BXBX NOVEL Chapter 213 - Awkward Ride
As he was approaching them, he noticed one of those three people was carrying a slender and cute girl on his arms, but he couldn\'t see that person\'s face, because he had his back towards him. The other one, was shorter, but he wasn\'t able to see anything else, besides a green cape.
The last member of that group seemed to be a very simple woman.
Butler Zhao used his Qi to scan their cultivation level, but beside the girl being carried and the middle-aged woman, he couldn\'t feel anything from the other two. He immediately thought they must be a simple family moving to another city, since the life in the capital was often very hard.
Since everything seemed to be alright, butler Zhao lowered his guard, continuing to drive the carriage.
But just as he was passing by their side, he felt the greatest suppression he has ever felt in his entire life. It was like he was suddenly thrown into the bottom of the ocean, with billions and billions of litters of water pressing down on his body.
The entire carriage came to a halt.
Seth slowly arrived beside the carriage door, opening it and entering. Butler Zhao could only look at that person, not able to even move to stop him. Inside, there was the halted figure of the young noble, Lady Jiang Yi. Just like butler Zhao, she was completely paralyzed.
Seth entered and placed Meiyi inside the empty seat, letting her comfortably rest there. Rina and Meihui entered after him, but they were feeling very awkward to enter a stranger\'s carriage like that.
When Jiang Yi saw who was intruding her carriage, she had no words to describe her shock.
"Hello Miss Jiang Yi, I hope you do not mind giving us a ride, since we are going towards the same place."
After saying that, he released his pressure over Jiang Yi, but maintaining butler Zhao frozen. The man was just like a marble statue, paralyzed in the same position forever. There was a light of despair ever present on his eyes and his mouth was hanging open, making his expression be one of fright.
Jiang Yi suddenly felt she was free and able to talk; however, she was shivering in fear after realizing how devastatingly strong Seth was.
Seth looked at her and smiled while saying: "Where is that brave daredevil from some days ago, huh?"
His mocking tone suddenly made something inside Jiang Yi "click". His words seemed more like an affront than being an insult.
She suddenly lost her fears and said: "Who gave you permission to enter my carriage?"
Seth got amazed by how fast she had changed, but inwardly he felt it would be better this way.
"Your driver didn\'t say I couldn\'t enter, so I entered. You should blame him if you want someone to blame."
"!!!" Butler Zhao was feeling totally aggrieved. He was still paralyzed, unable to even retort. However, against Seth, he felt there would be absolutely nothing he could do.
If Seth wanted to kill them, he could\'ve done it a thousand times already. However, what he really wanted, was to reach the Glazed Lake.
"Shoo! Shoo! Leave my carriage..."
"Come on, don\'t be like that. I see there is still plenty of space here, able to accommodate all of us together."
Seth sat down and Rina sat beside him. Chun Meihui sat at the large seat where her daughter was lying down.
The door was closed, and Seth released his suppression over butler Zhao.
The poor butler didn\'t even know what to do.
"Young Lady..."
"Uncle Zhao... You can proceed." Jiang Yi ordered.
"..."
He was about to make and objection, but he gave up. He knew Seth\'s face and knew the episode he and Jiang Yi had together that night, that\'s why he decided to trust his young lady. With her unyielding personality, he was certain she wouldn\'t put up with something she didn\'t want.
Jiang Yi observed those four people, not knowing from where to begin. Among them, Seth wasn\'t the only one feeling tranquil, but he was the only one feeling the situation was funny.
"So... Who are you really?" She asked about the whole group.
"We are just some distant travelers. I happen to know someone from the Glazed Lake and wanted to pay that person a visit, so I hope you won\'t mind us being here."
"You know they won\'t allow you to enter there, right?"
"Don\'t worry about that, I can do something about it when the time comes."
Jiang Yi kept observing his reactions and how Seth behaved, but the more she observed him, the more she was getting enchanted. Not because of his charms, but because of his thick skin.
"How can you behave like nothing happened? You know, we..."
"Hm? Ah, you\'re talking about that day. Well, for me that was actually really funny. But because of that, I\'ve found myself a perfect ride to the Glazed Lake, so everything is fine."
"I see..."
They kept traveling in that awkward atmosphere. Jiang Yi couldn\'t discover who they were and the people other than Seth didn\'t say a single word.
For almost three hours, they kept that awkward social moment, until the carriage suddenly stopped.
Butler Zhao\'s voice suddenly announced they had arrived.
"Young Lady, we\'ve arrived."
Seth was curious about how they would enter the Glazed Lake, so he used his Soul Sense to see everything outside.
He found out with that, that the place they arrived was not their final destination, but where there were a group of three people waiting to meet with them.
