The Ruler
208. Leaving Da Men city.
The Yanshi Clan's main room.
Yanshi Gong who was accompanied by five other elders, as well as a few disciples, sat inside the room quietly.
" If I don't return, then my duties in the clan, I leave it entirely to brother Choi" Yanshi Gong said as he sipped his drink leisurely.
" But brother, what if the city leader asks another brother?"
" Then do it." said Yanshi Gong.
At the time when they were conversing, not long after, Qing Ruo and Long Chen entered the room.
" Older," Qing Ruo said greeting everyone in the room respectfully.
" Young master, master Long Chen," said Yanshi Gong and his entourage, standing up to welcome Qing Ruo's arrival respectfully, while welcoming Qing Ruo and Long Chen to a seat of honor.
" Thank you," Qing Ruo said respectfully.
" Young master, they are the elders of the Yanshi clan. As for the patriarch is traveling far and has not returned," said Yanshi Gong to introduce one by one the figure is friendly. Moreover, Yanshi Gong also introduced the five geniuses of their clan.
" Yangshi Shengyin, is the main disciple of our clan and his sister Yanshi Wuyin," he said introducing the girl who was the doorkeeper of the previous room.
" The elders, brother Shenyin, sister Wuyin and brothers, I am Qing Ruo. It was nice to meet the elders," Qing Ruo said, introducing herself respectfully, then followed by Long Chen who introduced himself as Qing Ruo's servant.
" Young master, thank you for stopping by this small clan of ours," Yanshi Choi said respectfully.
" Older, this this is an honor for me, because it was introduced by the elders all to rest in this place" Qing Ruo said with her friendly attitude.
" Young master, regarding our clan disciples. Is there something that the young master wants to say." said Yanshi Gong.
Qing Ruo was silent for a moment, observing the five Clan disciples who were already at the elementary to second tier of the semi-eternal casually.
" Old Gong, I am still young and just like them. Do I deserve it?"
Qing Ruo's words made Yanshi Gong and his entourage look at each other.
" Young master is too self-humiliating. Even though you are very young, but there is such a great distance separating them from you" Yanshi Gong said seriously.
Qing Ruo shook her head.
" Older, they are a generation of the Yanshi Clan who are extremely outstanding. They can already be at this point, it's a really amazing thing. After all, you also should not compare the achievements of others with what they have obtained. Elders, those with talent and ability should be fully supported," he said a little unhappy because compare like that.
" Good sir."
" Shenyin Brother, I just want to say that, those who work will enjoy the results. In addition, do not let the ease of making us forget to try. One more thing, the real training was when we were outside the Clan," Qing Ruo said kindly, giving each of the disciples a storage ring containing three golden apples.
" Young master, this is...." Yanshi Shengyin said hesitantly, with a repulsive attitude.
" Please brothers not to refuse," Qing Ruo said kindly.
" Thank you young master," said the five disciples respectfully.
" Elder Gong, like we can already leave," Qing Ruo said.
" Good young master." Then talk to his entourage.
" Brother, remember my previous message," Yanshi Gong said in seriousness.
" Okay" the elders replied in response.
" Olders, sorry can't linger, because we're leaving soon. Thank you for giving us a ride to stay and rest in this place," Qing Ruo said as she handed the storage ring to Yanshi Choi, but she immediately refused.
" Young master, your presence in this place is an honor for a small clan like us. I'm sorry we really can't accept this master's gift" he said respectfully.
" But young master, previously you've already given the disciples of our clan....."
" Mister, please accept," Long Chen said solemnly speaking telepathically to the figure of the elder.
" Ba-good young master. Thank you" he said respectfully, then received the storage ring.
" Okay, elders, and brethren, we go first," Qing Ruo said as she cupped her hands respectfully.
" Young master, come.." said Yanshi Gong leading the way, leaving the room.
The five elders and the five disciples of the Yanshi clan then escorted Qing Ruo and his entourage out of the main room.
" Young master, brother Gong, be careful" they said respectfully.
" Alright, thank you," Qing Ruo responded respectfully.
After Qing Ruo and his entourage had completely left the place, the five elders and disciples of the clan then returned within the hall and inspected the storage ring given by Qing Ruo earlier.
" This...' said Yanshi Choi with wide eyes, while handing the storage ring to another elder.
" Five bodies and five golden apples that have evolved" said the elder in amazement.
" This is such an incredible high resource" said the other elder happily.
" If only you had refused diligently before, surely we wouldn't have gotten this precious resource." Making Yanshi Choi who received the storage ring earlier smile wryly.
" I actually wanted to refuse, but Mr. Long Chen insisted," said Yanshi Choi, directing her gaze at Yanshi Shengyin and her entourage who looked so excited.

Somewhere else.
Qing Ruo, Long Chen and Yanshi Gong who had come out of Da Men city, continued to move towards the north.
" Swhus... Swhus.." their figures darted leisurely, without hurry.
Three hours later, they finally saw an endless stretch of misty green forest.
" Young master, we have reached the border of the black forest. It looks so beautiful, but this place is very dangerous and scary. Starting from this place, we will continue the journey without being able to fly freely," said Yanshi Gong, explaining that the forest sky cannot be crossed freely.
Qing Ruo and Long Chen who knew a little about the area, nodded their heads, listening to the explanation seriously.
" Young master, we will move towards the forbidden silver cave, which is in the inner part of this forest," he said as he led the way.
" Alright," Qing Ruo replied, as she moved following him.
" It seems like Yanshi Gong really knows the ins and outs of this black forest," Long Chen said, speaking to Qing Ruo via telepathy.
" True, even the silver caves that are not listed on the secret map, are also known to him." Qing Ruo chimed in, as he continued to move into the huta.
" Swhus.. swhus." they moved, entering the forest with the giant trees carefully.
Two kilo meters later, Qing Ruo and Long Chen still did not sense the presence of the beast figure. But above the sky of the forest, they began to hear the whirring of wind blades that forbade anyone to fly freely over it.
" Ruler, poison leaves," said Long Chen who began to feel the presence of poison spreading in that place.
" Right," Qing Ruo said as she continued to move.
" Swhuss.. swhuss." their figure, which looks like a small bee among the giant trees, moves from tree to tree at high speed.
