Ah Chun: Ascending The Heavens 35 To The Heavenly Sword Sect Part Three

Ah Chun's stopped at a stall that was selling hairpins. She figured while she was out she should get a gift for both her mother and her big sister. The shopkeeper looked at the young girl who walked up and felt a bit of dread when their eyes met. He did not know why but this girl emitted an aura that would make one think they would die if they said one thing wrong to her. Even though she was at such a young age she emitted an aura that could make one suffocate just being in her presence. Cold sweat started to form down the middle of his back as the girl looked up at him with a sweet smile. Even though she was smiling at him he could not help but think that this girl was actually a devil in disguise.

"Whwhat can I do for you, little lady?" The shop keeper trying to keep up pretense forced a smile. Hoping that the little devil will hurry along her way.

"Hmm, I'm looking for a hairpin for my mother and one for my Big Sister! Which ones do you think will be good?" Ah Chun said excitedly with a bright smile on her face.

But to the stall owner, it seemed more like a death threat. 'She wants me to choose? What if I choose wrong? Would she cut off my head right then and there?' His thoughts were going all over the place. The more he thought about it the more scared he got. With his fingers trembling the stall owner brought out brocade box that was adorned with gold. Upon opening the brocade box what lay inside was his best set of hairpins that were made out of the purest of green jade. One was a butterfly hairpin that had gold and silver embedded into the wings. Giving it a lavish but simple feel. The other hairpin was a phoenix hairpin with its wings spread open had layered golden feathers that alternated between the green jade that gave it a nobler dominating feel.

Seeing these two hairpins Ah Chun knew these would be perfect for both her mother and her big sister. The butterfly hairpin was perfect for her big sister who barley wore any kind of jewelry and always dressed in a simple manner. While the phoenix hairpin was perfect for her mother who always had a domineering yet noble feel to her. Looking upon these hairpins Ah Chun smile widen. She really liked these hairpins. She was hoping that her mother and big sister would like them to.

"Uncle, how much are they?" Ah Chun smiled at the stall owner. This smile would have been a breath of fresh air for such a cute girl to smile at him, but the killing intent coming off the little girl made the smile on her face make him shiver uncontrollably.

Mei Liling could not help but facepalm, her daughter was oblivious to the fact that she exuded so much killing intent from her body. Mei Liling could see how terrified the shop owner was, but looking at how Ah Chun was smiling with that cute little face of hers she just knew that Ah Chun did not realize this one bit!

"Li-Little lady it-it's on the house just-just take them." The Shop owner could not take it anymore, he felt like he was going to be crushed by this little girls aura. His clothes were already soaked in sweat. He would rather take a loss than deal with this little devil in front of him!

Ah Chun who was oblivious to the manner of how completely scared the shop owner was of her. Just thought he was shaking in excitement. Because he was trembling as he handed her the brocade box with the two hairpins in it.

"Really!? Thanks a lot, Uncle!" Ah Chun was very happy she got two hairpins for free for her mother and her big sister.

Forcing a smile the shop keeper could not help but scream internally. He did not want to give those away for free! They were both worth fifty silver each! But now he has given them away for nothing. It was now that he wished he did not take out those hairpins! She might have gone with ones that only cost a few coppers! Wallowing in his own grief, the shop keeper could only let out a sigh. 'At least the little devil is gone.' he thought to himself.

This scene repeated itself over and over again wherever Ah Chun went the shopkeeper of that stall would end up just giving the items to her for free. While drowning in their own sweat. About an hour had passed and Ah Chun figured it would be a good idea to head back. Mei Liling who was following Ah Chun took all the happenings in and decided it would be best to not stay here any longer and should head right for the sect without staying in the capital. Common people could not handle the killing intent aura that came off of Ah Chun. She would be better off in the sect where she would be less likely to cause a fuss.

Mei Liling snuck into the inn before Ah Chun got back and pretended to be finishing her Qi circulation when Ah Chun walked into the room. She gave Ah Chun a little scolding for going off on her own without saying anything. Yu Yan who was still cultivating was rudely interrupted by Ah Chun who was shaking her and waving a hairpin in her face. Both Mei Liling and Yu Yan both accepted their gifts with gratitude.

After everyone was ready to go Mei Liling announced that they had to hurry to the sect because she had pressing matters to attend to. Ah Chun who already had her little excursion into the city did not make a fuss and agreed readily.

They arrived at the transportation array before noon. This transportation array only led to the capital and was the only transportation array within Wind City. The imperial family thousands of years ago had hired an immortal cultivator who was a master at arrays to lay down multiple transportation arrays that led to the bigger cities around the Dragon Empire. The Dragon Empire took up a quarter of the Golden Fog Continent. Once you have left the Dragon Empire, it was the world of immortals with its sects battling for territory and resources. It was not strange to have a sect disappear overnight because one of their disciples happened to rub the wrong powerful cultivator the wrong way. To be safe from the demonic beast and other calamities that can be found within the lands most of the Golden Fog Continent was not settled. All in all, human beings whether it was commoners or immortal cultivators. Their numbers only reached into the millions. Whereas demonic beasts numbers reached into the tens of millions.

The array was not all that fancy looking it was just a platform where one would stand in the middle of and a white light would shine sending the person to the connecting array in the capital city. Ah Chun who was excited to go through the array felt a bit of disappointment when she realized that it was over in a blink of an eye.

Once they reached the capital they did not linger for long as Mei Liling grabbed Ah Chun's hand and dragged her towards the array that led to their sect. Most of the major sects had established an array within the capital city for ease of travel. There was an untold law that kept immortal cultivators from fighting within the capital city. This did not mean that there was never any fighting in the capital city between immortal cultivators but it was very, very rare. Standing in the middle of the transportation array that led to the Heavenly Sword Sect Ah Chun was engulfed with light as the array started up.
