《Heavenly Will》Chapter 16 - The Lunar Silk Coat
Advertisement
Ignoring everyone’s stunned expression, Qing Yun looked at the young girl who was staring blankly at the necklace in his hand, and let out a chuckle, “Why? You don’t like it? If you don’t then I’l just...”
Seeing Qing Yun action, the onlookers shook their head. Qing Su was one of the two most beautiful girls in Tianlong City. There were many young masters who tried to woo her with many extravagant presents but none was fortunate enough to gain this young lady’s favor. Although the previous presents paled in comparison to Qing Yun’s necklace, everyone knew that Qing Su was not someone who fawned over material presents. Although this handsome youth took out such a heavenly item he will probably end up like the others.
Of course they couldn’t even finish this thought before being cut off as if they just had their necks cut off. On everyone was a hilariously stunned face.
Qing Su who had been stunned, responded quickly to Qing Yun words. Her two hands almost instinctively reached out and snatched the necklace in Qing Yun’s hand. After getting the necklace, Qing Su realized what she had done, perhaps she had acted a bit too impatient…
A light red blush appeared on her delicate face but Qing Su wasn’t like other people and after a slight period of embarrassment, she graciously recovered. Raising her head and giving a coy smile, she said: “Thank you Big Brother Yun.”
“Mn, it’s good if you like it!” Qing Yun nodded, “Here, let me help you put it on!” He took the necklace from Qing Su’s hands without waiting for her reply and moved to her back.
Although her face was slightly flushed, Qing Su didn’t reject Qing Yun. She knew that Qing Yun was doing this to serve as deterrence for people like Xiao Zhi. Thinking about this, Qing Su’s mouth curved into a gleeful smile. At this point she had even forgotten about Qing Yun’s interspatial ring and didn’t bother asking about the necklace. She knew that their relationship won’t end up as simple brother and sister.
Witnessing this scene, all the onlookers felt baffled. This shock was even greater than the sudden appearance of an interspatial ring and the mysterious necklace. One of the two goddesses of Tianlong City has finally been conquered by someone. All of them felt different emotions, some were regretful, some were angry, some felt a sudden surge of killing intent, of course there were people in the crowd who felt great admiration for Qing Yun and gave him the thumbs up.
The sudden smile on Qing Su’s face made the knees of many youths in the crowd go limp. Her smile was akin to the first ray of sunshine after a ruthless winter. Even some old people couldn’t help but feel their hearts warm up witnessing her smile.

Although everyone felt different emotions, no one thought that Qing Su was won over by the necklace. Since she took the necklace from Qing Yun hands, her amber eyes never leaved Qing Yun’s face. Every one could see the infatuation in her eyes.
Qing Yun helped Qing Su put on the necklace. Seeing her jade white, slender neck up close, even Qing Yun had a sudden urge to kiss it, fortunately he resisted.
“Tsk tsk, Little Su is indeed outstanding, even such a necklace would be overshadoued by her beauty.” Seeing the necklace that complimented Qing Su’s jade white slender neck, Qing Yun couldn’t help but let out a compliment.
“Hehe, Big Brother Yun knows how to speak, I wonder how many girls will fall pray to you in the future?!” Qing Su let out a cheeky laugh.
Qing Yun let out an awkward laugh and didn’t deny it. His face suddenly lit up as if he remembered something and turned to the green faced Xiao Zhi. At this moment his face was was contorted in a very ugly expression.
“Why? You’re still here?” Qing Yun smilled coldly.
The onlookers were startled. It seems that even they had forgotten about this young master of Xiao Clan. They looked at him with astonishment. How did this even happened? Just some wise old people in the crowd smiled and nodded to Qing Yun. This was indeed Qing Yun’s aim from the beginning.
Even more people began to feel some reverence towards this mysterious youth. In just several minutes he turned the situation around and didn’t just slapped Xiao Zhi’s face, he slapped the entire Xiao Clan’s face. Being one of the hegemons of the Tianlong City, Xiao Clan was a huge existence that no one dared to offend, but at this moment, somehow even this Xiao Clan seemed too small in front of this youth. Everyone tried to guess just what kind of grand existence was behind this handsome youth.
Xiao Zhi’s body convulsed involuntary as his blood red eyes were staring at Qing Yun. He was the second young master of Xiao Clan, since young he was pampered by everyone, there was nothing he desired and couldn’t put his hand on. In Tianlong City he was a grand figure that no one dared to offend.
“Brat.. you.. you dare..” Xiao Zhi’s stuttering voice was already horse. Seeing his blood red eyes, Qing Yun shook his head in disdain. How was this guy different from a wild beast, even some low level magical beast had more intelligence than him.
Qing Yun eyes narrowed as a cold glint flashed through them. No one felt anything but Xiao Zhi’s body froze. His eyes were wide as he stared at Qing Yun in horror. Although his mouth was moving slightly no sound came out.
This scene left everyone baffled. What was going on? A moment ago Xiao Zhi seemed about to jump at Qing Yun and bite him to death. But now, his face was white as a sheet, his eye contained a deep horror while staring at Qing Yun.

Killing intent! Qing Yun let out his killing intent! Although he was reincarnated, his soul was still stained by the blood of millions of people. Such a killing intent was something that not even the most bloodthirsty of criminals could cultivate. Of course his killing intent was aimed just at Xiao Zhi so no one else could feel it.
Although, a killing intent was just a kind of invisible pressure with no offensive nature, those with a week mind wouldn’t even be able to breath under it.
Under Qing Yun’s cold gaze, Xiao Zhi felt like a mountain range was weighing on him, he couldn’t resist the pressure and fell on his butt.
“Hee,” Seeing Xiao Zhi’s pathetic appearance, Qing Yun laughed mockingly and didn’t bothered with him anymore as he waved his hand and turned towards Qing Su and Su Fen.
At that moment, no one noticed the several Qi needles that shot from Qing Yun hand towards Xiao Zhi’s body.
Qing Yun smiled towards Qing Su, “Little Su, that necklace It’s called Frost Blue Necklace, it’s made from a Frost Blue Lotus, it can calm your heart and raise your cultivation speed by several folds. It also has a poison repealing effect so it’s very useful.” His tone was as bland as it could be as if the necklace didn’t amount much in his eyes.
“I had enough strolling for today, let’s go home, I want to continue my cultivation.” Qing Yun put his hands behind his head and turned to leave under numerous stunned gazes.
Qing Su and Su Fen laughed helplessly and followed behind him.
Back at the Su Clan, Qing Yin and Su Yijun were already waiting for them. Qing Yin wore a worried expression on her face while Su Yijun gave Qing Yun a perplexed look. One has to say that word realy travels fast, it seems they already heard about the incident. However it seemed that they didn’t have any intention of probing further.
The five of them had lunch together. Su Xiang was still out of the Clan and wouldn’t come back for several days. During this time, Qing Yun couldn’t help but feel awkward under Qing Yin and Su Yijun gazes that were altering between the Frost Blue Necklace and the silver ring on his finger. Qing Yun laughed helplessly, if they won’t ask, he would let them make their own assumption.
“Mother, Aunt Yijun, I want to continue my cultivation so I’ll excuse myself.”
No one said anything to Qing Yun words as the two of them nodded. They could understand Qing Yun’s feelings.
Su Yijun already prepared another room for Qing Yun. Inside the room Qing Yun was seated cross-legged on the bed. His closed eyes suddenly opened as he waved his hand and several Qi needles appeared above it.
“Ah, how are others supposed to live!” Qing Yun sighed helplessly as he looked at the Qi needles. “Back then I had to go through so much trouble to condense just one needle, ah, the feeling of Qi flowing inside my body is indead different.”
Qing Yun shook his head. The needles were just a medical technique he learned in his previous life. However, back then he couldn’t cultivate the Qi inside his body so he had to use several methods to condense those needles.
Qing Yun smiled and thrown the thought at the back of his head. A glint flashed through his eyes as he raised to his feet. With but a thought from him the silver ring on his finger let out a silver glow that enveloped Qing Yun’s body. Soon, the silver glow took the form of a silver coat that flowed down Qing Yun shoulders and reached his ankles.
There were several ancient looking symbols that drifted about on the coat. It was a peculiar sight as the symbols seemed almost alive. The silver glow emanated from the coat seemed as if it came from the moon itself.
“Hee,” Qing Yun smiled as his thoughts flowed. The silver coat suddenly change it’s color to black and transformed into a black hooded cloak. With another thought from Qing Yun it regained it’s original silver form.
“The Lunar Silk Coat! I never thought it would remain bound to me even after reincarnation!” Qing Yun clicked his tongue in amazement.
The Lunar Silk Coat was one of his few mysterious encounters in his previous life, together with the Gate of Knowledge and Xiao Mei. One could say that without those encounters Qing Yun wouldn’t have been able to have his revenge and stop that grand formation from taking every life in the five continents.
Qing Yun laughed bitterly. Even he didn’t know which was more mysterious. The Gate of Knowledge, the Lunar Silk Coat or Xiao Mei who gave him the Lunar Silk Coat.
This Lunar Silk Coat was quite peculiar. It could change it's color and form according to Qing Yun's will. It also had the same function as an interspatial ring. Of course the space inside it was not something that an ordinary interspatial ring could compare to. Even Qing Yun didn't know how big it really was. What fascinated Qing Yun even more was the coat's ability to conceal the wearer presence.
Qing Yun smiled gleefully. This coat saved him many times in the past.
