Chapter 594 (2/2)

“There is no need to be courteous since I promised you the last time. I would of course do it, unless I lacked the strength.” Nian Lao happily smiled and walked to Yu Ruyan’s side with Qing Shui.

“Qing Shui, Lady Duanmu has no malicious intents. I know her personality very well, many of the people in the Central Continent knows it as well. She is a person that will never forget any kindness shown to her. You saved her life once, you can put down all the worries you have.” Nian Lao smiled at Qing Shui.

“I know that she does not have any malicious intents, a small character like me and the Qing Clan would not even enter her eyes. Just that, I don’t like this feeling.” Qing Shui laughed at himself.

“Is Sir Qing still angry at me?” Yu Ruyan looked at this youth then looked at her daughter beside her.

“No, it is just me being small-minded, sorry.” Qing Shui laughed. Actually, Qing Shui was not angry, he just did not like being pitied by these big clans. Qing Shui felt that Yu Ruyan was pitying the Qing Clan.

From her words, you could tell what kind of person Yu Ruyan was, she had not expected this man to be so sensitive, to the point when it seemed like he was petty!

Actually, there were no problems, with the appearance of Nian Lao, the matter got resolved in an even more peaceful manner. Qing Shui smiled at Qing Yi and said “Mother, sorry, I caused you to be trapped in the middle.”

“You smelly brat, you scared me.” Qing Yi smiled as she rubbed Qing Shui’s head, then everyone headed towards the biggest living room in the Qing Clan.

“Thank you!”

While they were walking, Duanmu Lingshuang turned her head and said to Qing Shui, who was not far away.

“I never thought that you would return, do you still remember the promise you made?” Qing Shui teased her.

Duanmu Lingshuang was surprised. She then thought about the situation in Flowerfruit Mountain. Although the time they spent interacting with each other was short, but she would not forget that promise for as long as she lived.

“Weren’t you just joking?” Duanmu Lingshuang said unnaturally.

“Lingshuang, what did you promised? The promises you made should be fulfilled.” Yu Ruyan smiled, looking at Duanmu Lingshuang and Qing Shui.

“Nothing……” Duanmu Lingshuang eyes were flustered, then she gave Qing Shui a complex look.

“I was just joking with her, she said she would give me the big bird that she rode on.” Qing Shui said playfully.

“That could be given to you.” Yu Ruyan smiled as she walked.

“Oh, I was just joking, I have one already, I just did not expect the young miss to be so petty, and could not bear to give it up.” Qing Shui said clearly as he carried Qing Yin, who had run over.

Duanmu Lingshuang was speechless and could only remain quiet, as long as Qing Shui did not speak of that matter, then it would be fine. Actually, she did not know that even if she wanted to say it, Qing Shui would not be willing to. He had decided not to get involved with any more women.

After they entered the great hall, Yu Ruyan took out a bottle the size of a baby’s fist “This if for you, consider it a token of my appreciation.”

Qing Shui felt that the other people of the Qing Clan had probably already accepted her gifts. He suspiciously looked at that bottle and asked “What does this do?”

“Take it, Qing Shui. This is the ‘Dew of the Raining Star Flower’, it can clear the spirit, cleanse the bones and marrows, and strengthen blood vessels.

Qing Shui smiled as he received it. Regardless of the situation, this was a token of their appreciation. Furthermore, this woman was very strong and she addressed his mother as a sister. When put this way, if would cause anyone who wanted to take actions against the Qing Clan to have misgivings.

“Thank you!”

Qing Shui could not bring himself to call her Aunt Yu, neither did he have the intentions to. She seemed so young, it would feel weird to call her that. In his past life, Qing Shui was not good at flattery or currying favor with someone, it was still the same now.

The two Martial Saints from the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord had also arrived. Qing Shui respectfully gave them a bow “In the future, the Qing Clan will have to rely on you two elders.”

The two Martial Saints quickly returned his greetings “As long as we are alive, we will not let harm befall the Qing Clan.”

Of the two old men, one was called Wu Chengyi, the other was called Hong Luansong. They were both Grade Four Martial Saints, but they were still a distance away from the Great Perfection Stage.

At the same time, Qing Shui also noticed that Wu Chengyi and Hong Luansong had a respectful expression when they saw Yu Ruyan, his felt relief in his heart.

Now that Qing Shui was back, the two Martial Saints had already brought their families here for a month, and explained everything to him. Qing Shui let loose a sigh of relief, now there were two more Martial Saints protecting the clan.

Three days later, Yu Ruyan and Duanmu Lingshuang left. In these three days, Qing Shui barely interacted with them. He would only interact with them when there was a meal together and everyone chatted.

However, they knew that Qing Shui would be heading towards the Central Continent very soon, they repeatedly reminded Qing Shui to visit the Duanmu Clan after he arrived in the Central Continent!

“Nian Lao, are you leaving as well? How about you leave after the end of the year? Then we can go together.” After a few more days, Nian Lao wanted to return to the Central Continent but Qing Shui tried to get him to stay.

Qing Shui felt particularly grateful to this old man. Although he did not make a move but he did not reveal the things he did for Qing Shui. If Yu Ruyan did not see it, then he probably would not have known that he have been helping him from the dark.

“I left my clan for about half a year already, it is time to go back. When you come to the Central Continent, we can meet again.” Nian Lao said in a straightforward manner.

Qing Shui saw that he was determined, thus he rode his Fire Bird to see him off. They flew a few thousand miles away before he stopped, then watched as the golden rosefinch disappeared into the horizon.

After he arrived back, half the morning had already passed. Qing Shui and the two Martial Saints, Elder Wu and Elder Hong, went to the secret chambers. Qing Shui was used to calling them elders.

He first gave each of them a Small Revitalizing Pellet. The strength of the two elders were about 700 countries, but that didn’t include their techniques. At first, Qing Shui thought that the higher the cultivation, the stronger the pill. This thought was indeed correct, but there was a limit. A King Grade medicinal pill could only increase one’s strength by a maximum of five countries.
