Yan Clan, Yan Ling's Cry’er
Some of them arrived one after another in the Lai Clan's tallest pavilion building and entered a bright and spacious room. An expensive table is neatly placed without a speck of dust on its surface!
’’ Qing Shui, I am aware of your situation. The Yan Clan has now made enemies with the Lai Clan as well, so I have to tell you something now. ” Lai Jiutian said after pondering for a moment.
’’Uncle, don't worry. I will not let danger fall on the Lai Clan. Please don't worry! ” Qing Shui reassured him seriously, and his tone was quite firm.
’’Because you're Chusong's brother, how can I watch without lifting a finger? I'm here to talk to you about something! ” Lai Jiutian gave him a smiling look.
The sky of Yan City will change [1]!
lai Jiutian thought to herself. His blood was already boiling, but he did not show it.
’’From now on, you know a lot about the Yan Clan, so I'll get straight to the point. Otherwise, your desire will most likely be difficult to achieve. ’’ There was a trace of an indescribable look in his eyes, but it was not sneaky. It's just something that's hard to say.
’’Please continue, Uncle!’ ’
’’ Qing Shui, You are the youngest Elder in the Heavenly Palace and, at the same time, also the most potential. Although the Yan Clan was the controller of Yan City in name, the Xiao Clan was the most powerful among all, and this was due to the second master of the Xiao Clan. He was the Elder of the Sword Tower, who was very senior. ’’
Qing Shui finally understood why the Yan Clan was so adamant about having Yan Zhongyue marry the woman from the Xiao Clan. After he was killed, the woman from the Xiao Clan remarried to Yan Zhongfeng, and his first wife died unnoticed.
It all came from the fact that/it Xiao Clan had an Elder in the Sword Tower. Simply put, this was all due to the influence of the Sword Tower. Now, what worried Qing Shui the most was the premonition that/that things weren't going smoothly this time.
’’ Qing Shui, I'm very sure you have an idea of how this will happen, so I won't comment further on that. I, Lai Jiutian, will not refuse the help you need as long as it is within my capabilities. If you need anything, tell Chusong directly, ” Lai Jiutian offers to Qing Shui with a smile.
After saying goodbye to Lai Jiutian and the others, Qing Shui headed to the courtyard where the Qing clan lived. There are many things that come to his mind now. The Yan and Xiao Clan should be aware of this situation, but did the Sword Tower take the opportunity to exploit it?
This incident will get the Sword Tower involved again. This Sword Tower was like a thorn stuck to Qing Shui's throat, and it hurt him every time he remembered that/it was Mingyue Gelou being taken away because of that.
’’This Sword Tower should be released sooner or later.’ ‘Qing Shui secretly made up his mind!
Most importantly, Qing Shui was aware that his/her Heavenly Palace and Sword Tower were sworn enemies. He had defeated 9 people from the Sword Tower before, and there were 2 casualties. With that, Qing Shui was sure that his/her Sword Tower would definitely want to get rid of him. Even Cang Wuya had warned him about the same.
This incident had already explained that/that the Elder of the Xiao Clan would not let him off the hook. He would even use this incident to slam him, but perhaps he wouldn't believe that/that he had improved so quickly.
Qing Shui wasn't too worried about the rest of the Sword Tower because he had the Heavenly Palace behind his back. It was not inferior to the Sword Tower, so now Qing Shui only needed to focus on defeating cultivators from the Xiao Clan.
The cultivator in question was a Grade 8 Martial King, as mentioned by Lai Chusong. However, Qing Shui felt that/it this information might not necessarily be accurate!
By the time he arrived at the small courtyard, he raised his head. It had already stopped snowing outside and the pile of snow on the ground was extremely deep. In the World of the Nine Continents, this could be considered a heavy snowfall.
He entered the courtyard and walked into the living room. The living room was as warm as spring, and the bedrooms were all located on the second or third floor. Everyone from the Qing Clan was chatting and enjoying some desserts in the living room, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
However, Qing Qing was just sitting beside Qing Yi very calmly, without speaking at all. Although everyone wanted him to talk, they did not bother him. They mostly talk to him when he listens.
Qing Yi told a story about him when he was very small and then called Qing Shui. Huoyun Liu-Li also recounted the incident when Qing Shui passed through Yan City with them.
In the end the story they shared revolved around Qing Shui. Qing Shui didn't live an easy life for many years. He suffered just as much as Qing Qing, especially the psychological struggles and physical pressure inflicted on him and his body.
Qing Yi was suffering a lot. His son and daughter bear the consequences of his past deeds ……
Everyone changed the topic and started randomly talking about their daily lives the moment Qing Shui walked in.
Qing Qing Qing's eyes were slightly wobbly when she looked at Qing Shui. The man who had become a hot topic among them was a genius from the Qing Clan. It also seemed like there were many beautiful women by his side, and they all had the kind of beauty that could overthrow the kingdom.
He looked at this man in astonishment, the man who shared the same mother with him.
Qing Shui was greeted with a smile before sitting beside Huoyun Liu-Li, a seat that happened to be right beside Qing Qing. He turned his head and looked at Qing Shui who had been sitting beside him.
’’ Big Brother, should we kill everyone from the Yan Clan? ’’ Qing Shui asked gently as he gazed into beautiful eyes that lacked warmth. Whatever it was, Qing Shui still found a hint of warmth from Qing Qing, who looked like his own mother.
Qing Qing listened to Qing Shui's calm words. So much trust is needed to be able to say those words. The person sitting next to him, someone he had to call mother, was eager to meet her. How much effort this younger brother of his had put in, whom he had never met before, had to put in before he could come today ……
’’ Father, who loved me the most, died. It was the work of Yan Haozheng, them and the Xiao Clan. Father did not die peacefully .... ” Qing Qing slowly said to Qing Shui.
The complaints in those eyes made him feel lonely.
’’Suster, can you promise me one thing?’ ‘Ask Qing Shui calmly.
’’What is it?’ ’
’’After everything is done, come back with us. Break your relationship with the Yan Clan. ’
As Qing Qing nodded, the corner of his mouth slightly moved. Qing Shui wasn't sure if he was trying to smile, as he couldn't find any trace of it. He wondered if he had even forgotten how to smile.
’’Sister, we will go to Yan Clan tomorrow to help mom and you to get back what they have owed!’
……………
Meanwhile, in the Sixth Branch of the Yan Clan!
Yan Haoran gathered with his family. Even though he did not participate in the main affairs of the Yan Clan, he was still aware of many things now: the arrival of Qing Shui, the fact that/that he was the son of his own son, and also the fact that/that he was the youngest Elder of the Heavenly Palace in history.
His grandson, who was left alone in this world, was forced out of the Yan Clan without anyone relying on him. As his grandfather, he was helpless. Family ties were something meaningless to the large aristocratic family, and for the sake of allowing the little girl to survive, she could only be indifferent to him.
But now, his mother is coming!
The Qing Clan has power now. They already had the strength to bring Qing Qing back!
Yan Haoran felt sad and happy at the same time, and his eyes turned wet with tears. His son's misfortune will finally be resolved. It only drove his son to a miserable death ……….
Yan Haoran had two other sons, but their strength was only common. In addition, they have more than 10 young people, but they are made up of 80% women.
If it was Qing Shui, he would definitely be able to recognize one of them!
Yan Ling’er!
Sitting there in despair.
He subconsciously recalled everything that had happened between him and Qing Shui!
’’Thank you, I'm Yan Ling’er. It's nice to meet you! ’
’’I'm Qing Shui!’ ’
’’Thank you, Brother Qing Shui!’ ’
……
’’My Clan is from Yan City, who is in Yan Jiang Country. They should still have some strength in Yan City. If you ever go to Yan City, I will definitely cheer you up well. ’
’’I passed by Yan City on the way here and saw Young Miss of Yan Clan You sell tea leaves. Do you know anything about that? I'm so curious!”
’’You won't know .. actually I'm also just a junior. Sister Qingqing already ….. Brother Qing Shui You seem to be very concerned about Sister Qingqing! ’
’’Don't you feel sorry for her? To the Young Miss of the Yan Clan who was going to sell tea leaves on the streets, and on top of that, was bullied by a man named Young Master Xiao … I wonder how the Yan Clan can only watch this without doing anything. ‘ ‘
’’Sigh, you won't know. You just see the surface. There are good people from the Yan Clan. ’
” Hurrhurr, I don't care about that. Don't bother finding me from now on, because I don't have good feelings towards the people of the Yan Clan. ’
……
’’ Brother Qing Shui, are you still angry? I know that the/that Yan Clan is wrong in this as well. There are actually many who criticize the Yan Clan, but what can I do? ’
’’What is the matter of the Yan Clan having to do with me? I just don't like getting involved with people from such cold-blooded clans. ’
……
’’ Brother Qing Shui, let me tell you some stories about the Yan Clan. Perhaps after that you will understand why Sister Qingqing sold tea leaves on the streets. ’
……
’’When Uncle Zhongyue was still around, no one dared to bully Sister Qingqing. Even Lady Xiao had to tread carefully on the surface .. ’
……
’Brother Xi Ri is a talented cultivator of the Heavenly Palace, although I think he might be a little inferior to you. I want Brother Qing Shui to be lenient to him. ’
’’I guarantee it, and don't call me Big Brother from now on. You will know why in the future. ’
……
He had understood everything .. The reason why he wouldn't let him call him Big Brother, why he hated the Yan Clan so much, was the Yan Clan, why was he so worried about a woman selling tea leaves on the streets of Yan City ……
Yan Ling’er could no longer hear anything else they said. Everything is clear to him now. He was his brother and he had come to collect his debts this time. He was not allowed to fall in love with her …..
Two traces of tears were flowing down her cheeks!
He already knew that/it had no hope in this, but why was his heart still hurting like this …? Why are her tears still down?
Yan Ling’er quietly dried her tears!
’’Dad, do you think Qing Shui will still admit us?’ ‘A middle-aged man asked Yan Haoran.
’’Acknowledge us? Do you remember how the Yan Clan had treated the Qing Clan back then? They had a knife to Qing Shui's grandfather's throat. Didn't you hear Qing Shui's words? Anyone involved with Qingqing had to die, no matter who they were. ” Yan Haoran sighed sadly.
’’If only I had a younger brother like this, it was good,’ ‘Yan Xing’er muttered.
Yan Ling’er was not allowed to go to the Heavenly Palace anymore. This was a decision made by the Xiao Clan because someone from the Xiao Clan was the Elder of the Sword Tower. Things could intensify between the Heavenly Palace and the Sword Tower, and it would not be a surprise if war broke out between them.
’’But Grandpa, we were not involved in the incident,’ ’ said a burly young man. He was considered to be very built among the Yan Clan, very built on top of that.
