"This...." Feng Xing's eyes opened wide, he was shocked... he couldn't believe what he currently was seeing...

"Hmm? Dio are you serious? It's just a brat..." Luo Ai transmitted her message to Dio, she seemed to be clearly disappointed, and her heart rate immediately went to normal once again.

Some people just teleported inside the Sect... and clearly nobody probably noticed, this would mean that the person was atleast in the Holy Realm or had an incredible Skill for disguising one's self. If normal people saw this, that's what they all might of have thought. Feng Xing thought differently though, he obviously knew these two... but he was still way to shocked to react...

"Ehh... now I'm not sure anymore.. although his soul is clearly.. his, but this boy doesn't even look like him and his... cultivation base is way to low." Dio transmitted back.

The two were currently transmitting to each other, but Feng Xing couldn't hear it... Feng Xing was still shocked and stared blankly at the scene in front of him. Never in his life would he have ever thought of meeting someone he knew this fast...

The two seemed to have decided that this boy wasn't him, and currently were thinking of disposing him or just letting him go. Luo Ai looked at Feng Xing coldly with her beautiful starry eyes and asked : "Brat, what's your name?"

She decided to still ask him name, and hopefully find out why he had the same or a similar soul to someone she knew. After hearing the girl's spoken words, He immediately snapped out of it and slowly a tear fell out his eye.

"Hmm? Scared little boy?" Dio teasingly asked, he seemed to not even have a care for the world currently. He also only wanted to know the reason why Feng Xing's soul was like that.

After a good while Feng Xing spoke.

"...Y-you.... w-what are you doing here?..." Feng Xing asked while having an expression of pure shock and hapiness. He couldn't suppress his current emotions and facial expression. One of the girls he cherished and thought he would never see again or until many years later, once again appeared in front of his eyes...

"I'm currently the one stating the questions. Tell me fast or else..." Luo Ai seemed to be a bit confused about his attitude, but still continued to force an answer out of him. Although she found it weird for him to currently cry and even seem happy, she was not softhearted for such kind of things. She continued to stare coldly at him.

Feng Xing simply smiled, and calmed his emotions down and seemed to ponder about something. Luo Ai was getting slightly ticked off by his smile, but somehow his smile felt a bit familiar. Where did she see this kind of smile once again? She had forgotten... but Dio had not!

Dio suddenly transmitted something over to Luo Ai, and she suddenly stared deeply at Feng Xing. Trying to figure something out...

Feng Xing suddenly spoke : "My name is Feng Xing...". Those words were spoken without any fear.

Luo Ai and Dio seemed to be a bit surprised.. he suddenly spoke and it seemed to even be without any fear, but Feng Xing didn't stop talking, he continued with a quiet voice after.

"That name... is only valid for this lifetime.. though."

Luo Ai and Dio seemed to be shocked after hearing the last phrase. Dying means it's over... but then suddenly Luo Ai and Dio thought of a possibility,although they unconsciously hoped for it, but also denied it since it was impossible... or was it possible? Was it truely the one they once were indebted to? The one they unfortunately couldn't help... when he needed it the most? Was it truely him!?

Feng Xing's smile currently wasn't fake anymore, it became even brighter. Feng Xing truely was happy for this reunion between them.

"Don't you recognize me anymore? Little Ai and Little Dio..." Feng Xing spoke while slowly a tear dripped out his eyes.

Silence remained for a good while after those words were spoken out, tears flew out of Luo Ai and Dio. Only one person had ever called them that.. they couldn't believe it. Never in their dreams would they ever have thought of seeing him once again after returning to the Realm of Mortals...

Dio was once a Martial Path Beast that was picked up by Feng Xing, when Feng Xing was still in his younger days. Dio always accompanied Feng Xing and his adventures. Dio even gained the ability to speak when he managed to reach he Holy Realm, becoming a Holy Beast. That moment Feng Xing and Dio made a Friendship Pact, no longer would Dio call him Master, but he would call him by Feng Xing's personal name "Jiang Hao" and Feng Xing would call. Years after, Feng Xing would secretly take him to the world above... the Realm of Gods.

There Dio also managed to reach the Dao Realm, finally having a true sole solid dao foundation, but it wasn't him who experienced the most. Dio witnessed something incredible, and something he would never forget. Feng Xing who was once still a rookie at the 1st rank of the Ascension Realm, slowly reached even higher heights, battling countless of times, making quite a bit of comrades and enemies... in the end he finally became one who stood at the top of the whole Realm! By that point his name was not Jiang Hao anymore...

His name Jiang Hao was already unrecognizable for most...

Most people in the Realm of Gods knew his title... and they all called him the Ancient Ruler. Jiang Hao received such a title because, they all knew that he would stay a Ruler for a very very long time...

But what nobody expected, was that he actually got struck down! Not by normal means, he actually got betrayed by some! In Feng Xing's last moment's... he said something to Dio...

The supposed to be last request... : "Dio..., after I'm gone... please...protect Ai. She... must be protected at all costs..."

Dio obviously didn't refuse that request... after Feng Xing died, he immediately went and made Luo Ai his master. He would try his best to protect her, but unfortunately he wasn't even in the Ascension realm yet... being only at the 6th rank of the Dao Realm. He could only try his best to do atleast something for her, that's what he decided in this life. Currently he is at the 8th rank of the Dao Realm, being stronger than the current Luo Ai by a huge amount. His chance to protect her finally came, if she ever had any problems.

But Dio would of have never thought of meeting Jiang Hao once again...

Luo Ai also thought that she would never be able to see him again...

She was someone who was heavily indebted to Feng Xing... but what she didn't realize was that Feng Xing actually was indebted to her! Feng Xing's Dao Path became much smoother after meeting Luo Ai, one who he fell in love with and gave him alot of support through his hard moments. Unfortunately Luo Ai stayed at the 1st Rank of the Ascension Realm, so she was being threatened everywhere because of her beauty. Feng Xing decided to make Luo Ai much stronger, so she would be able to become a true strong independent cultivator that didn't need his protection anymore. Luo Ai would already have been death if not for the support of Feng Xing.

Feng Xing saved her countless of times and even had to risk his own life to do it. Those moments pained Luo Ai's heart, so she decided to become much stronger to stand beside him, and help him if he ever needed it. The years slowly passed by without much problems and she managed to reach the 4th Rank of the Ascension Realm. Slowly she was becoming much stronger, and reaching her goal. But it was still far from enough. In the end, before she even reached that goal Feng Xing had already been betrayed and killed by people she and Feng Xing trusted. The ambush they set for him on that day was terrifying... she never wants to remember that ever again. How heartless and cruel her former comrades became...

Now they all reunited with each other...

The silence was still there, Luo Ai and Dio just stared, while Feng Xing simply smiled.

Just as Feng Xing wanted to speak, someone knocked on the door. Feng Xing gave Luo Ai and Dio a meaningful look, and turned around and said : "Who is it?"

Following after the look he gave towards Luo Ai and Dio, they immediately cloaked themselves invisible. Nobody would be able to detect them, even the current Sect Master and Feng Xing wouldn't be able to.

"It's me."

Feng Xing immediately recognized the voice behind the door, it was Xiao Ling.

"Alright, you can come in." Feng Xing already expected her to come, but not this soon. He thought that she would come for a new lesson after she mastered it, but it seems to be that she either mastered it or just came for something entirely else.

The door opened and Xiao Ling dressed in the Black Gods Sect attire casually walked inside, and sat down across Feng Xing. She first stared at Feng Xing, noticing that he was currently a bit different looking. His smile currently was a bit more genuine.

This was true, Feng Xing actually was really happy. Xiao Ling didn't really mind that smile though and pulled out a space bag.

"Today, the Sect distributed the Black Gods Sect attire, and a space bag to every disciple. I brought yours, since I still had to come here for a different reason anyways." Xiao Ling explained, and gave a space bag to Feng Xing which only contained the Black Gods Sect attire.

"Hmm, I appreciate it. Thanks, but you came here because you wanted to ask something right?" Feng Xing also wanted to teach her mind transmission, so she could atleast inform him directly in his mind and not call him out in the open, since she attracts alot of attention usually.

"That's right... I actually already mastered the first lesson, look." Xiao Ling slowly reached out her hand, and True Energy slowly condensed at the palm of her hand. Slowly a ball was being created. Feng Xing already prepared himself, but was still inwardly shocked at the learning speed...

"Impressive... indeed." Feng Xing praised. Xiao Ling after hearing that immediately retracted all the energy, and asked : "Can we continue, since I already mastered this."

"Hmm sure, but before that. You need to learn mind transmission first." Feng Xing stated.

Xiao Ling after hearing that, only had a blank expression on her face.

"Oh, that... I had already learned that." She blankly said.

Feng Xing was still smiling, but his face twitched just a little...

"Why... did you not directly transmit messages to me..."

"Didn't want to." Her answer was simple and blunt. It seems to be that she intentionally called him out, hoping for him to be troubled. Was it because she saw him and Rou Xue together?

"Sigh... well alright then, I won't ask any further but don't casually call me out unless there aren't many people, ok?"

"Why?" She asked. Feng Xing's smile disappeared and a blank expression was left on his face. Did she truly not understand that she attracts alot of attention? Completely oblivious of her own beauty? Feng Xing once more checked Xiao Ling's appearance.

Soft shiny black hair. Beautiful skin, body proportions and a face that could truely seduce ever man below the heavens... if only she didn't have that cold expression on her face most of the time. In a few years she could even match Luo Ai... who was also a beauty that gave others a cold feeling when being stared at.

As Feng Xing was looking, Xiao Ling noticed this and seemed to become slightly red, but her face remained cold and indifferent.

"Ahem?" Xiao Ling coughed.

Feng Xing after hearing that retracted his gaze. It seems to be that even he kept staring to much...

Suddenly a snort resounded out of nowhere...

"Hmm!? What was that?" Xiao Ling was immediately alerted and stood up. She immediately checked every corner of the room, she clearly heard someone snorting, but she couldn't sense anyone.

Feng Xing's smile remained on his face and he was still sitting down, as if he had not heard anything at all.

"...Jealousy, is truely something that can even shaken up the deepest parts of a person." He obviously knew that the one who just snorted was Luo Ai, who was still somewhere in the room watching the two...

Suddenly a voice resounded in his head...

"So... Jiang Hao, I see that you have been living a pretty comfortable life... and who is that girl? You two seem to be on good terms with each other... and you're even teaching her... I expect an explanation after this." Her voice contained a bit of anger and annoyance.

"Sigh..." Feng Xing immediately also stood up and said : "Xiao Ling, what's wrong?"

He stared at her innocently, as if he had not heard anything at all.

"Did you not hear anything?" She looked weirdly at Feng Xing.
