Soaring of Galaxia

Mu Rong Xu did not wish to seem overly anxious, yet she did want him to know the matters on her mind. She hesitated, not knowing whether she should speak or not.

Upon seeing Mu Rong Xu’s hesitation, Qin Wushuang looked at her with a sincere gaze. He grabbed Mu Rong Xu’s hands and said emotionally, "Xu’Er, you have been working hard to help me. Now, regardless of the difficulty, let me take some of your burden, ok?"

Meeting with Qin Wushuang’s fervent eyes, Mu Rong Xu’s affectionate young heart melted completely. She nodded, "Brother Qin, I have another layer of worry deep within. It’s because this marriage was set by my grandfather and I am the only child to my father’s bloodline. It’s because father has mesmerized himself with the art of the sword and does not have any other children. Now at the Floating Snow House, besides my father, there is another uncle who is on par with my father in terms of strength. The other two uncles of the clan possess less strength and have been exerting all their efforts to marry me out of the Floating Snow House. I am worried that when they learn I have fallen in love with you, they will do anything in their power to keep us from being together. I am not afraid of them, but I am afraid they will put pressure on my father and make things difficult for him."

Qin Wushuang finished listening and maintained an undisturbed mind. After a moment of thinking, he asked Mu Rong Xu, "Xu’Er, if they would interfere between us, certainly it’s only because I am the disciple of the Qin Clan, right?"

"Yes," Mu Rong Xu gave a light nod. "Now all of them are stubbornly thinking that the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan is going downhill. And in the future, they will for sure get kicked out of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain by the Sound of Thunder Sect and the Heavenly Punishing Villa."

Qin Wushuang revealed a light smile as a trace of proudness had revealed on the corner of his mouth."Xu’Er, in your heart, what do you think the fate of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan will be?"

Mu Rong Xu said with conscientious, "Of course, in my heart, I know you will become the hero of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain and defeat the odds. Even now everything you are doing is progressing you towards this direction. I trust my eyes!"

"Brother Qin, you can do it," Mu Rong Xu added with a determined tone.

Qin Wushuang revealed a light smile. "Xu’Er, I promise you, not only will I make them change their biased view, I will go to the Floating Snow House and escort you in a grand wedding ceremony, full of glory and splendor. Everyone of the Floating Snow House will be proud of you and regret their assumptions."

Joyful lights flashed across Mu Rong Xu’s eyes as she felt incredibly touched by his words. She held onto Qin Wushuang’s thick palm. "Brother Qin, even without these, as long as I can be with you, I am not afraid of any difficulties to come."

The two of them were connected through their mutual feelings and without the slightest of doubts. They only shared one goal and that would be to sweep away all obstacles that lay in front of them.

Of course, these obstacles were not so easily swept away.

"Brother Qin, although we share the same feelings, I cannot go back to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan with you at this moment. Can you understand this?" Mu Rong Xu raised her head and asked.

Of course Qin Wushuang understood. Even though they were in love, they were after all without official status. With Mu Rong Xu being a princess of a major household, of course she could not accompany him to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan freely. Or else it would be inevitable that outsiders would look down on the reputation of the Floating Snow House."

"Xu’Er, I understand your intentions. I will meet with your father at the Judgement Mountain prefecture. After I return to the Heavenly Emperor Mountain and report to the Chief, I will pay a visit to Lord Mu Rong at the Floating Snow House."

Mu Rong Xu was brimming with delightfulness from the bottom of her heart. "Brother Qin, I am just afraid of holding you up with your official business."

"Xu’Er, this time when I go to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, I do not carry any major missions. If there were any missions, it would be to speed up my training. I will want to share the tribulations of the Qin Clan as soon as possible."

"Brother Qin, don’t act with undue haste. The road ahead of you is still long even with your age. It’s already wonderful for you to achieve this stage. Now, even I cannot be your opponent."

Mu Rong Xu was full of pride. She remembered how when she first met with Qin Wushuang, he only had the strength of the Middle Stage of Spiritual Martial Force. In a few years, he had trained to achieve the peak of the Transformation Void Martial Stage and would break into the Profound Void Martial Stage at any moment. Mu Rong Xu, had started training at a young age and up to this point she was only at the Transformation Void Martial Stage herself.

Upon remembering the situation when she first encountered him at the human countries, Mu Rong Xu was bursting with another surge of happiness. As short segments of the past kept emerging from her head, each detail appeared splendid.

A sense of happiness aroused involuntarily.

Seeing Mu Rong Xu reveal a young girl’s naive and innocent look, Qin Wushuang realized her youth. In fact, Mu Rong Xu’ was two years younger than him. Yet the burden she was shouldering at such a young age was formidable. Thinking of this point, he had grown an unbounded tender affection for her and would protect this touching girl, not letting her suffer any future hardships.

"Brother Qin, tomorrow I will be returning to the Floating Snow House with Little Bamboo. I will await for your return day and night. Ok?" Mu Rong Xu asked Qin Wushuang with a picturesque face.

"Ok. When you arrive, I will be there immediately after," Qin Wushuang promised her.

"Brother Qin..." Mu Rong Xu stopped for a moment. "When you arrive, if anyone from the Floating Snow House is showing disrespect through their words, could you try ignoring it?"

Qin Wushuang laughed. "Xu’Er, no need to instruct me on this, I know. For all the necessary courtesy, I will act with thorough consideration."

Upon seeing Qin Wushuang show consideration and mutual understanding, Mu Rong Xu laughed. "I’m not asking you to suffer in silence. If they cross the line, don’t step back too much. Just don’t take the initiative to hold the grudge against them. I do not want them to bully you."

Qin Wushuang laughed, "Ok, I will do just as you say."

After making the promise, Mu Rong Xu felt much more relaxed. To her, it would be at least half a month’s journey to the Floating Snow House.

Qin Wushuang was rather worried and suspected that the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect would retaliate. Instantly, he said to Mu Rong Xu, "Xu’Er, since you filed a lawsuit against the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, I am worried they will act against you. I will send you off tomorrow morning."

Of course Mu Rong Xu did not mind as she could spend more time with Qin Wushuang.

...

After returning to the Aspiring Throne Mountain, Qin Wushuang went to find Qin Chongyang.

Qin Chongyang laughed, "You are back already? Did you not see miss Mu Rong off?"

Qin Wushuang explained the situation and Qin Chongyang laughed. "Now you can enjoy the treatment of a core disciple. You don’t need to report any of your actions. You can just act on your own. Even if you are to leave the Aspiring Throne Mountain, you just need to report through the communication jade plate."

"Third Chief, I have something to say, but I don’t know if I should say it."

Qin Chongyang stated, "This is the Upright Morality Hall, just say what is on your mind."

"Very well. At the Heavenly Emperor Gate, the Heavenly Emperor stood remote and aloof in which I could not see through him. It seems that the Heavenly Emperor does not hold any specific position. Yet I always had this strange feeling, that his majesty seemed to hold a standpoint. And this standpoint does not work to the advantage of our Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan."

Qin Chongyang was slightly surprised and he looked at Qin Wushuang with astonishment. He withdrew a breath of cold air and said, "Wushuang, did you come to this conclusion through your own observation, or are you just speaking of randomness?"

"This is my intuition, but I don’t know if it’s reliable."

Qin Chongyang gave a long sigh and did not utter a single word. After a long silence, he looked at Qin Wushuang with a pair of dignified eyes and instructed solemnly, "Wushuang, you must remember to never mention this matter to others. You will just keep it to yourself."

Inwardly, Qin Wushuang’s heart thumped. He knew, his assumption was correct.

Through weighing his words and observing his facial expression, Qin Chongyang knew that Qin Wushuang was intelligent. After some verification, he gave a long sigh, "Wushuang, do you think that the Sound of Thunder Sect and the Heavenly Punishing Villa alone were capable of suppressing the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan and making us unable to move? If the standpoint of the Heavenly Emperor Gate had not gone sideways, how could my Qin Clan endure silently? And despite retreating in defeat, step after step, we did not bounce back forcefully?"

"Could it be that all of this was caused by the standpoint of the Heavenly Emperor Gate?" Qin Wushuang was feeling apprehensive inside.

"Don’t forget, the last generation of the Heavenly Emperor Gate was the Qin Clan and not the Xin Clan! Among the other seven Heavenly Emperor Gates of the Mountain, Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan was the one, despite their situation, that was feared the most! Therefore, the Heavenly Emperor Gate will never stand on the side of the Qin Clan. They are always full of caution because of the previous generation."

Qin Wushuang fell into silence. He felt that indeed, the Qin Clan was in a bad situation. Even the ruler of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain was acting fair on the surface, but pushing them to the side in the dark. It was obvious to see their situation.

"Wushuang, you have innate talent and intelligence. In the future, you must refrain from showing off your abilities at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain and do not let the Heavenly Emperor Gate feel threatened by your existence. If you make the Heavenly Emperor Gate feel restless, you will suffer. Of course, I am not encouraging you to not behave yourself by tucking your tail between your legs, but to act cautiously with all matters. This will help you stay alive."

Qin Wushuang stayed in silence. Although Qin Chongyang was an elder he looked up to, he did not know how to respond to his words.

His personality and style had always been to know when things must be done and when things must not be done. If the matter could not go unnoticed, he would speak out. Asking him to ignore certain things would never be Qin Wushuang’s style.

Of course, it’s not because Qin Wushuang could not remain silent. For example, when he dealt with the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect, he had remained impressively silent. However, this had seemed appropriate to the situation.

Upon seeing Qin Wushuang not nodding, Qin Chongyang did not blame him. Instead, he felt rather gratified to some extent. It’s because this was the aspect Qin Wushuang possessed that was different from the other core disciples.

He would never do something half-heartedly. At any moment, he would not give up his own principles. It was the same when he was facing Supreme Dao elite warriors.

Perhaps, because of this form of strong mentality and confidence, it had allowed him to stand out from the masses?

Thinking this way, Qin Chongyang thought that regardless, Qin Wushuang would be worth the expectation! He was a completely different and unusual chess piece compared to the other core disciples.

Despite been a Supreme Dao warrior, he could not even predict the potential possessed by this kid. He could only describe it with two words: profound and unmeasurable!

After he returned to the Ascending Dragon Slope, Qin Wushuang took out the Sealed Scrolls again. This was the first time he was going to use it since escaping from his dire situation.

Now, he was at the peak of the Transformation Void Martial Stage. Compared to the previous Transformation Void Martial Stage, his summoning level had upgraded. He could easily summon spiritual beasts of the Perfect Void Martial Stage.

When he took out the Sealed Scrolls, instantly he felt a difference. This Sealed Scroll was in fact, filled with spiritual movements!

What was going on? Qin Wushuang was stunned and could sense something stirring. Then, he understood what was going on. This layer of spiritual movement on the surface was identical to the spiritual Qi from the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect’s ley lines. In other words, this Sealed Scroll had took the initiative and absorbed countless spiritual Qi from the ley lines.

It had allowed the sealed spiritual beasts’ scrolls to appear even more dazzling and full of vitality.
