She stole a glance at the person beside her. Although this fellow called Ling Jian was still following beside her, he did not seem to have any intention of helping her up. It was as if he was here to tour the streets and not to send Miss Wei off. It was as if the beautiful lady beside him did not know him at all! However, she forgot that not to mention the fact that the 'blockhead' Ling Jian did not want to help her up, even if Ling Jian wanted to help her up, how could a virgin like her let a man touch her?
Looking at Ling Jian's cool expression, Wei XuanXuan could not help but grit her teeth and thought to herself, "What a block of wood!"
In a fit of pique, she decided to just stand there and not move. Ling Jian who was following beside her naturally stopped as well. However, he did not open his mouth and only looked at Wei XuanXuan with a puzzled expression, as if waiting for her to explain herself.
Wei XuanXuan was even more furious. She did not know why, but ever since she saw Ling Jian, the usually dignified and self-restrained Wei XuanXuan felt a subtle feeling of hatred in her heart. She could not wait to smash this face which was as taut as a rock to see what kind of expression he had on his face! Would it still be as infuriating as it is now?
Ling Jian saw that Wei XuanXuan had not even walked half the distance and actually stopped in a fit of pique. Ling Jian who had never come into contact with a girl before was naturally even more confused! He could only endure and stand beside Wei XuanXuan as he complained bitterly in his heart. To think that I, Ling Jian, would have such a day where I am standing together with a lady on the streets and being watched by everyone!
In Ling Jian's eyes, other than the few women in the Ling family, the rest of the women, regardless of whether they were young ladies or old ladies, would all be addressed as' ladies'. This was because Ling Tian had once said that addressing them in this manner would make him seem more manly!
Ling Tian's original intention was to make a joke, but who knew that Ling Jian would remember his words like a golden rule! As the saying goes, if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked as well. What was even more outrageous was that when these few people were saying these words, their expressions were solemn and cold. It was the signature expression of an assassin! Even Ling Tian, who had experienced this kind of battle for the first time, felt his hair stand on end!
What kind of person was this? How could a man treat a woman like this?
If it were you, seeing six or seven half-grown fellows in front of you, calling each other 'girls' and 'men' in front of you with a serious expression, you would probably faint as well.
Looking at Ling Jian's confused expression, Wei XuanXuan couldn't help but feel angry as she pouted, "My legs hurt, I can't walk anymore."
Ling Jian let out a long sigh. No wonder his young noble always said that women were troublesome, it was indeed the case! She had only walked a thousand feet and this missy was already unable to take it anymore!
Waving his hands, a beggar by the roadside came over. Ling Jian tossed out an ingot of silver, "Go and find a sedan chair, the rest is your reward."
That beggar was elated as he hugged the ingot of silver in disbelief. He bit down hard on the ingot and almost lost his teeth! Only then did he leave happily. Finding a sedan chair didn't even cost half a tael of silver. Now that Ling Jian had tossed out ten taels of silver, how could that beggar not be elated? The prices of goods in Sky Bearing were extremely low, and with this ingot of silver, he would no longer need to be a beggar. It would be more than enough for him to start a small business. How could that beggar not be elated? Afraid that Ling Jian would regret his decision, he took the ingot of silver and left in a hurry.
A short while later, that beggar brought a green sedan chair over. Wei XuanXuan finally heaved a sigh of relief as she stole a glance at Ling Jian. This fellow actually knew how to do things! I heard that he is Ling Tian's study attendant? What a pity.
Miss Wei had forgotten that a study attendant dared to be so rude to the princess of her empire? A study attendant could actually give a beggar ten taels of silver?!
Ling Jian gestured for Wei XuanXuan to get on the sedan chair. His face was still expressionless, and even his gaze seemed to have been frozen, forever having the same expression. Wei XuanXuan, who had just changed her impression of him, snorted coldly, unable to vent her anger. She then walked towards the sedan chair in a fit of pique.
Before she had even taken two steps, she felt her arm tighten. Ling Jian had actually grabbed onto her sacred and inviolable arm! She immediately felt a wave of embarrassment and anger. This fellow really doesn't know any manners! She was about to scold him! However, a cold aura suddenly emitted from beside her, causing her to dispel that thought!
Ling Jian's eyes narrowed as he pulled Wei XuanXuan back, shielding her behind him. His pair of eyes instantly became as sharp as arrows as he looked towards the front of the sedan chair.
In front of the sedan chair, a weirdly dressed person was slowly walking over. White linen headscarf, white linen robe, white linen boots, white linen sword tassels, and a blood red belt around his waist. With such flamboyant attire, he actually dared to walk on the streets as though there was no one else around him! It was the Golden Leaf Assassin, Ye BaiFei! Although Ling Jian had never seen him before, he was able to recognise him from his unique attire the moment he saw him!
A peer meeting a peer! Could this be considered as enemies meeting on a narrow road?!
No one would have thought that the two most famous assassins in the world would actually meet under such circumstances! Although Ye BaiFei did not know that the black clothed youth in front of him was the famous Pavilion Master of the First Pavilion, with his sharp sixth sense, he could still feel an extremely dangerous aura. He could not help but squint his eyes as he looked towards Ling Jian.
The attire of the two assassins was a stark contrast. Compared to Ye BaiFei's mournful attire, Ling Jian's attire was much more straightforward. Black headscarf, black robe, black boots, black scabbard, and black sword tassels! Other than his face which was white, his entire body was black!
Two pairs of cold and emotionless eyes! Two pairs of eyes which looked down on the world! Two pairs of eyes which were similarly unyielding and arrogant! These two people, other than the difference in their appearance and clothing, had too many similarities in their charm and temperament!
Two pairs of eyes which were filled with killing intent met in midair! It was as if two sharp swords were flying out at the same time. The tips of the swords collided with each other at the highest speed! In that instant, there was a feeling of sparks flying in all directions! As their eyes met, both of them felt their hearts tremble slightly!
So strong! Ling Chi and the rest probably did not have such killing intent!
This was the first thought that surfaced in Ling Jian's mind! As expected of 'Golden Leaf BaiFei', his reputation is not in vain!
This person is a peer!
This person is so strong!
First Pavilion?!
At this moment, a thought appeared in Ye BaiFei's mind! In that instant, his cold eyes were filled with battle intent! Sparring with someone from the First Pavilion was Ye BaiFei's greatest wish. Who would have thought that he would actually meet such a person! Although he could not confirm the other party's identity in the First Pavilion, from the other party's figure and aura, this person's martial arts were definitely not weaker than his own. His status in the First Pavilion was definitely not low! Even if he was not the Pavilion Head of the First Pavilion, he was definitely an important figure!
To be able to have such an opponent to battle with, wouldn't that be a great thing in life?!
The two of them stood 30 feet apart, facing each other! They were like two dangerous cheetahs, ready to pounce at any moment. At the same time, they were like two divine weapons unsheathed at the same time, ready to fight!
Killing intent surged to the heavens! It was unknown how many lives had been taken by these two men. The intensity of their killing intent was not inferior to that of a mighty army that had been through hundreds of battles on the battlefield. In fact, it was even stronger!
Wei XuanXuan suddenly felt her entire body turn cold, and all the hair on her body stood on end. A bone-chilling feeling invaded her heart, and she felt as though she had suddenly fallen from a warm and sunny place into the depths of hell! That intense contrast caused Wei XuanXuan's vision to turn black, and she almost fainted!
Wei XuanXuan let out a soft groan, and her face turned pale. Her body swayed, and she fell to the ground.
Ling Jian's sharp eyes were emotionless as he stared coldly at Ye BaiFei, not daring to shift his gaze for even a second! He had already discovered that Wei XuanXuan was unable to withstand the killing intent from the two of them and had fallen to the ground beside him. However, he could not move at this moment! The moment he helped Wei XuanXuan up, if Ye BaiFei took the opportunity to attack, even if he did not lose his life, he would definitely be at a disadvantage!
Furthermore, Ye BaiFei was definitely not a gentleman, nor was he a chivalrous person! He was the same as him, an assassin! Furthermore, he was a top-notch assassin! The so-called morals of the pugilistic world, and the rules of the pugilistic world, in Ye BaiFei's eyes, were nothing but dog fart! If the both of them were in different positions, Ling Jian would definitely not give up such an opportunity!
Many passersby had already noticed these two weird men, standing opposite each other like fighting cocks, not knowing what they were going to do. Many of them shook their heads and sighed, cursing the two of them as lunatics.
Ling Jian's gaze turned serious, and he suddenly said, "Sword breaking the winds and clouds, golden leaves flying?"
Ye BaiFei's zombie-like face twitched, and he revealed a sneer that was uglier than crying, "The lives of the world in my hands, the winds and clouds of the world in the first pavilion? Hehehehe, what big words! "
Ling Jian's gaze turned as cold as ice, "Whether my words are big or not, you will know soon enough. However, this is not the time for us to fight!"
Ye BaiFei let out a sigh of regret, how could he not know about this? This was the bustling streets of Sky Bearing! He then said coldly, "How about tonight's third watch?"
Ling Jian considered for a moment, and said, "Tonight's third watch, in the willow forest, if you dare to come, I will not wait!"
Ye BaiFei seemed to have nodded his head. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
