AST 1880 - Heaven-earth-sovereign-parent-teacher, Great Confucian’s Path (1/2)
Qing Shui watched the middle-aged man like watching a clown. His words sounded so ridiculous.
“If you make one more noise, I'll make you vanish,” Qing Shui’s calm statement kept that middle-aged man in silence.
At this moment, Qing Shui despised this middle-aged man more. He was not even comparable to the blindly loyal and stubborn intellectual in his past life, let alone the charisma of Great Confucian. Qing Shui wondered what was their status in the Great Confucian Empire. If this reflected the Great Confucian Empire’s level, Qing Shui had probably overestimated them.
In fact, Qing Shui forgot that he recently improved in leaps and bounds. His breakthrough was terrific and out of the league. He would indeed think these people were weaker.
However, these people should not represent the Great Confucian Empire. Moreover, the strongest Elder Jian Nu among them had yet to move. Elder Jian Nu should be stronger than this middle-aged man even if he could not fight against Qing Shui.
“Very good, seems like I've underestimated you,” Elder Jian Nu made a step forward. His voice was soft but extremely cold.
“One has to pay the price for underestimating others, especially for his opponent. One negligence and he would lose his life,” Qing Shui looked at Elder Jian Nu.
“We came to seek medical treatment today, can you go back with us now?” Elder Jian Nu’s answer stunned Qing Shui. It was irrelevant, yet, the intention was clear.
“I said I don't see patients anymore, plus, I have the full authority to treat anyone or not,” Qing Shui hated such a bossy and haughty manner.
In fact, Qing Shui knew that there were too many who behaved like this. Generally, they were someone of high status. The men of the Great Confucian Empire were qualified to do so, but it’s just that Qing Shui was not in a good mood when he saw this. The Second Young Master Hua might be from the Great Confucian Empire, but upon considering the current situation of the Imperial Cuisine Hall, Qing Shui refused to do a favor.
“If that's the case, I could only arrest you,” Elder Jian Nu replied slowly after a brief hesitation.
Qing Shui had no idea who the patient was up to this moment. Listening to the Elder Jian Nu, he smirked, “We shall see what you've got. If you could arrest me, I will guarantee to cure the patient.”
“Keep your promise!” Elder Jian Nu raised his eyebrow and held a white, long sword in his hand instantly.
This sword was two times wider than the usual ones, around three inches. Normally, a three-feet long sword was only an inch wide and very light. There were wider ones too. The Elderly’s sword was densely carved with tiny characters.
Though from afar, Qing Shui noticed it despite the unknown symbols and characters. They were like the pictographs in his past life, full of ancient sense. Qing Shui despised him less for that.
“Bring your weapon out, I don't want to hurt you,” said the Elder Jian Nu as he saw no response from Qing Shui.
“When I need it, I will take it out,” Qing Shui left a way out for himself. After all, his strength would be much greater with the Golden Battle Halberd, especially when the opponent owned unpredictable weapons.
“If you say so, watch out then!”
Without any redundant words, Elder Jian Nu pointed his sword towards Qing Shui from far.
Single Sword Soulshaking!
Qing Shui’s eyes brightened, this was a power generated by the Great Confucian’s righteousness. It was a defensive sword technique with an immense destructive power against the selfish and evil practices.
This attack was a spiritual attack. For example, one could die out of fear. Legend had it that humans had souls. Qing Shui was unsure about it, but the World of Nine Continents could refine the spirit. It functioned as a character in the Dantian whereby he could transfer his own consciousness into it.
Apart from that, there was no better explanation for Qing Shui’s presence here besides passing through with his spirit.
