The Ruler
90. The Hua City Palace.
Suddenly the room became silent, even Hua Zuigao and Hua Zhanglao who had previously kept guessing, continued to guess, now feeling confident that the figure of Qing Ruo who was before him was a person who really had a strong background.
" The patriarch, the golden badge of the elite forces of the celestial empire is not something that can be used as a toy," Hua Zhanglao said, speaking to Hua Zuigao via telepathy.
" The elder is right. I finally understood the reason Qing Ruo was so brave. It was because he was under the protection of these three elite army generals. Just look at how the three of them respect him so much."
" The patriarch is right. Then what should we do? Offending the celestial empire with our current strength, it was that it was tantamount to suicide, then who was this Qing Ruo really?" looking at Qing Ruo curiously.
Other than Hua Zuigao and Hua Zhanglao who were so busy with their secret discussions, the elders sitting on the golden seats also did the same.
" We've really offended a great power..."
" If we suddenly soften, then it will show that we are weak, but if we insist then surely we will become enemies of the celestial empire..."
Qing Ruo smiled looking at the change in the faces of all the figures that were inside the room.
" Patriarch Hua Zuigao, to be honest this meeting is my wish, with the aim of reconciling you guys and rebuilding Shen Guoshi Hua's strength, but seeing how you guys behave, it really disappointed me. Let alone me who is someone else, Hua Zhen who is your brother alone, you are being treated unfairly. You overestimate yourself by looking down on others." Qing Ruo.
" Young ruler, please forgive. Especially our inappropriate attitude before. At least we don't mean to look down on others. To be honest our actions were because we were too careful to meet other people, even with our own clan members." Hua Zhanglao said, defending himself, making Qing Ruo suddenly laugh.
" Great Elder, I understand that, but this action of yours is very funny. You can say sorry to others, but not to your own family members..." Said Qing Ruo, while directing his gaze at Hua Zhen and his entourage, who were speechless.
" Young ruler, honestly I still personally do not want to forgive the actions done by ancestor Hua Wen who has really brought us down. In addition to being embarrassed, his actions also made us immortal enemies of Shen Shandian Luo. Even I guess the elders who are in this room are still unable to forgive the action, too" Hua Zhanglao replied.
Qing Ruo shook her head.
" Older, bad events in the past are painful, but there are some events that need to be accepted and released. If you still stand in the same place, and treat your own brother like this? Then so stupid of you. Elder, liahatlah! they were a generation that did not know the events that happened in the past, but had to shoulder the burden of the faults of others, wasn't that unfair?"
Everyone in the room was silent. There were those who paid respect to Qing Ruo who were so eager to reconcile them, and there were also those who hated Qing Ruo so much, for meddling too much in other people's affairs, however they could only endure the feeling, given Hua Zhanglao's now softened attitude towards Qing Ruo.
" But the young ruler, it won't change anything" Zhanglao said.
" What a shallow thought. How could you possibly say that. Hua Zhen's residence has always respected you and still considers itself part of Shen Guoshi Hua. If they suddenly left Hua City, then joined another Clan and put on a rebellion, what would you do? Elders, obviously they themselves already know your weaknesses and strengths, but they even allow themselves to be oppressed by the sign, it is all because they see you as their family. If they do revolt, then you will feel what we feel," Qing Ruo said in a loud voice, making them even more curious about Qing Ruo's background.
Now the room was completely silent. The last words Qing Ruo uttered opened the minds of the elders.
" It's not easy to build something that has been destroyed, and you still have that chance because it's just fixing something that's broken" Qing Ruo said once again.
" Young ruler, are we able to leave already?" Ask Hua Zun.
Suddenly Hua Zuigao stood up from his chair, walked up to Qing Ruo and cupped his hands respectfully.
" Young ruler, thank you for reminding and opening our minds. I'm Hua Zuigao asking respectfully, so that you don't leave this room. Because to be honest, there are a lot of things I still want to ask." Letting go of Qing Ruo, Heian Bai and his entourage sat on the seat of honor.
Qing Ruo was silent for a moment, pretending to hesitate. In her heart, she felt quite happy.
" Priarch, my business to heal the trauma of Hua Diu's daughter, and reconcile you with Hua Zhen's brother's residence is done. I don't think I have any more reason to stay." Looking at Hua Zuigao seriously.
" But the young ruler.." with a doubtful face.
" Young ruler, our time is limited, we must leave immediately," Murong Jianyu said, making Hua Zuigao and the elders feel uneasy.
" Jianyu," Qing Ruo said softly. Making Murong Jianyu bow his head.
"But the ruler, there are still many places that the Ruler wants to visit. After all we've been in this place for so long. But there is only debate. Let alone to ask, they did not even pay the slightest respect to the person who was visiting in his residence." Talking while lowering his head.
The manner and demeanor of Murong Jianyu who was so respectful towards Qing Ruo, completely opened everyone's eyes, even making Hua Zuigao's tongue crabbed.
" Priarch, I apologize for the carelessness of my ministry." Cupped her hands together.
" Jianyu, maybe we can already leave," Qing Ruo said once more.
" Brother Ruo, what about the purpose of the brother who wants to rebuild the strength of the Hua clan?" heian Bai asked with a serious face, making everyone in the room speechless.
Heian Bai's words made some of them so curious, yet others just sneered in his heart, looking down at Qing Ruo lightly.
" Wants to build up the strength of the Clan, but he himself still needs the help of others. Son, who else do you want to deceive..."
" Sister Bai," Qing Ruo said, shaking her head, looking at the elders who were inside the room leisurely.
" Good brother, I understand, " replied Heian Bai.
" The patriarch, I am Luo Qing Ruo, personally, and represent my father, Shen Shandian Luo Feng, apologizing for your downfall, and officially stopping this enmity." While showing the golden Phoenix badge, as well as taking out one large chest that contained a hundred evolved immortal peaches, and placing them before them, made Hua Zuigao and Hua Zhanglao, respectively, as well as everyone in the room was speechless, pecking with a stiffened face.
" Learn from the downfall of Shen Shandian Luo's first breed. If I alone can forgive the actions of those of you who always come to the south, then how can you ignore and look down on your own brother," Qing Ruo said firmly, while taking out two different chests, which contained two hundred golden apples, and two hundred grains of immortal earth grapes that had also evolved.
" Brother Zhen, if anything happens, you know what you should do. Even though we have fallen. But if only to destroy Shen Guoshi Hua, it is not a difficult thing for us," he said staring coldly at Hua Zuigao, while releasing a level eight semi-eternal aura, he said, the one he absorbed from Yin Gan's soul force earlier, then brought Heian Bai, Dalu Rong and Murong Jianyu out of the room.
