The Devil Sword Swordsman
Ch. 273 - Ren Ning
He could not wait to see Lan An continue to look up without being able to remember anything. When Lan An had just opened his mouth, suddenly Yong Tao came over.
"What are you guys doing here? Hasn't he been ordered to go upstairs to make a welcome? Soon the appointment of the Imperial Pillar will be carried out in the presence of tens of thousands of warriors. Moreover, you are Lan An, quickly go upstairs with Xin Fai and Xiu Juan. We don't have time!"
The extremely long rant Lan An responded with a sullen face, he muttered yes before going with Yong Tao to the top fortress to join Xin Fai, Xiu Juan and some Imperial Pillars.
The ceremony of the inauguration of the Imperial Pillar took place lively, the drum with a hard roof enlivened the atmosphere. Some locals watch in the distance no less enthusiastic. The decorations along the path of the White Fog Valley lit up the atmosphere, along the way becoming very dense.
Yong Tao stood up straight to feel the joy. In this way his position as the Imperial Pillar changed to the fourth, he had never bothered about it since it was appropriate for the young one to intervene alone. The man rolled his gaze across, seeing the hundreds of White Mist Valley sect disciples gathered together to meet the road directly opposite the tall fortress on which they stood.
"In this way you have officially been considered to bear all the problems in our Empire, never forget this responsibility. Peace is in the hands of the three of you."
Lan An, Xin Fai and Xiu Juan nodded obediently, listening to the advice for the sake of the advice that their senior Imperial Pillars spoke as well as the appeals and directions that might be useful in the future. After the inauguration of the Imperial Pillar that lasted for quite a long time finally a big feast was celebrated.
It was inconceivable how many White Fog Valley was in the day of the Empire Pillar inauguration today, despite only seeing a portion of Xin Fai quite pleased with the enthusiasm of the people. He felt that their trust alone was enough to make him happy. The rest he immediately said he would take a break from Qin Minjie.
Yong Tao stood up from his seat when he heard Xin Fai had to leave again for the umpteenth time. I don't know why the young man really couldn't stay in one place for long without doing anything.
Eight years of being in a vacillator between life and death should make him exhausted, at least this month he had to rest his body. Yet Xin Fai chose to leave, she saluted for a while before actually stepping her feet away
"Tu-wait!"
The voice of the girl figure sounded from behind, her breathing hunting as it managed to grab Xin Fai's arm. Ren Yuan frowned both of his brows, sounding slightly pushy.
"I want to go with you!"
"Don't, this is too dangerous."
"Danger?!" Yong Tao exclaimed in panic, then Xin Fai closed his mouth quickly. For some reason his mind became chaotic, he could not understand either. Moreover, now Ren Yuan did not let go of his hand.
"Senior Yong, listen to my explanation first."
"You can't go. If you're going through something bad, then all the plans you've prepared have to start all over again." Yong Tao brought his body closer. "Don't do the no-no."
Ren Yuan could see the look on Xin Fai's face begin to deteriorate, he believed that this was important to him. But Ren Yuan himself could not let the young man go alone much less when he said it was a dangerous thing.
Qin Minjie walks slowly to reconcile the two sides. "Xin Fai can you tell me in more detail who are you going to meet?"
"I really can't say it, let alone in a crowded place like this."
"Senior Yong, for the last time please let me go. I won't ask for anything after this, after all I can keep my promise, right?"
"Can't, Xin Fai." Yong Tao insisted and remained on his choice. He would not let Xin Fai go anywhere. The last time the young man asked for his permission to explore the Qing Empire, this time was somehow dangerous what else he was looking for.
"I think I missed the news..."
There was the sound of heavy feet stepping, from the stairs was seen a man in fancy clothes was coming accompanied by his wife and servants. He was the head of the great noble family Ren invited today. As a result of the crowded White Fog Valley, he was forced to arrive late, even after the ceremony was completed.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?" Ren Ning asked Xin Fai, not yet had time to answer the man again. "Even if you haven't met me yet, do you want to get out of here?"
"I-I'm sorry..."
Ren Ning lowered his gaze to the hand of Ren Yuan who was clutching Xin Fai's arm tightly, truly a sight that made her chest feel flowery. His wife was even happier than her husband.
"Yuan'er, maybe I can help you out a little. Can you tell me what's going on here?"
Ren Yuan would not immediately explain about Xin Fai's departure, which Yong Tao blocked, he added that he would also come with the young man.
Feeling this opportunity was too good to pass up Ren Ning started to approach Yong Tao, speaking very softly to him. "Yong Tao's... Don't you want to let my daughter be happy?" the noise was in the man's ears. Yong Tao went awry, on the one hand he did not want to let Xin Fai leave just like that on the other hand he did not want Ren Ning to be disappointed in him.
"If you're worried about Xin Fai I think it's too much, his abilities have already reached the last stage grand swordsman plus two legendary swords are in his hands. Did you forget that? Or do you still think of him as a child?"
Ren Ning smiled at a glance, if in terms of opinion he was indeed the first champion.
Yong Tao took a heavy breath then threw it away slowly, he looked resigned to the situation. While Qin Minjie seemed to have no objection to letting the young man take care of his own matters.
Only Yong Tao was so worried, the man stiffened himself. He nodded slowly making a widened smile at both corners of Ren Ning.
"Daughter, the rest I leave to you..."
The girl's red face almost resembles a tomato. "Dad, stop it."
"Not to tease her anymore, she's a grown-up baby." Ren Ning's wife interceded. He gave a slight smile to Xin Fai.
"Please take care of my daughter, yeah."
'I haven't even said I'd agree to go with me or not.' Xin Fai's inner heart, could only snort while nodding lightly. Hope Ren Yuan won't trouble her later.
