Capítulo 1533: Chapter 1471: Guests Arriving One After Another
A few days have passed since the assassination attempt, and still nothing useful has been discovered. Even Ah Jiu’s condition remains uncertain, which leaves Wufu feeling a bit frustrated.
Nothing is going smoothly, how can she be cheerful? Even that troublesome girl Changping hasn’t sent any news for days, and it’s unknown whether she’s alive or dead.
“If she’s dead, she should at least appear in a dream to me, that troublesome girl!” Wufu gritted her teeth in anger.
Purple Jade spat twice: “Miss, you should speak the right words.”
Wufu felt embarrassed.
“Miss, the Wu Family’s second and third Misses have come to pay their respects!” Hongyu reported.
Wufu was taken aback: “Who?”
“Wu Yilin and Wu Yiwan,” Hongyu replied.
“I won’t see them, let them leave!” Wufu sprawled on the beauty couch, holding a book, she said.
Hongyu looked at Purple Jade, and Purple Jade said: “Miss, shall I go see what their intentions are?”
“Hmm!”
Purple Jade went out and quickly returned, saying that the sisters came to thank Wufu for saving their lives, but she had already persuaded them to leave.
Wufu paid no mind as Mo Lan came in holding a box, saying it was sent by Duan Rong from Huayang.
Upon opening the box, inside was a whip in gray and black hues, Wufu took it out for a closer look.
The whip’s body was crafted from the skin of a jungle pupa killed in Cloud Realm, forming a nine-section soft whip shaped like a snake, made with some special material, incredibly tough.
The handle was made from pupa tendon mixed with other materials, inlaid with colorful pearls, very valuable and beautiful. At the top of the handle was a button, which, when pressed, made the whip’s body sprout sharp knife-like spikes.
Everyone exclaimed in surprise, not expecting such a hidden mechanism in the whip.
Wufu’s eyes lit up. She struck the ground with a snap, dragging a mark on the ground; were it on a person, it might rip a piece of flesh away.
“Excellent, excellent, I’ve been worrying about not having a handy long weapon, this is perfect!” Wufu happily pressed the button again, retracting the spikes on the whip’s body.
During the assassination a few days ago, she had a close-quarters struggle with Xue Dizi, always cautious of his poisoned person reputation, which frequently restrained her actions. With a good weapon that could extend the distance, she wouldn’t have suffered so, and Ah Jiu wouldn’t have had to take the fall for her.
She wrapped the whip two times around her waist; it could completely serve as a belt, extraordinarily practical.
“No wonder it’s taken so long to arrive; it seems Duan Rong put a lot of thought into this!” Wufu said with a smile.
“How could he dare be careless with something for the Miss?” Purple Jade said with a smile, “Besides, I’ve talked with him and can tell he really enjoys the craft of forging. With good materials, he naturally puts effort into making it.”
She also took out a letter from the box and handed it to Wufu: “Miss, there’s a letter as well.”
Wufu unfolded it and quickly read it, expressing joy: “Finally some good news, Lady Duan is pregnant!”
The letter, aside from detailing the whip’s usage, also reported various situations in Huayang and the joyful news about the couple.
Purple Jade was not surprised, saying: “It’s normal for such a loving couple!”
Wufu nodded, saying: “Later, prepare a present to send back as my congratulations for their offspring and thanks for crafting such a good weapon.”
“Yes, Miss!”
“Miss. A visitor has come.” Hongyu came again with a strange expression to report.
Wufu frowned, wondering what day it was that brought so many visitors!
