The Ruler
325. Nan Yin Peak Palace Hall.
The information conveyed by Yin Gang regarding making the elders who were in the room really could not help but be curious.
" Prince Gang, if we may know, where is Prince Bei's brother from?" yin Xiolong asked with a curious face. But Yin Gang had not yet answered the question, suddenly the air in the room shook.
" Swhuss.. swhus.." the figures of Yin Bei and Qing Ruo appeared before them.
" Prince," said everyone, kneeling respectfully, looking at the figure of Qing Ruo who was at Yin Bei's side curiously.
" Old elders, wake up" said Yin Bei kindly and respectfully.
" Thank you, prince..." While standing up and occupying his respective seats, with eyes fixed on Qing Ruo.
" Brother Bei, lord Ruo," said Yin Gang, allowing them to occupy the main seat and seat of honor.
" Thank you, prince," Qing Ruo said kindly and respectfully.
The presence of Yin Bei and Qing Ruo made the room go silent. But happiness seemed to radiate from their faces, especially after they confirmed that Yin Bei had actually recovered, even more so with the presence of Qing Ruo who had previously been so curious.
" The elders, it just so happens that brother Bei, and master Ruo have come, then this conversation we can start," said Yin Gang, opening the conversation calmly.
" Good prince," said everyone respectfully.
" Okay, brother Bei," said Yin Gang, allowing Yin Bei to open the meeting.
" Olders, let's go straight to this important meeting, but before that, I'd like to introduce a suadara like me. Brother Ruo," said Yin Bei to let Qing Ruo introduce himself.
" Thank you, brother." Standing up, he introduced himself.
" The elders, I am Qing Ruo, a brother of Yin Bei," he said as he cupped his hands respectfully.
Some of the elders looked so excited, but some of them also turned on dislike faces, including Yin Xiolong, making Yin Bei and Yin Gang seem displeased.
After introducing himself, Qing Ruo then sat back down, paying attention to the reactions of the elders who rejected his presence.
" Brother Ruo," Yin Bei said with an uneasy feeling.
" Brother Bei, I understand, because not only this time my presence was rejected, but almost everywhere in this area of the Black Ice gate," Qing Ruo said calmly.
" But brother Ruo, this action of theirs is tantamount to rejecting my presence," he said as he stared intently at the elders in the room.
" Brother Bei, I'm sure they didn't mean to" Qing Ruo responded.
The already upset Yin Bei, shook her head many times, looking at the elders who were now silent lowered their heads.
" I want to know why you are unhappy with my brother's presence, but you need to know, without his help I may have rotted and died" he said loudly, making the elders speechless without daring to raise their heads.
" Prince, we didn't mean that, but isn't accepting someone from the Qing clan a forbidden thing" Yin Xiolong said.
Yin Bei shook her head.
" Are you still willing to obey and hold to that unreasonable rule? Shen Guoshi Yisheng died because of his ridiculousness, then you fostered hatred in your heart to hate those who do not even have a direct relationship with that ridiculous death. The simple question, did Suadara Ruo choose to be born in the Qing clan? It seems like the elders have to do a lot of missions outside, in order to better understand how complicated the rules of life are," he said making Yin Xiolong like slapped.
The atmosphere that was previously filled with an aura of happiness and spirit, was now becoming tense and silent, as the name Qing Ruo was holding turned out to be a problem.
Qing Ruo who felt her presence being a problem, tried to straighten the matter out, but suddenly Qing Ling's voice asked her to return to the soul world.
Qing Ruo let out a long breath, then stood up from her chair.
" Brother Bei, please speak about this matter carefully and I will wait for confirmation from brother. If you really need help, just let me know, and if you don't, give me some reassurance, because I don't want to linger in the Black Ice Gate, either," he spoke through telepathy calmly.
" What will the brothers do?" yin Bei asked seriously, looking at Qing Ruo who wanted to leave that place.
" But brother." he said hesitantly with a guilty face.
" Brother Bei, everything must be discussed, let alone this concerns the decisions of the crowd. Just settle this matter, I will wait for the news of brother," Qing Ruo said calmly.
" Good brother, thank you," he said as he looked at Qing Ruo respectfully.
After saying those words, Qing Ruo then left that place.
" Swhuss.." his figure vanished from inside the room without leaving the slightest trace of aura.
" You have humiliated him and embarrassed me. How outrageous! If you don't accept his existence, can't you respect me!"
Qing Ruo's actions and Yin Bei's words, made Yin Xiolong and everyone in the room misbehave.
Suddenly the room became silent, because Yin Bei also fell silent without speaking a word.
" Brother Xiolong, speak up. We have to give a reason. Don't make the prince even more upset" said an elder speaking via telepathy.
" But brother, I don't dare either." Yin Xiolong responded.
" Prince, our actions have truly gone beyond our limits and we apologize. It is not that we are not grateful for what master Qing Ruo has done, but it is purely for our good, because we do not want this business of our clan to involve others, even more so from the Qing clan, as we believe this matter will bring even greater trouble, especially the other ancient clans who do not like their existence," Yin Xiolong said, break that silence.
Yin Bei let out a long breath, looking at the elders in the room sadly.
" Olders, I also apologize for bringing others to this forbidden palace, but to me, brother Qing Ruo is my brother. He was my brother-in-law who even willingly gave his blood power to help me. Just as I respect you, so do I respect him. He was a meritorious person in my life, which made me now able to stand in this place. But I am so surprised, how you who are already on the edge of the horn still hold such a principle, even though people out there, no one cares about your fate," yin Bei said slowly.
Yin Xiolong and his entourage who had no reason to be able to refute the statement could only fall silent.
" Prince Bei, right. We were too rash," said an elder speaking.
" Old Shenkai, we should be able to see this situation clearly. Let alone outsiders, peak Zhu Yin and peak Dong Yin who are still one blood with us alone are currently looking for ways and opportunities to destroy us. Need the elders to know, brother Ruo came to this place not on behalf of the Qing clan, but as the young master of the sacred mountain of Ping Xie, my fellow disciple," Yin Bei explained, make everyone in the room stand up.
" Young Master of the sacred mountain Ping Xie, but how is it possible." said the elders muttered and looked at each other, as if doubting Yin Bei's explanation.
" Shen Guoshi Shenghuo is rumored to have long disappeared, but that does not mean they disappeared. At the main peak of Ping Xie Sky Mountain, there were still clan members left and Qing Ruo's brother was their only disciple. Do the elders know how I got this immortality? It was all because of the services of the sky mountain Ping Xie," Yin Bei said seriously.
Yin Shenkai, Yin Xiolong and his entourage fell silent, shaking their heads slowly.
" If he is the only disciple of the Shen Guoshi Shenghuo clan, then what about the relief troops." Yin Xiolong said, while setting his eyes on Yin Gang.
" The elders, the relief troops that came were not from the sacred mountain of Ping Xie, but from the Jin clan on behalf of the young ruler of the Dark Forest," Yin Gang said, making the place into an uproar.
" Prince Bei, this."the elders objected because they did not understand the explanation.
" Older, the relief force in question is indeed from the Jin clan, but they came at the request of brother Qing Ruo with his status as the young ruler of the Dark Forest," yin Bei explained that making the previously quiet room now come to life, especially the elders who were so worried about the explanation.
" Qing Clan, but it has the status of the Dark Forest Young Ruler, even cooperating with the Jin clan..."
" Older, age teaches us to be wise, especially to behave to anyone. Brother Qing Ruo is actually such a terrifying person with such a terrifyingly entrenched background. If it wasn't for his status as my brother, maybe I would have kneeled before him. Regarding the Jin Clan, do you think Jin Kong is a weak person? He was also already at the eternal stage but obedient and respectful to Qing Ruo's brother." he said firmly, making the atmosphere inside the room return to a quiet one.
" Prince, we're sorry. We are really stupid," Yin Xiolong said with a feeling of guilt.
" You have refused his help" Yin Bei said softly.
" I hope master Qing Ruo can understand this and not withdraw his help" Yi Gang said, chiming in.
" Hopefully so," said Yin Bei quietly, making the place back in silence.
