"What's his name?"
"I forgot."
Feng Chu: "..."
The woman in the golden robe rubbed her forehead and sighed, "I'm getting old, and I can't remember many things. I tried so hard to recall, but no matter what I did, I couldn't remember what they looked like, I only remember..."
At this point, her voice turned cold. "Those two guys were both bastards, each one more hopeless than the last. I... I should have killed them. Did I kill them?"
As she finished speaking, her voice grew softer and softer, as if she were talking to herself.
Feng Chu still had the mindset of a child; he couldn't understand things like love, hate, and grudges. He could only sit silently to the side, thinking: Well, at least he knows the Sword of No Life is no longer here.
"The Sword of No Life, just how powerful is that sword?" Feng Chu couldn't help but ask.
He couldn't help but be curious about the three innate treasures, especially since it was just a sword.
"You already have the best magic weapon, why do you need other external things?" the woman in the golden robe said to Feng Chu.
Feng Chu knew that she was referring to his natal sword.
She was an Immortal Emperor, so naturally she could see the innate sword seed within him; there was nothing strange about that.
“But I still haven’t been able to awaken it,” Feng Chu said.
“Since I have nothing better to do anyway, I might as well help you!” said the woman in the golden robe.
Feng Chu thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay!"

Inside the Black Nest.
Ayao didn't know how she got to this space. In this space grew a silver tree, which was thousands of feet tall. Its silver leaves looked very beautiful. Below the tree was a boundless lake, which reflected the brilliant stars in the universe.
The Lord of Black Nest sat by the lake, gazing at the stars reflected in the cosmic lake.
Ayao walked towards him and sat down next to him. She hadn't seen him for two months since their last conversation; he had been deliberately avoiding her. Now that he saw she hadn't left, Ayao wondered if he was no longer angry.
Looking at his face, which was exactly like Xu Fengzhi's, and then at his long, smooth purple hair, Ayao really wanted to reach out and touch it, and she did. She reached out to stroke his hair, but he slapped her hand away as if he had been electrocuted.
What are you doing?
Ayao blinked: "Can't I touch it?"
Her innocent appearance irritated the Lord of the Black Nest, and a surge of anger rose within him. He said coldly, "I am not him."
“I know,” Ayao said.
“You say that, but that’s not what you really think,” said the Lord of the Black Nest.
Ayao gritted her teeth, deciding to change the subject. She looked at the man in front of her and said, "Tell me about Lou Munan!"
Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle. She knew absolutely nothing about Lou Munan. When Xu Fengzhi met her, he didn't even know he was Lou Munan's alter ego. When he reappeared later, it was already their farewell, and he didn't have time to tell her about Lou Munan.
Mie Xinluo refused to speak to her. Before, she didn't understand why he ignored her, but now she roughly guessed. He was probably like the Lord of the Black Nest, afraid of being influenced by Xu Fengzhi and falling in love with her.
She had always wanted to know about Lou Munan's past, and now that she had the time, since she couldn't leave anyway, she might as well take this opportunity to get some information about Lou Munan's past from the Black Nest Lord, which might come in handy.
"Lou Munan?"
“Yes, is he a born bad seed? I want to know his past in order to defeat him,” Ayao said earnestly.
The Lord of the Black Nest looked at her for a long time before saying, "My memories are incomplete. The memories the main soul gave us are not complete, and he may have even modified some of them."
“It’s okay, just tell me what you know,” Ayao said.
"That happened 4.8 trillion years ago. In the Spirit Realm at that time, there was a family called the Lishan Lou Clan. The Lou Clan once produced an Immortal Emperor. Although that Immortal Emperor had long since perished and the Lou Clan's strength was not what it used to be, it was still a first-class family that ranked among the top in the Xiangzhou of the Spirit Realm. The ancestor of the Lou Clan was the Immortal King Lou Quan."
The Lord of Black Nest gazed into the void and began to speak:
"Lou Quan has a son named Lou Huan. Lou Huan married Nan Ya, the daughter of the sect leader of Hetang Mountain, and they had an eldest daughter named Lou Xinyue. Lou Xinyue inherited her mother's beauty and her father's talent. Before she was even ten thousand years old, she had already cultivated into a celestial being and became famous throughout the spirit world for her beauty. She was known as the number one beauty in the spirit world, and countless people admired her. However, Lou Xinyue was single-minded in pursuing the Dao and did not care about love."
With a wave of his hand, the Lord of the Black Nest caused the surrounding scenery to change.
Ayao saw countless falling flowers dancing in the air, and then she saw towering immortal cities appear before her eyes. Clouds and mist swirled around them, and countless sacred mountains and immortal peaks floated above the sea of mist. Jade palaces and pavilions radiated brilliant light, and the scenery was layered and breathtaking.
Ayao found herself standing high in the sky with the Lord of the Black Nest. The scenery in the distance was rapidly approaching her. Then she arrived at a palace with a courtyard. There she saw Lou Xinyue, the most beautiful woman in the Spirit Realm back then.
She wore a white gauze dress, her long, black hair casually tied with a gold ribbon. She wore no makeup, yet her features were exquisitely beautiful, her skin as white as snow, her complexion as delicate as a flower, her beauty unparalleled, and her charm breathtaking. Especially captivating were her golden eyes; when she gazed at you with those eyes, you would be unconsciously drawn to her gentle and graceful demeanor.
Ayao has seen many stunning beauties, and she herself is also a stunning beauty, but when she looked at Lou Xinyue at this moment, she couldn't help but show amazement in her eyes, thinking: What a beautiful woman!
Ayao watched Lou Xinyue practice her sword under the flowering tree. Her sword dance was graceful and otherworldly, pure and refined. But her swordsmanship was by no means empty talk. Her sword was elegant and sharp, just like her, seemingly gentle but actually hiding her sharp edge.
"When Lou Xinyue was 15,000 years old, her younger brother Lou Munan was born."
After the Lord of the Black Nest finished speaking, the surrounding scenery changed again.
Ayao saw Lou Xinyue holding a baby. The baby was exceptionally beautiful, like a porcelain doll. She had never seen such a pretty baby before. The baby had chubby little hands and a round face so tender that one couldn't help but want to kiss it. The baby's bright, light golden eyes were like clear gems, and the baby's petal-like mouth made tender, childlike sounds that melted one's heart.
This...this is Lou Munan?
Lou Munan as an infant?
Ayao stared at the baby, waving his chubby little hands, smiling innocently as his sister held him. Was the wicked and heinous Demon Lord Xuantian also innocent when he was born?
"Dad, Mom, look how cute Xiao Nan is!" Lou Xinyue couldn't help but kiss her little brother. The baby giggled even more happily after being kissed.
Lou Huan and Nan Ya, this Daoist couple, adored their children. Looking at their daughter holding their infant son, the couple's smiles were incredibly tender. However, they were also a little worried when they thought about their son's talent.
