Chapter: 716 (2/2)

It seemed like later on, the Strengthening Pills for the remaining few meridians would be unlocked. The Ren Meridian had control over one’s strength, in other words, their physical power. Qing Shui knew quite a lot about the Eight Extra Vessels. As for the Governing Vessel, it was used to control and practice Qi. For example, once the Governing Vessel, Qing Shui’s Primordial Flames attacks would similarly get stronger.

If his Primordial Flame’s strength was to multiply by several times, its strength would definitely be terrifying….. Unfortunately, as soon as he thought about the ingredients and medicinal herbs needed for Ren Meridian Prescription, Qing Shui felt defeated. He had no choice but to look for and slowly accumulate them.

……

Qing Shui woke up really early on the next day. He has been feeling particularly energetic for the past two days. The main reason for it was because of ‘Thunder God’. After all, anyone would be happy if their strength was to be doubled. They would even smile in their dreams when they were sleeping.

Morning practice!

Nature Energy!

Taichi Fist!

Immovable Mountains!

Pu!

When Qing Shui used the Immovable Mountain, it surprisingly broke through on its own. The Immovable Mountain which has halted in progression for a considerably long time has actually broken through at this moment.

Qing Shui managed to figure out the reason behind it right away. This was somehow related to the ‘Thunder God’. With the Thunder God, Qing Shui felt a lot more confident than before. Even the aura he released had become a lot stronger. This kind of confidence was precisely what was needed for Immovable Mountain, to keep calm in even the most dangerous situation and take in everything, an aura which could stand up against everything.

Good things indeed come in pairs. Qing Shui calmed his mind and patiently practiced his Taichi Fist. He was feeling so joyful, even to the point he even felt a slight improvement in his Taichi Fist.

“After a while, Hai Dongqing walked out. It had merely been a night and her hand was no longer a hindrance. It turned out that Qing Shui’s Golden Medicinal Salve was still quite effective. With the strength of a Martial Saint as a boost, it helped the injury to recover at an unusually fast rate.

“Wake up, is your hand ok already?” Qing Shui saw that the skin on Hai Dongqing’s hand was already smooth and soft. There was only a faint trace of a scar, that should heal after a short period of time.

“It’s fine already.”

“See, everything is fine now.” Hai Dongqing slowly walked towards him and extended her hand to Qing Shui with a smile.

Qing Shui already knew at the moment she confessed her feelings to him. He gently grabbed her snow white hands and looked at the one inch pink scar on her palm and backhand. That was a scar left behind by a dagger.

And she got that all because of him. Qing Shui gently fondled the scar while Hai Dongqing trembled because of the numbness and the wonderful feeling that she felt in her heart.

She gently took a step forward. Now, she was basically already really close to Qing Shui. A delicate fragrance which resembled that of an orchid went into Qing Shui’s nose.

Hai Dongqing lowered her head slightly and allowed Qing Shui to grab one of her hands as he wished. She really wanted to hug Qing Shui at the moment, but after taking the first step forward, she found it really hard to take the second step. The last time he hugged her was because they were in that kind of circumstance. In fact, it was a subconscious act of hers, it was because she was deeply moved by him and thanked him a lot.

This time however, she wasn’t able to do anything. Her heart was beating really fast and she didn’t dare to look at Qing Shui.

Qing Shui smiled. He never thought that such a beautiful girl like her would also have this side. He gently held her in his embrace. At this moment, Qing Shui felt really calm. He didn’t have the slightest bit of sexual intention. It was a mutual feeling they shared with each other.

Hai Dongqing hugged Qing Shui tightly. Her entire body also loosened up. The two didn’t say anything. They only hugged each other quietly while feeling each other’s heartbeat.

“What do you like about me?” Qing Shui was confused. Prior to this, she has said that she wasn’t interested in arrogant children.

“I don’t know… Suddenly, I feel really, really comfortable with you. I enjoy the feeling of having you by my side. It’s something really hard to describe… It’s my first time feeling this way with a man… I like talking to you… Even if we’re to only stay together and not talk……” Hai Dongqing said gently at a very small volume.

It’s affection!

The feeling she had for him was only just affection. Wasn’t it a bit too late for her to experience this for the first time? She was already so old, yet this was her first time having good feelings for someone of the opposite gender……

It’s coldness……

After the two had their breakfast, Hai Dongqing told Qing Shui with a smile: “Let me bring you to Ice Statue City to have a look around. That place is beautiful.”

Qing Shui nodded with a smile.

Ice Statue City was a beautiful spot in Cold Ice City. It was an ice world; ice trees, ice houses, everything was made of ice. There were a lot of people moving back and forth in that city because they enjoyed watching the scenery there.

After two hours, both Qing Shui and Hai Dongqing arrived at Ice Sculpture City.

The first thing that entered Qing Shui’s sight was a door and castle wall. This was a small city. The Ice Sculpture City was also known as Ice City. This place was a subsidiary city in Cold Ice City. It was really similar to Qing’s Village in Hundred Miles City. It was considered a second-grade city.

There were guards in front of the castle door. At the moment when they saw Hai Clan’s cart, they bowed down their heads to greet them with an unusually respectful look. Prior to this, Hai Clan has always been treated this way. Ever since that happened, Hai Clan’s name was passed on throughout the entire Cold Ice City within one night.

At present, Hai Clan was a formidable clan. Even though Luo Clan and Du Clan had fallen, there would quickly be other clans to replace them. But no matter what, they would never be comparable to Hai Clan in terms of strength.

It wouldn’t matter even if Qing Shui left. As long as he was alive, no one would dare to lay hands on Hai Clan for the time being.
