AST 2404 - Heartmatched Fruit, News of Tantai Lingyan

In the blink of an eye, it had been three days since Qing Shui arrived at the Forsaken Heaven City . He planned to stay here temporarily and had inquired widely about the situation in the Forsaken Heaven City . The Forsaken Heaven City was different from other places since they could meet people who came from the Upper Three Regions .

In other places, even in an existence like Zhongyuan City, there wouldn’t be any individuals or influences from the Upper Three Regions . At the very least, it’d appear as if there weren’t any .

Both the Divine Palace and Demon Gate were present in the Forsaken Heaven City, and they were extremely powerful, among the top influences here . Another shocking piece of news that Qing Shui obtained was that it was very likely for Tantai Lingyan to be there . It was because the Demon Gate branches had been merged recently .

To be able to merge an organization like the Demon Gate in a place the Forsaken Heaven City, Qing Shui was basically certain that Tantai Lingyan had come .

Qing Shui wanted to look for Tantai Lingyan immediately . He had the confidence in defeating anyone in the Forsaken Heaven City . Of course, he wasn't planning to kill Tantai Lingyan . That woman had become very distant and Qing Shui wasn't sure if he would be able to help her recall her memories .

She was extremely cold now, but she was very kind in the past . It was just that she was no longer the person she used to be . The demonic nature in her body had caused her to undergo changes . The Demon Saint Blood was extremely dominating and Qing Shui wasn't sure how he could negate it .

Qing Shui took out the Heartmatched Fruits .

They were two bright red fruits that were glistening and tender . Qing Shui had kept them all this while . He had gotten these fruits in the past and he felt that he would never use them in this lifetime . It was because he didn't want to use Heartmatched Fruits to get a woman's love .

He looked at the Heartmatched Fruits . He had no idea if he would use them . The Heartmatched Fruits wouldn't affect anything about the person, but just make the two people who used the fruits to fall deeply in love with each other .

Qing Shui wanted to use the Heartmatched Fruits to help her regain her memories . If it couldn't be done, then the Heartmatched Fruits might cause great damage . It was because both parties would fall deeply in love with each other . It would be an irrational love . If that happened, two possible situations could occur . The first one would be that Tantai Lingyan would leave the Demon Gate for Qing Shui .

Another possibility would be that Qing Shui would throw away everything for Tantai Lingyan, and even join the Demon Gate .

Qing Shui kept the Heartmatched Fruits . He had no idea if they would be so domineering . If he had a choice, he didn't wish to use them . He would only try them if there were no other way . He felt that the chances of being able to restore Tantai Lingyan's memories were very high .

Two days later, Nuo Lan found Qing Shui .

"Sister Nuo Lan, take a seat . Do you have something to say?" Qing Shui got Nuo Lan to sit down .

"Things are already clear . She is now the Demon Gate's Sect Leader . Moreover, the Divine Palace here is unable to stand against them . They fought once, half a month ago and the Divine Palace's Palace Lord was hurt," Nuo Lan said .

Qing Shui frowned and said after a while, "I got it!"

After lunch, Qing Shui left by himself and headed north . They were still very far away from the Divine Palace . After all, the Forsaken Heaven City was very big and each great influence had their own domains .

Not long after, Qing Shui saw the Divine Palace .

The Divine Palace was built on the local Sky Mountain . There was a Sky Mountain in Forsaken Heaven City and it was the largest mountain range there; it meandered like a huge dragon . The Divine Palace wasn't the only one built on the Sky Mountain . All major influences were basically based there after all, just at different parts of the mountain .  

The Sky Mountain was considered to be a Spiritual Spring . A sect could be built where a Spiritual Spring could be found .

The mountain was very big and the peak was extremely vast, just like a plateau . This showed how vast the Sky Mountain was .

The Divine Palace's buildings were also very tall . They weren't many pavilion buildings and was more like a palace .

Their colors were rustic and impressive . Currently, the Divine Palace was filled with an oppressed feeling . Even Qing Shui could feel it while standing far away .

There were four men on guard—two middle-aged men and two young men . When they saw Qing Shui's sudden appearance, they immediately stopped him and asked, "Who are you? What matters bring you here?"

The person who stepped forth was a middle-aged man . He was very strong, with a goatee and appeared very valiant . He had a pair of big cowlike eyes .

"I'm here to meet your Palace Lord . I'm a physician," Qing Shui said .

"Our Palace Lord won't meet anyone . Please go back," The man said directly .

"I'm a Battle God . I can cure him . I'll also help your Divine Palace to fend off the Demon Gate . Go tell this to your Palace Lord," Qing Shui said directly .

The man wanted to say something but another man who appeared more scholarly smiled and said, "Then please wait for a while . I'll go in and notify him . "

Qing Shui didn't wait for long before that man returned . Not only did he return, but there were also three men behind him . One of them was an elderly with white sideburns and bright eyes like stars . He had a mysterious disposition which made it easy for one to have a good impression of him .

The remaining two were middle-aged men with mediocre looks . However, both of them appeared mature and reliable, seemingly with good skills . One of them wore a battle armor while the other wore a silver robe .

All three of them were Battle Gods .

When the old man saw Qing Shui, he frowned slightly, thinking that Qing Shui was too young .

"How may I address you?" The man smiled and asked . He could sense Qing Shui's Battle God's aura and as long as the person was a Battle God, there were basically no issues with loyalty .

This was how things were like between the Divine Palace and Demon Gate . It was hard for there to be traitors, such as for someone from the Divine Palace to be a spy in the Demon Gate . They wouldn't be able to hide their auras and there were also marks from the legacies they inherited . The price to pay for betrayal was huge and one would receive the backlash from the legacy and might even ended up being crippled .

"I'm Qing Shui . I've arrived at Forsaken Heaven City five days ago . I know medical skills and am aware that someone here is injured . Therefore, I've come to take a look . " Qing Shui said seriously .

"Old Master's injuries are a little serious . Do you know why the Demon Gate didn't continue to give chase? It's because he can't be saved . " The old man didn't feel agitated after hearing Qing Shui's words .

"As long as he is still alive, I can help him recover," Qing Shui said confidently .

“I know that you guys don't really trust me, but it's fine . You should have looked for quite a number of physicians as well . I'm also a Battle God, so there shouldn't be an issue with my identity, right?" Qing Shui said this casually .

"I'm Zhuang Zhouyan . As for the two of them, this person who always likes to look cool and wears silver is Chen Feng . This person who always wears a battle armor is Zhang Dali," The old man gave an introduction to Qing Shui .

Qing Shui shook hands with the two of them, saying, "Hello!"

He also shook hands with the old man and the four of them walked toward a palace building . They passed by quite a number of Battle gods on the way and all of them were generally more powerful than the ones Qing Shui had encountered in the past . However, the Battle Gods around Qing Shui had also gradually gotten stronger and were now a lot stronger than most of the people here .

They had just arrived at the door when they say an old man leaving with his medical kit, sighing . The person who sent him out was a man who was frowning and wearing yellow robes . He was emitting a sharp and imposing aura .

"Tai Lei, send off Physician Bai," The man looked at a young man and said .

"No need . I'm fine by myself . " the old man waved his hand and left while carrying his medical kit .

At that moment, the man saw Zhuang Zhouyan and said, "Uncle Yan, these physicians aren't able to do anything . The Palace Lord's situation isn't good . "

"Sigh, Mister Qing says that he can treat him . Let him give it a try!" Zhuang Zhouyan said to the man .

The man looked at Qing Shui and said, "Mister Qing, please follow me . "
