Chapter: 1257 (1/2)

AST 1257 – Copper Body, Shadow Body

In the end, Chen Fuding fled along with his people. From the beginning to the end, he didn’t understand how today’s outcome turned out like this. Even Hu Yiya didn’t really quite get it, but she knew that it definitely had something to do with Qing Shui.

“Thank you, Qing Shui!” Hu Yiya expressed her sincere gratitude to Qing Shui.

“What are you thanking me for? You guys are the one who chased them away with your fists. I didn’t do anything.” Qing Shui smiled.

“It’s fine if you don’t want to admit it, as long as I know what is going on in my heart. Come, I’ll treat you to some wine. Think of it as a welcome party for you.” Hu Yiya said proudly.

Qing Shui didn’t decline it either. He didn’t know anyone here and Hu Yiya was considered an acquaintance. Moreover, her clan seemed to be quite powerful. If he went with her, he’d probably find out about the Lotus Sect. There’d at least be some clues!

Thinking up to this point, Qing Shui relaxed a little. They found a restaurant nearby and Qing Shui saw that they seemed to be in very high spirits. Perhaps it was due to the victory earlier, so he didn’t want to be a party pooper either.

“Brother Qing, let me give a toast to you!” Bei Gele happily held his cup of wine towards Qing Shui.

Both Hu Yiya and Bei Gele could guess that today’s outcome was due to Qing Shui’s help in the background. The rest could have guessed it, but they didn’t really give it careful thought.

“Sister Ya, I’d like to get some information from you.” Qing Shui asked Hu Yiya while eating.

“What is it? There’s no need to be so polite.”

“You know the Lotus Sect?” Qing Shui thought about it after thinking. He was powerful enough now, so naturally, he didn’t have to worry about some other problems.

“The Lotus Sect?” Hu Yiya looked at Qing Shui with her eyebrows knitted together.

“That’s right.” Although Qing Shui saw Hu Yiya’s frown, he still had a hunch that she’d know something about it.

“The Lotus Sect is the sacred land of the Divine Might Dynasty. Although it didn’t seem like an existence of Grade Four strength, they’ve stood aloof all this time. But legend has it their strength isn’t any inferior to dynasties of Grade Four strength.” Hu Yiya looked at Qing Shui.

Qing Shui was a little surprised yet thought it was normal at the same time. He had heard of some hidden powers in the West Oxhe Continent and their rumored strength was inaccurate because it was outdated information since many years ago.

“I have come to the Divine Might Dynasty this time because I wish to find someone at the Lotus Sect.” Qing Shui explained his objective of coming here.

“The Lotus Sect is completely made up of women that stand aloof from the worldly affairs.” Hu Yiya looked at Qing Shui suspiciously. It wasn’t like she suspected Qing Shui, she was just wondering who he was looking for.

“Are you familiar with the Lotus Sect?”

“My sister is part of the Lotus Sect, so I know a little about them.” Hu Yiya was a little proud of herself for saying that. It was evident that the Lotus Sect was at a quite decent position among the Divine Might Dynasty.

“Oh, that’s even better. Do you know the location of the Lotus Sect?”

“I don’t!” Hu Yiya shook her head before speaking again. “I heard that the Lotus Sect has many members, yet not many know about the whereabouts of the Lotus Sect.”

“Are you able to get in touch with your elder sister?” Qing Shui was a little gloomy. But since her sister was from the Lotus Sect, things would be easier for him.

“Sister is the one who gets in touch with us, none of us are able to get in touch with her.” Hu Yiya was slightly sad when she explained this.

“Is she coming back anytime soon then?” Qing Shui realized that things might not be going as easy as he thought it would be.

“She usually comes back at the end of the year, but sometimes she doesn’t return at all. It’s already winter now, why don’t you come to my place and wait for her return?” Hu Yiya offered after thinking for a moment.

Qing Shui didn’t have any better ideas either right now. Hu Yiya’s elder sister was from the Lotus Sect. Even so, not even Hu Yiya knew much about the Lotus Sect’s location much less the others.

“In that case, I’ll think of something else. I’ll visit you at the end of the year.”

“Well then, you still need to come to my place so you know how to get there next time. I’ll introduce you to my clan, the people of my clan are very welcoming towards guests.” Hu Yiya said happily.

Qing Shui didn’t decline this time. Bei Gele and the rest had already left so Qing Shui and Hu Yiya made their way towards the Hu Residence.

The Hu Clan was a major clan in this area and had quite a number of State Masters among them. Qing Shui knew all this through Hu Yiya. In these great clans, it wasn’t too difficult to attain the State Master grade yet only a handful of children was able to achieve it.

However, from Grade Four State Master onwards, the effects of clan inheritance would be greatly reduced and improving wouldn’t be as fast as before and it might even be at a standstill.

The starting point of the Grade Four State Master was a great dividing range itself, followed by 2,000 suns, 3,000 suns, and 4,000 suns. The 3,000 suns itself was already a challenging stage.

It was very, very difficult to breakthrough after reaching 3,000 suns.

Hu Yiya was bringing Qing Shui back to her direct clan. The Hu Clan was a large clan as there were too many people in it.

Hu Yiya was the youngest in her family. Her father wasn’t really that old of age and was a refined man. Although he wasn’t tall and strongly built, he was brimming with vital energy that was akin to Nature Energy on him.

Not only that, he also had a decent strength of nearly 2,000 suns.

The old man was very courteous. He seemed to be particularly fond of his youngest daughter. With Hu Yiya beside him, they didn’t seem stiff like those other aristocrat clans. The pair of father and daughter got along very well together. Hu Yiya was just like a little girl to him. This made Qing Shui have a great impression on the old man.

“You are Little Ya’s friend, then that means you are part of us. Make yourself at home, no need to be shy if you need anything.” The old man said warmly.

“Thank you, uncle!”
