Chapter 273: Lady Yun, the Righteous Sword Qi!
Inside, a stove was burning, and the firewood was crackling and popping, sending waves of warmth toward Li Yanchu. On the stove simmered a large pot of meat soup, filling the room with a rich, savory aroma.
Li Yanchu frowned slightly and glanced at the woman.
Qi Sight!
“Hmm?” Slightly taken aback, he gave a light sound of surprise.
In the vision of the Qi Sight, this woman displayed no trace of yin qi or demonic aura.
However, sometimes the Qi Sight could fail. Just like back in Longmen Village, the entire village’s inhabitants had seemed perfectly normal on the surface. And now, in the midst of escorting the high monk’s relic to Jinguang Temple, he could not afford to be careless.
Moreover, for a household to suddenly appear in the middle of a desolate mountain, it was hard to believe she was just an ordinary person.
“Daoist Master, I’ve made some meat soup. Let me serve you a bowl to drive away the cold.”
The woman bent down to fetch a porcelain bowl. The motion outlined her graceful curves, especially the firm, rounded fullness of her figure, enough to leave one breathless.
Li Yanchu’s brows drew together as a cold smile touched his lips. “Since you live alone, why make such a large pot of meat soup?”
The woman ladled up a steaming bowl of fragrant broth with practiced ease and handed it to him. At his words, she smiled faintly.
“Mountain folk aren’t so particular. I make more at once to save trouble. Daoist Master, please, have some.”
