AST 2182 - Gathered at the Great Yu Mountain, Entered the Yu Royal Gate (1/2)
Nuolan was not going as she still needed to monitor the news on the outside. Moreover, not many members of the Divine Palace would go, and Qing Shui did not plan to bring Yin Tong and the rest along with him. Thus, that reduced the number to less than ten people.
Beihuang Fan told Qing Shui as soon as she arrived, “It is freaky dangerous to go the Yu Royal Gate this time.”
Qing Shui smiled, “How did you know I would go?”
“Open once every five hundred years, you will surely go as you won’t want to miss this chance.” Beihuang Fan sounded certain.
“If you disappear there, there won't be any traces left. The next time it opens, everything would have changed.” Qing Shui smiled.
“I heard many people were lost and left in there forever.” Beihuang Fan was not afraid, she was just stating a fact.
“Are you afraid?” Qing Shui asked.
“No, are you?” Beihuang Fan asked while looking at Qing Shui.
“I'm not afraid. I'm just worried that if something happens to you, I won’t know how to be responsible to your father,” Qing Shui said half-jokingly.
“Don't worry, life and death are fated. If someone is to die, he would die in the safest place. If someone is to live, he would survive in the most dangerous place,” Beihuang Fan said seriously.
“You are really big-hearted. I like to be free and easy too. How about being sworn brothers with me?” Qing Shui proposed.
“Do I look so much like a man?” Beihuang Fan was not mad.
Qing Shui observed her seriously. Her flawless and beautiful face, her fair skin was so soft and hydrated as if you could squeeze water out of it. She had a vague and fresh scent which was comforting to smell. Her beautiful eyes made people feel inferior. They were like black gems, shining brightly. She had a sense of serenity and extraordinary aura which made people feel helpless.
Beihuang Fan lost her peace when Qing Shui stared at her from three feet away. She couldn’t help but avoid his eyes.
Qing Shui smirked as she turned away, “Miss Fan, I'm sure you are a woman. You would probably become my little woman in the future.”
“You want to die right now?!” Beihuang Fan turned her embarrassment into anger and glared at Qing Shui.
A beauty was still beautiful when she got angry. In Qing Shui's opinion, she seemed more approachable when she got mad. He always felt speechless when she showed no emotions and stayed quiet. Hence, he would try to irritate her, even though that was quite mean of him…
“Do you want to kill me?” Qing Shui sat down and served the tea.
Beihuang Fan sat across the table and sipped her tea. After a while, she said, “Yu’er wants to go too. Initially, I didn't plan to bring him along, but he insisted and dad agrees to let him go as a form of training.”
“Let him go then.” Qing Shui said calmly while sipping the tea.
“He is considered quite good among the younger generations, so I’m pretty sure that someone else will want to kill him,” Beihuang Fan sounded worried.
“Hmm. In fact, those who would want to kill you will be greater in number than Beihuang Yu’s,” said Qing Shui after pondering for a second.
