Perhaps This Immortal Can Help Him Recall the Past

The three of them looked in the direction of the voice.

Paimon said excitedly, "Wow, it really worked!"

"Mhm."

Lumine looked at Mu Yang with some concern.

"Wouldn't it be better for you to wait outside?"

She was worried Mu Yang might feel unwell after going inside.

Mu Yang waved his hand.

Indicating he was fine now.

The situation of memories suddenly flooding back was gone.

"I'll go in with you. I also want to meet this 'Cloud Retainer'."

Seeing Mu Yang say that, Lumine didn't try to persuade him further.

She just reminded Mu Yang to let her know immediately if he felt unwell.

Mu Yang felt a little embarrassed by her concern.

Ying was quite gentle and kind in front of him.

She didn't give off that annoying vibe.

He himself had forgotten when exactly "annoying Ying" started.

The three of them walked into Cloud Retainer's grotto-heaven.

As soon as they stepped onto the first small platform, they heard the woman's voice coming from the depths of the cave dwelling.

"Hmm... the aura of the 'Hundred-Proof Talisman'. Although I don't know why you've come here,"

"I'll give you a chance, considering your sincere offerings."

"If you wish to meet me, first overcome the trials of this grotto-heaven that I personally set up."

Cloud Retainer paused for a moment.

"Wait, you are... Hmph!"

Guinaifen's livestream.

"It seems she really knows our Mu Yang."

"It's that last sentence, though. Are they on good terms or not?"

[Oh no, it's over]

[Feels a bit tsundere]

[I think she's tsundere too]

[Has tsundere gone out of meta yet?]

[Wonder if she'll tell some stories about Mu Yang]

Afterward, as if throwing a tantrum, she fell silent.

Lumine and Paimon exchanged glances.

They both found that last sentence rather inexplicable.

Then, they simultaneously looked at Mu Yang.

Paimon gave an awkward laugh, "Ahaha, could it be that you two aren't on very good terms?"

Mu Yang, of course, put on an innocent expression.

Indicating he didn't know what was going on either.

"However, since she didn't kick us out, she probably isn't that bad, right?"

Paimon: "That's true. Then let's hurry inside and find her."

Mu Yang knew.

This was the proud immortal bird throwing a fit.

Mu Yang was also helpless.

These situations were all caused by the settings and corrections.

He couldn't change the past.

However, Cloud Retainer probably wouldn't get truly angry.

About his current situation.

She probably knew about it too.

Mu Yang thought, maybe he could get some information out of her.

Ask her what exactly happened during the hundreds of years of his memory blank.

Mu Yang followed behind Lumine.

Watching her complete the trials set by Cloud Retainer along the way.

Lumine was very familiar with the process.

She didn't need Mu Yang's help.

The three quickly arrived at the depths of the cave dwelling.

Looking up, a large bird was standing on the high wall, looking down at the three of them.

Rather than looking at the three of them.

It was more like she was staring at Mu Yang.

But it seemed she had no intention of speaking.

Paimon stepped up to do its part.

And asked, "Are you 'Cloud Retainer'?"

Cloud Retainer flew down from the wall.

"Little one, don't speak yet. I have something to ask him."

Mu Yang's face was expressionless.

"Please ask, True Lord."

Cloud Retainer: "Why did you break your promise?"

Mu Yang frowned, as he had no idea about this matter at all.

What promise did they have?

[Here we go]

[Is this going to be a love triangle?]

[No way, dude, you're into immortal birds too? I guess you're really hungry]

[They all look the same with the lights off]

[Verdict: Utterly ridiculous]

[I recommend you go to India, they can satisfy you there]

Lumine saw Mu Yang looking confused.

She stepped forward first.

"True Lord, let me explain."

Then she introduced herself first.

And then informed Cloud Retainer of Mu Yang's current situation.

Of course, it was the version Mu Yang had told her earlier.

Cloud Retainer fell into thought after listening.

"So that's how it is. It seems I've wronged you."

She turned her head.

"However, you can't entirely blame me. Why have you never mentioned this matter to me all these years?"

Guinaifen: "She's a bit tsundere."

[I think this immortal bird is still quite charming]

[Immortals can all shapeshift, right? Judging by her voice, she definitely won't be bad]

[I love big birds]

[I'll ship it first]

[Don't ship everything, damn it!]

[But, we still haven't found any news about Mu Yang. Just keep hiding, Salmon]

Cloud Retainer sighed.

"Fine, since you choose to hide it, I won't press further."

"You just need to remember to come to Mount Aocang for gatherings every Chasing Moon Festival from now on."

"That child Shenhe, a few years ago, she even pulled on me and asked, 'Why isn't Master Mu Yang coming anymore?'"

"Now that she's grown up, she stopped asking."

[Satellite character?]

[I have a feeling it's a new waifu]

[Why can't it be a husbando?]

Mu Yang processed the information from Cloud Retainer's words.

He was one of Shenhe's masters.

This meant that at least over a decade ago, he had been able to act normally.

Then, he had an agreement with them.

They were to celebrate the Chasing Moon Festival together at Mount Aocang every year.

But Mu Yang had broken this promise for many years.

That's why Cloud Retainer was acting moody.

Understanding this, Mu Yang readily agreed.

He said he wouldn't forget the Chasing Moon Festival anymore.

Only then did the pressure from Cloud Retainer lessen slightly.

Lumine was now certain that Cloud Retainer was an old acquaintance of Mu Yang.

So she began to ask about Mu Yang's identity.

Asking about Mu Yang's origins.

And whether he was truly an Immortal.

Cloud Retainer finally arrived at her most skilled domain—chatting.

"I'm not entirely sure about Mu Yang's origins myself."

"Even his closest friends might not know."

"If he doesn't say anything, everyone tacitly agrees not to ask."

Paimon chimed in.

"So, have you known each other for a long time?"

Cloud Retainer looked up at the sky.

"For about a thousand years."

Lumine and Paimon both showed expressions of shock.

"A thousand years?!"

Silver Wolf's stream.

Silver Wolf analyzed.

"It seems Mu Yang's background isn't simple."

"But that's understandable. If you judge his age solely by his appearance,"

"his strength and age don't quite match."

[Can't he just be a genius prodigy?]

[The most important thing is his eyes, they don't look like a teenager's]

[Host, can you post an analysis thread when you have time? I just followed you, and I feel you're more capable than the Truthful Immortal]

Little Wolf replied to the comment.

"Sure, I'll go prove them wrong after I finish the story."

[Let's fight!]

[Yay, I love seeing people tear each other down]

Lumine looked at Mu Yang.

"He doesn't seem like it either."

Mu Yang teased Lumine.

"What's so strange about that? You slept for several hundred years yourself."

Lumine scratched her head.

"That's true, I guess."

Cloud Retainer began to exert her strength.

She officially unlocked her chatty mode.

"Speaking of which, the first time this Immortal saw Mu Yang was on Mount Aocang."

"Since his memory is currently confused, perhaps this Immortal can tell him about the past."

"Maybe it will help him remember something."
