[Book 1-11] Stellar Transformation

Book 3 Chapter 9

B3C9: One man, alone (2)

Qin Yu is sitting stock-still at the stone table in the courtyard house.

He has been sitting like this for a whole day and night. During this time he has smiled and sorrowed alternately. However, at the moment, Qin Yu suddenly gives a faint smile which, like a breeze, blows away all his grief and sorrow. He slowly stands up and looks up at the sky.

"He's already dead. It's pointless to keep grieving. Grandpa Lian, you must be watching from the sky, I definitely won't disappoint you." Qin Yu thinks to himself calmly. Then he smiles as he hears a 'gu-gu' rumbling. "I forgot I haven't eaten for a day and night. My stomach is pretty hungry."

As he finishes saying, he immediately tells servants to bring him some food.

......

Qin De is staring at the military map on the wall inside his room.

"Your Highness, Xiao Yu just told servants to bring him some food. Judging by Third Prince's tone and expression, he should have almost recovered." Xu Yuan comes to Qin De's side and says smilingly.

"Oh?" Qin De relaxes his deeply furrowed brows. A smiling expression appears on his face. "Yu'er is tough-minded. He won't immerse himself in grief like a worthless person." Hearing this news, Qin De also feels like a rock has been taken off his mind.

"All right, now we don't have to be worried about Yu'er. Xu Yuan, you see, here, if we send 30,000 Fierce Tiger troops to here ..." Qin De immediately starts to discuss with Xu Yuan.

......

As Qin Yu eats his sumptuous precious meal, his mind thinks about other matters.

"I'll definitely take part in father's great undertaking. In the past he turned me down for the reason that I wasn't a Xiantian expert. Now I've become a Xiantian expert and, moreover, I'm even the unprecedented Xiantian external expert. If father knows about this ..." Qin Yu's eyes flash.

He has been trying hard for so many years only to wait for his father's approval.

Being a Xiantian external expert should be enough for Qin Yu to astonish his father and be praised by him, should it not?

"Right, when I just returned to the courtyard house that day, it seemed while executing the 1st Trans-Heaven diagram's 36 movements, when I reached an extremely high speed the holy energy streams unexpectedly radiated a silvery light. That silvery light was even acutely painful." Qin Yu remembers that scene.

Even though Qin Yu noticed this occurrence at that time, he has been too immersed in his sorrow over Lian Yan's death to consider it carefully.

"Moreover, it seemed that during practice, the faster my speed was, the more vigorous the holy energy I absorbed was. Well, let's try again and see!" Qin Yu immediately makes a decision. He quickly finishes his meal and casts the chopsticks aside. Then his body starts to flash around in the courtyard house like a gust of clear wind.

Speed!

As Qin Yu executes those movements faster and faster, the 36 holy energy streams intertwine with each other and become a suit of armor engulfing Qin Yu. As his speed increases, those energy streams become more and more concentrated and materialized.

Eventually, some points of a silvery light are produced. There are very few of them and they are scattered in the energy streams.

"It's this speed!"

Qin Yu's eyes brighten. He stops increasing his speed at once. He feels clearly that, when the holy energy which contains those silvery points of light fuses with his body, it causes his flesh and even his cells to transform hurriedly. His cells start to be torn apart, but they are then restored once again.
