Chapter 524: The End of the Gathering
As Yelu Nanxian spoke, everyone in the hall perked up their ears. The image of Song Qingshu summoning wind and rain at Fox Hill was so shocking that it seemed to transcend human capabilities.
Unlike ordinary soldiers of the Golden Serpent Camp, those who remained in the hall were the most elite figures in the world. After the initial shock, they had regained their composure and realized that Song Qingshu was not truly a deity; he must have used some trick, though they couldn’t figure out what it was.
Song Qingshu smiled slightly. “Does the princess really think it’s impossible for me to summon wind and rain?”
Yelu Nanxian couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “I’m not one of those ignorant commoners.”
Song Qingshu chuckled before his expression became serious. “How valuable does the princess think the method to summon wind and rain is?”
“If such a method could allow one to summon wind and rain at will, it would be priceless,” Yelu Nanxian said with a hint of understanding on her face. Apologetically, she added, “It was rash of me to ask.”
Song Qingshu shook his head. “You contributed to the defeat of the Qing soldiers, so it’s not a problem to tell you. However…”
As he shifted the tone of his words, everyone’s hearts tightened. On one hand, they felt it was too presumptuous to pry into such a secret, but on the other hand, they were eager for Song Qingshu to reveal the truth.
Song Qingshu hesitated for a moment before sighing. “Forget it. I initially wanted to keep up the mystique a bit longer, but since you all helped me in a time of need, it would be too stingy of me to keep it to myself.”
