Chapter 16
Chapter 16.1: Little Monster from the Low Level Lands
“Is there a way that will allow the Lord awaken?” Bai Zhi Yan knew that the lad definitely possessed the ability to do that.
Without knowing why, from the first time he saw the young lad, he felt that the kid seemed to possess a certain kind of strange and amazing powers.
A kind of power that could change the impossible into a possibility.
Qing Yu nodded her head rather helplessly. “But, I think it would be better that he remains unconscious for the moment!”
The man on the bed had fair skin upon his muscular chest, the strong outlines highly perfect, lean but exuding the beauty of strength. That was a figure that one would have nothing to pick on.
The amount of light in the room was a little dim, and only an approximate idea of his facial features could be seen, but he was definitely a handsome man. Those violet eyes were as pretty as crystals and even though he was not conscious at that moment where there was no life in those eyes, they were still exceptionally enchanting.
That disgusting worm, it really knew how to pick its host.
“I will produce an Essence Elixir that the ice and fire Yin Yang Grub loves to eat within the next two days. I’ll then use that to lure the miserable worm from his body and it will be troublesome for me to carry out the treatment if your Lord is conscious.” Qing Yu kindly explained when she saw Bai Zhi Yan looked highly confused.
In actual fact, what really worried her was whether this man’s heart was strong enough, to withstand seeing her lure out the grub inside his body. If the shock became too great for him to take and his little brother withered from fright, then she would become a sinner.
Afterall, it was in such a sensitive position.
Bai Zhi Yan felt that she was being highly thorough and his expression turned into one of immense gratitude. “Thank you Young Master Qing. If you are able to save my Lord and not let him suffer anymore of this torment, the entire Heavenly Healers Sect will remember this debt of benevolence you have shown!”
“Heavenly Healers Sect?” Qing Yu lifted up an eyebrow as she contemplated on it thoughtfully for a moment. She then realized that there did not seem to be any of the Heavenly Healers Sect’s people within these lands and she immediately knew that these men were definitely not ordinary people!
“Young Master Qing should have heard of the Heavenly Healers Sect. Although I do not know what kind of a revered Master the Young Master studied under, but the Heavenly Healers Sect could be considered to be a big sect of alchemists that enjoy highly significant fame in Cloud Heaven.” Bai Zhi Yan’s smile was gentle, his words faintly probing. He was still very curious just what kind of identity this young lad really possessed.
Looks so outstanding, cultivation in alchemy profound and unfathomable. There were quite a number of reclusive Masters hidden in Cloud Heaven but it was wondered which of those maven Masters was his…..
“I do not have a Master.”
Bai Zhi Yan’s smile froze on his lips.
“I really do not have a Master.” Qing Yu curled up her lips. “All my medical skills and knowledge, were passed down from my family and I comprehended them on my own.”
She had been inculcated to be the next Head of the family from birth and besides cultivating day and night, comprehending <<Buried Soul Arts>> and <<Heavenly Insights of Medicine>> were the only kind of leisure she had available to her.
The level of cultivation and her accomplishment in Medicine all stemmed from loneliness. Because of that loneliness, she was able to attain such boundless power and knowledge in cultivation.
For so many years, besides her Weapons Spirit, there was nothing else that had given her any company.
So in this life, she only wanted to live happily and to live her life as she liked.
Then expression on Qing Yu’s face then became more relaxed.
Here she was telling it to him so nonchalantly, not seeing Bai Zhi Yan’s face that looked like he had seen a ghost.
No Master?
The kid did not have a Master? !
What kind of a prodigious gift would one need to possess for someone to attain a stage like what this young lad has! ?
Even Bai Zhi Yan who was well acclaimed to be the most prodigious genius of the Heavenly Healers Sect in a thousand years had finished his tutelage at seventeen years of age as all the teachers had nothing more to teach him further. His gift might have even surpassed his great grandfather who was proclaimed to be a legend.
This young lad…..
“Young Master Qing looks to be very young. You should be about sixteen?”
Although the lad had a rather thin figure, but his looks and height was definitely around that of someone around fifteen or sixteen years of age.
Chapter 16.2: Little Monster from the Low Level Lands
Having been asked her age, Qing Yu was taken aback a moment but she then quickly answered with a smile: “I will be fourteen in another month.”
Completely oblivious to the kind of hurt that she was delivering onto Bai Zhi Yan.
So, it could be said that….. this lad was only thirteen years old?
Thirteen…..
Now I’ve seen everything.
“Then Young Master Qing, which location in Cloud Heaven do you reside in? I can see that you carry an unusual air around you and I would think that you must be from a famous family or nobility.”
“Cloud Heaven. Where is that place? I am native to the Green Wave Kingdom and have lived all my life on this land from birth.” The lad still had a smile on his face, as he answered the question that was almost bordering upon his personal privacy.
“…..” Bai Zhi Yan could find no words to say.
Leave me alone. I need quiet.
A monstrous thirteen year old, a little monster who was born and grew up in this lowly lands.
He just could not believe it. The little kid must have lied to him.
If that was really true, he as Bai Zhi Yan might as well die. Mm. There wouldn’t be a need for him to live anymore.
— Eternal Peace Duke’s Manor —
Upon a large sandalwood table, several exquisite looking and delicious food had been laid out with a circle of people seated around it.
On the main seat was the Head of the family, Yan Su, and in the two seats closest to him, sat the two most favoured and doted upon siblings, Yan Ning Luo and Yan Xi Cheng.
Subsequently, seated in a descending order, were the two charming and alluring Royal Concubines, their daughters, and then followed by the lady concubines.
The Duchess was not in good health and seldom came out from her own courtyard. Maybe only Yan Su himself knew that she had become utterly disappointed with him and was unwilling to see this big family of people she absolutely detested.
Yan Su’s eyes surveyed one round over the table and then opened his mouth to say: “Enjoy the meal!”
Yan Xi Cheng’s brows were however creased up. “Why do I not see Qing Yu and Qing Bei here?”
He had clearly asked the servants to go inform the Tranquil Abode.
“Little Cheng, what did you say?” Yan Su asked, looking at him doubtfully.
Besides Yan Xi Cheng and Yan Ning Luo whom he especially favoured, he couldn’t even remember the names of his other children. Hence when Yan Xi Cheng said that, he didn’t even know how to react towards what his son was saying.
Yan Ning Luo’s hand that was holding her chopsticks paused, her gaze narrowing slightly.
Why has Big Brother suddenly come to pay attention to those two people in the Tranquil Abode?
“Father, you’ve said it before. A family feast needs everyone to come attend but my younger siblings from the Tranquil Abode are not here yet.” Yan Xi Cheng said with his brows knitted up.
“Our heir, with those two little bastards, one is weak and timid, the other even a cripple. They have absolutely nothing to show for themselves. How can they eat at the same table as us! ?”
The person who spoke, looked to be about thirty years of age, her looks alluring and sexy, dressed in a long light green bustier dress, the two big lumps of flesh in front of her chest almost bursting out, highly eye catching.
At that moment, she was laughing coyly together with a lady concubine beside her, her demeanor highly nonchalant.
This woman was highly favoured and though she was previously a performing dancer, she had a glib tongue and knew how to win a person’s heart. Hence, Yan Su bestowed exceptional favour upon her.
That woman’s words might have been unintentional, but it caused both the faces of Yan Xi Cheng and Yan Su to immediately change.
“What audacity!” Yan Xi Cheng suddenly slammed his palm onto the table, giving the women who were laugh a great shock.
Especially the woman in the green dress, she looked completely stunned from fright.
“Our heir, I…..”
“Are the Young Masters and Young Misses of the Eternal Peace Duke’s Manor people you can criticize? You called them bastards, where does that then place my father the Duke!”
Yan Xi Cheng’s face was highly menacing, looking the way he did on the battlefield when facing the opposing army.
