Chapter 66.2: Secret Discussion
"What kind of danger could I possibly encounter? Don't you believe in me?"
"That time back at the Barricaded Spirit Tower was dangerous enough." Qing Ye Li then seemed to have thought of something and his eyes darkened. "That day, who brought you away from there?"
If not for the fact that someone had interfered that night, he would already have been reunited with Qing Yu, and not have to waste so many more days for nothing.
But for that person to be able to bring her away from there right under his eyes without him realizing, that person must surely be highly skilled.
But….. How had Little Yu come to know this person?
After he took the initiative to ask, Qing Yu immediately recalled about that woman who had disappeared into thin air. "Did you see a hideous looking woman that day? Did you kill her?"
"No. She detonated herself." Qing Ye Li furrowed up his brows, displeased that she was changing the topic. "You still have not answered me. Who was the person that brought you away?"
Qing Yu was feeling a little helpless. "Someone not important. Anyway, I will not have any more dealings with them anymore. Why are you insisting on knowing for?"
"Is the other party friend or foe? If it's an enemy, they will definitely become the root of much trouble in future." The man calm and measured tone, together with those dangerously narrowed eyes, seemed to tell her that if she were to say it was an enemy, he would immediately want to root out the other party completely.
"Don't overthink it too much. I saved that person once before, and it can be considered I was their saviour. So now, we're even and do not owe each other anything anymore. The other party is a person from one of Cloud Heaven's factions of power and I have no intentions of establishing any links with them. I was drawn into trouble this time because of them and that is why they sent someone to rescue me. I will keep my distance away from them from now onwards."
"You have become a lot less subdued." Qing Ye Li said, a little surprised by her words. She was arrogant and wilful in the past and would never lie low and keep a low profile like this.
Qing Yu twitched a corner of her mouth and said rather self deprecatingly. "Reborn into another life, I would naturally treasure my life more. Afterall, I do not think that I will have the fortune to be able to be reborn once more."
The atmosphere grew heavy and Qing Yu did not want to continue to harp on that topic. She then asked quizzically: "When did you come to this world? And you become the Water Edge Kingdom's Duke of Vast Sea?"
Hearing those words, Qing Ye Li's gaze turned dark as he replied in a deep voice: "The day you died, Qing Tian Lin's humiliation turned into rage when he found out and he did not even want to spare your dead body, seeking to use you as a cultivation vessel. After I got into a dispute with them, my body suddenly started to undergo a transformation, and I then….. lost my mind completely, killing everyone in the entire clan. My consciousness was blurry for a period and when I woke up, I was already in the Water Edge Kingdom. It was the Emperor of the Water Edge Kingdom who saved me while I was unconscious at sea."
Qing Tian Lin was Qing Yu's elder step brother born from a different mother.
Although they were not born from the same mother, but in the large Qing Family where there were innumerable numbers of branches, Qing Tian Lin was closest to her among all other siblings, treating her very well ever since she was very young.
Qing Yu had liked this elder brother who doted on her very much and no matter what kind of a face she put on before others, when she was before him, Qing Yu was seen to be always the most innocent and guileless little girl.
But ever since Qing Yu had been picked in the clan's selection trials among more than a hundred children to inherit the position to become the next Clan Head, Qing Tian Lin's pure and innocent love towards her had then changed.
Because the family clan's two secret treasures that had been handed down for several hundred years, the > and the > were skills that only the current sitting Clan Head was able to inherit and cultivate, and besides the Clan Head, only the Clan Head's intimate partner was able to have access to these two secret treasures.
Hence, after Qing Yu was selected, she found herself suddenly having many more suitors who were seeking to get close to her. As a girl with exceptionally outstanding looks, she already had no lack of suitors, and when the news spread, the number of people who wanted to become her future husband became as many as carp in the river, like people blindly following a trend.
