Exiting from the Teleportation Array in Xibai City, two Transmitting Disciples looked at Xu Feng strangely. One of them said, "You are from Liuxiang Kingdom, right? I heard something big happened there ten years ago. Do you have any news? I'd like to hear it."
Xu Feng did not understand their intention and replied, "When the incident in Liuxiang Kingdom occurred, I was in seclusion, so I'm not very clear about the specifics. I heard there was a fight, and many people died."
The other person then asked, "Who exactly died? Do you know who killed whom?"
Xu Feng responded, "The ones who died were all cultivators; it was cultivators killing cultivators. Ordinary people wouldn't have the ability to kill." Xu Feng was being evasive, providing little information.
The other disciple tugged at his companion and said, "Stop asking. He seems honest enough; how would he know any insider information? You think rewards come that easily? Just focus on your work."
Xu Feng asked, "What reward?"
The first person replied, "You don’t even know what the reward is? No wonder. It's fine, it's fine. Where are you going? Do you need to teleport again?"
"I'm going to Longmen Town." He handed over the teleportation fee for five people. "I'm in a hurry."
The two Transmitting Disciples were happy for an easy job and quickly teleported Xu Feng away.
In this way, at each location, Xu Feng used the teleportation fee for five people to turn slow transport into direct routes. In no time at all, he returned to Daming Lake in Sanyang Town.
On a street in Minghu City, people came and went, and vehicles flowed continuously, with the sounds of vendors calling out their wares echoing through the air.
This area was the Mortal Zone of Minghu City, where many vendors conducted business. Given Minghu City's prosperity, this location was as bustling as the capital city beneath one's feet.
At that moment, a pair of men and women walked out of a restaurant. The man had a restrained aura and was handsome and tall; it was clear he was someone from the Xian Dao. The girl was only seven or eight years old, wearing a short-sleeved robe and holding a skewer of candied hawthorn berries, occasionally popping one into her mouth. Two Nascent Soul Period Cultivators followed closely behind them, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings.
The man held the girl's hand and said as they walked, "Chuchu, even though you're only eight years old, you're already at Refining Qi Level Ten. You'll soon establish your foundation and become someone from the Xian Dao. You should eat less of these mundane things in the future."
The girl pouted and replied, "Fourth Brother, ordinary people are still people! I don't want to cultivate; I want to be an ordinary person! I can eat candied hawthorn berries without practicing cultivation and enjoy so many fun things to see and eat! I don't want to be some Xian Dao person!"
This pair was none other than Shen Qian and Xu Ruchu, both severely injured.
After Shen Qian's serious injury, his strength could no longer advance. He withdrew from the competition for sect leader and handed over his business to Second Brother Shen Gong while taking Xu Ruchu around to enjoy a leisurely life as ordinary people.
Xu Ruchu was killed by Silverbeard with a single strike. Farmland used Arctic Chicken Blood to repair Xu Ruchu's Yuan Ying. Eight years ago, the Xu family found a suitable pregnant woman from hundreds of families for Xu Ruchu's reincarnation, paying a hefty sum to buy her out and take over her body. Now, Xu Ruchu is already eight years old.
After her reincarnation, Xu Ruchu still could not remember her past life, only vaguely recalling her beloved Shen Qian. Therefore, the Xu family sent Xu Ruchu to the Pingdao Sect, where Shen Qian would raise her in hopes that his words and actions would help Xu Ruchu regain her memories.
Shen Qian felt deeply indebted to Xu Ruchu. Since she arrived at the Shen Family, he took on the role of an exceptional father, caring for Xu Ruchu comfortably.
However, over the past eight years, Xu Ruchu only remembered her father, Xu Mo; she did not recognize anyone else.
Today is the day for Xu Ruchu to return home. She has to go back once every half month.
The two strolled through the streets, with Xu Ruchu continuously buying various toys and snacks. After all, she is an eight-year-old child with a strong sense of innocence. Fortunately, with her Spiritual Root and after undergoing careful medicinal baths from the Xu family, she is in excellent health; otherwise, eating so much would surely make her sick.
Around noon, Xu Ruchu was brought back to the entrance of the Xu family home.
Xu Feng happened to be preparing to enter as well and spotted Shen Qian. "Shen Gongzi, what a coincidence."
Shen Qian had already heard that Xu Feng had advanced to the Divine Separation Stage. Seeing him made him uneasy, so he quickly said, "Xu Feng, congratulations on your significant progress in cultivation." Knowing that Xu Feng disliked being called 'senior' by acquaintances, he addressed him as an equal.
The guards of the Xu family noticed Xu Feng's return and came over to greet him. They had seen how rapidly his strength had grown and naturally wanted to get closer to him in hopes of gaining his favor.
Seeing that Xu Ruchu looked somewhat familiar, Xu Feng asked, "Shen Gongzi, who is this?"
Shen Qian felt a pang in his heart and lowered his head. "Chuchu, this is your former head guard; you can call him Uncle Xu."
"Big sister?" Xu Feng was taken aback; no wonder she looked familiar—she was his big sister reincarnated.
Xu Ruchu stared wide-eyed in silence, continuously looking at Xu Feng.
Suddenly, she said, "I know you; your name is Xu Feng. I even gave you a piece of clothing."
Shen Qian was puzzled. "Chuchu, you know Xu Feng? You really recognize him?" Given that Xu Ruchu didn't even remember her mother now, it was surprising that she recalled Xu Feng.
Xu Feng knew about her Mind Armor; he was aware that after waking up, Xu Ruchu had lost her memory. Hearing this made him take out the Mind Armor from his belongings and hand it to Xu Ruchu. "Feel it; is this the piece of clothing?"
Xu Ruchu held the Mind Armor, her hands moving back and forth over it.
Xu Feng reminded her, "This is made from Xuan Tie Mu. You even gave it a name; what did you call it?"
Xu Ruchu remained silent, her lips trembling slightly. Shen Qian noticed the unusual color on her face and quickly crouched down, encouragingly looking at Xu Ruchu.
Xu Feng continued, "Your armor is called Mind Armor, a name you personally chose. But I don't understand why you named it that. What does Mind Armor mean? Whose heart are you trying to keep? Can you tell me, sister?"
Xu Ruchu hugged the Mind Armor tightly, slowly squatting down to the ground, burying her face deep into the armor. Her body shook as she began to cry.
"Chuchu, Chuchu, don't cry. I'm here; I've always been by your side," Shen Qian said as he tried to lift her up.
Suddenly, Xu Ruchu stood up and threw the Mind Armor at Shen Qian. Her face was tear-streaked, crying uncontrollably as she shouted, "Why don’t you want it? Why? I put so much effort into making this Mind Armor for you, yet you don’t even look at it! You bastard! Why are you still standing in front of me? Why don’t you just die? Go die already!"
The more Xu Ruchu cried, the more sadness she expressed, raising her fists and hitting Shen Qian.
Shen Qian had already understood what was happening and tears streamed down his face. He let Xu Ruchu hit and kick him while kneeling in front of her, holding her tightly in his arms.
At that moment, the Xu Family Guard also realized what was happening and hurriedly ran toward the inner courtyard, shouting as they went, "Master! The eldest sister has woken up! The eldest sister has regained her memory!"
Under Xu Feng's gentle guidance, Xu Ruchu miraculously regained her memory, ending an eight-year-long period of being an idiot.
Before long, a large group of people flew out from the Xu family residence, led by the head of the family, Xu Mo, and Xu Duo Chou.
After a bout of intense crying, Xu Ruchu collapsed in Shen Qian's arms. Seeing Xu Mo come out, he handed Xu Ruchu over to him and said, "Master, Chuchu just regained her memory but got too emotional and fainted again."
Xu Mo held his precious daughter in his arms with deep emotion. He had managed to save her life but could not preserve her memories; what difference was there between this and losing her altogether? Thank you; finally someone had the foresight to help her regain her memory.
Shen Qian added, "Master, Chuchu's recovery this time was entirely due to Xu Feng's guidance."
Only then did Xu Mo notice Xu Feng standing aside.
Xu Feng quickly bowed and said, "Xu Feng pays respects to the master. The eldest sister is fortunate; I merely happened to assist."
Xu Feng handed the Mind Armor to Shen Qian and said, "Young Master Shen, my sister has deep feelings for you; you cannot let her down again."
Shen Qian tightly hugged the Mind Armor to his chest and cried, "I know. Thank you, Xu Feng, thank you."
The crowd sighed in sympathy. Xu Ruchu, having lived two lives, would greatly benefit from recovering her memories for her future cultivation. The Xu family was likely to produce another talent in the next hundred years.
Xu Mo handed Xu Ruchu over to Xu Rushan and said, "Take As Before back to rest. Xu Feng, come with me."
Xu Duo Chou, Xu Mo, and Xu Feng returned to the Elder Council's secret chamber.
Xu Duo Chou said, "Xu Feng, first of all, congratulations on advancing to the Mid Stage of Spirit Separation. In just ten years, you've improved a level; even disciples with a Single Spiritual Root can only achieve that much." He had no idea that Xu Feng had spent a full hundred years soaking in A Qi's spiritual spring.
Xu Feng replied, "Elder, you flatter me. My progress is thanks to your support and that of the family head."
Xu Feng's speed of advancement greatly exceeded the Xu family's expectations. Considering Xu Feng's battle with Silverbeard, Xu Duo Chou couldn't feel happy; his own realm was on par with Silverbeard's, and he truly didn't believe that Xu Feng could defeat him.
Advancing a level in ten years was extremely rare in Xian Dao. If he could advance another level in the next ten years, it would be truly extraordinary.
Xu Feng said, "In ten years, I will take Silverbeard's life to avenge my sister. However, from what I understand, Silverbeard doesn't take this seriously at all; Wuwei Academy isn't paying attention either."
Xu Mo replied, "Of course Wuwei Academy won't care; no one believes you will actually challenge Silverbeard."
Xu Feng stated, "I want to set the time and place and formally issue a challenge to Silverbeard."
Xu Mo asked, "Are you sure you want to do this? You have deep feelings for the Xu family; I understand that. You are not Silverbeard's opponent right now; there's no need to rush."
Xu Feng assured him, "Please rest assured, family head; I have my own plans." With Xu Feng's current strength, he was no longer afraid of facing Silverbeard.
Seeing Xu Feng so confident, Xu Mo said, "Since you are determined, I will help you spread the word. We will challenge Silverbeard in the name of our Xu family. In such a formal duel, Wuwei Academy has no reason to make things difficult for us. If Silverbeard dies in battle, they will have nothing to say." If Xu Feng were to die in battle, it would be his own doing.
Xu Duo Chou added, "In these ten years, focus on your training. Wuwei Academy is overwhelmed with issues; Silverbeard's strength won't change much."
Xu Feng asked, "Wuwei Academy is very busy?"
Xu Duo Chou said, "Ten years ago when you returned to Liuxiang Kingdom, you naturally know the outcome of that battle better than I do. Wuwei Academy lost a Great Perfection Stage Qianlongzi, and the person who killed him has still not been found."
"Wuwei Academy has been searching for that murderer?"
"They have no choice but to search," Xu Mo replied. "Because that murderer appeared again five years ago. This time, Wuwei Academy was prepared in advance, and the murderer did not succeed, but they severely injured Qingyuanzai, reducing his combat power to Divine Separation Stage."
Qingyuanzai is also one of the 'Six Sons.'
Xu Feng suddenly realized, "Is it true that Wuwei Academy offered some rewards to find the murderer?"
Xu Duo Chou confirmed, "This has been happening for the past three years. Now many forces in Zheguo are helping Wuwei Academy find the murderer."
Xu Feng asked, "What kind of reward is being offered?"
"A Low-Grade Dao Artifact!"
