These words caused a brief silence to fall over the room.
Lyman, Zhuang Zhuliu, and Bai Yuan immediately looked up.
Not far away, a graceful figure in a white dress stood quietly.
Her arrival seemed to have added a lot of beauty to this place.
"Who...is this person?"
Lyman's breath hitched, and his fists clenched instinctively.
She clenched her fist so tightly that her fingers almost sank into her palm, until a thin layer of blood appeared, but she still seemed not to hear it.
As masters, they are mutually attracted by each other's aura.
Faced with this woman who had suddenly appeared, Lyman was surprised to find...
Her breathing actually became disordered because of this woman's appearance!
What does this tell us?
This shows that this woman's abilities far surpass his own!
But how is that possible?
Lyman had never heard of such a master in the world!
The combination of sword and curse between her and Zhuang Zhuliu is already unmatched in the world.
There are only a handful of experts in this world who can reach their level.
A master who can completely overwhelm you with just their aura is definitely not an unknown nobody!
But he had never seen this person before.
Where did it come from?
"The plan has changed; this woman is very likely Xia Che's backup plan..."
With a whoosh, Zhuang Zhuliu's longsword was slightly drawn from its sheath, half an inch. He held it with one hand, his knuckles almost bursting from his skin.
He has practiced swordsmanship for decades; the sword is an integral part of his life, one could even say it is his very life.
Throughout these decades, Zhuang Zhuliu's sword-wielding hand has always been dry.
He has an almost obsessive, demanding standard for himself in this regard.
Zhuang Zhuliu would rather be killed than hold his beloved sword with wet hands if his hands were not dry.
But now, this life principle that he has adhered to for decades has been broken because of the appearance of a woman.
Zhuang Zhuliu had no choice but to comply.
His sixth sense was screaming a warning: if he dared not wield his sword, he risked losing his head in an instant!
He dares not gamble!
However, the pressure that Su Miaorou brought him was too strong. This kind of pressure, like an apocalyptic tsunami, was enough to crush anyone. Even though Zhuang Zhuliu tried his best to overcome it with courage, his physical performance did not lie.
His hands were already soaked with cold sweat.
"Junior sister?"
The twins scoffed without even raising their heads, finding the nickname extremely sarcastic, and said, "What, finally decided to come out? No longer a coward?"
"Since you've brought so many people, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to pretend I don't know."
Su Miaorou slowly walked forward, her stunningly beautiful face exposed to the eyes of the remaining people.
In an instant, the entire audience erupted in uncontrollable gasps.
None of them expected that this woman, who looked like an ethereal being, would actually have a connection with Gemini.
These two people who seem to be fellow disciples...
It seems like the relationship is quite strained.
"If I remember correctly, the Gemini were already famous seniors twenty or thirty years ago, but... why do these two look so much like high school students?"
Lyman's eyes gleamed with an incomprehensible light: "Does such a thing as eternal youth really exist in this world?"
She felt like her worldview had collapsed.
It's not surprising that someone might possess extraordinary skills and combat abilities that are difficult for ordinary people to comprehend, because Lyman himself was considered a superman by ordinary people.
But the thing about eternal youth is that she hasn't aged at all over the past few decades, and even looks like a high school student...
There's simply no way to explain this.
Even with the magical power of cosmetics, aging is inevitable as bodily functions decline with the passage of time.
In this respect, no amount of cosmetics or so-called plastic surgery will help.
These two women...
His true identity must be extraordinary!
But which sect do they belong to?
Lyman had never heard of it!
"So what if you stay young forever? My master is a true immortal on land!"
Suddenly, a clear laugh echoed on the mountaintop, and then Xia Che walked out from behind Su Miaorou with a leisurely air.
To be honest, a blond guy suddenly popped out from behind a woman who looked as aloof as an immortal.
This scene was somewhat of a spoilsport.
But it made most of the people present's eyes light up.
All because Xia Che is their target!
The Gemini's reward for killing him is so generous that it's impossible to refuse, driving people crazy!
"The people who want to kill me... are you? Hmm, Master, I've never heard of you having a junior sister. She seems to hate you quite a bit, but why is my grudge being dragged into this? I told you I haven't provoked anyone, so why am I suddenly being hunted down?"
Xia Che stroked his chin, his expression indignant: "Now that I think about it, wasn't it her doing that the Xia family suddenly abandoned me in the country?"
Really...
When you're down on your luck, even drinking cold water can cause problems.
What did I do to deserve this?
It was clearly a feud from the master's generation, but it ended up affecting him.
He ruined his life, leaving him unable to live the life of a proper young master and instead spending his days like a loser, fooling around in Jiang City.
It could even be said that if it weren't for his soul transmigrating into this body, the original owner would probably have been hacked to death in some corner of Jiang City long ago.
"That's certainly possible."
Su Miaorou nodded thoughtfully.
The master and apprentice stood there chatting as if no one else was around, completely ignoring the densely packed assassins in the room, treating them as if they were invisible.
While a large number of ants can certainly kill an elephant, what if Su Miaorou is someone stronger than an elephant?
In the face of absolute power, quantity is useless.
"But I have a question, Master. Since she is your junior sister, shouldn't she be younger than you?"
Xia Che suddenly realized something, and a malicious smile appeared on his lips.
"Ten years younger than me."
Su Miaorou didn't understand Xia Che's meaning, but she still answered honestly.
"That shouldn't be the case. Even with all that makeup on, people can still tell she's not young. It's completely different from your natural beauty, Master. At least if we walked down the street, many people would definitely think we were siblings, or even that she looked younger than me."
Xia Che raised an eyebrow, his mischievous smile deepening: "Master, are you sure she's your junior sister, and not some kind of senior uncle or something?"
"What did you say?!"
As soon as he said this, Xia Che achieved his goal. The twins, who had kept their heads down, immediately raised them and glared angrily at Xia Che.
But upon looking at it, Gemini suddenly froze.
"Why...why haven't you gotten old?"
The twins' fingers, pointing at Su Miaorou, began to tremble slightly, their voices filled with disbelief.
