AST 1553 - Another Way Of Claiming Justice, The Two Demons of the Chai Clan (1/2)
Qing Shui didn’t have much of an opinion towards their coming revenge. As of now, he was very relaxed. The increase in strength had triggered a change in his state of mind. The strength which he had in hand was very impressive. Only capable people would be able to keep their cool at all times. The reason being that in their eyes, the many things which people would find despair from, were not even worth mentioning.
“Well, in a way, this is great too. Well then, Sister Qin, tell me when it’s time to set off.” Qing Shui nodded and said casually.
“Alright, I am going to rest now. Why don’t you go and have some rest as well?”
……
Three days went by very quickly. During this time, Qing Shui had never once left Qin King Manor. Other than the time when he needed to train in the realm, he would spend the rest of his day in complete relaxation. Other than spending some of his time with Qin Qing, he spent the majority of his time out in the sun.
A person would only reflect when they were under quiet conditions. A person would improve only if they constantly meditated. Regardless of how skillful a person might be with their martial arts, they would still need a brain to be able to socialize with people.
Qing Shui spent much of his time thinking about his future. The woman had promised to meet him at the restaurant after a month to bring him to go and look for Yiye Jiange.
As of now, this was one of Qing Shui’s most important matters at hand. Warriors were beings with unlimited desire. Thus, the reason why Qing Shui cultivated was to bring services to other people. He didn’t want to be the world’s number one. He just didn’t want to be bullied by other people.
Thinking back about how he made it this far, Qing Shui had always struggled along his way. He had always worked hard in order to ensure his survival. Some people often said that a person’s talent was forced out by what they went through. Indeed, this was really the case. When a person was subject to extreme pressure and didn’t crumble, they would explode with newfound power.
By now, a lot of rumors were spreading out in the public. It was mostly about Qin King Manor, the Chai Clan, the Yue Clan and the Gu Clan. There were no walls which wind couldn’t pass through. The things which happened between the clans had long since been spread out to the public. This time, the Gu Clan had been pushed to the edge of the winds and waves.
To begin with, the Gu Clan already had a bad reputation. This time, it had even worked together with the Sacred Might Dynasty to attempt a sneak attack on Qin King Manor. Qin King Manor on the other hand, was known to be a generous clan. The incident this time had caused the Gu Clan to be the target of accusation by the public.
Furthermore, during these few days, other news were also been spread out to the public. It was about Miss Qin of Qin King Manor who would visit the Gu Clan to claim justice for Qin King Manor.
No one knew the purpose behind this action when this news got passed on. It wasn’t for nothing that the name Miss Qin was quite influential around the area. Her nickname Fairy Qin wasn’t called for nothing. The incident this time had caused people to start neglecting the things which happened before.
The thing which the majority of people couldn’t understand was why Qin King Manor decided to send Qin Qing off to fight for their justice. Despite how strong Fairy Qing was, she was still just a youngster. The Chai, Yue, as well as the Gu clans were all aristocratic clans. It seemed Qin King Manor had become a bit arrogant about their strength.
But there were also other assumptions that were made, that was, Qin King Manor was trying to give them a chance this time. Which was why they sent a junior to go and fight for justice of their clan. It’s unlikely that the other clans would send out any of their monster-like seniors this time, as this would significantly bring down their status as aristocratic clans.
The rumors outside didn’t just stop there. Apparently, another news was heard. Qin Qing and Qing Shui sent out a challenge to the Yue and Gu clans. Furthermore, it was a compulsory challenge. In other words, a challenge which the opponents must accept.
If a compulsory challenge was rejected, the opponent would have the right to directly intrude and attack the clan. Actually, that was exactly the intention. Qing Shui was only trying to do it in a more polite way. This was why he decided to go with the challenger letter option. A compulsory challenge.
……
The designated location for the battle was at Moonwolf Island. By now, both Qing Shui and Qin Qing were already at Moonwolf Island. The duration of the battle was set to last one whole day. Within this fixed time, there must constantly be a person from each clan taking part in the battle. The battle would only end if either Qing Shui or Qin Qing died.
There were quite a lot of people who headed off for Moonwolf Island upon receiving the news. The majority of them were people from the Sacred Might Dynasty and the Great Qin Dynasty. Across the continent, martial arts was the most popular trend. A challenge could be seen as something above everything. Though the side that was being invited for the challenge was more dominant, people didn’t have high hopes for them.
Adding the incident regarding the three clans, the Gu Clan in particular, which was despised by the people for working with outsiders to attempt a sneak attack on Qin King Manor. Regarding this matter, a lot of people had already been made aware about it. Qin King Manor was on the side of justice.
Moonwolf Mountain Peak!
Both Qing Shui and Qin Qing stood on the highest spot of Moonwolf Island. There was about one hour left until the designated battle started. At the moment, it was only early in the morning. The golden threads of light shone on the ground, making the entire place shine in bright gold color.
The world being flooded with gold, this was exactly how it was supposed to be.
As of now, both Qing Shui and Qin Qing were already considered to be quite harmonious with each other. Though they were yet to be able to go back to how they once were. Somehow, Qing Shui kept feeling that there was something that kept them apart. Qing Shui knew that the aura being emitted by Qin Qing’s body had changed. Hertemperament had also changed.
“What are you thinking about?” Qin Qing looked at Qing Shui before moving her sight onto the rest of the crowd. Among them, there were also people from Qin King Manor.
“I am thinking about who will be sent out to battle against us.” Qing Shui wasn’t being honest. But it was also a reasonable excuse to make.
Qin Qing could also feel that he wasn’t being honest. The reason being that prior to this, he was constantly keeping his eye on her. She could feel a bit of complexity in his eyes. It was a kind of expression which made her feel a bit panicked.
“No matter who shows up from the opposing side, we will need to beat them. Are you not feeling confident that we will win?” Qin Qing smiled and looked at Qing Shui.
“I am always confident with myself. I am invincible when I fight together with sister Qing. If a couple are of the same mind, their combined determination will overcome all obstacles.” Qing Shui remembered himself saying this before. But it was the first time he said it ever since Qin Qing changed.
“Can you ever go a day without taking advantage of me?” Qin Qing didn’t express any sort of dissatisfaction to the statement which Qing Shui made. She only responded in a calm tone.
“Are you willing to let me take advantage of you?” Qing Shui smiled and asked.
“In the past, no one had dared talk to me like that. Even I am not sure why they wouldn’t dare to do so. Personally, I don’t feel that I looked ugly.” Qin Qing looked at Qing Shui and said something which even he found a bit clueless.
