I slept quite well, so, I am doing well.

[downswing]

How is your cultivation?

[noenvy]

It is going quite well! I think maybe I can make a golden core in a month or so.

[downswing]

Perhaps. With dual cultivation and qi transfer.#

Have you thanked your ancestors today?

[noenvy]

It's the only way this body will get anywhere.

[He knows if he lies he'll be caught on it.]

I didn't think about it today.

[downswing]

Gratitude, for indulging with answers.

[noenvy]

I don't mind it, I've become used to it now. I might get worried if you stop.

[downswing]

Why did master Xiao Xingchen's fate so trouble you?

[noenvy]

...

I can only speak for my experiences, and I only know his are similar to what I am familiar in a way.

He is my Shishu, and though I never met him before, there is still that connection. His plight is related to me as well, though, not directly. While solving a mystery we ran into the end of the story involving him. There was a ghost, she was desperate for help, through empathy I learned what had happened. Xiao Xingchen was a good man, but he was from the mountain and knew little of this wicket world.

I couldn't do anything.... At that time, I was already dead. And when I wasn't, it was already too late.


I met him, both of them, when I arrived here. They didn't know of their cruel fate, I promised myself I would not let them suffer again.

The one who wronged him got what he deserved in the end. But, it wasn't enough.

[downswing]

Wei Ying. Why does this one man impress you so deeply?

[noenvy]

[How can he not? How can his mother's shidi not be important to him? How can he ignore what he saw of this good man? Of the years he lived with A-Qing? How can he not weep at the thought of him dying again, the way A-Qing hand that day? How could he not take blame? Would Xue Yang ever have been able to avoid his original punishment if it hadn't been for his ability to repair the Stygian Tiger Seal? If he hadn't been a demonic cultivator would he have been able to cause so much trouble?

He had to take responsibility for all of it.

And... maybe he could see a bit of himself in it all as well....]

Is it wrong? I may have only lived through it as an onlooker... but I still lived through his plight.

[downswing]

Not wrong. I only wish to understand.

[noenvy]

I don't know how to explain. It's not just that he is my Shishu who is younger than me....

Do you know Empathy?

[Though, it wasn't just that. It was so much. This was a person that was like family, even if he had never met him.]

[downswing]

...you always court danger.

[noenvy]

It was fine, Jin Ling and the juniors were there, it was easy to wake me up with a clarity bell.

[Of course, he had gone into experiencing A-Qings brutal murder before fully waking up though....]

It was a learning experience! No danger, I had it under control.

[OK, there was a lot of danger going on, but, it was under control!]

[downswing]

Tch.

[noenvy]

Did you really have to write that out? Did you feel so compelled to share your disdain that you had to write that to me instead of a proper response?

[downswing]

Not disdain. Rancour you had no option but dangerous sorcery.

Will work harder.

[noenvy]

Oh come now, empathy isn't that dangerous, and it's a perfectly legit skill to use! There are practical applications to it, it's not like I invented it or anything.

And, what else can you do when you want to communicate with a spirit who can't talk? Inquiry is all nice when it's simple questions, but empathy works better for complex ones.

I'm very good at it too!

[downswing]

Wei Ying has always been skiled.

[noenvy]

And it doesn't matter if you have spiritual power or not, it only matters how open you make yourself to the spirit.

[downswing]

...skilled and open to every passing spirit.

[noenvy]

I am not open to every passing spirit, that would be too much!

Anyway, it's not like you have to do empathy with everyone. There are plenty that you can just talk to if you know how to do it right, and they are lucid enough to respond well. There are plenty that are quite fun to talk to, they will tell you all sorts of interesting things about their lives!

Of course, there are others who are a bore and just repeat the same things over and over.

I actually miss spirits being around... sometimes it feels a bit lonely without them.

[downswing]

Endure without your friends. Meditate.

[noenvy]

I'm fine, I don't really need to surround myself with such things anymore anyway.

Not when I can have such casual conversations in the day and night!
