Chapter 690 - Wind and Thunder (1/2)

When Song Qingyi was in the Youshen Kingdom, he promised Shen Lian to protect Shen Lian's female apprentice Si Jing secretly. Initially, Fang Yanying was here but Shen Lian had some matter to attend to. Therefore, Fang Yanying returned to the Zhou Kingdom.

Si Jing was aware of Song Qingyi. When she knew that he was an old friend of Shen Lian, she was very respectful towards him. She often asked Song Qingyi about Shen Lian's past.

When Song Qingyi talked about Shen Lian to Si Jing, he discovered that Si Jing treated Shen Lian differently, like Qixiu. However, Qixiu was long gone and she never managed to see Shen Lian again.

Song Qingyi was not aware whether Qixiu was alive or dead. He felt that Qixiu must have lived with regret. She did not express her feelings courageously. This had nothing to do with her cultivation but it was her own choice. Words that were chosen to speak out depend on a person's temperament.

Therefore, Si Jing being in the same shoes as Qixiu earned Song Qingyi's pity.

Si Jing also noticed the change in Song Qingyi's attitude so she rarely met him again. Perhaps it was due to Song Qingyi had finished talking about Shen Lian so Si Jing had nothing else to communicate with him.

Song Qingyi lived for a long time and so he knew this might be a misunderstanding. He only pitied Si Jing and had no other thoughts.

A month ago, there was an indescribable Qi in the Youshen Kingdom. In the beginning, Song Qingyi thought it was the result of Si Jing's practice but later he found out that there was a new group of people in the Royal Palace in the Youshen Kingdom, replacing the palace's original guards. These people were similar to Si Jing's Qi. Hence, they were known as the people of Si Jing. They were the Youhu's from Lei family, aristocrat blood from the Xia Kingdom.

Song Qingyi secretly looked at Si Jing. Since she seemed to have no issue, he did not create a fuss.

However, it seemed abnormal this day. There were warm heating in the Royal Palace, so the flowers bloomed while the green grass and old trees were sprouting.

The warm heat was pure Yang Qi but it was rather blazing. Soon, the spring in the Royal Palace turned into a hot summer.

Song Qingyi felt that something was wrong so he went in all the way inside the palace to meet Si Jing.

Song Qingyi wondered that it was his illusion that Si Jing was more beautiful than before. Nonetheless, he did not have any second thoughts so he also did not avoid her grandeur.

Si Jing queried, ”What is the matter senior Qingyi?”

Song Qingyi replied, ”The weather in the Royal Palace was very strange. I was afraid that you were in trouble so I came to figure things out.”

”Senior Qingyi can see that I am fine now. So, don't worry,” Si Jing's clear eyes looked at Song Qingyi. As he was looking into her eyes, he seemed to see a flash of lightning.

He responded, ”Your Lightning Technique seemed to be stronger.”

Si Jing doubted so.

Song Qingyi looked into her eyes again. The lightning was gone but the eyes were glittering. This was uncommon. He reaffirmed, ”Yes.”

Si Jing ordered, ”Senior Qingyi had a sharp eye. I made some improvements but I am tired now. Please return.”

Song Qingyi screened through Si Jing and uttered, ”I shall make my move now. Take care.”

He turned and walked towards the entrance. Suddenly, Si Jing motioned a formula and a lightning appeared to burst out in front of her. It immediately gushed towards Song Qingyi.

Halfway, the lightning hit into a void. Then, a person with Wind Lightning Wings appeared. It was obvious Si Jing was not attacking Song Qingyi. If she did not make that move, the person would strike Song Qingyi.

This time, it appeared a chain that was woven by the lightning on Si Jing's throne. It tied her up completely and her face became pale due to the pain.

Song Qingyi turned and echoed, ”Who are you?”

The weird man spread his Wind Lightning Wings. Immediately, the sound of thunder and wind echoed across the hall. He looked at Song Qingyi coldly but he did not reply.
