He did not realize that the coolness was the breaths transformed from the icy air. One of the vital energies, the chill air could turn into purified spiritual energy. But Qin Feixiong was a cultivator in the mortal realm and incapable of enduring the force of the energy even by virtue of his refinement. Qin Dong converted the icy air into breaths stocked in Qin Feixiong's body. But this breath was stronger than that of a cultivator at the peak of the Xiantain stage.
Changing the chill air into breaths bearable for cultivators in the mortal realm was slow and harder than common cultivation practices. Qin Feixiong still had a long and bumpy path to go, but his future was bright.
Qin Feixiong would realize the profoundness, so Qin Dong did not explain to him, smiling, "Big brother, are you hungry now?"
Qin Feixiong covered his stomach and nodded in embarrassment.
Qin Dong threw one carp to Qin Feixiong, but he did not seize it due to its slipperiness and struggle. It flipped aloft and nearly dropped in the pool.
"Oops!" Qin Zongheng felt pity and screeched. It must have taken some efforts for Qin Dong to catch it.
Qin Feiyan gaped at the fish, but did not know what to do.
Qin Dong gripped right hand at once and the fish flew towards his palm as if being sucked up by an invisible silk thread.
Astounded, Qin Feixiong and Qin Feiyan stared at Qin Dong as if meeting a ghost.
Qin Zongheng could apply the technique reluctantly with his current cultivation base. Besides, what he sucked were objects not alive things.
"Younger brother, am I dazzled?" Qin Feixiong was the most stunned and murmured in a trance.
Qin Zongheng's eyebrows scrunched up. "Feixiong, Feiyan, it's time to tell you the truth." He turned to Qin Dong, seeming to ask his approval.
Qin Dong nodded after deliberation, because he could not cheat Qin Feiyan any longer.
Qin Zongheng faced puzzled Qin Feixiong and Qin Feiyan, "The Qin Dong now before you two is not the real second young master."
Qin Feiyan was too surprised to move. Qin Feixiong winked, "Grandpa, are you kidding?"
Qin Zongheng swirled head, "You're not foolish and know very well about the second young master. Is he an equal of the Qin Dong before our eyes? The former is a worm and latter a dragon. They cannot be mentioned in the same breath."
"You're not the second young master. Who are you?" Qin Feiyan believed Qin Zongheng's words, since she found something strange with Qin Dong earlier.
Qin Dong chuckled, "What a coincidence that the second young master and I look the same and have identical names. Besides, I also have a birthmark, the symbol of dragon envoy, on my chest. You surely have mistaken me as the second young master."
"Really? Unbelievable!" Qin Feiyan mumbled with disbelief.
So did Qin Feixiong and he doubted that he was dreaming.
"It's hard to believe. But this is reality! Feixiong, Xiao Dong is not our second young master, but the real dragon envoy! Therefore, I ask you to treat him as your younger brother in others' presence, but show your respect to him when nobody is around!"
Qin Dong hurried to say, "Grandpa, no need. We belong to different branches but the same patriarchal clan. Feixiong is my big brother!"
