Chapter 45
“Are you going to practice your sword movements? Follow me. I know a place,” Hong Feiyu said.
“Really? Thanks!” Of course Jiang Chen wouldn’t refuse him.
Then Jiang Chen followed Hong Feiyu to a quiet bamboo forest. They followed a trail over to a pavilion.
Around the pavilion was a space paved with pebbles.
Hardly had they come close to it when they heard the brandishing of sword.
Jiang Chen and Hong Feiyu looked at each other and walked closer with curiosity.
Soon a woman’s slim figure became visible to them. She was wearing a white sweatsuit. Her long hair was fluttering while she moved, agile as a cat.
It was to his surprise that Wen Xin actually took Jiang Chen’s advice.
In her final analysis, she was influenced by his confidence.
“Ah!” Suddenly Wen Xin exclaimed with a pleasant surprise.
Jiang Chen was shocked. Did Wen Xin succeed in only one try?
If so, her talent was really great.
“Wait,” Wen Xin said to Jiang Chen. She walked over to him. Her frustration had disappeared. She asked him, “Who is your master?”
“What do you mean?” Jiang Chen didn’t understand her question.
“I mean your sword master.”
Wen Xin had tried Jiang Chen’s advice. Although she hadn’t succeeded, she had found what the problem was. And it was exactly what Jiang Chen had told her.
But she had seen Jiang Chen’s level, so she had no way to believe Jiang Chen had the ability to give her instructions. She thought he must have had a good master.
“I don’t have any master,” Jiang Chen told her the truth.
He felt strange when he saw the confused expression on Wen Xin’s face.
Ever since he left the Hundred Thousand Mountains, no one had believed him.
For example, when he said he wanted to join the Natural Law School, everyone looked at him in an unbelievable manner.
Wen Xin was feeling the same at that moment.
“I don’t believe you. People who could give such instructions must have reached a high level.” Wen Xin was very direct. She was as sharp as a razor.
“First of all, it’s none of my business that you don’t believe me. Secondly, I instructed you and you found my instructions were right, so you should be grateful to me instead of questioning me.”
Maybe Hong Feiyu would be influenced by Wen Xin, but Jiang Chen wouldn’t.
Wen Xin looked very surprised, since no one had ever dared speak to her like this.
It made Hong Feiyu nervous, too. He wanted to tell Jiang Chen something, but didn’t know how to start.
“Don’t you know who I am?” Wen Xin asked.
“Your name is Wen Xin. That’s all I know.”
To their surprise, Wen Xin smiled, which was very rare for her. Her smile made her look more beautiful.
Hong Feixu couldn’t believe what he had seen. He rubbed his eyes to convince himself he wasn’t dreaming.
“What’s your name?”
“Jiang Chen.”
“You’re new here?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Chen vaguely sensed that she wasn’t just an average woman.
At this moment, they heard some footsteps in the bamboo forest. It sounded like many people were coming.
Jiang Chen knew one of them. It was the youngster who had stopped him from entering the square.
The others were also coming from the square, where they had been practicing.
Yang Jianwei was among them as well.
Taking a closer look, Jiang Chen found that the guy was good-looking. He was tall and strong, with dark eyebrows, but he displayed an arrogance that made people uncomfortable.
“Princess.” He came up to Wen Xin and greeted her passionately.
“Princess?”
