AST 1552 - Control, Qing Shui’s Magnificent Ability
Qing Shui was getting more and more accustomed to this kind of feeling. He really enjoyed it. It was a sense of conquering the whole battlefield. A feeling of having complete control over something.
Not only Qing Shui, but other people, they all found this young man to be really terrifying. The ability that this young man possessed was too unique. Originally, the gap in strength between Old Man Qin, Qin Baifo and the opponents was small. It took them more than a hundred moves to find out the victor of the matches. But now, one move was all it took for them to decide the winner. It was a completely one-sided, one hit KO battle. What exactly was going on?
Art of Pursuing!
Qing Shui gazed at an old man in black attire who was charging towards Qin Qing. He immediately tossed his Art of Pursuing. Unlike the Emperor’s Qi, the Art of Pursuing could only be used one opponent at a time. Hence, for most of the time, Qing Shui would only use it on strong warriors.
Pa!
The opponent immediately slowed down. Heart Toxin Talisman!
Qing Shui hadn’t used this sort of Heavenly Talisman in a long time. This type of Heavenly Talisman was very powerful. It was just that he wasn’t strong enough before, so the chance for these talismans to succeed was quite low. Now that he was stronger, adding that he was also luckier, he was able to execute attacks by tossing them as he wished.
The reason why he intervened was that he felt that the old man was a very powerful threat.
Heaven Slayer Old Ancestor!
Qin Baifo charged his way forward as he revealed the old man’s identity. Only Qing Shui had fought against the Demonic Old Ancestor before. He had no knowledge about who the Heaven Slayer Old Ancestor was.
Nine Leaf Ripple Palm Strike! Thousand Threads Ten Thousand Silk Kill!
The Heaven Slayer Old Ancestor looked at the attacks which he was once able to deflect before in disbelief. Right now, he was in despair.
The massacre continued but in a one-sided fashion. Both the Chai Clan and the Yue Clan were really upset. As for the Gu Clan, they had never felt as regretful as they were now. However, the things a person did was like water that had been poured out. It could never be undone. They could sense danger slowly approaching their clan. Unfortunately, at this point, it was no longer something which they could take into consideration. The reason was that today, all of their lives would end here.
Sometimes, death wasn’t the scariest thing. The worst was dying for no reason. Having a smile even down in the underworld was also considered to be gratifying. However, The Yue, Gu and Chai clans were unable to manage even that. They had indeed, died without knowing the reason for their deaths.
The following battle almost didn’t have any suspense in it. For warriors at this level, it didn’t take long for them to finish. From the beginning till the end, it only lasted for about an hour.
There were a lot of places in ruins around Qin King Manor. There were also a few warriors that had been injured. The majority of the battles took place in the sky. Otherwise, the entire Qin King Manor and nearby areas would have turned into rubble.
Every single enemy was annihilated. This battle was well fought. The damage which Qin King Manor received was minimal, though a few people might have died. To Qin King Manor, they had managed to withstand grave injuries. The people who died weren’t the powerhouses of Qin King Manor. Qin Baifo and another old man received slight injuries. But with Qing Shui here, they were healed with relative ease.
As for the corpses, there would naturally be people who would take charge of handling them. The surroundings of Qin King Manor were covered in smoke. It was so quiet to the point not even a trace of sound could be heard. To Qin King Manor, it felt as if their life was renewed after a calamity.
Old Man Qin went to Qing Shui’s side. Not only had this young man helped extend his lifespan, causing his position in Qin King Manor to improve, this time he even helped to ensure that Qin Royalty would be safe and sound. Without him, Qin King Manor would have been annihilated.
“Qing Shui, Qin King Manor owes you a debt which I am afraid we will never be able to pay. So long as you find Qin King Manor useful, you can tell us. Everyone from Qin King Manor will put everything at stake for you. Yes, I mean my word and it will be in effect forever.” Old Man Qin looked into Qing Shui’s eyes and said slowly. He sounded really firm.
Qing Shui smiled and shook his head, “Old man, you don’t have to be so formal with me. Do you really think that I would just sit still and ignore everything that’s happening to you?”
The old man smiled and remained silent. He really liked this young man. Not only was he capable, but he also took relationships seriously. While observing her granddaughter who had changed yet again, he felt relieved.
The change in her daughter occurred too suddenly. Prior to this, when Qing Shui didn’t come back with Qin Qing, the old man was already aware that something was going on between them. Deep down, he felt really sad about it.
Today, having seen that Qing Shui had come, they all felt as if they had relieved a burden in their hearts. All along, the Qin Clan had been worried about the things that were going on with Qin Qing personally. She was too outstanding, outstanding to the point they didn’t know what kind of man would suit her. The fact that she brought Qing Shui back this time already gave a sign of the man who would probably be a match to her.
Hence, everyone from Qin Clan was really happy. They never treated Qing Shui as an outsider. Qin Ying’s death had caused a dark cloud in everyone’s hearts which they couldn’t sweep away for the time being. Not to mention it had even triggered a dramatic change in Qin Qing.
“Everyone, let’s head back. This is something which is worth celebrating.” Old Man Qin said in joy.
“Little brat, why don’t you and Qing Shui both go down and get ready? You have all worked hard. Come down and have something to eat later.” Qin Baifo said gently.
Everyone left. They all gave Qing Shui and Qin Qing some time alone. The reason why Qing Shui could make it to Qin King Manor was all because of Qin Qing. The reason why he could get involved in this matter was also because of Qin Qing. Not to say that he could help extend the Old Man Qin’s lifespan, it was also because of Qin Qing.
“Thank you!” Qin Qing looked at Qing Shui and said gently. Her pupils looked extremely beautiful. However, from Qing Shui’s perspective, those weren’t the familiar pupils which he used to see before.
“Is there anything else for us to talk about? No matter what the future is, so long as I know that something has happened to you, I won’t just sit still and watch as you fall. I will never do that.” Qing Shui shook his head, let out a sigh and said.
“I can feel that your feelings for me have changed. I am aware that you don’t like me doing this. But I can’t control myself.” Qin Qing said softly.
“I didn’t change, nor am I against you doing so. Haven’t you noticed that after the shock from before, that your heart has been filled with other stuff? As of now, it no longer has any place for me.” Qing Shui shook his head and said in an upset tone. Upon receiving a certain shock, a person will change based on what the incident was about.
Qin Ying’s death had caused Qin Qing to lose her interest for the affairs between men and women. It was replaced by hatred. This was also the change which Qing Shui sensed from her. Though she didn’t do anything to Qing Shui, he was able to notice her resistance.
After being silent for a while, Qin Qing spoke slowly, “No I haven’t. Deep in my heart, I still have expectations for you.”
