The guard entered the city carrying a gigantic chest.
Lugh brought West-Resisting Citys soldiers over, most likely worried that the guard might seize the opportunity to do so damage within the city. But, how do I say it, as expected of the troops working under Bai Feng? Each and every one of them was imposing and impressive in appearance, walking down the road vigorously, creating wind. They were fully focused on the task at hand. After I pointed them in the direction of the City Lord mansion, the 50 people hurried over there in unison.
I smiled as I joked with Lugh:
See that?
Lugh scratched his head in embarrassnt, replying:
Yes.
I kicked his ***:
Since youve seen it, hurry up and go train, dont let other people pull the distance farther and farther away. Ill try to keep so of them behind and make them guide you a little. After all, theyre specialized in the field and you guys will be able to learn a lot.
Lugh nodded while saying understood.
After the guard saw the chest to the City Lord mansion, the majority of the guard stood waiting outside while the guard captain instructed two young n to lift the chest inside. At the center of the hall, the two young n simultaneously stooped down and placed down the chest, bowed to , then left the hall in order to wait outside as well. The only people left was the guard captain, Moon, , and Aleya and Felita who rushed over upon hearing the news.
Aleya displayed obvious vigilance towards this about 32 years-old guard captain. Although she didnt say it clearly, she showed it through her action of standing in between and him after entering, whether it be intentional or otherwise, and slightly wrinkled her brows. Aleyas strength was one level under his, so she was unable to perceive his concrete strength. However, she could faintly feel that the person in front of her was stronger than her and that she was unable to defeat him.
The guard captain was clearly aware of this slight action, but being the gentleman he was, he gave Aleya a courteous smile and introduced himself:
Let introduce myself, my na is Heji, an ordinary captain from the Yun Hai guard. Currently single, if there are any suitable candidates, I hope you can help introduce to them.
I patted Aleyas shoulder and told her:
Dont worry, this person isnt an enemy.
Heji sized Aleya up and acclaid:
From the looks of it, you havent even reached twenty as of this year, right? To reach such a realm in swordsmanship is not an easy feat. And its also a bit harder for girls to train in swords. You truly have boundless prospects for the future.
Aleya didnt lower her guard, but she did move aside a bit from my side. Though, her eyes were still firmly staring at Heji.
Feeling helpless, Heji directed a bitter laugh at :
Your guardis really loyal and devoted.
It was then that Aleya opened her mouth and asked briskly:
What realm were you when you were 16 years-old?
Heji froze for a few seconds before speaking in reminiscence:
Yeah, I was also a Level 5 Swordsman. I tread into the realm of Level 6 Swordsman when I was 22 years-old and its been 10 years since.
It was only then that Aleya relaxed a little.
I felt the situation to be funny in my heart. Heji was probably the first young yet strong swordsman that Aleya had t, so she was probably feeling anxious that she wouldnt be able to catch up to him. I patted Aleya on the shoulder again and remarked:
Relax. Ill ask Heji in a bit if he can give you so pointers, all you need to do is learn from him well.
Aleya heavily nodded her head.
Felita appeared a bit envious.
Presently, Felitas realm was on par with Aleyas; one was a Level 5 Sorcerer while the other was a Level 5 Swordsman. In terms of actual combat, Felita was stronger by so, but the issue was that masters in swordsmanship were very easy to find while masters in sorcery were much harder to find. Aleya had the option to ask Heji for guidance, but there was nobody here that Felita could consult for sorcery help. She had no choice but to gloss over uninteresting docunts, test findings, and practice successful findings.
I changed the topic by inquiring Heji:
Did Bai Feng say anything about what he was gifting ?
Heji shook his head, handing over a key. I took the key, walked over to the chest, then struck it twice. After I was sure that there were no hidden chanisms inside, I couldnt help but to start fantasizing.
I wonder whats inside this thing?
Gold coins? If its gold coins, then theres at least several hundred of them inside.
But Bai Feng isnt such an unrefined person, so its probably not gold coins. Then what else could it be? Yun Hai is right by the sea, so maybe its so precious items from the sea like Blood Jade Coral, Dragons Beard Wine, or so other specialty product. If thats the case, then Im rich! Regardless of whether I use it myself or sell it off, Ill be able to live without worries1
The more I thought, the more beautiful my dreams beca and the longer I forgot to turn the key.
After I thought with a clearer mind, I realized that this was originally an unexpected windfall. Even though it was wrong for Little Huang to stand up at the ti, Bai Feng had already apologized for her behavior. So regardless of what was inside, it was him showing kindly intentions. The thing a person is never supposed to do is disdain another persons kindly intentions. No matter what, you couldnt grumble about wanting sothing better if another person sent you as a gift, since that would show how ungrateful of a person you were.
Therefore, even if it really is a chest full of gold coins, Ill gladly endure this hardship.
Kindly intentions! A goose feather sent from afar is also kindly intentions and the contents of this chest is much heavier than goose feathers. No matter whats inside, I, Li De, will receive it today!
Once I made up my mind, I turned the key and went to open the chest.
Without waiting for to do anything, the chests cover pop-ed open by itself and a shadow flashed out. Just as I was about to curse ****, Bai Feng, did you send a gift or a concealed hidden weapon, I heard a familiar voice:
What the heck! Why did it take you such a long ti to open the chest, you nearly suffocated to death.
Little Huangor more accurate, Bai Huang. She was standing inside the chest with both arms on her waist, watching with anger.
Seeing blankly staring, she blinked her eyes and unhappily said:
What, do you not welco or what? This young lady is telling you, coming over to your place to play is giving you face.
I looked at her for three seconds before adopting a smiley face and questioning:
Little Huang, how did you fit yourself into such a small chest?
Little Huang was puzzled at my words as she returned:
Small? Its quite spacious, Look, theres still a lot of room when I squat down like this
Without waiting for her to finish her words, in that instant she squatted down, I slam dunked the chest cover.
Then rapidly locked it.
I wiped away the sweat on my forehead and told Heji:
Return the rchandise.
Yun Hai() has the character for sea(). It technically translates to Sea of Clouds/Cloud Sea.
