Hearing Yan Zhaoge's question, Ouyang Qi let out a long breath, "When Master brought her back, she was called Chang Ning."
There was no need to say anything else. Yan Zhaoge already knew that to the outside world, to others, it would be that Chang Ning had become Ouyang Qi's long-lost twin sister.
"Did you all grow up in the Outer East Sea?" Yan Zhaoge asked.
Ouyang Qi answered this question very straightforwardly. "Ever since I can remember, I grew up on the Cloud Island in the Outer East Sea, six hundred kilometers from Verdant Pill Island. As for Chang Ning, she was discovered by my master when he was traveling to the Inner South Sea when she was young."
Even when they were young, the two of them looked exactly the same. When their masters saw them, they would naturally pay attention.
Yan Zhaoge looked at Ouyang Qi, "Next question; other than the two of you and my junior apprentice-sister, have you seen anyone else like her?"
After a moment of silence, Ouyang Qi said, "There's another person. He's a man like me. His talent shouldn't be bad, but it's a matter of luck. He doesn't practice martial arts. He's just an ordinary fisherman."
"When I first found him, I was so shocked that I missed him. Later, I wanted to bring him back to see Master, but he died in a shipwreck."
Sikong Qing looked at Ouyang Qi, and could understand Ouyang Qi's mental state at that time.
When she saw Chang Ning for the first time, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak. Her situation was not much better than Ouyang Qi's.
Even with Sikong Qing's usual cool temperament and firm will, it was hard for her not to be greatly impacted.
Later on, the great battle had turned into a bloody battle of life and death. This had a lot to do with her unstable state of mind.
Yan Zhaoge asked, "When did this happen?"
Ouyang Qi replied, "A year ago."
Yan Zhaoge raised his head slightly, pondering for a moment before asking, "Did you Master and disciple discover something on the deceased? Therefore, after seeing my junior apprentice-sister, you risked offending my Broad Creed Mountain to capture her? "
Ouyang Qi was silent.
He glanced at Chang Ning's corpse beside him and sighed. "Master examined that person's corpse. Although he had never practiced martial arts before, his corpse seemed to contain a mysterious message."
"Oh?" Yan Zhaoge raised his brows slightly as his gaze also fell on Chang Ning, his gaze seemingly condensing into something tangible.
Instantly, fragmented and unfamiliar runes surfaced within Yan Zhaoge's mind.
The talisman markings were scattered and fragmented, and they didn't form a system, causing others to be unable to discern the true meaning within them.
However, Yan Zhaoge could vaguely feel an extremely profound and profound concept within. While it was just a glimpse, the profound principles contained within were also rather profound.
It was just that as Yan Zhaoge carefully analysed it, he was shocked.
His knowledge and discerning ability far surpassed an ordinary person, and he was able to discern that these scattered talisman markings and talisman seals were probably not even the tip of the iceberg when compared to the entire talisman markings and talisman seals.
In its complete state, the number of runes would probably be as numerous as the stars in the sky.
If every 'Sikong Qing' only had this one rune, then to complete it would very likely mean that there were countless' Sikong Qing's.
Just thinking about it made one's scalp tingle.
A single talisman pattern was already so profound. If all of them were gathered together, how profound and powerful would that be?
Even the knowledgeable Yan Zhaoge clicked his tongue in praise after projecting this out, feeling that it was extraordinary.
Coming to Chang Ning's side, Sikong Qing reached out and touched her corpse. However, she only felt a little confused, blurry, unable to see clearly.
Ouyang Qi said quietly, "One has to be at least a Martial Grandmaster to be able to see through it. If one's cultivation base is insufficient, they would require the assistance of a Martial Grandmaster."
Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge shrugged, coming behind Sikong Qing once more and pressing his palm on her back.
With the assistance of Yan Zhaoge's aura-qi that was filled with spirituality and had returned to simplicity, Sikong Qing was also able to sense the extraordinariness emanating from Chang Ning this time.
Looking at that talisman, she had a different feeling, seemingly wanting to immerse herself within it.
Yan Zhaoge snapped his fingers, only then regaining her wits.
"There's still time." Yan Zhaoge swivelled his head to look at Ouyang Qi, saying smilingly, "I wonder if living people can also sense each other?"
While he was all smiles, looking at him, Ouyang Qi could only feel his entire body turn cold.
He laughed bitterly, "Others can't see us, but we can see each other. With Master's help, Chang Ning and I can also sense each other."
Yan Zhaoge nodded satisfactorily. Sikong Qing came forward, extending her finger and tapping on Ouyang Qi's forehead.
Being suppressed by Ah Hu, Ouyang Qi was powerless to resist. At this moment, he was also not in the mood to resist as he just stood there quietly.
Yan Zhaoge walked forward, pressing his palm against Sikong Qing's back once more.
Gradually, Sikong Qing's expression turned solemn, and the one who benefited from this was also Yan Zhaoge who was helping her.
Ouyang Qi was rather more tragic. Without the help of a Martial Grandmaster, he was unable to sense Sikong Qing.
Within Yan Zhaoge's mind, the image of the shattered talisman surfaced once more.
This time, there were two of them, one originating from Sikong Qing, the other from Ouyang Qi.
They were completely different from Chang Ning's talisman, but their concepts and auras were of the same lineage, similarly being incomplete.
While the three were connected, they were independent of each other.
It was like an infinitely long metal chain, one metal ring after another connected to the other.
And now that the metal chain had broken apart, three solitary metal rings fell from it, placed before Yan Zhaoge.
After a while, Yan Zhaoge retracted his palm, looking at Ouyang Qi, "Isn't it good like this? We can totally work together now, right?"
Ouyang Qi smiled bitterly once more.
Unlike him, even more unlike Sikong Qing, while Chang Ning was a woman, she was irritable and easily angered, arrogant and rash, at the same time seeking instant success.
If it was him, Ouyang Qi, he definitely wouldn't want to make a move against Sikong Qing.
It was just that this time, he had been dragged in along with her.
Ouyang Qi looked helplessly at Yan Zhaoge, who smiled, "Don't look at me like that. You are very cooperative, and I won't harm your life. However, in the coming days, I'll have to invite you to our clan as a guest for some time. As for your Master, just take it as you also having met with a calamity at sea. "
Ouyang Qi sighed towards the heavens, not speaking.
While Yan Zhaoge was smiling, those three shattered talisman patterns continued to revolve within his mind, unable to be dispelled.
His gaze moved between Sikong Qing, Ouyang Qi and Chang Ning.
"When junior apprentice-sister Sikong killed Chang Ning, the scene that appeared before her eyes as well as the complete seal that was deduced from these three talisman patterns corroborated one thing." Yan Zhaoge pondered, "There are far more than four people like them, including the one who died a year ago."
"The few that I know of are all of similar ages, very likely having been born at the same time."
Yan Zhaoge's gaze flickered slightly, "While there are many people in the Eight Extremities World, men and women who look exactly the same, also having such outstanding appearances and the same age, if there are many of them, it is impossible that they would not attract the attention of others."
