Long Tianwu himself was a Titled Douluo-level powerhouse, and even a mighty Three-Word Battle Armor Master. Out of guilt and his old comradeship with a former brother-in-arms, he had deliberately used his own origin soul power to nourish Yu Nanyuan's body and Spiritual Sea.
Long Tianwu's martial soul had the same attribute as the Ice Silkworm, and it was an extremely pure Ice Attribute martial soul. With the control granted by his Titled Douluo realm, and with him sparing no expense in consuming his Martial Soul Origin, it could provide excellent nourishment and tempering for a Soul Master's body and Spiritual Sea.
Thanks to this, the pain Yu Nanyuan endured had eased a great deal. The pain he suffered did not come from his body, but from within his Spiritual Sea. It was as if two souls were being forcibly fused together; a number of strange and fragmented memory shards had been stuffed into his Spiritual Sea out of nowhere.
He had not yet awakened his martial soul, and his Spiritual Sea was already fragile to begin with. Back then, when those memory shards merged into him, they had nearly caused him to collapse completely. If not for the aid of those top-tier healing-type Soul Masters, he might even have died long ago.
It was also because of this that Yu Nanyuan had remained unconscious for so long. However, while unconscious, he had vaguely heard some conversations.
The typhoon that swept through Eastsea City had lasted a full week. Not only had this typhoon arrived extremely suddenly, its scale had far surpassed those of the past, producing a massive impact on the entire city. Many large trees along the streets had been uprooted, all kinds of shops could no longer operate, and the city's traffic had briefly fallen into paralysis.
Fortunately, it was all over now.
The various departments of Eastsea City's Administrative Headquarters had begun busily working the moment the typhoon ended, overseeing Repair Work in various places and maintaining order.
After the typhoon passed, the air in Eastsea City seemed especially fresh. Sunlight once again spilled over the land, and the sky was clear for ten thousand miles. Gazing into the distance, one could occasionally see the seven-colored radiance of a rainbow at the edge of the sky.
Yu Nanyuan, who had been unconscious for nearly half a month, slowly opened his eyes, then sat up blankly.
In the mirror embedded in the wall by the foot of the bed, a somewhat pale face was reflected. A few strands of short silver hair fell over his eyelids, the tips slightly curled. Sunlight shone on that rare bright silver hair, scattering countless halos.
And set off against that head of short bright silver hair was a pair of Brilliant Gold Eyes, clear and noble like golden crystal. His delicate features were flawless, like the most perfect work of art, with a fragile, glass-like quality.
If a member of the Opposite Sex were here, he would probably instantly stir the maternal instinct deep within her heart, making her unable to resist holding him in her arms and cherishing him.
Yu Nanyuan raised his head and looked at himself in the mirror. The memories in his mind gradually revived, and the confusion in his eyes swiftly faded.
It wasn't an illusion... Yu Nanyuan murmured inwardly.
His feeling had not been wrong. There was another set of memories in his mind, memories belonging to his previous life.
Click—
Just then, a soft sound came. Immediately after, there was a slightly hurried set of footsteps.
Yu Zhen strode forward to the bedside. Seeing that Yu Nanyuan had finally woken, the heart that had been hanging in suspense finally settled. Yu Nanyuan's recovery speed was even faster than he had expected. Still, he did not forget to carefully use soul power to examine the condition inside Yu Nanyuan's body.
"Nanyuan, how do you feel now? Is there anywhere that still feels uncomfortable, especially..."
When he reached the final sentence, Yu Zhen seemed afraid of making Yu Nanyuan recall that pain that had pierced straight into the depths of his soul, and he appeared somewhat hesitant.
"Grandpa, I'm fine." Looking at Yu Zhen's concerned appearance, Yu Nanyuan instinctively called out, without the slightest sense of unfamiliarity.
Although there had been a fusion of two souls, he was still himself. To him, compared to the Zhuang Zhou Meng Die of his previous life, the experiences of this life instead felt more real. It was as if, from the perspective of a bystander, he had learned of certain things in his Past Life Memory.
Ever since he could remember, Yu Nanyuan had never had any impression of his parents. It was Yu Zhen who had raised him from childhood.
Perhaps because a soul from another world resided in his Spiritual Sea, he had been precocious from birth. In order not to make Yu Zhen worry, ever since he was young, he had always shown an optimistic side. A smile often bloomed across his face, and he had never once brought up anything about his parents.
At this moment, Yu Nanyuan once again habitually revealed to Yu Zhen that smile he had practiced countless times, a perfect yet false smile.
Yu Zhen dotingly rubbed Yu Nanyuan's head, feeling both gratified and heartbroken at how sensible Yu Nanyuan was, but he did not show the slightest abnormality. From beginning to end, he understood everything in his heart; he had merely deliberately maintained a certain tacit understanding with Yu Nanyuan to some extent.
And as for the matter regarding Yu Nanyuan's parents, he also decided to conceal it for the time being.
After confirming that Yu Nanyuan had completely recovered, Yu Zhen smilingly handed Yu Nanyuan the most advanced Soul Guidance Communicator currently available. This Soul Guidance Communicator looked like a small black metal box, but it was extremely light in the hand. Sensing the warmth from Yu Nanyuan's hand, the Soul Guidance Communicator's screen instantly completed its automatic unlock, blooming with pale blue light.
"When you were unconscious before, Xiaoyan was always very worried about you. It was because of this sudden typhoon that I didn't let her come over. Call her first."
"Xiaoyan?" The overlap of two sets of memories made Yu Nanyuan fall into a brief daze again. In those clear Brilliant Gold Eyes, an unusual light surfaced.
The full name of the Xiaoyan Yu Zhen spoke of was Xu Xiaoyan. The Yu Family and the Xu Family were old family friends, and the deep bond between the two sides had been formed as far back as the generation of Yu Zhen and Xu Xiaoyan's grandfather.
Yu Nanyuan and Xu Xiaoyan were also Childhood Sweethearts who had grown up together. Xu Xiaoyan's parents had given him all kinds of warmth and care since he was young. And in his memories from his previous life, there were likewise some matters concerning Xu Xiaoyan.
As his thoughts flew in every direction, the Soul Guidance Communicator in his hand had already dialed a number.
Yu Nanyuan gathered his mind and said softly, "Hello, Xiaoyan."
On the other end of the Soul Guidance Communicator, after a brief silence, a timid female voice quickly sounded. Her voice clearly contained a trace of delight and excitement.
"Nan... Nanyuan, you're awake?!"
"Mm." Yu Nanyuan smiled and nodded, unable to stop Xu Xiaoyan's appearance from surfacing in his mind. She was a very delicate and pretty little girl, yet somewhat timid, though in front of people she was familiar with, she would occasionally reveal a bit of playful cleverness.
There seemed to be other people beside Xu Xiaoyan as well, and the voices became noisy.
Yu Nanyuan was very familiar with this. They were precisely the voices of Xu Xiaoyan's parents, as well as Xu Xiaoyan's older brother, Xu Xiaoyu.
Before long, a steady male voice came again from the other end of the Soul Guidance Communicator.
"Nanyuan, now that I know you're awake, I can relax. How do you feel right now? We'll come over immediately."
"Uncle Xu, I'm doing very well now." Yu Nanyuan replied with a smile, then handed the Soul Guidance Communicator back to Yu Zhen.
"Grandpa, you speak with Uncle Xu and the others."
"Xingwei, you are Eastsea City's finance officer right now. Don't delay official business." Yu Zhen's tone was solemn yet still close, completely like an elder's reminder to a dear nephew.
"Xiaoyan should have already reached the age to awaken her martial soul recently, right? Your family's inherited martial soul is special, and if you want to successfully complete the awakening, you still need to expend some effort to make preparations. Finish these matters first."
"Uncle Yu—" Xu Xingwei still wanted to say something, but Yu Zhen smilingly interrupted him.
"Don't worry. There's nothing seriously wrong with Nanyuan's body anymore. Later, I'll take him to the Spirit Pagoda and have Lao Ji examine him again. We'll also complete his Martial Soul Awakening while we're there."
Listening to the contents of Yu Zhen and Xu Xingwei's conversation, Yu Nanyuan silently looked at his own hands.
Martial soul...
This was the special power on the Douluo Continent. A martial soul could be anything, and if Innate Soul Power accompanied the Martial Soul Awakening, then one could cultivate and become the most honorable Profession, a Soul Master.
Yu Nanyuan began to feel anticipation toward his own martial soul.
