Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 316 - 304: Wait for My Good News

Participating in this spring hunt, Qin Qing’s sole purpose was to rescue his father.

But now it was different, there was another goal, which was the Fruit of Life.

Gathering the Fruit of Life offered great hope to cure his sister Xiaoshuang’s Fire Disease entirely, and Qin Qing naturally wouldn’t give up on this hope!

"Actually... Qin Qing, you shouldn’t feel hopeless just because your cultivation and strength are slightly lower than the others right now."

Qin De looked at Qin Qing and continued, "As long as you break into the second round, that is, into Heifeng Valley, your advantages will begin to show!"

"Oh?" Qin De’s words left Qin Qing somewhat puzzled.

"Because once you enter Heifeng Valley, there will be an invisible force that exerts pressure on life."

At this point, Qin De paused, seeming to hold back something...

Then he changed the subject, saying, "All right. If you safely reach the safe point in Heifeng Valley, someone there will explain it to you. Even... my father, the emperor, might personally arrive."

"The specifics of what’s inside Heifeng Valley, you’ll know then!"

Qin Qing was somewhat curious, but he didn’t ask any further questions.

Just as Qin De had said, once he actually got to Heifeng Valley, he would naturally know.

However, Qin Qing knew one thing.

That was, once inside Heifeng Valley, he would have an even greater advantage.

And now, in the eyes of Qin De and others, his strength did not compare to Lu Yu’an’s...

Yet, Qin De and Qin Sheng insisted on ensuring that he got into Heifeng Valley, even ready to confront the Lu Clan for it, which meant that even with his current strength far inferior to Lu Yu’an’s, as long as he was in Heifeng Valley, he would have the capital to stand against Lu Yu’an.

But in fact, the real situation unknown to everyone but Qin Qing himself was:

Even if he faced Lu Yu’an right now, Qin Qing was absolutely confident he could defeat, even slay him.

"Qi Chong, Luo Qingshan, if Qin Qing encounters danger, you must help him!" Qin De again admonished Luo Qingshan and Qi Chong.

Qi Chong and Luo Qingshan once again promised to do so.

Qin Qing, Qi Chong, and Luo Qingshan were about to enter the Tianjue Forest.

But just then, someone else arrived.

It was Miss Hongxue.

Other than Liu Hongxue, there was also Master Chen.

"Elder Qin!"

Liu Hongxue and Master Chen arrived atop a majestic gold-crowned flying eagle.

Before the eagle had landed, Liu Hongxue had already leapt down from midair, landing about a zhang away from Qin Qing.

"Miss Hongxue!"

Qin Qing looked at Liu Hongxue with confusion; he didn’t know why she had come here at this time.

"Take the item inside this. Perhaps you’ll find use for it in the upcoming spring hunt!"

Liu Hongxue handed Qin Qing a Spirit Ring.

Qin Qing received the Spirit Ring and immersed his Divine Sense into it, only to discover that inside the ring were thousands of Formation Flags.

Formation Flags are the Spiritual Treasures used to set up a Spiritual Array.

Generally speaking, Formation Flags are not cheap.

Even a First Rank Formation Flag is worth around ten taels of gold, which is much more expensive than the inner core of a First Rank Ferocious Beast.

Most of the Formation Flags given to Qin Qing by Liu Hongxue were Second Rank and Third Rank, and there was even a portion of Fourth Rank.

One could imagine that together, the value of all the Formation Flags within this Spirit Ring must amount to an astonishing figure.

"Hoo!"

Qin Qing exhaled softly.

Ever since he became an elder of the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, Qin Qing hadn’t brought much profit to it.

Instead, it was always Liu Hongxue who was helping him.

This time, at this critical moment, Liu Hongxue had even sent so many array flags.

In fact, with these array flags, the upcoming Spring Hunting Event would indeed be like a fish in water for Qin Qing.

As a Third Rank Spiritual Pattern Master, with an array flag in hand, his combat ability was even more terrifying.

Especially when facing a large number of enemies, using array flags to quickly set up a Spiritual Array could result in devastating power.

"Miss Hongxue is thoughtful,"

Qin Qing said this from the bottom of his heart.

This time, adding to the previous occasion when Liu Hongxue treated Xiaoshuang, allowing her to cling to life, all these combined were enough for Qin Qing to wholeheartedly trust Liu Hongxue.

"I, Qin Qing, will always remember Miss Hongxue’s kindness in my heart. In the future, whenever Miss Hongxue needs me, I will do my best!"

Qin Qing said to Liu Hongxue with utmost seriousness.

A trace of a smile appeared on Liu Hongxue’s face.

It made her, who was already extremely beautiful, even more breathtaking.

So to speak, "A single smile can bewitch all that behold it," was probably about the likes of her.

Liu Hongxue knew that was enough with Qin Qing’s words. She understood him well, with his personality, he would never easily make a promise.

But if... once he made a promise, he would surely fulfill it even at the cost of his life.

"Qin Qing!" Liu Hongxue’s beautiful eyes fixed on Qin Qing, her face momentarily serious as she spoke, "I won’t hide it from you, when I took the initiative to befriend you, indeed, it was because I wanted to place a bet on you. I was optimistic about your potential, hence I hoped to get closer to you, hoping that you could become a support for me in the future."

"But... after getting to know you, many things about you have moved me, allowing me to meet a man who’s truly humane and righteous. Thus, I consider you, Liu Hongxue’s friend."

"I, Liu Hongxue, do not have many friends in this life, I might even say that before you, there was not a single one! But now—"

"You are one!"

Warmth spread through Qin Qing’s heart.

Liu Hongxue was earnest in her expression, her gaze sincere, looking at Qin Qing with eyes as clear as the waters of Saint Lake Mountain...

"Alright! Miss Hongxue, I, Qin Qing, acknowledge our friendship!" Qin Qing smiled broadly.

For some people, the friends they mention are nothing more than fair-weather friends.

But for Qin Qing, a friend, a promise, was a commitment for life!

"Alright, time is of the essence, you should go in now!" Liu Hongxue smiled and gestured for Qin Qing to enter Tianjue Forest.

Qin De also came over and politely smiled at Liu Hongxue.

"Qin Qing, you should go in now. After all, the first day is not just about reaching Heifeng Valley, but also the Qi-Blood value assessment,"

Hope shone in Qin De’s eyes. He too wished for this team to stand out in this Spring Hunting Event, to go all the way to the end, and perhaps even win the Fruit of Life.

Although Qin De was very aware of the great difficulty.

Because his team held no advantage in strength at all.

If Lu Yu’an were still in his team, this Spring Hunting Event would have been almost a sure win...

But now... it was all up to fate!

"Alright!"

Qin Qing nodded and glanced at Qin De: "Your Highness, you gave up on Lu Yu’an for my sake, just for that, I won’t let you down! Wait for my good news..."
