Ancient Strengthening Techniques
He likes you, unless he doesn't realize it
Tears flowed down her cheeks uncontrollably, and her weak sobs were almost inaudible.
Huoyun Liu-Li already had the will to die as she took a death blow for Canghai Mingyue. Even after he was hit, he could still feel a sharp pain on his face. However, he did not care anymore because he knew he would not survive the blow.
But, when he opened his eyes and saw the familiar faces of Qing Shui and Canghai Mingyue, he was instantly engulfed in happiness. The feeling of being able to come back to life is not something that many people can experience. When his hand felt a terrifying wound on his face, he knew that/that he was ugly in his current state even without the help of a mirror. It was to the point that he could not even use the word ‘jelek’ to describe it again …
She had been very proud of her facial features for many years, but now that her appearance was gone, she wished she had never had them in the first place. The shock he received was worse than when a Xiantian Cultivator had crippled their cultivation.
’’Better like this. I can be alone forever from now on .. ’’ Huoyun Liu-Li secretly made plans for herself!
After she made her decision, her mind was instantly filled with thoughts from Qing Shui's smile and everything that had happened between them, ever since she first saw and met him in Earthly Paradise, she said, for every fun event that comes after. Tears fell from his eyes, staining a large area of the purple scarf underneath.
Qing Shui and Canghai Mingyue walked out of the living room. They understood that/it was Huoyun Liu-Li very sad. He did not want his weak and delicate side to be exposed to others. In the end, they could only choose to leave him alone for a while so that he could take care of his own injuries.
” Qing Shui, what are we going to do about Liu-Li? He must be really upset right now. ” Canghai Mingyue was also saddened by that fact. No one understood Huoyun Liu-Li more than him. Deep inside, she knew Huoyun Liu-Li had not only lost her good looks but Qing Shui as well.
’You don't have to worry about this. I will definitely find a way to restore his appearance. Honestly, I'm more worried about what will happen to us tomorrow. ’’Qing Shui said seriously.
” Right, there is a big obstacle waiting for us! ’’
Canghai's voice came from a distance!
”Dad!”
”Senior!”
Canghai and his wife smiled gently at Qing Shui and Canghai Mingyue. Qing Shui found no matter what Canghai faced, he would keep a calm demeanor. This is the basic cushion needed for success in life.
Problems cannot be solved if you are blinded by hatred and anger. It will be hard to come back from that and it never ends well.
” Senior, other than Old Blindee of the Immortal Sword Sect, is there another extremely strong cultivator? ” Qing Shui suddenly remembered the middle-aged man in the purple robe. If more of these people were in the Immortal Sword Sect, then his chances of survival would be extremely low.
” Ancestors of the Immortal Sword Sect, Zhu Gejian is a Grade 4 Martial King and the next strongest Elder is a Grade 3 Martial King! ’’
In Martial King realm, the difference in one class is enough to pressure you to death and the difference in two classes cannot be won by numbers alone. Back then, Canghai's value was higher than Old Blindee’s, so he could defeat the Great Sect. However, the Great Sect could easily get rid of him if they had broken through …
” Is there anyone in the Southern City who wants to destroy the Eternal Sword Sect? ” Qing Shui asked Canghai.
’’ Is, but with Old Blindee here, they don't even have the guts to do it! ’Canghai laugh. He knew what Qing Shui meant but there was no point in relying on others at this moment. He felt bitter as he thought of the events that had happened before.
’’ What if Old Blindee dies? ’’ Qing Shui eyes burn with spirit.
Canghai's heart trembled, but in the end, he looked at Qing Shui and shook his head. ’’ Nobody in Southern City was able to kill him. ’’
Qing Shui did not reply, but his eyes gleamed with determination!
’’ Qing Shui, remember You can count on me tomorrow. You need to listen to me at all costs. ” Realizing the glint in his eyes, Canghai hurriedly continued.
The sun shone brilliantly from the East, changing the appearance of the land into a sparkling golden state. Qing Shui realized that/it was already noon and he had not been eaten.
’’ Nevermind, cultivate! We can go home to eat together during the day. ” Qing Sui hit her forehead while walking towards where she usually does her morning exercises.
Soaring Crane Steps!
Right now, Qing Shui didn't want to think of anything else except for speed. He would not mind depleting all of his strength in an instant if it meant that his speed could be increased to the peak of his ability.
Circulating the Qi of the Ancient Strengthening Technique, he continued practicing the Flying Crane Crane. Soaring Crane Steps drains its power by a large amount, although it is said that/it three times the power consumed will equal a three times increase in speed. But Qing Shui realized that/it was not the actual case because the greater the amount consumed, the higher the speed would be of triple the amount of consumption.
There are advantages that come with great power consumption. He would be able to ambush one of the Elders of the Immortal Sword Sect. During his last battle with Elder Ying, the distance between him and Elder Ying was too far that he could not make a sneak attack on him. On top of that, Elder Ying wielded a large blade, causing Qing Shui's Roar to be forced into retreat without success. The most important thing to note was that he had reached the 90th cycle of Qi circulating.
After he surpassed the 90 cycles of circulating Qi, his strength had increased tremendously. The good training he did in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal also helped to raise it again.
It was already past noon before Qing Shui stopped cultivating to pick up the Soulshake bell and started purifying it slowly. A long period of time had passed since it was raised to a higher level, and since then nothing had changed.
He refined it ten times straight endlessly, even entering the middle Violet Jade Immortal Realm to release some of the refined energy!
Unfortunately, the Soulshake bell is still not upgraded. He was frustrated because when tomorrow arrived, he was going against the Immortal Sword Sect, the leading Great Sect both in the Southern Country and City.
Qing Shui was worried that he would not be able to use the Soulshake bell as well as he could when the time came. He did not want to end up with her regretting his life. Qing Shui knew that/it's greatest use for Soulshake bells was the defiance of the natural order in the world of the nine continents.
It's a pity that/it's too low a value!
As he looked towards the sky, he walked towards Huoyun Liu-Li's pavilion. As she entered her room, she discovered that/that she was awake, and greeted her with a light smile on her face.
Smiling, Qing Shui sat down beside Huoyun Liu-Li's bed to grab her hand with his own!
Huoyun Liu-Li moved as she watched him extend his hand, but Qing Shui managed to catch both of his hands in the end.
Not speaking a word, he carefully circulated the Qi of the Ancient Strengthening Technique to warm his meridians, bones, and organs.
” Liu-Li, I know you won't believe anything I say so I won't say much. I just wanted to tell you that/that I am still the same Qing Shui from before, and you are still the Huoyun Liu-Li I know. ’
Qing Shui gently looked at Huoyun Liu-Li as he said this, reaching out to his other hand to grab Huoyun Liu-Li's jade-white hand.
Huoyun Liu-Li's eyes were filled with happiness, warmth as well as loneliness and disappointment!
Qing Shui did not dare to say anything more, and lost what to do. Right now he could not even crack a joke, let alone a joke. If he didn't try, it would make his imagination run wild with negative thoughts. But if he did, it would only make him feel worse.
’’ Liu Li, how are you feeling? I've seen your wounds, it's not a big deal anymore. Come on, I'll take you for a walk! ” Qing Shui said as he set his gaze on Huoyun Liu-Li who looked bored on the bed.
’’I can wake up?’ ‘Huoyun Liu-Li asked in surprise.
”Yes. Go, slowly! ” Qing Shui grinned and then, he simply carried her in his arms!
” Liu-Li, did you know when I saw you in that state, my heart felt like it was breaking into pieces. If anything happens to you, I will never forgive myself. ” Qing Shui said in a low tone, his voice hoarse. Although the change in tone of his voice was unclear, it clearly sounded different from before.
’’ Qing Shui, stop. I-i know. Sister Mingyue told me everything. You are so silly, why do you treat yourself like this? If something happens to you, I won't even die peacefully. ” After saying that, she hugged Qing Shui's neck and cried.
” How dare he tell you about this, I will deal with it later. ” Qing Shui said angrily.
” Don't you dare! ” Huoyun Liu-Li raised her teary face. There was no trace of grace and charm left on her face now but it did not look any different in Qing Shui's eyes. She is still beautiful, just like how you would like someone even if they have flaws.
” Alright alright, I won't! ” Qing Shui brings a thinly dressed subtle body.
’’ Qing Shui, Sister Mingyue likes you, unless she has not noticed it yet. Please be kind to Sister Mingyue. I've never seen him treat another man the same way he treats you. ” Huoyun Liu-Li said as she looked at Qing Shui.
” Liu-Li, do you like me? ” Instead of replying to her, she questions seriously.
After he asked that, he felt Huoyun Liu-Li dumbstruck before smiling. He avoided Qing Shui's gaze and shook his head. ’’I don't like you. I don't like you anymore. ’
” Liu-Li, if I become paralyzed one day, will you be disgusted and hate me? ” Ask Qing Shui lightly.
’’ No, never. I will still love you no matter what you become .. ’
Huoyun Liu-Li hurriedly said in panic. He saw the smile in his intoxicating and silent eyes.
’It's like you said, Liu-Li, I like you. You have always been the beautiful and charming Liu-Li I know in my heart. ’
After she said that, Qing Shui leaned over to kiss those pale lips!
