Chapter 454 - Idol (1/2)
Seven Days before the Announcement for the Regal Gods Congregation.
When Qinyang awoke, she was already resting inside a room. She… was disoriented remembering how she was suddenly knocked unconscious. She also remembered her childish and idealistic words she threw at Wang Ling and covered her face as it turned red from embarrassment.
[How foolish of me… AHhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Ouch!] she bit her tongue as she screamed deep inside from the embarrassment, she brought upon herself. When she walked out of said room, she encountered a hallway with more quarters lined up. She walked to her right sensing the flow of the wind and arrived at the deck, [I can't believe I told him that! Will he think of me as annoying now? Will he hate me?] Qinyang was unsure.
[I want to ask him.] Qinyang made the quick decision and then stood up, exiting the room into a hallway. She followed the smell to the exit.
Qinyang reached the deck, the first thing she saw was three people fighting. In front of her was a mysterious woman, dancing with her blade with combined elegance and ferocity, against the twins who sealed their strength to the Second Rank of cultivation.
The mysterious woman moved her sword and when attacked she would use her body like a sword to block. Every movement, even her defense could kill, her magnificent style was meant only to take another person's life.
Qinyang recognized those techniques she was performing, ”Those are the Blood Seeking Sword techniques?”
”Hooh, you know enough to know what they are with a single look? Impressive.” Wang Ling asked from the side of the door.
”Ah! Good morning, All-Fat—I mean, Sir Wang Ling.” Qinyang bowed as she greeted.
Wang Ling disregarded her obnoxious greeting, ”So, you are awake after three days of sleeping? Overusing your bloodline ignition must have worn you out. Are you, all right? …Is something the matter?” Wang Ling asked noticing how down the usually happy-go-lucky Qinyang was, ”Was it the things I told you back in the Tomb? Are you mourning the deaths of the thousands? Why not sit down and calm yourself?”
”That is… a part of it…” Qinyang said, ”I think the deaths of the younger generations could have been preventable. But what was worst is that I made such ludicrous demands and even yelled at Sir Wang Ling. I just wanted to apologize for doing such a thing. If you do not want to see my face anymore, I can throw myself out of the deck now, if you want to!” Qinyang was disappointed in herself.
Wang Ling gave Qinyang a look from the corner of his eyes and just found her antics amusing, ”What is your age, Qinyang?”
”Ah? Um, sixteen… thousand.”
”That is quite old, but still no older than me or anyone in this ship. In my eyes, you are a kid. This is your first time coming to the outside of your world, correct? That means that you are inexperienced and you will learn with time. You act less mature than the others, which means you will grow. You are 16,000 years of age, but in my eyes, you are no older than 16 and for someone as young as you, making mistakes are normal. Unless it doesn't kill you or your companions, then it is all good.”
