Daoist Master of Qing Xuan

Chapter 690: Wind and Thunder

When Song Qingyi was in the Youshen Kingdom, he promised Shen Lian to protect Shen Lian's female apprentice Si Jing secretly. Initially, Fang Yanying was here but Shen Lian had some matter to attend to. Therefore, Fang Yanying returned to the Zhou Kingdom.

Si Jing was aware of Song Qingyi. When she knew that he was an old friend of Shen Lian, she was very respectful towards him. She often asked Song Qingyi about Shen Lian's past.

When Song Qingyi talked about Shen Lian to Si Jing, he discovered that Si Jing treated Shen Lian differently, like Qixiu. However, Qixiu was long gone and she never managed to see Shen Lian again.

Song Qingyi was not aware whether Qixiu was alive or dead. He felt that Qixiu must have lived with regret. She did not express her feelings courageously. This had nothing to do with her cultivation but it was her own choice. Words that were chosen to speak out depend on a person's temperament.

Therefore, Si Jing being in the same shoes as Qixiu earned Song Qingyi's pity.

Si Jing also noticed the change in Song Qingyi's attitude so she rarely met him again. Perhaps it was due to Song Qingyi had finished talking about Shen Lian so Si Jing had nothing else to communicate with him.

Song Qingyi lived for a long time and so he knew this might be a misunderstanding. He only pitied Si Jing and had no other thoughts.

A month ago, there was an indescribable Qi in the Youshen Kingdom. In the beginning, Song Qingyi thought it was the result of Si Jing's practice but later he found out that there was a new group of people in the Royal Palace in the Youshen Kingdom, replacing the palace's original guards. These people were similar to Si Jing's Qi. Hence, they were known as the people of Si Jing. They were the Youhu's from Lei family, aristocrat blood from the Xia Kingdom.

Song Qingyi secretly looked at Si Jing. Since she seemed to have no issue, he did not create a fuss.

However, it seemed abnormal this day. There were warm heating in the Royal Palace, so the flowers bloomed while the green grass and old trees were sprouting.

The warm heat was pure Yang Qi but it was rather blazing. Soon, the spring in the Royal Palace turned into a hot summer.

Song Qingyi felt that something was wrong so he went in all the way inside the palace to meet Si Jing.

Song Qingyi wondered that it was his illusion that Si Jing was more beautiful than before. Nonetheless, he did not have any second thoughts so he also did not avoid her grandeur.

Si Jing queried, "What is the matter senior Qingyi?"

Song Qingyi replied, "The weather in the Royal Palace was very strange. I was afraid that you were in trouble so I came to figure things out."

"Senior Qingyi can see that I am fine now. So, don't worry," Si Jing's clear eyes looked at Song Qingyi. As he was looking into her eyes, he seemed to see a flash of lightning.

He responded, "Your Lightning Technique seemed to be stronger."

Si Jing doubted so.

Song Qingyi looked into her eyes again. The lightning was gone but the eyes were glittering. This was uncommon. He reaffirmed, "Yes."

Si Jing ordered, "Senior Qingyi had a sharp eye. I made some improvements but I am tired now. Please return."

Song Qingyi screened through Si Jing and uttered, "I shall make my move now. Take care."

He turned and walked towards the entrance. Suddenly, Si Jing motioned a formula and a lightning appeared to burst out in front of her. It immediately gushed towards Song Qingyi.

Halfway, the lightning hit into a void. Then, a person with Wind Lightning Wings appeared. It was obvious Si Jing was not attacking Song Qingyi. If she did not make that move, the person would strike Song Qingyi.

This time, it appeared a chain that was woven by the lightning on Si Jing's throne. It tied her up completely and her face became pale due to the pain.

Song Qingyi turned and echoed, "Who are you?"

The weird man spread his Wind Lightning Wings. Immediately, the sound of thunder and wind echoed across the hall. He looked at Song Qingyi coldly but he did not reply.

Si Jing, in the chain of lightning, said word by word, "He is Thor, my ancestor."

Song Qingyi sighed and said, "Why did you stop Thor? Now, seeing you suffering, I felt sorry for my brother, Shen Lian."

Si Jing whispered, "You are Shen Lian's friend. I could not let them hurt you."

Song Qingyi smiled and stated, "Shen Lian asked me here to protect you, not for you to protect me."

He had a pen in his hand. The pointed end of the pen was crystal clear, like a diamond. It was filled with the Qi of humanity and civilization and it seemed that it was able to write the Spring and Autumn and set the laws.

When Thor saw the pen, he could not help but to be affected.

His knowledgeable experience told him that this pen came from an unusual source and he could sense danger.

Then his sense of danger turned into fear because a lotus lantern floated above the hall. The lamplight could bring heat but he felt cold from head to toe.

The surging hot Qi appeared and wrapped Thor. Then, the smoke rose slowly and Thor vanished completely.

Song Qingyi was slightly surprised. He thought that there would be a tough fight but the opponent left due to fear.

The smoke and dust were swept away by a Qing Guang. Then, a man holding a lotus lamp walked towards Si Jing.

He put the lotus lantern under the chains of the lightning. Under the lamplight, the chains melted and Si Jing was no longer tied.

She hugged the man and cried for a moment.

Shen Lian patted her shoulder and coaxed, "Don't cry. You might be teased."

Si Jing became shy. After some time, she looked at Shen Lian. She had not seen him for a long time and so she could not bear to move her eyes away.

Song Qingyi laughed, "You came right in time."

Shen Lian thanked him, "Thanks for your effort, Song Qingyi."

Song Qingyi replied, "I did not help much and let the monarch suffered."

Si Jing defended, "Senior Qingyi, it was actually not painful. Thor would not harm me too."

Shen Lian responded, "Tell me. What's the matter?"

"Thor was the ancestor of Youhu and also a loyal subject of Si Wenming, the Founder Xia Kingdom. Together with Lei family, he found me and wanted me to be the new king of Xia Kingdom but I did not agree," Si Jing explained.

Shen Lian continued, "There were no disadvantages of becoming the new king of Xia Kingdom. You did not have to worry about me."

Si Jing said, "You know that I do not like these responsibilities. If possible, I hope that I can hide in an unnamed mountain and practice cultivation."

Shen Lian pointed out, "Silly child, there is no pure land in this world. You said that the Thor was a loyal subject of Si Wenming, perhaps it was only in the past. Now, his identity is not so simple."

Puzzled, Si Jing asked, "What do you mean?"

Shen Lian picked up the chain that was not melted from the floor and blew it. The debris scattered like the sand wind. What remained was a little unique Qi of Dao. It reminded people of the start of everything and the source of all origins.
