Walker Of The Worlds

An elegant woman walked out of the carriage, exuding an aura of pure confidence and dominance.

Her gaze was sharp yet calculative and quickly observed everyone that was present there at that moment.

Lin Mu felt the woman's gaze land on him and linger for a couple of seconds before moving on. He didn't pay attention to it much, but the woman sure did.

'So he's here… Looks like he was picked up by the Crown Prince before I could approach him.' Lady Kang thought to herself. She had intended to pick Lin Mu as the member of the expedition too, but was unable to find him after he had left the Capital City. After all, there was no way she would know that he intended to enter seclusion for a while to learn the Litany of the Verdant Forests.

Plus after that, he didn't return to the Capital city either, and as such it became a lost cause for Lady Kang and her servants.

She reckoned that it was probably out of their reach and she let it be. But now that she saw Lin Mu there, she couldn't help but be a bit surprised.

Of course due to being highly experienced with such matters, her face did not betray her thoughts at all. Instead, her expression and gaze was such that most people would rather look away instead of meeting her eyes.

It was simply overpowering and only those of equal or higher status might be able to bear it.

Though all the people gathered here today were those that could take it.

The Crown Prince Feng Shun and Crown princess Shang were both royals and were next in line to be the rulers of their empires. As such, Lady Kang's gaze was not much to them. Daoist Chu belonged to a sect and had faced the domineering gaze of the high elders and patriarch, and wasn't fazed by it.

In the case of Monk Hushu, he was a Buddhist monk and there was little that could sway his heart. The gaze of a woman was the farthest from it.

Qiao De was shrewd and had dealt with countless people before, whether they be experts stronger than him, or those of similar occupation as him. Thus he wasn't affected by it either. Not to mention, he was familiar with Lady Kang and had even met her in the past.

Ziran had been through tough times and was married to a domineering demoness. He was basically immune to the strong gaze of a woman.

As for Lin Mu, he was used to the Saintess now and thus found Lady Kang's gaze to be rather mild.

Instead of paying attention to that, Lin Mu was analyzing Lady Kang right now.

She wore Purple and White robes that were high grade Immortal robes and emanated faint Immortal Qi waves that showed that they had strong defensive capabilities. Lin Mu estimated them to be on the same level as the Imperial Robes that Feng Baxing wore during the tournament.

A long scarf could also be seen around Lady Kang's neck, which was actually an Immortal Weapon too. It was disguised to be part of her robes and matched the color scheme, but the faint immortal Qi fluctuations coming from them couldn't miss Lin Mu's senses.

'Another High Grade immortal weapon… Probably one that can defend her in close range.' Lin Mu estimated.

Lady Kang's hair was braided into a single thick and long braid.

Several ornaments were also woven into her braid, adding extra beauty to it. The ornaments were a mix of braid rings, ribbons, and hair pins, all of which had gemstones embedded in them.

These ornaments were placed in such a manner that from the back it looked like a swan was taking flight and the pattern was simply too unique. The gemstones on the ornaments even formed the features of the swan.

The ribbons were its wings, the braid rings were its body, while the hair pins were its legs. Finally, two large ruby gemstones intimated the eyes of the swan while a long silver hairpin functioned as its beak.

It was truly beautiful and nothing like Lin Mu had seen before. 'It's not just beautiful either… It's functional too… Every ornament is actually an Immortal tool too!' Lin Mu sensed.

Some of the ornaments worked as Spatial Storage tools while some were defensive immortal tools. Though the hair pins were all mid grade Immortal weapons with the one acting as a beak, a High Grade immortal weapon.

On top of her head, Lady Kang wore a coronet encrusted with a twelve diamond that shone like the stars. They also happened to be placed in the same manner as the crest of the Kang Clan which was the constellation Virgo.

Lin Mu didn't feel any immortal Qi fluctuations from the coronet, but had a great hunch that it was also an Immortal tool of some kind. Though its function was unknown and guessing it was impossible.

Her eyes were fox-like and were dark black in color as if made out of onyx. Red eye liner flared out from the side of her eyes and curled up, looking like a fox tail.

A light pink belt wrapped around the woman's waist which had several runes embroidered on it.

In her left hand, Lady Kang held an open paper fan which was also a High Grade Immortal weapon.

Lin Mu saw a painting on the fan, which depicted the scenery of a vast forest with a single river cutting through it.

Among all the women Lin Mu had seen so far, Lady Kang easily ranked in the top three in terms of beauty.

But the thing that stood out the most was her cultivation base. 'Is she… At the Sixth Tribulation stage of the Immortal realm too!?' Lin Mu was surprised by this the most.

She was actually as strong as the Crown Prince!

And this was just outwardly, there was no telling what other secrets she hid.
