Look at the world in all its riotous colors, flowers blooming and falling.
Walk the bustling roads of this world, though thorns lie along the way.
When I suddenly look back on this fleeting life, the one I love is gone, and the friends I forged in blood have left. No one is here to warm wine with me and discuss the world's mysteries, no one to smile with me through the changing seasons, and no one to share the joys, anger, sorrows, and happiness of this mortal world.
I, Xu Ling, can be a god and protect peace throughout the land, or a demon and sweep away all in the eight directions.
