The Ruler
93. Qing Ruo Plan.
Three kilometers east of Hua City fortress, Hu Shan and his entourage who were waiting for Qing Ruo's arrival, chatted casually, telling their impression while in the city.
" It's just Hua City, but the beauty is incredible" Hu Shan said excitedly.
" Right, this is just a small town, then what about other big cities." said Jinse no less excited, regardless of Yu Jieru and Liong Hei who sat in front of them, who occasionally held back laughter and shook their heads.
" I can't wait to be adventuring with the young ruler soon" Tu Hai said.
"Are you sure?" ask Yu Jieru.
" Do you mean Brother?"
" It's a small town and the rules aren't so much either. You need to know, in the big city the rules are also very much. Even a small offense will lead to death, so I'm not sure the ruler will allow us to move freely, let alone with this large number of people" Yu Jieru explained, making Hu Shan and his so excited entourage suddenly fall silent.
" Brother Lianghao, is it?" tian Feng asked, with a serious face.
" Of course," Liong Hei replied, making Tian Feng and his entourage speechless, turning the faces of Jinse and his entourage sour.
Suddenly the laughter of Yu Jieru and Liong Hei startled them, making Hu Shan and his entourage even more astonished.
" Brother Liong Hei, look at their faces," said Yu Jieru laughing out loud, making Hu Shan and his entourage finally understand, that Yu Jieru and Liong Hei were pranking them.
" Not funny." said Jinse annoyed.
" Of course it's funny, look at your face." said Liong Hei laughing out loud.
" Swhuss..." Qing Ruo suddenly appeared and surprised them.
" Lord," they said with respect.
" I'm sorry to keep you waiting" Qing Ruo said with her friendly smile, staring at a different look on her face.
" Jinse, Hu Shan, what's wrong?" qing Ruo asked.
The group shakes its head.
" There is no ruler, we just lost a bet to brothers Liong Hei and Lianghao," Hu Shan replied.
Qing Ruo nodded her head, while looking at Yu Jieru and Liong Hei who looked happy.
" Lord, are we leaving soon?" Liong Hei asked excitedly.
" right. Are you ready?"
" We are ready rulers" replied Jinse.
" Alright, let's go," Qing Ruo said then took them, moving away from the place.
" Swhussis... Swhus.." -...." The glint of golden light that looked so contrasting from the darkness of the night, streaked, moving away from the place.
" Lord, where are we headed?" ask Qiong Du.
" We're going to the city of the Golden Lake," Qing Ruo replied.
" Is it far away?" Asked Hu Shan.
" A little over three to four days drive from Hua city. Qing Ruo explained.
" Lord, then what is our plan?" ask Liong Hei.
" Starting an adventure," Qing Ruo replied casually, making their sour face so excited.
" Does that mean we won't be back in the soul world again?" Ask Tu Hai.
" Oh, do you want to return to the world of souls?" qing Ruo asked, tagging them with a serious face, making them speechless.
" Does that mean you've been unhappy in the world of the soul?" qing Ruo asked once more.
" Lord, we don't mean that. In this wonderful divine land, it would be a pity if..."
" I got it. Since the soul world is not as beautiful as the divine land, it is no wonder that you guys are bored," Qing Ruo said softly, holding back her laughter, looking at the reaction of Hu Shan and his entourage who were about to fall from the sky.
" Ruler, we.." said Hu Shan and his entourage stopped, staring at Qing Ruo guiltily, making Qing Ruo suddenly laugh.
" Hu Shan, I was just kidding.." while holding back a laugh.
" Hais is the ruler," Hu Shan and his entourage said as they shook their heads. Let alone looking at Yu Jieru and Liong Hei who were laughing out loud.
" It has fallen on the stairs, before we were worked by brother Liong Hei and brother Lianghao, now by the ruler," said Tu Hai.
" Keep moving," Qing Ruo said.
" Good ruler..."
" From now on you guys are free," Qing Ruo said making their mood happy, but still silent.
" You can already embark on an adventure, but I want to take you to the city of Golden Lake. There I will go to the Shen Guoshi Yin Clan at the northern black ice gate, and you guys go to the city of Semi Southern Flower. In that city Luo Zhao will guide you to the forbidden mountain of the Semi South." With a serious face.
" What does the Ruler mean?" tian Lu Ye asked.
" We'll stay and build strength in that place."
" Lord, what if the Semi-South Mountain is occupied by another power?" ask Yu Jieru.
" It's better, because we don't have to bother anymore."
" What is the ruler?"
" Ambrace them. To rule a place, it must not always use violence and oppression, but through good cooperation."
" The ruler is right, for oppression will give birth to hatred. But what if they don't want to?"
" Give it to me. At least you guys have arrived in the city of Semi South Flower, that alone is enough," Qing Ruo said.
" Good ruler..." While continuing to move.

In the Soul World.
Qing Yong Jun who was cultivating in the blue jade palace courtyard, was startled by the arrival of Huo Mingzhi and Huo Zhaodau.
" Young master, the soul mirror hall has opened," Huo Mingzhi said excitedly.
" Really?" With a cheerful face.
" Right, but since it's still night, so the scenery outside is still not clearly involved." Huo Zhaudao explained.
" It doesn't matter. It's just active again, that's enough." Qing Yong Jun happily said, standing up from his seat, then carrying Huo Mingzhi and Huo Zhaudao away from the blue jade palace, leaving behind the blue jade palace, towards the Hall of the mirror of the soul that is in the middle of the Soul World.
****
In the outside world.
Qing Ruo and his entourage continued to move away from Hua city, towards the Golden Lake city that was in the North.
Two days later, in the morning. They saw a small town, which was a human city.
" Blue River City," Qing Ruo explained.
" Lord, are we going to stop in that city?" asked Hu Shan.
Qing Ruo shook her head.
" We'll just go straight to the city of the Golden Lake."
" Good,"
The Blue River city.
" Swhus..." Qing Ruo and his entourage approached the city fortress. A few soldiers standing guard over the city's fortress, approached them."
" Mister," said the soldier greeting Qing Ruo and his entourage kindly.
" Soldier," Qing Ruo said to greet the soldier kindly, then explained his purpose of passing through the city, while showing the golden badge of the Hua Clan.
" Good young master," said the soldier kindly as he asked his entourage to open the city gates.
" Thank you soldier" said Qing Ruo bringing the troupe into the city.
Inside the city fortress. The commander of the troops directed Qing Ruo and his entourage to use a horse carriage, to speed up the movement of Qing Ruo and his entourage.
" It's amazing" said Hu Shan speaking telepathically to his entourage, while watching the five warriors deftly preparing the horse-drawn carriage to serve them.
" Shen Guoshi Hua is an ancient God clan, and the human city must show respect to them, after all if they don't facilitate us, then we can fly freely over the skies of their city." Yu Jieru explained.
" Please sir" said the commander respectfully.
" Thank you commander," said Qing Ruo cupped her hands respectfully, then entered the horse carriage.
After Qing Ruo and his entourage entered their respective carriages, the commander then ordered his soldiers who were train drivers, bringing Qing Ruo and his entourage to move towards the North gate of the city.
In the horse-drawn carriage. Qing Ruo and his entourage used the opportunity to recuperate, by absorbing the immortal soul crystal, without having the time to look around the city.
Throughout the day, the carriage continued to move across the Blue River city, until by nightfall, they arrived at the North gate.
" Gentlemen, we've arrived" said the soldier who became the coachman reminding Qing Ruo.
" Alright," Qing Ruo said as she exited her carriage, followed by Hu Shan and his entourage.
" Soldier, thank you," Qing Ruo said respectfully, while giving a storage ring containing fifteen golden apples.
" Sir, this..." Staring at Qing Ruo in panic and so frightened.
" Receive it, and the part on your entourage, "said Qing Ruo with her warm face, reassuring the soldier.
" Thank you, sir..." Cupped his hands respectfully.
" Okay, we're leaving" said Qing Ruo, then out of the north gate, who was accompanied by the soldiers' respectful gazes.
