Tong Yao had been extremely busy recently due to the request from Qin Wushuang.
Qin Wushuang had given her a list, on it were eighteen different materials. They were nine species of poisonous insects and nine different species of poisonous flowers.
Qin Wushuang requested that Tong Yao prepare these things in a week and deliver them to the Qin manor.
Tong Yao took a look at this list and saw that these dangerous insects and flowers were not difficult to find. With the Tong family's excellent network and methods, she wouldn't need a week to collect these materials.
However, Qin Wushuang's request was to collect these materials separately. And she must keep this matter confidential as it would be best not to involve the Tong family.
Tong Yao knew that Qin Wushuang would not speak without thinking. He must have his reasons since he had requested it done this way.
At that moment, she agreed and would do the work herself to collect these eighteen different poisonous materials for Qin Wushuang.
…
After Qin Wushuang had left the Redwood Royal City, he rushed the horse and caught up with Qin Xiu. When she saw her little brother had come, her emotions were stirred up, she had thrown aside all the fear and worry inside her beyond the topmost clouds.
"Sister, it’s alright now. Tell me, that demon who have bothered you all this time, is he the one that went to capture you?"
Qin Xiu nodded and sobbed and revealed a tear-stained beautiful face: "It was him, it was that demon. He hit big Brother Da Xi off the cliff."
"Sister, don't worry. The Heavens help the worthy. Big Brother Da Xi was lucky; he got caught by a pine tree growing out of cliff face and did not die. He will most likely recover in about ten or fifteen days."
"Big Brother Da Xi is not dead?" Qin Xiu brimmed with joy, and the depressed expression on her face suddenly went away.
"As your little brother, when have I ever lied to you?"
Beaming with happiness, Qin Xiu pointed that He Yufei who was tied on horseback: "Who is this?"
"Sister, this person was one of the demons and one of the guys in charge. He is He Yufei, the second son of the current Redwood King!"
"Redwood King?" Qin Xiu opened her eyes widely.
"That’s him. He does not deserve to be the ruler of the Territory. He dared to harm his own people."
"So we don’t know why had he caught so many girls?"
Qin Wushuang shook his head: "I also could not come to a conclusion after a lot of thought. But from my estimation, it should not be something good."
From his former world, Qin Wushuang had also heard about some evil mighty martial artists that practiced some so-called "Plucking the Yin and Yang" technique. That technique was incredibly shameful and hateful. Indeed, everyone hated that type of method.
"So how do you plan to take care of him?"
"Haha, he is a valuable commodity to be kept for holding. I heard that earlier; the Redwood King had already turned hostile towards me because I took the victor’s place from his third son, He Yuchong. And now, because of my sister, I disturbed his plans again. Both sides have become fire and water. With this human shield in hand, it could help me to save a lot of trouble."
The two siblings rode quickly on the way, and they soon returned to the Qin manor.
Of course, Qin Lianshan was euphoric when he saw that both of his children had returned safely.
…
At the same time when the imperial edict arrived at the Redwood Royal Territory, the Bai Yue Emperor announced to the entire country: "On July 18th, I will bestow the title of King to the Eastwood Qin as the new Royal family! With the Great Cang Mountains as the center, the Southcloud and the Green Tree State will be their territories. The main Royal family will compensate the land given away. The remaining rewards will be delivered by the representatives of the Royal family!"
July 18th, it was an ecliptic and lucky day. It was a day suitable for the crowning ceremony.
Another imperial edict arrived at Eastwood Town and ordered the Qin family to prepare the ceremony on July 18th. At that time, a representative from the leading Royal family would come to their homes with other powerhouses in the country to congratulate them.
To the Eastwood Qin, it was two simultaneous happy events at the same time. In that moment, they became the hot topic in the entire country.
Initially, Qin Lianshan was suspicious whether the Royal family could keep their promise about the rewards. He only felt relieved of his doubts when the imperial edict arrived.
Of course, Qin Wushuang knew his father’s mind as he smiled: "Father, facts speak louder than words, right?"
Qin Lianshan sighed: "If it was a few years ago, I could never have imagined this scene even in my dreams. Us Eastwood Qin have actually risen to become a Royal family! Wushuang, this is all because of your contributions!"
"Father, there are not many days left until July 18th. Everyone must get busy at this time. For this crowning ceremony, I guess that all the powerhouse aristocrats will come to congratulate us from all around the country. Although we do not want to deliberately show off, at least, we must prepare for a style that would match a Royals."
Qin Lianshan approved sincerely: "I’ve also planned it this way. Fortunately, we have enough helpers at the manor. I’ve already asked Sixi to call back one hundred strong men from the fields and wait for orders."
"Yes, I estimated that about two hundred table worth of guests will arrive at this time. In our manor, we’ve got two or three hundred servants and maids. Take about a hundred of the strong men and ask their spouses to come help, I think we will have enough supporting hands."
"Right, Father, are you satisfied with our feudal fiefdom?" Qin Wushuang asked with a smile.
Qin Lianshan complimented: "I am thrilled with it. The Emperor was good at understanding others. He knew that the Qin had lived here for generation and apparently, he had considered this situation."
Qin Wushuang laughed: "It’s not because our Emperor was understanding. This land, I had chosen it myself."
"You chose it?" Qin Lianshan was stunned.
"Yes, at the Martial Saint Mountain, the Great Martial Saint opened the map himself and gave me a pencil to draw a circle. Wherever I drew, that would be our feudal fiefdom."
As Qin Lianshan heard it, the more he became dumbfounded as his throat tightened: "The Martial Saint was being this generous? And if you had drawn a bigger circle, could it be…"
