This True Infant stage expert appeared to be about thirty years of age. His features were plain yet resolute, with a slightly hooked nose and thin, straight lips. From his appearance, he seemed to be an extremely strict and stern person, not at all like the kind and gentle individual Jiang Yun had described.
"Junior Zhao Chun greets Master Wei Yue."
She gave a slight nod, gesturing for Zhao Chun and Jiang Yun to take a seat.
"No need for such courtesy. Our sect values the Sword Dao above all. As we are both cultivators of the Sword Intent Realm, I am merely your senior by many years, which is how I managed to break through to Sword Intent Nonaction. In the future, your accomplishments will surely surpass mine. It is only for now that I can accept a bit of your respect."
The moment she spoke, the cold, hard aura around Master Wei Yue softened. Of the three thousand years of a True Infant's lifespan, she had already lived through more than half. The realm of the Externalization Venerable was a distant prospect, which in turn gave her an air of carefree detachment.
She seemed more like a family elder, her gaze warm and gentle.
"The Grand Elder instructed us not to disturb you unless you came down the mountain of your own accord. I didn't expect Jiang Yun to bring you here today."
