Xie Feng's forehead creased with annoyance. "Is that what you're focusing on?!"
Kong Qiusu asked, "What do you want me to say?"
Xie Feng asked, "You didn't speak or give me anything, so why did you use the power of the Literary Dao Dragon and Phoenix to summon me here?"
Kong Qiusu in confusion, "Didn't we already give you the inheritance? What else do you want?"
Xie Feng: "..."
He was Wordless.
Kong Qiusu phoenix eyes, then seemed to suddenly realize, "You probably want praise? Hmm, I can grant your wish! In just twenty years, the legacy I left behind has found an inheritor, a junior in the Dao Realm. You've done very well!"
Xie Feng: "..."
Sure enough, the senior brother didn't recognize him! He thought he was a junior from the Dao Realm!
Kong Qiusu said, "Judging from your expression, are you dissatisfied?"
Xie Feng said quietly, "If you had known earlier that this inheritance was left by you, you would have seen me sooner!"
"My legacy is not something that ordinary people can possess."
"I know!"
You don't seem very happy?
"Having this power is something I'm used to!"
"You've suddenly become arrogant. To be honest, I don't like arrogant people. This kind of personality always reminds me of... a really annoying guy."
Kong Qiusu knelt down, gazing out of the cave, seemingly looking at Xie Feng, or perhaps at the moonlight.
A touch of melancholy slowly welled up in his lonely eyes, as if opening a long-sealed box of memories, and a slight emotion flickered across his face.
Xie Feng smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the person you're talking about is called Chu Kuang! The Devil Emperor Chu Kuang! And if I'm still not mistaken, he also has another name, Ge Ya!"
"Who are you?" Kong Qiusu's expression changed.
"Guess! There's a prize if you guess right!" Xie Feng felt safe and at ease in his presence, and his speech became much more playful.
"..."
Kong Qiusu silent again.
The cave was silent; silence was the Cambridge of tonight...
Xie Feng took two steps forward, stared at the person in the cave, and said with slight excitement:
"I'm not pretending anymore, I'm coming clean! Senior Brother, I'm your junior brother, Xie Feng! Can you recognize me? Nearly twenty years have passed, and you're still as gentle and refined as I remember! But I've changed so much!"
This is a genuine expression of emotion!
Kong Qiusu raised his eyes, his expression momentarily stunned. He looked at Xie Feng Xie Feng, who pursed his lips, his eyes sparkling!
The soft moonlight drifted down, falling on Xie Feng's slightly trembling shoulders. A feeling, poignant and indescribable, was conveyed through the moonlight, permeating the world...
"I long for my old friend in the west, but he is nowhere to be seen; the east wind blows my dreams to Chang'an."
"I was so surprised and delighted to suddenly meet you here, as if I had fallen into a fog of joy."
Xie Feng murmured.
His eyes reddened; he was deeply moved, a feeling of meeting an old friend in a foreign land!
Kong Qiusu smiled slightly and asked, "Who is Xie Feng?"
Xie Feng: "..."
Big brother!
The atmosphere had already reached this point, what are you doing here?!
He's such a good senior brother!
He almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Kong Qiusu pondered for a moment, then blinked and smiled, "I remember now, you're my junior brother Little Feng... Ah, senior brother's eyes are too poor, I didn't even recognize you!"
Xie Feng: "..."
Is this a joke, or just a joke?
Senior Brother, your sudden reaction is quite frightening...
Although it wasn't the family reunion scene he had imagined, at least the fellow disciples had recognized each other. Xie Feng then went into the cave to get closer to his senior brother.
He sighed, "Senior brother, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but you haven't changed your old habits after all these years. Why are you hiding in the cave again?"
Kong Qiusu said, "Purity."
Xie Feng sighed, speechless. Looking at his senior brother, who appeared translucent like a drawing on tracing paper, he finally asked the question he'd always wanted to, "Senior brother, where's your body? What happened to it?"
"..."
Kong Qiusu silent for a moment, then said, "Can I say... that I have forgotten my original self?"
Xie Feng was startled. "Oh, where did you leave it?"
Kong Qiusu: "I forgot!"
Xie Feng: "..."
That statement seems to make sense!
If that's the case, then the senior brother forgetting him just now wasn't a joke; he really has amnesia!
However, he was able to quickly remember things after seeing Xie Feng!
This shows that deep within Kong Qiusu's memory lies the profound emotional bond with the Xuanji Sect. This bond prevented him from easily forgetting it, even as his physical body shattered and his soul wandered.
Xie Feng tentatively asked, "Senior Brother, can you remember how your original body disappeared? Was it because of battle, or some other reason?"
Kong Qiusu shook his head; he really couldn't remember!
"Then what are you going to do?" Xie Feng asked.
"This cave is quite nice. I wonder who carved it. It's warm in winter and cool in summer, and very quiet. I really like it for cultivating a pure and desireless mind."
Kong Qiusu smiled, clearly satisfied with the environment.
"This godforsaken place is so remote, you could practically be in outer space in just a couple of steps. How could it not be peaceful!"
Xie Feng couldn't help but complain, and then said, "Senior brother, how about this? You're a soul now, so why don't you stay in my body? I'll help you regain your physical form and memories!"
Luckily, the eldest brother likes to hide in caves. If he went outside, being a spirit with amnesia, who knows what kind of commotion he would cause!
Kong Qiusu nodded, "Alright!"
As he spoke, he transformed into a beam of white light and entered Xie Feng's Dantian.
" Little Sword, you have company now!" Xie Feng looked down at his Dantian and smiled.
"Can I say... I'm perfectly fine?" Little Sword's voice was muffled.
"No!" Xie Feng said coldly.
"..." Little Sword was speechless.
As Xie Feng turned to leave, a question suddenly occurred to him. He frowned and cautiously asked, "Senior brother, what is your current cultivation level?"
Kong Qiusu asked, "What's wrong?"
Xie Feng said, "I have a knack for making enemies. I've been constantly fighting and killing along the way. I'm afraid I'll run into someone too monstrous and won't be able to protect you!"
Kong Qiusu said, "I lost my original body and my memories. Although my strength is not at its peak, this sword can be destroyed with a single palm strike!"
Xie Feng was relieved. "That's good!"
Little Sword: "..."
"Depend on!"
"I have no grudge against you fellow disciples, so why don't you respect me at all?"
"That bastard surnamed Gai gave me the middle finger! Your master threatened my master! And now this stinking scholar is acting so arrogantly. What do I owe you?!"
Little Sword was furious; it angrily accused...
Xie Feng was taken aback. "My master?"
Little Sword retorted angrily, "Hey! Why are you focusing on this? I'm angry!"
Xie Feng blinked, still lost in thought about what they had just said. He seemed to be talking to himself, "So, the reason I was able to wield the Extreme Dao Sword that day was because Master was helping me? No wonder, that power felt so warm and familiar back then..."
Little Sword scoffed, "Otherwise what? My noble and aloof Extreme Dao Sword wouldn't stoop to this level unless I was threatened. Although... after spending so many days together, I think you're quite a nice person..."
