Stellar Transformation-Chapter 571 - 16 episodes 32 - s Meeting

Zhou Xian carefully examined the mansion before him, admitting to himself that Piaoyun Mansion was indeed superior to his ’Yunxiang Mansion,’ be it in terms of size or layout.

"Could it be that in my uncle’s eyes, I still can’t compare to this Artifact Refining Master Qin Yu?" Zhou Xian felt a tinge of dissatisfaction. In Northern Pole Snow City, the residences for those participating in the matchmaking were arranged by people from the Imperial City.

Those of lower status could have their residences decided by some managers.

But for those of high status like Zhou Xian, Duanmu Yu, and Qin Yu, their residences were designated by the Northern Pole Holy Emperor Jiang Fan himself. Qin Yu’s residence was somewhat better than Zhou Xian’s, which also indicated that the Northern Pole Holy Emperor favored Qin Yu more.

"Lord Zhou Xian, he’s in the living room, please come this way." The beautiful Heavenly God Servant assigned to Qin Yu by the Northern Pole Holy Emperor said with a smile.

Zhou Xian then came to his senses and nodded slightly at the maid.

Accompanied by two Heavenly God Servants behind him, Zhou Xian followed the maid directly to Piaoyun Mansion’s special living room, and when they reached the door of the living room,

"Sorry, please have those two servants wait outside." A calm voice spoke.

Zhou Xian turned to look, and the speaker was Qiu Zhongfu, standing beside the door. Zhou Xian instructed, "You two, stay outside, do not come in." Saying that, he entered the living room directly.

There were only two people in the living room.

One was a puppet, and Zhou Xian instantly understood that the elder before him must be Uncle Fu, the legendary steward of Mishen Palace. As for the Artifact Refining Master Qin Yu...

Zhou Xian shifted his gaze and fixed it on the young man in a black robe standing in the center of the hall, his back to him.

"Brother Qin Yu? I am Zhou Xian from Thunder Punishment City!" Zhou Xian showed a friendly smile on his face.

The black-robed young man, who had been facing away from Zhou Xian, turned around, a meaningful smile playing on his lips as he looked at Zhou Xian, "Brother Zhou Xian, I’m pleased to meet you!"

Zhou Xian’s pupils suddenly constricted, his whole body shaking.

Zhou Xian had only heard about the great name of the Artifact Refining Master ’Qin Yu.’ He was not familiar at all with the appearance of this up-and-coming Artifact Refining Master, but when he saw him, he was shocked...

Initially, that ordinary cultivator from the Mortal World, that mortal who had a good relationship with Jiang Li, was also called Qin Yu.

The face, exactly the same as the ’Qin Yu’ before him!

There are many people in the Divine World, and it’s not strange for names to be exactly the same. But what about faces? Could it really be such a coincidence that not only their names but also their faces are the same?

"Could this Qin Yu be the same Qin Yu from the Mortal World?" Zhou Xian had this suspicion in his mind.

However, Zhou Xian couldn’t just ask directly, especially since his relationship with that Qin Yu from the Mortal World had been very bad. Zhou Xian could only choose to beat around the bush.

"Brother Zhou Xian comes to my place, why are you silent?" Qin Yu said with a smile, then gestured to the chairs beside him, "Brother Zhou Xian, let us sit down first, have some tea, and chat casually, what do you think?"

At that moment, Zhou Xian, whose mind was thinking about how to subtly inquire about Qin Yu’s real identity, suddenly came back to his senses, "Oh, yes, yes." At this moment, Zhou Xian had lost his usual poise.

Qin Yu didn’t say much, just smiled faintly and took a seat first.

Zhou Xian also sat down, now having calmed down, still with a friendly smile on his face looking at Qin Yu, "Brother Qin Yu, although I am in Northern Pole Snow City, I have still heard of your great fame, the new Artifact Refining Master, the new master of Mishen Palace, truly remarkable. I was thinking, why is Brother Qin Yu in East Pole Xuanjin Mountain? Wouldn’t it be nice if you were in Thunder Punishment City, so that I could often enjoy wine and a chat with Brother Qin Yu."

"I also feel regretful, but I’ve already grown accustomed to East Pole Xuanjin Mountain," Qin Yu said with a light smile.

Upon seeing Zhou Xian for the first time, Qin Yu couldn’t help but recall that scene from the past.

That arrogant figure.

In that shattered space, the pitiful mortals who perished in despair, that little boy who wanted to eat candied haw, Qin Yu could never forget that scene.

What he also couldn’t forget was Zhou Xian’s arrogant statement from back then—"Qin Yu, there is a Heavenly Way, and you, a mere mortal, how could you comprehend what the Heavenly Way is? Killing people? Even if I slaughtered everyone on this continent, the heavens wouldn’t punish me in the slightest. Ha ha... Qin Yu, remember this, I understand the heavens far better than you do!"

Though thinking about those things, Qin Yu’s face still carried a faint smile.

"Brother Zhou Xian, what brings you to my place this time?" Qin Yu asked, looking at Zhou Xian.

Zhou Xian’s face bloomed with a smile, "Ha ha, Brother Qin Yu, I am here merely to satisfy my curiosity to see what an Artifact Refining Master of legend looks like. Ah, Brother Qin Yu, to be honest, you remind me of an old acquaintance of mine, his name was also Qin Yu." At this moment, Zhou Xian’s eyes flickered with thunder and lightning.

"Old acquaintance?" Qin Yu raised his eyebrows.

Had Zhou Xian already become unable to restrain himself?

"Zhou Xian, you also remind me of an old acquaintance of mine; his name was also Zhou Xian." Qin Yu likewise gazed at Zhou Xian, meeting his gaze.

Zhou Xian’s expression changed.

At this moment, he had already confirmed that the Qin Yu before him was the one from the Mortal World from back then.

"Ha ha, what a coincidence, but I think my old acquaintance wouldn’t be able to catch up to Brother Qin Yu in cultivation, let alone reach the master level on the Artifact Refining Path." Zhou Xian said cheerfully.

Even though Zhou Xian had confirmed that this was the Qin Yu from the Mortal World,

He didn’t want to fall out with Qin Yu just yet. So he pretended not to recognize him.

"Ah, but that ’Zhou Xian’ old acquaintance of mine was quite powerful. He even told me that he understood the heavens better than I do." Qin Yu said with a smile.

Provocation.

Absolute provocation.

Zhou Xian’s smile briefly faltered, then returned to normal, "Oh? Is that so? Brother Qin Yu, you being an Upper Heavenly God and so astonishing on the Artifact Refining Path, there are indeed very few who understand the heavens better than you." Zhou Xian responded to Qin Yu’s provocation with a compliment.

"Ah." Zhou Xian suddenly stood up, then spoke helplessly to Qin Yu, "Brother Qin Yu, I’m really sorry, but I just remembered, I have urgent matters to attend to, so I must leave now. When you’re free, Brother Qin Yu, I’ll make another visit."

Qin Yu also stood up, "Brother Zhou Xian, take care, I won’t see you out."

Zhou Xian smiled, bowed politely, then turned and walked toward the main door. However, just when he reached the door of the living room, Zhou Xian’s figure suddenly froze, then he turned around to look at Qin Yu and asked with a smile, "I heard, Brother Qin Yu, that you came this time for my cousin?"

"Correct, Brother Zhou Xian should know my determination." Qin Yu’s gaze shot straight at Zhou Xian.

"My determination is no less than yours, Brother Qin Yu, let the best man win when the competition begins. Farewell." Zhou Xian smiled as he walked out of the hall, taking his two Heavenly God Servants and left.

Qin Yu watched as Zhou Xian and his two servants departed, the smile completely vanished from his face, leaving only cool composure.

"Master?" Uncle Fu looked at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed, "I had only met Zhou Xian once in the Mortal World before, thinking how arrogant he was, but now it seems, this Zhou Xian is not so easy to deal with."

...

Yunxiang Mansion.

"Get out."

In the hall, a voice as cold as ice resonated, causing several Heavenly God Servants to hurriedly leave in a panic. At this moment, only Zhou Xian was left in the hall.

Zhou Xian’s demeanor had completely shifted from the courteous one he had shown to Qin Yu. His face was contorted, and his eyes crazily flickered with thunder and lightning.

"Qin Yu, in less than twenty thousand years, who would have thought that you, a mere insect, could have reached where you are today," Zhou Xian said, his hands bracing against the table, veins bulging out like thick roots gripping the surface.

"I truly regret not having killed you directly back then!"

Zhou Xian snorted heavily from his nostrils.

"Bang!"

Under those increasingly forceful fingers, the table made of ancient divine wood instantly turned to dust.

Zhou Xian was full of regret. Initially, in his eyes, Qin Yu, who hadn’t even reached the Heavenly Immortal Realm, was nothing but an ant—far inferior even to the ants in the Divine World.

But Zhou Xian had never expected it.

In just less than twenty thousand years.

Twenty thousand years, for a master in the Divine World, was a very short period of time. During this brief duration, that seemingly insignificant figure from the Mortal World who had once been completely at his mercy had grown into a significant figure in the Divine World.

The East Pole Xuanjin Mountain Lanxuan Hall Master, the new Artifact Refining Master.

In terms of status alone, he was absolutely not inferior to him, a Prince of Thunder Punishment City.

Moreover, in terms of welcome, the Artifact Refining Master was definitely well-received by all major forces. No force would oppose an Artifact Refining Master.

"It’s been less than twenty thousand years!" Zhou Xian seethed with hatred.

In the blink of an eye, a minor figure from the Mortal World had become a revered Artifact Refining Master in the Divine World!

"This Qin Yu will definitely exhaust all his efforts to compete with me for my cousin. However, in the end, she must belong to me, and no one shall take her away," Zhou Xian thought, his eyes narrowing, the thunder in them shooting forth, tearing through the void.

"Divine King, I have waited a long time for this..."

To many, Jiang Li was the key to becoming a Divine King.

*******

Qin Yu had been living comfortably these days, having established friendly relationships with many people in the Northern Pole Snow City.

Under the light of Daylight, in the garden, Qin Yu reclined in a chair, enjoying the warmth of the daylight.

"The identity of an Artifact Refining Master is really useful. If I wasn’t an Artifact Refining Master, being a Lanxuan Hall Master at East Pole Xuanjin Mountain might be useful, but here in Northern Pole Snow City, who would care about you?"

Qin Yu picked up a delicate transparent glass from the table next to his chair and took a sip.

"But with the identity of an Artifact Refining Master, I don’t need to make the first move; people come to me wanting to forge connections. Power, indeed, is the source of everything," Qin Yu felt the importance of power growing in his heart.

Artifact Refining Master was also an aspect of power.

At that moment, a beautiful and charming Heavenly God Servant approached and respectfully said, "My Lord, Princess Jiang Yan seeks an audience outside."

"Princess Jiang Yan?" Qin Yu was taken aback.

"Quick, please invite her here directly," Qin Yu said immediately, not liking to receive real friends in the formal living room, which felt too restrictive.

"Yes, my Lord."

The beautiful Heavenly God Servant promptly went to convey the message. Qin Yu soon saw two familiar figures approaching; Jiang Yan was coming over with Grandma Yin Hua.

Qin Yu now had a much sharper vision.

He recognized at a glance that Grandma Yin Hua was an Upper Heavenly God. That was her level of power.

"It seems Jiang Yan has been diligently cultivating since returning to the Divine World, having reached the Lower Heavenly God Realm," Qin Yu thought to himself.

He then stood up, smiling, "Sister Yan’er, long time no see."

Jiang Yan was still as adorable as when in the Immortal Demon World. She glanced at Qin Yu and wrinkled her nose, pouting, "Big Brother Qin Yu has been in the Divine World for so long and hasn’t visited me even once. Really... "

"Haven’t I come now?" Qin Yu said with a smile.

Jiang Yan immediately laughed, "Haha, just teasing you. But really, Big Brother Qin Yu, you are amazing. I heard your great name and couldn’t believe that you were the same Qin Yu from the Immortal Demon World. I was only convinced when I saw you in person!"

Jiang Yan counted on her fingers, "The new owner of Mishen Palace, Artifact Refining Master, and just now, Grandma was telling me that you’ve also reached the Upper Heavenly God Realm. Uh... this is really a blow to me," Jiang Yan acted as though she was ’severely hit’.

Qin Yu gave a slight smile.

Every time he saw Li’er’s sister Jiang Yan, Qin Yu felt very cheerful. Jiang Yan was indeed a lovely girl.

"Lord Qin Yu." Grandma Yin Hua smiled and bowed slightly.

"Grandma, long time no see," Qin Yu also bowed, knowing after talking so long with Li’er that Grandma Yin Hua was the one who had cared for the Li sisters as they grew up, and she loved them very much.

"It’s not really been a long time, but, Lord Qin Yu, even seeing your progress with her own eyes, this old lady finds it hard to believe," Grandma Yin Hua exclaimed.

Even though Grandma Yin Hua was an Upper Heavenly God, in terms of status in Northern Pole Snow City, she was considered less than a ’Hall Master’.

And Qin Yu?

Not only was he Lanxuan Hall Master, but also the new Artifact Refining Master. In terms of status, he ranked much higher than Grandma Yin Hua.

She could not help but sigh at how much the world had changed from when Qin Yu was just a minor figure in the Immortal Demon World to now holding a higher status than her own.

"Master." Uncle Fu suddenly approached from a distance.

"Uncle Fu, what is it?" Qin Yu smiled as he looked at Uncle Fu, who was holding a long scroll of dark gold, "Just now, the Northern Pole Saint Emperor sent an invitation, also for the formal courtship invitation."

"They’ve sent the invitations already? Is the formal courtship beginning?" Jiang Yan said in surprise.

A glint flashed through Qin Yu’s eyes.

"Finally, it’s starting, isn’t it?" Qin Yu murmured to himself.

(The courtship is a climax, and Fang Qie needs to carefully design the plot. There will be only one Chapter today. I will make up with three Chapters tomorrow. Sorry... As of tomorrow, it will officially involve the courtship content.)
