Chapter: 1235 (1/2)

AST 1235 – Tian Jiange’s Decision, Saint Child Invitation, Rejection

Because the Golden Ni Lion had used the low grade Sacred Beast Pill, it was now considered Qing Sha’s tamed beast now. The huge Golden Ni Lion affectionately circled around Qing Sha.

Qing Sha happily reached out with her hand to touch its head. Demonic beasts which were this strong all had scale like fur.

“Thank you father!” Qing Shui turned back to look at Qing Shui as happily said.

“Silly lass. Is there a need to stand on ceremony with father? Come, let’s go have our meal.” Seeing that Qing Sha was happy, Qing Shui felt happy as well. Happiness was something which could be spread around.

Qing Shui gave Qing Sha some medicinal pills meant for demonic beasts as well as the crimson pellet in the Nine-Headed Moon Wolf’s core. This was something good and it could be used to improve the demonic beast’s bloodline. It would be extremely helpful for the time when the demonic beast went through a blood awakening.

…

When it was close to noon, Tian Jiange came by. When he saw Qing Shui, he was very happy. After a few polite exchange, he went straight to the point. “My elder brother has gone to meet with Saint Child. The latter wants to have a talk with you.”

Qing Shui knew that this day would happen, but he hadn’t expected it to come so quickly. He had initially thought that the Saint Child would only come to look for him after some time. He hadn’t expected that the Saint Child would directly say that he wanted to meet him.

“Oh? He wants to meet me? Then let him come here then.” Qing Shui said without a care. Right now, the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant had already become stronger and even if Qing Shui had to fight with the Saint Child, it might prove to be useful.

Tian Jiange’s eyes lit up, “He wants you to meet him at his place.”

Tian Jiange smiled after saying this. His smile had an indescribable emotion, as if he felt a little helpless.

“Elder Brother, what’s wrong?” When Qing Shui saw Tian Jiange’s expression, he knew that the latter must definitely be feeling helpless.

“Saint Child had wanted to get someone to come. I got my elder brother to go look for him, and he promised to do so. However, Saint Child wants you to go look for him and for you to treat his brother.

“Brother, are you afraid of Saint Child and Saint Child Band?” Qing Shui asked.

“I’m not afraid. No matter how arrogant the Saint Child Band is, they wouldn’t dare to do anything to me. It’ll be fine if there are no life-threatening situations between us. However, it’s different for you. Moreover, you let Fu Yanting’s life be threatened. If you don’t treat him, that person won’t let you off. No one would be able to hold him back either.” Tian Jiange said helplessly.

“Brother, did you elder brother tell you this?” Qing Shui smiled and asked.

“That’s right. it’s because my brother knows well what kind of a person Saint Child is. Qing Shui, listen to me for once. Right now, we don’t have sufficient powers to go against that person. Even my elder brother would only be able to be on the receiving end.”

“Brother, you still haven’t walked out of those shackles that bind you down. If you don’t get rid of them, you’ll never be able to break through the barriers. You’ll just be like a frog in the well, and the well would be the shackles that tie you down.” Qing Shui sighed and said.

Qing Shui could understand Tian Jiange’s view. He had similar views previously. If he hadn’t gained the ancient legacy, he would submit to his fate as well and would feel that there would be some people who were unsurpassable existences. However, it was different now. He wasn’t afraid of anyone. He just needed time.

“I understand that but the gap between them and I is far too big. I’m just afraid that something will happen to you. Maybe we should just bear with it a little longer?” Tian Jiange said helplessly.

“I know you’re saying this for my own good. However, for cultivators, there are somethings which we cannot shrink back on. Brother, I hope you can get rid of these shackles. Otherwise, in your future cultivation, you’ll end up restricting yourself one day. You must push forth even when there’s difficulty. Otherwise, when you come across a bottleneck in the future, you’ll lose the determination to break through that bottleneck. Your subconscious would feel that you won’t be able to break through it. It’s just like asking you right now if you feel you can attain a breakthrough to the False God realm.” Qing Shui smiled and looked at Tian Jiange.

Qing Shui was testing him. If Tian Jiange couldn’t even get past this stage, it would probably be difficult for him to even become a Grade Five State Master in the future.

Tian Jiange’s brows knitted tightly. The impression that his elder brother gave him was far too powerful. How could he face someone whom even his elder brother had reservations for? Although he understood what Qing Shui said, it was very hard to put into practice. This was akin to an ordinary person facing against a group of tigers and lions. How was the person supposed to fight?

“If a person wishes to become strong, he must have a strong heart.” Qing Shui continued.

Tian Jiange’s frown became even deeper and there was a fierce struggle in his bright eyes. His elder brother was a very powerful and since a young age he had left an unsurpassable impression on him that was very hard to remove. How could it be so simple to be forcibly removing it now?

“Brother, I have my trust in you. This time around, I’ll face it with you together.” After a very long time, Tian Jiange spoke with certainty. Although it was a little rough, his tone was still very determined.

“Alright. Don’t worry, it’ll be fine. In the future, you’ll learn how right your decision today is.” Qing Shui smiled and said.

It was better to strike the metal when it was hot. In order to let Tian Jiange gain faith in his abilities, he gave him a drop of the Spring of Life. He knew that Tian Jiange’s character could be trusted and thus he wasn’t afraid that the latter would betray him. Moreover, Qing Shui wasn’t afraid either. He was actually helping Tian Jiange.

Qing Shui had gained a tremendous benefit from the Nine Heavens Golden Pellet that Tian Jiange had given him. Therefore, Qing Shui willingly shared with Tian Jiange some of his own things.

Moreover, Tian Jiange was his friend. In the future, they could help each other out. When the time comes, Tian Jiange could become a leader of an area and he could bring Qing Shui a lot of help. Qing Shui liked Tian Jiange’s character. He was a person with principles, righteousness, and he values relationships.

After Tian Jiange took the Spring of Life, his strength, the of his functions body and his potential all improved tremendously. He looked at Qing Shui in surprise. He had already gotten a lot of benefits from Qing Shui. Could a person who had so many Heavenly and Earthly treasures come from an ordinary background? He trusted Qing Shui as well. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have made the decision he just did.

He had a strange feeling that there was nothing which Qing Shui couldn’t accomplish.
