Chapter 760 Chi Jing (1/2)
In the spacious carriage, Yi Qiushui’s eyes shifted to Zhou Yuan as she spoke softly, a very well-disguised relief in her voice. It was obvious that this journey placed a lot of pressure on her.
Next to Yi Qiushui sat Yi Dong’er, who was holding her hand. She stared unblinkingly at Zhou Yuan with her huge eyes wide with admiration. She had also learnt about the great battle that happened last night.
Zhou Yuan nodded. He also felt a little uncomfortable sitting in the carriage. Even Mu Zhao had never received such treatment before.
“We really have to thank brother Zhou Yuan. Our Yi clan will not forget this.” Yi Qiushui smiled.
“I was just paid to take care of a problem.” Zhou Yuan shook his head and refused to take credit. If he weren’t lucky enough to meet the Yi clan sisters, his situation would have been much worse.
If he were a little unlucky, it was really possible that the Genesis beasts in the wild would have swallowed him alive.
“Miss Yi...”
“If brother Zhou doesn’t mind, you can call me Qiushui.” Yi Qiushui lifted a teapot with her small beautiful hand and elegantly poured Zhou Yuan a cup of fragrant tea.
“Of course, if brother Zhou feels that I have been unfriendly towards you before and is unhappy about it, I can apologise.”
Zhou Yuan awkwardly scratched his head. He had realized that Yi Qiushui was indeed not a simple person and could send whatever he wanted to say back into his stomach with just a few words. It was no wonder Qiu Ji said that Yi Qiushui played a huge role in stabilising Xiaoxuan Province so quickly for the Yi clan.
And Zhou Yuan also understood that Yi Qiushui’s attitude towards him had changed drastically. The main reason was because the strength that he had shown had been recognised.
However, he didn’t feel that Yi Qiushui acted pragmatically. Nobody in the world would act nice for no reason, not to mention that he and Yi Qiushui had just met.
But Zhou Yuan didn’t think too much about it. He smiled and nodded. “Okay, Qiushui.”
Yi Qiushui intended to befriend him, in the same way that Zhou Yuan also thought she was a person worth being friends with. Moreover, it would be good for him to meet a trustworthy friend.
Yi Qiushui gave a faint smile. Her beautiful eyes and face looked more stunning than usual. It was obvious that she was in a very good mood because she knew that, from Zhou Yuan’s tone of voice, they had become friends.
She was very curious about Zhou Yuan, a person who had come from another heaven and had shown amazing talent.
“Qiushui...I recently arrived in Tianyuan Region and have no knowledge whatsoever of the situation here. I was hoping you could tell me in case I offend people that I shouldn’t.” Zhou Yuan smiled calmly.
Yi Qiushui wasn’t surprised. After all, Zhou Yuan was from another heaven and had come to an unfamiliar place. The most important task for him was naturally to find out the distribution of forces here.
“Tianyuan Region was created by supreme sovereign Cang Yuan. This, you probably already know...” Yi Qiushui revealed a reverent expression on her beautiful face when she mentioned the supreme sovereign Cang Yuan.
“Unfortunately, Lord Cang Yuan left Hunyuan Heaven many years ago, and there still hasn’t been any news about him, even till now. There are even rumours that he has passed away...” Yi Qiushui sighed. His disappearance was the main reason for the turbulence all these years.
