Light Cultivation
Eps. 59 — Niu Clan
From the fight in front of him, Jian Chen could see Ziyun was more skilled at using her inner power than swordplay like Meily .
Ziyun's sword technique game was indeed good but the heavy point in his sword arts was his ice element. When both of them used similar elements, Ziyun was more in control of that element than Meily.
This was seen when Meily's hands became cold as her sword clashed continuously with Ziyun's sword.
At the next swing, Meily could not resist the cold so she finally retreated to take distance. Meily's hand that was holding the sword was already almost turning blue from the cold.
No one wins from this match practice, both have balanced strength.
Ziyun poked the weight of the sword arts with her ice element while Meily was fixed on her sword technique and agile play.
According to Jian Chen if the two fight seriously, you could say the result will be a series because these two beautiful girls have their respective advantages in using their swords.
Jian Chen was actually so amazed, he thought in the future Niu Meily and Ye Ziyun would become famous warriors who could electrify the Dragon Empire.
“Brother Jian, since when did you stand there?” Meily then only realized the existence of Jian Chen watching not far from her.
“Since then, I'd like to see you guys compete for a while and that interests me.”
“Mm, is there something wrong in my movement?” ask Meily doubtfully.
“Nothing, you've done it right.”
Jian Chen nodded, he was aware since Meily was taught by him making the girl always ask for opinions about her swordplay.
Meily's mistake in the sword was not because of her wrong movements but on the small aspects that she often ignored. Balance and breathing are two things that Meily often ignores.
When practicing the actual Jian Chen only gave a small input so that Meily used the Niu Clan technique properly.
Ziyun tilted her head, she looked at Meily and Jian Chen alternately. “I just remember now, isn't that what makes Mei’er able to play that nimble sword because of you, Brother Jian?”
Jian Chen smiled faintly. “Not really, from the beginning actually Meily does have high potential in the sword so I only give a little hint to her.”
Jian Chen did not even deserve to be said to be teaching Meily because the girl was too genius according to him.
The praise that flowed on Jian Chen's lips made Meily hold back a smile, the girl's cheeks slightly flushed with pleasure from being praised.
Ziyun gave a small laugh looking at him, it seemed like his best friend had been drunk with love until it did not dwell in front of Jian Chen.
Since there was no longer any reason to keep them quiet in the middle of the forest, Jian Chen went with Meily and Ziyun to the city gate in the north.
Jian Chen did not forget to give the gold card he had previously borrowed from Meily but before it was given, Meily took off her mask.
The gatekeeper was a little surprised to find out that the girl in front of him was the Princess directly from the Clan Leader Niu. Without any further examination, the guard allowed Meily and the two people behind her to enter.
‘Hm... It seems that in the northern part of the city, the Niu clan is highly respected?’
Jian Chen felt how revered Meily was in this area, the gatekeeper even lowered his head in front of the girl.
Before long the three finally arrived at the Niu clan barrier, Jian Chen actually had no business with Meily or Ye Ziyun but these two girls actually invited him to stop by.
“Kak Miou, you are also here?” Jian Chen was surprised because that person was none other than Miou Lin.
“I should have asked so, why is Young Master Jian in the Niu clan?”
Jian Chen scratched his cheek while smiling awkwardly, as Jian Chen was about to explain, beside him Meily and Ziyun had already saluted Miou Lin.
“Kak Miou, Meily saluted..”.
“Ziyun also saluted..”.
Miou Lin had just realized beside Jian Chen that there was a princess of the Niu and Ye clans, she smiled meaningfully and began to understand her plight.
‘It looks like Brother Jian likes these two girls?’ inner Miou Lin in heart.
“For a long time no Mei’er, Yun’er, you are now growing into a beautiful woman.”Miou Lin smiled gently making the two girls smile themselves.
“Sister Miou wants to meet with dad?” Ask Meily.
Miou Lin nodded. “Your father called me suddenly this morning, it looks like there is an emergency going on.”
Meily's face became tense instantly, her premonition worsening. Ziyun beside him smiled faintly before starting to stroke his best friend's back.
“Take it easy, maybe this is not related to your mother..” Ziyun.
“But Brother Miou wouldn't be here if it wasn't related to my mother.”.
Miou Lin saw that feeling pity but on the other hand he could not do much, “I will go to your residence, Mei’er, if our destination is the same we should ride my train.”
Meily accepted the offer as well as Ye Ziyun, Jian Chen ended up coming with the three after Miou Lin said there was something she wanted to convey with regards to the Association.
Along the way inside the carriage, Jian Chen tended to be a lot silent and looked out the window to see the situation of the Niu clan, to be honest this was his first time getting into the territory of this clan.
The Niu clan itself had a sizable territory in Qianshan City although its breadth could not be compared to the vast Jian clan.
Although their territory was not very large but in strength, the Niu clan was in the position of the top three strongest clans in the Lightning Dragon Province.
The Chu clan became the main clan of the Lightning Dragon province because their reputation was greater than that of the Niu clan whereas from the Liu clan, the Niu clan had only lost vast territory.
That's why in the ranking of the Niu clan is in the third position but if the three clans are fighting the results may be difficult to guess because they are both strong.
Jian Chen had finally arrived at the residence of the Niu Clan Chief. The building is large compared to other Niu clan buildings, has 3 levels and a large courtyard in front of it shows that this house is occupied by high status people.
Not to mention that there were some guards from the fence of the building, when Jian Chen's entourage entered, the horse carriage had to be inspected first.
Meily and Ziyun brought Jian Chen and Miou Lin into one of the rooms, seeing Ye Ziyun so familiar with Meily's living quarters showed that she had been here a lot.
In the room now there was only Jian Chen and Miou Lin both because previously Ziyun and Meily had to go first to report to her father.
Jian Chen first asked Miou Lin about the reason for coming here.
