Against The Gods
Chapter 213 – Qingyue Under The Moon


The wind was blowing hard on a dark night. The moonlight looked gloomy and the stars were rare. This is the prime time to quietly sneak around. Ah no, secretly crawl the night.


Tomorrow is the last day of the second round of the group stage. Yun Che, who won ten out of ten matches, had secured the top rank. Yun Che did not even think of it as something special, yet Qin Wushang was irresistibly full of excitement and his laughing mouth had not closed since afternoon until night. Of course, Cang Yue was also very happy, and when the beauty was very happy, it was naturally easier to take action.


Maybe, he'll fall for her tonight.


As he thought here, Yun Che immediately started to laugh pervertedly. Just as she jumped out of bed and was about to head to Cang Yue's room, the door of her room suddenly knocked, and Xia Yuanba's voice sounded from outside: “Sister-in-law, have you slept?”


The time is not too late, but it is already very quiet outside. In order not to disturb him, Qin Wushang and Xia Yuanba would not visit him at night, unless there were some urgent matters.


Yun Che approached to open the door: “Yuanba, what is it?”


“Oh, Brother came and wanted me to give this to you.” Xia Yuanba took out a small spatial ring, and gave it to Yun Che.


“Your sister? Qingyue came early? “Yun Che took the ring, and said in a surprised tone.


“Mhm.” Xia Yuanba nodded: “Sister said that you don't actually need these items anymore, but they are also useless to bring to her and want me to give this to you.”


Something that Qingyue my wife would give me? What's gonna happen?


Yun Che raised the ring and opened his inner vision .. In the vast spatial ring, there were only three things.


Profound Core's. His aura was thick and rich; it was clearly the Earth Profound Core! A fist-sized crystal piece that looked like a purple-colored ice crystal .. It was truly shocking, it was the Purple Veined Heavenly Crystal! And inside the transparent jade bottle, there was an eccentric grass with a bent stem, seven sharp and long leaves, as well as a seven-colored brilliance that flowed all over his body …


The Seven Profound Gem Grass!


The inside of Yun Che's heart trembled.


Seven Profound Gem Grass, Purple Veined Heavenly Crystal, Earth Profound Core .. These were definitely the three things he had mentioned to Xia Qingyue back then, which can be used to cure his Profound Veins.


Yun Che raised his head upwards, and asked immediately, “How long has it been since Qingyue left?”


“Ehm, he just left a while ago. Sister-in-law, you want .. “


Before Xia Yuanba finished speaking, Yun Che had rushed out like a gust of wind and instantly vanished before Xia Yuanba's eyes.


Xia Yuanba stood in front of the room door, scratched his head with an innocent face, and muttered in a small voice, “Should I tell Sister-in-law when Brother-in-law comes.”.


After exiting the courtyard, Yun Che paused for a moment, and felt the remnants of an ice-cold aura with his incomparable senses. Following the direction that the ice-cold aura had engendered, Yun Che galloped over, and hurriedly chased after it. Not long after, under the pitch-black curtains of the night, a graceful figure dressed in snow-colored clothes appeared in his vision. He slowed his pace, and quickly shouted, “Qingyue!”


The voice coming from behind made Xia Qingyue stop her legs. He quietly turned around, and his eyes met with Yun Che who had been chasing here. With regards to Yun Che's pursuit, he didn't seem too surprised. His charming eyes did not waver, and his voice was soft and calm: “What is this Mr Yun looking for from Qingyue?”


Shape “Master Yun” makes the corner of Yun Che's mouth somewhat crampy. She opened her mouth and asked: “Qingyue my wife, I want to ask a question ... the marriage certificate I gave you that day ... is there still?”


Xia Qingyue raised her snow-white hand and lightly stroked her ring. A flat, undamaged marriage certificate that is meticulously protected in a colorless crystal is brought out by it. With a movement of his hand, the marriage certificate flew towards Yun Che and landed in his hand .. And this piece of paper, it turned out that the marriage certificate between him and Qingyue was flawless and undamaged!


A kind of wordless moving feeling was created in Yun Che's heart. The existence of this marriage certificate, might not be able to prove that Xia Qingyue was actually holding some feelings towards her, but it turned out that after she left, she was protecting her last dignity with all her might.


At the very least, when her husband was in a dangerous situation, she as a wife did not take the opportunity to leave him, but had actually been undergoing the most sacred duty of a wife's duty.


The existence of this marriage certificate, also tells that they have always been husband and wife, including now.


“At that time, you didn't have the ability to protect this marriage certificate, so you handed it to me. Now, I believe you already have the power to protect it, so it should be returned to you. “Xia Qingyue said in a light voice.


Xia Qingyue: “..”


“I said at the time: ‘If you still want to continue being my wife, protect her! If you want full freedom, then destroy it …. “As he spoke here, Yun Che burst into laughter:” Actually, when I left that day, Yun Che said, I always thought that your choice was to destroy the Marriage Certificate because it didn't matter if it was for your father's promise or to pay the debt of gratitude to Uncle Xiao Ying, it was not for your father's promise, the person you should marry is Xiao Ying's son. However, you already know that I am by no means the son of Xiao Ying, and only ‘bastards that’ picked up in their mouths. You can completely destroy the marriage certificate and also our names as husband and wife and then enter Frozen Cloud Asgard. Why did you choose to instead, protect this marriage license? “


Xia Qingyue's beautiful eyes stared straight at Yun Che's body and not even the slightest bit of intention to avoid something. The expression in his gaze was completely calm. After a year and a half in Frozen Cloud Asgard, Yun Che clearly felt that Xia Qingyue's entire disposition had changed to such an extent that it was as if the heavens and earth were upside down. In the few days they lived together after marriage, his gaze indifferent, cold in it. But now, the cold gaze in his eyes was completely replaced by a nonchalant attitude and was just like calm water, without the slightest ripple. The aura of his energy had become cold within the bones.


In addition to Frozen Cloud Arts, the Profound Art of Frozen Cloud Asgard also included Frozen Heart Arts. The latter can make one calm the heart, and empty the mind. To the extreme, one can achieve a state of complete lack of desire and view in an unfocused manner all life and death, victory and defeat, ambition, as well as good and evil in the world …


But can a human being without passion and pursuit still be considered “human”?


“Qingyue can not answer this question.”


“Why can't you answer?”


Xia Qingyue said slowly, “Because of what Qingyue thought back then, it is now forgotten. Perhaps, it is because of our unfinished destiny as husband and wife. “


As she spoke the words “Destiny as husband and wife”, a few words that should carry this feeling of sentiment, were spoken nonchalantly, and without the slightest hint of emotion floated. And this kind of indifference, made Yun Che feel uneasy. Xia Qingyue in the past was like an ice lotus located on top of a snow mountain. Even though at that time he was covered, he still had a constant intention to investigate and tease and a desire to subdue and pluck it. If not for the unexpected events that occurred, if given enough time, he was confident that he would have succeeded if it was under the same roof and noon.


But Xia Qingyue now, gave him a feeling comparable to the bright moon hanging above the blue sky. It remains perfect as usual, but it is already very far from him, to the point that it is impossible to reach.


Ahhh !! This place called Frozen Cloud Asgard is truly dangerous !!


At the thought of how Chu Yuechan who had been living together with him for five months was still leaving firmly, along with the changes in Xia Qingyue … Yun Che's heart was instantly boiled with the urge to destroy Frozen Cloud Asgard.


Taking so much unparalleled beauty, yet turning it into an otherworldly being untainted by the desires of the world, they will be angry in their hearts!


Yun Che's chest rose and came back down. After calming his state of mind, he said in a calm tone: “Thank you for finding the Seven Seven Profound Gem Grass, Earth Profound Core and Purple Veined Heavenly Crystal. I knew that even if Frozen Cloud Asgard were to find all three within a year and a half it would not be that easy. After all, you're just a freshman coming in. “


“No need to thank,” Xia Qingyue's voice is light yet graceful: “Compared to your desire to open all my Profound Entrance, this cannot be considered much.”


“I opened the Profound Entrance, only expending a few drops of sweat. But you found all this for me, it's not as simple as taking a few drops of sweat out. However, I really shouldn't say thank you, because we are husband and wife. “Yun Che slightly smiled.


Xia Qingyue: “..


“Can I ask three questions?”


“Please ask.” Xia Qingyue did not refuse.


It was late into the night. Although there were only a few small stars in the sky, the full moon was extremely bright and generously poured out the bright moonlight. But because it shone on Xia Qingyue's body, this perfect and beautiful moonlight, could only be an unusual background. A kind of indescribable and suffocating beauty, Xia Qingyue was under the moonlight as if a goddess had descended from the sky. Seeing this beautiful figure to the point of almost illusion, to say that Yun Che's heartbeat did not increase was certainly impossible. He slowly took a breath and asked: “In Frozen Cloud Asgard, do you live well?”


“Very good. Asgard Mistress, Master, Senior Teacher, Junior Master, as well as all Junior and Senior all treated me very well. “Xia Qingyue replied very succinctly.


“Mn, then good.” Yun Che nodded: “Second question. I wanted to know this answer a long time ago. But at that time, you didn't tell me. I wonder, When we get married, exactly which realm is your strength? “


Yun Che at that time was absolutely certain, that Xia Qingyue's great strength was definitely not the tenth level Elementary Profound Realm shown on the surface. However, his strength at the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm was known throughout the city, and no one had ever questioned him. Even the senior generation, who possessed strength far beyond the Spirit Profound Realm considered him only at the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm. It was as if his true strength was hidden by some kind of special method. As for the reason for hiding it, Yun Che understood that very well. In a small place like Floating Cloud City, a 16-year-old at the peak of the Elementary Profound Realm was already the number one genius recognized by many. If the power he displayed came from the Nascent Profound Realm, or even the peak of the Nascent Profound Realm, it would definitely incite an unexpected uproar.


This time Xia Qingyue did not refuse, and directly replied: “When I was twelve, I met Master. At thirteen, I broke through the Elementary Profound Realm and stepped into the Nascent Profound Realm. Fourteen, I broke through the Nascent Profound and entered the True Profound. After I married you at the age of sixteen, I was at the peak of the True Profound Realm, just like you are today. “


Yun Che: “... !!!”
