” Come on, baby is still waiting to be milked. ’
Huoyun Liu-Li, ’’ .. ’’
Qing Shui saw that/that the two women with beauties blessed by the sky did not speak, and their slightly pouted lips indicated that/that they were still angry. However, he felt that/it was enhancing their charm, and he was enjoying the scenery. After all, there was not much chance that/that he should tease Canghai Mingyue.
” You bastard, you bad person ... ” Huoyun Liu-Li muttered as if she was talking to herself, but she had regained consciousness.
Canghai Mingyue had let go of Qing Shui's hand, but there was a hint of turmoil on her beautiful face. Qing Shui held on to the lingering feeling of holding his soft hand as well as the overwhelming feeling he had when he touched the tip of his nose.
When Qing Shui saw the outstanding figure of Canghai Mingyue, especially the beautifully shaped breasts, he thought of how Young Master Feng wanted to pollute Canghai Mingyue. It seemed like he was the grandson of Elder Feng Immortal Sword Sect.
Qing Shui only felt a little astonished towards the three men. It was fine if this person looked extremely arrogant. It was fine if she had a special preference towards young married women who were breastfeeding, and it was fine if she drank a cup of fresh human milk every day. He did not drink directly but used a cup. After all, there are all kinds of people in the world. However, why did he have to show off to the rest of the world?
What surprised Qing Shui wasn't the special preference the man had, but the fact that/it was the three people had shouted it out blatantly in broad daylight, make an open declaration to everyone on the streets. Qing Shui didn't know if he should take it as arrogance or stupidity …
They had not gone far in the Southern Ancient Pass when they crossed it. Although it was not pleasant, Qing Shui did not think too much about it. On the other hand, he felt that/it was such a common occurrence. After all, there were two women with beauties who were top notch in their generation, and it would be strange if no one coveted them.
He thought that/that Canghai Mingyue should have a reputation in Greencloud City, or at least, in the southern part of the city. He did not think that/that they would ” bullied ” on the first day they came out. Now, Qing Shui understood the essence of all these circumstances.
There were very few world-leading people from the nine continents, especially those whose names were known and spread to everyone in the world. Even if there were some of them whose names had been passed down for thousands of years, they did not even leave their portraits, so it was impossible for others to know what they were like.
The worldwide land of the nine continents was vast, and the population was measured in trillions. Although it was not a world formed from various countries, the land area taken by each country was measured to be a great country from Qing Shui's previous life. Each country has a population of at least 100 million. This was a world inhabited by various renowned sects and clans. They were the rulers and leaders in this world of the nine continents.
For ordinary people, they would probably never leave the country they were born in all their lives. The same could be said for a Xiantian cultivator who did not possess a flying demon beast. Therefore, most people are restricted to a certain area. To be able to spread their name in the city is not easy. Those who could become famous in a country were usually not one person, but a sect or clan that had a good reputation.
Just like how for the leading sects and clans at the southern gate of Greencloud City, that reputation was marked by the name of a sect or clan. After that, it descended to the identification characteristics they knew, such as the white clothes of the Immortal Sword Sect and the silver sword, the colorful Joyous Sect's winding robe. After all, communication in the world of the nine continents was not comparable to the network of the modern world. Hence, it was extremely difficult for one to become famous.
Skysword Sect was known throughout Cang Lang Country, but outside, it was nothing. Similarly, it was the same for the Immortal Sword Sect. If they left the south gate, they could ignore the thought of the person who recognized them. At the best of times, only a few passing merchants or cultivators might have heard of their names.
As the saying goes, success depends on time, geographical location, and human relationships. In this area, the Immortal Sword Sect was considered advantageous in terms of geo-recallocation graphics. The sect had been passed down for over a thousand years at the southern gate and had long built a strong foundation to spread their roots here. Once they left the southern part of the city, they would not be comparable to any country out there. If they remained there, they would be much stronger than many of those countries.
Although they were located in the southern part of the city, the place was the size of two or three countries due to the large size of the continent's capital. The capital of the continent was actually equivalent to a combination of several countries that had a good geographical location. In terms of spiritual energy on the ground, the capital of the Greencloud Continent had the most spiritual energy, with the exception of the unique immortal legendary immortal place.
’’ Young Miss Mingyue, is this Immortal Sword Sect so powerful? Are there experts in the Immortal Sword Sect who are on par with Senior? ” Qing Shui wants to know the strength of the Immortal Sword Sect and how strong the leading sect is at the border of the continent capital. Moreover, Qing Shui also wanted to know the level where Canghai Mingyue's father was at.
” Can you tell my father's cultivation level? ” Canghai Mingyue's eyes lit up in astonishment as she asked. Her stunning appearance is captivating and worthy of a second look. One will sink deeper and deeper into each view.
Qing Shui took a serious look at the beautiful face of Canghai Mingyue. He could even see long eyelashes that were like a pair of palm leaf fans. Adding on her beautiful black and clear eyes, her beauty was completely unbelievable, as if she was like a beautiful image.
” I can't! ” When he saw that/it was Canghai Mingyue wanted to hit him in the head, Qing Shui spoke seriously.
Canghai Mingyue was also speechless. She was dumbfounded by Qing Shui earlier, thinking that/it Qing Shui could really tell her father's cultivation level. He did not think that/that he would stare at her for so long that he began to feel uneasy from her clear gaze.
Thankfully there did not seem to be any hatred in that clear gaze, but the answer ended up angering. Even if he could not tell his father's cultivation level, there was no need for him to stare at him for a long time.
Canghai Mingyue threw an annoyed look at Qing Shui. She had no idea how she felt about the man she could not see. Her feelings towards him were neither hatred nor love, nor could she tell her cultivation level. While he looked like an ordinary person with no strength at all, his father had given him a good appraisal at their first meeting. This was the first time he had seen his father pass judgment against others, and even he had only received a rating of ‘’ very good’.
Comparing ‘’ very well’ to “not bad, not bad at all’, they should be very similar or have only a slight difference. What embarrassed him was that his/her mother wanted to pair them both after seeing him for the first time. He could not help but find it to be a joke. He had not thought of getting married before, nor had he thought of who he would marry.
Thinking about all this, Canghai Mingyue began to feel a little embarrassed. Moreover, Qing Shui was the person that Huoyun Liu-LIi liked. He also did not harbor feelings of love for her like Huoyun Liu-Li did.
” If I don't see it, I'll miss it. If I see him, I'll be happy. When I see that/that she's so excited, I'll be too. If she is sad, my heart will hurt for her. When I see him, my heart will beat very fast. I also like to hear him speak ... ” Canghai Mingyue thought of what Huoyun Liu-Li had said to her, and it made her think of the words that her colleague had told her today.
The thoughts and scenes that made her heartbeat flashed through Canghai Mingyue's mind, especially Qing Shui's words and that gentle and unforgettable gaze. He threw an annoyed look at Qing Shui. Facing Qing Shui's curiosity to learn as well as his curiosity, he did not feel hate but was actually very happy.
Canghai Mingyue felt that/it Qing Shui was one of those people who was very quiet and hid their true abilities to themselves. He was the one who would bring surprise and astonishment occasionally. What confused Canghai Mingyue the most was that she saw the tinge of her father's shadow about Qing Shui. Because of this, it made her unable to hate Qing Shui. Even when Qing Shui teased her, he didn't really feel hate for her.
Especially when Canghai Mingyue saw Qing Shui's slightly cruel stern actions. He liked the way he handled things, and supported his decision not to kill two insignificant people. As for the middle-aged man with Xiantian abilities who appeared later, Canghai Mingyue knew that/that if Qing Shui took action, he would at least cripple her. He did not expect to see this matter get out of control.
’The Immortal Sword Sect is considered to be one of the strongest sects in the area, with a very diverse population. Therefore, their connection is also great. In this area, there was nothing they could not solve. No one was sure how many Protectors and Elders they had within the Sect, but it was estimated that/that they should have at least 30 Elders. For sure, every Elder was at least in the Martial King, if not higher. ’’ Canghai Mingyue said as she looked at Qing Shui whose brows started to furrow.
Qing Shui was also astonished by the number. Only Canghai Mingyue alone was the strongest in the Cang Lang Country even though it was only at Xiantian peak. Even the ‘monkey old demon’ who was the Protective Beast of the Skysword Sect of the Cang Lang Country was only a demonic beast that was at the peak of Xiantian.
” Is there anyone in the Immortal Sword Sect who has broken through to the Martial King realm and reached the Martial Saint realm? ” Qing Shui raised his head and looked at Canghai Mingyue with sparkling eyes.
Hearing Qing Shui's words, Canghai Mingyue's lips se***reached a charming arch that had a hint of arrogance and helplessness. To Qing Shui, it was just as mesmerizing as the goddess-like smile of Master. It was an even more intoxicating and flirtatious smile than when a woman looked behind her shoulders.
” I can tell you this for sure. Not only did the Immortal Sword Sect not have anyone at the Martial Saint level, even the strongest Heavenly Palace of Greencloud City that had been passed down for over ten thousand years did not have a single one. ” Canghai Mingyue let out a small sigh and said.
Qing Shui couldn't believe his ears. To think that/that there was no one at the Martial Saint level in the entire Greencloud Continent. After all, he had only been told that/that there were at least 30 Martial King Cultivators within the Immortal Sword Sect alone. To think that/that there were no Martial Saints Cultivators among the countless martial arts practitioners in the Greencloud Continent …
Seeing Qing Shui's incredulous gaze, Canghai Mingyue laughed and said, ” It's not an easy feat to break through the Martial King realm to become a Martial Saint. There was a rumor that/it was an expert in the Heavenly Palace who had reached the peak of the Marital King and had been practicing for 700 years until his death. Until his death, he could not break through to reach the Marital Saint realm. In fact, there were many warriors in the Greencloud Continent who had reached the peak of Martial King, and almost all of them would have their lifespans gradually reduced without them ever achieving a breakthrough. For the past 1000 years, it had not been heard that/it was someone who had broken through to the Martial King realm to reach the Martial Saint realm. ’
The strongest sect in the capital of the Greendcloud Continent was the Heavenly Palace. It was a very familiar name with Qing Shui. Instead of being agitated, he was more astonished. Among the sects he was familiar with, the Heavenly Palace was a name known throughout the world from the nine continents. Moreover, it was also the largest sect in one of the continents. Although, the Greencloud Continent was the weakest in the world of the nine continents.
At the very least, the Heavenly Palace was considered the strongest within one of the sects, and was the leading sect amongst the thousands or ten thousand sects!
Qing Shui didn't know how many of the twelve major sects he knew in his past life would appear, but he saw it as more than a coincidence because it was just a name. It was just like how Skysword Sect and Immortal Sword Sect were also very similar to their names. It's just something to call.
Qing Shui still held a slight longing towards the Heavenly Palace. He felt that/it was a similarity in their names mostly by chance. Even if it was similar to a sect he knew from his past life, what did that mean? He was still hopeful because he liked to find things that were familiar to him. If the Heavenly Palace was really the one he was familiar with, there really was a need for him to do itseeking for protection there or think of a way to register and learn powerful techniques from the Heavenly Palace, he said, especially [] that would increase one's strength by 30%!
” Is it really that difficult to break through from the Martial King realm to the Martial Saint realm? ” Qing Shui rubbed his nose and asked bitterly. After all, there were even higher realms after the 10 grades of the Martial Saint realm, the Martial Emperor, the False God and the Divine Realm. Qing Shui did not expect that/it although this was one of the weakest continents, there was not even a person who had reached the Martial Saint realm.
’’ This is too hard to believe. Across the vast land of the Greencloud Continent with endless martial arts practitioners, there was not even a person who had reached the Martial Saint realm. This is very unfortunate. ” Qing Shui sighed and said.
”Betul. Only the entrance to Xiantian had already blocked the way for many people. Only one in ten thousand, or one in a hundred thousand could enter the Xiantian realm. Even if one reached Xiantian, how many of them could actually advance from grade 1 all the way to the peak of grade 10? How many of them could break through the Xiantian realm to reach the Martial King realm? After entering the Martial King realm, it was said that/it was harder to be able to rise one level higher than reaching for heaven. The experience required to reach the peak Martial King was an unexpected number. Those who can break through the peak stage of Martial King to reach the Martial Saint realm must have great talent blessed by the heavens, possess the Seven Mystic Heart Spells, and experience at least two examples of epiphanies. It is also rumored that/that there is one more amazing item required. ’
Canghai Mingyue said as if she felt extremely emotional. Her deep and beautiful eyes that looked into the distance were as beautiful as the stars.
Qing Shui agreed with this. Just reaching the 4th Heavenly Layer of the Ancient Strengthening Technique had already taken about 7 years of his time. That meant he was blocked at the entrance to Xiantian for 7 years. In this world, he should have already been considered a great talent blessed by the heavens, but Qing Shui felt that/that he could not wait. He feels that his/her life in this world is mainly faced with challenges, and he has done far worse than he thought. Take the example of Canghai Mingyue. He had reached the peak of Xiantian at the age of 30. When she compared herself to him, Qing Shui did not dare to say that/that she was very strong.
Of course, Qing Shui never thought of telling others about what he had. Qing Shui never changed his mind about how this should be a secret from others.
” Let's go back for lunch before leaving for a walk in the afternoon. Your punishment is cooking today. ” Canghai Mingyue couldn't bear to not feel angry because she thought that/that she had taken advantage of him, but at the same time, she felt helpless.
’’ Do you know how to cook? ’’ Qing Shui asked Canghai Mingyue as they continued walking.
’’ I don't. ’Canghai Mingyue replied, a little embarrassed.
” Then, have you cooked before? ” Qing Shui smiled and asked again.
’’ No. ’Canghai Mingyue felt as if she was being led by the nose, but she could not really understand what the problem was.
Seeing Canghai Mingyue's hesitant reply, Qing Shui smiled and said to her, ’Do you want to cook something delicious for your parents for once? It is not easy for them to raise you to this age and nurture you well for many years. ’
