Chapter 69: Chapter 69: The Woman in White
Translator: 549690339
“Last time I was on a mission in Cloud Water County, 1 took the opportunity to oversee the county’s enrolment exam, and Lu Yun was one of the disciples who passed the exam there.”
Meng Hongfei explained casually, but he couldn’t help but feel sentimental.
“1 didn’t realize that this was how you met. So, you could be regarded as Lu Yun’s guide.”
“However, you seem quite incompetent as a guide, nearly injuring our junior brother.”
The young man in white looked at Meng Hongfei with amusement, causing the latter to blush instantly.
Meng Hongfei, usually aloof, showing such an awkward demeanor amused the young man even more and he burst into laughter.
Then, the young man in white winked at Lu Yun and laughed, “My name is Qin Yun, and you are Lu Yun. We both have ‘Yun’ in our names, it appears we have quite a fate. We should get along well from now on.”
“Haha, nice to meet you, Senior Brother Qin!”
In the face of such enthusiasm from Qin Yun, Lu Yun also felt a joy in his heart and greeted him with a smile.
Meng Hongfei on the side, however, curled his lip disdainfully, saying arrogantly, “If you’re relating this with destiny, then there should be many fated ones in the Martial Academy.”
“Oh, Brother Meng, are you going to continue the challenge? Well, the previous fight still doesn’t have a winner. Let’s continue.”
After saying that, the smile on Qin Yun’s face faded. He became serious and made a gesture of drawing his sword.
“Hump!”.
Meng Hongfei snorted coldly, crossed his arms, turned his face away disdainfully, showing an attitude that he couldn’t be bothered.
A breeze swept over the lake, causing ripples. Under the sunlight, the surface of the lake sparkled.
Lu Yun stood aloof, hands crossed over his chest, quietly enjoying the show.
He had accidentally witnessed the previous scene, and could only watch covertly from a distance.
But now, he could watch the two compete openly.
Whether it was Meng Hongfei or Qin Yun, he couldn’t see through their realm.
Three months ago, Meng Hongfei was able to kill Transforming Origin Realm martial artists. Even if he isn’t in the Transforming Origin Realm yet, he can’t be far off now.
Watching a battle between two people with such strength should provide some insights.
At this moment, Meng Hongfei trembled and said with a strange expression, “I just remembered an errand that I need to do. Let’s postpone the fight for now, we will decide the winner on another day.”
After his words, he turned to Lu Yun and said, “Junior Brother Lu, we will catch up another day!” novelbuddy(.)com
With that, Meng Hongfei displayed his speed, turned into a white shadow, and quickly left.
“He left quickly, like he was running away. That’s not his usual style.”
Looking at the vanishing residual image, Qin Yun stroked his chin, narrowed his eyes, and seemed to be lost in thought.
As if sensing something, Qin Yun looked in the direction that Meng Hongfei had previously looked at.
His body shivered suddenly, then he also burst out with speed, chasing in the direction that Meng Hongfei had left.
“Junior Brother Lu, keep practicing. I’m looking forward to a good fight with you!”
The sound was still spreading by the lake, but Qin Yun’s figure had completely disappeared from Lu Yun’s sight.
“What are these two up to, disappearing on a whim and running so fast? Are they showing off their speed in front of me?”
Lu Yun murmured and was about to leave when he suddenly sensed someone quickly approaching.
It was a woman in white, with her long black hair draped naturally over her shoulders, with skin as white and smooth as White Jade. Under the sunlight, she had a crystalline luster. Her oval face and long eyelashes fluttering from time to time, with eyes that sparkled like crystals were captivating.
Seeing such a beautiful woman walking towards him, Lu Yun was somewhat puzzled and looked at her curiously.
As for the woman, seeing only Lu Yun present, besides surprise, there was also irritation, although she did not show it.
“Little Brother, are you alone here?”
The lady in white came over with a radiant smile on her face. Her eyes twinkled like they could speak, her lips vibrant red and tidy teeth white as pearls, were indeed captivating.
“Hello, Miss. It’s just me here.” Lu Yun smiled shyly. Despite having killed many people with his own hands, his bright eyes were clear and intense, giving an impression of cleanliness and purity that made him appear naive and rustic.
“For a shy little boy, you seem to be lying, and that’s not good!” The lady in white giggled, her eyes sparkling, and her white face glowed, making her appear even more charming.
Lu Yun scratched his head, looking wronged and said, “I’m not lying, I’m the only one here.”
Then he scanned the surroundings again to confirm he hadn’t lied earlier. When he saw the woman in front of him, he quickly corrected himself: “Oh, 1 was wrong. There’s now another person, that would be you.”
While he was speaking, his eyes rolled around, showing a clear look that naturally evoked trust and likeability.
However, in his heart he was thinking: “Meng Hongfei and Qin Yun left in quick succession, as if escaping. Could it have something to do with this woman?” 𝑓𝓇𝘦𝘦𝓌𝘦𝑏𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Suddenly, the woman in white moved. Her white dress fluttered and she seemed to teleport up close. Her pure white arm swung a palm strike towards Lu Yun, carrying a faint scent.
Lu Yun was startled, why did a casual conversation turn into a fight?
But his reflexes were swift, and he wasn’t the type to get hit without fighting back. As soon as he took action, the previous innocence and simplicity vanished, replaced by a sharp edge and fierceness.
Bang!
A strong aggressive aura exploded, causing the air to rumble. Lu Yun extended his right arm, drawing an elegant trace in the air. He gathered strength, and aimed to grasp at the gleaming jade-like arm of hers.
Just as he was about to touch it, a powerful force erupted, flinging Lu Yun backward, his feet scraping a long mark on the ground.
Lu Yun never imagined that such a beautiful woman would be so powerful, and he was unable to withstand even a casual palm strike.
After Lu Yun was blown away, the woman in white didn’t continue to attack. She simply smoothed her long, black hair, revealing her white, elf-like ears, and let out a charming smile.
“Little Brother, you mustn’t lie to me anymore. Although you are quite capable, you wouldn’t be able to handle me if 1 fully attacked.”
Lu Yun looked at the lady in white and said innocently, “I really didn’t lie, it’s only the two of us here now.”
The woman in white said nothing, but just wore a radiant smile, making Lu Yun uncomfortable.
Out of options, and inferior in strength, he could only pluck up his courage to say, “If I lie, may 1 be struck by five thunders!”
The lady in white chuckled and swept her autumn-water like eyes around.
Then she said half-jokingly, “Don’t tell me these signs of battle were caused by you alone. Besides, there are traces of sword Qi here.”
“Oh, 1 see!” Lu Yun responded with a delighted smile, then somewhat embarrassedly said, “Indeed, there were two people practicing their martial skills here before. But they have already left.”
Seeing the teasing smile on the woman’s face, Lu Yun quickly added, “1 swear 1 didn’t lie to you. There really are just the two of us here now..”
