บท 13: The Old Master of the Min Clan
The carriage entered a huge gate. Li Wei heard shouting. An energetic way of people on their training.
Alighting the carriage, she watched those people training their martial arts into a solid foundation. She even saw the Dragon Claw Technique that Feng An taught her.
Li Wei sighed. 'So, this is where Feng An learned the moves.'
"Miss Li, if you want to. You can watch the training. I'll call my old man." Min Ming respectfully said and walk inside the house.
Li Wei watched, and the two she was with earlier join the training.
A minute later, An old man and a man in his 40's exit the Grand Manor.
Seeing her face, there is a glint in the old man's eyes. He remembered this exquisite face and he will never forget it. If he forgets that face, the old man will look at her portrait. Immediately, the old man's eyes brimmed with tears.
"Master..." He murmured and kneeled. The whole clan gasped in shock. Hearing the kneeling sound, Li Wei looked at the old man. His tears falling down his wrinkled face while looking at her. Her emotion got very complicated. She was confused. Did the old man just called her 'master'?
"Master, you're back. This disciple had been waiting for long." The old man kowtows, the sound of his forehead banging in the ground resounded in the residence.
Li Wei was rendered speechless.
Coming back to her senses. Her voice cracked as she spoke. The coldness in her voice fainting.
"Forgive me, but I think you've got the wrong girl. I don't deserve such worship, I will return it to you." She was about to kneel when the old man hastily stood up to help her. He then spoke in a frantic voice.
"Master! This disciple is wrong! This disciple is wrong! You were hurt in the past! You said half of your soul scattered! You said you wanted to recuperate! Master, I've waited for long..."
Li Wei face darkens; 'Oh fuck. What should I do?'
She closes her eyes to swallow her anger. And then spoke with a gentle and light tone. "Let me tell you something, Uncle. I am young, it is impossible for me to be your master."
"Miss Li is right, father." The man in his 40's spoke. Min Ming also nodded, followed by the rest of the clan.
"It's impossible. Even her favorite hair ornament she's wearing is exactly the same! She must be my master's daughter or something like that! Or my master becomes an immortal that's why she's so young even though she's in her 90's!"
Li Wei almost vomits blood. An immortal? She doesn't know whether to laugh or cry! 'Uncle, I came from another world.'
She's 18! Naturally, not an old woman!
"Uncle, how about we talk it out with some tea? Tea sounds good, right?"
"Of course! Of course! Tea sound great, Master!"
Li Wei sighed. What is she going to do with this old man?
"Wait for me, Master! I'll just change my clothes." And the old man dashed enthusiastically in the Manor.
She cannot help but make a facepalm. 'How come I can't even lift a finger for this old man?'
Li Wei looked at the son (The 40-year-old man), the grandson (Min Ming), and everyone in the clan. She spoke languidly.
"I'm not an old woman." She says.
*******************
Li Wei sips her tea, sighing in her heart deeply.
"I am not your Master." She finally spoke after drinking 2-3 cups of green tea to calm her heart.
"I know."
"Then why? Why are you insisting that I am your master earlier?"
"I just missed my Master so much. You looked very much like her. It's been a century. In the past, I caught upwind that she died. Our sect, The Seven Dragon Palace had a lot of enemies. We were a great faction. A powerful sect. And because of that, other sect wanted to destroy us." The old man said a painful expression showed in his face as he recalled the memories he had in the Seven Dragon Palace.
"My master made the disciples escape but I don't want to leave her, because of my stubbornness and stupidity, she got hurt."
"Why are you telling me this?" She asked.
"It's all in the past now. A story to tell." He put down his glass and looked at the girl in the opposite chair.
The dragon ornament. The demeanor. Her exquisite face and changing expression are very the same.
But it can't possibly her.
'She said it. She wasn't my master.'
"Wen'er, I'll be back..."
"Wen'er...Master is dead..."
Old Master Min Wen's heart aches uncontrollably. He calmed himself down by drinking the tea.
"Forgive me if this old man troubled you, Miss Li."
"No worries. Anyway, Min Ming said that there is something that the Master wants to ask about."
"Ah, about that, my son just wanted to know if where did you learn the Dragon Claw Technique. That's one of the Seven Dragon Palace technique that I learn in the past, haha." The old man laughed rubbing his beard.
"Maybe your Master is from the Seven Dragon Palace." He said excitedly but to his disappointment, Li Wei doesn't have any Master.
"I don't have a Master."
"Oh. Then how? How did you know the Dragon Claw Technique?" He was disappointed but he tried to cover it up with asking this question.
"I learned it. It's a pretty easy move."
Min Wen chokes up from his tea. Easy? Dragon Claw Technique is not easy at all! He learned it for 3 months in the past and his son and grandchildren learned it for 5 months! Dragon Claw is not easy especially when you're inexperienced in combat!
