowly raised his head and looked deeply at Xin Yun. "You're right, I admit it... you see very clearly. But I don't even know what to do myself. You should understand that love and hate are not controlled by oneself, to like is to like, to hate is to hate. I can't control it. Please, help me... I'm begging you."

Upon hearing Ming Xuan's words, Xin Yun let out a huge sigh of relief. It was evident... even at this moment, even though Xin Yun was so embarrassed, Ming Xuan still regarded him as a brother, as a mate, as a friend.

Many shameful things might need to be carried on one's shoulders alone, hidden from parents and relatives, but in front of brothers, anything can be spoken about and discussed. This is what it means to be brothers!

Although Ming Xuan felt ashamed of his own feelings, he didn't have much resistance to showing them in front of Xin Yun. So what if it was embarrassing? They were brothers. What was there to mock? If they were true buddies, then they would help come up with ideas, help console.

As he pondered, Xin Yun said with a smile, "Actually, you don't need to feel ashamed. In this world, there are not many people like you, but you are definitely not alone. This is what's called an Oedipus complex. Many people have this tendency; the only difference lies in the depth of it."

Pausing there, Xin Yun then continued, "The attraction between men and women has no fixed rules. Although your feelings indeed aren't widely accepted by this world, they are not unfounded. After all... you're a man, she's a woman, and mutual feelings of fondness and love have developed, which is all very normal. The key lies in how you deal with it!"

Listening to Xin Yun's analysis, Ming Xuan nodded slightly, seeming to have an epiphany. He felt significantly more relaxed on the inside. Observing Ming Xuan's expression carefully, Xin Yun knew... whether Ming Xuan could overcome his psychological barrier and successfully display his plumage depended not on his love for his mother, but on his sense of shame regarding that love. If he always saw that love as something filthy, then he would likely never be able to proclaim it publicly, even at the cost of his life.

The formation of a dragon results from the Dragon Creation Stone merging with a person's soul, two becoming one. Ming Xuan's psychological state directly determined the Peacock Dragon's performance. When Ming Xuan saw his own feelings as the filthiest of things, how could the Peacock Dragon possibly display its plumage? Don't forget, the peacock displays its plumage to court a mate. If this love could not be professed publicly, how could it display its plumage?

As Ming Xuan appeared contemplative, Xin Yun continued, "Without a doubt, love is the most beautiful thing in the world, and this is universally recognized. Before this definition, no qualifications or explanations were added, which means, although the love you have for your mother might not be accepted by everyone, it is still the most beautiful. You don't need to blame yourself for it, let alone feel dirty about it. Love is the purest, most beautiful thing. How could it be dirty?"

"But..." Hearing Xin Yun's words, Ming Xuan frowned again and struggled to say, "But... although what you say makes sense, she is still my mother, after all... "

Shaking his head, Xin Yun said earnestly, "Ming Xuan, look at me and tell me seriously, isn't Mother Lan a woman worth of a man's love?"

Stunned, Ming Xuan emphatically responded, "Is that even a question? Mother is the most perfect, most beautiful woman in the world, worthy of everyone's love!"

Shrugging his shoulders, Xin Yun said with a laugh, "There you have it. Since she's so perfect, so wonderful, then what's the problem with you loving her? In your own words, she's worthy of everyone's love, and that includes you too."

Ming Xuan opened his mouth in surprise, about to counter, but he couldn't find any words to say. Yes... if Mother is so beautiful, so perfect, and her temperament so gentle, what's so strange about loving her? Although this love shouldn't exist, there's no doubt that it is love, the purest, most beautiful kind of love. On this aspect, Ming Xuan was absolutely confident!

Seeing Ming Xuan speechless, Xin Yun's expression turned serious as he said sternly, "You shouldn't see this love as so filthy. By thinking that way, you not only defile yourself but also insult Mother Lan. Remember this, she's a good woman worthy of any man's love, and you are one of them because you are a man too!"

Looking at Xin Yun hesitantly, Ming Xuan stuttered, "You're right, this love isn't dirty, but it is still a love that shouldn't exist. We are mother and son after all!"

Hearing Ming Xuan's words, Xin Yun was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "What do you feel? I'll be straightforward. Do you really want to possess her? Do you want her to be your woman?"

"Ah!" At Xin Yun's words, Ming Xuan was shocked and exclaimed, "No, no, no... What are you talking about! She's my mother, how could I have such thoughts? I just want to be by her side forever. Seeing her smile makes me so happy, so joyful, utterly content."

Nodding knowingly, Xin Yun gave a wry smile. While this could be considered an Oedipus complex, it was clear... it was a kind of love that lay between maternal affection and fondness, a true, selfless love that didn't aspire to receive anything in return. That made things much easier. If he was only complete upon obtaining something, then Xin Yun wouldn't be able to help him.

As he thought, Xin Yun slapped his thigh and laughed heartily, "There you go, Ming Xuan... Let me tell you, the love you have is very normal. If you like it this way, just continue on. No one will blame you. Actually... Mother Lan knew about this situation a long time ago."
