Soaring of Galaxia

Outside the Hundred Leaf Qin Castle, Qin Bolong, Patriarch of the clan came to welcome Qin Wushuang himself with the six major Elders. He had afforded Qin Wushuang the highest treatment.

A few others that had come to welcome him were of course, Qin Guan and his little sister who had received help from Qin Wushuang on the way here.

“Boss!” Bao Bao scrambled over with relief. He winked at Lone and appeared extremely excited.

“Young Master Qin is brave and chivalrous, I, Qin Bolong, represent the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan in thanking you!” Qin Bolong cupped his hands forward to hold Qin Wushuang’s shoulder. On his face, there lay endless happiness.

“Boss, this is the Patriarch of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan.” Bao Bao immediately introduced.

“Patriarch, we are of the same family, please don’t speak such courteous words.” Qin Wushuang said with a smile, “There is the so-called saying of how you cannot write the word of Qin twice with one stroke. The Qin of the Tian Xuan Land came from the same source, we are connected by the branches and our fate is shared by flesh and blood. What I did is simply my duty. Forgive me for not being able to make more of a contribution with my lowly strength.”

“Young Master Qin is a young and accomplished person, without you aiding us at the battle of the Duck Beak Mountain, how could we have achieved such perfect result? Please hurry and come inside!”

The younger generation of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan did not have many people as accomplished and as young as Qin Wushuang. There was no one especially as brave and smart as Qin Wushuang. Thus, Qin Bolong’s appreciation of him was much greater.

After heading inside the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan castle, Qin Wushuang had finally understood the reason how the Qin Clan was able to rub the nose of the wolf and tiger-like forces of the Commander Chen into the dirt.

The internal defense of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan was indeed extraordinary!

“Young Master Qin, I heard from Tie Hong that your ancestor had once been an exceptional disciple of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. I’m curious where did your branch establish their home?”

To the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan, Qin Wushuang’s identity had remained a secret. Although Bao Bao had come here, naturally he would not expose Qin Wushuang’s identity without his consent.

Since Qin Wushuang had arrived at the headquarters of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan and recognized them, he would not hide his identity. Besides the Qin Guan siblings who held a lower position, they were surrounded by core higher-ups. Thus, he would not worry about his identity getting leaked.

“I will not hide from you Patriarch, the three of us had come from the human countries. These two are my companions. Although they are from the Beast Clan, they are my brothers.”

“Human countries?” Qin Bolong and Qin Zhonglong looked at each other. They exchanged glances with the six Elders and each of them looked at each other in dismay.

Clearly, Qin Wushuang’s answer had left them shocked. They had once estimated Qin Wushuang’s background and often they had considered that he was from those exceptional Qin branches of the Xuan Yuan Mound. Even if they had considered the other infamous Qin branches, they had never thought about the human countries.

Even if their heads were broken, they would have never thought to look in that direction!

Qin Wushuang did not find their reactions strange. In fact, for any person that lived at the Xuan Yuan Mound, he believed that they would have a similar reaction if they heard that they had come from the human countries.

Even a powerful senior like Yun Xuechen was somewhat surprised when he heard that he had come from the human countries.

Qin Bolong was, no wonder, the Patriarch of a clan. After feeling dumbstruck after a while, he immediately regained his sense and said with a smile: “Young Master Qin’s answer was beyond all of our expectations.”

“Human countries have always been something of little interest and dispensable in the eyes of the people in the Forbidden Spiritual Zones. This is the reality.” Qin Wushuang did not care.

“So you are from the human countries, no wonder you had appeared from that direction. That place is close to the human countries.” At this time, Qin Guan interrupted.

“Qin Guan, I didn’t know who you were when I first met you. Thus, forgive me for not telling you my true identity.”

Qin Guan said with a smile: “Savior, it’s reasonable for you guys to hide your identity when you are from the human countries. This is the basic rule in this society. How could I blame you before I even had the chance to thank you?”

“I didn’t ask for you full name, Young Master Qin?” Behind the Patriarch, Qin Zhonglong asked with a smile.

“My full name is Qin Wushuang.”

“Qin Wushuang?” Qin Zhonglong frowned slightly when he heard this name, “This name sounds extremely familiar. I must have heard about it somewhere.”

“Second Junior Brother, you heard about it?” Qin Bolong did not try to cover up his faults. In the Hundred Leaf state, he had always worked for the fate of the clan and never bothered with the news from the human countries.

After all, in the eyes of all martial artists, human countries were most likely something of little interest. It was an insignificant matter in the eyes of the people in the Xuan Yuan Mound.

Since it was something insignificant, of course they would not waste their time to care about it. Thus, despite being famous in the human countries, across the vast Forbidden Spiritual Zones that extended for millions of miles, Qin Wushuang’s fame was equivalent to nothing.

After a moment of silence, Qin Zhonglong mumbled to himself: “Qin Wushuang, human countries…”

Suddenly, Qin Zhonglong slapped his thigh: “Yes, yes, I remember now.”

All eyes had become fixed on Qin Zhonglong. He said: “I remember. A while ago when I was out, I had heard about a mission randomly when I was investigating the missions distributed by the Freelance Martial Artist Union from those powerhouses in the Heavenly Emperor Mountain. This mission was related to the words Qin Wushuang. And that figure also came from the human countries. Young Master Qin, is there a young and accomplished man with the same name as you in the human countries?”

Before Qin Wushuang had answered, Bao Bao laughed: “In the human countries, the only young person with the surname Qin with such a great reputation is my boss. Others would not dare to use the name Qin Wushuang!”

Qin Zhonglong gave a long sigh: “Young Master Qin, have you ever offended someone?”

Qin Wushuang laughed coolly: “I have been through many life and death situations in the human countries. I went through countless major and minor battles. I did indeed make a lot of enemies with those who had invaded my clan and my sect.”

Qin Zhonglong shook his head: “With your power, I am sure almost no one is your match in the human countries. Besides, no matter how powerful the enemies was in the human countries, they would never distribute the mission to the Freelance Martial Artist Union in the Xuan Yuan Mound.”

“Regarding the Xuan Yuan Mound, there is one enemy.” Qin Wushuang narrowed his eyes, “That is the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect!”

“Heavenly Luo Daoist sect?” When Qin Bolong heard this name, he could not help but draw a breath of cold air. For people living at the Xuan Yuan Mound, of course they had heard the name of Heavenly Luo Daoist sect.

“Heavenly Luo Daoist sect…” Qin Zhonglong also spoke with a grave tone as he was restraining his fear of this name. However, Qin Wushuang had revealed a relaxed smile: “Please don’t worry about me. We’ve already settled the grudge between the sect and myself. Now, even if the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect desires to seek vengeance, I would be the only one to bear it. It’s the sole reason for hiding my name from the eyes of the Havenly Luo Daoist sect during my trip. I didn’t expect that indeed, that sect did not give up.”

Qin Bolong asked Qin Zhonglong with a serious tone: “Second Brother, exactly what kind of mission is it that you have heard?”

“It’s a bounty to assassinate a young man named Qin Wushuang. It especially emphasised that this young man had come from the human countries, followed by two spiritual beasts and wield incredible combat power. The reward is not low either as they are offering fifty thousand gold crystal stones!”

“Fifty thousand gold crystal stones?” Lone cried out, “The three of us are only worth so little? Who the heck distributed this mission, aren’t’ they looking down on us?”

Qin Wushuang also waved his hand: “Patriarch, and Elders, let’s not linger on the matter between me and the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect. I would be extremely grateful if you could keep my identity a secret. I am sure the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect cannot do anything if they cannot find me despite trying to chase after me.”

“Boss, if they cannot find you, wouldn’t they harass the Stargaze Palace or go to your Eastwood Qin?” Bao Bao was worried.

“I also made some preparations. Don’t worry. The supporter of that Luo Tianci was only an Elder that did not hold a core position at the Heavenly Luo sect. He is not the most powerful person. And I also made some arrangements before my departure.”

“That would be for the best.”

Suddenly, Qin Bolong said: “There is no need to worry too much about them harassing the ones in human countries. According to the pact made ten thousand years ago by many Forbidden Spiritual Zones, the powerhouses in the Zones are forbidden to get involved in the conflicts in the human countries. They cannot deal with the powerhouses in the human countries without cause. It is all to prevent a new cycle of conflicts between each Forbidden Spiritual Zones!”

Qin Wushuang had once heard similar words. Instantly, he said seriously: “Patriarch, my personal matter stops here. At the moment, we need to discuss how to defeat those enemies that glare at us like a tiger watching its preys! Although that Commander Chen claimed to have gone to seek backup, I estimate that he did not go. However, the matter regarding asking for help is real. I did not see that Chen Tong today. I am afraid that he went to carry out the task in Commander Chen Sen’s stead! The backup sought by Commander Chen would not be ordinary. Thus, before the arrival of their help, we need to inflict serious damage to the enemies. Or else, when their backup regroups with the main force, it would definitely become a grave blow to the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan!”

“That’s right, we must make the move between these next five to seven days. When the backup arrives, the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan would be in a much more disadvantaged position.” Lone also shared the same viewpoint.

Qin Bolong had assume the responsibility of a Patriarch as he said in a low voice: “With the information brought by Young Master Qin and with that Commander Chen still here, then they would not get any benefits if we unleash all our forces.”

“In this current battle, the power struggle regarding the numbers is almost balanced. Now, we are competing with our strategies! That Commander Chen had let out fake information deliberately and set up the traps for the Hundred Leaf Qin clan to fall into! To break it, we must follow this tactic and make a counter scheme.”

“How to should we turn their scheme against them? Young Master Qin, do you have any suggestions?”

After a moment of thinking, Qin Wushuang nodded and said: “Since Commander Chen created the fake scene of him being absent, then we must follow this fake situation and use it! We will feign action in one place and make the real move in another!”
