The Legend of the Sacred Sword Cultivator
Ch 62: Meimei Residence

The aura in the room turned dark, not knowing what the cause was. But suddenly the man's body was thrown a few steps aside because a strong energy hit his body. The man then tried to get up to look for the cause.

"Who are you?"

Yang Jian looked at the man who was asking him to speak, then his gaze turned to a young woman who was cowering in fear at the end of the room wall while immersing her face between her knees. Looks her hair is disheveled and her front shirt has been torn to show her chest and arms smooth.

Then Yang Jian opened his outer robe and covered the woman's body. "Don't be afraid brother." Just that word came out from Yang Jian's thin lips yet the woman's shivering body stopped, he raised his head to catch Yang Jian's face covering his body.

"To help me." Her tears continued to flow even though there was no sound of sobs anymore, her pale face signified that how scared she was at the moment.

"All will be well." Yang Jian helped the woman to get up from her seat and led her out of the room, but only a few steps of the woman's hand were blocked by the same man who was almost monodial.

"Where are you going, baby, our business isn't done yet." Said the man with a cruel grin. The lustful gaze he gave to the woman, Yang Jian knew that the man was under the influence of liquor.

Yang Jian raised his hand into the air and then flicked slowly towards the man, as soon as a strong wind hit the man's body and was thrown two meters away from the bed.

"Does sister mind?" Yang Jian asked the young lady beside him who was still filled with fear. At first the woman did not understand the direction and purpose of Yang Jian's conversation, but when she saw the direction of his gaze she only understood that Yang Jian was asking for his approval.

"No, he deserves it." Said the woman steady.

Then Yang Jian nodded slowly. "Get out!" Without waiting for Yang Jian's order twice, the woman immediately exited the room and again closed the door. Shortly after, Yang Jian activated the Heavenly World, within seconds the man before him disappeared without leaving a trace.

And yes, that man became the first human to fall the seal of the Heavenly World. Yang Jian's facial sharpness was still as flat as before, as if he wasn't committing murder at all. As promised, he will wipe out evil.

After doing his duty, Yang Jian exited the room and found the woman he helped waiting for him outside. Yang Jian asked the woman to rest in his room before returning home.

The woman nodded without resisting, she still had not recovered from her shock and fear. Even his eyes were empty unreadable.

The next day, Yang Jian and Meimei had descended to the second floor and booked a private room for them to have breakfast. Previously the woman Yang Jian had helped last night had introduced herself as Meimei.

"Ehm Yang Jian, aren't you here..." Upon noticing Yang jian's cold gaze, Meimei stopped his words. Meimei actually wanted to know why Yang Jian was alone in Stone City and what his destination was. But he did not do it for fear of being considered too meddling in other people's personal problems.

"Is there anything that bothers my sister's mind?"

"Ah no, I just want to thank you. I was planning to invite you to my residence, are you ready?"

"Thank you, but I still have other business."

Meimei tried to get Yang Jian to come to his residence, he reasoned that he was still afraid that Yang Jian would follow him. Yang Jian did not answer Meimei, he was still waiting for what Meimei wanted from him. Whether there is a hidden intention behind his fear or not.

"Can I ask for your help to take me to my parents' house?"

"All right."

Yang Jian's reply made Meimei smile in satisfaction, he thanked Yang Jian for being willing to accept his invitation.

About two hours of traveling by horse carriage now Yang Jian had arrived before the gate of a quite luxurious residence. There were two guards guarding the gate. Yang Jian saw that Meimei was not from just any family. Logically, if Meimei had an influential family in the city then why would he need Yang Jian to escort him.

As Yang Jian and Meimei passed through the gate, the two bodyguards lowered their heads before opening the gate.

"Come with Yang Jian. We're going to see my dad." Meimei took Yang Jian to his living room.

When Meimei opened the door of the living room, it turned out that his entire family had been waiting for Meimei. Meimei quickly ran and scattered himself the embrace of his father and mother. The sound of crying was heard from both sides. On one side Yang Jian was still standing upright without a word. He looked at Meimei's parents, how they were so worried about Meimei who had disappeared since last night.

"Thank God Mei'er you're okay. You have no idea how much mom and dad are worried about you. Forgive your mom and dad for failing to protect you." Meimei's mother and father's cries.

"May'er." A young man approached Meimei and embraced her lovingly. "Thank you for coming back safely, I'm sorry. I feel like I failed as your man." Said the man while shedding his tears. Yang Jian understood that the man was Meimei's future husband whom Meimei had previously told him about.

After a few moments of mutual calm, Meimei's father realizes that a stranger is coming with his daughter. He saw a young boy who looked to be twelve years old. Very handsome, but his aura made Meimei's father feel a little awkward. His instincts told him that the boy before him was not an indiscriminate person.

"Are we having guests?" Meimei's father's question suddenly made Meimei realize that he had forgotten an important figure that he had brought to his residence.

"Dad, mother introduce, this is Yang Jian who saved me from Zong. Yang Jian, it's my father and mother."

"Thank you son, thank you so much for helping my daughter. Tell me, what do you want in return? If we can afford it we'll try to grant it."

Mother Memei walked up to Yang Jian while clasping his hands. Yang Jian who was treated as such only nodded his head slowly and saluted the introductory greeting to the two Meimei elders.

But when hearing Yang Jian's mother's words made Yang Jian's feelings a little disturbed. He hates someone who hides behind a word of kindness to go after something.

"Thank you, but I don't need anything. My job is done, then excuse me uncle, aunt." Pamit Yang Jian's.

"kur*ng aj*r, don't you have ears?" The man who was Meimei's future husband who had been hugging Meimei shouted towards Yang Jian.
