AST 1703 - The Feeling of Home, Warmth (1/2)

Qing Shui guessed that Qing Hanye was worried about the current dangers. Of course, she could be feeling scared as well. Moreover a lady who took great care of her own chastity wouldn't be able to take action immediately, even if she were to encounter a man that she liked.

The humans in the world is made up of men and women. In life, the matter between men and women was indispensable to life. However, it didn't all revolve around it. This matter was a indispensable condiment of life. Of course, humans used this same method to engage in reproduction.

Qing Shui also knew why Qing Hanye had said that he was detestable in the past. Back then, while it was said that he couldn't be bothered with her, others could tell that he was avoiding her. To a lady with unrivalled beauty, moreover one who had taken the initiative, it was a huge blow.

”Are you angry with me for what I had done in the past?” Qing Shui and Qing Hanye sat next to each other on the sofa, looking a lot calmer now.

Although they hadn’t done anything too physical between each other, kissing and embracing can help to ease their feelings. They don't always just serve as to add fuel to the flames.

”If you were one of those frivolous men, there's no way that I'd have taken a liking to you.” Qing Hanye smiled and said.

”You trust me so much? I might be a hypocrite, playing hard to get in order to get you one day.” Qing Shui chuckled as he looked at this beautiful lady.

”If that's how it is, I'll accept it. How long were you going to keep it going? Are you sure that you'll be able to find me? You don't even know how to lie. Otherwise, you wouldn't have not tried to find me despite having been here for so many years.” Qing Hanye sounded especially happy.

”Ye'er!”

Qing Shui previously had also called her Ye`er when the old man was around, just like how the old man had done. However, it made them feel especially close when he addressed her in this way when there was just the two of them. Qing Hanye felt very warm inside. Other than her Master, there was now one more person that she cared for.

”Mmm!” Qing Hanye lifted her head and smiled charmingly as she looked at Qing Shui.

”You demoness. With a woman like you, my lifespan would be shortened by at least ten years.” Qing Shui reached out his hand to pinch her upright nose.

”Are you regretting it?” Qing Hanye smiled. Such a ”compliment” from a man was still very effective on women..

”How could that be possible? I would gladly accept dying in the hands of a beautiful lady. I'd even be willing to have a hundred years taken from my lifespan, let alone ten years.”

”You're not allowed to say such ominous things. I want you to be well.” Qing Hanye rested her head on Qing Shui's shoulder.

Qing Shui didn't stay for very long. He still needed to return to Yiye Jiange. Moreover, he wanted to enjoy the blissful family life. Therefore, Qing Shui returned before it was dark.

It was never too late to enjoy a good meal, and good things must be slowly appreciated. Qing Shui was not that anxious as there would still be plenty of chances in the future. Moreover, during this trip, he had gotten the Extreme Yang Righteous Pill.

This was also a surprising gain, an especially great one.

Qing Shui thought of fate. Usually things that are unexplainable can be described as fate. In fatalism, the encounters between people is all destined and there will always be the possibility of connections being formed between people, or between people and things.

By the time Qing Shui returned to the Sunset Palace, it was already night time. Qing Shui had a new secret way of returning unnoticed. After the ninth layer of the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal was unlocked, the changes to the spirit energy caused Qing Shui to make an astonishing discovery. He could now use the Nine Continents Steps in the water.

Upon entering Yiye Jiange's room, he noticed that she was alone. Yiye Jiange was now just like an ordinary person, and thus there was no need for the Sunset Palace Mistress or Muyun Qingge to be by her side all the time. However, both of them were also staying in this place.

When Yiye Jiange saw that Qing Shui had returned, she broke into a happy smile. Although she hadn’t said it, but she was still a little worried when Qing Shui was headed to the Dragonwolf Palace. She was now at ease on seeing that Qing Shui had returned.
