Chapter 2397

AST 2397 – Zhongyuan City Lord’s Child, Su Chun



Though it had been a long time since they had last seen each other, it didn’t affect their relationship . Qing Shui was naturally happy to meet her again . Although they weren’t blood-related, Qing Shui had long thought of her as his own child .

After their meal, they understood the situation . Luan Luan established a branch for the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace there, but it couldn’t be considered as invincible . While Luan Luan’s abilities were great, the same couldn’t be said for her subordinates .

Luan Luan had decent strength, and Qing Shui already noticed this without the need to probe her . At least, she had reached a level that wasn’t inferior to Shen Huang and Beihuang Fan . Moreover, she was a beast tamer and also the most powerful kind at that .

Qing Shui wasn’t surprised by Luan Luan’s abilities and thought it was normal . Even Qing Shui didn’t know what sort of demonic beasts Luan Luan possessed now, and the extent of power they had .

Luan Luan led Qing Shui and his company towards the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace .

It was located at the southeastern side of Zhongyuan City, along a busy street and taking up roughly fifty thousand square meters of space . This was the branch outlet of the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace in Zhongyuan City and was considered small . However, to Qing Shui’s knowledge, it would be difficult for the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace to shift here .

Qing Shui grew curious . “Little girl, what’s your plan, establishing the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace here?”

Luan Luan sighed, “I did it for fun initially, but it’s impossible to stop now . I made a bet with someone, and I would lose if the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace doesn’t survive in Zhongyuan City for three years . ”

Qing Shui was even more intrigued now . “How did that happen?”

“There’s a disciple from the City Lord Manor who wants to marry me . I’m not his match even if I make a move against him, but he wasn’t too strong by much . He didn’t do anything overboard as of now and has a good reputation in Zhongyuan City . Due to this, he would find some trouble with me from time to time, and without realizing it, we grew familiar with each other this way . ”

Qing Shui observed the expression on Luan Luan’s face and realized just how much she had grown . Qing Shui wouldn’t pry about her personal life and only smiled . He said, “Oh, what’s this? My little girl fell for him . ”

A rare look of embarrassment took over Luan Luan’s expression as she shook her head . “No, I just think he’s decent and strong . He doesn’t have a bad reputation nor is he already married . He’s also the one who declared to all Zhongyuan City that he wouldn’t wed before me . ”

“He seems rational . He didn’t insist on you not marrying at all . Let me meet him when the opportunity arises, and I’ll check him for you . What do you think?” Qing Shui smiled .

Qing Shui was still Luan Luan’s father at the end of the day, and as the saying goes, nobody understands a child better than the father . Qing Shui could guess Luan Luan’s thoughts; she must have liked the man but didn’t want to take the step this easily . This was like a test for both sides .

“Alright, I’ll have someone inform him and have him come see you . ” Luan Luan smiled .

Qing Shui froze before breaking out in a smile . “I see your words have weight to it . Tell me, at what point are you two at? Sigh . . . My little girl is all grown up now . ”



Luan Luan flushed red as she clung onto Qing Shui’s arm . “We’re nowhere . We’re just friends! Daddy, you must help me decide . I’ll listen to you . ”

“Alright, you don’t have to worry about that . ” Qing Shui smiled gleefully .

Qing Shui’s children were all grown up now, especially Luan Luan . Yuchang was married and might even be a mother now . Luan Luan’s time was here too and with her attributes, it was truly difficult to find a suitable companion .


Luan Luan’s talent was too great, and no one around her age would be able to compare to her . Moreover, Luan Luan’s beauty was in no way inferior to those from the Portraits of Beauty; plus, she came from a strong background like the Qing Clan to boot .

Entering the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace, the interior was decorated in a luxurious fashion . It was tidy and clean, without even a speck of dust . There were women of all ages and appearances present .

Anyone who crossed Luan Luan’s path would politely address her as Palace Lord .

While it wasn’t grandly decorated, it didn’t lack much . There was a fragrance lingering in the air from a huge garden afar .

“Luan Luan, is there any Divine Palace or Demon Gate in Zhongyuan City?” Qing Shui just recalled the question he hadn’t asked .

“No . The power play here is complicated, but I’ve never heard of the Demon Gate nor about the Divine Palace here . There is one of each at the Forsaken Heaven Region’s city though,” Luan Luan answered without hesitation .



The information saved Qing Shui much effort in finding out about the Demon Gate and the Divine Palace . Hence, he decided to resolve Luan Luan’s issue here . If she really wanted to wed into the Zhongyuan City Lord’s family, then he would have to check out what kind of people they were .

While the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace was a distance away from the City Lord Manor, the guy Luan Luan mentioned shouldn’t have been far away; they met after merely six hours .

The man was young, but he was probably not much younger than Qing Shui . In fact, they might have been the same age . Qing Shui looked young too, but the charm and grace he carried was far more mature than his actual age .

But this fellow was a handsome man too, standing at around Qing Shui’s height . His eyes were clear, and he looked like a clean man . The cleanliness was a sort of mannerism; Qing Shui felt that the man was like him . There was familiarity between them as though he was looking at himself .

“Su Chun, this is my father,” Luan Luan introduced .

The man named Su Chun froze but soon recovered as he bowed in haste to Qing Shui . “How do you do? You look really young, Uncle . ”

Qing Shui smiled . “Hello to you too . Luan Luan told me a lot about you . ”

Qing Shui, Luan Luan, and Su Chun sat down at the pavilion in their backyard .

Su Chun’s abilities were on par with Luan Luan, perhaps slightly higher . However, it would be hard to tell who was stronger if they had to go all out, considering Luan Luan was a Beast Tamer .

“I’ve heard that Mr . Su had been forcing my daughter . ” Qing Shui smiled .

“Uncle, do call me Su Chun or even Little Su . How could I ever force Luan Luan?” Su Chun answered frantically .

“You don’t have to be cautious, just speak as you wish . ” Qing Shui’s cold gaze was fixated on Su Chun; his imposing manner suppressed the latter as Su Chun broke out in cold sweat .

Su Chun was shocked . He had thought that Luan Luan’s father would be a common man . Of course, he would still pay his utmost and most sincere respect, but he wouldn’t be as nervous as the typical man meeting his father-in-law .

Now, he realized he had misjudged Qing Shui . By using just his imposing manner, Qing Shui was able to suppress him to the point of being unable to breathe . In the Forsaken Heaven Region, Su Chun thought that maybe not even his own father was stronger than this man .

“Uncle, I wish to take Luan Luan as my wife . I hope you will agree . ” Su Chun calmed down quickly . He knew that he had to solve the issue now, even if there was a possibility that he had no hope .

“I don’t know what right you have in liking my daughter . Why don’t you tell me?” Qing Shui retracted a bit of his mannerisms, but he still didn’t smile . He could naturally tell that this fellow was good at scheming .

A little scheming wasn’t a big deal . Overall, Qing Shui was satisfied with the man, with the latter’s pros outweighing his cons . However, he still thought that it was necessary to probe further .
