The Whispering Wind Sword

22. Chapter 22's

Withholding haru Ding Tao nodded, that was Ding Tao's last memory of his teacher before leaving.

Now in front of the gates of the Huang family home, those memories haunted him. Will Great Lord Huang want that sword? If the sword is asked, what should he do or say? If they were to use force, could he resist and defend the sword? Or will he have to run and leave the sword in the hands of the Huang family?

One by one Ding Tao stepped up, each step followed by a question and each question did not also he found a satisfactory answer.

Had there not been a girl who had already captured her heart in the house, had Huang Ying Ying not been there, Ding Tao's feet would have carried her running thousands of li, away from the house.

Ding Tao was a young man who knew earnestly about responsibility and duty. He knew, if in time he had to choose between love and his duty to the country, though grievously he would choose the latter.

But Ding Tao was also a young man who was in love drunk. His brain confirmed the worries of Gu Tong Dang his teacher, but his heart whispered hope.

Though inwardly there was a fear like a mountain that overcame his breast, that his coming would only bring the seeds of enmity between himself and the girl he loved.

But the hope that that feared was not the case, that his arrival would be received with open arms, gave strength for him to step up.

The distance traveled was not an infinite distance away, although every step taken was so heavy, it was finally up to Ding Tao in front of the gate of the Huang family.

The doorkeeper did not not not not not recognize the young man, but the romance of Ding Tao's face as well as the changes that were now on him, made them hesitate to reprimand the young man.

Although there were no words spoken, seeing the tense look on the young man's face, the hearts of the two Huang family's doorkeepers also grew grim.

After they came face to face, then Ding Tao realized their situation at that time. By gathering all his courage on the edge of all his worries.

Smiling kindly he bowed respectfully, ―Brother Ling, brother Bu, this is me Ding Tao.‖ermark

―Ah... oh.. ah Ding Tao, so this is Ding Tao. Yes, yes, we felt we recognized you, but you were so different that we were interested in it.‖ermark

―Yes, yes, now you are much taller than us.‖ermark

The welcome of the two friendly doormen helped Ding Tao to get rid of his doubts. His heart was honest, it was easy to clear from suspicion. If he was still awkward, the answers of the two doormen removed his awkwardness. While scratching his head he laughed.

―Yes, somehow my body just keeps getting taller, sometimes I worry that he doesn't stop getting taller and someday I'll have to sleep on two beds arranged in a row.‖ermark

―Wah not only increases in height, it seems that you also increase in clay. What exactly happened two years ago?‖ermark

―True, we were all confused by your actions, are you really running away girls people?‖ermark

, tease one of him between them while twirling his eyeballs.

With a rosy face Ding Tao returned their blows,

―Do not spread gossip carelessly.‖ermark

Then in a more serious tone he continued,

―My arrival today actually wants to face the great Lord Huang Jin, to apologize and explain the reason for my departure two years ago.‖ermark

―Hemm, it seems so mysterious, don't you want to share it with your old friend?‖ermark

Smiling politely, Ding Tao replied,

―Brother Ling, it's not like I can't believe your mouth is leaking it. Only the matter is a little sensitive, I better talk about it first with the great Lord Huang Jin.‖ermark

Laughing with laughter the two guards finally allowed Ding Tao to enter to meet the great Lord Huang Jin,

―Just look for him in the main building, I just saw him walking in that direction along with some elders and their children.‖ermark

With a much lighter heart Ding Tao stepped foot towards the main building. Every time he met an old acquaintance of course did not forget he nodded and greeted.

By the time he reached the front of the main building, his heart was already airy and clear of all worries. What was imagined was the happy smile of young lady Huang, perhaps a little angry and a few punches, but each blow would actually make her happier.

With a puffed up smile on his lips, Ding Tao knocked on the door.
