Daoist Master of Qing Xuan Chapter 455 – I am Slightly Greater than The Stars in The Sky
He looked at his ‘mother’ with his soulful eyes. She seemed touched when she was met with Shen Lian’s star-like gaze.
Shen Lian’s gaze filtered into the depths of her bier like starlight. Perhaps it was due to their mother-and-son bond, there was no barrier between the both of them. There seemed to be something unexplainable within her conscious.
The light in Shen Lian’s eyes dimmed, and there appeared to be a gentle stream flowing into her gaze.
The female soldiers were attacking from both sides. Han Ying drew out a narrow and thin sword. She pierced into a female soldier’s throat at a skillful angle.
Unfortunately, her opponents were not merely a single female soldier, but a troop of well-trained female soldiers.
The female soldiers seemed to be under a spell and were fearless. They charged with their long swords.
Han Ying felt herself weakening. The hand she used to hold the sword was trembling slightly. As she charged at a female soldier, she missed her mark by an inch.
Another female soldier attacked from the side. As she brandished her sword, she was ready to shave off half of her opponent’s brain. She drew back her sword and was trying to pierce with her backhand. That was when she saw something she could never forget.
The lady that had an average physical capability caught a sharp arrow aimed at her and made her way out of a torrent of flying arrows.
She traveled along a crooked track and aimed at the female soldier’s wrist.
The female soldier’s wrist turned and pierced her comrade with her long sword.
There was a strange scene on the battlefield. A weak young lady who was carrying her baby was killing her way through the battlefield with a sharp arrow. She moved along crooked tracks and used strange moves. What was shocking was how each and every move was calculated to bring down at least one or two female soldiers.
With the help of the young lady, Han Ying was not under as much pressure. She only had to deal with the remaining female soldiers who were not within the young lady’s reach.

Intentional or not, the young lady shifted the battlefield towards the direction of the city gate. Due to the presence of their comrades, the archers on top of the gate did not rain arrows on them. A troop of female soldiers lined up and they were getting down from the wall.
They feared her as she had single-handedly killed over twenty female soldiers.
At last, the young lady held Han Ying’s hand. There was a layer of green light shrouding her, and together, they walked through the city gate.
Before she managed to inquire further, the young lady collapsed on her. A young voice spoke, “Hurry up and leave.”
Han Ying did not have time to make out the source of the voice. Along with the mother and son, she leaped into the Hucheng River. Only then did the rain of arrows came, but the trios were far down the Hucheng River by then.
The mother and son were dragged out onto the shore. Shen Lian’s mother was exhausted and had no strength left.
Han Ying saw the Eldest Young Lady carrying Shen Lian, who was completely drenched. She thought about how the water did not wash him away earlier, but the young child probably did not survive.
The moment she opened up the carrier, the baby crawled up and sat nakedly at the side. He was drenched and his eyes were dull. He spoke, “Thank you for the hard work.”
Han Ying was a dark warrior trained personally by the Master of the city and had strong heart and mind. Even then, she was shocked.
She spoke, “Is that you who is speaking?”
Shen Lian wrinkled his tiny face and tried to smile as bright as possible. He looked adorable, and he replied, “If it is not me, who else could it be?”
Han Ying unsheathed her sword, “What kind of monster are you?”
Shen Lian stared at her calmly. He pointed at the sky with his gentle fingers and spoke, “You can think of me as the stars in the sky that had fallen in the human realm. I mean no harm. Moreover, I am her child too.”

Shen Lian pointed at his ‘mother’ at the side.
When Han Ying was met with Shen Lian’s gaze, she realized that she could not muster any murderous thoughts towards him. What a gaze it was, to think that it was even more calming than the starlight in the sky.
She seemed to think of something and replied in excitement, “You are the stars in the sky?”
Shen Lian replied, “The spirits of powerful beings who had died on earth would turn into stars in the sky. I am slightly greater than the spirits of the First Men who had turned into stars in the sky.”
Of course, he was not blowing his own trumpet. After the Bier Discourse of Dao, his essence had entered ‘the state of Tian Xian’. In fact, he even stood a chance to become ‘Taiyi Tian Xian’, which was a being as great as the Mahasattva Bodhisattva.
Although, a state of being remained a state of being. It did not represent his combat power. To be at the peak of this world, Shen Lian needed to strengthen his understanding of this world.
Han Ying queried gingerly, “Will you be able to help us overcome the rebellion? After all, you are of the Master of the city’s bloodline now.”
Shen Lian replied, “Naturally, I would have the ability to do so. But I cannot do that yet.”
Han Ying asked, “Why? Are you not greater than the stars? You only need to use a little power to help us.”
Shen Lian pointed at the river. At the same time, a fish jumped out of the water and started spitting bubbles. He spoke calmly, “Do you think it is better to fish for someone or to teach someone how to fish?”
Han Ying pondered upon it for awhile, she asked at last, “You feel like eating fish?”
Shen Lian rolled his eyes. He was used to teaching disciples who were cultivators and was familiar to this form of teaching style. After all, the disciples who were cultivating did not lack wisdom. Even though Han Ying was better than the normal people, but she was incomparable to the cultivators who absorbed the essence of the heaven and earth and peered into the secrets of the sun and the moon.
Shen Lian spoke, “I am saying that I will teach you how to obtain power.”
Han Ying was taken by surprise, “Is that not troublesome? Can you do it or not? If you can’t, just let it be.”
After talking to Shen Lian – perhaps due to his unique charms, she found it difficult to hate him. She became at ease and had let down her guard.
She even wondered if this baby who was slightly greater than the stars were exaggerating as to his capabilities.
Fortunately, she was not ignorant. After seeing how he could speak and strange occurrences with the Eldest Young Lady, Chen Qing earlier that were probably related to him, she did not doubt Shen Lian’s allegedly powerful abilities.
Shen Lian spoke, “Fine then, you should bring my mother and I to somewhere dry and quiet. She exhausted herself. If this continues, there will be trouble that follows.”
Han Ying replied, “Seems like you are not that capable after all. However, the Eldest Young Lady’s health is a real concern.”
After he was born, Shen Lian planned to observe the world quietly before deciding on the next course of action. However, his plans did not manage to keep up with the changes. Since he had performed the Spirit Rapping Technique on his ‘mother’, he no longer bothered with concealing his identity anymore. This would serve to foster trust between them.
Despite his extremely fragile physical body, there did not seem to be any beings with supernatural powers around the area. His power was more than enough for the purpose of self-defense.
Moreover, he noticed that Han Ying had gone through special training. She was extraordinary and was able to obtain enormous explosive force through a certain method, which was why he wanted to teach her something. This would bring convenience to him as well. However, one indeed could not carve on rotten wood – she was not enlightened at all!
