Chapter 503 Stunning Beauty, Allure in Silence

Hearing what Gu Shaoan said through his internal energy transmission, Mei Jiangxue was slightly taken aback.

"two?"

Although Mei Jiangxue didn't know much about the situation in the Great Sui Kingdom, she did know that the two most famous young people in the Great Sui Kingdom were Wanwan, the current Holy Maiden of the Yin Kui Sect of the Demonic Sect, and Shi Feixuan, the current Holy Maiden of the Cihang Jingzhai.

Both of them reached the level of Qi Condensation and Yuan Formation in their internal energy cultivation when they were in their twenties.

Furthermore, both of them mastered the strongest martial arts techniques within their respective sects.

Their strength was unmatched within the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Mei Jiangxue asked telepathically, "Does Senior Brother mean that the Holy Maiden Shi Feixuan of Cihang Jingzhai has also arrived?"

Gu Shaoan replied, "Yes! We arrived around the same time as the one on the roof!"

Upon hearing this, Mei Jiangxue's expression became even more solemn.

Whether it was Wanwan moving to the rooftop or the Yin Kui Sect members approaching the post station, Mei Jiangxue noticed it immediately.

However, according to Gu Shaoan, in addition to Wanwan and the people from the Yin Kui Sect, Shi Feixuan also arrived ahead of time.

Mei Jiangxue had no doubt about the truthfulness of Gu Shaoan's words.

The only possibility is that Shi Feixuan's strength is even greater than Mei Jiangxue's, which is why she was able to avoid Mei Jiangxue's suspicion.

Seeing Mei Jiangxue's reaction, Gu Shaoan instantly guessed what Mei Jiangxue was thinking.

He immediately transmitted his voice, saying, "Like Qin Mengyao, she has already reached the level of 'Sword Heart Clarity' in the Cihang Jingzhai's ultimate technique, the Cihang Sword Canon. Although she cannot communicate with the power of heaven and earth, she can use her sword intent to conceal her aura, making it difficult for others to detect her."

Back when Yan Jing'an was at Yixiantian, in front of a group of Celestial Realm martial artists and Gu Shaoan, the reason why Yan Jing'an dared to hide on the top of Yixiantian Canyon and secretly spy was probably because he used the "Sword Heart Clarity" method in conjunction with his sword intent to conceal his figure and aura, believing that he would not be detected by Gu Shaoan.

Yan Jing'an, whose internal energy cultivation had already reached the level of Condensing Yuan into Gang, used the Sword Heart Clarity Technique to conceal his aura, which was like children playing house in Gu Shao'an's eyes. Not to mention Shi Feixuan, whose internal energy cultivation was only at the level of Condensing Qi into Yuan.

As soon as he stepped into the hundred-foot range of this post station, Gu Shaoan sensed the sword intent within his body.

Mei Jiangxue looked at Gu Shaoan in astonishment: "Sword intent can also help conceal one's aura?"

Gu Shaoan nodded slightly: "Your sword intent is unique. Once you reach the first realm of swordsmanship and condense your sword intent, you will be able to experience its wonderful uses!"

Just as Gu Shaoan finished explaining to Mei Jiangxue the method Shi Feixuan used to conceal her aura, the smoke in the hall had completely dissipated.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Wanwan exerted her strength in her waist on the roof and leaped directly down from the edge of the large hole in the roof, landing silently.

Gu Shaoan's gaze swept over Wanwan's feet, and he saw that the soles of her feet were wrapped in true energy, making Wanwan appear to be standing firmly on the ground, but in reality, there was a half-inch distance between her feet and the ground.

As soon as Wanwan entered the main hall, two martial artists from the Yin Kui Sect who had reached the level of returning to the innate realm in internal energy cultivation hurriedly stepped forward to pay their respects.

"Saintess".

Upon hearing this, Wanwan glanced at the two martial artists who had returned to the Innate Realm who had spoken, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.

"He was arrogant and domineering, boasting about how powerful he was, but he couldn't even handle a dozen or so people. He'll have to accept his punishment when he returns to the sect."

Her voice was still charming, but now carried a hint of authority.

"Your subordinate knows he was wrong."

Upon hearing Wanwan's words, the two Yin Gui sect members who had returned to the innate state quickly agreed.

After letting out a soft hum, Wanwan first glanced at Wu Mengci, whose expression was solemn, and then shifted her gaze to Gu Shaoan and Mei Jiangxue in the corner.

Then, Wanwan glanced at the sword marks on the ground that Mei Jiangxue had just created with her sword energy, a fleeting look of solemnity and surprise passing through her eyes.

He immediately stepped out barefoot.

When its bell rang, it moved instantly to the table where Gu Shaoan and Mei Jiangxue were.

After sitting down, Wanwan rested her elbows on the table, spread her two fair palms, and then looked at Gu Shaoan with her chin on her palms, her beautiful eyes glancing around and her face beaming with smiles.

"This young master is quite handsome. May I ask if I may know his name?"

Mei Jiangxue frowned slightly, seemingly displeased, as she looked at Wanwan, who had come uninvited and was sitting less than a foot away from Gu Shaoan.

When faced with Wanwan's question, Gu Shaoan replied calmly, "We are just ordinary people in the martial world, and we have no intention of interfering in your affairs. You don't need to worry about us."

As he spoke, Gu Shaoan picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and slightly raised his eyelids.

Despite Gu Shaoan's clearly distant attitude, Wanwan remained unperturbed, her smile unwavering as she said, "A stranger in the martial world, does the young master mean someone you don't need to know before we meet?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Shaoan gently shook his head.

"The strangers I'm referring to are not on the same path as you, young lady."

Wanwan looked aggrieved, and her tone became more resentful as she said, "It's only our first meeting, and you're already keeping me at arm's length. It's far too hurtful."

Although her face showed obvious grievance, Wanwan's gaze kept shifting back and forth between Gu Shaoan's and Wanwan's.

When Wanwan's gaze fell upon Gu Shaoan's left hand resting on his lap, and the Yitian Sword held within it, her eyes narrowed. In an instant, the smile on Wanwan's face froze, like a lake standing still! Her eyes, which had always been full of charm, suddenly contracted!
A few breaths later, she seemed to recover from some kind of great shock.

When she looked at Gu Shaoan again, her stunningly handsome face was unconsciously tinged with undisguised surprise and solemnity.

At this delicate moment when Wanwan's mind was shaken and the atmosphere suddenly froze!

A flute melody drifted in unexpectedly from outside the post station, carried by the wind.

The sound of the flute was ethereal and clear, like a clear spring cascading from the heavens, carrying a sense of purity and tranquility that cleanses the soul.

At first, it flowed like a gentle stream, long and winding, penetrating the dilapidated walls of the post station and flowing directly into everyone's heart.

However, this pure and ethereal flute music, when it fell into the ears of the Yin Gui Sect's Acquired Realm followers in the lobby of the post station, seemed to transform into an invisible demonic sound!

"Ugh!"

"My head...it hurts so much!"

"what--!"

Almost the instant the sound of the flute entered their ears, the expressions of the lower-ranking members of the Yin Gui Sect who were originally armed changed drastically.

As the sound of the flutes entered their ears, the Yin Kui Sect members all felt as if countless invisible needles were piercing their heads, or as if a giant hand was squeezing and crushing them. Intense headaches surged like a tidal wave.

In an instant, the followers of the Yin Gui Sect staggered as if drunk, painfully releasing their weapons, clutching their heads tightly with both hands, and curling up on the ground as if their spines had been removed, rolling and struggling.

Seeing the state of these Yin Gui Sect members, the other two Yin Gui Sect martial artists who had returned to the Innate Realm were shocked.

"Oh no, there's something wrong with this flute music. I need to use my internal energy to defend against it."

One of them reacted the fastest, speaking immediately after regaining his senses.

Upon hearing this, the other person and the Yin Gui Sect members on the ground hurriedly circulated their internal energy to try to resist the flute music that carried special magic.

At the same time, Wanwan, who had just been in a state of shock, was also drawn back to attention by the sudden sound of the flute.

After turning her head and glancing in a certain direction of the post station, Wanwan snorted coldly. Then, her true energy surged, and the golden bell on her right ankle suddenly trembled. A clear and lively sound, yet containing a strange rhythm and penetrating power, suddenly rang out!
The bell wasn't jarring; instead, it possessed a strange allure and soothing power, rippling outwards like water, instantly enveloping the entire inn's lobby. Wherever the bell passed, faint pinkish ripples of sound seemed to form in the air, almost imperceptible to the naked eye.

As the bell rang, the flute music that had just drifted into the lobby of the post station was immediately suppressed.

As the sound of the flute was suppressed, the Yin Gui Sect followers on the ground, who had been suffering from splitting headaches and feeling like they were dying, suddenly felt the excruciating pain, like a bone-deep boil, recede rapidly like a tide.

As the pain subsided, these Yin Gui Sect disciples, as if they had survived a calamity, gasped for breath, their foreheads drenched in cold sweat.

After things calmed down a bit, the Yin Gui Sect members quickly picked up the weapons scattered on the ground, stood up again, gathered back to back, and scanned their surroundings with wary eyes like frightened wild beasts.

Just then, through the huge hole that Wanwan had blasted open in the roof of the post station, the bright moonlight, like mercury spilling onto the ground, suddenly rippled gently.

The next instant, a figure, bathed in the cool moonlight, like a fairy descending from the moon palace in the heavens, silently floated down from the hole.

The woman appeared to be around twenty years old, with eyebrows like distant mountains, naturally verdant; eyes like autumn waters, clear and flawless; a delicate nose; and lips a pale cherry pink, like newly opened lotus petals. She wore a pure white dress, and under the moonlight, she seemed to be enveloped in a hazy, holy glow.

Her appearance was not the kind of stunning beauty that could captivate and bewitch people, but rather a pure and ethereal beauty that was as clear as water.

But it gives people a sense of purity that is untouched by worldly concerns.

She is none other than Shi Feixuan, the Holy Maiden of Cihang Jingzhai, the only young woman in the Great Sui Kingdom who can compare to Wanwan.

She is also one of the few disciples among the successive holy maidens of Cihang Jingzhai who not only reached the Ningyuan realm in internal energy cultivation at the age of twenty, but also reached the "Sword Heart Clarity" level in the Cihang Sword Manual.

Not to mention the ordinary followers of the Yin Gui Sect who were at the Acquired Realm, even the two martial artists who had returned to the Innate Realm couldn't help but be captivated when they saw Shi Feixuan gracefully descending from the sky.

However, when their eyes fell on the jade-green, warm and smooth bamboo flute that Shi Feixuan was holding in her right hand, they quickly snapped out of their reverie and suppressed their lingering thoughts.

The moment the toes touched the ground, not even the finest dust was disturbed.

As Shi Feixuan appeared, Gu Shaoan's gaze also lifted slightly.

Compared to Qin Mengyao, Shi Feixuan did not exude a sense of holiness.

Instead, it is a profound tranquility and peace, like the snow that never melts on a mountaintop, or the orchid in a deep valley.

But this feeling made Shi Feixuan feel like a secluded orchid in a deep valley, a fairy who was detached from the world.

A demonic woman like Wanwan may be beautiful, but everyone knows she's a rose with thorns, so they're naturally wary of her.

But how many people in the martial arts world would be wary of the Holy Maiden of Cihang Jingzhai?

Naturally, how many of those arrogant and overconfident young talents who have just entered the martial arts world could not be amazed when they first see such a woman?

"Indeed, both the Cihang Jingzhai of the Great Wei Kingdom and the Cihang Jingzhai of the Great Sui Kingdom are professional in training female disciples."

"The saintess cultivated is an absolute beauty, her charm lies in silence."
