Chapter 986: A Name

"Who are you? Why should I remember you?" the young man asked.

Ning was a little surprised. 'Did I hurt his soul too badly? Did he lose memories?' he asked the system.

<He does have a lapse in memory due to the damage to his soul, but fortunately, once he reaches a higher level of cultivation base, his soul should heal, albeit at a slower pace. Even if you were to leave him alone, his soul will heal, and eventually, he will remember everything.>

'I see, that's great then,' Ning thought. He looked back towards the young man's soul and spoke. "You were ill just before, and I helped heal your soul. Something must have happened for you to temporarily lose your memory, but you will remember it eventually."

"My… soul?" the young man asked as he looked at his own hands again. "Argh! I'm a ghost!" 

"Sigh, you're not a ghost, you're a soul. You've been reincarnated," Ning said. Having to explain it all over again felt annoying, but what else could he do?
