Chapter 57: The Little Witch
"Are you calling me?"
A calm voice sounded, and the veiled woman's body trembled slightly. She lowered her head involuntarily. She didn't know how to answer such words. If she still spoke arrogantly when she knew that the other party was stronger than her, it would be stupid!
"Yeah no, I"
The latter's eyes were evasive and her voice was so low that even the maid beside her couldn't hear her clearly.
However, Yan Ruchen's "arrogant" answer angered several cultivators around him. One of the tall and mighty cultivators even threw a punch in anger, trying to knock the former down.
Bang!
A shaking sound was heard, followed by the warrior's miserable wail, "My hand, my hand! Help!"
"Dry tongue!"
A faint voice came from under the mask again, and then a piece of snowflakes appeared on the warrior's mouth, and he could only make a "woooo" sound.
It was not until this time that everyone reacted and looked over, all with fear on their faces. They saw that the right fist that the warrior had just swung was now frozen into an ice ball, with blood and flesh inside, as if it had been stabbed by ice cones.
At once, countless screams rang out, echoing on this floor. The onlookers all began to flee, fearing that Yan Ruchen would be unhappy and vent his anger on them.
Soon, apart from the strong man lying on the ground, there were only the veiled woman and her maid, and the flattering servant who had appeared when Yan Ruchen first came in.
"Why don't you leave?"
Yan Ruchen asked, and the servant beside him was startled and quickly replied: "Just now I took the initiative to receive you. According to the rules, I cannot leave here without your order before you leave."
The former raised the corner of his mouth slightly and chuckled, then looked at the veiled woman in front of him who was trembling slightly, and the maid with an arrogant look on her face.
He took down the suspended spirit sword, weighed it, and felt the very faint chill on it. He curled his lips in disdain, stretched out his right hand, and the strange smile on the mask seemed to come alive:
"Since this is the first time I've met you, I won't bother with your rudeness. This spirit sword of yours will be your apology to me! Give me the scabbard."
Hearing this, the maid immediately became anxious and was about to slap Yan Ruchen, frightening the veiled woman next to her. She quickly grabbed the maid and handed over the scabbard with both hands:
"It was my fault before. You have the final say over this sword. It is my apology! I hope that what happened today will be forgotten and we can just pretend that it never happened."
"Miss, this is your sword and your birthday gift. How can you just give it away?"
"Shut up! Do you want me to teach you how to do things? Why don't you apologize to this young master?!"
The maid wanted to argue again, but when she saw the blue light flashing under her lady's veil and felt the sudden drop in temperature around her, she shuddered and said, lowering her head:
"I'm sorry, I was abrupt."
Yan Ruchen shook his head and said teasingly:
"Come on, how can you be wrong? It's my fault! I don't know who your young lady is! I don't know who is behind you! I don't know how powerful you are! How can I accept your apology!"
"I am just an ordinary practitioner. If I accept your apology, won't I be in trouble with the forces behind your young lady?"
Hearing this, the woman's face changed under the veil and she asked, "What else do you want?"
Yan Ruchen looked at the veiled woman in front of him and suddenly said, "I am an upright person and never flatter others. My request is very simple. I accept the compensation, but I still owe you an apology."
"Of course you don't need to apologize, as long as..."
"Just for what?" The woman's breathing stagnated, and she was a little worried that the conditions proposed by Yan Ruchen might be beyond her ability.
"As long as you help me kill one person,"
Quiet!
The sounds around suddenly became quiet. Even those who had been observing from a distance, or those who had been picking things and spying on them with their ears perked up, all stopped what they were doing.
Yan Ruchen didn't care about their changes. Since his master wanted him to represent the "Source Sect" to attend the meeting of all sects, he had to get an invitation. But this was too difficult. After all, it was issued by the Demon Hunting Group. With his strength, he really couldn't get one.
Then we have no choice but to use another way, which is to passively participate in the meetings of various sects.
The woman was silent for a moment, then asked, "Who is it?"
"hiss!"
Many people around gasped. Is she going to agree? !
This woman who claims to be the little devil of Yuji Pavilion, the sister of the deputy leader of Yuji Pavilion, the woman with an ice crystal spirit body, actually bowed her head!
Many people looked at Yan Ruchen with changed eyes. At least over the years, there were only a handful of people who could make her change. And this unknown masked man in front of them could actually do this!
Yan Ruchen touched his chin, then took out a piece of paper, wrote a few words on it with his spiritual energy, folded it and handed it to her: "Read it after you go back. I hope you can do what you say."
With a grab of his left hand, a scabbard appeared in his hand, and with his right hand, as smooth as flowing water, he inserted the sword back into the scabbard.
“Hiss! Ah~”
Along with the sound of friction between the scabbard and the sword body, there was also a trembling sound, as if something was entering the body from the bottom to the top, making people tremble uncontrollably.
Yan Ruchen ignored the looks from the people around him and calmly put away the spirit sword in his hand. He didn't even ask the name of the sword and said, "Just take me to the second floor. The first floor doesn't have what I want."
Upon hearing this, the servant at the beginning hurried forward to lead the way. Apart from anything else, if he could leave a good impression on Yan Ruchen, he might be employed by him in the future, and that would mean he had barely managed to get a strong supporter.
Maybe there won't be many benefits, but at least life will be a little better.
"Please wait a moment!"
Just after taking two steps, another crisp voice came from behind, and the former stopped: "What's the matter?"
"I don't even know your name yet?"
"name?"
The former was silent for a moment, then said calmly: "Yuan Chen."
"Source Dust"
The woman muttered something and was about to say something when she realized that the former had already walked up to the second floor of the Treasure Pavilion. She couldn't help but sigh.
"Miss, if you ask me, with your identity and status, you don't have to be afraid of anyone! No matter how fierce he is, he dares to fight you!" The maid at the side began to chatter again, and the resentment on her face almost made the maid think that she had suffered a great injustice.
Thinking of this, his face darkened and he said, "When you go back, go and accept the punishment yourself. You will be grounded for a month!"
"Miss?!" The maid widened her eyes in disbelief, confusion and shock slowly forming in her heart.
