Yan Guanshan was still floating to the side, but his figure was slightly fainter, as the sharing of consciousness had taken a toll on him.
He said, "It took me decades to collect everything I needed."
But when I returned to Huaixiangye Town to carry out my plan, I suddenly discovered that the small village had become a town, and the wild beasts that were once unstoppable had been driven up the mountain and dared not come down.
They had offspring, who were also 'powerless,' but no longer without the ability to protect themselves.
"At that time, I hesitated. If I were to forcibly change the cause and effect in their lives, although it would allow them to regain their abilities, it would also completely disrupt their rhythm of life and break their existing peace. That might not be a good thing."
"But I'm still not willing to give up, and I want to try."
"So, I guess it possessed a few children with good aptitude to test it out first."
Chang Le looked at him and said, "I didn't realize it at the time, but now that I think about it, those children all seem to be drawn to the fire element. You divided your [Phoenix Fire] to shape them."
"Yes, I'm very familiar with my own abilities, and I control them the best, with a higher success rate. But..."
Yan Guanshan gazed at the yellow sand, his expression weathered: "I still haven't succeeded."
A powerless body and supernatural abilities are like water and fire, mutually repelling each other. No matter how close a body is to the elements, it cannot truly integrate those energies. I was afraid of hurting the children, so I didn't continue.
But you arrived in town shortly after we stopped.
"I recognized you the moment I saw you on the mountain that day."
Yan Guanshan's eyes still showed shock: "I never thought that after nearly ninety years since we parted ways in Chaohai City, we would meet again."
But because the look in your eyes was still unfamiliar after I identified myself, I guessed you probably didn't remember me.
"At first, I thought it was because you were young and didn't remember me since it was our first meeting. But after we talked, I found that not only did you not remember me, you didn't mention a word about Shen Fuguang or anything related to him!"
"That's when I realized you had a problem with your memory!"
"So in the end, I deliberately said that line, that we had met before, trying to remind you of something."
After Yan Guanshan finished speaking, the two remained silent for a long time.
He floated over and asked, "May I ask, where did you go after we parted ways in Chaohai City? Weren't you with Shen Fuguang?"
Chang Le frowned and shook his head: "I have no memory of it."
Not only from the Chaohai City incident to more than a decade ago, but also in the decades in between, her memory is a blank.
Even going back more than three hundred years from Chaohai City, her memory remains a blank.
Fortunately, Chang Le did not feel anxious or distressed.
It's nothing more than the two remaining seals in the brain.
However... the layers upon layers of mystery left Chang Le feeling exhausted.
Yan Guanshan sighed and said nothing more.
At that moment, a strange sound came from the Milky Way on Earth. Looking over, the rushing Milky Way suddenly stopped completely, and the waves it stirred up remained still in the air.
Ten seconds later, the still Milky Way suddenly seemed to be reversed, with waves scattering backward and the river flowing again in the completely opposite direction.
At the same time, the Milky Way, which was tilting down in the sky, began to show a "waterspout" phenomenon, with the Milky Way flowing backwards and straight into the sky. The star map looked like burnt-out charcoal, and its light gradually dimmed.
Soon, the entire Kyushu Shrine was plunged into even greater darkness.
This is the second time Chang Le has experienced a shift between light and shadow since he came in.
This means that a full 120 hours have passed since she came in, and five days have passed outside.
Chang Le stood up: "Take good care of yourself, I'll come see you again later."
Yan Guanshan drifted back.
Chang Le walked through the yellow sand, out of the bronze archway, looked back at the tombstone one last time, and left the Dragon Tomb.
November 22nd, early morning.
The sky was beginning to lighten, but days of heavy snow had left the clouds heavy and gloomy, obscuring the dawn. The pale light blended with the gray-white clouds, creating an uneven, inky hue.
When Chang Le returned to the withered banyan tree wrapped in a cloak, Chen Wusui was sitting cross-legged under the tree, closing his eyes to regulate his breathing, the snow on his body still unmelted.
Chang Le's crunching footsteps on the snow startled Chen Wusui, who was meditating.
Chen Wusui stood up, shook off the snow covering his body, and the remaining snowflakes melted away.
With a flick of her sleeve, Chang Le drew out the melted snow water from Chen Wusui's body, which condensed into small water droplets that floated in front of her.
Chen Wusui exclaimed in surprise, "This is a water-based ability? Last time it was lightning, the time before that it was fusion, and this time it's water again. Young Master always manages to surprise us."
Chang Le waved away the water droplets: "It was a chance fusion, and this ability is still very weak."
This is the [Water Droplet] ability of that [Black Shadow] variant. Because it only fused with a small amount of power at the time, Chang Le could only exert a very small amount of power with this ability, so it was not often used.
Chang Le turned his head and patted the water's surface. A cat's head approached the surface, blinked, and then disappeared back into the water.
After saying goodbye to the cat, the two walked side by side out of the forest.
"Old Dust".
Upon hearing this familiar address, Chen Wusui subconsciously responded, "Yes."
"I remember you were the last of the four of you to follow Fu Guang?"
Chen Wusui nodded: "Yes."
I remember Old Mu mentioning to you that among us, Ghost Blade, Bloodless, and Luo Xuan have been with Fu Guang for a long time. Their actual ages are probably not much different from Fu Guang's.”
Chang Le asked in surprise, "Luo Xuan too?"
"Huh? You don't know?" Chen Wusui said.
