[Book 1-11] Stellar Transformation

Book 4 Chapter 21

B4C21: A full moon night on the River Wu

Qin De's 2 hands, which are holding the letter, slightly tremble. In an instant, his facial expression changes several times.

"Father, how is Yu'er? What does this letter actually say?" Qin Zheng asks Qin De hurriedly, his face full of urgency. Qin Zheng has been having a bad feeling as well, especially after seeing Qin De's expression.

Qin De's facial muscles are slightly twitching. His eyes redden in a moment. Qin De takes a deep breath, trying to suppress the feelings surging inside him. His whole chest takes in fresh air like a pair of bellows. He must refrains himself.

"Yu'er."

Qin De, having become misty-eyed, passes the letter in his hands to Qin Zheng on one side.

"Yu'er, how am I going to have to treat you?" Qin De turns his face upwards, looking into the sky. His expression is totally unhappy. "I wronged you but you've helped me again and again. Last time, to save me you didn't hesitate to die together with the enemy. Now, you again ..."

He still remembers that sentence in the letter -- 'I can only guarantee that, in this battle, Xiang Yang will definitely die no matter what happens.'

Qin De knows his 3rd son very well -- Once he promises to do something, he will definitely accomplish it, only that ... in order to achieve his goal, he will disregard even his own life.

This is his son, Qin Yu!

He should take pride in having such a son, should he not? But at the moment Qin De's heart is in a lot of pain. He knows that his son left for the sake of the Qin clan and that, once this battle is won, the Qin clan will benefit greatly from the victory.

However ... Qin De after all is a father! The urge to be with his son caused by his fatherly feelings is not something that can be suppressed.

"Father, Xiao Yu ... why is he so silly? We can wait, waiting for 10 to 20 years. But ..." Qin Zheng has started to panic, but he can do nothing now. Chasing?

It will take even people like Fengyuzi a day's worth of time to reach Ba Chu County from here, but Qin Yu only needs 2 to 4 hours to arrive in that county. They simply will not be able to catch up with him because Qin Yu's speed is really too fast!

"Wait? 10 to 20 years is too long. Many things can happen during this period of time." Qin De totally understands what his 3rd son was thinking. But, the more he understands his son's intention, the more pain his heart is in.

"Xiao Yu, 3rd brother!" There is also a mournful expression on Qin Zheng's face now because he has understood everything as well.

"2nd brother, where's Xiao Yu? Why both of you are here?" Qin Feng has run up to them too.

Qin De suddenly looks at Qin Zheng, saying: "Zheng'er, this letter and these 3 secret books will be regarded as the Qin clan's most important treasures. You must protect them. Remember, from now on, you'll be in charge of every affair of the Qin clan. You'll represent the entire Qin clan! So, you mustn't act on impulse."

Qin De puts the 3 secret books in Qin Zheng's hands.

Qin Zheng cannot help getting startled. He looks at Qin De, saying doubtfully: "Father, what do you mean?"

"Before leaving this time Yu'er wrote that he would be able to kill Xiang Yang so I believe he'll succeed. Xiang Yang will definitely die. But ... we all know Yu'er's temperament. He isn't afraid of death. Because he's determined to kill Xiang Yang in this battle, it's hard to tell if he'll be able to return." Qin De says in a very low voice.
