Chapter 613 - 338: How About Giving Me One More?

Chapter 613: Chapter 338: How About Giving Me One More?

Meeting Ouyang Tianxu was a part of the original plan.

However, after hearing what Chu Qing said, Liu Zhaonian instinctively responded:

"I’ll go with you, nephew."

Chu Qing shook his head:

"If both mansions go to Celestial Sound Mansion together, there will be too many eyes and ears. If Han Qiujun sees you at this time, it might cause more trouble."

Liu Zhaonian sighed upon hearing this:

"I understand, with your martial arts skills, you should be able to come and go freely.

"But whether it’s Ouyang Tianxu or Han Qiujun, they’re both old foxes, not simple characters.

"Even though your martial arts are strong, you must not underestimate them."

"Don’t worry."

Chu Qing nodded, then asked:

"About that Ning Wufang..."

"According to your instructions, the message has been sent.

"However, there has been no movement from him so far."

"I guess, by tonight at the latest... Uncle, you should send another message saying that I have found a box of things from the Divine Sound Waterfall, but I don’t know exactly what it is. From the noise, the items inside the box seem very fragmented.

"These items are currently on me..."

"No!"

Liu Zhaonian shook his head:

"There are still experts from the Mirror of Sin who want to assassinate you. If you also lead people from the Celestial Evil Cult to you... I’m afraid you’ll be overwhelmed.

"Leave this matter to me, just say that the items are in my possession."

"But if we do as you say, they might not make a move to seize them."

Chu Qing sighed:

"The relationship between you and me is unknown to others.

"So, it is best to keep these items on me. In their view, once the Celestial Sound Mansion falls, if I am not dead, I will inevitably leave.

"Once these items flow into the martial world, it will be more troublesome for them to retrieve them.

"Therefore... the best way is to act immediately, using the current turmoil to minimize variables.

"But if they are with you, once the Celestial Sound Mansion falls, you will not run away... so it is only a matter of time before these items fall into their hands."

Liu Zhaonian carefully thought through Chu Qing’s words and found them reasonable upon further analysis.

As the Mansion Master of the Celestial Sound Mansion, how could he flee alone when disaster strikes?

But Chu Qing was different. As someone who entered the Celestial Sound Mansion under Han San’s identity, everyone only thought of him as Liu Qingyan’s friend. Who would have thought he was his own nephew?

He would not share the fate of the Celestial Sound Mansion... it is only natural to flee when disaster strikes.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhaonian looked at Chu Qing helplessly and sighed:

"It is useless as an uncle. In this meeting, not only can’t I help you, but you have helped me instead."

"I beg to differ with you on that..."

Chu Qing smiled and said:

"After all, aren’t we all family?"

During the day, Chu Qing still had many things to do. The situation with Han Yiren had already occurred, and Chu Qing had to go ask about the specific situation.

Just as Chu Qing expected, the instructions given by the Celestial Evil Cult this time were comprehensive.

Of course, this comprehensiveness was relative.

The words were still cold, and the content on the slip of paper was extremely brief.

First, they instructed Han Yiren to say goodbye to Liu Zhaonian, and then they specified a location named ’Qingquan Gorge.’

This place is less than ten miles away from Celestial Melody City.

If Han Yiren leaves the Celestial Sound Mansion early tomorrow, he will undoubtedly be intercepted by people from the Celestial Evil Cult, masquerading as people from the Celestial Sound Mansion to wipe them out.

The people from the two mansions will head to the Celestial Sound Mansion, passing through this place. Then they will hear a surviving person use their last breath to tell them:

"The people who killed them were from the Celestial Sound Mansion, and they have already colluded with the Celestial Evil Cult."

Then the Celestial Sound Mansion is like mud falling into one’s pants—no matter what, it looks bad.

If Han Yiren had seen such instructions before knowing the truth from Chu Qing, he might not have been worried.

But after learning the truth from Chu Qing, when Han Yiren looked at the slip of instructions again, he felt it was nothing short of a death warrant from King Yama.

When Chu Qing came to him, his hand shook as he handed over the slip of paper.

Seeing this, Chu Qing smiled:

"Don’t worry, nothing will happen."

"After this matter, everyone in Small Cold Valley will be at your disposal, young master! This time, we’re counting on you!"

Han Yiren spoke with genuine emotion.

Chu Qing looked at him and nodded gently:

"Alright."

After leaving Han Yiren, Chu Qing went to find Liu Zhaonian again.

The two of them closed the door to discuss; once Chu Qing left his study, he headed straight for the Divine Sound Waterfall.

Currently, the security around the Divine Sound Waterfall was tight.

However, Liu Zhaonian had long given the order that Chu Qing could move freely within the Celestial Sound Mansion. No place was off-limits to him.

So Chu Qing marched in without any obstruction.

The Divine Sound Waterfall was not large, but its peculiarity lay in the sound of the falling water. It seemed that the difference in height caused the sound of the water splashing to vary.

The interwoven sounds formed a melody, like a natural symphony. However, this tune was like a storm; upon first hearing it, one felt as if in the middle of an ocean, engulfed by stormy waves and thunder, truly awe-inspiring.

After listening long enough, one would feel agitated, as if their spiritual will was swept away by the sound.

Moreover, even inner strength could become unsteady.

The ancestors of the Liu Family discovered this magical site. Although the sound could disturb the soul, it could also temper one’s mind.

They utilized the Divine Sound Waterfall to refine themselves.

Even the previous Liu Family Patriarch, who was also Chu Qing’s grandfather, comprehended a martial arts from the Divine Sound Waterfall.
