ng Lang, please do a good deed, quickly exert strength and smack your palm at my ‘BaiHui’ acupoint!”

At this moment light suddenly shine down on her face, her entire body is shivering, she stretch out her hand to take away the white veil covering her face, her fingers scratching her cheek, at once her face is full of blood scar, she shouted: “Meng Lang, you….quickly kill me with a single fist.” Child Elder sneered: “You sealed his acupoints, but now you ask him to help you, hey hey, you reap what you sown, your retribution came really quick!” Li QiuShui prop herself and tried to stand up, she want to unseal Xu Zhu’s acupoints, but her entire body is limp and painful, she can’t even move her little finger.

Xu Zhu look at Li QiuShui, afterwards he look at Child Elder, evidently Child Elder’s injuries are also extremely serious, she lean against the stone steps and groan, Xu Zhu vision is getting clearer and clearer, it seems the ice storehouse is gradually getting brighter, he incline his head and look towards the source of light, there is a huge ball of fire at the 1st level of the ice storehouse, he shouted: “Ayo! Someone is coming!”

Child Elder was startled, she pondered: “Someone is coming, in the end i still fell under this ****’s hands.” she forcibly draw a breath, she wanted to stand up, but no matter what she can’t stand at all, her legs soften, with a ‘Gudong’ sound she fell down. Child Elder exert strength in her pair of hands, she slowly crawl towards Li QiuShui, before her soldiers arrive to save her she want to strangle her to death.

Suddenly she heard faint dripping sound of water, its seems water is dripping down from the stone steps. Li QiuShui and Xu Zhu also heard the sound of dripping water, they turn their head at the same time and look, indeed water is dripping down the stone steps. The three of them are baffled: “Where did this water come from?”

The ice storehouse is getting brighter and brighter, the gurgling sound of water, the dripping of water unexpectedly transform into a stream of water, it flow down the stone steps. The ball of fire at the 1st level is roaring, but no one came in. At once Li QiuShui realize the truth, she cannot help but say: “The fire burn….the cotton….in the cloth-sack.” As it turns out, the area near the entrance is piled full of cloth-sack, the cloth-sack contains cotton to prevent external heat from entering, thus the ice chunks did not melt. Unexpectedly when Li QiuShui was hit by Child Elder’s fist, the torch dislodge from her hand and flew out, it landed on the cloth-sack and burn the cotton, the ice chunks melt and turn into water stream and flow downwards.

The flame flourished, more water flow downwards, the gurgling sound of water is getting louder. After a while the water accumulated in the 3rd level is around 1 chi high. Water flow down endlessly from the stone steps, more and more water accumulate, slowly the water reach their waists.

Li QiuShui sigh and said: “Martial sister, you and me, both sides suffered a defeat, nobody can live, you….you unseal Meng Lang’s acupoints, let him….go out.” The three of them are well aware of the situation, the water in the ice storehouse will slowly rise up, they will definitely drown.

Child Elder sneered: “I carry out my own stuff, why do i even need your advice? Originally i wanted to unseal his acupoints, but since you try to be the good person, then i don’t want to unseal his acupoints anymore. Little monk, you die because of her words, are you aware of it?” she turn her body and slowly crawl up the stone steps. If she climb a few more steps she would be able to personally witness Li QiuShui drown. Although she will still die eventually, but as long as she witness Li QiuShui die, her revenge can be considered complete.

Li QiuShui saw her slowly climb up, the ice cold water already reach her chest, the internal energy in her body surge around, its incomparably painful, she hope the ice water can rise up faster, its better to drown then to suffer the agony of thousand worms biting her, its 100 times better to drown then to endure thousand needles drilling into her as her martial arts disperse.

Suddenly Child Elder cry out, she tumbled and roll down, with a ‘Putong’ sound, water splash in all direction, she drop straight into the pool of water. As it turns out, her injuries are too serious, her limbs lack strength, she climb 7-8 steps up the stone steps, an ice cube the size of a fist flow down along with the water, by lucky coincidence it heavily hit her right knee, Child Elder can’t stabilize her body and tumbled. As she fell down, she so happen to land on Xu Zhu’s body, she bounce off and landed on Li QiuShui’s right side. As the water accumulate, unexpectedly the three of them squeeze and bundled together.

Child Elder’s stature is much smaller than Xu Zhu and Li QiuShui, the water reach Li QiuShui’s chest but it already reach Child Elder’s neck. Child Elder also suffered bitter pain as her martial arts disperse, she pondered: “No matter what, this **** have to die before me.” she wanted to injure her, however in between them is Xu Zhu, moreover she can’t even move her arm for a few inch, she saw Xu Zhu’s shoulder is touching Li QiuShui’s shoulder, she suddenly had an idea, she said: “Little monk, you must not channel your internal energy to resist, if not you will bring about your own demise.” she did not wait for his reply, she channel her internal energy and send it towards Xu Zhu. Child Elder is fully aware that this act is accelerating her death, the more she exhaust her internal energy the faster she will die, but if she does not do this, she will surely be the first one to die once the water rise up.

Li QiuShui suffered severe shock in her body, she detect Child Elder’s internal energy is attacking her, immediately she channel her internal energy and counter-attack.

Xu Zhu is in-between them, initially he felt a hot stream of energy from Child Elder’s arm, immediately after he felt another stream of hot energy from Li QiuShui’s shoulder, in a split second, the two stream of energy collided within his body, the collision is fierce and violent. Child Elder and Li QiuShui internal energy are comparable with each other, after sustaining heavy injuries, there is still not much difference between them, its difficult to determine who is stronger or weaker. Their internal energy clash with each other, deadlocked in stalemate, the internal energy stop within Xu Zhu’s body, nobody can attack each other. However, Xu Zhu suffered the most. Luckily Wu YaZi imparted 70 years of internal energy to him, among the three fellow martial brother and sisters, Wu YaZi possess the highest internal energy, although Xu Zhu is distress under the attack from two sides but he did not die.

Child Elder notice water is gradually rising, it move from her neck to her chin, and again from her chin to her lower lip. She urge her internal energy and channel it endlessly, she want to quickly kill off her love rival, unfortunately Li QiuShui’s internal energy also flow endlessly, evidently she is not likely to exhaust it any time soon. But water kept on gushing, Child Elder felt something cold in her mouth, a burst of cold water entered her mouth. She was startled, her body involuntarily rise up, she can’t stabilize herself, unexpectedly she floated on the water. She is missing one leg, obviously its much easier for her to float compared to ordinary people. She escaped by the skin of her teeth, she lie down flat on the water surface, the back of her head submerge in the water, she only expose her mouth and nose to breathe, at once she calm down and pondered: “The water rise and i will move higher, unexpectedly i broke a leg and gain unfair advantage in the water.” she keep on sending internal energy to her hand.

Xu Zhu groan loudly, he shouted: “Sigh, martial aunt, martial great aunt, even if both of you carry on fighting its still hard to determine the winner, but nephew will really be killed.” But Child Elder and Li QiuShui are too deep in the duel, the duel had turn into a contest of internal energy, the most dangerous aspect in the fight between two experts, whoever give up first will lose her life immediately. Moreover both of them are aware that regardless of the result of the contest, they will still die eventually, thus they kept fighting to see who will die first. Both of them are proud and arrogant, their hatred accumulated for over 10 years, who is willing to give up? In addition as they transmit their internal energy out, although they are getting weaker and weaker, but the pain and suffering they experience due to the scattering of energy is reduced.

After the time taken to eat a meal, water had rise up to Li QiuShui’s mouth, she can’t swim, she don’t dare to copy Child Elder and float on the water surface, at once she stop breathing, she utilize her [Turtle Breathing Skill] and compete with her enemy, water flow past her eyes, eyebrows, forehead, but she still transmit her deep and profound internal energy endlessly. ‘Gudu’, ‘Gudu’, ‘Gudu’, Xu Zhu drank three mouthful of iced water, he shout loudly: “Ayo, i…i cannot….*Gudu*…*Gudu*…i…..*Gudu*….” he is panic-stricken, suddenly his vision turn dark, he can’t see anything. He hastily shut his mouth, he breathe through his nose, as he inhale he felt the air in his chest is incomparably stuffy. As it turns out, the ice storehouse is sealed, there is no ventilation, the cotton burn for a long time, the fresh outside air cannot enter, the fire cannot burn smoothly and extinguish by itself. Xu Zhu and Child Elder had difficulties breathing, on the contrary Li QiuShui is still utilizing her [Turtle Breathing Skill] thus she did not detect anything.

Although the fire is extinguished, but iced water still flow down endlessly. Xu Zhu felt the iced water move past his lips, his philtrum, gradually it reach up to his nostrils, he pondered: “I am dieing, i am dieing!” however the internal energy of Child Elder and Li QiuShui still transmit endlessly from his left and right.

Xu Zhu felt the room is abnormally stuffy, his energy surge forward, it seems as if his five viscera and six bowels swap positions, the iced water is a hair breadth away from his nostrils, if it rise up a bit more he won’t be able to breathe anymore, moreover his acupoints are sealed, he can’t raise his neck. But its really strange, after a long time, unexpectedly the iced water did not rise up anymore, since the fire on the cotton extinguish, the ice chunks did not melt anymore. After a while, Xu Zhu felt stinging pain on his philtrum, immediately after the pain spread to his chin, and then to his neck. As it turns out, the ice storehouse is full of ice chunks, its extremely cold, when the iced water flow down they slowly turn back to ice again, unexpectedly the three of them are frozen in ice.

The ice condense and solidified, Child Elder and Li QiuShui are isolated from each other, their internal energy no long transmit into Xu Zhu, however as a result, more than half of their internal energy is sealed within Xu Zhu’s body, the energy clash and collide with each other, its getting more and more violent. Xu Zhu felt his skin is about to burst and crack, although he is stuck within solid ice but he cannot bear the boiling heat.

He don’t know how much time have pass, suddenly his body vibrated, unexpectedly the two stream of hot energy merge together with the energy originally within his body and became one, he did not need to guide it, the energy automatically rush to all his meridians and acupoints. As it turns out, Child Elder and Li QiuShui internal energy are locked in stalemate, there is no place to drain out, eventually it merge together with the internal energy of Wu YaZi. The internal energy of the three originated from the same sect, there is no difference in nature, its extremely easy to merge, when the three energy became one, the power is abundant and unstoppable, wherever the energy goes the sealed acupoints will immediately open up.

In an instant, Xu Zhu felt his body is free and comfortable, he shake his pair of hands lightly, there is a burst of ‘Kalala’ sound, the solid ice surrounding him immediately break up, he pondered: “I wonder what happen to martial aunt and martial great aunt, i have to save both of them and go out.” He stretch out his hands and grope around, he felt solid ice everywhere, both of them already encased within the ice. Xu Zhu is panic-stricken, there is no time to think, he grab both of them, one arm carrying one person, he carried both of them along with the ice and walk to the 1st level of the ice storehouse, he push open the two heavy wooden door, he felt a burst of clean fresh air, he only inhale once and felt indescribable joy. The moon is glowing brightly in the sky, the shadows of flowers can be seen on the ground, its very late at night.

He felt happy and thought: “Escaping the imperial palace in the dark is much easier.” he carried two blocks of ice and rush to the edge of the wall, he gathered his energy and jump up, unexpectedly his body kept rising up, he is 1 zhang higher than the top of the wall, however the rising force still did not end. Xu Zhu not expect the internal energy within his body to have such wonderful power, he is afraid he might rise up higher and higher, he shouted ‘Ah’.

Four imperial guard happen to patrol outside the palace’s walls, they heard someone shout and quickly rush forward to check, they saw two crystal blocks sandwich between a gray shadow, it jump over the wall and move away, they honestly don’t know what kind of monster it is. The four guards stare stupidly, the three monster flash and entered the forest outside the palace’s walls, the four guards yell out and chase, but where is the trace of the monsters? The four guards suspect it must be some supernatural being, they debate endlessly, some said its a mountain spirit, some claim its a flower demon.

*************

When Xu Zhu got out of the imperial palace he took large strides and rush quickly, the road is made of green flagstone, houses packed tightly together on either side of the road. He don’t dare to linger, he kept running west. After running for a while he arrive at the city wall, he gathered his energy and jump up the wall, he flip over the wall and ran away, the soldier guarding the top of the wall felt his vision blur, he did not spot anything.

Xu Zhu rush towards a desolate area 10 li away from the city, there are no house in the area, he finally stop and put down the two ice blocks, he pondered: “I have to remove the ice surrounding them as soon as possible.” he found a nearby brook and submerge the two ice blocks into the water. Under the moonlight, he saw Child Elder’s mouth and nose exposed outside the ice block, but her eyes are shut tightly, he don’t know if she is dead or alive. Ice fragments on the two ice blocks are wash away by the water, Xu Zhu held onto them and kept peeling, he remove the solid ice surrounding their bodies, afterwards he raise both of them out of the brook and touch their forehead, unexpectedly they are still quite warm, he felt really happy, he place both of them far apart, he is afraid that once they wake up they will start fighting again.

Half a day pass, the sky gradually turn bright, Xu Zhu sat down and rest. The sun rise from the east, the birds on the tree start chirping, Child Elder who is sitting under the northern tree gave a ‘Yi’ sound, Li QiuShui who is sitting under the southern tree gave an ‘Ah’ sound, unexpectedly both of them wake up at the same time.

Xu Zhu is extremely happy, he leap up and stand between them, he press his hands together and said: “Martial great aunt, martial aunt, the three of us narrowly escape and survive, you must not fight again!” Child Elder said: “No, how can i give up if that **** is not dead?” Li QiuShui said: “The hatred is deep as ocean, i won’t rest until she dies.” Xu Zhu wave both his hands randomly and said: “Absolutely not, absolutely not!”

Li QiuShui push off from the ground and throw herself towards Child Elder. Child Elder circulate both her hands, she concentrate her strength and wait for the opportunity to strike. Unexpectedly as Li QiuShui extended her waist to stand up, she immediately turn soft and collapsed. As for Child Elder, she can’t form a circle with her arms, she lean against the tree and pant heavily.

Xu Zhu saw both of them have no strength to fight, he is elated and said: “Good, both of you rest here, i will find something for you to eat.” he saw Child Elder and Li QiuShui sat down cross-legged, their palms and feet facing the sky, their posture identical, he knew these two martial sisters are channelling their internal energy, whoever can gather enough strength to launch the first strike and the opposing side would have no way to resist. Seeing such situation, Xu Zhu don’t dare to move away from them. He look at Child Elder and look at Li QiuShui, their face full of wrinkles, their appearance haggard and withered, he pondered: “Martial great aunt is already 96 years old, martial aunt is at least 80 years old. Both of them so old already, unexpectedly both of them are so short-sighted, such bad temper.”

He wring his clothes to squeeze out the water, suddenly there is a ‘Pa’ sound, an object fall on the ground, its the portrait given to him by Wu YaZi. The painting is drawn on tough silk fabric, its undamaged even after getting soaked. Xu Zhu spread the painting on a rock to let the sun dry it. The painting is somewhat fuzzy after getting soaked in water, he felt somewhat pity.

Li QiuShui heard the sound, she open her eyes slightly and saw the painting, she shout in a shrill voice: “Bring it here and let me see! Its a painting of me correct? Wonderful, i don’t believe martial brother would draw a portrait of that lowly *****.”

Child Elder shouted: “Don’t let her see! I want to kill her personally. If that **** get angered to death won’t she get off too lightly?”

Li QiuShui laugh out loud and said: “I already saw it, martial brother drew a portrait of me. You refuse to let me see the painting, evidently the person in the painting is not you. Martial brother is gifted in painting, how can he draw a midget like you who doesn’t resemble a human or ghost? He is not drawing Zhong Kui (vanquisher of ghosts and evil beings) to catch ghost, why would he even draw you?”

At that time, although Child Elder’s stature is small but her appearance is extremely beautiful, Wu YaZi was in love with her. Child Elder practice [Eternal Youth Never Aging Skill], she can preserve her appearance and never age, forever maintain her looks, at the age of 26 years old, she can use her divine skill to alter her undersize illness. At that time her martial sister Li QiuShui was 18 years old, she fell in love with Wu YaZi, she is jealous of Child Elder, thus at the critical juncture of Child Elder’s training, Li QiuShui shout loudly behind Child Elder, Child Elder was startled and fire-deviated, her internal energy diverted from the main path and its difficult for her to recover, she can never grow up, henceforth the two of them became mortal enemies. Currently Child Elder listen to Li QiuShui mention the greatest regret in her life, she cannot help but shout furiously: “Treacherous ****, i….i….i…..” with a ‘Wa’ sound she spurted a mouthful of fresh blood, she almost fainted.

Li QiuShui sneered and mock her: “Just admit defeat? If we really fight….” suddenly she cough repeatedly.

Xu Zhu knew both of them are weary and exhausted, they are about to collapse from exhaustion, he advise them: “Martial great aunt, martial aunt, its best if both of you rest for a while, don’t tax yourself anymore.” Child Elder said angrily: “Won’t do!”

At this moment, the sound of jingling bells suddenly came from south-west, the sound is from a camel-bell, its crisp and melodious. When Child Elder heard it her expression was happy, her spirit rose, she took out a short black-tube from her bosom and said: “Shoot this tube into the air.” Li QiuShui cough is getting more and more anxious. Xu Zhu don’t understand the reason, he lodge the small tube at his middle finger and shot it upwards, a sharp whistling sound emit from the tube. Currently Xu Zhu’s finger strength is extremely powerful and extraordinary, the small tube flew straight into the sky, it entered the clouds and can’t be seen anymore, however it made endless ‘Wu Wu’ sound. Xu Zhu is alarmed, he said inwardly: “Not good, martial great aunt’s small-tube is a signal. She is summoning her people over to deal with martial aunt.” he quickly rush towards Li QiuShui, he bend down and whispered: “Martial aunt, martial great aunt’s helpers are coming, i will carry you and run away.”

But Li QiuShui close her eyes, her head drooping, her coughing ceased, her body motionless. Xu Zhu had a huge shock, he stretch out his hand to check her breath, she stop breathing. Xu Zhu cry out in fear: “Martial aunt, martial aunt!” he shake her shoulder lightly, he want to wake her up, unexpectedly Li QiuShui collapsed immediately as he touch her, her body slanted and lie down on the ground, she was dead.

Child Elder laugh heartily and said: “Good, good, good! Little **** got frighten to death, haha, my revenge is complete, this treacherous **** finally died before me, haha, haha….” its difficult for her to breathe in her excited state, she spurted a huge mouthful of blood.

The ‘Wu Wu’ sound is high and low, the small black tube finally drop down from mid-air, Xu Zhu stretch out his hand and caught it, as his about to look at Child Elder he heard the urgent sound of hoof, the sound is mix with the jingling of bells, Xu Zhu turn his head and look at the source of the sound, he saw 10 camel speeding towards him. The riders of the camel are all wearing light-green cloak, they rush over from a distance, its just like a green cloud, he heard several female voice: “Honourable Master, subordinates arrive late, we are guilty and deserve a thousand death!”

The 10 camel draw close, Xu Zhu saw all the riders are female, the front of their cloaks are embroidered with a black vulture, its appearance fierce. When the female riders saw Child Elder all of them leap off the camel and quickly move close, they prostrate in front of Child Elder. Leading this group of female is an old woman, she is around 50-60 years old, as for the rest some are old and some are young, some are around 40 years old while some are 17-18 years old, all of them extremely respectful towards Child Elder, they lie prostrate on the ground and don’t dare to look at her.

Child Elder snorted and said angrily: “All of you think i am dead, correct? Nobody care about this old woman. Nobody is there to control you, everyone must be very free and leisurely, undisciplined and out of control.” while speaking the old woman in front of her kowtow repeatedly and said: “I don’t dare.” Child Elder said: “What don’t dare? If you really think about granny, how come there is….there is so few people here?” the old woman said: “Reporting to Honourable Master, ever since Honourable Master left the palace, all your subordinates are extremely anxious….” Child Elder said angrily: “Farting, farting!” the old woman said: “Yes, yes!” Child Elder is even more furious and shouted: “Since you know its fart, then how dare….how dare you fart in front of me?” the old woman don’t dare to speak, she kowtow repeatedly.

Child Elder said: “All of you are anxious, then what happen? How come you didn’t rush down the mountain to search for me immediately?” the old woman said: “Yes! Subordinate’s Nine Heaven Nine Divisions immediately went down the mountain, we separate to search for Honourable Master. Subordinate’s Clear Heaven Division head east to respectfully welcome Honourable Master, Sun Heaven Division head south-east, Scarlet Heaven Division head south, Vermillion Heaven Division head south-west, Perfect Heaven Division head west, Serene Heaven Division head north-west, Mysterious Heaven Division head north, Phoenix Heaven Division head north-east, Great Heaven Division guard the palace. Subordinate is incompetent, i arrive late, i deserve to die, i deserve to die!” when she finish speaking she kowtow repeatedly.

Child Elder said: “All your clothes are tattered and torn, these 3 months, you must have suffered quite a bit while travelling.” the old woman heard her words contain hints of praise, at once her face revealed a happy expression and said: “For the sake of Honourable Master we will spare no effort, even if we have to go through water and tread on fire we will do it willingly. This little bit of suffering, its subordinate’s duty.” Child Elder said: “I did not complete my training, i suddenly bump into that treacherous ****, she cut off one of my leg, i almost died, luckily my martial nephew Xu Zhu rescued me, the dangers and hardships within are complicated and not easy to express.”

The group of green-cloak female turn their bodies simultaneously, they kowtow to Xu Zhu and said: “The great kindness and virtue of Mister, its difficult to repay even if our bodies are torn and bones crushed.” Xu Zhu cannot help but feel bewildered seeing so many female kowtow in front of him, he quickly said: “I don’t deserve it, i don’t deserve it!” he also knelt down to return the courtesy. Child Elder shout loudly: “Xu Zhu, stand up! All of them are my slave servants, how can you forget your status?” Xu Zhu said a few more ‘i don’t deserve it’ and finally stood up.

Child Elder said to Xu Zhu: “That treacherous **** snatch the gem ring, go over and take it back.” Xu Zhu said: “Yes.” he walk towards Li QiuShui and remove the gem ring from her middle finger. Originally this gem ring was given to him by Wu YaZi, he did not feel disturbed when he remove it from Li QiuShui’s finger. Child Elder said: “You are the Sect Leader of Carefree Sect, the life-death talisman, [Plum Breaking Hands Of Heavenly Mountain], [Six Solar Palm Of Heavenly Mountain], i already impart all these martial arts to you, from now on you are the Master of Misty Peak Vulture Palace, Vulture Palace…..the slave servants of Nine Heaven Nine Divisions of Vulture Palace, their life and death are all under your control.” Xu Zhu had a huge shock, he quickly said: “Martial great aunt, martial great aunt, you absolutely cannot do this.” Child Elder said angrily: “What absolutely cannot do this? These slave servants from Nine Heaven Nine Divisions are incompetent, they didn’t welcome me as soon as possible, i suffered in the cloth-sack, unexpectedly i was humiliated by Wu LaoDa and those bastards, eventually i lost a leg and nearly died…..”

The female servants all trembled in fright, they kowtow and said: “We deserve to die, Honorable Master please show mercy!” Child Elder said to Xu Zhu: “The servants from Clear Heaven Division finally found me, their punishment can be reduce a little, as for the servants for the other eight divisions, break their hands or legs, you can do whatever you want to them.” the female servants kowtow and said: “Many thanks to Honourable Master.” Child Elder shout loudly: “How come you didn’t kowtow and give thanks to your new Master?” the female servants quickly kowtow and give thanks to Xu Zhu. Xu Zhu wave his hands randomly and said: “Forget it, forget it! How can i be your Master?”

Child Elder said: “Although my life is nearly over, but i witness the death of that treacherous ****, i also found a successor for my entire lifetime of martial arts, i can finally die contented, unexpectedly you refuse to accept my request?” Xu Zhu said: “This….i really cannot do it.” Child Elder laugh out loud, she smile and said: “The lady in your dreams, you want to see her? Do you agree to become the Master of Vulture Palace?” Xu Zhu heard her mention ‘the lady in your dreams’, his entire body is shaking, he cannot refuse, he blush and nod his head. Child Elder said happily: “Very good! Bring that portrait over here, let me tear it up personally. When i have no more worries, i will direct you to find the lady in your dreams.”

Xu Zhu fetch the portrait. Child Elder took the portrait, she look at it under the sunlight, suddenly she cry out in surprise, her expression was shock yet happy, she examine it carefully again, she burst into loud laughter and shouted: “Its not her, its not her! Haha, haha, haha!” while laughing, two stream of tears roll down her cheeks, her neck soften, her head lowered, she did not speak anymore.

Xu Zhu was startled, he stretch out his hands to support her, but her bones are like cotton, she curl up and shrink, unexpectedly she died.

The group of green-cloak females surrounded her, they weep loudly, they are extremely mournful. All these women are recued by Child Elder under extremely dangerous or distress circumstances, although Child Elder is very strict but they are very grateful towards her.

Xu Zhu recalled how he stayed closely beside Child Elder for the past 3 months, how she impart him numerous martial arts, although her temper is perverse but she treat him extremely well, now she died with a laugh, he is really sad, he lie prostrate on the ground and cried.

Suddenly he heard a soft and sorrowful voice behind him: “Hei hei, martial sister, in the end you still die before me, so who won?” The voice is from Li QiuShui, Xu Zhu had a huge shock, he pondered: “How come the dead person can revive?” he quickly leap up and turn around, Li QiuShui is sitting upright and leaning against a tree, she said: “Martial nephew, bring that portrait over and let me see, how come elder sister cry and laugh before dieing?”

Xu Zhu pry open Child Elder’s fingers lightly, he took the portrait and look at it, the portrait was soak wet and dried in the sun, the brush stroke is vague and fuzzy, however the beautiful woman in the painting still look like Wang YuYan, her eyes an
