Indeed, if an existence can easily erase someoneâs presence, then it must be able to do it more perfectly, leaving no trace for anyone to notice the anomaly.
Not to mention, such a significant loophole could be detected not only by the Qiankun Realm, but even the most ordinary cultivator in the Demon Sect would find it perplexing.
Yet, such an extraordinary manifestation, albeit without meticulous handling of details, occurs right by Ah Qing and Shi Qingjun.
The all-penetrating Lingyu appears only around him, almost announcing to others that he slipped up, even when covertly using Spiritual Power to shield from the rain, Shi Qingjun saw it once.
The Tribulation Thunder is terrifying, yet he was present without being affected in the slightest.
The frightening Dao Rhyme Cage appeared, yet dissipated because of his presence.
Due to âignorance,â Xu Changâan often does similar thingsâAh Qing, though unable to know all the details, can perceive about seventy percent of Xu Changâanâs characteristics from her perspective.
Possessing powers comparable to the Heavenly Dao, yet showing flaws in strange places... it seems connected to Xu Changâan, doesnât it?
Because the young master is unaware of his own abilities, he naturally canât perform well in âcleaning upâ afterward.
âIt must be... It must be Young Master Xu.â
âThe one who erased the first seat, it must be him.â
As Ah Qing grew accustomed to the Flower Moon Building, she gradually became a very divergent thinker, and sometimes a flash of insight would prompt her to ponder issues from an unusual angle.
Then, everything aligned in her mind.
Only and only the Heavenly Dao could erase the Qiankun Realm from the world in such a manner.
She guessed this matter was connected to Xu Changâan.
She also speculated that Xu Changâan was related to the Heavenly Dao.
Thus, Ah Qing concluded that "her memory was influenced because of Young Master Xu."
Because of her beloved.
So, although she had always been a cautious woman, even if she realized that the details in her memory had been altered, she could still disregard it and even laugh aloud.
Ah Qing never considered whether, if memories could be erased or changed, the love in her heart at that moment might also be false.
She never considered it at all.
Because the warmth is real, and the love-struck heart is also real, without any emptiness or discord.
Moreover, as long as itâs Young Master Xu, it doesnât matter, he can do whatever he wants.
Ah Qing even had the thought that as long as the young master commanded, she could become a World Fragment, and the mere disappearance of a person in her memory... she wouldnât feel uneasy because of it, in fact...
She even felt happy because, although she was always far from Xu Changâan, the gaps in memory were evidence of the young masterâs proximity to her.
So she wouldnât worry but rather smile.
Indeed, because she had someone she liked, Ah Qing had completely become a âcheapâ girl.
But as long as sheâs enjoying it, itâs not anyone elseâs place to judge her right or wrong.
She simply likes it.
"Shi Qingjun, let me share another piece of information with you." Ah Qing said with a smile.
"What?" Shi Qingjun frowned, "You... have a suspicion about the memory alteration?"
Shi Qingjun was very astute.
"Why call it alteration and make it sound so unpleasant? It was merely the removal of an unstable existence." Ah Qing bit her lip with dissatisfaction, then shook her head, "I do have suspicions, but overall... itâs definitely not something to be cautious of, I just wanted to mention it to you, nothing more."
"..." Shi Qingjun gave Ah Qing a deep look.
One, only the Heavenly Dao can do such a thing?
Two, Ah Qing had her memory altered, yet she wasnât worried, and could even laugh aloud.
With her eyes lowered, Shi Qingjunâs eyes were slightly moist.
She suddenly felt a bit helpless.
Could it be that in Ah Qingâs mind, she herself is such a dull and clumsy woman?
As long as sheâs not a fool, combining it with the previous topic, she can easily guess that the one Ah Qing thinks altered her memory... is Xu Changâan, right?
The topic has already reached this point, yet Ah Qing still wants to conceal it?
Itâs worth noting that when facing incomprehensible things, even Shi Qingjun has developed the habit of giving up on thinking and attributing them to Xu Changâan... Therefore, upon hearing Ah Qing mention that memory might be unreliable, the first person that came to her mind was also Xu Changâan.
Yes, indeed, if it were him, he could unintentionally erase someoneâs presence and yet fail to handle the aftermath wellâsimply because he never realized that it had anything to do with her.
Whether itâs Lingyu or the Celestial Tribulation, Shi Qingjun was present for it all.
This matter is likely also related to him nine times out of ten.
Upon realizing this, Shi Qingjunâs mood suddenly relaxed significantly, feeling inexplicably relieved, as if the matter of her memory possibly being altered was no longer important at all?
Indeed, compared to something that can seal the cultivation of the whole world, a mere Qiankun Realm is totally insignificant.
Understanding this, upon meeting Ah Qingâs gaze, Shi Qingjun suddenly paused.
Because Ah Qing was smiling at her.
That smile carried an indescribable meaning.
Ah... so thatâs it.
Shi Qingjun suddenly understood.
Ah Qing of course knew that she would think of this matter as something to do with Xu Changâan; she just didnât want to bring Xu Changâanâs affairs to light... So, as for the matter of her memory being influenced by Xu Changâan, as long as the two of them understood without saying it out loud, it was fine.
