437: Chapter 4 Martial Arts Legend, Chi Xiao Sword Sound 437: Chapter 4 Martial Arts Legend, Chi Xiao Sword Sound When Li Guanyi’s gaze landed on her, the girl wearing the hood naturally withdrew her hand.
Then she lightly hopped back two steps, creating so distance.
She clasped her hands in front of her, with the hood covering her features, revealing only a slight flutter of her hair.
It was Shaking Light.
Her voice was as ever tranquil, saying, “You’ve arrived.”
“I’ve been waiting for you for quite so ti.”
Li Guanyi was first delighted, but after hearing the girl’s second sentence, he thought Shaking Light might be slightly teasing him for being a bit late.
However, looking at the silver-haired girl’s face, it remained devoid of any emotion.
Li Guanyi shook his gourd with a smile, saying, “I was just wondering when I might encounter you, and here you are now, safe and sound.” He took a drink of rice wine, hung the gourd at his waist, and the girl walked alongside him as the two found a tea house.
They parked the ox cart outside and then headed upstairs.
Li Guanyi ordered a pot of tea and a few snacks.
Upon ascending the stairs, he naturally took a look around and saw that there were already patrons in the tea house—a young master in his twenties wearing a brocade robe accompanied by two beautiful won, one holding a sword and the other a zither.
Seemingly disinterested in the other guests of the town, he sat alone by the window.
The two lovely attendants laid silk cloth on the table, with their own food and tea sets.
They had only this one window sill to enjoy the view.
Seeing Li Guanyi in his freshly laundered white Taoist robe and the girl in simple traveler’s clothes, the others did not pay much attention, simply minding their own business, drinking tea, and enjoying the view.
Li Guanyi paused mid-step.
He felt sothing in his abdon quiver—the Eternal Moon Undying Body Golden Core he had just solidified.
The young master in the brocade robe also felt a tremor and looked up.
Li Guanyi’s expression remained calm and serene.
He controlled the Golden Core within him.
This sensation, was it because this brocade-robed young master also practiced the sa cultivation technique?
No, it didn’t seem like it…
It was a Martial Arts skill originating from the sa source.
Was it from Hou Zhongyu’s crazy Grandmaster, or the Martial Arts Legend in a green robe?
Li Guanyi composed himself, sitting down with Shaking Light.
After the snacks arrived, the young Taoist pushed so towards the girl across from him, asking, “How have you been these past few days?”
“And your aunt?”
Shaking Light glanced at the snacks, then without touching them, replied in a calm voice, “After leaving the city, we’ve been traveling, enjoying the mountains and waters.”
Li Guanyi grinned.
Though he himself had been part of the vortex in the Martial World and Court during this ti.
His journey had also been a violent struggle.
Shaking Light and her aunt, on the other hand, seed to have had a leisurely ti.
The silver-haired girl said, “As for my aunt…”
She carefully took a snack with both hands, bit into it slowly, chewed thoughtfully,
And then swallowed.
Only then did she proceed slowly, “I’ve hidden her well, with no one able to find her without leading the way, so she’s safe.
Then I ca out looking for you.”
Li Guanyi did not ask Shaking Light how she had managed to find him.
He knew she would probably talk about so destined agreent.
Now that he had reunited with Shaking Light, and knowing that his aunt was safe, the tension constantly present at the bottom of Li Guanyi’s heart finally loosened slightly.
He just passed snacks to Shaking Light while making small talk.
Afterward would be the reunion with his aunt.
According to Shaking Light, it was only a few days’ journey, which wasn’t too long.
Given Shaking Light’s speed, perhaps she had left the place after settling her aunt down.
The closer they got to Zhenbei City, the more complex and nurous the forces of the Martial World beca.
The journey for the girl must not have been easy.
Just as Shaking Light had taken a few bites, Li Guanyi heard a commotion outside.
The brocade-robed young master also frowned slightly.
Footsteps were heavy and rapid as a group of big n rushed up the stairs.
Their eyes quickly fixed on Li Guanyi’s table, and they headed over with strides.
As he drank his tea, Li Guanyi thought to himself how troubleso affairs of the Martial World were, as the approaching group set their sights on the long-haired Li Nu’er, who was devouring snacks nearby.
“My brocade-furred rat beca immobile at the sight of this cat, suggesting it’s an exotic breed,” one man declared.
“Taoist!
That cat belongs to our Divine Beast Manor—she escaped, and to my surprise, you’ve taken her.
Leave the animal behind, knock your head on the floor thrice in submission, and this grandpa will let you off the hook.
Otherwise, you’ll be in for trouble!” the man threatened.
Li Guanyi looked at the Qilin, thinking to himself, “Can’t you be a bit more discreet?”
The Qilin kept eating the snacks.
Responding, “Ow-wooo, ow-wooo, does a tiger hold back for the sake of a sheep?”
A reply filled with wild instinct and naturalness.
“Ow-wooo, this stuff is really good.”
The long-haired cat didn’t even lift its head, while the silver-haired girl looked on curiously at the Exotic Beast, extending a finger to gently touch the Qilin—first carefully touching then imdiately retreating, before finally letting her guard down and slowly stroking it.
What nobody except Li Guanyi was allowed to touch, the Qilin, was not rejecting Shaking Light’s touch at this mont.
The girl’s eyes were filled with curiosity and focus.
Seeing that Li Guanyi did not respond, the big n from Divine Beast Manor struck out in great anger.
This group of n—unlike the underlings Li Guanyi had previously encountered—possessed so Martial Arts skills, with their leader reaching the realm of Second Layer Heaven.
The mont they attacked it was with lethal force.
Li Guanyi, sitting on the bench, rely swung his sheathed pine pattern ancient sword and kept the n at bay, unable to get near.
One of the big n lost balance and began falling towards the snacks on the table and the Qilin Cat.
If the Qilin were to counterattack, its identity would surely be exposed, and the snacks would undoubtedly be crushed.
Suddenly, there seed to be a flash of light.
The big n knocked into each other, each one unleashing their full strength and knocking one another down.
Within an instant, all of them were on the ground, unconscious, without having touched the table.
The silver-haired girl continued to gingerly stroke the Qilin Cat.
