Chapter 112: Nalan Weak Snow
The copper cauldron overturned, hot soup splashed everywhere.
At this time, the several servants who fell down and the several female guests passing by were not good at martial arts, basically had no martial arts training. The large area of boiling water suddenly splashed towards them, they could only shout in panic except for being completely helpless, and could only watch as the hot soup came rushing over.
Just as these people were about to be scalded by the hot water, Qi Chang saw it clearly and was just about to lend a hand when someone reacted even faster!
"Don't move!"
A clear and pleasant female voice rang out, causing the panicked crowd to pause in shock. At this moment, a delicate figure flashed by in the sound, and a snow-white jade palm struck the overturned copper cauldron with a loud crash.
Bang!
In a clear and crisp sound, the copper cauldron weighing hundreds of kilograms had already taken to the air, flying out several meters before landing with a "clang" on the ground.
And as they looked at the soup in the bronze cauldron, everyone was even more shocked - the originally steaming hot boiling water had not only lost all its heat, but had actually frozen into solid ice. The outermost layer of the soup had even retained the shape it had when it splashed out after freezing!
The crisis has been resolved, and everyone couldn't help but look in the direction of the woman who had lent a helping hand. This glance was harmless, yet it firmly locked onto most of the men's gazes, which they couldn't tear away from.
There's nothing to say, the woman was extremely beautiful, her snow-white skin, her black hair blowing in the wind, paired with her delicate and pitifully weak willow-like slender waist, really made it impossible for people to find words to describe her beauty.
The only regret was that the woman's face was covered with a thin veil, making it impossible to see her true appearance.
However, just a glance at that delicate nose and the long eyelashes framing her almond eyes would reveal that she must be extremely beautiful.
Naturally, this dress not only failed to conceal her beauty, but also gave her an enchanting and mysterious aura. Paired with her aloof temperament that made it hard for others to get close to her, this girl had a fatally attractive charm, like an ethereal fairy who was untouched by worldly desires.
"Ah! Weak Snow sister, you've come!"
While everyone was staring at the girl in a daze, Ning ran over excitedly and grabbed her hand, saying "Ruoxue sister, why did you come so late? If you didn't come any later, I would have suspected that you were going to stand me up!"
The girl smiled slightly, not saying a word, but her eyes curved slightly, and her temperament became more enchanting, making many people drool. She followed Ning Jing as she walked, quietly listening to Ning Jing's murmurs.
At this time, the seven elders also walked up with a smile. The girl didn't dare to be rude and hurriedly bowed her head in greeting: "Junior Nalan Weak Snow has seen the Seven Elders!" As she spoke, her breath was slightly insufficient, and she coughed lightly several times.
The seven elders nodded, glanced at the frozen bronze cauldron in the distance with a hint of a smile, and said: "Alright, alright, no need for formalities... Nalan family's 'Ice Jade Technique', you must have reached the level of mastery, right? What an impressive icy aura!"
The seven elders were indeed shocked in their hearts. This copper cauldron's hot soup weighed at least several hundred kilograms, and being able to freeze it into solid ice with one breath was a display of the tyrannical might of this girl's cold-attribute inner yuan energy that was truly astonishing among martial cultivators of her age!
The seven elders were powerful seniors, and Nalan Ruizhe naturally had no hope of deceiving their eyes. She smiled slightly and humbly said: "Junior was lucky to suddenly enlighten a few days ago, and managed to cultivate the 'Ice Jade Manual' to the realm of entering the hall."
Nalan weak snow tone was flat and calm, but the seven elders' mouth corners twitched. Who doesn't know how difficult it is to cultivate Gongfa Wuji and improve one's realm? At such a young age, to have cultivated a Gongfa to the level of entering the hall, it can't be explained by luck alone, it can only be said that this girl's innate talent is extremely high, leaving people speechless.
It is worth noting that among the younger generation of the Ning family, only a handful of people, including those in the inner circle, have been able to cultivate their martial arts and techniques to the level of mastery. Among them, Ning Fan Yu was one of the few, but unfortunately, he met his demise at the hands of Ning Chong due to his own treacherous intentions.
Nalan Weak Snow was only fourteen years old, and the family's secret method "Ice Jade Technique" that she practiced had a difficulty level that was also extremely famous in the entire Xuan Yuan City. Calculating it this way, Nalan Weak Snow's innate talent was certainly going to surpass Ning Fan Yu's; if not counting the "Royal Martial Sect"'s Ning Tian Xiang, she absolutely was the number one in terms of innate talent among the young generation of Xuan Yuan City. Even the first-rate young talents of the two great families, the Ning and the Xiang, Ning Zi Hou and Xiang Yu, couldn't compare to her innate talent.
The seven elders sighed slightly in their hearts, feeling a kind of invisible pressure for a moment. They inadvertently glanced at Ning Jing and truly hoped that this little girl without any ulterior motives could grow up as soon as possible. This little girl's martial arts talent was also extremely good. Even if she didn't surpass Nalan Weak Snow, being close to Nalan Weak Snow would be good too. Otherwise, the severe shortage of young talents in the Ning family would become even more serious.
Quietly thinking, who would have known the thoughts in Qi Chang's heart? At this time, she was already chattering away with Nalan Rongruo, talking about all sorts of things. She had known Nalan Rongruo for a long time, and they were good sisters, so it was natural that they had a lot to talk about after not seeing each other for so long.
The seven elders turned their heads and couldn't help but ask Nalan Ruoxue, "Has your grandfather not arrived yet? That old fox usually loves lively scenes, whatever banquet invitation, he is always the first to arrive, why isn't he enthusiastic today?"
Nalan weak snow smiled and was about to speak, when suddenly a somewhat irritated voice shouted: "You old thing, when will you learn not to speak ill of people behind their backs?"
Among the voices, a tall and sturdy old man with silver hair walked over.
This old man was the master of the Nalan family, Nalan Hu. As his name suggests, Nalan Hu was also known as "Old Fox". He was a wise and cunning person who handled things perfectly and had high and varied means. It was precisely by relying on such wisdom and means that he managed to develop the Nalan family, which had only been in Xuan Yuan City for twenty or thirty years, into the third largest family in Xuan Yuan City, second only to the Ning and Xiang families.
The Seventh Elder and Nalan Hu were old opponents who didn't know each other well. When he saw Nalan Hu arrive, the Seventh Elder laughed loudly and went forward: "Haha, old fellow, I wasn't speaking ill of you behind your back, I was afraid you'd still be hiding somewhere and not show up!"
Nalan Hu's old face turned slightly red. The quiet birthday banquet, many elders brought their personally taught disciples to attend, and there were also many Ning family inner door disciples who came to congratulate, Nalan Hu had indeed been in a hidden place earlier, quietly observing the strength of the young generation of the Ning family and other situations.
