AST 2211 - Got a Godson, Tai Yijian

“Yijian, don’t be rude,” The woman said softly at that time . She was very gentle even when she scolded her child .

Qing Shui smiled and said it was alright . Then, he looked at Tai Dashao, “You seem like a good father . ”

Tai Dashao showed an awkward smile and replied, “It’s his mother that is good . ”

Qing Shui recalled that he had collected some Growth Pills, Aptitude Pills, and Potential Pills . He took out some and handed them over to the young man, saying, “This is my gift to you . ”

Tai Yijian looked at Qing Shui . Then, he looked at Tai Dashao and his mother .

Tai Dashao smiled, “Quick, say thanks to your uncle . He is the strongest Alchemist your father has ever seen . ”

“Thank you, uncle!” Tai Yijian said happily .

“Do you want to become a strong warrior?” Qing Shui looked at the young man and asked .

“I want to! Very much!” Tai Yijian said with a straight face .

Qing Shui remembered the orphaned siblings as he saw this young man . They came and joined the Qing clan and now, they had become very strong as well . They treated Qing Shui like their own father . However, they had yet to figure out their own origin .

“You have a great aptitude . The Taiqing Immortal Palace would not be short of ways to breakthrough . The only thing that worries me is your foundation . Let me teach you some fist techniques . Every morning, you will spend two hours for training . Can you do that?” Qing Shui asked .

“Yes!” Tai Yijian was determined .

Qing Shui then taught him the Taichi Fist and the Yu Emperor Fist . He did not forget about Tai Dashao and the woman .

“Sister-in-law, you shall know by now . This is a great thing, but it requires a solid understanding of it . You can teach this to anyone . In fact, there are some people who already knew about this technique, but there aren’t many of them . However, there would probably be a lot of them in the future,” Qing Shui said with a smile .

“Thank you . I got it,” The woman said and nodded .

“Younger brother, I guess I’ll only be at my current level for my entire life; I won’t become a strong warrior . However, I do have a request . Can you promise me one thing?” Tai Dashao thought and said in a serious tone .

Qing Shui was surprised by Tai Dashao’s straightforwardness but he quickly nodded, “Say it . I’ll promise you if I can . ”

Qing Shui remembered the Star God Pendant . As long as it was not something too difficult, he would agree .

“I want you to take Jian`er as your godson,” Tai Dashao sounded solemn .

Qing Shui was perplexed . Even the woman was taken aback . The woman stared at Qing Shui intensely at this moment . She knew her man very well . Though he was foppish, he was very rational . Although his strength was just moderate, he had some perspectives . It seemed like this man was extraordinary, given that her husband held him in such high regard .

“You trust me that much?” Qing Shui asked .

“Haha . I may have no other abilities, but my eyes are fine,” Tai Dashao smirked .

“You won’t have any regrets?”

“Surely not,” Tai Dashao replied in all seriousness .

“Alright, I promise . I have more than five godchildren and a few students . It’s true that people trust me . They will meet each other when they grow up later,” Qing Shui smiled and said .

Tai Dashao smiled . He said, “It seems like there are many others who have eyes as bright as mine . ”

“Jian`er, meet your godfather . Next time you see him, treat him the same way you treat me,” Tai Dashao turned around and said to Tai Yijian .

Tai Yijian lived in a big clan and was experienced . At that time, he bowed to Qing Shui earnestly . After the kowtow session, Qing Shui carried him up, “Jian`er, from now onwards, you are my godson . I don’t care how you act in your clan, but I wish you will remember something in the future . Have a kind heart and don’t do any unethical things that cross the line . ”

“I will,” Tai Yijian’s said solemnly; his young face looked tensed up .

Qing Shui patted his head, “Don’t be so tense . The rules are quite loose . This is for you . Take it as your welcome gift . However, remember not to rely on it and only use it if you’re in grave danger . ”

The gift was the Sacred Jade Divine Stone Ring . Previously, Qing Shui got a large piece of it . Now, Qing Shui made some rings from the stone and now, Tai Yijian owned one . Qing Shui also told him how to use it and advised him not to be dependant on it too much .

Tai Yijian was very bright; he got used to the way of using it soon . Again, he told Qing Shui seriously, “I won’t rely on it . ”

Tai Dashao appeared hopeful and full of aspirations . This item was very rare . Even the Taiqing Immortal Palace did not have such a good item . Nevertheless, he said nothing despite his interest in the item . It was the most pleasant thing that his son could obtain one since Tai Yijian would rule the Taiqing Immortal Palace in the future . If there were no accidents, he would become the head of the Tai clan .

“You don’t have strength so take one to protect yourself . I don’t have many . I can’t give you any more than this,” Qing Shui cordially said and gave one to Tai Dashao .

Tai Dashao did not accept, “It is too precious and you’ve said it yourself . You don’t have many . You have already given one to Jian`er . I’m not taking this . Plus, since my strength is weak, nobody would bother to touch me . ”

“Stop the nonsense and take it when I give it to you . Remember to take every advantage possible . Otherwise, you won’t get it next time,” Qing Shui stuffed it into his hand .

Tai Dashao looked at Qing Shui gratefully, “I have nothing for you in return . I guess you won’t even want the ones that I have . ”

“The pendant that you gave me last time is now with Beihuang Fan . It is comparable to this ring . Now, you can be assured,” Qing Shui said .

“Don’t say that just to comfort me,” Tai Dashao retorted .

“Fine . Then I’m comforting you no more . Give it back to me, I’m not giving you any more,” Qing Shui held out his hand and said .

“Forget it . It is already in my hands . If I return it to you, you will be upset . I’ll keep it . ” 

Tai Dashao was delighted after getting it . Qing Shui gave some training items to Tai Yijian, including a pair of clothes and weapons for forging, and some books on the Nine Animals Mimicry Technique . Qing Shui told him to choose the one that he liked the most and try his best in a week’s time .

Then, Tai Dashao dragged Qing Shui to meet the rest of his family .

Tai Dashao was the only son in his generation . However, there were many daughters, somewhere around a hundred or less of them . That was after many of them had died . In his father’s generation, there were about thirty members . Besides, they were all strong warriors . Around thirty of them had managed to survive until now .

In his grandfather’s generation, there were more than ten members . On top of that, there were three more generations . Yet, only about ten members were still among the living . These members were the actual pillars of the Taiqing Immortal Palace . Usually, they did not take part in the social affairs unless there was an unresolved issue in the Taiqing Immortal Palace .

Tai Dashao led Qing Shui to meet his father, a cultured and middle-aged man . He was very mature-looking . He somehow seemed to be younger than Tai Dashao .

This situation was not a big deal . It was very normal in the Main Continents .

“Nice to meet you, uncle!” As a junior, Qing Shui greeted him .

“Don’t be too formal . Treat this place like your own house . It is Dashao’s fortune to have a friend like you . ” The man was very hospitable as he gestured Qing Shui to have a seat .

After a while, a beautiful lady entered the room . It was Tai Dashao’s mother . They greeted each other again .

As for Qing Shui, Tai Dashao’s father seemed to know about him . The Taiqing Immortal Palace should have known what kind of person Tai Dashao was in touch with .

“It is the fortune of both parties to be friends . There isn’t anyone who is more advantageous . Otherwise, the friendship won’t last long,” Qing Shui smiled as he replied .

“You’re right, but it is hard to make friends these days . It is a luxury to have one true friend in one’s entire life . In fact, many people don’t even have a true friend in their whole lives . When you are at your peak, you might have a bunch of friends . Once you fail, it is considered fortunate if they don’t strike you while you’re down,” The man said emotionally .
