Unedited. Will be replaced with the edited version by the 14th.

“Su Family Head, I’m also curious when it comes to these people. It seems like he hasn’t gone back to the Qin family before.” Qin Zong’s tone was apologetic. His reply caused both Su Xiongfeng and Qin Yu to become disappointed.

“Didn’t return to the Qin family?” Su Xiongfeng was somewhat doubtful, “If he didn’t return to the Qin family, where in the world did he go?”

Qin Zong shook his head helplessly, “At the time I was pulled back here by Qin Chong. Was he not with you all? How could I know?”

Su Xiongfeng became somewhat absentminded for a moment as he thought back carefully upon the circumstances at the time. Su Wen that scoundrel really didn’t follow them back.

“Su family Head, this one has a guess. Perhaps the great elder had arranged some plans for him, except what exactly these plans are,we have no way of knowing.” On this Qin Zong was also helpless. Qin Yuandao was already dead and whatever he had arranged for Su Wen to do, only the two of them knew.

“Anyways, don’t worry about it Su Family Head. As long as he comes back, this one will personally bring him over to apologize. Will let Su Family Head handle everything.” Qin Zong sincerely replied.

Su Xiongfeng exhaled heavily, “Ok, then I will just wait for Qin Family Head’s good news.”

“Senior, don’t worry. I won’t let that scoundrel off that easily.” Qin Yu walked over and pitched in a comment. He had promised to the Su Family’s Grand Elder, Su Yunhai to kill Su Wen.

Since Qin Yu decided to speak up, Su Xiongfeng decided to give him face.

“Youngster, Laozi trusts you.” Su Xiongfeng turned around to face Qin Yu, “If you have time come find Laozi at Bao Ding city. When the time comes let’s drink a few rounds.” He loved drinking alcohol. Thus, when he met a person with a pleasing character, he must drink with them till they’re drunk.

“Senior, there will definitely be opportunities in the future. However I must implore that Senior leave Bao Dingcity as quickly as possible. These dwarves will definitely not be satisfied with just Luosang City. It shouldn’t be long before Bao Ding City becomes their next target of assault.” Qin Yu spoke in a worried tone.

“Many thanks for the reminder. Laozi understands.” Su Xiongfeng once again cupped his fist, “I’m sure we will meet again someday. Xue’er, let’s go.”

“Yes, Father.” Su Yinxue made a sound of compliance, but didn’t immediately walk away. Rather, she walked up, in front of Qin Yu, “Yu, Qin Yu. Thank you for saving me and my father this time.”

Qin Yu’s lips curved slightly to form a faint smile, “Don’t mention it. This is what I ought to do. As long as you guys are alright.”

“En, then.. Then…….. I hope to see you again someday in the future.” At this moment of departure, although Su Yinxue felt like there were many things she wanted to say to Qin Yu, in this situation and time she didn’t know what to say. She could only eke out a goodbye and then silently leave with Su Xiongfeng.

Watching the leaving figure of Su Yinxue, Qing Yun unexpectedly felt a trace of uneasiness. Why she felt this way was unclear to her.

In the wake of Su Xiongfeng and Tie Shou’s departure, there were a few non-Qin family people in the crowd that had been dependant on relatives that all disappeared into the night.

At the end, there was only the Qin family people left. At least two hundred people. At the moment, they were all dependant on Qin Zong, the family head. Where Qin Zong went, they would be.

“Qin Yu, I…….”

Just when Qin Zong was about to bring everyone into the mountains, Qing Yun became hesitant.

Qin Yu looked over at Qing Yun, his voice sincere as he asked: “Do you want to go with me?

“I……..” Qing Yun wanted to agree but there were just some things on her mind that she couldn’t let go of, “Qin Yu, I’m going to back Luobei. My family is there, I’m worried that the dwarves would mount an assault on Luobei City. So I……..”

Qing Yun’s words caused Qin Yu to remember that Luo Bei City was very close to Luosang City. If they moved at a rapid pace for just half a day they would reach the city. If nothing changes, the undeground city’s army should rest the night in Luosang and it’s probable that on the next day they would go assault Luobei City.

Facing this kind of dangerous situation, Qing Yun’s words reminded the Qin family of how absolutely necessary it had been to evacuate from the city. However if Qing Yun goes, she would be facing great danger. What if the underground city’s army surrounds the Luobei City? Then what? In fact, no one could guarantee that those bastards wouldn’t just advance tonight.

To ensure nothing goes terribly wrong, Qin Yu ought to accompany Qing Yun back. But… he must go find his parents, and Qin Wu also needs an appropriate resting place. He’s unable to cast off his identity and ignore his responsibilities.

“Don’t worry, nothing will happen to me.” Qing Yun was scrutinizing him and saw him worried and so her heart felt very happy.

“Family Head, give me two Sound Transmitting Stones.” Helpless, Qin Yu turned his head around to look at Qin Zong.

Although the Sound Transmitting Stone was rather rare and considered a treasure, Qin Zong just so happened to have some on him. Qin Yuandao’s ring where he stashed his hoard had them.

Previously Qin Zong wanted to hand Qin Yuandao’s treasure stash of a ring to Qin Yu; to hand it over to Qin Zhan. However, he couldn’t give it to him, so Qin Zong still held onto the ring.

“Here.” Qin Zong wasn’t miserly, immediately taking out two Sound Transmitting Stones and passing them over to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu took the two rhombus shaped stones. Inside of the silver white Sound Transmitting Stones he left behind his imprint. He handed Qing Yun one of them and spoke in a serious tone, “If anything happens use the Sound Transmitting Stone to tell me.”

“Mhm.” Qing Yun nodded as she accepted the stone., “After all is done, I will come find you.”

“Alright, be careful on the road.” Qin Yu was deeply concerned still.
