Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone
Chapter 604 - 556: Two Betrothal Gifts
Chapter 604: Chapter 556: Two Betrothal Gifts
Bai Yaosha lay sideways on the bed, looking at the window lattice beside her, but her heart couldn’t calm down. She could clearly feel the presence coming from not far behind her.
She kept telling herself in her heart, Qin Yu is her sister’s Dao Companion!
Now, it’s just because they’re in the clan grounds, avoiding flaws being discovered by her father and the clan elders.
Yes, it’s just because of this reason!
Bai Yaosha’s mind was full of turmoil, and thinking of this slightly alleviated her guilt towards her sister.
And at this moment, she trembled, her body suddenly stiffened.
A familiar hand suddenly fell on her waist, the warmth penetrating through the thin gauze dress and sinking into her body.
"Swish!"
Bai Yaosha’s pretty face instantly turned crimson, so pink that it seemed if you squeezed lightly, she could drip water.
Even the roots behind her ears were completely red.
Although while comprehending the array patterns, the two were almost leaning together and had even been deeply connected, due to her obsession with the array, she was able to completely immerse herself in it.
Moreover, every time after comprehending the array patterns, Qin Yu would voluntarily withdraw, preventing her from feeling awkward.
As for on the Flying Ship, that kind of reliance was not the same as lying on a bed together!
"Are you... asleep?"
After a long time, Bai Yaosha asked softly, her voice trembling slightly.
However, after a while, she didn’t get a response, only Qin Yu’s steady breathing behind her.
"Hoo..."
Bai Yaosha let out a long breath; it seemed he was really exhausted.
After calming down a bit, she suddenly felt that as long as it wasn’t too excessive, this kind of contact seemed acceptable.
Just, why was his hand so hot?
Was his whole body this hot?!
"Come closer a bit."
While Bai Yaosha was lost in thought, a slightly deep voice suddenly sounded in her ear.
He...
He wasn’t asleep?
Bai Yaosha was stunned, her body instantly tensed again, and besides, to let herself come closer?
Why?
"Usually Yaoyin lets me hold her to sleep, like this, I can’t sleep."
"But..."
"Yaoyin wouldn’t mind."
Bai Yaosha fell silent.
Her sister had proactively mentioned some unbelievable things.
Of course, she knew her sister wouldn’t mind.
However, her inner restraint made her dare not move.
Finally, Qin Yu took the initiative to get closer, and the two maintained the posture they had during the comprehension of array patterns.
For the first time, Bai Yaosha clearly felt the heartbeat from behind her, strong and powerful, the rhythm causing her heartbeat to speed up, unable to calm down for a long time.
She... was sleepless.
Before Qin Yu got up, Bai Yaosha hurried off to bathe.
After getting off the bed, Qin Yu glanced at the quilt, with a shallow arc appearing at the corner of his lips.
Tsk tsk!
His sister-in-law, probably had the aura of a beautiful teacher.
...
The next day, at the peak.
The Supreme Elder and others had not left.
The reason being no other.
Even Bai Huan, this Supreme Elder, in more than a day, could not fully comprehend the occupied array patterns.
They’re now trying their best to imprint these patterns down, to slowly comprehend them later.
With their comprehension ability and spiritual power expertise, as long as they completely imprint the patterns, it won’t take long to fully understand them.
Of course, this speed can’t compare to Qin Yu personally leading; every profound change within the patterns requires them to invest their minds deeply.
"Huan Elder, if this array can be repaired, should the Clan Protection Array gain about half more potency?"
Bai Lan gazing at the partially repaired Ancient Array in front, had a hint of indescribable pride on his face.
Bai Huan glanced at him, naturally understanding his intention.
But, at this moment, he was too lazy to argue with him.
Just let him be proud for a while longer.
Once the Ancient Array is repaired, this old man wants to personally meet Qin Yu; perhaps by then, he won’t be the only one calling him son-in-law.
"Huan Elder, how should we respond to the Kong Family?"
Even though the Great Elder had the same idea, seeing Bai Lan’s wary expression, he knew hope was slim.
"This old man has communicated with the Kong Family’s Supreme Elder, using other resources to exchange for this marriage alliance."
Bai Huan said casually.
By Kong Family’s style, they are bound to open their mouth wide like lions, but having seen Qin Yu repair the Ancient Array personally, he had already made his choice.
Even if he had to pay a somewhat painful price, he couldn’t sacrifice Bai Yaosha!
Just like Bai Lan said, it’s still uncertain whether Emperor Qin can break through to Venerable.
Moreover, Bai Huan saw the possibility of Qin Yu completely repairing the Ancient Array!
If it truly can go further, the Bai Family will stand invincible!
Under the expectant gazes of a group of clan elders, two figures landed on the peak.
"Son-in-law!"
"Master Qin!"
Bai Lan and the clan elders’ faces instantly bloomed with friendly smiles, even the usually stoic Supreme Elder slightly nods supportively.
Turns out, the Supreme Elder wasn’t incapable of smiling.
"Son-in-law, has your Spiritual Power been restored so quickly? Why not rest a few more days?"
"Yes, Master Qin, we’re not in a hurry."
Looking at the clan elders who usually liked to wear stern faces now having such expressions, Bai Yaosha still felt a bit unreal.
This was completely unlike what she used to see.
"Buzz..."
After Qin Yu respectfully saluted Bai Lan and others, he didn’t hesitate, continuing to repair the Ancient Array.
He and the Bai family’s high ranks had different ideas.
Although the Bai family’s land is rich in Spiritual Qi, Qin Yu did not forget the purpose of his visit.
Moreover, in the Bai family’s land, he was unaware if any old fellows were secretly observing, so he hadn’t even returned to his Lifebound Space.
This seriously delayed his cultivation progress!
Thus, Qin Yu only wished to quickly restore the Ancient Array and leave soon.
With the experience from last time, Qin Yu’s speed of repairing the Array Patterns was obviously faster; in just a moment, one Array Pattern was successfully repaired.
Bai Huan naturally took charge of locking in the first restored Array Pattern.
Regarding this, Bai Lan and a group of Clan Elders, although they had grievances, did not show the slightest.
With Qin Yu’s speed of repairing the Array Patterns, they didn’t need to worry about not getting any; it was just a matter of sequence.
Besides, they indeed couldn’t beat the Supreme Elder, so there was no need to be stubborn.
This time, Qin Yu repaired a total of one hundred fifty Array Patterns; the originally incomplete Ancient Array only had one corner left unrepaired.
The entire Ancient Array emitted an extremely obscure and profound fluctuation, even a Foundation Establishment Realm expert standing in front of it felt a very dangerous wave.
It was unimaginable what kind of might this array would possess once completely restored.
"Dear son-in-law, thank you for your hard work!"
Seeing Qin Yu’s Spiritual Power depleted, Bai Lan again took out a precious Elixir and handed it over.
This time, other Clan Elders were also prepared, taking out Elixirs one after another to show goodwill.
Qin Yu was very aware of the importance of restoring the Ancient Array for the Ancient Race Bai family, so he didn’t refuse and accepted them all.
As Clan Elders of the Ancient Race, the Elixirs they produced, any one of which placed in an outside auction, could cause a frenzy among countless forces.
For Qin Yu, these Elixirs, which could quickly restore Spiritual Power and even increase the upper limit of Spiritual Power, were also extremely precious.
Seeing Qin Yu accept their Elixirs, a group of Clan Elders felt much more at ease.
They weren’t like Bai Lan and the Supreme Elder, who had secret thoughts; in their view, Qin Yu had great hope of becoming a Grandmaster in the path of arrays in the future.
Being able to make friends with him, not to mention these Elixirs, even if they had to give more, they were willing.
Over the next two days.
Once Qin Yu’s Spiritual Power was restored, he exerted his strength and completely repaired the remaining fifty-plus Array Patterns.
With the completion of the last Array Pattern, more than three hundred Array Patterns were linked end-to-end, forming an ancient, profound Great Array.
A mysterious, elusive aura surged from the array; the Array Patterns flickered with strange brilliance, as the Patterns surged, an obscure and indescribable force flowed within.
Very powerful.
If trapped inside, even as Elders, they couldn’t confidently say they would emerge unscathed.
At this moment, the Supreme Elder, Bai Lan, and the others wore solemn expressions on their faces, their eyes sparkling with an uncontrollable glow.
Restoring the Bai family’s Ancient Array is the lifetime pursuit of every Bai family core disciple!
During these days, they thought Qin Yu could restore the Ancient Array, but upon witnessing it firsthand, the long-dormant hot-blooded passion inside them boiled once again.
"Master Qin, if not despised, my Bai family is willing to honor you as a Tributor."
Bai Huan took a deep breath, his voice serious.
Before this, they wanted to gain insights through comprehending the Array Patterns to see if they could gain enlightenment to enhance their Spiritual Power achievement.
However, witnessing the Ancient Array restored altered their attitudes significantly.
With just this array, it’s enough to increase the Thousand Leaves Locking Heaven Array’s might by over half!
In just a few days, Qin Yu saved the Bai family tens of thousands, perhaps even longer, of years!
Bai Lan and the group of Clan Elders showed a slight change in expression, but no disagreements.
With Qin Yu’s contribution to the Bai family, he is qualified to bear the title of Tributor.
In fact, it’s still the Bai family getting the better deal.
Though they weren’t stingy with resources, restoring the Ancient Array wasn’t something that could be achieved by mere resources.
"Ancient Race Tributor?"
Qin Yu’s heart stirred.
Regarding the Bai family, even though he only saw the tip of the iceberg, he could imagine the profound foundation of this Ancient Race.
Perhaps even the Empress hasn’t expected that the Bai family’s Supreme Elder would offer such conditions?
"Shall we discuss this later?"
Qin Yu hesitated briefly; though tempted to agree, he was unsure of the constraints of being an Ancient Race Tributor.
Better to ask the Empress before making a decision.
"Hmm?"
Bai Huan was taken aback.
The Bai family’s Tributor position, from ancient times, had only been held by two people.
Moreover, those individuals were all Array Grandmasters of their time!
Currently, the Bai family had no external Tributor.
Qin Yu actually declined?
"Lan Uncle, is this token satisfactory?"
Qin Yu’s gaze turned to Bai Lan.
"Absolutely satisfactory!"
Bai Lan laughed heartily, for him, what could be a better token in the world?
"Qin Yu has one more request; I wonder if Uncle Lan can agree?"
Qin Yu hesitated slightly, looked at Bai Yaosha, then took a deep breath.
"Dear son-in-law, no need to be polite! As long as I can do it, don’t say one matter; even a thousand or ten thousand I will agree to."
Bai Lan grandly waved his hand, and laughed.
"I wish to restore one more Ancient Array."
Qin Yu’s heart eased, then said.
"Alright."
Without even thinking, Bai Lan agreed.
"Wait a minute."
Suddenly, Bai Lan reacted, stunned.
Bai Huan and several Clan Elders also displayed puzzled expressions, eyes filled with bafflement.
What does this mean?
"Didn’t Uncle Lan say restoring one Ancient Array counts as a token?"
"I want to restore one more."
"Swipe!"
Before Bai Lan and the others could react, not far away Bai Yaosha’s pretty face turned crimson.
This guy, does he intend to offer two tokens?
Sister and myself?!
