Cai Wei turned around abruptly, only to see snow-laden mountains stretching out in all directions.
A gentle mountain breeze rustled the verdant pines and cypresses.
From within the forests, a man dressed in an azure robe with a jade belt and a golden crown, was walking on the snow towards her.
The man was wearing a white fox fur coat, tall and magnificent, graceful and elegant.
Backed by a mountain of snow, he arrived unhurriedly.
Every step he took was filled with an indescribable grace and charm.
It was so extraordinary that it made the mountain lose its beauty, the sun and the moon lose their splendor.
Even though she had rich experiences and had seen countless handsome men from both domestic and foreign lands, this was the first time she had seen someone with such grace and charm.
She cursed inwardly, she averted her eyes, feeling a sense of secret relief.
Indeed, it was fortunate that she had her past experiences; otherwise, she would surely be bewitched by this evildoer!
In that moment of thought, the man leisurely approached her and was looking at her with a slight smile.
“Apologies for the rudeness of my men that might have startled you!”
His voice was lazy, like the warm sunshine that fell on the window sill after the snow had fallen, and the wind had subsided in winter.
Cai Wei understood, this evildoer was the one Brother Parrot had spoken of, the man who had killed six wild boars by himself.
His martial arts were unmatched.
At this moment, even though he had a charming smile and appeared like a graceful young master, she felt an inexplicable oppressive feeling.
She wondered if it was because she now had the capability to perceive more sensitively due to her control of space.
She could actually sense an aura of blood and killing from him – that of one who held control over people’s destinies.
Such a person, she did not wish to tangle with, but she was not afraid of him either.
She responded with a smile, casually saying: “Young master is being too polite, such minor matters cannot startle me.
I wonder when your subordinates will wake up?
I usually don’t know how to control my strength, and I hope you will forgive me if I accidentally killed your men.”
The man was slightly stunned, it seemed that he hadn’t expected such a humble-looking country girl to be so defiant, to dare to challenge him without any fear and even taunt him.
He looked at her with increased interest.
This girl was only around 12 or 13 years old, with delicate features, innocent like a budding daisy.
Even though her clothes were worn, her erect backbone and clear, magnanimous gaze did not exhibit any signs of destitution or inferiority typically seen in the poor, but revealed a refreshing elegance akin to an orchid or bamboo.
“Aren’t you afraid?” The man asked.
Upon hearing this, Cai Wei almost burst into laughter.
I have a divine beast and martial arts skills; what could possibly scare me in this world?
So she retorted sarcastically: “Why should I be scared?
Because you have more people, or – ”
As she spoke, she glanced at the guard she had knocked down, “Because your people can fight?”
You…” The several guards blushed in humiliation and glared at this wild girl.
The man didn’t get angry, but instead laughed, his laugh deep, pure and clear, like a warm sun melting over the snow-covered mountains at dawn.
She turned her face, so as not to lose herself in that captivating face.
Such charms had no effect on her.
Now, if she added together her two lifetimes she was over forty, and women of her age wouldn’t be easily swayed by such seduction.
Seeing the corners of the man’s lips still raised, she gave a hollow bow and sarcastically said, “You may continue laughing, young master.
I have some errands to run, so I’ll take my leave.” Then she turned and hurried off.
Seeing her leave, the guards stepped forward, their questioning eyes rested on their master, unsure whether to stop her or not.
However, the master did not say a word, so no one dared to act willfully.
The man’s laughter ceased as he watched her petite figure.
Suddenly, he stomped his foot and flew into the air, shooting out like a sharp arrow.
On the mountain path, Cai Wei walked briskly.
She was in a hurry to go up the mountain to collect the wild boars and then rush home to fetch water.
If she returned late, her mother would worry…
