The Ruler
282. Moving Towards the Yin Sky Mountain.
In his room.
While waiting for his order and Hong Di to arrive, Qing Ruo checked his storage ring, checking every soul message he received, while informing Mao Tang and Mao Lei of explaining his plans to the Hong clan patriarch.
Not long after, after he finished informing Mao Tang and Mao Lei who were guarding the Gu Lu city, some auras moved closer to his room.
" Young master, someone wants to meet you" said the waiter behind the door, speaking respectfully.
" Please come in," Qing Ruo said kindly.
Not long after that the door of the room opened, displaying the figure of a middle-aged man entering the room, staring at Qing Ruo in surprise.
" Young master, are you." he said hesitantly.
Qing Ruo nodded her head calmly.
" Patriarch, sit down" he said cordially.
A waiter entered the room with food and drink.
" Young master," he said asking for permission to arrange the meal and drink with respect.
" Please," Qing Ruo said kindly.
Not long after, having finished arranging the food on the table, the servants left the room.
Quietly Qing Ruo then grabbed the drink that was on the table and poured it on the available glass.
" Patriarch," said respectfully as he gave the drink.
" Thank you, young master." While grabbing the drink given to him, then sipping the drink calmly.
" The Patriarch, I'm Qing Ruo," he said introducing himself, Hong Di's making almost spouted a drink from his mouth.
" What do you mean Shen Guoshi Qing?" while keeping your distance.
" Right," Qing Ruo replied honestly, making the previously friendly-looking Hong Di now begin to show his unfriendly attitude.
Qing Ruo smiled casually.
" I don't know what my ancestors have done in this region, so you hate your descendants so much. If you know like this, I'd rather just destroy the body," he said slowly making Hong Di misbehaved and feel guilty.
Suddenly the place became quiet.
" Priarch, I found them suicidal in the presence of the people of the Yin clan, so please leave," Qing Ruo said breaking the silence.
Hong Di who still looked puzzled due to his attitude, was still speechless and shuddered.
" Since you don't want to leave, then I'll go" Qing Ruo said as she moved from her seat, then left the room.
A minute passed, yet Hong Di still did not move from his place, until the voice of the servant who was talking outside the room shocked him.
" Young master," he said calling Qing Ruo who had left the place.
Guiltfully, Hong Di then left the room to catch up with Qing Ruo.
Throughout the hallway of the room, Hong Di kept asking Qing Ruo whereabouts to the servants present, but none of them saw him, making him even more guilty.
" Hais, why did I become a self-informed person," her inner self as she continued to move.
Not long after, Hong Di finally arrived at the entrance of the restaurant.
" Servant, have you guys seen the young master who booked room number nine before?" while explaining Qing Ruo's traits in detail.
" What does the patriarch mean, not a handsome young master in a simple white robe?"
" Right," replied Hong Di.
" Oh, the young master is gone," said the maid respectfully, making Hong Di only able to sigh long.
" Thank you waiter" he said, leaving the restaurant.
" Searching for it is also impossible, at least I already know the mastermind of Ye er's death," his inner self with an erratic feeling as he continued to move his legs.
*****
Two hundred meters from the restaurant gate. In his hiding place, Qing Ruo stood up accompanied by Mao Tang and Mao Lei to see the appearance of the Hong Clan Patriarch.
" The ruler, Hong Di," Moa Lei said, showing a middle-aged figure who appeared to be in a hurry.
" Well, according to our plan, meet him and make him an ally of Yuan Shui" Qing Ruo said.
" Good ruler, we understand," Mao Tang said respectfully.
" Alright, I will continue on my way," Qing Ruo said.
Qing Ruo clasped her head.
" Guys take care of yourself." Passing from that place.
After Qing Ruo left, Mao Tang and Mao Lei then moved closer to Hong Di who was so hasty.
" Patriarch," said Mao Tang greeting the middle-aged figure kindly.
" Gentlemen, who are you?" hong Di asked with his unfriendly attitude.
Mao Tang and Mao Lei then displayed the gold badges of the Yuan clan.
" Patriarch, we were asked by His Majesty to protect every pillar patriarch of Gu Lu city," Mao Tang explained, leaving Hong Di speechless.
" Why could that be?" ask Hong Di who is now starting to be friendly.
" Patriarch, the safety of the clan leaders is paramount, moreover the Yin clan is getting bolder, so Your Majesty is taking this precaution in secret, beg the patriarch not to misunderstand," he said Mao Lei with respect.
Hong Di who felt extremely at a disadvantage by the Yin clan with the death of Hong Ye nodded his head.
" Thank you sir, if so let's go to the clan, I'll show you something" he said seriously.
" Okay, Patriarch," Mao Tang said respectfully, then followed the figure calmly.
" Brother, it seems like the ruler's plan succeeded" Mao Tang said speaking to Mao Lei via telepathy.
" It seems so," said Mao Lei happily.
****
Somewhere else. Qing Ruo finally arrived at the east gate, then marched along with the other visitors who were about to leave the city.
While waiting for an examination from the soldiers on guard, Qing Ruo received a soul message from Mao Tang explaining that their plan of drawing on the Hong clan's power to support Yuan Shui had succeeded.
" At least one by one big time joined," his mind was happy.
Not long after, Qing Ruo's turn came.
" Young master," said the soldier calling Qing Ruo to enter the checkpoint in a friendly manner.
" Good master," Qing Ruo said as she pointed at the Hu clan badge she was using.
" Shen Hu, it turns out that the young master's journey is quite far away," the soldier said kindly.
" I don't think it's true, far away if I go to the western region," Qing Ruo, who used Hu Yan Lan's Clan badge, said in a friendly chat.
" Please, young master," said the soldier, welcoming Qing Ruo with respect.
" Good master, thank you," Qing Ruo said respectfully, then moved away from the place.
One kilo meter away from the city gate, Qing Ruo then changed her appearance with the figure of Yin Gan while speeding up her movements.
" Shwus.. swhus.." his figure vanished in the darkness of the night, darting towards the Yin Sky Mountain quickly.
***
Somewhere else.
The five Yin clan disciples that Qing Ruo had followed in the previous city, stood guard on a small hill that was twenty-five kilometers away from Gu Lu city.
Behind the illusory formation spells, and the darkness of the night, they stood quietly, observing every movement present in the region closely.
" It's more convenient to be on guard in Gu Lu city, whereas in this place, what we get," said one disciple grumbling.
" If you don't like it, just tell the senior directly, don't nag at the back" said another student interrupted in annoyance.
While talking, they suddenly saw the figure of Qing Ruo crossing the area.
" Sister, look.." pointed towards Qing Ruo who was moving across her hiding place.
" Pursue!" said the leader of the group while moving following Qing Ruo at his top speed
****
In front of the five young men.
Qing Ruo who was unaware of the existence of the five Yin clan disciples hiding behind that illusion shield, continued to move calmly.
Not too long later while entering the forbidden area for eleven kilometers, Qng Ruo suddenly felt three clusters of auras from different directions, moving towards him.
" Did anyone see my arrival?" His mind was astonished as he continued to move.
