Allure of a Country Maiden-Chapter 1279 - 1276_1
Chapter 1279: Chapter 1276_1
Seeing a man of extraordinary bearing and intimidating nobility step forward, the old man, simply judging by his facial features, knew this was an exceptional nobleman.
In a calm demeanor, he performed a ceremonial bow, "This humble old man pays his respect to Prince Rui!"
Shangguan Xuanyi didn’t act haughty. He quickly returned the courtesy, "Master Yunfa, your etiquette is overly gracious! I’ve been anxiously awaiting your appearance! Please excuse any earlier offenses!"
His little girl was relying on Master Yunfa to wake her up! Shangguan Xuanyi’s attitude was extraordinarily polite, humbling himself before the Master!
He had never even been this courteous towards his own father!
He was worried that Zhang Qingqing had offended Master Yunfa before, and that if he was upset, he might refuse to awaken Xiao’er! Then who would he turn to express his sorrow!
Shangguan Xuanyi would not allow such a situation to occur! Hence, he took the initiative to apologize for the first time in his life.
With Xiao’er unconscious these past few months, Shangguan Xuanyi had been driven to the brink of patience! Basically, whoever could wake her up would be his savior!
What’s the big deal about being a little more courteous!
The doorkeeper bodyguards saw their master lowering himself in such a manner and were utterly astonished.
While the master’s demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, he was truly speaking with exceptional courtesy! Unprecedented! And he personally went to the gate to greet him, showing how important this old man was!
In this world, aside from the Emperor, Empress, and Empress Dowager, and the Princess, there’s hardly anyone who warrants the master’s personal reception at the gate!
However, it turns out this old man is the world-renowned Master Yunfa! He really is quite different from what they imagined!
Luckily they didn’t judge him by his appearance just now, and their attitude towards him was fairly good! Otherwise, if they upset the master’s respected guest, they would truly be in for suffering!
Master Yunfa shook his head when he heard what Shangguan Xuanyi said: "It was I who blocked the lady’s path!"
Master Yunfa was someone who had seen through worldly affairs. How could he quarrel with a commoner?
Moreover, everything in this world follows the law of causality!
Meeting each other is a matter of destiny. If the young lady just now had entered the Wang Mansion with him, she could have avoided today’s disaster. Unfortunately, she was determined to drive him away, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she created negative karma for herself. That was the cause, which led to the subsequent effect.
The cycle of cause and effect is the will of Heaven, and the will of Heaven can never be defied!
"Please, Master Yunfa!" Shangguan Xuanyi invited Master Yunfa into the mansion.
Master Yunfa followed behind Shangguan Xuanyi into the Prince’s mansion.
At a glance, you could see the lush gardens and flourishing life along the way.
He couldn’t help but praise, "The garden in the mansion of Prince Rui is the best I have ever seen!"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Xuanyi said, "The garden was arranged by the Princess."
A hint of pride gleamed in his voice.
Master Yunfa sighed, "The Princess is a blessed woman. What’s rare is that she’s blessed and ambitious."
A blessed person can live a good life by herself.
A blessed and ambitious person can lead many others to a better life.
Shangguan Xuanyi heard this and smiled, without saying anything.
No one in this world knows better than himself how hardworking and ambitious his little girl is.
Apart from sleeping, she is never idle when she is awake. You can’t see any signs of idleness or boredom in her daily life.
Upon entering the room and after serving tea, Shangguan Xuanyi abandoned courtesy and directly stated, "Master Yunfa, did you come today because of my wife?"
"Indeed, I have come to settle the long standing debts of my lineage!" If it wasn’t for this matter, he wouldn’t have deliberately left words hanging.
At this moment, he would still be continuing his research on other’s religious practices in other ancient countries.
"I beg of you to look at my wife, Master Yunfa!" Upon hearing these words, Shangguan Xuanyi finally felt as if the clouds had parted to reveal a sunny day.
He supposes that when Xiao’er wakes up, the dark clouds will disperse, and the sky will again be clear and sunny!
"Prince, lead me to Princess Rui!" Knowing Shangguan Xuanyi was anxious, Master Yunfa said.
Shangguan Xuanyi nodded quickly. Then he stood up and brought Master Yunfa to the room he shared with Xiao’er.
Master Yunfa causally glanced at the room’s furnishings, then his gaze fell on an ancient sword placed on the antique shelf.
Shangguan Xuanyi noticed Master Yunfa’s gaze, "Master, is there anything inappropriate about that ornament?"
"This ancient sword belonged to an ancient general who was born a lover of slaughter. This sword accompanied him his whole life, killing countless people. As a result, it is filled with a heavy murderous spirit, furthermore, being buried in an ancient tomb for thousands of years has imbued it with an ominous aura! Fortunately, the Prince and Princess are both individuals with auspicious omens." Otherwise, they would have already lost their lives.
"Prince Rui’s wife had a difficult pregnancy, didn’t she?" Master Yunfa remembered the sign of auspicious occurrence and sighed in his heart: It must be said that people with good destiny have all entered one house! Otherwise, how many quadruplets can survive? Some would have died prematurely!
Although the will of Heaven can be calculated, no one can interfere with what it intends to do!
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Xuanyi’s expression changed greatly: This ancient sword was a birthday gift from the former king of Xiyue Country to his father, and his father gave it to him when he saw that he liked it. He always cherished it, so he put it in the room. He didn’t expect there to be such a theory about it!
"Yang Liu, throw this ancient sword away at once!" An object of ill omen, better to get rid of it!
"Yes, master!" Yang Liu went over to take it down. No one wanted to keep a bad omen that could affect the Feng Shui energy field.
"It’s a pity to throw away such a fine ancient weapon. I’ll dissolve it and then Prince Rui can use it as decoration. Moreover, this ancient sword is not suitable to be thrown anywhere. If it’s picked up by someone, it would still harm others." Not everyone in this world is as fortunate as the Prince’s household, who can suppress its malevolent and ominous aura.
Master Yunfa walked over and prepared to perform rites.
Shangguan Xuanyi stopped him, "Master Yunfa, I’ve decided not to keep that ancient sword at home. Let’s first attend to my princess!"
Is dissolving the malevolent spirit from the ancient sword more important than waking up his beloved? Heaven knows how anxious he’s feeling!
Seeing how anxious Shangguan Xuanyi was, even Master Yunfa, who had seen through worldly matters, could not help but smile, "Prince, don’t worry. If we don’t suppress the malevolent spirit and ominous aura in this ancient sword, it won’t be conducive to awakening Princess Rui."
That’s why he looked around at the furnishings in the house as he walked in.
Shangguan Xuanyi stopped speaking after hearing this, "Please, Master Yunfa."
Master Yunfa walked up to the ancient sword. He took down the sword from the antique shelf and drew it out. A cold light flashed across the blade in an instant.
In Master Yunfa’s eyes, the ancient sword was emitting a thick black aura of malevolence and ominousness.
That black fog-like malevolence and ominousness began to creep along Master Yunfa’s hand.
As Master Yunfa stood before the ancient sword, he chanted a spell while painting symbols in the air.
