Chapter 302 – Crazy Bidding; The Cheng’s Trump Cards (5)
Before the attendees blew up again, came a crisp and pleasant voice, “Aiya, Old Man Ying, are you trying to create more troubles for me?”
A beautiful image of a woman appeared at the same time; everybody looked toward the voice and, sure enough, standing there was the legendary Maiden Cheng.
She was wearing plain, moon-colored clothing and dress, her feature fair and her skin, the color of snow. Her shiny hair floated in the wind like branches from a willow tree.
And she was Cheng Xiao Xiao!
That name appeared inside everybody’s mind.
Under everybody’s gaze, she walked inside nonchalantly. Everybody subconsciously stood to both sides to give her a path.
Gu Junxian, however, felt surprised when she appeared. He noticed that Cheng Xiao Xiao was now also a martial spiritualist. He recovered quickly and replaced his surprise with a cold smile and more hatred.
He would never forgot the insult that he had received at the Cheng’s, nor would he forgot what his mother just told him about how she was treated by the Cheng’s. He would return the courtesy of everything back to her.
He wanted to completely destroy her reputation today. He wanted her to regret deeply for what she had done, and let her know that he never should have offended anyone but him, Gu Junxian.
As everybody looked on, Cheng Xiao Xiao walked in front of Old Man Ying and a more surprised scene unfolded in front of everyone.
“Hehe, Miss, you are home. I got a lot of mystical stones today. I am sure you will be pleased, Miss!”
Old Man Ying told from the god of winter to a playful old man in front of her in no time flat. More surprisingly, this elder of the Cheng’s was fawning over Maiden Cheng, his adulation unmistakable!
“Ah, excellent, good work!” smiled Cheng Xiao Xiao, pleased.
“Hehe, Miss, don’t you worry, I’ll get you more!”
“Good, you work on that!”
The conversation between the two of them have everybody speechless. What were they saying now? But nobody said a word except to watch things unfold in front of them.
The elder of the Emperor City Cheng’s couldn’t believe his eyes as he looked at Cheng Xiao Xiao. She looked about the same as how he’d remembered her, but the aura she exuded had changed entirely. One could even say that she was like a whole different person!
Was this truly Cheng Xiao Xiao standing in front of him?
He wasn’t the only one who had that thought in his mind. On his other side was Gu Gaoyi, he was equally surprised and in shock when he saw Cheng Xiao Xiao. In his memory, Cheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t bad looking, but she was especially timid. Coming from a prominent family, she not all that outstanding of a person.
Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t care about anyone there, her beautiful eyes swept across all those sitting on the chair and discovered some one who strongly resembled the god of longevity. She was a bit surprised; she had no idea who he was, but she felt that he was someone who should not be overlooked.
Just a quick glance at the man and she walked in front of her own father and curtsied to him, “Dad, I am back!”
“Xiao Xiao, where did you go so early in the morning?” asked Cheng Biyuan in a loving tone.
Being asked by her father, Cheng Xiao Xiao casually replied him, “Dad, I went into the mountain and found a iron-armed bear that is sentient. I went to play with him!”
An iron-armed bear?
Everybody presence gasped. And a sentient one at that? That’s at least a level 7 or 8 mystical beast. For this continent, that was an extremely rare mystical beast.
At that very moment, everybody recalled her status as a master beast tamer.
