Chapter 113 Qingfeng is back
"When I have money, I will definitely give you a more beautiful sword tassel!" Qing Yi promised.
This sword tassel was from a small scorpion Qing Yi once raised. After it died, it was turned into amber, so it was indeed worthless. Moreover, for someone like Ye Qingyu who avoided scorpions, she could only wear it because it was a gift from someone she loved, and she was too embarrassed to take it off.
"This one is good, no need to change it."
"Haha, Xiaoye, don't try to comfort me. I know you don't like it. But you can't take it off right now. You have to wait until I have money. I'll find you a better one and replace it for you myself.
"When you have money, then how long do you have to wait?" Ye Qingyu chuckled. "You know I don't like it, but you don't allow me to take it off. Isn't that a bit overbearing?"
"I don't know. I don't know when my master will die again." Qing Yi pretended to scratch his head to show his distress.
"Qing Yi, is there such an unfilial disciple as you? If you are short of money, you can just withdraw it from the palace. Why do you always covet your master's treasures?"
"How can that be? Your father is so petty. If he knew I took money from your Northwest Palace, he would be even more disgusted with me! Not only did he kidnap his precious son, but he also blatantly spent his family's money."
"Haha, you think so much! Then why don't you spend mine? I am the prince of the Northwest after all. I work for the emperor and I also have a salary. It's more than enough to support you." Ye Qingyu looked at Qing Yi, who was suddenly very strong, with amusement.
"Well, that's true. What's yours is mine. We are one. I can spend your money to buy wine, but how can I spend your money to buy you a gift? Don't worry, you can wear this sword tassel first. Sooner or later, I will give you one you like." Qing Yi promised solemnly.
"Really, there's no need. From now on, you are not allowed to talk about the Demon Lord and my father's faults behind their backs. I've worn this sword tassel for a long time and I'm used to it. I think it's pretty good." Ye Qingyu didn't want Qing Yi to go to the trouble of giving him a gift.
"Xiao Ye, it's okay. My master isn't afraid of what others say about him. He's already broken through to the highest level of the Hundred Demons Divine Art. I reckon he'll have no problem living for a few hundred years." Qing Yi exclaimed. Master is truly amazing! He felt his master had reached the eighth level of his own Hundred Demons Divine Art, so how did Master break through to the tenth level?
"You have also practiced the Hundred Demons Magic, so can you live for hundreds of years?" Ye Qingyu asked curiously.
"Well, it's hard to say. It depends on how far you can go in the future. If you can break through the tenth level, maybe it will be possible." Qing Yi explained, and then said: "But I don't want to become an old demon like him. What's the point? Unless you can also practice magic and accompany me to live that long, otherwise forget it!"
"It's always good to live longer, Qingyi. Not only do you have the Hundred Demons Magical Skill in your body, but you also have the Martial Saint's Taixuan Tiandun. These are extremely rare. You must practice well, and you will definitely be able to break through the tenth level." Ye Qingyu advised.
"Xiao Ye, I will definitely practice martial arts diligently, but not to live for hundreds of years, but to have enough strength to guard you and protect you for the rest of your life."
"Oh, I am so lucky to meet such a good hero like Qing Yi." Ye Qingyu said this for the first time with an exclamation and a hint of sarcasm.
"Hehe..." Qing Yi smiled and accepted this love completely.
Three days later, all the poison in Ye Qingyu's body was cleared out. He and Qingyi bid farewell to Emperor Chu, left the palace and returned to the prince's mansion.
The palace had regained its former bustle with the return of its master. Everyone knew how much the Northwest Prince valued Young Master Qing Yi, so they treated Qing Yi with even greater respect, treating him like another master of the palace.
Ye Qingyu and Qingyi either wandered around the capital, visiting unique places and enjoying local delicacies, or practiced martial arts in the palace, exchanging blows. They were enjoying themselves immensely. They were just waiting for Qingfeng to return so they could quickly put an end to this matter.
Half a month passed in a flash, and the breeze finally came back, bringing good news and bad news.
The good news is that all the jade artifacts that had been stolen from the palace have been recovered, and the owner of the jade shop has also been arrested. The bad news is that the entire Xihua Prefecture was wiped out, and no one was left alive. The head of Zhao Xing, the prefect of Xihua Prefecture and the father of Concubine Mei and Zhao Quan, has disappeared.
Ye Qingyu and Qingyi were stunned after hearing Qingfeng's story. Qingfeng had gone to Xihua Prefecture secretly, so it was impossible for him to leak the information. Otherwise, how could he have easily captured the jade shop owner? However, Zhao Xing was the father-in-law of the emperor, holding high status and position. The affair between Zhao Quan and Concubine Mei had not been made public.
"How strange! After all, Zhao Xing was Concubine Mei's father and the father-in-law of the Emperor of Chu. How could his entire family be wiped out like this?" Qing Yi sighed.
Ye Qingyu pondered for a long time and had some guesses in his mind, but he was not in a position to say these words to Qingyi.
"Qingfeng, come with me to the palace to meet the emperor later." Ye Qingyu said. No matter what happened, there must be a result in the end.
"Ah, Xiaoye, aren't you taking me with you?" Qing Yi asked hurriedly after hearing that.
"Qingyi, you should rest in the palace. I will be back soon and will not stay in the palace." Ye Qingyu said as he stood up.
"No, I have to go with you. I'm worried." Qing Yi also stood up quickly with a firm tone.
"Hmm? What are you worried about?" Ye Qingyu turned around and looked at Qing Yi. He knew in his heart that he was worried about him, but the palace had many rules and he didn't want Qing Yi to be restricted.
"Have you forgotten? By the way, Qingfeng, you don't know yet, right? Your master almost lost his life. It was just this close, and you would never see him again." Qingyi complained to Qingfeng while bluffing.
"What?" Qingfeng heard this and suddenly looked at Qingyi, trying to figure out whether what he said was true or false.
"Really? If you don't believe me, just ask him directly. I'm not exaggerating at all! The poisonous nail was less than half an inch away from his heart. If I hadn't cut my wrist and fed him my blood, he would have really died!" During this period of time, Ye Qingyu tried to comfort Qingyi in various ways in order to compensate for the psychological trauma caused by the injury. Qingyi felt very safe these days.
"Master?" Qingfeng looked at his master in shock and asked.
"Hey, Qingfeng, don't listen to him. Get ready and go meet the emperor later." Ye Qingyu shook his head helplessly and ignored the two people behind him.
Qingyi vividly described to Qingfeng how his master was injured, and Qingfeng felt a wave of fear after hearing it.
