Chapter 42 Lady Xinyi!
Chapter 42 Lady Xinyi!
Following their refreshing dip in the lake, the cool breeze brushed against their cleansed bodies as Ming Yuelin and Xue Hua made their way toward the house walking up the mountains.
The sound of birds chirping and leaves rustling in the wind filled the air, creating a sense of tranquility and peace. "Eh? You have seen me before?"
Ming Yuelin was completely taken aback and stared at Xue Hua with a puzzled expression, her eyes filled with curiosity and confusion. Xue Hua gave a slight nod and spoke "Three days ago... I saw you fighting a tall woman in that small arena where many people are surrounded."
"Ah, you saw me fight that gorilla?"
Xue Hua spoke with a nod "I only took a quick glimpse and left from there."
Ming Yuelin frowned slightly and asked "Junior Sister, did you also come here to get the Sovereign Inheritance?"
Xue Hua shook her head gently "No, I heard the Holy Maiden is coming here, so I also came here to see if I get any opportunities to kill her."
"But I failed... so I ran to this forest escaping from them and Master, helped me that day."
'She must have climbed the tree to protect herself. That's why she fell down from the tree.' Ming Yuelin thought in her mind.
Xue Hua looked down at her robes and spoke "Thank you for the robes, Senior Sister."
Glancing at her indifferent face, Ming Yuelin giggled "Hehe, don't worry."
'Now Master needs to buy me 3 sets of clothes, muhehehe.'
"By the way, Junior Sister... the ceremonial gift for Master, a fruit. You are going to get it now?"
With a shake of her head, Xue Hua spoke "No, Senior Sister. That fruit is protected by a powerful spirit beast, so for now, I am sure I can't get it."
"When I become powerful enough, I will fetch it and gift it to Master."
Looking at the determined face of Xue Hua, Ming Yuelin remembered her Master's words 'Be kind to her.'
With a smile on her face, Ming Yuelin spoke "Junior Sister, ask this Senior Sister when you go to get that fruit... I will help you too."
"Hm? No, I don't want to burden-
"No! I am saying... so I am coming with you."
"Ok."
...
*tap* With a gentle tap, the door of the chariot swung open, revealing a stunning woman who gracefully emerged.
Her flowing locks of blue hair danced in the breeze, framing her face as her serene blue eyes glistened like tranquil water. Upon witnessing her arrival, a soldier quickly approached and knelt before her "Lady Xinyi, welcome to Northern Bei Kingdom." The woman, Feng Xinyi nodded her head and muttered "Take me to Shi'er."
"Lady Xinyi, we have been waiting for your arrival." A woman came there at this time.
The woman looked at the soldier and spoke "You can leave, I will escort Lady Xinyi." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The man nodded and left the place. The servant woman looked at Feng Xinyi and gestured her hand "My Lady, this way."
Feng Xinyi raised her head looking at the hotel building before making her way inside. Climbing the stairs, Feng Xinyi and the woman quickly reached a room.
Feng Xinyi opened the door and entered inside. There she saw Hong Shi sitting on the bed with a silver spear in her hand.
Hong Shi, who was cleaning her spear with a cloth raised her gaze for a second and looked at Feng Xinyi.
As if she was not there, Hong Shi didn't mind her and continued her work.
Feng Xinyi turned to look at the servant and she left the room with a bow before closing the door.
Feng Xinyi cast a quick glance at the silver-haired woman and asked "Don't you know that you have to greet your Master?"
Hong Shi narrowed her eyes as a mutter escaped her lips "I never acknowledged you as my Master."
For her, Zhang Yuan is the only one who holds the title of her true Master. Feng Xinyi squinted her gaze and spoke "Even though you don't accept me as your Master, the Holy Hall and the Council of Worships have chosen me as your Master."
Hong Shi just stayed silent and continued cleaning the silver spear and Feng Xinyi clutched her forehead in irritation as her disciple has never respected her.
She strolled to the nearby couch and took a seat "I heard that a demon tried to kill you and it managed to escape."
Hearing this, Hong Shi gritted her teeth in anger and clutched her spear tightly as a cold glint passed through her eyes "That damn demon."
"It sneaked into the hotel room and tried to attack me. It was not just random, that demon was clearly aiming for me."
She clicked her tongue "However because of my Holy energy, I saw through its disguise. And the most interesting part is that... it has that sinister forbidden energy."
Feng Xinyi's eyes furrowed upon hearing this "So, it's one of them."
"En. A demon that has sold its soul to the devil. Just thinking about it alone disgusts me. Tsk!"
"I fought it and ripped one of its hands. However, it managed to escape from me and hid in the forest."
"But I couldn't follow through because of the powerful spirit beasts within the forest and it was night at that time."
Feng Xinyi gave a faint nod and Hong Shi spoke, her eyes narrowing "I want to kill that demon. So, help me."
Hm? Feng Xinyi raised an eyebrow in amusement because this was the first time Hong Shi was asking for help and muttered "No, I can't."
"Why? Because I didn't acknowledge you as my Master?"
Feng Xinyi shook her head "No, it's because the opening of the Inheritance is nearing. And if you got hurt or any other serious injuries when you are in the forest... you can't enter the Inheritance ground."
A smile crept upon her lips "But if you acknowledge me as your Master, then I will make an exception and help you go through the forest."
Hong Shi let out a sigh 'This woman... she is clearly powerful enough to fight any spirit beasts in that forest and protect me at the same time.'
'She is just trying to use this opportunity to make me accept her as my Master.'
"Never in a million years."
Feng Xinyi shrugged her hands "As I guessed."
Leaning back on the couch, Feng Xinyi glanced at Hong Shi's face 'Why is she so aggressive when it has something to do with demons?'
Hong Shi glimpsed at the spear in her hand 'I will eradicate every one of you demons from this world.'
