Free Web NovelChapter 1479: Chapter 759: Qing Yi Meets Qing Shui_2
For Qing Luo, he felt that the "Lonely Fist" technique wasn’t a closely-guarded secret. As Qing Shui had already taught it to Qing Hu and Qing Bei, he hoped Qing Shui would ask his teacher (this ancient elder) if it could also be taught to other clan members.
"No problem!" Qing Shui responded straightforwardly. First, when he broke through the ancient enhancement technique, the technique was unlocked. It could be said that he had no "ancient elder" teacher. Secondly, when cultivating the "Lonely Fist" technique, talent is very important. Even if he prints out the papers and distributes them throughout the village, it wouldn’t have much impact. Not to mention, the people he would teach would be his own family members.
After Qing Youu recovered, he fell into deep depression. As the top disciple of the third generation of the Qing Clan, he could not even withstand an attack from Situ Bufan. These actions brought shame upon the entire Qing Clan from his hands.
Seeing how depressed his son was, Qing Jiang tried to lift his spirits by recounting a series of events that happened after he fainted. Qing Youu thought the whole story was simply nonsense. It was too unbelievable, especially Qing Shui defeating Situ Bufan with just one blow. If it wasn’t for the fact that so many people witnessed it, no one would believe it. After hearing the story, Qing Youu gathered a few close friends, even went with Lan Family’s Lan Ye to verify the story. Lan Ye’s reputation of being the person who doesn’t lie finally made him believe the story was true.
Only after verification did Qing Youu seem to recover some from his depression. After all, the shadow of Situ Bufan’s arrogant face remained vaguely visible, like a nightmare. He couldn’t help but sigh at his inadequacy and inability to smack a double hammer onto Situ Bufan’s head. Qing Youu could only lament that he couldn’t witness Qing Shui outsmarting Situ Bufan firsthand.
Qing Youu has always been an impulsive person. Before he even recovered from his injuries, he jumped out of bed and directly rushed towards Qing Shui. Qing Jiang could only see the quick leaving silhouette of Qing Youu as he shook his head. He knew that this was his son’s nature, trying to stop him was useless.
Qing Shui was shocked and astonished to see Qing Youu rushing towards him. Didn’t Qing Youu have to rest in bed, recovering from his injuries? Could he still sprint?
"Ai, Qing Youu, you should rest after getting injured!" Qing Shui said with a smile while looking at his cousin.
Qing Youu shook his head, going straight to his point.
"After hearing that Qing Shui Pavilion pounced Situ Bufan like a little dog, I immediately felt much better." Qing Youu glanced at Qing Shui, eyes sparkling.
Qing Shui knew that Qing Youu, as an epitome of the third generation disciple’s strength, had always admired and respected those stronger than him. Choosing a weapon proved he was a person of explosive strength.
"Hey, I found his self-important cup annoying a long time ago. Fortunately, I had enough strength to knock him down. Think about his earlier arrogance and then being defeated within minutes." Qing Shui laughed heartily while chatting with Qing Youu.
"Haha!" A delightful sound full of laughter drifted over.
"How can you two make someone behind you humble?" Qing Yi overheard their conversation about Situ Bufan and suppressed her desire for open ridicule as she gently reprimanded them.
"Mom!", "Aunt!"
"Qing Shui, I also passed on the other six hundred-year fiery fruit to your grandfather. When he saw the fruits, he was very happy and told me that he would give you any compensation." Qing Yi smiled, glowing radiantly.
Qing Shui was momentarily stunned. He knew Qing Luo could access the treasury in a secret room where all precious items were passed down from Qing Clan descendants.
After recovering from his shock, Qing Yi gestured for them both to follow her to see Qing Luo. "Please remember to ask your grandpa for the two fruits when you meet him later." "Don’t worry, I will help you persuade your grandpa." Qing Yi patted his shoulder and said to Qing Youu. "With Aunt here, you’ll definitely get your share."
"Thank you, Aunt!" Qing Youu was extremely excited, his entire face flushed with joy. He has always inclined towards strength. Knowing that the fruits can boost his strength by 1000 pounds, how could he not be interested? If his strength increased by at least 1,000 pounds, he would not lose to Situ Bufan.
Upon arriving at Qing Luo’s residence, they saw Qing Luo watering in his yard, leisurely enjoying his day. His tall and robust physique did not show his age at all. He was already over 100 years old! But, considering the lifespan of post-heaven peak experts, he was merely middle-aged. What was unfortunate, Qing Luo was cursed with loneliness. Since his wife passed away, he never remarried and relied on himself to raise his children. Now, all his grandsons have grown up, the second generation members urged and supported him to remarry. But all matchmaking suggestions were rejected by Luo Qing.
"Dad!"
"Grandpa!" Qing Shui and Qing Youu both greeted Qing Luo.
"Hahaha, wonderful!" Qing Luo was very pleased, and everyone knew the reason behind was Qing Shui. Most likely, after Situ Bufan’s arrogant behavior, the Qing Family would gain more status in Baili City. In the future, when the Qing Family conducts business in Baili City, they would not endure constant pressure like before."
But now it’s different. Qing Shui easily defeated a young master of the Four Major Clans in Baili City and indirectly impacted their dignity. Countless challengers were waiting for him in Baili City, ready to vent their anger.
"Qing Shui, since you’ve given us the hundred-year fruits, I will allow you to choose whatever item you like from the Qing surname’s treasury. After all, we cannot blindly accept your good will without giving you any compensation."
This was Qing Shui’s first time in this room. The room was simple, without decoration, only with a bed, a bookshelf, a table, and a set of chairs.
"Grandpa, what are you saying, we’re family! Although the hundred-year fruits are valuable, their effects cannot be stacked. It’s right for me to hand them over to you. After all, I am part of the Qing Clan!" Qing Shui said earnestly, determination in his voice. His grandfather always loved him. He still remembered when he was young, Qing Luo went to Baili City to buy a hundred-year-old purple ginseng for consumption.
Qing Luo was delighted, but nevertheless, he hoped Qing Shui would ask for an item, saying it’s necessary because it’s a Qing Clan rule. Those who contribute will be rewarded.
Looking at Qing Luo’s determination and Qing Yi’s slight nod, indicating her agreement, Qing Shui decided to try his luck...
"Well, if that’s the case, Grandpa can you give me a Divine Medicine for crippled legs?"
Qing Shui’s request almost caused Qing Luo to have a heart attack. When facing Qing Shui, complex emotions surfaced in his eyes. "You should already understand the effect of the Divine Medicine for crippled legs. Currently, you may be considered to have vast potential, so you shouldn’t consider this medicine at all."
"Yes, Shui’er, your grandpa is right. Qing Yi hastily persuaded Qing Shui, hoping to change his mind. Qing Yi barely recovered from Qing Shui’s shocking request. After all, she told Qing Shui about the effect of the Divine Medicine for crippled legs."
Bitterness rose in Qing Shui’s heart. His future potential was limitless, but currently, he was still trapped in a damned bottleneck, utterly unable to make a breakthrough! Crossing the fourth-level Heavenly Gate step had eluded him for six years... a full six years!
"I know, Grandpa, Mom, don’t worry, I won’t do anything to harm my potential." Qing Shui displayed a reassuring smile, for only he could understand the helplessness he felt.
Upon hearing Qing Shui’s consistent reassurance, Qing Luo and Qing Yi slightly relaxed, yet did not give up reminding him repeatedly about the harmful effects of shrinkage medicine.
Unknowingly, Qing Shui had already stood at the peak of the third generation, becoming the shining star of the Qing Clan. Everyone except Qing Shui was fascinated by him and his future accomplishments. Qing Shui did not like to become the focal point of attention, exposing his abilities so soon. After all, could his current ability really compare with the true super cultivators on the African Continent? It was just that Situ Bufan was too annoying, and for the future of the Qing Family, he had no choice but to step onto the stage. However, besides this, Qing Shui’s innermost depths harbored another reason.
