"I don’t know." The girl shook her head, but her eyes were full of wonder.
"But the power you just displayed was truly terrifying. You were able to directly control those men in black and retreat unscathed. What exactly is this ability? Can you teach it to me?"
Xue An smiled freely, "It seems you’ve been the one asking us questions from the start. Can I ask you something first?"
The girl didn’t hesitate at all and nodded directly, "Sure, go ahead!"
"What is your name, and who is your teacher?"
"My name is Si Qingqing. As for my teacher..."
The girl paused for a moment, then slowly revealed an unexpected answer for everyone.
"I actually don’t have a teacher at all. Everything I said was told to me by my brother!"
"Oh? Then who is your brother?"
"My brother’s name is Fei Bai."
Fei Bai?
Huyue and Ao Shu exchanged glances, faces full of confusion.
Because they had never heard of this name before.
On the contrary, Xue An was slightly stunned, then smiled meaningfully.
"Fei Bai... I didn’t expect it to be him!"
"What? Do you actually know my brother?" Si Qingqing asked in surprise.
"Of course I know him. Isn’t your brother very good with a sword?"
"Yes, yes, my brother is amazing with a sword." Si Qingqing nodded repeatedly, "Since you know my brother, what is your name?"
"Me...?" Xue An sighed lightly, "My name is Xue An."
"Xue An..." Si Qingqing hesitated a bit, then shook her head, "My brother never mentioned that name!"
"Of course, you haven’t heard of me because although I know your brother, your brother might not necessarily know me."
Si Qingqing was even more puzzled.
What does it mean that he knows her brother, but her brother doesn’t necessarily know him?
Could it be that he has heard of her brother’s deeds?
Hmm!
Maybe that’s it.
As Si Qingqing pondered secretly, Xue An said solemnly, "Where is your brother now? Can you take us to meet him?"
"Well..."
"Don’t worry, we’re not bad people. At least in some respect, we share the same goals as you and your brother." Xue An said calmly.
Seeing Xue An’s calm demeanor but earnest eyes, Si Qingqing hesitated slightly and then nodded.
"Okay, since you dared to resist the Federal Credential Bureau’s men in black and saved me, it proves that you’re indeed not bad people. I believe my brother will be very happy to meet you."
Having said this, she turned to look out the window, "Can this strange object fly?"
"Of course!"
"Great, then let me control it next."
Xue An handed over part of the control of the Magic Treasures Pavilion to Si Qingqing.
She first determined the direction and their current location, then piloted the Magic Treasures Pavilion swiftly toward a direction in the starry sky.
While she focused on piloting, Huyue approached Xue An and asked in a low voice, puzzled.
"Old Xue, who is this Fei Bai? Why were you surprised upon hearing this name and then want to meet him?"
"Yes, Brother An, do you really know this Fei Bai?"
Xue An chuckled, "Of course I know him; not only do I know him, he was once a member of the Fire Phoenix Special Forces!"
"A member of the Fire Phoenix?" Huyue was stunned.
He of course understood what Fire Phoenix meant to Xue An.
It was his absolute team, consisting entirely of subordinates loyal to him.
Unfortunately, after a great upheaval, in this altered world, although the Fire Phoenix still existed, it became Hongyu Shanzhuang’s private security force.
Huyue had once visited this unit and met Cheng Hao and others, but they all no longer remembered Xue An.
Just then, An Yan suddenly said, "Honey, is this Fei Bai the person you saved in the Kunlun Secret Realm?"
Xue An nodded, "Yes, it’s him!"
The story of Fei Bai dates back to shortly after Xue An’s rebirth when the Kunlun Secret Realm emerged, and he ventured in alone, encountering many people.
Among them was Fei Bai, who at the time was a true legacy prodigy of Sword Mountain Villa in the Kunlun Secret Realm with considerable strength, particularly skilled in swordsmanship.
But Xue An was best known for dealing with arrogance, so this Kunlun Secret Realm prodigy began to doubt his life after crossing paths with Xue An.
However, Xue An didn’t kill him, because Fei Bai wasn’t exactly bad, and had a deep passion for swordsmanship.
Such a person would be a waste to kill, so Xue An decided to keep him around.
And Fei Bai was no fool, naturally seeing Xue An’s strength. Yet Sword Mountain Villa foolishly thought they could confront Xue An, quickly learning their lesson.
Afterward, Fei Bai made a surprising decision, resolutely joining Xue An and being a member of the Fire Phoenix Special Forces.
For him, it was likely a significant, life-changing decision, but he didn’t hesitate. He stated clearly that to restore Sword Mountain Villa’s glory, he first had to bee strong himself.
That’s why he made this decision.
This left a strong impression on Xue An.
Yet after leaving the Kunlun Secret Realm, the Fire Phoenix Special Forces grew increasingly powerful, and with talents like Zhou Daniu and Cheng Hao being gradually discovered and polished by Xue An, their brilliance was unparalleled.
In contrast, Fei Bai seemed rather average, remaining mostly in the background as an unremarked presence.
But this didn’t mean Xue An had forgotten him, especially upon hearing that this girl named Si Qingqing claimed Fei Bai taught her independent thinking, igniting Xue An’s curiosity about him.
Did Fei Bai notice something significant? And how did he leave the Fire Phoenix Special Forces if it still exists?
With these questions, Xue An set out to find answers.
By now, the Magic Treasures Pavilion had crossed numerous starry domains, arriving at a bustling star system.
During the journey, through Si Qingqing’s narrative, Xue An roughly learned about this world’s structure.
In this altered world, since the so-called Evil God War, Earth’s development accelerated rapidly.
With the technology left by the "Divine Clan," Earth’s humanity quickly mastered interstellar travel and began expanding furiously.
Although it’s hard to say about farther reaches, at least more than half of the Milky Way was now marked by humans from Earth.
