Chapter 27

"Hey, do you have any alcohol?"

The woman's voice was magnetic as she sat down at a nearby table.

Only upon closer inspection did he realize that this woman was an absolute beauty.

With hair as golden as gold, eyes as blue as the sky, a delicate nose, and those rosy, sensual lips... the woman had a fantastic figure, which was even more alluring in her tight armor, especially her prominent breasts, which exuded the word "voluptuous."

She looked to be around twenty-five or twenty-six, yet she gave off a mature and explosive beauty.

What puzzled Dongfang Xiuzhe was why Zhao Hu and the other guards were bowing their heads so low, not even daring to look at her, despite her being such a stunning beauty.

Could it be that they were not interested in beautiful women?

It couldn't be that she was an enemy, or there would have been a fight already.

If she wasn't an enemy, why were they so nervous?

"Hey, Zhao Hu, who is that lady?" Dongfang Xiuzhe asked.

Zhao Hu was already on edge, and he jumped at Dongfang Xiuzhe's question, quickly lowering his voice. "Young Master, don't make a sound."

Dongfang Xiuzhe blinked, wondering if he wasn't even allowed to speak in broad daylight.

Although the woman in front of him was very strong, Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't think he would lose if it came to a fight.

Considering how nervous Zhao Hu and the others were, Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't ask any more questions but instead turned around and boldly examined the beauty.

From her attire, she seemed to be a Warrior, wearing armor and walking with great physical strength. Her appearance didn't seem to be that of a local...

While Dongfang Xiuzhe was analyzing the woman, she also looked up at him and gave a very ordinary smile.

Like most people, she treated Dongfang Xiuzhe as just another ordinary child.

At this moment, Zhao Hu and the others were communicating in code, and they all came to the same conclusion: it was not a good idea to stay here any longer!

Just as they were about to get up and leave with the young master, an unexpected event occurred.

Dongfang Xiuzhe actually left his seat and walked over to the woman.

This sudden change was completely unexpected by Zhao Hu and the others, and they couldn't stop him in time.

"Miss, can I sit here?" Dongfang Xiuzhe pointed to the seat next to the woman.

The woman wasn't as terrifying as he had imagined. She smiled at Dongfang Xiuzhe again, nodded, and asked, "Little boy, what's your name?"

"Dongfang Xiuzhe, and you, Miss?" Dongfang Xiuzhe plopped down in the chair and asked.

"Wang Chao!" The woman was a straightforward person.

"Miss, you're not from around here, right?" Dongfang Xiuzhe asked casually.

"Yes, I'm from the 'Iron Qin Empire.'" Wang Chao placed her sword on the chair next to her, and the wooden chair made a strange sound. "Little boy, where are you going?"

"Forget it, my parents are forcing me to go to some 'Enlightenment School'!" Dongfang Xiuzhe shrugged helplessly.

Perhaps it was Dongfang Xiuzhe's adult-like behavior that made Wang Chao laugh. "The 'Enlightenment School' isn't bad. It helps you build a strong foundation so you can learn powerful skills when you grow up."

"The problem is, I want to learn now!" Dongfang Xiuzhe sighed, and he wasn't joking.

Wang Chao found this child increasingly interesting. She had been in this country for a long time, and this was the first time she had felt so happy.

While these two were chatting happily, Zhao Hu and the others were on edge. Finally, when the waiter brought the food, Zhao Hu couldn't wait to say, "Young Master, come and eat something!"

"You guys eat. I want to stay here and eat with the lady!"

Dongfang Xiuzhe refused Zhao Hu's request, which almost made Zhao Hu grab him away from the dangerous situation.

"They call you Young Master?" Wang Chao was slightly surprised.

She had noticed from the moment she arrived that those few people were very cautious around her, but she was used to such things and didn't pay much attention.

"Yes," Dongfang Xiuzhe nodded. "They are all my guards."

"Oh, I didn't realize you had so many guards!" Wang Chao teased.

In fact, she didn't take these few people seriously at all.

"Miss, are you interested in being my guard?" Dongfang Xiuzhe looked straight at Wang Chao, half-serious, half-joking.

This really scared Zhao Hu and the others. They kept shouting in their hearts, "My little ancestor, do you know who she is, and you actually dare to ask her to be your guard!"

"Wanting me to be your guard comes with a high price!"

As soon as Wang Chao said this, she could feel the men at the nearby table locking their auras on her.

The air suddenly became oppressive.

Dongfang Xiuzhe laughed and said, "Maybe I can afford the price!"

Wang Chao laughed heartily but didn't continue the topic.

"Miss, your sword is very special. Can I take a look?" Dongfang Xiuzhe walked over to the sword.

"It's very heavy..."

Wang Chao was about to say that her sword was quite special, and even a strong adult would find it hard to lift, let alone a child.

However, she was astonished to see that this child not only lifted her sword but did so with ease.

Staring at Dongfang Xiuzhe in shock, Wang Chao was speechless.

Her sword, though not very large, weighed seventy kilograms. She couldn't believe that this seemingly delicate child had such strength.

"What a strange sword, why doesn't it have a blade?" Dongfang Xiuzhe looked at the sword, which he had drawn, with great curiosity.

The sword in his hand was more like a long, flat piece of steel, thick and blunt, with no edge, not even as sharp as a newly forged sword mold.

"It's called 'No Blade,' so naturally, it doesn't have a blade!" Wang Chao said, taking the sword from Dongfang Xiuzhe.

...

The meal finally ended without any unexpected incidents.

Dongfang Xiuzhe and Wang Chao waved goodbye to each other, and only when they could no longer see each other did Zhao Hu and the others dare to breathe a sigh of relief.

Thinking back to the tension just now, Zhao Hu and the others were still scared. It was fortunate that no conflict occurred, or they would have been killed on the spot.

"Young Master, do you know who that woman is?" After calming down, Zhao Hu asked Dongfang Xiuzhe.

"Who is she?" Dongfang Xiuzhe was also curious about this.
