Is the Qiankun Chain yours, Long Xiyue?
What do you mean?
Chu Qianli looked at him, not understanding. "After I arrived in this era, the Qiankun Chain just appeared in my hand. I..."
However, she quickly stopped speaking.
In this era, would he understand such words?
Feng Dingchu's attention seemed to be solely on the Qiankun Chain. He didn't seem to have heard what she said.
"You're saying this Qiankun Chain originally belonged to Long Xiyue?"
The two sat down on the ground, heads bowed in study.
The Qiankun Chain was gone; now, its spirit was attached to Chu Qianli's wrist.
It was like a tattoo, but when she needed to use the Qiankun Chain, it would glow.
Chu Qianli was more curious about another question: "Sir, do you know my mother?"
Feng Dingchu's gaze shifted from the Qiankun Chain to Chu Qianli's face.
Actually, she wasn't very similar to Long Xiyue. Their features were quite different.
It wasn't that everyone had to resemble their mother; most people didn't.
But, in her brows, there was a definite similarity.
"I am your mother's martial uncle. Master Wugou, your mother's master, is my senior brother."
"OMG!" There was such a connection.
Chu Qianli's eyes widened in shock, a glimmer of hope appearing in them. "So, you also know who Nan Chu is, don't you?"
Nan Chu, her mother's senior brother, was the man who might possess the other half of her mother's jade pendant.
Maybe!
She wasn't sure, but Nan Chu was very likely her father.
Chu Qianli grabbed Feng Dingchu's wrist, saying urgently, "Who is Nan Chu's real identity? Where is he now?"
"I don't know." His senior brother's disciples each had their own identities, and he had never inquired about them.
"In fact, I only found out that Long Xiyue was Mingyue by chance; she didn't tell me herself."
Chu Qianli was instantly disappointed. "So, you don't know who Nan Chu is either?"
"I really don't know." If he knew, he wouldn't lie to her.
"Why are you so anxious to find Nan Chu?" Not only anxious, but also so despairing and sad when he heard you didn't know?
Chu Qianli shook her head. She couldn't tell him about something she herself wasn't sure of.
However, Feng Dingchu wasn't one to pry.
Since Chu Qianli was unwilling to speak, he didn't ask further.
"There is a surge of true qi within you, which I suspect is related to the Qiankun Chain. However, the Qiankun Chain indeed belonged to Long Xiyue; I've seen it."
That was why he wasn't surprised when she repeatedly took things out of the Qiankun Chain.
"There should be other things left by Long Xiyue inside the Qiankun Chain."
"There's nothing extra inside." She had looked before. Initially, the space was empty, with nothing in it.
Chu Qianli lowered her gaze and looked at the space again carefully.
But after this glance, she suddenly raised her eyes and looked up at him. "Sir..."
"What did you see?"
"I saw a blurry corner. It seems to contain a huge chest, but I can't see it clearly, nor can I open it, or even get close to it."
"Your cultivation is not enough." Feng Dingchu raised a long finger and tapped her nose. "Perhaps one day, when you can control the true qi within you, you will be able to see clearly what is in that corner."
He stood up. "Girl, it's New Year's Eve today. Go back and spend it with the people you should be with."
He turned and was about to leave.
