“Remember, when you become stronger in the future, bring Qingqing’s corpse back. She’s afraid of the dark. She can’t stay there,” The patriarch reminded Li Qingshan.
Li Qingshan looked at the patriarch with a solemn expression and said, “I will.”
Even without the patriarch’s reminder, Li Qingshan would definitely bring Qingqing’s body back.
The girl who had stolen his first kiss had such a tragic past. She was killed by her uncle and her corpse was sent over for people to study carefully. It was simply truly heart-wrenching.
“I believe you. If this Big Clock follows you, it will be able to display its brilliance. I’m already old and don’t have much time left. I’m in a deep sleep and won’t be of much use anymore,” The patriarch said.
“Grandfather, is Mahakala completely dead?” Li Qingshan asked curiously. From the conversation between Mahakala and the patriarch, it was obvious that Mahakala hadn’t died.
The patriarch fell silent and said, “Mahakala isn’t dead, but this time, I have cut off his past, present, and future. He is heavily injured. It will take a long time for him to recover completely. The next time he appears, it will be up to you.”
Li Qingshan’s expression brightened and said, “I’ll kill him the next time he shows up!”
“I trust you.” The patriarch looked at Li Qingshan with a gentle gaze for the last time. The last wisp of his spirit dissipated in the sky.
It completely disappeared.
Li Qingshan felt a sense of loss as he stored the Big Clock in his core.
The Big Clock was very obedient. It entered Li Qingshan’s core and stood tall alongside the Tree of Enlightenment and the giant sword.
“Both grandfather and granddaughter have given me Great Path Weapons. This favor is too great,” Li Qingshan sighed.
The giant sword was given to him by Qingqing, and the Big Clock was given to him by her grandfather.
“I must bring Qingqing’s body back.” Li Qingshan took a deep breath and thought firmly in his heart.
“Li Qingshan, work hard on your cultivation. Reaching Emperor Realm is what you should do now,” The giant sword said sadly.
“I will!” Li Qingshan nodded. Then, he looked at Hua Xiangrong.
Hua Xiangrong had long wanted to escape.
She had the azure bead that allowed her to travel through space. This made her escape attempts in the past effortless.
But this time, her methods were useless.
“Don’t waste your energy. The Big Clock has sealed this area. You can’t escape.” Li Qingshan looked at Hua Xiangrong’s actions and guessed that she wanted to escape as he said softly.
Hua Xiangrong squeezed out a smile and said fawningly, “Hello, big brother. I’m just a small Inherited Immortal. I don’t have any skills or treasures. I’m just an ordinary woman. Please let me go.”
Li Qingshan shook his head and said, “You’re not just an ordinary woman.”
Hua Xiangrong hugged her chest and looked at Li Qingshan warily. “You wouldn’t…”
Li Qingshan shook his head and said, “Don’t worry. I’m not interested in you. I’m here to find you. Or rather, I’m here to save you.”
“Save me?” Hua Xiangrong looked at Li Qingshan suspiciously. “We’re not related at all. This is the first time we’ve met, and you’ve come specifically to save me. And you’re saying that you’re not interested in me?”
“Why would you specifically come to save a girl you’re not interested in? Or enter such a terrifying place like the Abyss Forbidden Land?” Hua Xiangrong didn’t believe Li Qingshan’s words.
Li Qingshan was speechless.
“I came to save you because of your sister. If it weren’t for your sister, I wouldn’t have come at all.” Li Qingshan took a deep breath and said. Hua Xiangrong suddenly became excited, “Do you know where my sister is?” Li Qingshan frowned. “You don’t know where your sister is?”
“Tell me first, what is your relationship with my sister?” After Hua Xiangrong calmed down, she questioned Li Qingshan.
“If everything goes smoothly, you should call me brother-in-law,” Li Qingshan said calmly.
“You’re so powerful, so handsome, and so young. How could you fall for that old woman, my sister?” Hua Xiangrong looked at Li Qingshan suspiciously.
“If your sister hears what you said, she will definitely beat you up,” Li Qingshan said helplessly.
“Don’t distract me. What’s my sister’s name?” Hua Xiangrong asked seriously.
“Hua Yun!” Li Qingshan said.
Hua Xiangrong’s expression relaxed a little. She continued to ask, “How did you and my sister meet? How far has your relationship progressed? Who are you? Tell me everything. Don’t hide anything.”
Li Qingshan frowned. He couldn’t be bothered to answer these questions. He looked at Hua Xiangrong and transmitted his voice into her ear, “Your sister told me that there is a lotus flower on your left butt.”
“Pervert.” Hua Xiangrong immediately cursed. She covered her left butt with her hand and looked at Li Qingshan in disbelief.
“My sister told you?” Hua Xiangrong asked.
“Yes, your sister said that there was a rose on her right butt.” Li Qingshan nodded and continued to transmit his voice.
He promised Hua Yun that he wouldn’t let a fourth person know about this.
Although the giant sword was a Great Path Weapon, it could be considered as a unique life form. Li Qingshan chose to transmit his vice into her ears, so only he and Hua Xiangrong knew.
“Are you really my brother-in-law?” Hua Xiangrong relaxed a bit and looked at Li Qingshan in disbelief. She didn’t expect her sister to be so good at finding men. She actually found a young Immortal King.
“If I find your sister, I’ll be your brother-in-law. If I can’t find your sister, I won’t be your brother-in-law for the time being.” Li Qingshan shook his head.
“Don’t you know where my sister is?” Hua Xiangrong asked.
“I thought you knew,” Li Qingshan said.
Hua Xiangrong looked at Li Qingshan. Li Qingshan looked at Hua Xiangrong.
Their eyes met.
They looked at each other in silence..
