AST 2334 - Divine Rain Sect's Sect Leader

When Qing Shui came out from the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal the next day, the sun was already up . Although the accommodations here were simple, each house had their own courtyards . Qing Shui practiced the Taichi Fist while facing the sun . His Taichi Fist was no longer the earliest version he had been practicing . There were hints of the Back Connecting Fist, Yu Emperor Fist, Berserk Dragon Fist, yet also seemed as if there was nothing at all .

Qing Shui had no idea what realm he was considered to have reached . It was no longer the same stage as when the emphasis was on the intent and not the form .

During the practice, he seemed as if he wasn't exerting any strength at all, occasionally being soft and gentle, occasionally being flamboyant, occasionally being fierce and violent, occasionally being dignified . . .

The rising sun in the east cast down endless golden light, dyeing the entire land in the color of gold . This place was a rainforest . Although there would be a drizzle most of the time, the sun would still be out in most situations .

Rainbows weren't a rare sight here and could be seen once every few days . Moreover, there would be many of them hanging up in the sky in different forms . They were beautiful and dreamy . Combining the bamboo houses, the rainbows, and the light drizzle, the scenery of this region filled the heart of the observers with a poetic feeling .

It was not only a place with terrific terrain and great calming aura, but overflowing Spiritual Qi could also be felt all over, a sign that there was a strong Spiritual Vein here . This place was definitely considered as one of the best areas in the Lower Three Regions .

When one of the ladies saw Qing Shui downstairs, she smiled and said, "Miraculous Physician, please enter!"

Qing Shui smiled and headed over .

This time around, the woman stood in the middle of the room . When she saw Qing Shui, her eyes lit up, appearing more lively than they were before . Previously, they were dull and dark, but they were completely different now . It was as if pearls that were covered in dust had been cleaned and were emitting their original radiance .

"Mmm, you seem to be in quite a good condition . We can start on the scar removal . " 

"I'll have to trouble you," said the woman . She didn’t show any particular expression as she knew that in her current state, there was nothing that she was suited for . Even her smile would appear very ugly .

"A bright pearl that's covered in dust . It's no trouble at all . " Qing Shui signaled for her to lie down .

It wasn't the soft and comfortable bed from before; it was made of bamboo instead . Qing Shui covered up her eyes . Her face required multiple treatments, but for now, he was only going to focus on the spot below her eyes . He used the gold needles to numb her nerves before taking out a small knife . It was a small knife that was specially made from pure silver .

This knife itself had a self-purifying effect, thus saving the need for Qing Shui to do so . When it was about time, Qing Shui circulated his Qi and Force of Rebirth . He then started to slice off those scars . Qing Shui actually didn't know about the exact process of scar removals, but his powerful abilities allowed him to do this .

If this situation had occurred to him in his previous life, people would have died from surprise .  

Before the treatment, Qing Shui had given the woman the Aptitude Pill, Growth Pill, and other supplements . He was being very serious while he was slicing off the scars, doing every step so meticulously .  

Medicinal powder from the Flower of Life!

Qing Shui applied this medicinal powder he had made and started applying acupuncture . He even used the Life and Death Needles .

To be safe, Qing Shui applied the acupuncture for over two hours . Then, he put on bandages over her face, revealing only her mouth . The bandages could be taken off after a week . And in ten days, they would be able to treat the portion of her face above the eyes before eventually tackling the area around her eyes .

The woman looked at the bowl beside her that had so many of the removed scars and felt very relaxed . It was as if she had a lot of burdens removed . Regardless if her face would get better or not, she felt that she would undergo a change . The poison was gone, and there was no threat to her life . Thus, she thought that it was fine for her to remain ugly . With Qing Shui attempting to remove her scars, no matter how things turned out, it would probably be better than how it had been before .

After the treatment, Qing Shui made some food . Her condition required food therapy, for her to take medicinal cuisine . The woman felt a little bad as she saw Qing Shui busy in the kitchen .

"This is medicinal cuisine . It'll be of great help for your recovery," Qing Shui said as he prepared the food .

There was no lack of medicinal herbs, and Qing Shui had even greater confidence in his culinary skills than his cultivation . Qing Shui felt that he was definitely considered top-notch in the field of medicine and culinary . Even if he were to head to the Upper Three Regions, he didn't believe that there would be people who would be able to surpass him in these two areas .

Although he felt that he was a little arrogant,  more of it was contributed to his confidence .

Very soon, fragrant medicinal scent drifted out, tempting every soul around the area . An exquisite set of medicinal cuisine was brought out . It was just a small bowl, but its appearance and its delicious smell alone would cause one's appetite to perk up .

The woman didn't expect Qing Shui to have such great culinary skills . Qing Shui placed this bowl of medicinal cuisine on the table and poured out a cup of plum blossom wine . The fragrance from the wine didn't clash with that of the medicinal cuisine . Instead, they seemed to have integrated together perfectly .

The woman took a sip of the wine before trying the medicinal cuisine . After a moment of silence, she looked at Qing Shui in disbelief and then quickly finished both up .

She ate very quickly with her head lowered, not showing any elegance at all . However, her figure was still extremely alluring .

"This is the best food I've ever eaten and the best wine I've ever drunk . " The woman wore an expression as if it hadn't been enough .

"Thank you for your compliment, I'll give you some after you've recovered . I believe that when you eat it then, it'll taste even more delicious . " Qing Shui also felt very happy although he had no idea why .

Qing Shui had this feeling that the woman had an enticing aura, even when her face was covered in scars . By right, her face should make others detest her or feel horrified, but why was there an enticing feeling?

Suddenly, the view before Qing Shui changed . The woman was still herself, but there was a blurry shadow of eight fox tails behind her .

Sky Fox?

Qing Shui closed his eyes for a while and when he opened them again, she returned to her original appearance . However, Qing Shui knew that this wasn't an illusion . He had the Heavenly Vision Technique and what he had seen earlier was through his Heavenly Vision Technique .

Qing Shui thought of that God Striking Whip and then this woman . He seemed to have understood something .

"The Divine Rain Sect doesn't really have a sect leader who is training in seclusion, right?" Qing Shui asked casually .

"How did you know that?" The woman looked at Qing Shui in surprise and didn't deny that .

"I guessed it . You should be the Divine Rain Sect's sect leader . " Qing Shui smiled and said .

"I'm only doing this to give the other members of the Divine Rain Sect hope," the woman sighed .

Qing Shui now understood why the Divine Rain Sect hadn't been so forceful previously and why they would agree to some of the conditions which might have seemed overboard . Back then, the Divine Rain Sect had quite a number of problems on their own as well .

In the end, Qing Shui didn't say that she was from the Sky Fox race .

Qing Shui felt that the position of Divine Rain Sect's sect leader had been owned by the members of the Sky Fox race since ancient times . The Divine Rain Sect had been passed down from ancient times, and that God Striking Whip must have been the weapon belonging to one of the sect leaders . It wasn’t known how the whip had been damaged, but Qing Shui had the feeling that the owner of this God Striking Whip should have fallen . After all, even the God Striking Whip had been severely damaged .

It could have been that since then, the God Striking Whip had been treated like a spoilt item and tossed in the Divine Rain Sect's storage .

Qing Shui naturally had no idea what the reason had been, nor did he wish to pursue the root of this problem .

Maybe due to the severity of its damage, the owner recognition process couldn't be conducted . And since the treasure couldn't be put through owner recognition, it was naturally treated like trash . However, they couldn't bear to throw it away .

Right now, even though the God Striking Whip was considered damaged, it was definitely still a miraculous treasure . Moreover, after the owner recognition process, 20% of the damage would be recovered, so its prowess would definitely become stronger . It might not be comparable to the God Striking Whip back in the ancient times, but at Qing Shui's current level, it was definitely considered a divine artifact .
