Chapter 46: Cheng Ying's Pretty Face

  Chen Yunfeng gently patted the slightly frightened Wanyan Ping and said to the man in green robes:

  "Miss, please take off the human skin mask. It's quite frightening to wear this thing at midnight. My apprentice hasn't seen much of the world and might get scared."

  The person in the green robe trembled slightly, and Chen Yunfeng surprisingly saw that she was a woman, and even knew that she wore a human skin mask on her face. Her loose green robe was to hide her identity, and with the mask on, ordinary people couldn't detect it at all. But Chen Yunfeng only glanced at her for a moment and revealed everything, making her wonder if she had been a bit too confident all along.

  The person in the blue robe slowly lifted off his mask, and a face as beautiful as a peach blossom appeared before Chen Yunfeng's eyes. The gentle and quiet expression had an otherworldly aura, with a subtle movement of her red lips and a pair of small, round dimples on her cheeks. At first glance, it gave people a feeling of wanting to protect and hold her in their arms.

  "Miss Cheng Ying has disturbed Sir Chen's elegant gathering, it is truly a sin. I hope Sir will forgive me." The person in the green robe put the mask back into their sleeve, and a pair of white, delicate hands holding a long, jade flute spoke softly.

  Chen Yunfeng took a look and indeed didn't guess wrong, this was Lu Wushuang's cousin, Huang Laoxie's closed disciple Cheng Ying, the beautiful woman. Along the way, he discovered that she had been following him, Chen Yunfeng looked at her attire and guessed that she was covering for Lu Wushuang. Now that she had removed her mask, he found that Cheng Ying's beauty was like a hidden orchid in an empty valley, making people infatuated.

  "The maiden's beauty is renowned, yet she uses a mask to conceal her face. Why must you do so? You are called Cheng Ying, surely not the cousin of Lu Wushuang?" Chen Yunfeng teased slightly before asking the beautiful woman before him.

  With Chen Yunfeng's praise, Cheng Ying's face, which had always been calm and elegant, also showed a slight flush. She had been following behind Chen Yunfeng's carriage for days and had a relatively good understanding of him - handsome, elegant, and extraordinary in martial arts. Tonight, he even unleashed an attack with sound waves that were stronger than the "Bihai Chao Sheng Qu" she had learned.

  She met Lu Wushuang and Chen Yunfeng halfway, and her good impression of him has been increasing all the way. Because Chen Yunfeng's care for Lu Wushuang seems very intimate, under this loving and caring situation, she naturally had an unspeakable feeling towards Chen Yunfeng.

  Cheng Ying nodded slightly and said:

  "I am the cousin of the Unparalleled, and I have been following you guys for days, just in case that Li Mochou comes after my cousin."

  Chen Yunfeng knew as soon as he heard it that Cheng Ying didn't know she had already chased away Li Mochou, and for the sake of her cousin's safety, she would secretly escort her. He is now Wan Yanping's master, and with a hint, the curious Wan Yanping put down the long knife and handed a cup of water to Cheng Ying, retreating to Chen Yunfeng's side.

  Cheng Ying unexpectedly looked at Wan Yanping, this girl really had the instincts of a disciple, obedient and lovely. However, thinking that Chen Yunfeng was only slightly older than her, yet he took on such a young female apprentice, Cheng Ying's face broke into a faint smile.

  Chen Yunfeng stared blankly at the two small dimples on Cheng Ying's face, such enchanting dimples he had never seen in his life, even if his two souls added up to less than forty years old, but Cheng Ying was indeed one of the most lovable girls in the Condor Hero.

  Cheng Ying's face flushed with a warm sensation as Chen Yunfeng gazed at her, something no man had ever done before. She knew her cousin should have been the one he liked, and she hadn't felt any competitive thoughts until now. But the sudden tenderness in Chen Yunfeng's eyes made her heart skip a beat.

  Wanyan Ping stood by, seeing her master's eyes gently looking at the pretty girl in front of him, and the girl was also full of shyness. She felt a sudden pang in her heart, wondering if she would have to call this woman named Cheng Ying "master mother" from now on. She kept sizing her up, thinking about whether she should make friends with her future master's wife.

  Unable to withstand Chen Yunfeng's fiery gaze, Cheng Ying finally had no choice but to lower her red little face, unable to see that pair of enchanting dimples again. Chen Yunfeng also snapped back to reality, looking at the bashful Cheng Ying and the matter-of-factly Perfect Yanping, he dryly laughed and said to Cheng Ying:

  "Tomorrow I will continue on the road back to Xiangyang with Wudou sister, and Wang Ping must also leave with me. Will Miss Cheng also be leaving with us?"

  Cheng Ying slightly raised her head and said softly:

  "I'd better go alone, so I can scout ahead and find out Li Mochou's whereabouts in advance, that way you all can be prepared."

  Chen Yunfeng thought for a moment, although he had driven Li Mochou away, according to the normal trajectory, that ferocious woman would soon break through the Ren and Du meridians and become a top-notch martial artist. He didn't know if his current various methods could withstand the breakthrough of Li Mochou. He told Cheng Ying to hide behind him, perhaps there would be an unexpected effect.

  "Go, you just follow us from behind, and notify me directly if there's any news. As long as we arrive in Xiangyang, I won't worry about Li Mochou even if she appears. But are you going to see your cousin?" Chen Yunfeng nodded and said.

  Cheng Ying shook her head and said:

  "I'm not ready to meet her yet, there are some things I don't know how to tell her."

  Chen Yunfeng understood what Cheng Ying meant, that is, the news of Lu Wushuang's parents' death, until now Lu Wushuang still didn't know. He nodded and didn't say anything else, turning his head to look at Wan Yanping:

  "Now you are my disciple, there are some things that need to be explained. In our school, we do things freely and naturally, following our hearts, the only requirement is not to do evil. Tomorrow morning, wait for my carriage at the crossroads, and we will return to Xiangyang together. At that time, I will teach you the martial arts techniques."

  "Yes, I understand." Wan Yan Ping replied honestly.

  "I'm going back, the Ye family isn't all good people, hum... anyone can put on a virtuous appearance, but after doing all sorts of bad things they pretend to be saints. I won't like such people. Wushuang is still at the Ye house, I mustn't let her get into danger." Chen Yunfeng said in a deep voice as he stood up.

  He swayed and disappeared into the room, and when Cheng Ying rushed out of the door to look, Chen Yunfeng's figure like a wisp of smoke had already flashed tens of meters away. After a few blinks, the figure could no longer be seen.

  "How did he learn such excellent lightness kung fu?" Cheng Ying said in a low voice at the door.

  Wanyan Ping gazed up at the starry night sky with wide eyes, and when Cheng Ying said that her master's martial arts skills were exceptional, she also felt fortunate to have found a good master. She also came to realize that seeking revenge against the Ye Lü family was actually pointless.

  Under the night sky, Chen Yunfeng returned to his room in less than a short while after drinking tea. He had been out for almost an hour and Lu Wushuang was getting anxious waiting inside the room. If not for her chest wound that hadn't fully healed yet, she would have left to look for him long ago, given her personality.
