Sword and Ice, Part IV

Silence reigned over the audience. No one said a word. Even Húndàn Wang was stunned into silence.

Mei Xilan’s face was revealed in all its unblemished jade-like glory. Her soft features greatly contrasted with her cold expression. It was easy to tell that she was young. Her cheeks retained their youthful baby fat. The almond shape of her eyes complimented her small, pert nose. Below were a pair of beautiful pink lips shaped like a bow. Even the rounded shape of her chin and jaw helped lend her the appearance of a young fairy.

Húndàn Wang’s softly spoken word caused Mei Xilan to raise a hand to her face. She pursed her lips just slightly upon realizing her veil was gone. After hesitating for a moment, she lowered her hand to her side and stared at her opponent.
