Standing in between the two great Chiefs, Qin Wushuang listened to them talking eloquently. He doesn’t speak too often, yet his occasionally opinions had let the two great Chiefs nod with acknowledgment.
It was apparent that indeed, this Qin Wushuang was a promising person. Regardless of which aspects, it was difficult to pick the flaws. The most rare thing was that despite coming from the human countries, he did not display the slightest stage fright or a sense of inferiority. Many disciples they had selected from the branch had such emotion. However, none were seen on Qin Wushuang.
On the other hand, since Qin Wushuang had stepped onto the martial arts path and despite having made a lot of great establishments, he did not display the ecstasy of smiles of exultation when he got received by the two Supreme Dao elite warriors. He had appeared extremely calm and collected.
Such attitude in which he had remained unmoved by gains and losses were the part in which one would admire this young man the most. If it were any other Core disciple in such situation, most likely they would be restless and trembling in fear.
Qin Yunran had shown incredible interest to Qin Wushuang’s martial arts experience. Especially the part where he had saved the Hundred Leaf Qin clan, ambush large groups of freelance martial artists corssing the border of the Dispersed Praying Mountain, and the stories where he contend with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, Qin Yunran had loved it and listened with keen interest.
Like a murmuring brook, Qin Wushuang’s narration was neither urgent nor unhurried. However, Bao Bao who stood on the side had showcased a completely different style when he adds details to the stories, as if in a perilous situation.
Qin Yunran had listened to them as if he was obsessed. He gave roars of laughter: “It’s truly fabulous! Third, for disciples of the Heavenly Emperor Gate Eights, if they do not rely on their ancestors, do not depend on their own supporters, I am afraid no one is capable to take out the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect alone, right? Even the son of the Heavenly Emperor cannot do it!”
Qin Wushuang immediately said: “Second Chief, I did not strike the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect with my power alone. Those fortuitous opportunities, and Senior Lu Xianlou’s treasure house were tremendously helpful.”
Qin Yunran laughed: “It’s nice for a young man to remain neither proud nor hot-tempered. Wushuang, have you ever thought how come all those fortuitous opportunities fell onto you? This is your own luck. Graceful Spiritual Bow, ha ha, Wushuang, do you know the classical story to the bow?”
Inwardly, Qin Wushuang was surprised. He had possessed the Graceful Spiritual Bow for many years. However, regarding the story, the background of the bow, he truly had no idea.
Bao Bao immediately asked: “Great Chief, this Graceful Spiritual Bow have a classical story?”
Qin Yunran chuckled and said: “Of course it does. Initially, the Graceful Spiritual Bow was not a divine weapon belonged to the Xuan Yuan Mound. It had come from the faraway Heavenly Illusion Lake. Only, the person who possess the Graceful Spiritual Bow failed at challenging the Xuan Yuan Clan and had died before returning to the Heavenly Illusion Lake. The Graceful Spiritual Bow is then lost. I didn’t expect that it had appeared at the Human Countries!”
“So such old stories had existed.” Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh, “I never thought that when I was only at the Initial Stage of the Spiritual Martial Force, the senior brother I became acquainted had given me a divine weapon. It’s truly unexpected. I just don’t know where my sworn brother is stranded.”
Qin Yunran laughed and said: “Unfortunately, you only have the Graceful Spiritual Bow, and not the corresponding Shooting Sun Arrows. If you could acquire the original nine Shooting Sun Arrows, the power of the Graceful Spiritual Bow will at least, increase three more times. Even with your current strength, you will be able to shoot Luo Tongtian to death head on!”
“Such tremendous power?” Qin Wushuang was dumbstruck. Through his experiement to the Graceful Spiritual Bow, at most, he could only shoot people two levels above him.
At his current Transformation Void Martial Stage, he already needed to perform outstandingly to shoot one at the Perfect Void Martial Stage. And Luo Tongtian was at the peak of the Common Mysterious Stage, a superior figure with one feet already in the door of the Supreme Dao!
“It is this powerful!” Qin Yunran said with certainty, “Even for a Supreme Dao warrior, under the combination of the Graceful Spiritual Bow and the Shooting Sun arrows, sometimes they had no choice but to give way in the face of superior strength.”
Qin Wushuang looked at this Graceful Spiritual Bow with astonishment for he was extremely surprised. However, since the jade green arrows equipped at a later date had already displayed its’ superior strength, the original equipment; it’s certain that the Shooting Sun arrows would have a great increase of power.
“Do not find it to be unexpected. You must think that it’s owner had came with the Graceful Spiritual Bow to challenge the Xuan Yuan Clan. The Xuan Yuan clan is the totem of the Xuan Yuan Mound! The most superior existence in the Tian Xuan Land!”
Qin Yunran’s words made Qin Wushuang to apprehend to some extent. That’s right, since he was the elite warrior who had challenged the Xuan Yuan Clan, how could he be inferior?
When he thought here, he finally believed him.
Qin Yunran said again: “However, these nine Shooting Sun arrows were collected by the Xuan Yuan Clan. Whether it can see the light again, it would depend on your luck.”
“By the way, that Lu Xianlou is a wonderful person. Unfortunately he got killed by Luo Tongtian in the end. He had actually crafted something like the Divine Dao Five Elemental Talisman. Although these talisman were far from the true Supreme Dao power, it had eventually stimulated the Graceful Spiritual Bow’s Supreme power. It’s also hard to come by.”
Qin Chongyang took the subject and gave a long sigh: “Luo Tongtian must feel extremely regretful now. He must wondered why he had not killed Lu Xianlou, and kept him alive.”
“This is the flaw in his personality. He didn’t kill Lu Xianlou because he wanted to torment him. Unexpectedly, in the end he had picked up the stone and smashed his own feet. For someone like Luo Tongtian, even if he were to enter the Supreme Dao, he will not make great accomplishment.” Qin Yunran snorted disdainfully and clearly had a bad impression to Luo Tongtian.
Qin Chongyang said with a smile: “Talking about the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, should we kill that Luo Hengye or not?”
“He is already a prisoner, it’s not a big difference whether we kill him or not. Let’s keep him. I have a premonition that we will be spending long days to deal with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect.” Qin Yunran gave a long sigh, “That Sound of Thunder sect and the Heavenly Punishing Villa already send Supreme Dao warriors to the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. I am afraid the days for Luo Tongtian getting allured to them and work as a tool is not far from now.”
In the middle of their conversation, Qin Chongyang suddenly stood up and said to Qin Yunran: “Second, I must return to the Upright Morality Hall. Information has come that some great waves happened to the Heavenly Emperor Gate.”
“Oh?”
“The Heavenly Emperor send out the summoning order and ask the other seven sects to send a leader to discuss for a major matter at the Heavenly Emperor Palace. The Heavenly Emperor Gate had not send a summoning order for ten eyars, I am afraid something has happened.”
Qin Yunran did not seemed to show interest as he waved his hand: “You shall go. I don’t have a good impression to the Heavenly Emperor Gate, even if I go, I will be doing glib talks.”
After Qin Chongyang had left, it was inconvenient for Qin Wushuang to stay. He followed Qin Chongyang to leave and headed towards the Plain Field Town upon recognizing the right direction.
…
Under the governance of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, the Plain Field Town was an incredibly ordinary town. Across the Qin Clan’s entire territory, there would be hundreds and thousands of towns similar to this one.
Like any usual day, the morning of the Plain Field Town had appeared incredibly peaceful and calm. On an open space, a group of young people sat cross legged. About a dozen of these young people surrounded an elder and listened to him attentively.
“Talking about our Plain Field Town, back then we also had some powerful figures. Unfortunately, they did not have a very good fate.”
“Uncle Liu Jin, are you referring to Qin Xiang and Qin Yu siblings? That is so long ago, could it be that for the past hundreds of years, no other heroic figures had appeared from our Plain Field Town?”
That elder stroked his goatee and revealed a distracted look. As if he cherished the memory of the history dearly, he said with a solemn tone: “In the recent hundreds of years, we had some young disciples going to the Aspiring Throne Mountain. However, almost none had made great accomplishment.”
“Ah, when could our town have a few elite figures? This way, we will not get bullied!”
While they talked, a forthright guy came running from outside the space as he cried: “Everyone go take a look, people of the Red Water Town came to bully us again!”
“What’s going on?”
“Slow down, what about those of the Red Water Town?”
That forthright guy said while gasping for breath: “Weren’t it still about the matter of the mine? They had beat three or four of our warriors to death. The people of the Red Water Town firmly believed that they possess that mine. They do not allow us to exploit!”
“Isn’t it too outrageous? Didn’t we already passed the ruling that each side will get half?”
“Damn it, I think the Red Water Town is bullying us intentionally! Aren’t they just relying on some of their supporters at the Aspiring Throne Mountain?”
“That’s’ right, they are bullying us for not having anyone in the higher-ranks!”
“Let’s go take a look. We will fight to death with these vicious thugs!”
That old man Liu Jin said furiously: “Stop there, just you guys, what can you fight with them? Just with you lot alone, are you sending yourselves to your own graves?”
“Elder Liu Jin? Even if we are going to our own death, it’s better to die from fury! If we keep holding ourselves back, sooner or later we will die from excess of anger! We should just fight to death with them!”
“That’s right, if we risk our lives, even if we are to die, we can at least take a couple to serve as sacrificial victim!”
That elder Liu Jin stomped his feet and swore: “Foolish, for such matter, you will only make it worse if you go. You will still need our town’s leader to negotiate.”
“Negotiate and talk, we have done this for a few decades, and nothing was done. If the talks keeps going, how can we still go through our days?”
“If this keeps going, the Plain Field Town will soon get extinguished!”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Old man Liu Jin still possess great respect to the family leading the Plain Field Town. The leading family of the town was indeed, the Plain Field Qin Clan, the family of the two siblings Qin Yu and Qin Xiang.
Initially, when the siblings of Qin Yu and Qin Xiang had emerged into the world, the Plain Field Qin Clan had become the core of this town. Although no other superior figures such as the two brothers had appeared again, the members of their Qin family had a deep impact and were love, respected by people of the town.
In these years, if those of the Plain Field Qin Clan had not contended with great effort, they would not have lay their hands onto the mine.
However, as mentioned before, the Red Water Town had people above them. For the recent hundreds of years and since the death and missing of Qin Xiang and Qin yu, no one were qualified to succeed them.
In the current circumstance, it was like a little brother embarrassed at New Year’s celebration for showing his poor life. Year after year, it was getting worse.
Now, the main force of the Plain Field Qin Clan also gathered together. Although these Qin disciples did not have any extraordinary skills, their sense of belongingness and honor to their family could not get stripped off by any powerhouses.
Before the powerful Red Water Town, they would never compromise.
They had organized themselves and headed towards the direction of the mine. Since the Red Water town were being unreasonable, they would use unreasonable method to fight them!
It’s not for the Red Water Town to act outrageously regardless of the law and of natural morality to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan.
…
On the other hand, Qin Wushuang had travelled close to twenty thousand miles of journey with Bao Bao and Lone. Under their current speed, it would take them at most more than half a day.
When they arrived outside the Plain Field Town, they dropped to the ground and started to walk.
“Boss, after hundreds of years, I am afraid we must go ask around to find a person.” Bao Bao said.
Qin Wushuagn said with a smile: “Then we will ask around, let’s ask those elders.”
While they talked, they saw an old man walked down heaving deep sighs from the slope before the minor road ahead of them. This old man was indeed, Old Man Liu Jin from previously.
