AST 1803 - Yehuang Guwu and Shen Huang (1/2)

After conversing for a while, Qing Shui looked at the sky and smiled, “I will go make something to eat. Why don’t you have a meal here instead?”

Qing Shui was only trying to be polite since it was lunchtime after all. Of course, he was still used to the habit from his past life and could not miss three meals per day. Quite a contrast to the martial cultivators in the World of Nine Continents, they only had a meal once per day.

Because three meals were basically the same as one meal, he could go on without eating for dozens of days straight. Even so, one meal per day could guarantee a slight increase in his power, just like how he could gain more energy by eating more in his past life.

In addition, a meal per day could also ensure the cultivation of his vital organs. Just like sleeping, it could be regarded as a type of maintenance over one’s mental condition. Even a martial cultivator had to ensure that they had no less than an hour of sleep every single day.

Of course, it wasn’t an absolute rule. One could delay their sleep for the meantime should something happen unexpectedly. However, in most cases, one would have to sleep for a while, even a nap would suffice.

Qing Shui thought that the woman would excuse herself after he had said that.Regardless of the situation, he felt that she would never stay for a meal. Thus, he had only suggested it out of politeness.

“Alright then. After we’re done eating, I will bring you to the Phoenix God Organization for a tour.” replied the woman after considering his suggestion for a moment.

Qing Shui was shocked. He then quickly curled a smile on his lips and nodded, “Alright. Wait for a moment, I will go make the preparations in a jiffy. Come inside and rest in the meantime.”

This place was Qing Shui’s solitary courtyard. In normal days, Qing Shui would use this place to cultivate in peace, which was why the members of the Qing Clan would not come here to disturb him even if he had nothing to do.

Even if Qing Shui stayed at this place for several days, no one would come here to disturb him.

Qing Shui called Yehuang Guwu over to the courtyard. In any case, Yehuang Guwu was also a member of the Phoenix God Organization.

“Gu`er, I have also joined the Phoenix God Organization.” Qing Shui revealed the news to Yehuang Guwu as they headed toward a small courtyard.

Yehuang Guwu was surprised and looked at Qing Shui in disbelief. Qing Shui, on the other hand, took out the fine gold token with the word ‘guest’ inscribed on it.

“Ah, you’ve really joined the Phoenix God Organization.” Yehuang Guwu seemed quite excited as she gazed at Qing Shui.

“The master of the Phoenix God Organization came and invited me to join the organization. However, she gave me absolute freedom. Even if the organization goes down in flame, I am allowed to stand aside and do nothing.” Qing Shui said, softly.

“Ah, how can there be such a foolish person? Oh, I understand now.” Yehuang Guwu suddenly realized something as she continued to look at Qing Shui.

“Understand what?” Qing Shui looked back at her with a grin.

“She is indeed a wise person who has definitely noticed how you really behaved. It’s fine as long as she’s able to make you join. She has certainly seen through you as a person who will not stand aside and do nothing in times of crisis.” Yehuang Guwu said as she came to realize the situation.

In a swift manner, both of them managed to arrive in a small courtyard. Yehuang Guwu was even more startled than Qing Shui when she saw that woman. The woman was also stunned when she saw Yehuang Guwu but she quickly said in a calm voice, “You are also a member of the Phoenix God Organization.”

“How did you know?” Yehuang Guwu asked, still startled. Ever since she first joined the organization, she had never set her foot to that place before.

“Anyone who joins the Phoenix God Organization will have a portrait of their own. I have seen your portrait.” The woman replied, unhurriedly.

Yehuang Guwu took out an Elder Token to show that she was a member of the Phoenix God Organization.

“Your power has grown rapidly. When you joined the Phoenix God Organization in the beginning, your powers weren’t strong enough. I remember this because you are a beautiful woman. Are you his woman?”

The woman asked, softly.

Indeed, Yehuang Guwu’s power had grown too quick. At the current state, her powers were said to be amongst the top of the Phoenix God Organization.

“That’s right. What should I call you? Are we well-matched together?” Yehuang Guwu smiled.
