Chapter: 1127 (2/2)

The demonic beast tamed by Qing Luo was a Shadow Demonic Panther. There were five people in Qing Clan who tamed a Shadow Demonic Panther. Back then, Qing Shui had chosen this type of demonic beast when he first came across one. Although it wasn’t a flying demonic beast, it wouldn’t lose out when compared to one. Demonic beasts like this excelled at sneak attacks and concealing their presence. Additionally, they also had a quick speed.

Qing Yi’s demonic beast was the Bloodhorn Silverhead Demon Ox which Qing Shui had sealed at the very start. The one that she tamed was the smaller one. Although Qing Yi only tamed one, the other one was very attached to the one that she tamed. As a result, it was as if she had tamed the two of them at once.

However, Qing Shui was still a little worried. He let Qingqing tame that bigger male Bloodhorn Silverhead Demon Ox. Anyways, Qingqing spent a lot of time here and tended to stay in Qing Clan often.

Qingqing’s Four-eared Macaque had now grown a little bigger but she was still kept in the dark. Other than Qing Shui, basically no one else knew how powerful the Four-eared Macaque was.

Both Qingqing and Guo Polu were very happy to be able to tame powerful demonic beasts.

Guo Polu was the happiest. This was the greatest opportunity for him. It was just like soaring up with just a single step forth. However, what he didn’t know was that Qingqing’s little monkey was also an absolutely terrifying existence.

Half a day passed by and the entire Qing Clan was filled with happy voices. This was like gaining great success with just one step. Nothing could give them a faster progress. Cang Wuya had continued to stay in Qing Clan all along and of course, he also tamed one demonic beast. This made him so happy that he couldn’t stop smiling. He had always thought of this place as his home.

In the end, everyone in Qing Clan’s third generation had their own powerful demonic beast. However, Qing Shui told them that the safest and best power to rely on was themselves. Although demonic beasts were very powerful as well and were their closest partner who would fight to their death to protect them, there would still be situations where even the demonic beasts wouldn’t be able to save them. Therefore, they still needed to continue to get stronger.

Everyone nodded. They understood this as well. The members of Qing Clan’s third generation were no longer young and they understood this theory. Qing Shui just wanted to reiterate it because he knew that these brothers and sisters of his were very willing to listen to him.

Returning back into the hall, the ladies, aunts, and others went to prepare the meal while Qing Shui took out a few brushes and an ink slab which he had forged in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal. There were also times when he would need brush, ink, and paper. After all, he couldn’t always use the Golden Calligraphy Brush and the Moonstone Ink Slab.

These brushes that Qing Shui had forged also contained some golden extract essence. Qing Shui had a big piece of golden extract essence in his Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal. He also had a moonstone. Therefore, he took reference from his Golden Calligraphy Brush and Moonstone Ink Slab to forge a few pieces to use or to present as gifts. These items were considered very precious.

“Lass, do you like this?” Qing Shui handed a smaller Golden Calligraphy Brush and ink slab to Qing Yan.

“I do! Father is the best!” Qing Yan received the gifts happily and embraced Qing Shui.

Qing Shui took out the same set and handed it to Qing Yin. Qing Ming looked at Qing Shui, “Father, actually, I like to draw as well…”

“How about you draw something for everyone to have a look?” Qing Shui smiled and asked.

“Haha, Father, the Aunties said that the things he drew are things that beg bugs had crawled on[1].” Qing Yan chuckled and said.

Qing Ming looked at Qing Yan angrily and said, “If you go against me again, don’t ask me to take the blame for you in the future.”

Qing Yan covered her mouth and stopped talking. Qing Shui felt especially happy to see his children. He hadn’t expected that they would know about making others take the blame for them. However, he was quite surprised to hear that Qing Ming had taken the blame for Qing Yan before.

What blame could the kids possibly have to take? Qing Shui didn’t ask. It was good for the children to have their own little privacy at times. He took out some beast parchment for them to draw on.

Even Qing Zun and Qing Ming got a share. Qing Yu also made a lot of noise and Qing Shui had to hand her a brush as well. However, Qing Zun and Qing Ming only drew around for fun and it was even more so for Qing Yu. Qing Yu didn’t just draw on the paper, she also got a lot of ink on her clothes.

“Qing Shui, look at the lass. Later on, help her change into clean clothes.” When Huoyun Liu-Li walked in to see Qing Yu’s state, she pinched the lass’ cheeks and said to Qing Shui.

“Haha!” Qing Yu laughed happily. Huoyun Liu-Li’s pinch was just a teasing one.

“The kids are having fun playing around. Later on, I’ll help her change her clothes.”

Both Qing Yan and Qing Yin drew their mothers, Canghai Mingyue and Shi Qingzhuang. Their drawings had a slight hint of the two ladies’ appearances and it was quite good for kids so young to be able to achieve this. However, their drawings were still a far cry from the level of a portrait.

Despite this, their drawings were still quite well done, especially when compared to Qing Zun and Qing Ming, which would make their drawings seem even better.

“Not bad, not bad. You guys must still continue to work hard.” Qing Shui smiled and patted the lasses on their heads.

Suddenly, Qing Shui thought that he should draw these children. It could act as a memento when he left this place. He would be able to take out their drawings and take a look at it when he missed them.

“Come, let Daddy draw a painting of you guys.” Qing Shui had also drawn one in the past for the few ladies but he had seldom done so for the kids. After all, he had always been out and hadn’t been able to do so.

[1] It is said that things that bed bugs crawl on would stink. Probably suggesting that the things that were drawn appeared to be disgusting.
