MD Ch3 Part 2

Whether fifteen minutes had passed or not, the opposing side had completely dispersed.

As Ah Jiu approached, inviting me to mount him, I glanced around. Looking at Jiang Gui and Wang Duoju, who was wearing a foolish grin, I asked,

“Domain Lords, do you believe this Lord was right or wrong to let them go?”

“If the Lord has done so, there must be a reason.”

To my surprise, the first to respond wasn’t Wang Duoju, but someone who had been silent and expressionless the entire time. He had such an ordinary appearance that he would be completely inconspicuous in a crowd. His expression was equally bland. In fact, if he hadn’t spoken, I wouldn’t have even realized he was a Domain Lord.

He was riding a white gull, clad in a wave-patterned robe amidst the extravagant procession. After a moment’s thought, I recalled that he was Yao Zi, the Domain Lord of the Illusionary Sea Domain.

There were only a few sentences mentioning this Domain Lord in the novel. – I liked the dish Braised Kidney Beans – hence the name Yao Zi. The pronunciation was a bit odd, but I thought it sounded quite refined. The limited mention meant I knew very little about him. But why did he answer me so loyally now?

Following his lead, the others chimed in, expressing their agreement and showering me with praise for my brilliant tactics. I looked into Yao Zi’s eyes, expecting further commentary, but he surprisingly stopped flattering me, blending back into the crowd and falling silent.

I had overdone it.

After briefly acknowledging their compliments, I indicated to Jiang Gui and Wang Duoju that they should stay at the Demon Palace. As expected, the astute Wang Duoju expressed his desire to remain by my side, flashing an obsequious smile that made me cringe.

However, Jiang Gui seemed peculiar. Despite his corpse-like appearance, there was a faint spark of life in his eyes, and he didn’t object to my request. He seemed more surprised by the generous treatment.

If he had ulterior motives, he wouldn’t appear so indifferent, but that’s how he seemed now. Judging by his expression, he was thinking, ‘Wow, the Lord actually thinks so highly of me!’ I decided to send the remaining Domain Lords away and ask Wang Duoju about Jiang Gui later.

It felt like a long time had passed, but in reality, everything had unfolded in less than an hour, and not much time had elapsed since Song Qiyuan’s fall.

Wait a minute. Not much time had passed?

What nonsense! An ordinary person would stop breathing four to six minutes after falling into the water!

If CPR wasn’t administered in time, they would die!

After instructing Gu Jincheng to attend to Jiang Gui and Wang Duoju, I sat on Ah Jiu’s back, feigning composure as we circled the boundary of the Heavenly River. In reality, I was frantically heading towards the spot where, in my memories, the veiled Master had rescued Song Qiyuan.

I chanted inwardly, ‘This is the cultivation world. This is the cultivation world. This is the cultivation world…’ My eyes scanned the area below. Soon, I spotted Song Qiyuan lying prone in the grass between the Heavenly River and the forest.

The storyline of 《Heavenly Demon Tribulation》 generously bestowed overpowered abilities upon Song Qiyuan. Even when falling into the Heavenly River, he survived through sheer luck. The deep waters and strong currents couldn’t overcome him, and they even graciously deposited him on this secluded riverbank.

Come to think of it, the part where Song Qiyuan’s Master found him was omitted in the novel. The story immediately jumped to Song Qiyuan recovering from his injuries and realizing his own resilience. Now, all that remained was for the veiled Master to arrive and take Song Qiyuan away.

I decided to check on Song Qiyuan first, then secretly wait in hiding. If I was lucky, I could discreetly pass the Reincarnation Fruit to his Master.

To unburden my conscience, I was willing to try anything. If this world had its own laws of operation, I would break them to avoid misfortune.

“Ah Jiu, set me down a short distance away from that child. The quieter we are, the better.”

“Understood.”

Perhaps it was my imagination, but Ah Jiu’s reply sounded like a snort. I stroked the feathers on his head, trying to appease him.

We stopped about 60 zhang away from Song Qiyuan, and the now smaller Ah Jiu perched on my shoulder. I initially planned to walk over, but a problem suddenly occurred to me. Although Song Qiyuan was blind, his hearing and sense of smell were intact. His other senses were heightened, so a hasty approach might cause unnecessary complications.

After subtly altering the surrounding air with a spell to signal Ah Jiu to remain silent, I cautiously approached the spot where the boy lay.

With only 20 chi remaining between us, the unexpected happened.

He moved.

The child was moving! How?!

After falling from such a height and spending who knows how long in the water, how was he still alive?

Perhaps finding it uncomfortable to have dirt in his mouth, Song Qiyuan with great effort turned his body. He coughed a few times, his brows furrowed, then opened his eyes. He swiftly turned his head towards me.

The boy, who had been washed ashore by the waves, was now facing me. For a moment, I felt like prey cornered by a viper.

The boy lay soaked on the riverbank, his face, covered in wounds and framed by dark hair, was a picture of misery. But the atmosphere suddenly shifted, turning sharp, and his tone was cold.

“Who are you?”

The question was concise and to the point.

I breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn’t recognize me as Yu Ke. If he had, the carefully constructed storyline would have crumbled. I cleared my throat, bent down, and gently touched his forehead. Feigning a sigh, I disguised my voice and said,

“Just a passerby who couldn’t bear to leave a pitiful child behind.”

The moment I spoke, Ah Jiu on my shoulder almost burst out laughing. He stood stiffly on my shoulder, his body shaking as he tried to suppress his laughter. I calmly ignored the bird and slowly channeled gentle profound energy into Song Qiyuan’s forehead through my hand. It wouldn’t heal him, but it could warm his chilled body.

Unexpectedly, Song Qiyuan didn’t struggle, silently accepting the help from a stranger. His eyes, red and inflamed from the water, remained tightly shut as I channeled my profound energy, as if they were too painful to open. He seemed to have relaxed.

After some time, his icy forehead finally warmed. As I was about to withdraw my hand, the boy lying on the ground suddenly uttered two words that made me freeze:

Ye Wangzhi.

The child had called out Ye Wangzhi.

Song Qiyuan’s words sent a jolt through my heart. How could I not know who Ye Wangzhi was? The veiled Master – I was so used to calling him that, his name momentarily felt unfamiliar.

Ye Wangzhi was Song Qiyuan’s teacher, his Master. He was a humble man who left little trace of himself, so few knew his name. He was simply a ‘good person’ who silently stayed by Song Qiyuan’s side when the boy’s life took a turn for the worse.

He had a cold personality and a strong sense of justice. He initially rescued Song Qiyuan out of obligation, finding the boy to be quite a burden. But as time passed, their bond deepened, and after sending Song Qiyuan to the Qingcang Sect, Ye Wangzhi felt a lingering sense of loneliness.

In the novel, Ye Wangzhi was an enigmatic character with an unclear background, ambiguous attitude, and suppressed emotions. I had only written about their initial encounter; his subsequent appearances were minimal.

Song Qiyuan, harboring deep resentment, spent a considerable amount of time with Ye Wangzhi, relying on and trusting the only person who showed him kindness after his clan’s destruction. However, despite their years together, Ye Wangzhi never quite overcame his habit of expressing affection coldly.

For instance, if Ye Wangzhi wanted to inquire about Song Qiyuan’s well-being, he would simply say with an impassive face:

“How is your recovery?”

– Your complexion is poor. Have you been taking your medicine? Should I procure more spirit fruits for you?

Song Qiyuan would reply:

“Much better. Thank you, Master.”

– Master is so aloof, but he’s definitely worried about me!

Song Qiyuan had indirectly asked about Ye Wangzhi’s name several times, but he never revealed it. I didn’t know the reason. It simply felt more mysterious that way. After all, delving into every character’s backstory would require too much brainpower.

Their communication was filled with such implied meanings, never explicitly stated. Only when it was time for Song Qiyuan to part with Ye Wangzhi for the Qingcang Sect entrance examination did he finally ask for his Master’s name. Only then did Ye Wangzhi, after a moment of silence, reveal his name, hoping it would be remembered.

After a year together, it was the first and last time Song Qiyuan addressed him as Ye Wangzhi, not Master.

But how did the current Song Qiyuan know Ye Wangzhi’s name? How and why did he learn it? Could it be that this brat was also reincarnated?

D*mn it! No! I quickly dismissed this terrifying thought and racked my brains, trying to recall my encounter with Song Qiyuan a few days ago. His demeanor and behavior were completely different from the Song Qiyuan in my previous life. So reincarnation was definitely out of the question…

I surmised that there must be differences between this world and the one I had written. I had laid the foundation, but the world itself filled in the details. Could it be that Song Qiyuan’s deceased father had told him?
