Chapter 58 The Fifty-Eighth Day of Kong Xuan's Game Making
Although he didn't know why the weather was so beautiful despite being the same as usual, Kong Xuan naturally wouldn't spoil his master's mood since his master had said he could steal half a day of leisure.
Of course, it wasn't because my master wanted to admire my heroic bearing.
With Kong Xuan obediently settling down, Yuan Yi naturally didn't forget his little apprentice.
She mimicked Hongyun's technique and pinched Dapeng's cheek until Dapeng's face turned red, then stopped with a smile.
Taking advantage of the gap before Kong Xuan could catch up, they quickly played the second clip, capitalizing on the hype.
Little Ginseng is indeed quite capable.
The previous slice is a collection of the essence of Kong Xuan's teachings. Kong Xuan was a wise and virtuous teacher who patiently guided people toward the Way.
This segment completely overturns Kong Xuan's previous image. From observing the ferocious beasts setting up formations at the beginning, to deliberately luring the Xingxing and creating dangerous situations, and even the final lecture and counterattack, through subtle details and psychological descriptions added by the narration, each step is linked together to form a flawless scheme.
Coupled with tightly paced music and strikingly artistic visuals, the image of a meticulous and shrewd strategist is vividly portrayed.
However, this brilliant strategist looks like a child, and is indeed only three months old.
Thinking of this, Yuan Yi almost couldn't help but laugh, and quickly swiped to the next slice.
The next one is even more outrageous: the arrangement of Kong Xuan's photos from various angles, with suitable filters and wonderful angles, plus atmospheric background images. It completely elevates Kong Xuan into an unparalleled and handsome man.
Pfft, she managed to hold back her laughter. Yuan Yi tried her best to maintain her composure, but her slightly trembling body completely betrayed her.
Next up is the amazing journey of three-year-old Kong Xuan. Unlike the composed image that was carefully crafted above, this segment emphasizes what you see is what you get, carefully analyzing the reality that Kong Xuan is only three years old, and includes a quick montage of adorable pictures of Kong Xuan at the end.
"Pfft." This time, Yuan Yi couldn't hold it in any longer. Holding his two apprentices, he laughed so hard he almost fell over. "I declare this to be the video that is closest to reality."
Although the comments under the video are all nonsense from the author, in reality, three years old and three months old are the closest.
Yuan Yi laughed until tears welled up in her eyes, then casually wiped them away.
This time, we've finally let go of the popular character Kong Xuan. What follows is a collection of beauties from Qingqiu and a short travelogue of the prehistoric world... most of which was written by a humble writer.
After all, Yuan Yi could still distinguish between the rough, early videos of the prehistoric era and the skillful production of 21st-century popular memes at a glance.
It's been so long since I've seen him. The little ginseng that used to be so clueless and only thought about spending money on in-game purchases has grown into this.
It would be a waste to just let him serve "Farm Battle" now. It's not impossible to link him with a new game, let him take on multiple roles and shine.
Yuan Yi's mind drifted back to the game, and he even forgot to play with his two little apprentices in his arms.
But in Da Peng's view, his master was completely captivated by Kong Xuan and had forgotten about his own unremarkable self.
Well, I am indeed not as good as my elder brother. He is intelligent and hardworking, so it is only natural that Master prefers my elder brother.
Although he was somewhat unwilling, the thought of competing with his senior brother meant he would have to be constantly by Kong Xuan's side, working tirelessly for cultivation, with no peace and quiet.
Thinking about it this way, being forgotten by the master and becoming invisible isn't such an unacceptable ending.
After all, he was too lazy to even make an expression. If it weren't for his master's occasional struggles and his brother's attempts to survive, he wouldn't even want to leave the house.
Never mind, let's leave it at that.
As soon as he made up his mind, Dapeng heard a soft hum. Before he could figure out where the sound came from, he heard Kong Xuan's startled cry:
"Shut up!" Dapeng was both embarrassed and annoyed. He was a clean and tidy bird; how could he wander around without washing up? Besides, they were born as immortals, so even if they never bathed, they wouldn't get dirty.
Therefore, do not spread rumors in front of your master that he is not clean.
"Wait, senior brother, why are you red?"
The brothers' commotion naturally alerted Yuan Yi, who looked down to take a look.
His two disciples, one with black hair and the other with red hair, upon closer inspection, one was exuding a demonic aura that was about to fade away, while the other's golden light of merit and righteous aura could no longer be concealed.
Yuan Yi's pupils dilated. She had only been lost in thought for a moment, and now one of her two little disciples in her arms had fallen into demonhood, while the other had ascended to immortality. Had it been the same as last time, that she had dozed off and another ten thousand years had passed?
Thankfully, it was just a false alarm.
Before long, the demonic energy that had been entangled around Dapeng dissipated, and he transformed back into a clean, well-behaved child with silver hair and golden eyes.
"I've already washed up," Dapeng explained to his master as soon as he was back to normal. Therefore, never believe Kong Xuan's nonsense.
"Hmm." Yuan Yi skillfully unraveled the demonic energy. "You just experienced a tribulation of inner demons, but fortunately your Dao heart is firm and you are not disturbed by inner demons at all."
Kong Xuan's eyes widened: "Inner demons? What inner demons? Little brother, you're only two months old, how could you have inner demons? Isn't it said that inner demons arise from unfulfilled obsessions and resentment? Little brother, what are your inner demons? Let's work together to resolve them..."
That's why he developed this obsession. Although he was too lazy to even maintain his obsession, he wasn't sure if the inner demons that had just ended would come back if he continued to be nagged like this.
Unable to bear the disturbance, Dapeng transformed into its original form and stood on Yuanyi's shoulder, with Kong Xuan following closely behind.
In the blink of an eye, the two little apprentices in his arms turned into two little birds on his shoulders.
"Kong Xuan, don't worry. The demonic energy on Dapeng has some connection with me. I have a way to prevent it from bothering Dapeng again in the future." Yuan Yi smiled but his eyes didn't reach his eyes. He decided to teach the culprit who caused the trouble a lesson.
"So, now let's see what happened to you, Kong Xuan?"
However, the peacock with its bright red tail feathers deftly dodged its master's grasp: "No, I'm fine as I am. The color of my feathers is exactly the same as my master's original color, so you can tell at a glance that we are master and disciple. Besides, the number one red peacock in the world is also very beautiful!"
Kong Xuan proudly spread his tail feathers, and the originally dazzling five-colored divine light turned into a sky full of red light, which indeed complemented the ginseng fruit tree behind him.
Yuan Yi touched her chin, so when she was lost in thought just now, not only her two disciples but also she changed color.
There were three disciples in the sect, and none of them were missing.
So what exactly happened while watching a live stream clip? Could it be that the color change of the live stream clip under the ginseng fruit tree is a hidden rule of the universe?
But she soon lost the energy to think deeply, because Kong Xuan said, "Moreover, after turning red, I developed a deeper connection with the ginseng fruit tree and became closer to my master."
“Brother, brother, what do you think about us building a nest on the ginseng fruit tree? It would be great to have a nest on Master’s body.”
Upon hearing this, Dapeng was quite tempted. Who could refuse to settle down with their master?
Only Yuan Yi's forehead veins throbbed. She was still connected to her original body. What was the difference between settling down in the tree and living on her body?
The phrase "her hair looks like a bird's nest" is just an adjective, not an indication that she actually wanted to have two bird nests on her head.
The two little birds were chirping away, already planning to pluck leaves from the big ginseng fruit tree next door.
Yuan Yi quickly stopped them: "Stop!"
*
When Qingluan arrived at Wuzhuang Temple after receiving the invitation, she saw Kong Xuan and Dapeng standing out from the crowd on the ginseng fruit tree that was red all over half the sky.
It can be described as: a vine hangs on the tree, two little birds dangle from the vine, the ginseng fruit tree does not bear fruit, but grows Kong Xuan and Dapeng.
Although they verbally claimed that these two little birds had no further connection with the Phoenix Clan, they were, after all, the children of Yuan Feng.
Seeing them hanging from the tree like birds that hadn't yet awakened their senses, Qingfeng was both angry and furious. Yuanyi was, after all, their master, so she could only patiently persuade them, "I don't know where Kongxuan and Dapeng have offended you, but they are still young and have only recently been born. I hope you will forgive them."
Yuan Yi, who was unjustly blamed, could only explain, "It was their own choice."
Not long ago, Kong Xuan and Da Peng, despite their master's attempts to intercept them, insisted on staying under the ginseng fruit tree and refused to leave, ignoring their master's instructions.
"...That's how it is, so I called a vine and told them to reflect on their actions while they were on the tree."
Upon hearing the cause and details of the incident, Qingluan was speechless with astonishment.
Only then did she realize that the vines were just loosely hanging on the two little birds. They had to use their claws and feathers to hold the vines in place so that they could swing on the wind.
However, this tree certainly made birds want to build their nests. Qingluan glanced at it, then quickly looked away; she couldn't let Fellow Daoist Yuanyi know about this thought.
"I misunderstood you, fellow Daoist." Qingluan immediately admitted her mistake and tried to atone for her sins. "I just don't know what important matter you have to discuss with me here today."
After removing the demonic energy and restoring the roc to its original state, Yuan Yi's primary task was to find out why Kong Xuan and the ginseng fruit tree had turned red and to see if a solution was needed.
Unlike the ominous demonic energy, this suddenly tinged red aura exuded righteousness, which Kong Xuan felt was neither beneficial nor harmful.
However, just to be on the safe side, Yuan Yi consulted Hongjun, whose avatar was lit up in the game.
The Dao Ancestor replied very quickly: "This is a good thing. If you don't understand, you can ask Yuan Feng."
Yuan Feng is the biological mother of Kong Xuan and Da Peng. She is currently suppressed in the Nanming Undying Volcano. Yuan Yi once met her in a dream.
Could this matter be related to the bloodline of the Phoenix Clan? The color of the phoenix in the dream was indeed somewhat similar to Kong Xuan's current color.
However, Yuan Feng was imprisoned in the Undying Volcano, and ordinary people could not visit him. Therefore, Yuan Yi had no choice but to settle for second best and found Qing Luan, the current patriarch of the Phoenix Clan.
"So that's how it is." Qingluan said thoughtfully, "I thought Kong Xuan was born looking like this, but it turns out he's followed the same path as Lord Yuanfeng."
At this point, Qingluan's expression also turned serious: "Does Fairy Yuanyi know the reason for the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity?"

Author's Note: Kong Xuan: I've changed color! I've become just like Master! I'm so happy! [starry eyes] Master's true form is so beautiful, I really want to build a nest on it. I don't want to hurt Master, so I'll go pick some leaves from my senior brother's tree. [starry eyes][starry eyes]
Yuan Yi: Don't touch my true form! [fear]
