Chapter 629 (1/2)
AST 629 – A fallacy, heading to the Medical Prescription Chamber again
The man was amazed!
Not only was Di Qing a Martial Saint, even Di Chen was one as well. When he came to ‘visit’ her a few days ago, she was not a Martial Saint. Yet now she was one and was even a high level Grade One Martial Saint.
He knew that Qing’er’s breakthrough was possible because of the young man’s medicinal pills and fruits. Naturally, Chen’er’s breakthrough must also be because to him. This was why he did not doubt the truth in the young man’s words.
“Great. If that is possible, everything should work out fine.” the man looked really happy.
“So when will both of you go over to the Di Residence? There is some distance to our residence so it might be a little difficult for everyone if anything really happened.” Thinking for a moment, the man said slowly.
“We’ll go over in a couple of days. We still have some matters at hand right now.” Qing Shui smiled looking at Di Chen.
“Alright. Qing Shui, thank you.” the man thanked him with a faint smile.
This time, Qing Shui did not reject his gratitude. The man did not specify why he was thanking Qing Shui. He had helped Di Qing and with the situation just now. Qing Shui smiled and did not say anything more.
“We will leave first. We hope to see you soon.” the man smiled and bid them farewell.
“Dad, both of you can go back first. I want to stay here for a few days.” Di Qing chuckled.
The man nodded indulgently, then signalled to Qing Shui and Di Chen that he was leaving. Qing Shui, Di Chen and Di Qing sent both of them to the stairway and returned to their room.
“Sis!” Di Qing called Di Chen after their father and brother had left.
“What’s the matter?” Di Chen asked softly.
“Will you blame me? “ Di Qing asked her gently.
“What do I blame you for?” Di Chen questioned, smiling.
“Oh. That’s fine then.” Di Qing laughed and held on to Di Chen’s hand. She also gave Qing Shui a grateful look. Her expression was very alluring.
“So, he is your elder brother?” Qing Shui asked casually.
“Yup, he is more handsome than you, right?” Di Qing laughed looking over to Qing Shui.
Qing Shui coughed. Even though Qing Shui was well aware that he was not as good-looking. It made him feel a little awkward being teased like that.
“Hehe. Bad sport. You’re not bad, really. Otherwise my sister wouldn’t have fall for you. You’re eviler than my brother.” Di Qing gave a crisp, attractive laugh. She pulled Di Chen into the room.
Qing Shui only got to see today that Di Qing had a cute side to her. He recalled the first time when he met her and they fought. She had an aura of transcendence, was so beautiful that it was difficult to look straight at her and also seemed hard to approach. Now that Qing Shui has grown stronger, he gradually felt closer to her.
Maybe it was because her father and elder brother were around, so he actually got to see such a side of that mature and graceful beauty. He took it as a form of enjoyment.
“I’m going out. Don’t wait for me during lunch.” Qing Shui prepared to leave as he informed the two ladies.
“Sure, okay.” Di Chen answered with a smile, nodding her head.
Leaving Four Seas Inn, Qing Shui headed in the direction of the Medical Prescription Chamber. Qing Shui decided to look for Yuan Su as soon as he could because they were heading to the Di Residence soon. He also hoped to get a few special alchemy recipes from her; any recipe that could boost one’s strength, albeit even temporarily.
Actually, Qing Shui was not that worried about the promise that he gave to that man from the Di Clan. He could easily fulfill that promise using his Emperor’s Qi, Fiery Golden Eyes and Heavenly Talisman. He had the confidence that he could close the gap between that man and the old demon, and even help him become stronger than that old demon.
“Look at that. That’s the man who is involved with the second daughter of the Di Clan. He’s also the one that attacked Sima Huoyu.”
Qing Shui heard a nonchalant voice. He frowned in annoyance and turned towards its direction. He saw three men. They were about Di Fentian’s age and could still be considered young. The three of them were clothed in tar-black full-bodied clothes, appearing handsome and cold. They stood out in the crowd like cranes among chickens.
Qing Shui could feel a faint malevolence from their smiles.
Qing Shui’s spiritual sense was very sharp. He could sense an air of evil energy seeping from the men. The Nature Energy in his body automatically activated and immediately flowed through his entire body.
Poison!
Qing Shui knew now that the three men must be covered in poison. Obviously, they were not poisoned. Rather, they probably carried poisons all over their body so that they could use them at any moment.
“Let’s avoid them. Move quickly. Those people are from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect.”
“That’s right. Otherwise you might die without even knowing how.”
……
“So they’re from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect.” Qing Shui knitted his brows. Everyone is afraid of the word ‘poison’ . Even people who are familiar with the use of poisons fear poisons that they have no knowledge of and poisons made by others. Just as there are people with different grades of cultivation, there are also differences in the proficiency of poison users.
In the World of the Nine Continents, the first thing that poison users learn is Poison Physiology. It involves the use of poison to improve one’s body’s ability to resist poisons. They can only deal with certain poisonous substances and poisons safely after their poison resistance reached a certain level. Since poison users are frequently exposed to various poisons, being a poison masters is one of the most dangerous and lethal professions.
