Chapter 615 (1/2)

AST 615 – Towards the Seven Stars Country Once Again, Golden Light Eagle

Qing Shui was well aware of the importance which the last sentence held – the Duanmu Clan couldn’t compare with the Village of Longevity!

He had originally thought that the Seven Stars Country was not a very powerful existence. Now it seemed like the trip to Di Clan might not be that smooth of a ride. No matter for what reason it was, for the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord to be eliminated by Qing Shui was a disgrace in itself. Since it was one of the Seven Stars,.

Lady Duanmu nodded with a smile when she saw Qing Shui’s expression. She didn’t really say anything else, but the look of admiration in her eyes was visible.

“Thank you, senior!” Qing Shui expressed his sincere gratitude to Lady Duanmu.

“You’re welcome. If we were going to be courteous, I would have to thank you every single day. It’s late now, so you should leave tomorrow instead. Remember to send a letter to the Duanmu Clan if anything happens.” Yu Ruyan told Qing Shui with a smile.

….

In the Realm of Violet Jade Immortal, Qing Shui was drawing the ‘Hundred Forms of the Tiger’. He was still currently at the level of ‘drawing flesh and blood’, but he had been making progressive improvements.

He had spent a lot of time observing the manner of the portrayed Tiger Form. He felt like he had gained a new insight to his Tiger Form cultivation without even realizing it. Although, to have any breakthroughs on Tiger Form now, was as difficult as ascending the heavens.

He didn’t make much progress on talisman drawing either, so he figured he might as well stop learning to draw new talismans. Other than spending most of his time on drawing the ‘Hundred Forms of the Tiger’, he spent the rest of his time drawing random talismans.

He felt that he’d already reached a bottleneck at Grade Four Heavenly Talismans. He currently placed his hopes on drawing this ‘Hundred Forms of the Tiger’. He had a feeling that breaking through the level of drawing flesh and blood should be able to bring his talisman drawing to another level as well.

….

“Be careful on your journey, and remember what I’ve told you,” Lady Duanmu and Yu Ruyan reminded Qing Shui.

“Take care of yourself, Sister Chen!”

“You too!”

Duanmu Lingshuang bidded farewell to Di Chen and Qing Shui.

“Take care of yourself senior.” Qing Shui chuckled. He then climbed on Fire Bird with Di Chen, waved goodbye, and quickly disappeared out of their sight.

“Lingshuang, he’s gone.” Yu Ruyan murmured softly to her daughter.

“Yes.” Duanmu Lingshuang looked at Yu Ruyan.

“Are you sad?”

“Why do I have to be sad?” Duanmu Lingshuang asked while looking at Yu Ruyan.

“Haven’t you noticed how much you’ve changed? Lass, perhaps you haven’t realized it, but you will very soon. When that time comes, you must tell mother if you wish to discuss about it with me.” Yu Ruyan held Duanmu Lingshuang’s hand as they started walking back.

“If that day comes, I will definitely do that,” Duanmu Lingshuang said with a mischievous smile as she hugged Yu Ruyan’s arm. Yu Ruyan was the only one who could see her occasional childish side and her wintry smile.

….

Qing Shui’s Fire Bird steadily flew over Duanmu City at a high speed!

The Dongguo Clan of the Duanmu City!

“Third Master, that male and female pair from the Duanmu Clan have already left. They’re flying towards the northeast direction as we speak.” A youth quickly ran to a courtyard and reported this to Third Master Dongguo.

“Alright, I got it,” a smile appeared on the old Third Master Dongguo’s face. That smile gradually turned into a sinister grin, and then into an evil laugh.

Screech!

A clear cry rang out as an enormous gold sparkling eagle appeared in the sky.

A Golden Light Eagle!

Its entire body was covered by golden feathers and had a wingspan greater than thirty metres. This type of demonic beast was a Grade One Martial Saint, but it had an exceptional ability of flight.

“Brats, no one can ever escape from the clutches of I, the Third Master!” Third Master Dongguo mumbled to himself.

Just then, a middle aged man who looked especially wretched appeared. His eyes were as pitch black as a mouse, he was hairy, he had a flat nose and thick lips. He walked to the side of the Third Master and bowed, “Third Master, are you sure that you want to lay a finger on that kid?”

“Shang Jiu, you think that brat shouldn’t be touched?” Third Master Dongguo looked at the man who had the wretched appearance. He seemed to highly regard this man’s opinion. He would ask for his opinion even if he had already made his decision,.

“Third Master, there will be no issues if you aren’t concerned about the Duanmu Clan.”

“What if I am concerned?” If Third Master couldn’t be concerned, then he naturally wouldn’t need to be. If he was powerful enough, he would’ve already snatched those girls from the Duanmu Clan long ago.

“If Third Master can take care of this cleanly without leaving any evidence, then they can’t do anything about it. Even the Duanmu Clan wouldn’t rashly offend the Dongguo Clan due to it’s relationship between the other clans. Furthermore, they aren’t going to come to us if this gets handled properly. What could they do even if they came to us? Neither the live nor the dead bodies of those people would be found.”
