AST 791 – Seventh Level of Soulshake Bell, A Valuable TreasureElementary Martial King was ten times stronger than a Peak Xiantian martial warrior. This was no difference for the promotion of each cultivation stage – Houtian, Xiantian, Martial King and Martial Saint – as a cultivator would always gain ten times the power after breaking through to the next cultivation stage. The benefit was irresistible but it would be extremely difficult and costly for a cultivator to reach a breakthrough.
“Hahaha!”
Qing You erupted in laughter after he had been saturated with an abundance of energy from the surroundings. Not only had his wounds completely healed, the increase of his power had made him seem more masculine as well.
“I have reached a breakthrough, Brother Qing Shui.” Qing You’s eyes shone with a fire of excitement as well as the display of a modest yet unreserved love between two brothers.
Qing Shui was undeniably happy for Qing You. There was no need for words of gratitude between a family as it would be deemed disrespectful towards each other. The feelings of gratitude should always be kept inside the heart instead. There was a reason why parents would never say words of gratitude towards their children but would do anything to protect them in dire situations and why true lovers would die for each other – it was because of love, a form of extreme affection that could overpower a person beyond comprehension.
The love of a family was priceless!
The only one thing Qing Shui would never sacrifice was the love for his family, which was why he would always cherish each member of the Qing Clan for eternity. Romance and friendship would eventually be on the same level of as family love when they had reached the highest level of affection.
“Try to stabilize your power in the meantime, don’t rush for another boost to your power too quickly.” Qing Shui patted on Qing You’s shoulder as he gave advice. Qing You was now half a head taller than Qing Shui. Both him and Qing Zi were now the tallest members of the Qing Clan.
“Okay, I understand.” Qing You was almost carried away in a moment of excitement.
……….
After a week had passed, Cang Wuya, Fei Wuji and Bai Gui had finally made it back to the Heavenly Palace. They sighed a breath of relief when they saw that the Heavenly Palace had completed its restoration. Having witnessed Qing Shui’s ability to destroy the entire Eastern Palace Aristocrat Clan, they had no concern about the potential subjugation of the Baima Aristocrat Clan on the Heavenly Palace.
With Fei Wuji’s personal matters solved, Elder Ge organized a grand feast in the Heavenly Palace as a celebration of the defeat of the Eastern Palace Aristocrat Clan. He had also approved a three-day holiday for everyone in the Heavenly Palace as they continued to celebrate with great food and tasty wine, hoping that the late Old Ancestor would be able to rest in peace with this final closure.
Everyone felt cheerful as they celebrated with a gleeful heart. To be honest, Qing Shui wasn’t worried at all. Luan Luan had finally become of great assistance to Qing Shui, which was what she had aimed to achieve. He could rest assured knowing that he wouldn’t be fighting alone in future battles anymore.
Qing Shui could still remember what she said to him after her demonic beasts had a breakthrough: “Am I good enough to help daddy now?”
When she finally had Qing Shui’s approval, Luan Luan hugged him immediately with a happy expression. She kept on saying that Qing Shui wouldn’t have to be very tired most of the time and that he wouldn’t have to try extremely hard to protect the whole family by himself……
