AST 1572 - Jiange's Feelings

Jin Liyu's words made the others look at Qing Shui with amazement, because it meant that Qing Shui's strength was large enough that even he had to give importance to it.

”A person's strength is limited. Brother, don’t put me so high up on a pedestal; we will have hope in defeating the enemy if everyone works together. Let's work hard for everyone in the Sea King’s Palace.” Qing Shui raised his cup.

”Those who are sitting here are all brothers, sisters and best friends. Our life and death go hand-in-hand.” Muyun Qingge raised her cup of wine.

”Cheers!”

……

The dining table was quite harmonious. Everyone sitting here were all powerful characters of the Sea King’s Palace and were either the tribe's leaders or chiefs. The reason why they were so peaceful was because of Muyun Qingge.

The Drakaina Tribe was also a Dragon Goddess' Tribe. They all have powerful heavenly techniques. In case they awakened the bloodline in their bodies, they'd become terrible existences.

All of them absolutely acknowledged their allegiance to Muyun Qingge. As for the question whether there was a more powerful patron behind her, no one knew. Though her bloodline hadn't awakened, her strength wasn't something anyone could ignore.

Each tribe had a chief as well as a few elders under that position. They all stayed in their domains but they all belonged to the Sea King’s Palace. Their honor and glory ran together with the Sea King’s Palace, hence they all joined together to fight against the outside invaders. After all, if the Sea King’s Palace fell down due to the attack, their only fate was to be taken as captives.

Naturally, the only exception would be traitors inside, as they'd be the opponent's outstanding allies.

Thinking about the existence of traitors inside, Qing Shui remembered Yiye Jiange's previous words. Since she said that the Sea Dragon Palace and the Vicious Shark Palace had absolute certainty to take down the Sea King’s Palace, he wondered whether there was anything fishy going on here?

……

After the banquet, Qing Shui returned together with Yiye Jiange. After all, Qing Shui was her husband and it was proper that they returned together. Qing Shui didn't even have to look for a place to live and could live in Yiye Jiange's palace.

Muyun Qingge didn't go to disturb them as this pair of husband and wife hadn't seen each other in a long time. Merely, she didn't know that nothing had yet happened between Qing Shui and Yiye Jiange.

This place was just like the Crystal Palace, just that it was larger. It was pretty inside the sealing barrier and also quite clean. There was ample spiritual qi here. Qing Shui pulled Yiye Jiange as they walked through a path of stones with cypress like trees to both sides. Though they weren't tall, they looked good.

The two of them talked about many things during the walk. Those were all affairs which happened during these years. This place was quite important to Yiye Jiange currently as it could be said to be her home.

Originally, she was planning to return and find Qing Shui but she couldn't leave the place. She had obtained the Drakaina inheritance and if something happened to the Sea King’s Palace, she'd feel worried.

Hence the matter was delayed. She didn't think that Qing Shui would come to find her. At this juncture, although she hadn't seen him in a long time, she still believed in him. Since he had come, the current situation ought to be solved.

She believed Qing Shui had the ability to do that; this was the one kind of feeling she sensed.

Yiye Jiange's palace wasn't big but it was quiet here. Qing Shui and Yiye Jiange entered inside. His mood was quite tranquil as he pulled Yiye Jiange with a calm heart, but he felt an indescribable excitation.

He gazed at that beautiful soul-shaking face from time to time. Feeling satisfaction in his heart, he said, ”Jiange, I never thought there'd be one day when I'd have improper thoughts about you.”

”Why didn't you have improper thoughts? Do I look that ugly?” Yiye Jiange asked though she knew the answer, but the two of them spoke these words as they were a form of enjoyment for them as well as a way to express their feelings.

”In the beginning, I looked at you as my Master who has akin to an Immortal and I only held admiration towards you, feeling like a dancing clown in front of you,” Qing Shui reminisced.

At that time, Yiye Jiange was also only in Xiantian Grade 4 stage then and there was no need to even talk about him. Of course, it was over 20 years ago and a lot of things had changed over these years, and their meetings had also dwindled.

Now, both of their strengths had reached this level, and they remembered that many things had happened over these 20 years.

Yiye Jiange thought of the Lion King's Ridge. The reason this man was unable to let go to such a degree was due to her. All in order to reach the target she had set down, a target to climb the Lion King's Ridge in 20 years and he had accomplished it.

”What are you thinking about? Feeling so happy.” Qing Shui looked at the corners of her mouth curling upwards, they were quite charming.

”I was thinking about the day when we had walked together before. It seems so distant now, but I can remember it clearly.” Yiye Jiange tightly squeezed Qing Shui's hand as she said these words.

”Me too.”

They entered the palace as they spoke. Although it was called a palace, it wasn't actually that big and was the same as a pavilion. The interior facilities were simple and comforting and possessed a sweet fragrance. The entire room seemed quite clean.

”Qing Shui, there are people colluding with the enemy inside the Sea King’s Palace. They didn't act during the previous attacks but since the enemy is determined to win this time, they'll definitely act.”

Yiye Jiange said slowly after sitting in the room. There wasn't much time as they had to eliminate these conspirators before the Sea Dragon Palace and the Vicious Shark Palace attacked.

”Do you know who they are?” Qing Shui asked curiously.
