Chapter 34 Xin Shisiniang (1/2)

Flushing red, An Renjie said, ”I tried to be nice but you seem to not appreciate it. I am not holding back anymore.”

”Are you sure you want to behave that way in front of me?” The woman's hand reached out to An Renjie and gently drew a circle. Her hands were as fair as her feet. With a gentle touch, An Renjie was on cloud nine.

An Renjie lowered his head to see a pair of long beautiful legs being lifted up slowly as if there were no joints attached to it. In an unfathomable angle, the legs kicked on his abdomen.

He felt like he was on cloud nine earlier on but right then, he literally flew away.

Further and further away from the ground, An Renjie was filled with fear. In the blink of an eye, he had reached the peak. He would definitely not survive in one piece to be falling from such height.

Of course, he fell. However unexpectedly, he survived the fall without any injuries. Reason being, a sword had cushioned his landing.

Like a master painter working on his masterpiece, Shen Lian skilfully channeled his energy into the ebony sword.

An Renjie fell right on and stumbled over some tables and chairs. He dared not to approach again, of course. He knew that this woman was not an easy catch.

A normal woman would not have such flawless features. She had no scars, fine lines, blocked pores, not any impurities.

Neither was she using any foundation.

Unless she practiced any art similar to ”taming the white tiger” or ”slaying the red dragon”. If so, she was not just any ordinary human being.

”You, are Mister Yu,” with a lovely face she pointed.

Her tone was naive yet genuine without a hint of pretense.

”My family name is Shen but I am probably the Mister Yu that you're looking for.”

”So your family name is Shen. Then why would they call you Mister Yu? But I have heard of a poem that describes people like you, 'Strangers are like jade horses, there won't be a second person like you in this world'. I think the name Mister Yu sure suits you.”

She analyzed Shen Lian seriously and seemed to have developed a particular interest towards his face. Her eyes were filled with admiration yet it didn't seem too desperate.

”Well, who are you and why are looking for me?” Shen Lian did not feel awkward by her scrutinization and calmly questioned her instead.

He tried to figure out her background but he could not come up with any answers. His instinct told him that there was something dangerous about her but he was not disgusted by it.

”My name is Xin Shisiniang. I was sent by my father to invite you to be our guest.”

”Did you walk in the snow to get here?” Shen Lian asked abruptly.

”Hell yeah! I don't have the ability to stop snow from falling neither should I be nosing into that.” Xin Shisiniang was not unapproachable. She was just very frank and straightforward.

She did not call An Renjie, Mister Zhu, to insult him but because he reminded her of a pig.

And she was just being defensive towards An Renjie's offense.

”I've pretty much figured out that your father is non-human and so are you.” Shen Lian finally confirmed something as Xin Shisiniang arrived from the snow without any traces of the snow. That was not something achievable by martial arts.

Even if someone had very strong Qigong, it would still be difficult for them to sustain their power in such long journey.

There were no sights of horse carriage nearby, so it was safe to assume that Xin Shisiniang walked here.

Furthermore, if she did use her Qigong, she would have been burnt out from shielding herself against the snow storm. There was no way she would look as calm and energetic as she was.

The kick that she gave An Renjie was out of pure strength, no inner strength was detected.
