Soaring of Galaxia
Chapter 620: The Journey Home

Qin Chongyang's intention to not inform everybody was, of course, trying to protect Qin Wushuang. Regardless, Qin Wushuang was a newcomer. If his publicity had flourished, even within the united atmosphere of the Qin Clan, most likely it would evoke unnecessary internal problems.

After all, it would be a great stimulation to other core disciples if he allowed Qin Wushuang's publicity to surpass all the youngsters of the Aspiring Throne Mountain Qin Clan.

It would not have mattered if it were positive news. He was afraid of evoking different types of negative feelings that could cause an imbalance of attitude or changes in mood. Certainly it would influence the morality of everyone.

The disciples of the Qin Clan would still accept Qin Wushuang slowly beginning with his existence. Everyone would need to gradually become familiar with Qin Wushuang's exceptional abilities.

As time passes, with guidance, it would be appropriate to push Qin Wushuang into the spotlight and to entrust him with heavy responsibilities. This would be Qin Chongyang's tedious journey for the young man.

For someone as intelligent as Qin Wushuang, of course he knew this might be the plan.

Qin Yunran laughed. "Third, Wushuang is a smart person and very straightforward. You can just clearly state your your expectations. Of course, with his intelligence, he should have guessed. It's right for you to protect him. Though, you must know that if he is going to demonstrate his talents, we will not be able to stop him. Let nature take its course with these matters."

"Yes, I was thinking the same. For now, let Wushuang have a calm environment. Let's not let him receive too much attention for now. This time when Xin Wuji went to oversee the situation, I was more or less worried."

"Worried about what?" Qin Yunran asked.

"I was worried that if Xin Wuji saw Wushuang's potential and momentum, he would set him as an imaginary enemy. It would not have mattered as much if it were just another young disciple of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate. If Xin Wuji set his eyes onto Wushuang, at least in his current stage, it would definitely not be a good thing."

"Yes, your words make sense. Xin Wuji holds a sophisticated mind and does not show his emotion in his face. After seeing Wushuang's performance, it's possible that it did leave his mind wondering."

Qin Wushuang was rather calm. "Two Chiefs, for now I won't be of any threat to Xin Wuji. He should not have thought of me as some imaginary enemy."

On the other hand, Mu Rong Xu was secretly joyous. Her beloved one was mentioned on equal terms with Xin Wuji, publicly known as the number one in the young generation at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain. Even if Mu Rong Xu did not have any sense of vanity, she still felt extremely gratified. It was because she had witnessed Qin Wushuang's growth.

"Ok, let's not discuss this now. With Wushuang's speed of development, in ten or twenty years, he will hopefully catch up to Xin Wuji. Wushuang, regarding the foundation, the Heavenly Emperor Xin Clan is no better than our Qin Clan. Even though they are currently the Heavenly Emperor Clan, it's not as if our disciples are not qualified to compete with them. When looking through the historical foundation, it's difficult for the Qin and the Xin clan to see which one's better. Therefore, you should not think that Xin Wuji is distant and someone unable to climb over. You must have the courage and determination to surpass him!"

Qin Yunran was straightforward and did not have superstitious belief about the Heavenly Emperor Gate. After all, the last Heavenly Emperor Gate belonged to the Qin clan, so he spoke these words not because he was mad, but according to facts.

Although Xin Wuji had outstanding talent, it was only because he was the son to the Heavenly Emperor. The amount of fortune and luck he must have received was much richer than ordinary disciples.

Qin Chongyang accepted the statement deeply as he also encouraged him, "Wushuang, the Second Chief and I both think highly of you. If you progress at such speed, certainly you will leave behind all the youngsters of this generation in the Aspiring Throne Mountain Qin Clan. Perhaps, you are destined to lead the future of the clan. Most likely, this Xin Wuji will be your lifelong enemy. From this point, you will set Xin Wuji as your imaginary enemy and use him to weigh your goals. As Second Chief has said, surpass him, defeat him! In order for the Qin Clan to regain the position at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, we must have someone able to defeat Xin Wuji!"

Qin Wushuang felt newly inspired as he nodded. "Two chiefs, I will bear in mind your instructions. I am naturally undisciplined, for now I would not dare promise to navigate the Qin Clan. However, I will exert all my efforts over the matters of the Qin clan."

Qin Wushuang was never interested in governing the clan. Initially when the Stargaze Palace wanted to nurture him into a Palace Master, he had also refused them.

He was willing to fight for his sect and for his family, yet he was unwilling to be tied down with an abstract position. His pursuit of martial arts and life conviction would make him bound to advocate for freedom. He should be free of restraints.

Each person has their own ambitions. Qin Yunran shared the same feeling when he heard Qin Wushuang's words. In fact, Qin Yunran was also an unconstrained figure.

Although he cared a lot about matters relating to the Qin Clan, Qin Chongyang was more so in charge of the major and minor matters related to the clan.

Although Qin Yunran was the Second Chief where his position was higher than Qin Chongyang, the Third Chief, he was more like an honorary chief. He had the status and prestige, but was rarely involved with secular matters.

Qin Chongyang understood Qin Wushuang's intentions. He would not force him. As long as he was to help the Qin Clan, the methods used would not be important.

It might be a good thing to have Qin Wushuang be a promoter behind the scenes.

At the moment, he nodded. "Wushuang, it's already been a great contribution when you killed Lei Jiao and Yan Zhuiyang. You have severely foiled the arrogance of the Heavenly Punishing Villa an the Sound of Thunder Sect. Therefore, the wish you had before can surely be considered."

Naturally, Qin Chongyang meant the grand wish for having ancestor Qin Yu return to the ancestral town. Qin Wushuang said, "Third Chief, this matter need not be rushed. Since it cannot be announced, there will be more opportunities in the future. I am just planning to bring Xu'Er back to the human countries."

Qin Chongyang had already heard of this from Qin Yunran. Of course, he would not object.

"That's also good. We can talk about this matter next time regarding Qin Yu's return to the Sacrificial Valley." Qin Chongyang had solemnly instructed, "This time, it will be different when you return to the human countries. The Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect hate you to the bone. Therefore, you must be careful with every step and you must never expose your identity. If word gets out, you will be pursued and a death order will be sent from elite warriors of the Supreme Dao. Perhaps, Xin Wuji has not set you as an imaginary enemy now; however through this lesson, the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect will certainly list you as a dangerous figure. They would never want to see the prosperity of an exceptional young man from the Qin Clan!"

"Yes, Wushuang. For this trip you should keep a low-profile. Of course, we will also be watching closely. If the Supreme Dao warriors of those two houses are to leave the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, we will not sit and do nothing."

Clearly, Qin Yunran's words were to help ease Qin Wushuang's mind.

Of course, this was also the truth. Regardless if it was the Qin Clan, Heavenly Punishing Villa, or the Sound of Thunder Sect, they all cared about the whereabouts of each other's Supreme Dao warriors.

Qin Wushuang was fully aware of the power of the Supreme Dao warriors. Naturally, he would not let down his guard. A tall tree attracts the wind. Now, Qin Wushuang's reputation was prominent enough to attract the wind.

After they finished talking with Qin Yunran and Qin Chongyang, Qin Wushuang did not bid farewell to the other people. As a newcomer, apart from being familiar with Elder Guanfeng, he was close to Guanqi who had received them.

Besides them, Qin Lan was his neighbor at the Ascending Dragon Slope. He could be considered a nodding acquaintance. For the others, people of the Plain Field Qin Clan, there was no need for him to bid farewell to them.

Qin Wushuang took Mu Rong Xu, Bao Bao, and Lone to leave from the secret passageway. They stepped onto the path to return to the human countries.

Qin Wushuang gave the Heart Illusive Mask to Mu Rong Xu to wear temporarily. This way, Mu Rong Xu's temperament could change drastically.

Qin Wushuang used other masks to decorate himself.

This way, a group of them would not stand out and they would not be worried of being chased and killed by others. Compared to the road of danger they had encountered on the way here, the return trip appeared extremely smooth. Naturally, their state of mind was completely different.

The road here was full of crisis with troubles one after the other. On the way back, he had his beautiful girl next to him and they could be sweet to each other. The disparity in between them could not be measured by principles.

As they traveled at a neither slow nor fast speed, in one day they finally crossed numerous mountains and rivers, arriving at the fringe of the Orderly Mountain Prefecture. The two puppets, Black Panther and Ying Long, had displayed utter loyalty and awareness.

Qin Wushuang had not planned to use these two sets of eyes. He arranged Ying Long at the Orderly Mountain Prefecture and put Black Panther at the Judgment Mountain Prefecture. They would be his long-term spies.

After they passed the Orderly Mountain prefecture, it would be the territory of the Dispersed Praying Mountain. At the border, Qin Wushuang was still hearing people discuss how the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had invaded the human countries, how Qin Wushuang sought revenge from the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, and other matters such as destroying the mountain gate. Even now, these were hot topics as people discussed them enthusiastically.

As for the most recent matters at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, no one had spread such news at this border area. After all, such place would not hear the secrets relating to the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate.

Before the news had spread outside the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate, it would get sealed off.

Qin Wushuang had no energy to listen to this gossip. Now, he just wanted to return to the human countries as soon as possible and see the degree of obstruction to the Stargaze Palace.

At the same time, he also wanted to pay tribute to the innocent disciples. Although they were not killed by Qin Wushuang, their death was related to him.

Even though the origin of this grudge arose from the conflict between the Stargaze Palace and the Nine Palace Faction, it had served as a trigger causing Qin Wushuang and the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect to become sworn enemies. Because of these, it called for such absurd disaster.

When they passed by the Monkey King Mountain, Bao Bao and Lone would look at the mountain first. They promised to regroup at the Monkey King Mountain by the time Qin Wushuang goes back to the Xuan Yuan Mound.

Bao Bao and Lone were also cunning people. They did this because they secretly wanted to give some space to Qin Wushuang and Mu Rong Xu.

After passing by the border of the Dispersed Praying Mountain, they entered the border of the human countries. Qin Wushuang felt as if it had been a lifetime ago. The border of the Dispersed Praying Mountain was adjacent to the Nine Raven Empire.

The two of them rested for a night at the Sky Breaking City before heading to the Nine Raven Capital. Mu Rong Xu had beautiful memories of these two places.

Therefore, Mu Rong Xu had a great perception to these two places.

With their current strength, they were people that no one would threaten within the human countries. Plus with them keeping a low-profile, naturally they would not cause any troubles.

They left the Nine Raven Empire after only one days stay at the capital city of the Nine Raven Empire. They started to fly towards the Eastern Alliance. With their current foot strength, it would only take a day to travel these tens of thousands of miles.

By sunset, Qin Wushuang had arrived at the Great Luo Empire. One would be more afraid when getting close to home. Qin Wushuang could not refrain himself from feeling at a loss when thinking of the disaster that happened to the Stargaze Palace. He felt a profound weight in his heart.
