Chapter: 1277 (2/2)
The male servant had already left.
“My family members want to see you. Are you willing to go meet them?” Fu Rong asked a bit concerned.
“You are a person of the royal clan, aren’t you?” Qing Shui didn’t answer Fu Rong’s question.
“Yes!”
Her surname was Fu, it was already supposed to be the surname which royal clans had. Added on that this was the Imperial City Blacksmith Store, it wasn’t actually sudden for Qing Shui to ask this question.
“Is it that your clan is planning to recruit me in?” Qing Shui asked with a smile.
“I don’t think so. It seems like they have got something which they need your help with. But the reward is something which you will definitely be satisfied with,” Fu Rong said quickly.
“Let’s go, I am also planning to meet the people from royal clan and discuss a few things with them. I wonder, are your clan members are able to decide things for the imperial household?” Qing Shui asked with a smile.
Fu Rong smiled, “Well, they can still do at least that.”
Qing Shui was stunned. It seemed like the little lass held quite a high position within the imperial household. She should be from the main branch of the imperial household. Otherwise, it was impossible that her family members would be able to make decisions for things.
After two hours, Qing Shui looked at the vast garden in front of him which belonged to the imperial household. The land here was really wide. It was also located beside a mountain. A lot of the manors were located on top of it. There were stone stairs along the way. They seemed to extend all the way up to the top of the mountain far away in the distance.
Qing Shui sensed some of the powerful auras around him with his Spiritual Sense. They soared up high into the sky towards the mountain in the distance on a type of Cloud Deer.
It’s very likely that this was a checkpoint for imperial households. There should be a palace within Imperial City. Actually, that place wasn’t actually the actual palace. That place was just made for normal citizens to look at.
Along the way, Qing Shui saw a few guards. They were all powerful warriors. Of course, from his perspective, they were nothing. But when they were left outside in the world, they would be targets for people to admire.
This place was a relatively more hidden and standalone part of a manor. Furthermore, the views here were very unique. They were able to see the majority of the places nearby here. But other places on the other hand, would find it really difficult to notice this place.
There were two guards in front of the entrance. Qing Shui was quite astonished when he saw both of them. The reason being that they both had strength worth a 1,000 suns. Furthermore, they were considerably young. If things about them were to spread out, they would definitely be regarded as prodigies. Yet, they were here guarding an entrance. But considering that this place was the royal clan of Divine Might Dynasty, this was quite a normal sight.
“Uncles, please help me pass a message! I want to meet father. Also, just tell him that Mr. Qing is here.” It’s likely that Fu Rong was very familiar with these two people. She sounded really relaxed talking to them.
“The master is in there, princess, you can just go in straight away,” the man on the left said with a smile.
Fu Rong smiled and nodded. She stepped in along with Qing Shui.
They passed through the courtyard and reached another compound where they saw two slightly old-looking men and a few middle-aged and young men gathered together talking about something.
“Father!”
Fu Rong shouted out joyfully upon seeing the person opposite her looking towards her. An old man in the middle who was wearing a white jade dragon gown smiled and nodded his head.
The man had quite a slender body. The slight bit of white hair which could be seen at the temples of his head made him looked somewhat elegant. He emitted a sort of abundant and dignified aura, giving people the impression that he was extremely noble and graceful.
The man smiled and took two steps forward, “So you are Mr.Qing, you indeed seem like a promising young man.”
Qing Shui smiled as he looked at the slightly old man, “Senior, I reckon you know that I am a member of Heaven Secrets Academy. It’s indeed my pleasure to be able to meet you.”
It’s necessary to mention some words of politeness. Flattery would only work if it was done mutually. The reason why Qing Shui spoke like this was to state his identity clearly.
“Yes, if not, I would have thought of all kinds of methods to draw you in,” the old man who looked slightly old said blatantly.
“I really enjoy talking to someone as big hearted as senior.”
“You flatter me!”
“Senior, why don’t you address me as Qing Shui!”
“Well then, Qing Shui, if you don’t mind, you can address me as Uncle Fu. Old Man Fu sounds fine to me too.”
“Nice to meet you Uncle Fu! Are you not going to introduce the others to me?”
“Alright, come here, this is the person who always follows me and looks after me, Jiang Xia,” said the old man while pointing at another older-looking man whose aura was completely retracted.
“Old Man Jiang, nice to meet you! Uncle Fu doesn’t actually need someone to look after him with his current cultivation. There are very few people who are actually able to stop Uncle Fu.” Qing Shui smiled and responded. He also took the chance to greet the old man.
“Erm, Qing Shui, do you find telling me about my cultivation?” Fu Tongsheng looked at Qing Shui casually.
“As for this, it’s something which I’m still able to sense. Uncle Fu, I reckon that your strength is worth around seven thousand sun.” Qing Shui said with a smile.
“Huh, you are actually able to see through my strength…..” Fu Tongsheng looked at Qing Shui in shock. After that, he noticed that from his viewpoints, Qing Shui’s strength felt really obscure. This made him feel really astonished. In fact, not only him, even Jiang Xia looked at Qing Shui stunned.
“Uncle Fu, why don’t you start off by introducing them to me first? They should be the outstanding younger generations of your bloodline, yes?”
