Chapter 403 - 136: The Girl
The Copper Coin Sword went straight for Jiang Li!
Everyone gasped in unison, still unable to react, and Madam Jiang the Elder nearly fainted.
However, Jiang Li stood steadily, the tip of the sword stopping just at the tip of her nose. Although the Copper Coin Sword was not as sharp as a regular sword, the incident was so sudden that she remained unfazed. Still smiling, her face showed not a trace of panic.
Chongxu Daoist Master’s eyes widened in surprise. Before coming here, he had already learned quite a bit about Miss Jiang the Second. On the Inspection Field, she had managed to complete the archery on horseback despite the startled horse, showing her resolute nature, not easily dealt with like ordinary delicate ladies. But today’s incident was different from archery, even if Jiang Li wasn’t scared out of her wits, she should have shown surprise.
But she didn’t.
The girl’s spine was straight as a pen, like a young tree not yet fully grown, slender and fragile, yet with a determination that not even a raging storm could shake.
She even looked back at Chongxu Daoist Master following his gaze and nodded at him.
In that instant, a shiver crawled up the back of Chongxu Daoist Master. Although his purpose today was to brand Miss Jiang the Second with the reputation of harboring evil spirits, at this moment, he couldn’t help but wonder, even suspecting that perhaps Miss Jiang the Second really did possess some malevolent aura. She was too composed to be ordinary.
