Chapter 1101: Chapter 181: Hidden Clans, Imminent Danger, and Yi Nanping (Double-Length)
The delicate-featured woman sat casually on the bed, and Hu Xuan’er dared not be negligent, half-kneeling on the ground, her head lowered, she spoke softly: “Master, this ti the matter could not be accomplished, disciple…”
The woman coughed slightly, waved her hand, and sighed:
“This matter cannot be blad on you.”
“Even as your Master, didn’t I just get pinned down by that Taoist as soon as he appeared? His movent technique is as graceful as a startled swan, like a wandering dragon, truly formidable…”
Hu Xuan’er’s heartbeat couldn’t help but accelerate slightly.
During this period, the army had set out, not entering the city, only setting up camp with the troops. She hadn’t found ti to discuss matters in detail with her Master. At this mont, hearing her Master ntion the young Taoist from that day, she couldn’t help but speak softly:
“That Taoist really…”
The woman nodded, sighed:
“Judging by his accomplishnts in Taoist Sect’s Vigorous Qi, I’ve never seen soone stronger. With such a thod, he must be an absolute Grandmaster. However, I don’t know when such a peerless talent appeared in the Taoist Sect of Great Qin, and we received no information at all.”
“Moreover, he was also wearing that mask on his face.”
Even though a month had passed, there was still a tremor in the woman’s eyes. She had not told Hu Xuan’er that on that day, the Taoist had subdued her with just a raise of his hand, a feat not obtainable by an ordinary Grandmaster.
Although an ordinary Grandmaster has unparalleled capabilities, she herself possessed an ancient Divine Weapon. Though the Qi chanism had almost entirely dissipated over the long ages, so still remained, allowing her to perform Grandmaster-level techniques.
The Qi chanism flowed like thunder and lightning, albeit suddenly brief.
But that Taoist raised his hand clearly with slow movents, she could clearly see every trajectory and direction of his actions, yet by the ti she realized what had happened, that fair hand had gently landed on her shoulder.
And in front of her, the Taoist, gentle as jade, was softly smiling.
Recalling this again after a month.
The woman still showed faint fear in her eyes, imdiately suppressing her emotions to prevent further spreading, fearing that if she dwelled even a breath longer, she would lose all her courage and completely give up on this matter, she said:
“In any case, perhaps there is a hidden force erging in the Jianghu.”
“At their ergence, at least two mbers can unleash techniques nearing or even surpassing that of a Grandmaster. We cannot underestimate them. I will fully report this matter. You need to be cautious and vigilant in Parthia as well.”
“Although that masked man seems not to bear malice toward us, tis change. Chances are you will still encounter them in Parthia. If that day truly cos, rember, do not act rashly, with caution being the priority.”
Hu Xuan’er naturally agreed to everything.
Thinking a bit, just as she was about to tell her Master about the night when her seemingly invincible Poison Skill seed to et its nesis during her encounter with that person, she saw the woman in front of her sigh, her expression slightly vacant, and said:
“He said, they…”
“This organization, with such thods, how many are there?”
Hu Xuan’er’s voice montarily faltered, recalling the sword light slicing through as though splitting waves, invincible, and powerful like thunder breaking through the sky, forced a smile, said:
“It’s impossible for there to be many Grandmasters in the world.”
“Disciple reckons, these two are perhaps the strongest in this organization, and their appearance is rely to make an astonishing impact, henceforth undertaking such a great endeavor.”
The delicate-featured woman sighed softly, said:
“If that’s the case, that would be good.”
Hu Xuan’er showed a determined smile, but in truth, she had no confidence in her heart.
Are those two truly the most formidable individuals in that organization?
She turned her head, gazing at the windowsill. The window opened, outside the night sky was pitch-black, only faintly revealing the sparse and distant starlight, making the night even more oppressive.
She thought of the now nearly decayed corpse of King Balman, feeling an overwhelming sense of oppression, making it almost difficult to breathe, akin to those youthful days cultivating in deep mountains and dense forests, seeing the sky obscured by thick rain clouds, unaware of how fierce, how heavy the rain might be, or when it would fall.
She imdiately thought of the instigator who caused all this.
Unable to help biting her lip, her heart rising with extre vigilance.
That dangerous and crazy fellow, must be hiding in so corner, closely watching the changes in Balman City, perhaps triumphantly, or preparing for the next step in the plan.
……
In King Balman’s Royal Palace, as always, lights were brightly lit.
The Great Prince, upon entering the city, after slight demurring, made no pretense and stayed in the Jiangnan-style Royal Mansion built with an unknown expenditure of gold.
And the Second Prince did not contend with him, as if suddenly becoming the obedient and timid brother the Great Prince wished for, docilely staying at his residence in Balman Royal City.
That was a courtyard located in the south of the city.
The architectural style precisely that which one would expect of the Parthian Empire.
Vast and ancient in style, square and rectangular structures, giant stone blocks with the color and texture resembling the desert sands.
In appearance very similar to King Balman, yet with much more delicate features around the eyes, the Second Prince exchanged his armor and hunting attire for loose howear, his slightly curled black hair bound by a headband, revealing a pair of clear eyes.
