AST 1677 - Things Aren't Over

Boom boom . . .

A series of explosive sounds rang out up above and air currents gushed through the sky . It was a pity for the Dark Phoenix that his opponent had only been inflicted with some minor injuries . The Dark Phoenix was very resistant toward attacks, but his attacking prowess wasn't that high . However, while in the Nine Phantom condition, its attack still wasn't considered bad .

The result of the battle was decided . The battle had ended . Qing Shui didn't leave any of them alive . The old man had taken his own life while the other two had been killed by Long Zhu`er and by Qing Shui .

This time around, the Demonic Saber Immortal Sect lost three powerful cultivators . Plus the ones from before, they had really lost a lot . Right now, the Demonic Saber Immortal Sect wasn't only at the level of suffering from fractures or pulled muscles . Their situation could be compared to having lost an arm or something that was even more serious .

Yin Sha, Qingfeng, Mingyue and the others hadn't taken part in this fight . When Qing Shui came down, when he saw their agitated expressions, he smiled, "Aunt Feng, thankfully we managed to tide through this . "

At this moment, Feng Xi was so happy that her feelings couldn't be described using words . She reached out her hand to pat Qing Shui on the shoulder, unable to say anything . She wasn't the only one like this . Even Yin Tian and Old Wang were the same .

It was because they knew that it would be too excessive for them to offer their thanks . In such a situation, saying thanks wasn't enough for them to express themselves . Therefore, it was better off for them to not say anything .

Tantai Lingyan looked at Qing Shui and smiled happily with a soft gaze, "Did you get hurt?"

Qing Shui went up to embrace Tantai Lingyan . When everyone saw this couple, they really thought that the two of them were a match made in heaven, and were looking at them with warm smiles . They hoped from the bottom of their hearts that Qing Shui and Tantai Lingyan would be the most blissful they could be .

"How could I? Your husband's body is very strong . " Qing Shui whispered to her ears softly and said, smiling .

Tantai Lingyan had been with Qing Shui for a long time and knew that this guy must have a hidden meaning behind his words . However, it was in moments like this that she felt happier . It meant that he was really fine .

"They know that you're my husband . There's no need to keep re-emphasizing it . " Tantai Lingyan said .

"I'm not saying this for them . Be good, come, call me husband . " Qing Shui smiled and said .

Many of Qing Shui's women knew this address and what it meant . [1] Qing Shui had been to a lot of places in this world, but hadn't heard of anyone using the exact same term .  

"Cut that out, or else, I'll beat you . " Tantai Lingyan said in a soft voice .

"Hitting someone means that you care for them . There's no need to go to the trouble . Just a kiss will do . " Qing Shui enjoyed the warmth between them now .

"Alright, they're all around . Be good . " Tantai Lingyan said softly .

Her tone, as if she was pacifying a child, seemed to have an amazing charm . Qing Shui was stunned for a moment and then broke out into a smile and whispered next to her ear, "In the future, when we have a kid of our own, I must have a look at the sight of you carrying the kid . It'll definitely be very beautiful . "

Tantai Lingyan's heart skipped a beat and she pushed away Qing Shui, a face a little flushed . She glared at Qing Shui and walked over to Feng Xi, feeling embarrassed .

"Did he bully you? Let Godmother stand up for you . " Feng Xi smiled and asked Tantai Lingyan .

"Aunt Feng, I can't bear to bully her . Let's head back first . " Qing Shui proposed . They had been standing here for very long and there were already people who had started to clean up the scene .

No one had any objections . Feng Xi waved toward the people from the Divine Moon Immortal Sect who were in the surrounding, indicating for them to be dispersed . This battle had raised the morale of the people from the Divine Moon Immortal Sect by a lot and they were now full of confidence in life . Earlier, they had to put in a lot of determination to decide to stay . It hadn't been that easy . Right now, not even 1% of the Divine Moon Immortal Sect's members had stayed . 99% of them had already left .

There were still quite a number of them who had stayed since the massive Divine Moon Immortal Sect had quite a large number of members . Even 1% of them all was still a considerable number . These were the core disciples and those who could stay, would further become the greater core members amongst the core .

Humans needed hope . Without hope, all would be gloomy; with hope, it was as if there was a sun and the entire world would become slightly brighter .

Throughout the day, lively and happy sounds came from the Divine Moon Immortal Sect . The people who had came from the Demonic Saber Immortal Sect had basically all died . However, Qing Shui guessed that there might have been two or three of them who had managed to return to the Demonic Saber Immortal Sect to give their reports .

Qing Shui washed up and then since it was about time, everyone had their meal together . This time around, they didn't say anything about the Demonic Saber Immortal Sect anymore and purely had their meal . It was because, right now, Qing Shui was the only one who could handle the situation . All the rest of them weren't strong enough . Since they didn't have the capability, then there wasn't a need for them to bring up the matter .

The meal ended very quickly . After they were done with their meal, Qing Shui and Tantai Lingyan took their leave . Time was getting increasingly precious as no one knew what would happen next . This time was what Qing Shui had fought for them, and it was extremely precious . All the others knew that right now, Qing Shui and Tantai Lingyan didn't wish to be disturbed .

"This matter shouldn't be over yet . Qing Shui, I'm very worried . " Tantai Lingyan walked next to Qing Shui as they headed back to their place .

Qing Shui took her warm hand and shook his head, "You must be confident in your man . "

"I'm being serious . Can you be a little more serious?" Tantai Lingyan said angrily .

"Earlier on, that old man said that he is from the top three in the Demonic Saber Immortal Sect . I don't know if he's the third, but he's definitely not the first . Therefore, the Demonic Saber Immortal Sect definitely still have other experts . However, they might not necessarily come . " Qing Shui gave it some thought and said .

"The Demonic Saber Immortal Sect's losses are considered to be great as well . Would they be willing to bear with this loss?" Tantai Lingyan shook her head, disagreeing .

"It's never too late for a gentleman to seek revenge after ten years . These people aren't gentlemen and thus it wouldn't be considered long even if they were to come back 800 or even 1,000 years later . I won't be surprised even if they don't seek revenge either . They still have their family . The more the situation turned out like this, the more they wouldn't be willing to risk it . It's because if they end up losing, they would lose everything . What do you think?" Qing Shui smiled and said .

Tantai Lingyan was a little stunned . She thought of herself and the Five Tiger Immortal Sect . It had been so many years . Although she knew that the Five Tiger Immortal Sect was involved, if she were to go now, she'd be courting death . Therefore, it wasn't an intelligent decision . Moreover, she now had a little bit more things that she was concerned about .

"Then are we going to keep staying here? If we are no longer here, do you think that they'll vent their anger on Godmother and the others?"

"They aren't idiots . Moreover, in most situations, people wouldn't bring the family into the picture . This is especially when they aren't clear of the situation yet . If required, yes, it makes sense to get rid of everyone completely, removing even the roots . If I'm not dead, then they wouldn't be that foolish to try to wipe out the Divine Moon Immortal Sect . " Qing Shui said with great confidence .

"That's true . Then do you think that we can already leave?" Tantai Lingyan smiled and said .

She now had more a lot more smiles on her face, and Qing Shui was often able to see her smile that was like the winter's sunlight, emerging from the blossoming flowers . However, Qing Shui was the only one who could see this smile . It was only when she was with Qing Shui that her smile would be the most sincere, and it was so beautiful that it could even bring the fall of a city .

Qing Shui was a little in a daze as he looked at her unparalleled beauty that was just right before him . He didn't feel any greed, but there was love that was deep as the ocean, seeping right down to his bones . Tantai Lingyan felt a little uneasy when Qing Shui was looking at her like this .
