56 Might is Righ (1/2)
Qin Keqin was startled when Lu Qingyun had suddenly lifted her up and was carrying her in his arms as he said gently, \”I can't have you dirty your shoes and dress on the way back. Let me carry you…\”
He did not know why he had suddenly had the courage to lift her up or even to touch her. It was only after he had lifted her to carry her in his arms that he thought that he may be a little too disrespectful to his master.
He had actually forgotten that she was his master and had only thought that she was a maiden that he had liked. This happened so naturally to him that he was now suddenly cursing himself for what he had just done…
But Qin Keqin did not seem to mind at all; she said dreamily as she cuddled to his chest, \”Mm, thank you. Let's go then!\”
\”Alright!\” he said.
Qin Keqin was actually quite surprised when Lu Qingyun was trying to be a gentleman. Actually with her lightness skill and the dissipate force of her profound aura, there was no way that her shoes and dress would ever get dirty but she kept this fact to herself.
Quietly, she placed her fingers on his firm chest and was comforted by the warm of his body. She quietly said to herself, \”I like this feeling. It is like the old days…\”
Lu Qingyun had a strange déjà vu that he had somehow carried Qin Keqin before but he placed that thoughts behind him, \”It must have been in one of my dreams…\”

The entire Heavens Ridge Villa was in panic.
It was not because of the thunderstorm that was booming thunderously nonstop. Although it was almost unheard of the thunders to thunder every one second for the past hour but the leaders of the Heavens Ridge Villa was more concerned about the arrival of the Solitary Manor.
Supremacy Wen Hongguang had brought his old patriarch to the Heavens Ridge Villa and along with him was Celestial Bai Laoxiong and tens of his senior protégés.
He was demanding to see Qin Keqin and that he would level down the Heavens Ridge Villa.
Although Supremacy Wen Hongguang had less than three hundred men but this was not an empty threat at all. Other than Celestial Bai Laoxiong, he had brought along two of his clan elders who were fifth realm golden celestials as well.
But this was not all.
This 'old patriarch' of his, was a seventh realm saint level cultivator and was extremely formidable. He did not look old at all but was middle age. In the world of cultivators, looks could be deceiving and this old patriarch was actually centuries old.
Old Saint Wen was his given moniker and he had come to address the wrongs that had been afflicted upon Supremacy Wen Hongguang.
As though he was afraid that the Heavens Ridge Villa did not know that he was a seventh realm expert, he had purposely revealed his formidable profound aura as he stepped into the boundary of the Heaven Ridge Villa, triggering one celestial array after another of his approach.
At this moment the heavy rainstorm had just stopped and the leaders of the Heaven Ridge Villa were having a face-off with the leaders of the Solitary Manor at the main entrance of the Heavens Ridge Villa.
The six leaders of the Solitary Manor were the grand elders and they were Celestial Shi Guanyin, Enlighten Celestial Ouyang Xue, Immortal Celestial Yun Xing, Celestial Kong Guxin, Immortal Celestial Wang Ming and Immortal Celestial Mu Han.
But at this moment the leaders of the Heavens Ridge Villa did not know whether to laugh or cry when they saw the state of the intruders. Except for the high level leaders, most of the protégés of the Solitary Manor was drenched by the sudden heavy downpour and were looking extremely pathetic.
At this point the leaders of the Heavens Ridge Villa were feeling more pathetic along with their hundreds of senior protégés that were behind them. It was because of this 'Old Saint Wen' who had suddenly arrived.
Celestial Shi Guanyin said coldly, \”I've told you already. Our acting sect leader is out. You won't be able to find her even if you barge inside. So why don't you just leave quietly? In this way, we can still maintain the amicable ties between our two celestial clans.\”
Supremacy Wen Hongguang laughed coldly, \”Amicable ties? Did you consider our amicable ties when you destroy my spirit entity? Today, we will be taking Qin Keqin away. If you are smart enough, then you will give way to me or else don't blame me for being impolite.\”
Old Saint Wen said coldly as he stepped forward, \”It is pointless to say too much to them. It seems that we can only use force to settle this.\”
As he stepped forward, he waved his hand and immediately the wet pavements were all dried by the gentle force of his profound aura.
Everyone was startled and many were gasping with astonishment. With just a wave of his hand, he had dissipated the waters from the ground and it was as though it had never rained!
This was the strength of a seventh realm expert!
Old Saint Wen coolly said, \”In case the ground may be too slippery for you, I have made it a little convenient for you to engage me.\”
Shi Guanyin immediately whispered to the rest of the grand elders, \”Let me be the first to engage him.\” With a melancholy sigh, she said. \”Please help me to thank sect leader…\” she did not elaborate why she was thanking sect leader. There were some protégés that had misunderstood that she had meant to say thank you to the sect leader for sending her to the doom. However this was not the case and she was really grateful to Qin Keqin.
She thought silently, \”Let me be the first to sacrifice for the Heavens Ridge Villa. This is where I grow up…\”
Leng Qiuyue had immediately stepped forward and drawn her sword, \”Master, let me accompany you!\”
Shi Guanyin looked at her sternly, \”Stay back if you still have any respect for me!\”
Leng Qiuyue said with trembling lips, \”Master, you are like my parent to me. How can I allow you to…\”
