Even without seeing her face, one could tell her deanor was quite extraordinary.
Won change at eighteen?
The most important thing was, An Ning previously had no knowledge of cultivation, nor any defensive abilities.
But just now, until she appeared behind him, he had not sensed her presence, this level of movent technique...
Was this still the An Ning he knew?
"Brother Tang Fei..."
The woman in black called out softly.
Tang Fei was certain now, she was An Ning.
Whether in the Old Land or in New Star, only she liked to call him that.
"It’s really you?" Tang Fei squinted and smiled, looking at An Ning’s still clear eyes, he said, "Your change is too great, I hardly dared recognize you."
"No matter how I change... I’ve always been the An Ning you know." An Ning explained, seemingly afraid that Tang Fei might ’dislike’ her changes.
She didn’t want there to be any distance between herself and Tang Fei.
Especially since... distance had already made them strangers to each other, no longer the familiar and close figures of the past.
"Have you started cultivating? When did this happen?" Tang Fei asked curiously.
An Ning looked uncomfortable and asked, "Didn’t master tell you?"
"Master? Who is your master?"
"..."
An Ning hesitated on whether to tell Tang Fei.
She had promised her master not to tell anyone about her cultivation.
But this was Tang Fei...
Oh, Tang Fei was the master’s godson, which ant he was family, telling him shouldn’t matter.
Thus, An Ning replied, "It’s godfather..."
"The old man?"
"He is my master." An Ning nodded and said, "Master has been teaching the Array Formation and Talisman, claiming they originate from a divine book, nad ’Lu Ban’s Book of Death.’"
"Master said, this book is divided into two parts, the first consists of Array Formation and Talisman, all being deceitful and mysterious thods. The second part involves chanical Hidden Weapons, essentially the art of strengthening the military and governing the nation."
"He has passed on to you the first part’s Array Formation and Talisman, and the second part’s chanical Hidden Weapons to you... What I used just now was the ’Nine Provinces Footstep Spell,’ silent upon landing, tracing no footprints in the snow."
Just like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, An Ning spilled all her secrets.
Essentially playing the card of having no secrets between them.
"So that’s it." Tang Fei was profoundly shocked.
Not only shocked at An Ning’s eagerness to learn and her current achievents.
But more shocked by the old man’s strategic capabilities, he had started teaching An Ning teachings from ’Lu Ban’s Book of Death’ long ago and even let her infiltrate the Fla Shrine using the talismanic thods from the book.
Could it be that he had already predicted years ago that they would co back...
What kind of scheming was this?
The Imperial Double Wall, truly worthy of their reputation.
Back then, his father had been invincible in battle, achieving great military honors and accomplishnts, the old man’s contributions were indispensable, right?
After his father was killed, the old man refused the recruitnt from the Imperial Family and resolutely brought him to the Old Land...
What kind of brotherly love was that?
An Ning’s eyes shimred as she looked towards Tang Fei and said, "Brother Tang Fei, you finally ca back."
"Mm." Tang Fei avoided her direct gaze and said, "There’s sothing I need to ask you."
"Brother Tang Fei, my life was saved by you, if it weren’t for your intervention, both my mother and I would have died long ago."
"So, just say whatever you need, don’t speak of trouble in front of ..."
"That’s too distant, I don’t want to hear it, and it displeases ."
An Ning spoke seriously.
Tang Fei was silent for a mont, then nodded and said, "Alright, then I won’t stand on ceremony with you."
"You know, we are currently establishing a base in Hateshan, but we are short on food... So, can you arrange so food from the Fla Shrine?"
An Ning looked at Tang Fei, puzzled and asked, "Just the food?"
"What do you an?"
"Brother Tang Fei, I’m ready... to give you the entire Fla Shrine."
"..."
