AST 1933 - An End, Making Preparation
The appearance of the old man gave peace to Qing Shui’s side. It was unlikely that this place would be disturbed by other people for the time being. After all, the Great Confucian Empire was still a very threatening existence. At noon, Qing Shui was surprised to see Dongfang Zhiqiu and her brother visiting him.
They were here to bid them farewell.
“Brother Shui, my brother and I are both returning to the Heavenly Chess Immortal Palace.” said Dongfang Zhiqiu in a lonely tone. As usual, her brother was wise and dull. The women would usually find men like him very attractive.
“Thank you for assisting me in stopping the Five Poisons Immortal Palace.” Qing Shui smiled and said. He was already informed about the things which the Dongfang siblings had done.
Deep down in his heart, Qing Shui had already treated Dongfang Zhiqiu as his friend, an intimate friend.
“The Five Poisons Immortal Palace was responsible for laying their hands on my sister. There is no need to thank me for it. In the future, feel free to come and visit the Heavenly Chess Immortal Palace.” The man revealed a smile on his face.
Qing Shui’s impression of this man was only decent. He nodded, “I will definitely go there provided that I have the opportunity to do so.”
Dongfang Zhiqiu was staring at Qing Shui. Her beautiful pupils were flashing with traces of sorrow which words couldn’t describe. She seemed like she wanted to say something but yet was unable to do so. Eventually, she waved her hand at Qing Shui, “You must come and visit me at Heavenly Chess Immortal Palace or else, I will hate you for life.”
Qing Shui was stunned. But then when he saw her expression, he nodded and said, “I promise you that I will definitely go to the Heavenly Chess Immortal Palace to visit you.”
“So, you managed to get another beautiful woman to fall into your trap.” Qing Hanye let out a soft laugh beside Qing Shui.
Qing Shui didn’t move his lips. However, Qing Hanye was able to hear clearly what he muttered, “You little witch, I will deal with you tonight.”
“Go ahead! As if I will be afraid of you!” Qing Hanye’s voice was clearly transmitted into Qing Shui’s ears. Upon hearing that, Qing Shui got really fired up. If there were no huge crowd at the moment, Qing Shui would have banged her immediately right on the spot.
The Dongfang siblings left. If not mistaken, the Five Poison Immortal Palace should also have taken their leave. In fact, there wasn’t really anything which involved the two great sects to begin with. The reason why things ended up like this was merely that of the Grand Elder and Dongfang Zhiqiu. Luckily, things haven’t developed to the point of no return. Basically, both the Heavenly Chess and the Five Poisons Immortal Palace didn’t make a big fuss over it.
The problems which revolved around the Great Confucian Empire could be considered as solved. Qing Shui was now the master of the future Great Emperor of the Great Confucian Empire. Not only that, but he was also a Battle God Inheritor. For a while, it was unlikely that any major wars would unfold around here.
Though the Great Confucian Empire might seem to be rich and powerful, in actuality, it was already riddled with gaping wounds. Hence, the empire has stopped expanding itself externally. Instead, it was focusing on developing its internal strength.
The girls from the Sunset Seaking Palace and the Dragon Wolf Palace were also ready to leave. Qing Shui sent them away himself.
After going through the things around the Imperial Cuisine Hall, Qing Shui took the other girls along and immediately appeared in front of the Divine Cave. After that, they rushed their way to the Sunset Seaking Palace together.
Upon arrival, the girls were pleased to find out that not much changes had taken place in the palace. They were finally able to put their mind at ease. Actually, these were all within Qing Shui’s expectations. After all, the current Sunset Seaking Palace was already one of the most powerful forces around the area. Under normal circumstances, very rarely would anyone attempt to provoke them.
Qing Hanye received the Poison Dragon King. Furthermore, its strength was even more superior now. The Dragon Wolf and Sunset Seaking Palace was a complete being from Qing Shui’s perspective. Nevertheless, this didn’t mean that if they didn’t merge into one, there wouldn’t be any advantages. Of course, they could still look after one another.
Their strength was very close to one another. Maybe in the future, they might truly get to merge into one. However, for the time being, it wasn’t really important.
“I can finally rest for a while now. During this time, my heart has always been feeling uneasy.” Yiye Jiange let out a sigh of relief and said.
“That’s because Jiange has more people that she was concerned about than me. Here, let me carry the little brat for a while.” Luo Qingcheng took over Qing Xiu as she was speaking.
Even Qing Shui felt that the little brat was very blessed to have so many people spoiling him.
“Qing cheng, since you are so fond of children, why don’t you try giving birth to one?” Qing Hanye smiled and made a joke about it.
