Chapter: 1148 (1/2)
AST 1148 – The Fearsome Strength of the Young Mistress of the Yan Clan
For a State Master level martial artist to be a chauffeur would be an incredible loss of face. Even members of the royal family would not demean a State Master by forcing him to be their chauffeur.
There was only one reason for this. This elder who was at the State Master level had willingly chosen to be the chauffeur of the Yan Clan’s young mistress. Otherwise, with the dignity of his martial prowess, it was impossible to force him to be a chauffeur for anyone.
Soon after, the White Draconic Horse came closer. One of the injured men from the Lei Clan was being carried to the side by his clan’s members to make way. The horse carriage stopped.
“Uncle Zong, why is there such a huge commotion outside?”
An indescribably elegant voice was heard. At this moment, everyone was silenced. This woman’s voice made everyone quiet down immediately. The people that were present clearly heard her voice.
Her voice wasn’t considered melodious and it had a tinge of roughness within it. It was dignified and powerful, giving off an elegant impression.
“Young Mistress, we have arrived at the Divine Weapon Street. This place has just engaged in a battle and some of the people are injured. People will leave soon.” The elder replied respectfully.
Then, the curtain on the car lifted. This carriage was like a small house, with doors in the front and back, and windows on both sides. These type of carriages were suitable for long term rides, but were more of a token of status. In Yan City, it was unlikely for anyone to not recognize the White Draconic Horse Carriage.
A pair of delicate hands lifted the curtains of the carriage and a tall figure walked out. In an instant, the surrounding people were stunned. Qing Shui was also caught up in the moment.
The woman wasn’t wearing any veil. Though it was difficult to tell how tall she was, she had a lean figure. Her green elegant dress wasn’t that eye catching but her peaceful expression, flawless fair skin and perfect pair of beautiful eyes were just like tranquil autumn waters. Her dazzling eyes sparkled as they blinked. Together with her hair that was tied up high in a ponytail and her exquisite sharp nose, she looked like a master artist’s finest work.
Qing Shui shook his head. He wasn’t amazed by the woman’s beauty, and was more mesmerized by her aura of elegance. It was an aura that was alluring to anyone. She was attractive, elegant, precious, quiet yet imposing.
What was most astonishing was that not that this woman’s beauty was comparable to Yu Ruyan and Tantai Xuan. It was that even Qing Shui was amazed by the lady’s strength.
He was unable to feel how formidable the Yan Clan’s Young Mistress strength was, but he could feel that it was way higher than the strengths of the Formation Immortal Sect’s black and white elders.
“How old is she to have such a level of cultivation?” Qing Shui was dumbfounded.
“She calls the elder Uncle Zong… for someone who she greets as Uncle to willingly be her chauffeur. This woman must be strong. Moreover, Uncle Zong should be a subordinate of her elders.”
This point further illustrated the formidability of the Yan Clan’s Young Mistress. If she wasn’t strong herself, it was impossible for someone of the State Master level to willingly serve her.
As the commotion continued, the Young Mistress of the Yan Clan walked down with a graceful posture and approached the man from the Lei Clan.
“Young Mistress Yan, you’re here, cough cough……” The man from the Lei Clan forced a smile and said respectfully.
“You’re from the Lei Clan? What’s going on here?”
The Young Mistress of the Yan Clan said calmly and took a final glance at Qing Shui. Her eye contact stunned him.
She was impressively beautiful and dazzlingly stunning, her spring-like clear eyes adding to her sereneness and elegance. It was as if she could see through a person’s soul. It was at this moment that Qing Shui felt that she had seen right through him.
It was the first time Qing Shui had ever felt this way and this implied either the formidable strength this woman possessed or the profoundness of her mystical skills.
The woman looked at Qing Shui and the expression in her eyes changed slightly before she averted her gaze. Qing Shui immediately turned his back and walked towards the blacksmith store. He didn’t like the way this woman was looking at him.
“‘Oh, it’s not a big deal, we’re just learning from each other. Young Mistress, you must be here to collect the weapons. Let’s go, I’ll lead the way.” The man from the Lei Clan did not dare to say much. He hadn’t expected the Yan Clan’s young mistress to be mad at him.
“It would be better you recuperate first, I am aware of where to go.” The Young Mistress of the Yan Clan said as she lifted her head to look at the signboard. In a split second, her eyes gave off a bizarre expression once again.
Anyone who saw this signboard would definitely compliment its craftsmanship. The drawing skills, the penmanship, the forging ability and materials were all top notch. All of this could easily be understood by experts of these fields.
“Did this Firecloud Blacksmith Store just open? This shop wasn’t open the last time I was here. The signboard also looks very new.” The Young Mistress of the Yan Clan said softly.
As she murmured to herself, she then smiled at the elder: “Uncle Zong, you can help me take the weapons and I’ll browse around. You can find me here later!”
The young mistress of the Yan Clan pointed to the Firecloud Blacksmith store. She wanted to ask who made this signboard. Another issue was that man who gave her a very bizarre feeling. She couldn’t exactly point out what was weird.
The people that were present left and about ten people came from afar. These people looked like martial artists. Attending to the White Draconic Horse, they seemed like followers from the Yan Clan.
The young mistress of the Yan Clan took another glance at the signboard and walked towards the shop that was considered the smallest blacksmith store. She could already hear sounds of forging coming from the store.
As she stepped into the place, everything seemed new open, without any customers. Afar was one person forging ironware and what astonished her was the man forging was the man she had seen previously.
Previously, she had already sensed the man’s formidability. He could defeat the Lei Clan’s people and leave with no injuries. This showed that the man had great power, but never had she thought that he would actually be a blacksmith master.
The reason she could confirm that this man was a blacksmith master was because she saw the charm in Qing Shui as he was forging. She had seen many blacksmith grandmasters but at this moment, she could see the astonishing aura from this man once again.
