Chapter 50 The Mysterious Woman
Bai Chen did not know that he had set General Huang Qian off and had brought disaster upon Xi Dong.
Now, he was walking happily in the sky. Being 300 metres above the ground, there was no way anyone saw him with their naked eyes.
Bai Chen was no longer using Xi Dong’s appearance. He used the thousand-face skill to change his face back to that of his 30-year-old self. His body grew a little bit taller.
But that did not affect the clothes he was wearing. His 30-year-old self was still quite a thin man.
The reason that made him choose to use the skill to change himself into his 30-year-old self was nothing but peace of mind and familiarity.
Now, he could only use the thousand-face skill eight more times to assume eight other appearances.
“It’s a full moon today…”
Bai Chen mumbled this as he walked across the sky. He was rather close to the moon and was able to see it up close and clearly.
With the stargazing walker skill that he was using, Bai Chen could see the stars more clearly too. Though they were still far away, he was at least closer to where they were than when he was on the ground.
It was clear that the reason he did not run back home was that he was feeling rather relaxed regarding Li Lin’s matter, making him want to walk in the air and take it all in.
He looked down from time to time, seeing things he could not have seen if he was not standing where he was right now.
“Wait up, Elder.”
As Bai Chen was taking step by casual step in the sky, feeling carefree, a calm voice rang out. It was a woman’s voice.
Even though that voice was very calm, devoid of any ripples of emotions, it was indeed a very beautiful voice.
Bai Chen felt as though he had been electrocuted when he heard the woman’s voice. He stopped short, realizing that the sound came from behind him.
How could this be possible when he was walking in the air right now, in the vast sky 300 metres above the ground?
‘Impossible!’ Bai Chen cried in turmoil in his mind. His heart was beating a lot faster right now…to the point of almost bursting out of his body!
The boy’s face showed feelings of panic. He refused to believe what had just happened.
To make sure that his ears were not playing tricks on him, he adjusted his expression to be a calmer one, took one deep breath, and turned around to see what was behind him.
As he turned back, Bai Chen’s body froze. His two eyes widened slowly. His body shook uncontrollably.
“An angel” was the phrase that popped into his mind.
A breathtakingly beautiful woman was standing on a sword.
Her face was pale and smooth, and her lips were pale pink, making this woman extremely attractive.
Her two eyes twinkled brightly as if stars were drifting inside them. Her long, glossy black hair reached the middle of her back.
This woman was wearing the outfit of a female martial artist, typical in any Chinese martial arts movie.
There was a long silver strip of cloth tied around her tiny waist. Her body was flawless in every way.
With her plump breasts and her long, slender arms and legs, this woman appeared as if she had come from a fairy tale—an angel descended down to the earth from heaven!
Bai Chen could not take his eyes off of her. He stared at her for a very long time. Even the pretty Li Lin and the genius Long Xu In could not drive him into this state.
The word ‘angel’ was the most suitable for this woman. Saying that this was indeed the most beautiful woman Bai Chen had met in his life was not at all an exaggeration.
“Elder,” the woman said calmly. Her voice was beautiful beyond words, and her beautiful face was also as collected as her words.
But the woman’s beautiful eyes were flickering. There was a wave of turmoil inside.
Her heart was beating fast inside her chest, despite her tranquil exterior.
The tranquility that was presented did not come from inside but was merely the result of the emotion control she was exercising.
Hearing the voice of the beautiful angelic woman in front of him, Bai Chen was pulled out of his trance.
His facial expression changed into one of panic and shock. He had just realized that this woman was standing on a sword that was giving off a beautiful, shimmering silver light.
And that sword was keeping her afloat in the air!
‘A flying sword!’ These words suddenly popped into Bai Chen’s head.
He clearly knew what a flying sword was. It was obvious he knew of them from martial arts movies.
But he had never thought that it would exist in real life until he saw what was in front of him today.
Ding!

While he was caught in panic and shock, the window of the twelfth mission popped up in front of him. It came with a green arrow, pointing towards the beautiful lady in front of him.
‘S… she’s the mysterious woman!’ Bai Chen understood in an instant that this was indeed the mysterious woman whom he had to talk to.
What was different was the fact that he was not the person doing the searching as described by the mission. She was the one appearing in front of him on her own.
