Xia Hua was an extrely beautiful woman. Since her transformation to her real self, her real appearance which would make every man kneel to beco her lackey. However, this kind of woman who was filled with the air of extre yin qi thus appearing very cold was like a beast that would imdiately attack the mont he made a mistake—for example, moving against her adoptive father.
But where did this kind of woman co from?
The two subordinates who were much stronger than Envoy Lu Han were also scared witless. However, they were more worried about Envoy Lu Han's present condition. He actually fainted!
Envoy Lu Han was one of those never-before-seen geniuses and truly could not be underestimated. In fact, he was hailed as one of the Top 10 Irregulars of the Four Regions, the topmost geniuses recognized by the mysterious Nine Harmonies Pagoda!
Apart from that, the Top 100 Peculiars were also imprinted on the stele that stood atop the pagoda, along with the Top 10!
"Lord… Young Master!" the old man in black anxiously said as he caught Envoy Lu Han in his arms. He then used his own qi essence to calm the agitation inside Envoy Lu Han's heart. Although he was unconscious, his qi was in chaos and had almost reached his heart.
"Young Master!" Only then did the other old man in black react after a while, struck by the pressure that Xia Hua exuded. He quickly sped to the unconscious Envoy Lu Han and imdiately assisted the other old man.
"Young Master?" Xia Hua and Xia Zhiguang reacted in unison, their eyes showing surprise.
"What happened?" Another old man appeared with a gourd in one hand, his face calr than the sea.
Xia Hua had long noticed that this old man had already sped up to this place. She was not taken aback and only threw a perfunctory look at the old man. "It seems like your esteed self is the guardian sent by the Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order to guard this Lord Envoy," she comnted, hinting at sothing.
She already noticed that this Envoy Lu Han's identity was not so simple. Just by how they called him "Young Master" already magnified this presumption, even more so by the reaction and the gazes of these three old n.
"Higher Elder Chu!" the two old n exclaid as they cupped their hands in front of this old man, only after they settled Envoy Lu Han's matter.
However, Higher Elder Chu only nodded at them and looked at Xia Hua with a burning gaze. He was not afraid of her strength nor was he attracted by her extrely enchanting looks—he was just very angry as to what happened to Envoy Lu Han.
The two old n broke out in cold sweat as they felt the murderous aura emitted by Higher Elder Chu. Although they were not the target this ti, they really felt like they were caught in a cage, unable to breathe.
"Lady, have you realized what you did? Do you know who Young Master is?" the old man glaringly said, his aura slowly rising.
Even Xia Hua revealed a troubled look. It seed like he underestimated this old man who was always looking out for her presence. Although he was only an Inferiora, she could feel that he was very strong!
However, Xia Hua had not t an opponent before and his father or the others could barely catch up to the speed of her cultivation, so she really did not regard any of her companions to beco worthy opponents.
"I know, he is the Young Master of the Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order, right?" Xia Hua hit the mark that the old man was temporarily put in a daze.
He then realized sothing as he turned to look at the two old n. "Did the two of you reveal the na of the Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order? Even the people in the Autonomous Region did not know the true na of our organization? Do you think you'll be let off—"
"We sincerely apologize, Higher Elder Chu! However, it is not us who told them about the Order, it was the Young Master himself!"
"Young Master actually took the initiative to tell them? Why?" Higher Elder Chu asked in confusion.
"We also don't know, Higher Elder Chu! The Young Master's mind… we don't know him at all!" the other old man said.
"Hmph! No matter what! Those who have heard of the Order's na will be killed without rcy!"
Xia Hua's face blackened. She did not realize that the situation really got out of hand. The Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order was actually very secretive about its real na. "Just for this? You are going to kill us?"
Her tone gradually thickened like ice as her eyes sharpened.
Higher Elder Chu's eyes constricted as he looked at Xia Hua in disbelief. Her strength was actually out of his league. The weight of her aura was even heavier than his! To say he was strong already, would be a joke in front of her might.
As he looked at Envoy Lu Han, who was the Young Master of the Order, he felt bitter.
On the other hand, the other disciples of the sect felt very suffocated by the rising aura. They felt like their heart grew cold and their breaths were shortened by a gap—they could even barely move their bodies!
The sect grounds quaked. Even the room where Envoy Lu Han was staying started to crumble.
Strong! Very Strong!
Higher Elder Chu's killing intent was stumped and did not dare make a move. Although he was strong, he couldn't see through Xia Hua at all. This woman who seed to be of the sa age as Young Master Lu Han or even younger had already grown to beco this strong!
How was this possible?!
However, Xia Hua imdiately retracted her aura and smiled at Higher Elder Chu. That smile she showed was sothing that was not really a smile at all. It seed like she was trying to beckon him to kill himself.
Xia Hua had surmised that the old man was strong due to the cautious personality that she adapted from Yang Lujia. However, she was not willing to be just trampled by sobody. That was not sothing she would never like even if that was Yang Lujia's personality.
"I don't know anything about your Order. You don't have to worry about spreading a word about it. As for the Heavenly Selection, go on with it. This lady won't interfere as long as you won't make it hard for my Yang Supre Sect. When His Highness cos back, I won't say a matter of this to him. However, His Highness is all-knowing. He might even read my mind with just one look."
When Higher Elder Chu heard Xia Hua's first sentences, he could only heave a sigh and compromise. It seed like Xia Hua was not one of them due to the density of her extre yin qi and if she really was an enemy, she would have never spared them—especially the son of the Order's Lord!
He was smart. He naturally grasped everything about it.
However, when he heard her last sentences, his rarely-shaken heart was thawed. "His Highness?"
Sect Master Xia, who was previously in a daze, imdiately replied and said, "Yes, His Highness is all mighty and all-knowing! Even Saint Emperors like my daughter, Xia Hua, were subdued by him!"
Hearing her father say this, Xia Hua blushed, especially after recalling 'that' flawless face of his. She was extrely embarrassed by herself and disappeared without a trace.
On the other hand, Xia Zhiguang smiled wily as though he hit her daughter's soft spot. anwhile, Higher Elder Chu went numb after seeing Xia Hua's reaction.
That incomparably powerful young woman called Xia Hua was actually subdued by a man?!
That cold woman?!
How was that possible?!
She was already very strong herself! She might be on par with their Lord of Order!
However, what he was curious about was this His Highness that he heard from Sect Master Xia. Therefore, he tried to probe into the details and asked Xia Zhiguang.
Xia Zhiguang felt elated and narrated all the remarkable things he witnessed that His Highness did. "You don't know how powerful His Highness was! Just his gaze could kill my daughter, Xia Hua! Not because she had feelings for him, but because he was ridiculously strong! Your Autonomous Region, he might be able to destroy it with a wave of his hand!"
GASP!
Higher Elder Chu did not dare believe what he heard. If this was true, then wouldn't this "His Highness" they were referring to soone coming from either of the two temples? He actually tried to probe and offend soone high and mighty like that? With just him, barely even touching the threshold of the Saint Emperor Realm?
Was he joking?
Just who was this "His Highness"?
"Whether you believe or not, we don't care. His Highness is extrely reclusive but he said that he would outshine this realm soon with his light! He left not long ago. I don't know what His Highness was doing, but it could be sothing very important and sothing that would shake the core of Da Shikong!"
When Higher Elder Chu heard this, he even had the urge to scoff, because, at this mont, he really did not believe it either! However, with Xia Hua's silence, approving of this matter, he thought as he looked at the gourd he was holding, 'What have I been doing all these years?'
When he rembered how he just postured in front of Xia Hua earlier, he could not help but feel sha.
