Chapter: 1224 (1/2)
AST 1224 – I belong to her…… A change in situation
“An arm, an arm of yours.”
Qing Shui found his calm tone very irritating. The Saint Child had made them come over to take an arm of his. Qing Shui was unable to sense the strength of the two old men, hence he wasn’t sure if the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant could beat the enemies.
However, Qing Shui had a bad feeling. The reason being that a lot of people knew that the Golden Yang Wolf was killed by the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant. They should be aware of how strong the Golden Yang Wolf was. Meaning that since they had dared to come today, they didn’t really care about the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant. At the very least, these two elderly men shouldn’t be any weaker than the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant.
As Qing Shui thought up to this point, he felt a bit distressed. He was worried that the two old men would be a lot more powerful than the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant. Hence, today, he would really have to either run away or wait for someone to come save him.
Should he ask Tian Jiange or the Eldest Princess to come and save him?
Which one of them could come and help him solve the danger at hand? The reason being that even if he managed to kill these people today, he still wouldn’t be able to feel at peace. Next time, Saint Child Band would definitely send someone even more powerful.
Now, Qing Shui felt that he did the right thing by pulling off the needle trick at that time.
“Leave now. That way, at least Fu Yanting will still have a chance to live. If not, he will be dying very soon. I wonder if by then, your so called Saint Child will let you guys go,” Qing Shui said calmly.
“What did you say?!”
“I’m asking you whether Fu Yanting’s lifeforce is depleting little by little. If you want him to live, disappear now!” Qing Shui stopped being polite once he saw no good intentions from these people. Since they already weren’t respecting him, why did he still need to put up with them?
“You impudent brat! Do you seriously think that you are truly invincible just because of a demonic beast? Come with us today and cure Prince Fu, if not, we will escort you there. That way, you are bound to taste some bitterness.” The old man in grey gown took a step forward and locked onto Qing Shui with his qi.
“If you guys ever dare to lay hands on me, Fu Yanting will die for sure. By then, you guys will be the ones responsible for it. I am aware that you guys have looked for quite a lot of alchemists and doctors recently. You decide whether to believe it or not,” Qing Shui said in an indifferent tone.
The hands of the old man in the blue gown trembled. The other old man on the other hand, he seemed like he was inquiring with his comrades about it. As Qing Shui saw their expressions, he already knew that there was no need for him to fight today.
Right at this moment, the Eldest Princess came in with a group of people.
“Go, if there is ever a next time when things like this happen again, I won’t mind killing all of you. To think that you guys dare to even lay hands on my man.” The Eldest Princess’ words startled both the old men.
Qing Shui felt puzzled, “I’m her man……”
“Let’s go!”
“Go back and tell him that I look down on him!” the Eldest Princess said in an indifferent tone.
The group of people headed here aggressively, yet left with their tails between their legs. Seeing that they left, the little girl turned around and went into her room. Qing Shui on the other hand, moved his sight to the beautiful woman after looking at the little girl.
Now, it seemed like she has gotten even stronger. This was a hunch. Actually, human intuition was quite a terrifying thing.
“Thank you. To think that as the man I would need to be protected by a woman.” Qing Shui revealed a helpless smile.
“What’s wrong? Are you looking down on women now?” The Eldest Princess looked at Qing Shui with her brows knitted.
“Why would I look down on women? In fact, I respect them. They’re the greatest. Like my mother, she is a woman as well.” Qing Shui never thought that this woman would feel so sensitive about this.
“It seems like you are a chauvinist. I cannot stand this.” The Eldest Princess went up to Qing Shui and showed him a smile.
Her faint yet delicate womanly fragrance rushed into Qing Shui’s nose. As he lifted up his head and saw the face of this woman, it was so close to his own… She was beautiful to the point where his soul itself could potentially be snatched away by it. Her beauty wasn’t the seductive kind of beauty. Contrary to that, she felt more like a fairy, a fairy which had descended to the mortal world.
Compared to Yiye Jiange, her beauty tended more towards the ordinary kind of beauty. However, the noble royal aura on her was very pressuring. Qing Shui had a feeling of reluctance in moving his sight away when he looked at those beautiful eyes of hers. Other than sharing gazes with the women around her, he hardly shared gazes with other people, especially when it was for a long time.
The eyes were the windows into one’s heart. Through a person’s eyes, one would be able to see the fluctuations of their heart. However, Qing Shui was unable to tell how the Eldest Princess was feeling. In addition to that, there was also such thing as sharing gazes with each other’s eyes. It felt just like two hearts colliding with each other.
