Chapter 310: Chapter 206 I Am a Married Man

"I too am somewhat curious about Senior Sister Su..."

"Let’s just call her Lu Luo then, she prefers this flower name. It’s better not to mention the three characters Su Qianlu in her presence, just a heads up. Although nominally I am a disciple of Swordmaster Peak, she joined the sect earlier than I did, and her seniority exceeds mine by who knows how many fold, plus, she is not someone I can afford to offend."

Jiang Feng spoke with an indifferent expression.

The two brothers continued on their way into the city, their eyes constantly scanning the surroundings for any signs bearing the insignia of Purple Cloud Palace, according to the jade scroll messages from the local area, there is a top-level Demon General from the Demon Race nearby Shuipang County.

However, what baffled the two brothers was the fact that they had caused such a commotion at the city gate, and their fellow disciples stationed in Shuipang County should have responded immediately, so why such sluggishness?

"Then we’ll call her Senior Sister Lu Luo. I did inquire about her later, but it seems that other disciples don’t really like her much. I couldn’t find any useful information, just that she was ostracized by fellow disciples and then was dispatched to the southeastern frontier for some contrived reason."

"You seem quite concerned about her. What, have you taken a liking to her?"

An eyebrow raised.

Lu Luo embodies a certain fox charm, which is intrinsic to her nature; it’s not that all women from the Fox Clan are so enchanting and seductive – it’s that the cultivation technique Lu Luo practices inherently requires her to follow such a path.

Yan Fengchun replied with an embarrassed expression: "Er, no, not her, not her."

With a somewhat unnatural demeanor, because this "not her" seemed to reveal something more, Jiang Feng instantly noticed the slip of the tongue but kept a straight face, his mind slowly pondering who it could be.

"It’s just curiosity. After all, it’s quite puzzling that such a beautiful girl has no suitors. Look, in the past, many people came to me inquiring about the girls around you, such as Miss Bai Yu. Quite a few friends entrusted me to find out, whether she has a sweetheart, whether she is betrothed, and whether she has someone in her heart."

"The main thing is, that girl leaves Swordmaster Peak and looks for others to practice sword with; her swordsmanship is exquisite beyond compare. While obviously a woman, she exudes an air of valor. Although she hasn’t formally become a disciple of Swordmaster Peak, it’s clear that she’s received the true teachings of the Sword Immortal."

"She has quite a reputation in our sect, and since I visit Swordmaster Peak frequently and am most familiar with you, friends have tasked me to inquire about her situation."

Tilting his head to the side, he feigned interest in a small disturbance at the end of the street. Simply put, there was a husband with his pregnant wife seeking a fortune reading and somehow, the two parties began arguing.

Pretending to be fixated on the commotion afar, in reality, he was struggling to suppress a smile more difficultly than an AK; he really wanted to say, "Isn’t that friend actually you?" but reconsidered. Knowing Yan Fengchun’s awkwardness with women, bringing this up would probably mean he’d never be able to face him again.

But on second thought, it made sense. He was often away on extended trips, and Bai Yu was indeed at a stage where both her swordsmanship and strength were improving, naturally requiring an equally matched partner for sparring.

Yan Fengchun mentioned his admiration for the Sword Immortal and how he often came to Swordmaster Peak to exchange techniques, claiming it was to see him, but in actuality...

Case closed.

His Adam’s apple bobbed, but Yan Fengchun maintained a rather normal complexion, merely saying to himself: "Mr. Jiang, as you know, in the Cultivation World, the ratio is seven men to three women, and in some places even eight to two. With an abundance of monks and scarce gruel, female cultivators are rare, and even rarer are those with formidable strength, so one must act quickly."

"To have a gifted and knowledgeable female cultivator as a companion and Dao partner not only benefits one’s cultivation but also bodes well for family prosperity. Lately, I’ve also been asked frequently by friends, after all, I have... several acquaintances with that lady and often spar with her."

Turning his stiff neck, Jiang Feng displayed a zombie-like smile that looked somewhat ugly, even a bit ferocious.

Because at this moment, he was using all his might to hold back laughter.

"Fine, I’ll ask around for you next time. I haven’t heard of her having any love interest, she’s engrossed in Sword Dao all day, and her background is clean. She has a connection with my senior sister, whom she saved in a heroic act and has now grown up choosing to repay her savior."

"Oh? That’s great, truly wonderful, indeed a lovely affair."

Facial expressions changed at lightning speed.

Seemingly realizing his own gaffe, Yan Fengchun’s eyes shifted, and he quickly changed the subject as if to cover up.

"Cough, speaking of which, Senior Sister Lu Luo has decent talent. Though from the Demon Race, her lineage is not simple. Her bone age is at most a bit older than mine. With a Middle Grade Core Formation realm, in theory, there should be no lack of admirers. But after today, I think I understand why no one in the sect speaks of her; it’s quite a peculiar taste. Is she always like this?"

Yan Fengchun is still an honest man, or rather his nature is that of a modest gentleman. Whenever someone asks for help with anything that’s not too troublesome, he’s always happy to lend a hand, especially when it’s fellow sect disciples.

Because Swordmaster Peak reopened its doors to accept many disciples, though the direct lineage consists only of Jiang Feng and Jiang Xian, there are numerous registered disciples and those responsible for serving Liu Tangxi in the mountains, not to mention, each one is exceptionally talented.

Su Yi is at Top-grade Core Formation realm, considered strong among all third-generation disciples. Bai Yu and Lu Luo are at Middle Grade Core Formation, and the last one, Jiang Xian, has achieved Mid Grade Foundation Establishment at only seventeen, so reaching Core Formation before twenty is almost a certainty.
