Free Web NovelChapter 1483: Chapter 761: Five Years (Part 2)
A few days later, Qing Shui planned to set off for Baili City. After that, he intended to buy low-grade seedlings and plant them in the Space Domain. "Low-grade, huh? If he sold them as 100-year-old herbs a year later, he could still earn a substantial profit. With money, he could naturally purchase higher-grade seedlings and then cultivate them himself."
Qing Shui pinned his hopes on spiritual herbs, wishing to master pill-making techniques and become an Alchemist. Only then, after releasing all the knowledge about the otherworldly medicine pill formulas in his mind, would he stand a better chance than others to enter the Innate World. That year, when the elder of the Yan Clan forcibly separated Qing Yi and Yan Zhongyue, Qing Yi mentioned a Yan Clan elder with power in the Innate Realm, capable of tearing apart the entire Qing Village with a flick. Everything depended on one’s level of power!
The Innate Realm is an important boundary for numerous cultivation fields. A cultivator stepping into the Innate Realm is considered to have ascended to heaven. However, for every Middle Cultivator who successfully steps onto the threshold of the Innate Realm, there are millions trapped outside."
Considering the Divine Medicine he possessed, Qing Shui was very tempted to consume it to help him break through to the fourth level. However, he wouldn’t take the risk lightly. He knew that once he did, his chances of entering the Innate Realm would be nearly zero, and he could never avenge Qing Yi.
With no other solutions, Qing Shui could only grit his teeth and continue cultivating tirelessly in the Violet Jade Fairy Realm. He had a strong feeling that the moment he broke through the 49th cycle of the Qigong cycle, it would be the moment he stepped into the "ancient enhancement technique" fourth level.

Today, a visitor came to Qing Shan, making Qing Shui extremely excited. The person was a judge for the annual competition of the Feng Family. It was the enchanting lady! Qing Shui took a deep breath; this was what one would call a mature lady, ripe like a peach. Qing Shui couldn’t stop thinking about it.
A slender waist, rounded bottom, soft and creamy skin, those mesmerizing eyes. All these factors combined kept Qing Shui from guessing the actual age of Mrs. Feng.
When she glanced at Qing Shui, the moment her beautiful eyes swept past, Qing Shui could see how captivating her eyes were. They seemed to be filled with a dreamy expression, plus a hint of ecstasy, capable of tugging at the heartstrings of all but the strongest-willed individuals.
"Hmm, mature ladies, indeed my favorite!" Qing Shui excitedly daydreamed.
Qing Shui, huh? As expected, even I find it hard to discern your true level of strength." Her lovely voice refreshed his ears. Just hearing her speak made him feel comfortable inside.
"Yes, I’m Qing Shui! Who are you?" Qing Shui decided to ask directly.
(TL Note: *You, "您–您" is slightly different from what ordinary people use. Usually, it is used by juniors when speaking to elders."
"The name is Feng Wuxi, from the Feng family, but you can call me Aunt Xi!" At this moment, Qing Luo’s laughter-filled voice drifted over.
"Aunt Xi, nice to meet you!" Qing Shui obediently replied.
"Ah, Elder Qing Luo is indeed fortunate, thinking a young hero has emerged in your clan’s third generation." Feng Wuxi laughed, praising the two of them in just one sentence.
Qing Luo invited Feng Wuxi into their living room. Suddenly, Feng Wuxi reached out, grabbed Qing Shui’s hand, and pulled him along. The sudden action shocked Qing Shui, his mind going numb, and he didn’t even react when Feng Wuxi led him away. Little did he know, Feng Wuxi found him very adorable because she could see his beet-red face now full of signs of nervousness and excitement.
Qing Shui could feel Feng Wuxi’s hand smooth as silk. When he sneaked a look at Feng Wuxi, blood rushed to his head, as she seemed to be leading the way unrestrainedly.
"Uh, she just sees me as a child!"
Qing Shui clicked his tongue, feeling a bit annoyed, then flared his nostrils to inhale Feng Wuxi’s fragrance as his heart raced. Such a rare speciman of a mature woman, I’m curious who she sleeps with at night.
Qing Shui felt very evil, with his mind full of "art films" scenes from his past life revisiting him. He imagined himself doing those things with Feng Wuxi, being the star trying out all positions...
It wasn’t until they entered the living room that Qing Shui woke up from his daydream.
"What a sin!" Qing Shui was caught between a rock and a hard place, silently blaming himself for his earlier thoughts.
"I’m here to discuss the matter between my clan’s Yue Ru and your Qingzi. The two of them get along very well, so I would like to propose a marriage between them. What do you think?"
Qing Shui knew Yue Ru was the one who fought with Qingzi in the annual competition. He thought through his nose, thinking they might get married today after all."
[1] Previously, she was called Feng Yanfei in earlier annual competitions. I think the author forgot haha. Well, her name is Feng Yuruu. Indeed, during the annual competition, the audience noticed the mutual attraction between Feng Yuruu and Qingzi, especially the sharp-eyed leaders of the two clans.
After the end of the annual competition, Feng Yuruu found Qingzi under the guise of exchanging pointers. They got along like a house on fire. Their interaction started becoming more frequent, and from the fiery gazes they exchanged, it was clear the two young people had fallen into the raging river of love.
Especially after the Feng family saw Qing Shui’s performance in the annual competition, they decisively agreed to strengthen ties with the Qing family through a marriage proposal.
That’s why Feng Wuxi personally set out, hoping to settle the engagement soon!
"Excellent, this matter is settled. Tomorrow I will have Qing Jiang personally travel to the Feng Family, deliver the engagement gifts, and then we’ll choose an auspicious date for the two lovebirds to marry." Qing Luo laughed heartily. It could be seen that he was in an extremely good mood.
"Hahaha, Elder Qing Luo is indeed a straightforward person." Feng Wuxi smiled slightly, only then did she release Qing Shui’s hand.
"Ah, Grandpa, brother Qingzi is getting married?" Qing Shui seemed surprised, but there was excitement in his voice.
"Yes! An adult man and woman should get married. Your brother Qingzi is already 26, and his talent on the cultivation path can at most be considered slightly above average. Now is the time for him to start a family and help with clan affairs." His voice held no hint of regret.
"Kirk, Qing Shui, are you jealous that your brother Qingzi is getting married? Do you want Aunt Xi to introduce you to some lovely ladies I know? I’m not really sure which of these ladies could marry you." Feng Wuxi gently teased Qing Shui.
The old man Qing Luo couldn’t help but notice Feng Wuxi’s intention. It’s normal for people to show favor. Feng Wuxi was a clear-headed, kind, and visionary person. He knew she wouldn’t take advantage of Qing Shui.
Luo Qing also expressed admiration for this young leader of the Feng family. Her cultivation level could be considered among the top three in Qing Village. Qing Luo knew that if it weren’t for past accidents, Feng Wuxi’s cultivation level wouldn’t just stop here, but she might even be said to be a Phoenix passing through the nine heavens.
Upon hearing Feng Wuxi talk about marriage, Qing Shui shook his head inwardly. As long as issues with the Yan Clan remained unresolved, he couldn’t even begin to consider the possibility of marriage. Qing Shui only wanted to pursue the path of power, so he didn’t want to provoke any woman.
"Aunt Xi, I’m still young, so I’ll shelve this idea for now." Qing Shui replied with a cheerful smile. In his heart, even Qing Shui himself was disgusted by his own actions. "Oh, if I’m not already reborn, I would surely win the Best Actor Award."
Indeed, after coming to this world, his personality changed. Appearing cool on the outside, gathering on the outward, leaving a good impression on others, only showing his true self when nobody else was around. For example, when things go wrong, cursing and swearing could only be done privately. After the annual competition, people’s goodwill towards him was only amplified. Qing Shui became the model that the younger generation wanted to emulate.
