Chapter 197 - First Meeting With Second Senior Brother
Chapter 197: First Meeting With Second Senior Brother
Little Yuan’er felt suspicious. She remembered her master’s words and did not dare to be careless. She asked again, “Who are you?”
The green-robed swordsman turned around slowly. A genial smile could be seen on his face as he looked at Little Yuan’er. He nodded slightly and said in a gentle voice, “It’s just as I expected.”
“What do you mean by it’s just as you expected? What are you looking at?” Initially, Little Yuan’er intended to threaten to poke his eyes out, but she was worried her master would get angry. For this reason, she swallowed the threats that were hanging on the tip of her tongue and said, “I’m warning you, stop following me…” After she finished speaking, she walked past the green-robed swordsman and walked along an alley.
The green-robed swordsman crossed his arms and followed Little Yuan’er.
Little Yuan’er frowned. She stopped and said, “Hey…” Then, she raised a foot and stomped on the ground.
Bam!
The ground was dented.
Anyone at the fifth stage of the Body Tempering realm was capable of this.
“How did you know?” Little Yuan’er’s curiosity was piqued, and she followed up with more questions.
“Seventh Junior Brother told me about it.”
“Seventh Senior Brother is here as well?”
“I don’t know.”
“What about Eldest Senior Brother?”
“I don’t know.”
“Second Senior Brother… Can I see your sword?”
To a swordsman, their swords were their lives. They would never part with it.
However, Yu Shangrong’s reply was light and easy. “Sure.” He handed his Longevity Sword over.
Little Yuan’er received it carefully. However, the instant she held it in her hand, the terrifying weight made her stumble backward. Fortunately, her cultivation base was not weak. She made timely adjustments to her strength and wielded it as though it weighed nothing.
Little Yuan’er admired it for a moment. She even gave it a few swings. She clicked her tongue in wonder. Then, she presented it back to Yu Shangrong with both hands in a respectful manner.
“What do you think?” Yu Shangrong asked.
“I can’t say for sure… I feel that it’s good, but it doesn’t seem to fit me,” Little Yuan’er said honestly.
Yu Shangrong sheathed his Longevity Sword and said with a faint smile, “You’re not suited for the sword, little junior sister…”
“That’s right, I have the Nirvana Sash! Senior Brother, would you like to see it?”
“No, thanks.” Yu Shangrong stopped in his tracks. He looked up at the sky and at Ci Mansion before he said. “Little junior sister, I have a gift for you.”
Little Yuan’er clapped her hands and said, “Really?”
Yu Shangrong raised his right hand, and an embroidered box flew toward him from afar. He had clearly prepared this beforehand.
“What’s that?” Little Yuan’er asked curiously.
“I hope you’ll like it…” Yu Shangrong gave her the box.
Little Yuan’er opened it and looked inside… A set of green, exquisite-looking clothes were folded neatly inside the box. They had a faint glow to it as well.
When she looked up again, Yu Shangrong was already walking in the opposite direction with his sword in his hands.
“Se-second Senior Brother?”
“I’m glad that I met you. I have something to attend to. We’ll meet again.” With that, Yu Shangrong went further and further away.
Little Yuan’er put the embroidered box away. She nodded at Yu Shangrong’s back. With surprising maturity, she said, “Thank you for your gift, Second Senior Brother!”
Whoosh!
Yu Shangrong’s figure disappeared.
The empty alley was now deserted.
It was as if the famous Sword Devil had never been here in the first place.
Little Yuan’er carried the embroidered box, unsure of how to feel…
At this moment, Ci An called out from afar, “My lady. Old Mister wants to see you.”
“Coming!” Little Yuan’er returned to the Ci Mansion.
When she entered the room, Lu Zhou’s gaze fell on the embroidered box she was carrying.
Little Yuan’er hastily said, “Master… I didn’t steal this. It was given to me by Second Senior Brother…”
