Yan Zhaoge looked rather stunned at Feng Yunsheng.
He composed himself, smiling as he asked, "Why would I have such a thought? We're all people with two shoulders and one head; what difference can there be? "
Feng Yunsheng shook her head lightly. Since she had already spoken, she no longer held back, "It's just that I feel this way; it might not be correct."
"What I mean by difference is that sometimes, senior apprentice-brother Yan, you seem to be thinking about some things that others are unable to understand."
Looking straight at Yan Zhaoge, Feng Yunsheng said softly, "And sometimes, looking at senior apprentice-brother Yan amidst a sea of people, I also have a feeling of standing aloof from the world."
"The you at that time, makes one feel very lonely."
The smile on Yan Zhaoge's face did not diminish, "Is it just a simple feeling?"
Feng Yunsheng said, "Actually, this kind of feeling has already seldom appeared in recent years. It's just that when you looked at Miss He of the Blood Cloud Clan just now, I had this feeling again."
"Before this, the strongest time was when you handled the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein at the Mountain Domain's Cloud Portent Mountain that year."
Feng Yunsheng raised her head slightly, a little out of sorts, "How should I describe it? You seemed to have obtained great joy, but only you understood what this joy was about. Therefore, you enjoyed it, but at the same time, that lonely feeling, that feeling of being different from others, was also especially intense. "
"No one can understand what you're thinking. You seem to be different from everyone else."
Yan Zhaoge still wore a smile on his face, but did not immediately answer.
He pondered for a moment before smiling, "Is it because I said some strange things about that person called Zhao Hao back then? Don't take it to heart; everyone has times when their thoughts run wild. You also know that I'm a very unreliable person at times. "
Looking at Yan Zhaoge, Feng Yunsheng smiled after a while, "Right, that's right. Maybe the one who's thinking wild is me."
Smiling, Yan Zhaoge retracted his gaze.
He tapped lightly on the table, his eyes looking ahead, yet not focused as he seemed to be in a daze.
Looking at Yan Zhaoge, Feng Yunsheng suddenly felt that at this moment, that feeling of loneliness and alienation on Yan Zhaoge's body was unprecedentedly intense.
It was intense to the point that looking at it, her heart ached.
Feng Yunsheng was shocked.
Feeling the intense change in Feng Yunsheng's emotions beside him, Yan Zhaoge turned his head once more.
Looking at Yan Zhaoge's face, Feng Yunsheng's emotions gradually calmed. Meeting Yan Zhaoge's gaze that was calm as water, she felt something in her heart.
The man in front of her was not weak, nor did he need the pity of others.
From time to time, he would have some inexplicable and ridiculous thoughts, but it was more like a way for him to regulate himself and relax.
Thinking of this, Feng Yunsheng looked at Yan Zhaoge, not saying anything as she met his appraising gaze, only smiling slightly, "What, is there something on my face this time?"
The two looked at each other, smiling. Yan Zhaoge smiled as he shook his head, returning his gaze.
Yan Zhaoge's mind no longer wandered, his gaze clear and focused as he stood up, saying, "We have already remained in the Floating Life World for long enough. Fortunately, we already have a lead on the other half of the mirror."
Feng Yunsheng asked, "Do you know where the other half of the mirror is?"
Yan Zhaoge answered, "Yes."
As the two had communicated via sound transmission earlier, Xu Fei, Ah Hu, Ying Longtu and Su Yun had not been clear on what exactly they had said.
However, all of them could more or less feel that the atmosphere between Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng earlier had been rather subtle.
While they were rather curious, none of them had any intention of delving too deeply into Yan Zhaoge's matter.
"Aunt Yun, please help me look through it. Where exactly is that place?" Saying thus, Yan Zhaoge came to the Snow Crane Sect's ancestral temple along with Su Yun, entering that small foreign dimension.
Currently, the other half of the indentation had already been completely filled up by flowing water, a complete and stable scene was displayed alongside the other half of the mirror.
Within the scene, a heavenly waterfall hung amidst green mountains and clear waters, the scenery rather unique.
Su Yun only glanced at it before saying, "It's the Huoqin Mountain Range in the east, the main peak of the north, the waterfall beneath Yaochen Mountain."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Since that is so, I will first make a trip to Yaochen Mountain."
Su Yun sighed, "Young Master, are you going to leave this Floating Life World?"
Yan Zhaoge said, "Aunt Yun, why don't you reconsider my earlier suggestion? While the current situation in the Eight Extremities World cannot be considered peaceful, moving the Snow Crane Sect to the Eight Extremities World would not be a problem."
"The circulation of the earth veins and spiritual qi of the Floating Life World is really too unfriendly to us qi cultivators."
"While you and Rong 'er will not be affected, it would not be suitable for the other disciples of your lineage to continue remaining in the Floating Life World if they want to have some accomplishments in the qi cultivation martial dao."
Su Yun smiled, "I founded the Snow Crane Sect in the first place to leave behind a legacy for Lady. If my disciples are able to develop in the long term in the martial dao, I would naturally be willing to see it. After all, those who have been able to persevere after entering my lineage all have firm, unwavering hearts towards the martial dao."
"Continuing to remain in the Floating Life World would indeed be delaying them. Young Master, why don't you take a look at them? Feel free to bring away those whose talents are to your liking. I would also not forbid them from joining the sect that Young Master is in."
"Still, I won't be leaving. My husband is a demonic bloodline cultivator, and the Floating Life World is the most suitable place for him to cultivate in. Rong 'er's husband is also a demonic bloodline cultivator. I have asked her, and she is willing to stay behind as well."
"Rong 'er is a Living Source Physique like me. Her cultivation will not be delayed." At this point, Su Yun sighed, "It is just a pity for Chang En and the others. Their talents are actually not bad."
Yan Zhaoge nodded slightly, "The Body Refinement realm and the Martial Scholar realm, especially before the Xiantian Martial Scholar realm, focus primarily on the tempering of one's qi and blood. If it is delayed, starting out late, however good one's talent may be, it would also be wasted. After all, for ordinary people, as they grow older, their qi and blood will unceasingly decline."
It was not advisable for martial practitioners to be too young in age, lest they might end up harming their foundations.
However, it was also not good to start cultivating at an advanced age. It was not that there were no late bloomers, but even those who were often said to be late bloomers actually did not start too late.
Long before the Great Calamity, there had been a saying that if one did not become a Martial Scholar before the age of thirty, one would have no hope of ever becoming a Martial Grandmaster.
This had already been so even in that era where the martial dao was flourishing, much less now.
Yan Zhaoge and his fellow disciples did not have such worries. Those who could enter Broad Creed Mountain would all be geniuses outside. Added with the clan's profound legacies and abundant resources, not becoming a talent was even more difficult than becoming one.
But to the first and second-rate powers outside of Broad Creed Mountain, as well as the small sects, martial arts dojos and small clans of even lower levels, reaching the Martial Scholar realm before the age of thirty was an extremely lofty goal to strive towards.
Other than Su Yun and her daughter who possessed the Living Source Physique, the other martial practitioners of the Floating Life World who walked the path of qi cultivation would all have to face this problem as well.
Yan Zhaoge said, "Aunt Yun, you can rest easy. If the people of the Snow Crane Clan leave the Floating Life World with me, I will make appropriate arrangements for them."
"Now, I will first set off for Yaochen Mountain."
