Chapter 2, Master

Father ... ... are you doing well ?

Miss, you have not returned for two years. The master has missed you greatly, and he will surely be very happy to see you today

I hope so

Whoosh

There is a master practicing swordsmanship! The ability to provoke the sound of the Falling Snow Sword in my hand indicates that their swordsmanship must have reached the realm where the sword energy pierces the vast sky

To unleash the sword energy, one must refine true energy. Once the true energy is fully formed, one can be regarded as a master in their own right across the world. If one can open the circulation of the meridians, allowing true energy to flow endlessly, they can be considered top-tier and may establish their own sect. The most outstanding among them are revered as masters of martial arts... Could it be a master from the Moonlight Sword Sect?

Ordinary to the point of being commonplace

Oh, this is President Wang's third son... it seems he is called Wang Lian

The young girl speaks to herself

The master is well, but I miss having the young lady by my side a bit.

The eldest young master and the second young master have both left Yunshen City. The eldest young master is still able to remain stationed at the Juyan Valley, monitoring the bandits of the Chongjiao group and safeguarding the peace of the region. From time to time, he can return to the city to reunite with the master. However, the second young master is serving in the capital of Jianyuan, burdened with official duties, and often goes a whole year without a single meeting.

Without seeing how she exerted her strength, in the next moment, her slender and delicate figure had already shot out through the carriage window at an incredible angle, landing on the ground

The agility and lightness she just displayed, if she were to confront those few who consider themselves elite, they would not even have the strength to retaliate

Qing Huan noticed the gaze of her young lady and expressed her surprise with a remark

There is a hint of earthy scent on the body, as if one has just emerged from the woods

The young girl, upon hearing what Qing Huan said, slightly tilted her head and gazed out through the carriage window, as if it had stirred thoughts in her heart

Miss, you are overthinking. The master is the lord of Yunshen City, guarding this region, with three thousand Qilin Guards under his command, whose might shakes the world. What small-minded person would dare to cause trouble within the borders of our Yunshen City? It is likely that what you have heard are merely minor disturbances that have been exaggerated and misrepresented by others.

The young girl immediately became interested and asked, "What is his strength like?"

The girl shook her head

She is merely a maid, albeit of a slightly higher status than an ordinary maid, yet the information she can access remains ultimately limited

Left?

There, the scars of battle are everywhere, yet no one can be seen.

Miss

The young girl, aged sixteen or seventeen, possesses a face as beautiful as jade, devoid of any trace of childishness. Her pitch-black eyes resemble brilliant stars, radiating a profound and intelligent glow. A cascade of jet-black hair falls gracefully over her shoulders, exuding an air of effortless elegance. Even within the carriage, she maintains a seated posture, with a four-foot-long fine steel sword resting horizontally in front of her. There are no precious gemstones adorning it, much like her simple, light blue checkered gauze dress, which is unadorned and plain.

Without the guidance of a renowned teacher, what can one achieve through self-study?

The young girl listened, her fair forehead slightly furrowing: "I have heard that the situation in Lizhou is not very peaceful, with overseas bandit groups causing trouble, and within, there are rampant gangs of thieves. Even the black gun clan south of Luming Town is stirring restlessly, often causing harm to others. Furthermore, there are signs of the resurgence of the Black Dragon cult. Is this all true?"

Martial arts training

This young man named Wang Lian, around twenty years old, does not exhibit a sense of lightness or grace in his demeanor, clearly having not cultivated true energy. How could he possibly be the formidable figure whose sword energy pierces the sky?

The maid Qinghuan let out a gasp

The morning sunlight cast a reflection on her long eyelashes, making her beauty resemble a poetic painting

Miss

Strength? It should not be impressive. His family does not support his martial arts training, and it is said that he relies entirely on self-study... Could it be that you think he is the master you sensed just now

After the carriage had moved forward for a moment, a young man walking alongside the official road appeared in her line of sight

Dismounting from the carriage, the young girl moved gracefully, heading straight into the woods, the somewhat intricate terrain of the forest did not hinder her movement in the slightest

Furthermore

The girl glanced around, sensing the surroundings subtly. After confirming that she could indeed hear no sounds, the excitement on her charmingly spirited face began to fade: "What a pity, I thought I had encountered a master and wanted to spar with him a bit."

At this moment, the girl's gaze suddenly fell upon him

This young man ... ...

As the atmosphere inside the carriage fell into silence, the fine steel sword in the girl's hand let out a soft hum. Being the owner of the sword, the girl immediately turned her gaze towards a grove of trees thirty meters away from the official road, where she could distinctly sense a chilling sword aura extending across a hundred meters.

It is unexpected that in the heart of the empire, the renowned Yunsen City has such formidable experts, the Moonlight Sword Sect, or are they members of the Hongmen from the No Sun Peak in the west

Qing Huan spoke, yet her tone was exceedingly flat: "However, this third young master of the Wang family neither thinks of engaging in business, inheriting his father's career, and expanding the business association, nor does he consider entering politics, using the influence of the business association to rise swiftly. Instead, he prefers to practice martial arts"

The bandits of the冲角团

Buzz!

In less than a moment, she had already ventured sixty meters into the woods, arriving at a clearing.

With the assistance of the elder brother and the second brother, the father is certainly not left alone

The young girl nodded and, under the protection of the four knights, got back into the carriage

The young girl who had dismounted from the carriage did not pause for a moment, heading straight towards the woods ahead, startling the knights guarding either side of the carriage, who hurriedly shouted: "Protect the young lady"

President Wang is the head of the largest chamber of commerce in Yunshen City and even in the entire Lizhou, primarily dealing in grains, silk, tea, and other goods. Although he cannot be said to be as wealthy as a nation, he is considered one of the top affluent households in Yunshen City

I understand

The knight captain beside him spoke with a hint of respect

At this moment, those knights hurriedly dismounted and rushed over

Self-study

Outside Yunshen City, on a shaded official road six miles long, a luxurious carriage slowly made its way under the protection of twelve knights. Alongside the official road, the sounds of children laughing and playing could be heard from time to time, while in the distance, many simple farmers were seen traveling back and forth between the fields, toiling diligently.

However, compared to their previous indifference while carrying out tasks, their gaze towards the young girl has now undergone a completely different change

In the carriage, a young girl dressed in green, adorned as a maid, was gazing at the girl before her with a look of admiration

This is a seemingly ordinary-looking youth, around seventeen or eighteen years old, who, when thrown into a crowd, would go unnoticed by anyone. His clothing bears no distinctive marks.

Miss, we should return as soon as possible to avoid keeping the master waiting

Chairman Wang

The girl glanced at the blue ring and said nothing more

It is precisely late October, in the midst of deep autumn. The gentle morning sunlight cascades down, illuminating the well-tended fields, rendering the entire expanse of farmland as if covered with a layer of gold, presenting a scene of tranquil and harmonious pastoral beauty

The originally calm and composed young girl, resembling a refined lady, suddenly radiated a brilliant light from her eyes

It has been two years
