Luo Qingchen Lost Her Memory; Luo Qingchen Regained Her Memory

Inside the room.

Luo Qingchen sat cross-legged.

Around her, four pure white wings wrapped tightly in overlapping layers, completely enveloping her body.

The feathers on the wings were whiter and softer than before, emitting a faint luminescence.

Gu Changyuan stood before her. His gaze fell upon her as he extended his divine sense, carefully inspecting her physical condition.

Her overall condition was flawless. The bloodline evolution was a complete success, and her aura had become much thicker and more profound than before.

After waiting for a moment.

The four wings slowly began to unfurl, revealing Luo Qingchen inside.

Her skin had become even more fair and delicate, with a faint glow flowing beneath it.

Her entire temperament had also undergone a subtle change, gaining an indescribable sense of holiness.

Immediately after, the four wings slowly retracted, turning into a streak of golden light that quietly merged into Luo Qingchen's body and disappeared, leaving only a faint, indistinct wing mark on her back.

Luo Qingchen slowly opened her eyes. Her clear pupils darted around, curiously looking at the surrounding disciples.

Then, her gaze locked back onto the person standing at the very center of the crowd.

Gu Changyuan.

Luo Qingchen looked at him, a smile slowly blooming on her face.

That smile was pure, radiant, and completely unreserved.

Then she suddenly threw herself at him, her voice sweet and soft.

"Master!"

Gu Changyuan subconsciously reached out and caught her steadily. He immediately felt Luo Qingchen hugging his waist tightly, rubbing her head against his chest like a clingy kitten, looking obedient and utterly dependent.

???

A trace of astonishment flashed across Gu Changyuan's face, and he secretly wondered: This state seems a bit off.

It wasn't just Gu Changyuan; Tushan Youyao, Ye Qingxue, and the others nearby also instantly noticed Luo Qingchen's abnormality.

After all, ever since Gu Changyuan returned, they had long shed their initial ignorance and naivety, becoming mature and steady.

They no longer clung to their master without any reservations like they did when Gu Changyuan first took them in as disciples.

Having lived for over a thousand years, they possessed the composure they ought to have.

Yet at this moment, Luo Qingchen completely ignored the presence of so many fellow disciples around her and threw herself directly into her master's embrace.

This behavior was truly too abnormal.

Gu Changyuan reached out his right hand, gently stroking Luo Qingchen's head, while a gentle surge of spiritual energy quietly probed into her sea of consciousness to investigate carefully.

Indeed, something was wrong with her sea of consciousness.

This girl must have suffered a slight shock to her sea of consciousness during the critical moment of her bloodline evolution, resulting in a memory gap.

Her memory was stuck at the time shortly after he had taken her in as a disciple.

Back then, she was still a little girl who loved to act spoiled and clingy.

However, Gu Changyuan could clearly sense that this amnesia was only temporary and would not last long.

It would only take a few days. Once her sea of consciousness completely stabilized, her memories would naturally recover.

Come to think of it, it must be because some of her inner obsessions were too deep. Coupled with the impact on her sea of consciousness during the bloodline evolution, it caused this brief memory regression, turning her into this clingy state.

Holding Luo Qingchen with one hand and continuing to rub her head with the other, he looked at the worried faces of the surrounding disciples and spoke calmly:

"It's fine. It should be temporary amnesia from the bloodline evolution. She will recover in a few days."

Hearing their master's words, the disciples breathed a sigh of relief.

They had thought Luo Qingchen's situation would turn out like Gu Xing'er's.

Gu Changyuan looked down at Luo Qingchen, who was still rubbing against him non-stop in his arms, and his mouth twitched slightly.

Great.

It's going to be a busy few days.

...

Over the next few days, apart from Tushan Youyao and Lu Jiuyi, the other disciples rarely showed their faces in front of Luo Qingchen.

It wasn't that they didn't care, but rather that it was unnecessary.

Since she would recover in a few days, getting reacquainted all over again seemed a bit redundant.

Besides, when Luo Qingchen's memories returned, having one extra set of memories would be fine.

But if she had several sets of memories of interacting with them anew, and something embarrassing happened in one of those memories, it would be hard to smooth over.

As for why Tushan Youyao and Lu Jiuyi were exceptions—

That was because they had joined the sect before Luo Qingchen.

Luo Qingchen's memory stopped at the time she had just joined, and back then, Tushan Youyao and Lu Jiuyi were already her senior sister and senior brother.

Since they already knew each other, there was no need to deliberately avoid her.

However, in order not to cause Luo Qingchen unnecessary trouble, the two of them didn't seek out Gu Changyuan very often either.

Gu Changyuan, on the other hand, had no qualms.

Since Luo Qingchen clung to him, he just let her cling.

This girl's memory had returned to when she first joined the sect, and that was exactly how she was back then—like a little tail, following her master wherever he went.

Now it was nothing more than reliving an old dream.

After a few days, Gu Changyuan actually got used to having a little tail around him.

Early morning, a few days later.

The top floor of the Heavenly Demon Tower, in Gu Changyuan's room.

On the bed, Gu Changyuan lay on his side, one hand resting under his head and the other gently placed on Luo Qingchen's head.

Luo Qingchen was curled up in his arms, her head resting on his chest, her body slightly curled.

Her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and then, she slowly opened her eyes.

In those eyes, the ignorance and dependence of the past few days were gone, replaced by clarity.

Her memories had returned.

The moment she opened her eyes, the memories of the past few days flooded back into her mind like a tide—

She remembered waking up, seeing her master at first glance, and throwing herself directly at him.

She remembered clinging to her master like a child, refusing to let go, following him wherever he went.

She remembered acting spoiled, acting cute, and rubbing against him.

She remembered herself—

Insisting on sleeping with her master.

Luo Qingchen's face instantly turned red.

The redness spread from her cheeks to the roots of her ears, and from her ears down to her neck.

She took a deep breath, the familiar and reassuring scent of Gu Changyuan lingering at the tip of her nose. Only then did she belatedly realize that she was still tightly hugging her master, and the two of them were sleeping in the same bed.

Luo Qingchen wanted to back away.

But as soon as she moved, she felt the hand her master had rested on her head twitch slightly.

She immediately stopped.

She didn't dare to move.

After a moment of silence.

Luo Qingchen bit her lip and made a decision in her heart—

Since things had already come to this...

Then, she might as well be a little bolder.

She rested her head back against her master's chest, closed her eyes, and took a gentle breath.

The familiar master.

The familiar scent.

Once, this was exactly how she clung to her master.

That was a very, very long time ago.

Back then, she had just been saved by her master and felt the warmth of being cared for for the very first time.

Having lacked care for so many years, she regarded the master who had suddenly appeared in her life as the most important person to her.
