In the following time, Yuan Ming and the Emperor talked more about their experiences and amusing incidents related to cultivation. When recounting his experiences in Biluo Cave, Yuan Ming suddenly thought of someone and asked, "Your Majesty, could you help me inquire about a disciple from Chang Chun Temple?"
The Emperor was curious and said, "Who is worth such a special inquiry from Brother Ming? Could it be a confidante you met outside?"
Yuan Ming rolled his eyes and said irritably, "What are you thinking? This person's name is Ma Xingkong; he was originally a disciple of Biluo Cave and later joined Chang Chun Temple. That's why I'm asking."
"Ma Xingkong? It seems I've heard this name before. I'll ask around for you after I go back," the Emperor promised.
Yuan Ming then described Ma Xingkong's appearance, personality, and some past events.
