Soaring of Galaxia
Chapter 597: Love at First Sigh

After the battle was scheduled, Qin Wushuang became much calmer. For many years, he had been on the path of martial arts, so he was accustomed to such predicaments.

What would it matter, fighting one against four? Qin Wushuang has always remained fearless. Intuitively, he knew that the other party had schemed this so-called marriage proposal to target him.

It made sense that the name, Qin Wushuang, would be enough to put the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect on guard.

However, Qin Wushuang was oddly undisturbed. Up to this point, he already understood his situation and the mission he was to carry.

The snow covering the back mountain was already a few metres deep, yet when Qin Wushuang and Mu Rong Xu walked on the snow ground, it was as if they were floating on top of it as light as the feather. They did not leave behind a single footprint.

At this point, their feelings for one another had brought them completely together as one. No disappointments or trials could separate them. Now, because of the battle ahead Mu Rong Xu was least worried about their togetherness, but of Qin Wushuang's safety.

"Brother Qin, the Black Water is located under the deep valley of the rear mountain. As far as the eye can see, it is a giant lake like the ocean. The disciples of the Floating Snow House all call it the Black Dead Sea. Usually, disciples of the Floating Snow House also want to explore the Black Water, yet no one has had the courage to penetrate deeply. The younger generation has been limited to explore as far as six hundred metres from the sect. Regarding that Phantom Dragon bloodline, no one knows where it is located. According to a speculation by the successive generations of the Floating Snow House, the active zone of the Immemorial Phantom Dragon in the past was at least 1500 metres beneath!"

"1500 metres?" Qin Wushuang was also slightly surprised.

Mu Rong Xu nodded. "Brother Qin, I truly hope you do not go in. Brother Qin, I would only need your word, even if I am to accompany you to leave the Floating Snow House and to never return, I will not regret. This is not your fault, it has been forced on you by them!"

Qin Wushuang looked at Mu Rong Xu's sincere eyes for she was truly a girl good at understanding others. Qin Wushuang was not an idiot. He knew that no ordinary girl would have been able to speak such courageous words and to do all those things in the past for him.

It would require one to possess boundless courage and determination.

Mu Rong Xu also looked at Qin Wushuang seriously, for she awaited his decision.

Qin Wushuang revealed a confident smile and looked at the faraway distance leisurely. "Xu'Er, in the past I once said that you have done so much for me, suffering through all of those bitter arguments and grievances. Now, it's time for me to do something for you. You say, how could I have the heart to let you betray your sect and shoulder an infamy for all eternity? I can take you away, but I could never allow for you to be criticized and your honor put to shame. I keep my word that I will take you from the Floating Snow House the proper way, without anyone left to stand in our way!"

Mu Rong Xu had heard Qin Wushuang say these words more than once. Yet each time, she was mesmerized when she heard him saying it. She was incredibly proud that she was right. This man deserved to trust for her life. He does not harbor any selfishness and gives thought for her in all respects. He would not let her shoulder any grievances.

"Brother Qin, you know that I am willing to leave with you and am not afraid of shouldering a tarnished name. I only know that in my heart, no other man could possibly equal you. Brother Qin, do you know when I first realized my feelings for you?"

"Was it at Shao Bailong's inn, when you and I met through music?" When Qin Wushuang recalled this happy moment, he felt incomparable sweetness.

The only regret was at that time, Qin Wushuang had worried about his teacher's safety and had been continuously depressed. After his encounter with Mu Rong Xu, he had not established a very deep friendship. On the other hand, when Mu Rong Xu offered her assistance and helped at the Stargaze Palace to chase away Luo Yun, it had deepened Qin Wushuang's impression of Mu Rong Xu.

Revealing a light smile, Mu Rong Xu's stunning features allowed Qin Wushuang to feel tender affection as he looked at her.

"Brother Qin, the first time I admired you from my heart, I am afraid you didn't even know I existed. Before you entered Shao Bailong's inn, do you remember how a person was thrown out by a bar on the opposed side of the street and you saved him?"

"You are talking about Xiao Guan?" Qin Wushuang had an unusually profound impression of the situation. Initially, Xiao Guan was bullied by a subordinate of an aristocrat at the capital city of the Nine Raven Empire. Qin Wushuang offered his hand and saved Xiao Guan. They had formed a profound master and servant relationship. Now, Xiao Guan's progress at the human countries was also incredibly heartening.

"Yes, that's the young man. Brother Qin, initially when you had offered your assistance to uphold justice, I just happened to see it from upstairs. It was at that time I felt you were somewhat different than ordinary martial artists." Mu Rong Xu was recalling the situation with sweetness. "I had travelled for a long time in the human countries and was used to seeing fierce rivalry and schemed internal strife. Seeing someone as brave and chivalrous as big brother Qin was a breath of fresh air . I could feel that you were somewhat different than ordinary young men."

Qin Wushuang laughed. "Xu'Er, I believe that in this world, I am definitely not the only one who would intervene if they saw an unjust act. For that matter, anyone possessing some degree of righteousness and who has the power to intervene, should. If I lacked the needed strength to help, I would most likely look the other way."

Mu Rong Xu laughed. "Brother Qin, perhaps there are some people like that. Yet, I just happened to meet you. Before this, I also heard many places throughout the human countries commenting on Qin Wushuang, talking about the big scene you had created in the Eastern Three Countries and how you had sprung up so abruptly. However, at that time, I truly was unaware that you were that man. I only learned about it later on."

Qin Wushuang said, "Xu'Er, maybe that trip to the Nine Raven Empire was fate trying to bring us together."

"That may be!" Mu Rong Xu gave a light sigh, "Brother Qin, when you had left the Nine Raven Empire, each day after I would think of you, two stranger coming together by chance. I wanted to know you, the reason behind your gloominess and I why you intended to enter the Dispersed Praying Mountain…"

"Brother Qin, would you say I am somewhat foolish?" Mu Rong Xu said with a light smile as her eyes were brimming with happiness.

"Xu'Er, this is our predestined fate, how could it be foolish?"

"Yes, I think so too. Or else, why had I seen so many acclaimed young talents at the Xuan Yuan Mound, but never felt any of them to be truly great? In the human countries, our random encounter had evoked so much curiosity in you. If someone were to reject it as fate, I would never believe them."

Qin Wushuang laughed. "Unfortunately, I was too dumb to even realize what was in front of me."

"No, it's not you being dumb. I admired you even more after I learned that you were exploring the Dispersed Praying Mountain to seek medicine for your teacher, despite the risk of people chasing to kill you. Therefore, when that little girl Little Bamboo heard I was going to the human countries, she thought I was mad. Brother Qin, what do you say, did I make the right choice? If I had not gone to the human countries, how could I have heard all those people praising you? If I had not gone to the human countries, how could I have known that you were such an unusual man that valued passion and righteousness?"

"Xu'Er, today, you have praised me enough."

Mu Rong Xu shook her head sincerely. "Brother Qin, I am not praising you, I am speaking these words from the bottom of my heart. Brother Qin, when I left the Stargaze Palace, my heart kept telling me to not leave. However, I had to leave because of my pride as a girl."

Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh, "Xu'Er, when you helped me solve the crisis of the Stargaze Palace, you had no idea how much I was grateful to you. Later when I arrived at the Xuan Yuan Mound, as I learned your exact situation, the more I respected you."

Mu Rong Xu revealed a sweet smile. "Brother Qin, at that time I also worried of Luo Ting working to your disadvantage. Therefore, during the trip to the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, I had travelled at a rushing speed as I felt very anxious. I didn't even hear the news of you killing Luo Ting. I had only learned of that after I had filed the lawsuit. At that time, I was truly delighted."

"Xu'Er, those nightmares are all in the past," Qin Wushuang said with comforted.

"Brother Qin, I am telling you all of this because I want you to know that I understand your feelings for me. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether you go to the Black Water or not. We don't need this test between us. I am really worried about your safety."

"Xu'Er, I am tough. Many times, my enemies have thought I was surely dead. Yet in the end, I always came back to disappoint."

"However, Brother Qin, this time it's clear that those four warriors have joined hands and that this must be a plot deliberately for you. Lei Jiao and Yan Zhuiyang are all at the peak of the Profound Void Martial Stage. This time when they are going down to the Black Water, their sect will surely equip them with divine weapons. I am worried they will play dirty tricks on you underneath the Black Water. Certainly they are not fond of acquiring the Phantom Dragon bloodline, dealing with you must be their true intention!"

Being exceptionally intelligent, of course these little matters would not stay hidden from her in darkness.

Qin Wushuang said with a smile, "Xu'Er, how could their little tricks get concealed from me? Divine weapons? That should not matter at all. For the things they need to have given to them from the sect, I already have. Besides, it's possible that they may not possess the trump cards I already have. Xu'Er, perhaps what I have now is not enough to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. Yet, in one day, I will let everyone of the Xuan Yuan Mound know that they dare not become enemies with the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan!"

"Brother Qin, you…" Upon hearing the words from Qin Wushuang, naturally Mu Rong Xu was somewhat astonished.

However, Qin Wushuang revealed an expression filled with incomparable self-confidence. "Xu'Er, do you remember those eight spiritual beasts that had escorted you back? The strongest of them is at the Perfect Void Martial Stage. If I needed to, I can summon two spiritual beasts of the Profound Mysterious Stage. In the case of emergency, I can aggravate and summon spiritual beasts of the Common Mysterious stage. Therefore, unless they are Supreme Dao warriors, or else, not to mention four, I would be unstoppable even if there are ten of them! In terms of a battle of wits and power, the game I played with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect was much more exciting than this one."

Mu Rong Xu was completely dazzled by this revelation. "Brother Qin, now I am really curious how many miracles can emerge from you."

A young man who has become prosperous from the human countries with divine weapons, the ability to summon powerful spiritual beasts, and who possesses unmeasurable wisdom. Such a person was definitely foreign to the martial arts world. He would be the nightmare of all enemies!

"Xu'Er, I will tell you all about it in the future. When we are together, we will certainly witness many more miracles. Please believe in me."

"I believe in you!"

Mu Rong Xu never doubted Qin Wushuang of having such potential. There have been numerous experiences sufficient enough to prove it. All the miracles happening to Qin Wushuang had almost became a phenomenon.
