Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Wen Family’s Wen Shiba
Across from the Qin Ling couple sat four people, all dressed in loose white practice robes. Even though they had all deliberately contained their unique martial artist aura, they couldn’t escape the keen perception of Fang Bai and Ghost Hand.
The person sitting directly opposite Qin Ling was an old man of around sixty years old, lean, with half-white hair and beard. His temples were slightly protruding, and sparks of sharpness flashed in his eyes as he opened and closed them, conveying a sense of awe without anger.
The elder sat there leisurely, twirling his beard with a faint smile on his face, conversing with Qin Ling. With every gesture, he exuded the demeanor of a master who was detached from the mundane world.
Sitting to the left and right of the elder were two middle-aged men, one fat and one thin. The fat one always had a smile on his face and occasionally interjected a few words, appearing very amiable.
The thin one had a cold and solemn expression, barely cracking a smile, giving off an air of distancing oneself thousands of miles from others.
To the right of the thin man sat a young man in his thirties, with eyebrows shaped like swords and eyes like stars, a prominent nose, and thin lips. Set off by his white shirt, he looked even more spirited and graceful, ethereal and refined—a man who could make countless young girls swoon.
However, the young man’s demeanor always carried an air of superiority and disdain for everything below him, which made it uncomfortable to look at him. Clearly, he was not an easy person to get along with.
"Wen Shiba?"
Fang Bai’s gaze swept over the young man, guessing his identity.
One had to admit that, based only on appearance, the young man was indeed very popular with girls. If he could restrain that uncomfortable arrogance, perhaps Qin Yaorao wouldn’t despise him so much, and the likelihood of a successful marital alliance between the Qin Family and Misty Rain Tower would greatly increase.
"On the north side are my parents. The four across from them are people from Misty Rain Tower of the Wen Family... The oldest one is Wen Xiangxin, the Tower Master of Misty Rain Tower; seated next to him are two elders of Misty Rain Tower, and that young man... is Wen Shiba..."
Qin Yaorao introduced the identities of the people in the pavilion to Fang Bai in a low and rapid voice.
At this moment, Qin Yaorao saw no trace of nervousness or constraint on Fang Bai’s face; on the contrary, he had a faint smile and an air of having a well-thought-out plan.
Very different from Wen Shiba’s arrogance, what Fang Bai now exhibited was a powerful confidence that everything was within his control.
Qin Yaorao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As if influenced by Fang Bai, her mentality also became more peaceful.
Ghost Hand, following behind Fang Bai, his eyes swept over the four from Misty Rain Tower of the Wen Family, and a sharp light suddenly appeared in his eyes. An infinite desire to kill and an endless fighting spirit surged up momentarily and then were retracted.
The people in the pavilion, who were in the midst of conversation, felt the fleeting battle intent and desire to kill emanating from Ghost Hand, and were shocked at heart, involuntarily turning their heads to look this way.
When they saw Fang Bai and Qin Yaorao with their hands intertwined, the Qin Ling couple’s gaze stalled, filled with astonishment and surprise.
The faces of the four Wen Family members, on the other hand, became quite colorful.
Wen Shiba’s eyes landed on Qin Yaorao’s arm firmly linked with Fang Bai’s, and seeing her expression of bliss and sweetness, a nameless jealousy rose in his chest and he suddenly stood up.
A strong sense of anger and combativeness exuded from Wen Shiba, spreading out and pressing towards Fang Bai beside Qin Yaorao.
In Wen Shiba’s eyes, Qin Yaorao was his fiancée, soon to marry into the Wen Family and become his woman.
And now, this woman whom he regarded as forbidden fruit was actually latching onto another man’s arm and leaning her body against that man. This made him unbearably angry and intolerant.
That man, deserved to die!
Qin Yaorao, this woman, is such a bitch!
Wen Shiba wished he could rush forward and smash that man’s skull with a fierce punch, then slap Qin Yaorao across the face to quell the anger in his heart.
Wen Shiba’s undisguised fury was, of course, visible to the Qin couple, who exchanged worried looks, seeing the depths of each other’s concerns.
Earlier, when their daughter mentioned that a friend was coming to visit, the couple thought it was her bestie coming over to hang out and didn’t take it seriously. They never imagined their daughter would bring home a strange man.
Seeing their daughter arm-in-arm and shoulder-to-shoulder in an intimate manner with that strange man, even the foolish Qin couple understood what that implied.
When a surge of Qi fluctuation emanated from Wen Shiba, pressing towards Fang Bai, Qin Ling’s eyebrows rose, knowing Wen Shiba was trying to intimidate Fang Bai.
The pressure of a Profound Level Martial Artist is unbearable for an ordinary person; once enveloped by this pressure, Fang Bai would probably collapse on the spot, making a fool of himself.
Understanding his daughter, Qin Ling knew that given her resilient nature, if Wen Shiba caused the man by her side to look foolish, she would definitely confront Wen Shiba verbally. This could lead to complications in the marriage arrangements, which Qin Ling did not want to see happen.
However, Qin Ling wanted to intervene and stop Wen Shiba, but it was already too late.
The oppressive wave formed by the True Yuan fluctuations had already reached Fang Bai in an instant.
Qin Ling sighed inwardly and closed his eyes, not wanting to see the scenario of Fang Bai collapsing to the ground.
"Hmph, you dare to challenge me with that little ability? Overestimating yourself!"
Fang Bai flicked the corner of his mouth, revealing a mocking, disdainful smile.
"Presumptuous!"
Before Fang Bai could react, Ghost Hand, who was following behind him, let out a light drink and, with a flicker, positioned himself in front of Fang Bai.
The True Yuan in Ghost Hand’s body circulated, and the air around him was swayed by his True Yuan, creating intense fluctuations. It transformed into an invisible force that collided against the pressure released by Wen Shiba.
The collision of the two invisible forces caused a slight ripple in the space, and as the forces spread in all directions, the clothes of the few people inside and outside the pavilion fluttered without any wind.
"Eh?"
Wen Shiba, seeing the pressure he released so easily neutralized by Ghost Hand, was secretly surprised and took a closer look at this man who was even younger than himself. He then realized that their Cultivation Levels were actually on par, both being initial stage Profound Level Martial Artists.
At the same time, inside the pavilion, Wen Xiangxin, the Tower Master of Misty Rain Tower, along with two Wen Family Elders, also scrutinized Ghost Hand with burning curiosity, speculating the young Ancient Martial Master’s identity.
The young experts of the various major Sects within the Secular Ancient Martial World, they mostly recognized, but this young martial artist with initial stage Profound Level strength was someone they had never seen before, and his Master’s origin was unknown.
Although Misty Rain Tower was a Sect on par with the Ghost Hand’s former Sect, "Myriad Medicine Valley," Ghost Hand was nothing more than an obscure junior there, so it was normal for the Wen Family members present not to recognize him.
Wen Xiangxin had no idea that this Ghost Hand in front of him was the elusive target that both Misty Rain Tower and Qingcheng Temple had been pursuing - the one that slipped through the net from "Myriad Medicine Valley."
