Chapter 115 Young Lady in Purple (1/2)

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Outside the gates of Great Zhou City.

Zhou Yuan helplessly shook his head as he looked at the teary eyed Qin Yu. The only thing he could do was continue to comfort her.

Zhou Qing helplessly said as he watched, “Alright, alright. Yuan’er is no longer a child and should head out to experience the world. There’s no need to be so over sensitive about it.”

“Don’t worry aunt Qin, I will keep an eye on him.” Yaoyao also spoke up to console Qin Yu.

Zhou Yuan was naturally bringing Yaoyao and Tuntun along. After all, Zhou Yuan was the sole reason they had stayed in the Great Zhou Empire.

Qin Yu finally nodded after hearing Yaoyao’s words and said, “I will be a lot less worried with Yaoyao around. If he does not listen to you, go ahead and discipline him.”

Yaoyao faintly smiled as she pursed her red lips.

Zhou Qing retrieved five black crystal cards from his clothes and passed them to Zhou Yuan. Extremely complicated patterns were inscribed on the faintly glowing cards.

Zhou Qing explained, “These are Heavenly Crystal Pavilion crystal cards. Each one can be traded for one hundred thousand Genesis crystals at any Heavenly Crystal Pavilion branch. You will likely need them on your journey.”

Zhou Yuan received them with a wide smile and clicked his tongue as he said, “Five hundred thousand Genesis crystals, almost can’t believe that father is willing to part with such a sum.”

Five hundred thousand Genesis crystals. Such an enormous sum would probably be able to buy a high grade Black tier Genesis Weapon or treasure. To put things into perspective, the small fortune Zhou Yuan had managed to save up after so many years only amounted to a mere fifty thousand Genesis crystals.

Zhou Qing rolled his eyes at Zhou Yuan. “Stinking brat, you’d better be frugal. The Great Zhou Empire is currently experiencing a period of growth and squeezing out these five hundred thousand Genesis crystals has already given me several white hairs.”

Zhou Yuan grinned and kept the cards into his Universe bag.

As he raised his head again, his gaze met Zhou Qing’s. Zhou Yuan could faintly see the concern deeply concealed within the latter’s eyes.

Zhou Yuan softly said, “Then… I’ll be going.”

Zhou Qing waved his hand and said, “Go if you want to, stop being so wishy washy.”

Zhou Yuan chuckled and reached out to hug Qin Yu. Subsequently, he mounted his Fire-Lion Horse and looked towards Zhou Qing. “When your son returns, he will demand justice for all of the grievances and humiliation you had to suffer back then!”

“When that time comes, everything the Great Zhou Empire has lost will be taken back!”

As his words faded, he no longer hesitated and pulled at the reigns. With a neigh, rider and ridee transformed into a blur of red, not turning back a single time as they galloped along the main street.

Yaoyao waved her little hand at Zhou Qing and Qin Yu before swiftly catching up on her own horse.

As they watched the two swiftly departing figures, Zhou Qing’s strained face could no longer maintain its facade. His eyes reddened as he mumbled, “This stinking brat has finally grown up.”

He reached out the only arm he had and embraced the softly sobbing Qin Yu as he continued to stare blankly into the distance.

“Yuan’er, father will be waiting to see the day you soar into the heavens, and the mere mention of your name causes the entire continent to shudder.”

“I want everyone to know that the sacred dragon of our Zhou clan is not so easily crippled!”

...

The Great Wu Empire.

In a certain pavilion within a grand but well guarded palace.

Bead curtains swayed with the wind, emitting crisp chink chink noises. A row of servant girls knelt outside the bead curtains, no one making even the slightest noise.

A go boardwas set Inside the pavilion, black and white distinctly separate.

Clack!

A go piece slowly descended.

The one who had placed it wore a set of bright yellow robes. He had a handsome face, the dark red dot between his brows exceptionally eye-catching, while an aura of dignity spread from his body. It was the crown prince of the Great Wu Empire, Wu Huang.

In front of Wu Huang, a small fair as jade hand pinching a black stone slowly fell as an indifferent voice sounded. “The opening of the Saint Remains Domain approaches. When will you be leaving?”

Wu Huang lifted his head and looked at the person before him.
