AST 2122 - The Five Tiger Immortal Sect Is Related to Five Tiger Immortal Palace (1/2)

Without realizing it, a week had passed. The Imperial Cuisine Hall ran its business just like every other day, and its reputation was slowly increasing. Naturally, there would still be some fools trying to challenge the hall. But most of them would end up in a very miserable state.

There were also some troubles with people wanting to buy the foods by force. For example, there had been people, who proclaimed themselves to be of high status, coming and demanding to buy the food only to realize that it had been sold out. Those people would then start demanding Qing Shui to prepare it on the spot in great amounts. Naturally, things also didn’t end that well for those guys.

Seeing that the hall was earning so much money, there would naturally be a lot of people wanting to take it over for themselves. Those who lived in the lights, as well as those who lived under the spotlight, had come. But in return, all that they got were paybacks. Naturally, those with wicked intentions suffered greater pain whereas the injuries of those, who didn’t harbor any bad intentions, weren’t as serious. But they still couldn’t get away from having one of their legs snapped at the very least.

“Qing Shui, I have already managed to get some news about it.” On this day, Nuo Lan looked for Qing Shui, saying this to him.

“What news?” Qing Shui was stunned.

“News about the Five Tigers Immortal Sect.” Nuo Lan answered back.

Qing Shui immediately overwhelmed with excitement. He said hurriedly, “Tell me about it!”

“The Five Tigers Immortal Palace is related to Five Tigers Immortal Sect. The Five Tigers Immortal Sect stands directly under the Five Tigers Immortal Palace. In other words, the two are actually one entity.” Nuo Lan said.

Qing Shui knitted his brows, “I am a bit confused.”

“The clan that once ruled over the Five Tigers Immortal Palace established the Five Tigers Immortal Sect. However, the person leading the Five Tigers Immortal Palace has changed now and is no longer from the clan that ruled it once before. Despite that, the Five Tigers Immortal Sect is still a branch of the Five Tigers Immortal Palace. They are quite strong and have quite a high authority in the immortal palace itself.” Nuo Lan explained to QIng Shui.

Qing Shui knitted his brows. It seemed the things this time wouldn’t be as simple as he thought. If he wanted to help Tantai Lingyan solve her problems, he would have to face off against the Five Tigers Immortal Palace. But the current Five Tigers Immortal Palace shared a close relation with Demons Gate. Even if the Divine Palace and Taiyi Immortal Palace were to combine their forces, they still wouldn’t stand a chance against those two.

Nuo Lan knew that there had been conflicts between Qing Shui and Five Tigers Immortal Sect before. But judging by how the current situation was, it seemed that he wouldn’t be able to solve it immediately. Thus, after a moment of hesitation, she said, “Since you have waited for so many years, you should be happy to finally get to hear some news about them. The time is on your side anyway. Why don’t you take it step by step?”

Qing Shui felt warm hearing these caring words. He nodded. Indeed, it was a thing to be happy about. However, Qing Shui never planned to tell Tantai Lingyan about it for the time being. He should wait for a suitable time and only tell her when he was strong enough to handle her mortal enemies.

“Thank you!” Qing Shui sneaked a smile.

“Here you go again with your formality.” Nuo Lan let out a sigh of relief when she saw Qing Shui doing so. She was honestly worried that Qing Shui would go and look for the Five Tigers Immortal Palace directly.

“You are the female owner after all.”

“Do you feel uncomfortable not being able to take advantage of me?” Nuo Lan wasn’t angry. She gave Qing Shui a kind of seductive look.

Seeing that, Qing Shui immediately avoided contact with her eyes. While in front of this woman, he was not only unable to take advantage of her after being seduced, but he would also end up embarrassing himself.

Nuo Lan could tell that Qing Shui was being shy. Moreover, his desire to investigate her body wasn’t really that strong. He was just like a big baby. Actually, under these circumstances, it was not that he never thought about it, but it had something to do with his conscience. Despite being already married and have his own children, he would still feel a bit shy at times. Nevertheless, he was still, already completely different from the teenage boy he once was.

“Are you really married?” From Qing Shui’s look, she could tell that he wasn’t faking it. Before this, Nuo Lan even suspected Qing Shui to be a virgin.
