Sword Spirit

But she currently didn’t care about that. Quickly she turned her head to look at Lu Xuan, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Chen Xiao Han’s sudden change immediately grabbed Lu Xuan and Hallmaster’s attention. Seeing this scene, Hallmaster’s heart swelled. He was truly moved. It was his own daughter after all.

Lu Xuan felt like Chen Xiao Han’s eyes were like thorns in his back. However, no matter what, he couldn’t run away had and to face it.

“You said, in the sword faction, you have a beauty?” Chen Xiao Han once again asked Lu Xuan what he had just said. She attempted to calm down her feelings so that her tone was very even, but there was a trace of shaking in it so that anyone could hear it.

Seeing Chen Xiao Han’s watery eyes, Lu Xuan could hardly bear it, but he still heavily nodded his head.

Receiving this answer, Chen Xiao Han didn’t become angry as Lu Xuan would have imagined but only softly said “Oh”, and then once again pulled out a new blank scroll, once again unfurling it. The drawing just now had been a failure, naturally she had to try again.

Seeing Chen Xiao Han like this, Lu Xuan sighed a breath of relief. She might have had good feelings towards him, but they had only known each other for a month after all. Her feelings probably still wouldn’t be too deep, however, although he thought this, Lu Xuan’s heart still felt a bit lost for some unknown reason. He couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Following this, perhaps they wouldn’t even be able to be friends.

Watching Chen Xiao Han turn around as if nothing happened, preparing to draw the rune again, Hallmaster sighed inwardly. Then he spoke up and said: “Xiao Han, you can stop. Just now, I saw the portion that you drew. It’s enough.”

With slight hesitation, he then added: “Lu Xuan, you can go out first. I need to talk with Xiao Han a bit.”

Hallmaster spoke and Lu Xuan naturally complied. Bowing, he backed out of the room.

Waiting until Lu Xuan had left, Chen Xiao Han couldn’t hold it back anymore, tears immediately began to fall. She flew into Chen Mo’s chest and began to cry loudly.

“Dad…”

Hugging Chen Xiao Han while comfortingly patting her back, Chen Mo could only bitterly smile. It seemed like he had indeed not guessed incorrectly.

“Xiao Han, be a good girl. Don’t cry. What’s so good about that Lu Xuan. In the future there will be plenty of young talents. If he’s unpleasing for you to look at, then dad will expel him from the Enchanter’s Hall, how about that? To dare to bully my family’s Xiao Han and still wants my Enchantment Hall’s things, there’s no such thing.”

“But I like him… How could he like someone else?” Chen Xiao Han raised her head up from Chen Mo’s shoulder and said. Her crying had already stopped and had changed to a quiet whimpering.

“You really like him? Is he that good?”

“He’s not good at all, but I just like him. Today he even kissed me…”

When Chen Xiao Han said this, Chen Mo’s eyes enlarged. Wasn’t this kid too outrageous? He already liked someone else and still dared to seduce his daughter.

Seeing that Chen Mo was about to lose his temper, Chen Xiao Han hurriedly explained: “He can’t be blamed. It was I who forcefully kissed him.”

Saying this, she recounted had had happened to Hallmaster. Chen Xiao Han’s words immediately caused Chen Mo to be annoyed and amused at the same time. Looking at Chen Xiao Han before him, he didn’t know what to say.

He could only fiercely say: “This Lu Xuan kid. How could his luck be so good, making even me jealous. In just the blink of an eye he managed to get you. Thinking back to when I chased your mother, that had taken the effort of nine oxen and two tigers. You really don’t live up to expectations either, charging in all silly-like without knowing anything.”

Chen Mo’s words caused Chen Xiao Han’s face to become incomparably red. She could only say: “It’s not like I knew he had someone else he liked. If I had known, I would… I would have at least thought about it a bit…”

Chen Mo lifted his head towards the sky. This child was finished. She had completely fallen.

…

While the father-daughter pair were speaking inside, Lu Xuan could only muddle-headedly wait outside, inwardly worrying. He didn’t know if Hallmaster would charge out and and furiously spank him in a while, however, Hallmaster was a spirit runemaster. Perhaps he wouldn’t be able to beat him physically, but, if he used spirit runes, then he probably wouldn’t be able to even counter at all.

Staying at the entrance thinking wild thoughts, Lu Xuan carefully thought back in time. This was definitely not correct. Previously, his actions were definitely observed by that lass, Chen Xiao Han. Otherwise, why would she be acting so strangely. Also, such large actions, even if she had been dreaming, she should have woken up.

(TN: Seems like our MC is a detective. We should call him Captain Obvious.)

(EN: We knew he was Captain Obvious long ago…)

The more Lu Xuan thought about it, the more likely it seemed and the more worried he became. He considered sneaking away, however, but he felt like that was too cowardly. What would happen, would happen. At most it would be a spanking.

After who knows how long, the door in front of Lu Xuan suddenly opened. Chen Xiao Han came out. Lu Xuan secretly glanced at her. Chen Xiao Han’s eyes were a bit red, most likely from crying. Thinking of this, he once again felt regretful.

“Go.” Chen Xiao Han said to Lu Xuan.

“Go?” Lu Xuan didn’t react immediately, but quickly recovered. He sighed inwardly. It seemed like Hallmaster was going to expel him.

Thinking of this, Lu Xuan’s heart was a bit sad. He hadn’t imagined that he would still not learn spirit rune skills. Fotrunately for him, however, he had reached the large success for enchantment skills at least. It wasn’t completely without gain. Once he went back, he would once again attack body refining sixth level. Perhaps he would be able to break through.

As he turned and prepared to leave, he thought about it, and felt like that wasn’t quite proper. Once again turning his head, he said to Chen Xiao Han: “I’m sorry for what happened before. I truly didn’t do it on purpose. That is, I hope in the future we can still meet again.”

Finished speaking, Lu Xuan simply turned around and began to walk out.

“Hey, why are you going that way?” Chen Xiao Han’s voice came from behind.

This time Lu Xuan was hesitant. Could it be he went the wrong way and the exit wasn’t this way?

Watching Lu Xuan foolishly turn his head back towards her, Chen Xiao Han couldn’t help but giggle. After the crying just now her face had bloomed into a smile, looking very charming.

“Did you think my dad was chasing you out of the Enchantment Hall?” Chen Xiao Han mischievously looked at Lu Xuan as she asked.

“Did he not?” Lu Xuan asked back.

“Of course not. I was telling you to come with me back to the quiet room. Dad just gave a few volumes with spirit rune skills recorded in them to me. He had somewhere urgent to go and didn’t have time to personally guide me.” Chen Xiao Han said. After a beat she asked Lu Xuan another question: “What, are you in a rush to go back and see your beauty that you don’t even want to learn spirit rune skills anymore?”

Hearing Chen Xiao Han bring it up, Lu Xuan’s face became a shade of red. He replied: “Of course not. Since that’s the case, let’s hurry and go. I had thought that master no longer wanted me.”

Chen Xiao Han lightly snorted and said: “Who let you be naughty. My dad originally was prepared to give you a spanking, but I held him back.”

Hearing this, Lu Xuan only chuckled. Although he was very curious as to what Chen Xiao Han and Hallmaster spoke about, how come it seemed like once she came out she seemed perfectly fine, it was probably better to not ask too many questions. He could only follow Chen Xiao Han back to the original quiet room.

Closing the door, Chen Xiao Han quickly pulled out a number of thick books from her storage ring. Lu Xuan picked one up to look at. Among them were those that introduced spirit runes, some that recorded various spirit rune runes, and some that elaborated on how to use spirit runes.

“These materials are all Enchantment Hall’s incomparably precious books. Normally they’re carried by my dad and won’t be taken out. This time he had matters to attend so he gave me these things. He said with your talent, as long as you’ve read over these books, then even if he doesn’t give you pointers, becoming a one star spirit runemaster would absolutely not be a problem.” Chen Xiao Han said.

Truthfully, spirit runemasters and enchanters essentially weren’t that different. They both drew runes. The difference was that one was an enchantment rune and the other could attack with spirit runes.

“Since that’s the case, then let’s first read over these and then talk.” Lu Xuan suggested. The door to spirit runemasters had already been opened to him. He was feeling a bit impatient.

Chen Xiao Han nodded. The two of them sat in front of the desk and each picked a book to read. After finishing one, they would trade.

(TN: Are the books the exact same length and they read the same speed? Or does one sucker have to wait while the other is slowly finishing up their book?)

(EN: Man, I hope not, that would suck!)

The number of books this time was less than the number that Lu Xuan had Chen Xiao Han bring up last time, but the material covered was more mysterious and profound and couldn’t be skimmed over, requiring them to carefully savor it.

Reading from day until night, after it reached midnight, Chen Xiao Han could no longer hold on and went to sleep first. What caused Lu Xuan surprise was that Chen Xiao Han actually still slept in his quiet room’s bed!

If it had been before today, this would have been taken for granted, but now the two were like this, Chen Xiao Han was still acting like that. Lu Xuan wasn’t able to understand. He had no idea what Chen Xiao Han was actually thinking.

However, these thoughts flew by. Right now, other than properly studying spirit rune skills and becoming a one star spirit runemaster as early as possible, his boy-girl romance growth wasn’t too important to Lu Xuan.

Lying on the bed, seeing that Lu Xuan only turned his head to glance and didn’t observe her, Chen Xiao Han lightly smiled. Thinking back to what occurred during the day, she couldn’t help but blush a bit. Speaking of which, Lu Xuan couldn’t be blamed, after all, it was her who took the initiative. At that time, the guy must have been able to resist. Lu Xuan being able to withdraw himself was already pretty difficult. Chen Xiao Han still had some confidence in her own charm.

Lu Xuan already finished reading all of the spirit rune skills introduction. Right now he was looking at the spirit rune skills runes. While reading these spirit runes, Lu Xuan continually simulated the spirit runes images in his head, and his spirit force unconsciously mobilized.

Just at this moment, Lu Xuan suddenly felt something in his head become clear. It was only a moment. On his face appeared a large grin!

The body refining sixth level bottleneck had loosened!

Without any hesitation, he immediately put the books aside and sat cross-legged. Tai Yuan Yuan Return Tactic quickly began circulating. He wanted to break through body refining sixth level!

Yuan force quickly was sucked into his body and flowed continually along the Tai Yi Yuan Return Tactic’s routes within his body. A sliver of yuan force was quickly pulled out by hi and began to move inwards towards his heart meridian.

This time, Lu Xuan didn’t use a Pulse Protection Pill, but he was filled with confidence. This was a water flowing forming a channel kind of breakthrough. It simply didn’t need any medicinal help. Otherwise, those martial artists that didn’t have the money to buy medicines would never be able to break through.
