"What are you thinking about?" Mu asked.
"Things that happened in the past."
Gu Qingshan gave a brief reply.
He recalled what Fei Ying had quietly told him through telepathy, then thought of Xiaolou's identity.
At first, Xiaolou hadn't wanted to reveal his identity.
But even as an Apostle, he couldn't control that power of Epoch Awakening at all.
It seemed his other self was constantly strengthening the power of the Fire Saint Pillar.
And the Fire Saint Pillar had brought about a miracle.
A miracle...
The news Mu had mentioned--
Xie Guhong was still alive.
He was in a Yellow Springs world, where he had to drink a cup of Forgetfulness River Water every hour.
...Perhaps he wasn't really alive.
After all, that was the Yellow Springs World.
Thoughts flashed through Gu Qingshan's mind without pause.
Mu's voice came from beside him. "Remembering the past... want a drink?"
"I've got some good liquor ready," Zhang Yinghao said at once.
Who knew where he'd gotten them, but he produced three large glass cups, split a bottle of liquor between them, and handed the cups to the other two.
"To the past."
"Cheers."
Mu and Zhang Yinghao drank together every day, so there was nothing surprising about it. Mu took the cup and drained it.
He set the cup down and turned to Gu Qingshan. "So, what should I do with these things?"
A stream of multicolored light swirled in his hand.
--The Source of the Five Elements.
The Source of the Five Elements from the Primordial World.
Gu Qingshan finished his drink too, then said, "With my Foundation Establishment cultivation, it won't be easy to take a trip to the Yellow Springs. But my sword is still waiting for me in the Yellow Springs corresponding to this world."
"That's easy."
