Chapter 59 (1/2)

The shop owner happily walked through the street. His steps are very light, that if Lin Xiao’s group didn’t quicken their pace, they might’ve lost the shop owner already.

Though Long Yinlian could walk on his own without a problem, Lin Xiao still took his hand to help lead him along. They went past four stores before they came face to face with a building that appeared less crude than the rest.

Bai Chenyi felt that the building looks familiar, but he couldn’t recall it. That is, until he saw a figure of a young woman working in the shop. Almost immediately, Bai Chenyi pulled up his cloak and covered his head, hiding his presence.

Long Yinlian noticed this movement, and he couldn’t help but ask the young general. “General Bai, is there anything wrong?” he whispered his inquiry.

“Nothing is wrong. Please do not worry about it, Master Long,” Bai Chenyi replied.

This short exchange went unnoticed by Lin Xiao whose attention are currently focused on the building before him.

“This is the place?” Lin Xiao asked the shop owner.

“Yes! This is the place,” the shop owner replied enthusiastically. Then his eyes seemed to have caught something because Lin Xiao could see it move, as if following a movement.

Looking at the direction of the shop owner’s gaze, Lin Xiao finally saw the one who made the shop owner lost his reason. ‘Indeed, it was a young woman!’ Lin Xiao finally confirmed his suspicion.

The young woman in question was indeed beautiful. But for her to work at the western side of the marketplace, surely she is not your typical woman. Just with how she handled the weapon in her hand, Lin Xiao knew that she practices martial art.

Then, Lin Xiao looked back at the shop owner’s figure. Just from his lanky body, it was clear that the shop owner didn’t practice martial art at all. This observation was only solidified when Lin Xiao hear his breath. Shaking his head, Lin Xiao wondered that even if the shop owner was successful in his pursuit, how can he satisfy his woman?

The young woman also noticed the gaze of the shop owner and looked at their direction. “Oh, if it isn’t Mo Daren! Welcome!” she greeted them as she walked over towards them. “Are you here bringing customers again?”

Shop Owner Mo immediately nods his head. “This Esteemed Master is looking for a weapon for his young disciple,” he said as he gestured to Long Yinlian then pointed to Xia Yushen who is currently within Lin Xiao’s arm.

“I don’t have anything that is suitable for this boy, so I thought that maybe your shop would have it.”

The eyes of the woman landed on Lin Xiao, then to the child in his arm. She took a few steps closer before reaching out to take hold of Xia Yushen’s arm.

“His muscle is still developing. It seems that he started late?” she asked as she looked over at Long Yinlian.

Before Long Yinlian could even answer, Xia Yushen spoke up first. “Big sister, how can you know that?” he asked, surprised that the woman could figure out just by touching him.

The young woman let out a small laughter when she heard Xia Yushen’s soft, innocent voice. “Young boy, once you become better in martial art, you will know,” she replied as she pats his head. Then she turned her attention back to Long Yinlian. “What style of martial art are you teaching him?”
