Chereads / Awkward Adventure of Self-Conscious Teen Saviour / Chapter 39 - You shall know I regard you as my friend

Chapter 39 - You shall know I regard you as my friend

Fushe watch his master that still hold the bird origami which contain the single word calligraphy. He know what his master currently thinking but Fushe does not know how to talk to him as Fushe find it is quite outlandish that even after 800 years, Yang ancestor is still alive. The longest life span a cultivator can actually reach is about 250 years and that is already taking a considerable effort from the cultivator to reach such longevity.

However, Fushe also realise since the debacle with Cheng Jiayi in the hospital previously, what he naively believe is the norm might not really just that. The cultivation that they practice in this world might only scratch the surface level. Thus, it explains all the obscure and arcane knowledge that he has in his mindscape. Some of it quite mindboggling which does not correspond with the reality of the cultivation level of this world.

So, perhaps, this is only his intuition, that Yang ancestor is not someone from this world at all. Look at the cultivation legacy he left; it is rather advance compared to other cultivation technique that perform by other cultivation clan in this world. He also find it quite similar in the principal and essence of cultivation theory that stored in abundance in his memory.

Fushe always wander why he has this kind of knowledge that could not be utilised in this world until that fated meeting with powerful Cheng Jiayi which strengthen his previous deduction, he might be from other cultivation world together. Place that has advance, higher and much more powerful technique than this world they reside.

So now the question is, how they all ended up in this world. Who is his master that seems cherish by the powerful Cheng Jiayi. Besides of that, what is Fushe true identity as well ? He remember Cheng Jiayi address him as celestial fairy Fushe, the owner of a celestial mirror.

Mirror !?

Ahh why he cannot relate this, he is residing in one such mirror isn't he. He pretty sure that powerful Cheng Jiayi murmur that the brass mirror some kind of celestial heirloom. Celestial ? Is that mean he is some kind of celestial being ? Is it the same celestial like those in the myth ? Somehow he cannot relate it, as those myth never make him recall of anything but one meeting with that powerful Cheng Jiayi prompt him to reminisce memory that he clearly never recollect before.

Fushe still has a lot that he have to remember before he can confirm this hypothesis of him. But what frustrate him the most is he cannot share this with anyone, not even his master. Now he has to tiptoe and heightened up his vigilant when he converse with his terribly intelligent master. Fushe is lucky he is not bonded with the eldest young master, that young man has more acute sense and wisdom despite his young age.

That scary powerful Cheng Jiayi who can sent someone to whatever terrifying place as punishment is not someone he dare to contradict, even for his dear master. Besides, he only asked him to keep it as a secret for now, maybe in the future it will not be necessary. Perhaps, whose know, think Fushe.

But now, another mystery pop up, is it true the ancestor of Yang family still alive and currently live in that hidden area ?

"Fushe remember I said to you that there is a qualitative changes in my cultivation after that day I visit Cheng Jiayi in the hospital. I feel resonance with the energy in the heaven and earth, even my breathing technique cause me to feel hot and warmth in my entire body, then something happened, I release a turbid air which then make my whole body relaxed. There is a burst of unknown energy liberate in my entire body that I don't know what it is, but hmm I feel like I am touching a surface or a boundary of something bigger, but I don't know how to breach it yet, it need something,"

Fushe look at his master that finally speaking after moment of contemplating.

"If that person in the hidden area is truly the patriarch, then do you think he can guide me about this new sensation within my body. I feel if I cannot channel this energy properly, it might cause backlash to me." Yang Guang statement make Fushe feel worried but he himself has no clear notion of how to resolve this matter. He has tried his best to remember more, but it will just cause detrimental effect to him. It is only thanked to that powerful Cheng Jiayi who give him some kind of energy that make his spirit far more stable.

To be honest, as a spirit living in an heirloom, he can do nothing aside sharing knowledge with his master. Truly a definition of weak and shabby heirloom spirit and that brass mirror has nothing special about it. It is not even a weapon. Then something click in Fushe mind.

"Master, if that person really the ancestor then he might know lot of thing including about the brass mirror. As an heirloom it do nothing aside sheltering my spirit, and I am truly a good for nothing spirit that cannot help you anything," Fushe state his remarks seriously. Yang Guang glance at him then he slowly shake his head.

"Your knowledge and instruction that help me to increase my competence in cultivation. You have accompanied me since I was a little baby, taught me a lot and I appreciate it truly. So never said yourself as good for nothing, Fushe. There is always reason for everything that happened. Maybe our destiny and fate has been designated as we are owing one another, I hope one day I can help to release you from forever living in that mirror, no one shall be imprisoned and their choice taken. You know I always regard you as my friend, Fushe," the word saying by that young master in front of him make Fushe fall into trance. Somehow, a memory forcefully emerge in his mindscape.

A young man, with great stature and bearing, full of dignity and regal poise, wearing what seems like a whole armour attire that look majestic and imposing. On his head, he wear a simple jade headdress, but his long silvery white hair and molten gold eyes is glistening, while playing with a stone pearl that glide smoothly between his long fingers.

"You know I regard you as my friend, Fushe."

The same exact word, speak by two person that seems different like heaven and earth but when those two silhouettes overlap, they exactly look the same.

Seeing Fushe that suddenly in trance, yang Guang quite taken aback. There is nothing he can do aside calling his name a couple of times but after minutes past and Fushe still in that position, Yang Guang feel nervous with his inabilities to help. But just as how he fell into that state, Fushe shuddered and he look at his master.

"What happened to you ?" Yang Guang directly asked him, want to pat his shoulder or anything but Fushe is just a mere spirit, intangible.

"I don't know master, but it seems my memory recall something, my conversation with someone, inside a very rich decorated room, this person seems so regal, like an emperor, but erm," Fushe look at Yang Guang and something click in his mind.

"He look exactly like you ?" when he said this Fushe does not know either he makes a statement or basically questioning his memory. Listening to it, Yang Guang brow that situated perfectly upon his almond eyes furrow a bit. His amber eyes colour also deepened a notch, and from the play of light, it looks like the shining gold in reflection.

"Your memory has me in it ? Hmm maybe it is true we does share some fate and destiny Fushe. Perhaps you have done such a heinous and detrimental deed which cause you to be imprison in that mirror and have to serve me as my spirit servant as a means of atonement of your sin," although Yang Guang said this with a teasing lilt and there is a smile on that handsome face, however it overlap with the word that the powerful Cheng Jiayi said.

"It is an apt punishment for you to become the servant of him. Your existence has brought calamity to many, but I know you have no choice and you have done it without your own consent."

From the depth of his very core, Fushe feel dreadful and somehow wonder if it is worth it for him to recall back his lost memory. Isn't this what the powerful Cheng Jiayi has remind him that day, slowly he would remember back his memory, but will he be truly ready to face his own nightmare ? 

It will be totally devastated if he indeed once ago has done a heinous and detrimental deed to Yang Guang and many other. That kind of memory, it is better buried eternally.
