Chapter 15 Lan Clan’s Lan Yan`Er.
Ancient Strengthening Technique: Chapter 15 – Lan Clan’s Lan Yan`Er
“Lan Yan`er?”
The name was familiar to Qing Shui, memories surged in his mind as he attempted to associate this name with reference to his recollections. A picture of a slender and beautiful young lady; a bright pair of eyes, with a elegant demeanour, adorned with a dainty mouth and dimples in her cheeks. A perfect picture of loveliness, akin to the budding beauty of a young rose, appeared in his mind.
Despite her looks, she was an inordinately proud person. The reason why Qing Shui found her name familiar was that, they were both 15 years old, yet one was a genius capable of engendering envy while the other was known by everyone in the region to be a trash. Qing Shui had only met her by chance, and had remembered her because of her reputation. She was reputed to be one of the top few heaven defying geniuses in the region. Her talent was only preceded by Qing Clan’s genius, Qing You! And thus, she was the pride of the Lan Clan.
The Lan Clan is one of the biggest clans in the Qing Village, it could be considered the next largest clan, second only to the Qing Clan. In terms of talent, the 3rd generations of the Lan Clan was even a cut higher when compared to the Qing Clan. After all, the Qing Clan don’t really have that much 3rd generation disciples.
The Lan Clan had always wanted to replace the Qing Clan as Village’s protector, changing the name of the village to the Lan Village, so they spared no efforts to painstakingly nurture their 3rd generation disciples because they were the one who carried the hopes and ambitions of their clan.
“Bei Bei, is Qing Hu’s injuries very grievous?” Qing Shui asked concernedly, with a frantic tone in his voice.
“Not that grevious.. he only suffered external injuries; bruises to his face and body. After he lost the fight, he didn’t dare to show his face and chose to hide in his room to avoid embarrassment.” Qing Bei giggled slightly as she thought of Qing Hu’s actions.
“Still laughing? Why are you laughing?” Qing Shui questioned, in reality, after ascertaining the situation, Qing Shui also felt it was kinda funny, hiding to avoid embarrassment because he got beaten up.. However, losing to Lan Yan`er could still be forgiven, as it was somewhat expected.
Qing Bei suppressed her laughter, her exquisite face revealed an expression of abashedness, this made Qing Shui felt slightly confused but he soon knew the reason why.
“Brother said he had fallen in love with Lan Yan`er” Qing Bei groaned. Qing Shui felt very hilarious at the way this little cutie sighed. After all, in Kyushu, people tend to mature earlier, at 16, one could be considered an adult, and could marry and give birth.
“Because he got beaten up, he fell in love?” Qing Shui was slightly bewildered.
“Hmm, it seems that Qing Hu still have not got over that little brat?” Qing Shui knitted his brow and mused lightly.
This time round, it was Qing Bei’s turn to be bewildered.
“Shui gege, you are the same age as Lan Yan`er, why do you call her little brat? It feels weird, as if you were older than her.” Qing Bei look at the always indifferent Qing Shui as she asked.
After his body transformation, Qing Shui’s personality also underwent a huge change, after all, he was an adult, only at that time his body frame was small. It was only after he could cultivate the Ancient Strengthening Technique that he stopped being so despondent. So from young, the Qing Shui that Qing Bei knew had always been indifferent and confident. At the very least, this was what Qing Bei knew of Qing Shui’s personality.
After know that this matter was not so serious, all the tension palpably eased from Qing Shui and he breathed a sigh of relief. Qing Shui knew long ago that Qing Hu was in love with Lan Yan`er, As a descendant of a large and luxurious clan, despite the fact that Qing Hu was only 14, he already knew something about the feelings between man & woman, and the passion experienced when shared in joint union.
Although Qing Hu was young, he had a very definite mindset and knew what he wanted, when he first started to court Lan Yan`er, he was rejected many times. After all, a girl matures slightly earlier and plus the fact that she was older than Qing Hu by a year. In Lan Yan`er eyes, Qing Hu was only a little kid, it was only after she got pestered almost to the point of insanity, she decided to give Qing Hu an ultimatum.
