Chapter 411: Mingxiu’s Breakthrough

Translator: IreneEditor: TYZ, KLKL

Uncle Yu was resting in the room, pondering over things.

He could obtain the family head’s trust because he knew how to use his brain by analyzing the family head’s thoughts. He felt that an eligible subordinate had to be able to see and think more, and figure out the higher-ups’ true intentions in order not to mess up.

A pity he hadn’t seen Ai Hui earlier.

He was very curious about Ai Hui since rumors involving him had been on the rise, as if he had quickly entered the radars of people all over. The residence had been unconcerned about him previously, because, in spite of his position as little Miss’ junior, his abilities were simply too lacking.

Lacking in abilities was another phrase for trash.

Although news of Ai Hui’s doings in Peace City had been spread extensively, it wasn’t worth mentioning in front of the big figures. Many felt that because of Ai Hui’s imcompetence, people like Shi Xueman and Duanmu Huanghun were bound to replace him in future. The internal disorder within Central Pine Faction was predestined.

But recently, everyone had been dismissing their previous standpoint, since Ai Hui had displayed great powers and astonishing progress.

There were quite a number of families, like the Lu residence, who had been analyzing Ai Hui’s progress from the porridge feast up till now. It allowed them to shockingly conclude that his abilities indeed took a major leap within this short period of time.

If Ai Hui could keep up with this pace and have people like Shi Xueman and Duanmu Huanghun by his side, Central Pine Faction would instantly become a force not to be reckoned with.

The Lu family had an advantage in this aspect since there was an unbreakable bond between Ai Hui and Mingxiu. He’d come over especially for her, evidence that they were close like siblings. As long as the Lu family did not act recklessly, they would always be ahead of the others.

The key now was for the family to express their sincerity and maintain a friendly relationship with him.

He suddenly recalled that two of Second Young Master’s subordinates had been severely injured from a conflict they’d had with Ai Hui. This news made him furrowed his brows. He would have to remind Second Young Master not to go overboard.

Second Young Master adored the little Miss. Many knew that the family head held an ambivalent attitude toward it.

But Uncle Yu knew the person the family head really took a fancy to was Yu Mingqiu, who was missing. Yu Mingqiu and Miss had been childhood friends. Plus, he was the junior of First Young Master and a disciple of Dai Gang. Who could be a better candidate than him?

But while Miss was quiet and contented, she would make sure the whole city knew of her opinions whenever she had one. Plus, she was about to become an embroidery master, so the family would require a lot of support from her. As such, her opinions weighed heavily on the family head. On top of that, a noble man admired her greatly. If the family placed considerable weight on the little Miss’ opinions, Yu Mingqiu’s words were basically sacred.

He was rather worried about Second Young Master. Although Second Young Master was diligent, he was overly impatient.

Suddenly, Uncle Yu stood up. Where the embroidery workshop was, an intense elemental energy wave was soaring into the sky.

A look of joy appeared on his face.

The female embroiderers rushed out, the same joy evident on their faces.

…..

In the courtyard of a house located in another corner of Asakusa City, a few big fellows, who were talking in low voices, stopped suddenly to look at the sky.

”That is… Lu Mingxiu’s embroidery workshop!”

”She’s experiencing a breakthrough!

The few of them looked around and saw the shock in one another’s eyes. They’d not expected Lu Mingxiu to undergo a breakthrough at this time.

”What do we do? Are we going to just sit and watch?”

The leader was calmer. He responded, ”We’re here to seek information, not to get involved in other issues. Boss is still waiting for us to get back. Lu Mingxiu can’t run away!”

”How can we let such a rare opportunity slip? I disagree!”

A tall, grim fellow with long arms stood up, saying, ”One shot is all it takes.”

The rest immediately fell silent. The grim looking man was called Ban Yan, one of the strongest fellows in the Grass Bandits. He had perfected his bow techniques and countless people had died from his arrows.

The leader clenched his teeth. ”You only get one shot! The rest of you, disperse first!”

The others did not resist and left without fooling around.

…..

In the warehouse, having completed [Glimmer of Autumn Moon], Mingxiu did not immediately stop but instead, closed her eyes while standing in the same spot, soaking in and reminiscing about the feeling from earlier.

Ai Hui’s eyes lit up. He’d felt the change in the elemental energy within Senior Mingxiu’s body and became speechless.

Mingxiu had, for the longest time, been just a step away from becoming a Master, but was stuck and unable break to through.

Earlier, it had been her first time controlling so many embroidery needles so it was very fresh to her. Especially since the flow of the needles was completely integrated, like the natural movement of running water, it shocked and stimulated her greatly.

So embroidery needles could be this smooth flowing!

After all, Ai Hui had limited achievements when it came to embroidery. He hadn’t modified this loom from the perspective of an embroiderer but instead, he’d done it with his understanding of elemental energy and Teacher’s theories. Also, he’d blended in his knowledge of sword formations to create this unique loom.

All of this impacted Mingxiu significantly. The feeling of inspiration surged like an erupting volcano and whatever questions she’d been puzzling over were easily solved.

She relished in it all, completely engrossed.

The dried up elemental energy within her body moved suddenly, as if a turning point had emerged. The surrounding elemental energy surged wildly toward her, making increasingly huge motions as all the energy flowed backward and into her body.

Ai Hui’s face changed greatly. The elemental energy around him had been vacuumed out!
