Hearing someone speak to Lou Qianxue, Lou Xiaoxiao regained his senses. She hurried to follow close.
Lou Qianxue looked at her. Then she turned her gaze away and continued walking forward.
The duo reached the training hall soon enough.
The place was packed. Lou Qianxue gave her companion a confused look.
After interacting for just a short while, Lou Xiaoxiao had actually understood Lou Qianxueâs doubts. She explained, âWe are still a month away from the Prefecture battle. But other than the default candidate Lou Xingchen, there are still five candidates in Qingyun City that are undecided. So, these few days, the city lord and the various elders will be more strict with the training for the younger generation. They hope that the younger generation will be outstanding in Qingyun city and participate in the prefecture battle.â
Lou Qianxue nodded upon hearing it. âOh, this is why it is so...â
She had once sworn to beat Lou Xingchen in the Prefecture battle. So, she had to obtain one of the five vacant slots!
Lou Qianxue was thinking when someone dragged her down.
It was a youth in his twenties.
âUseless trash.â The youth said in an arrogant and threatening manner. He was really domineering. âThis isnât the place for you. Get out of the city lordâs mansion, quickly. Free up your position of being a princess in the house!â
Only then, did Lou Qianxue realize that the âuseless trashâ meant her. In an instant, her eyes went cold. She looked at Lou Xiaoxiao. âWho is he?â
It wasnât strange that she did not know. Indeed, since her mother left the city lordâs mansion, she had been living in isolation. She seldom appeared before others. Naturally, she wasnât like Lou Xingchen and Lou Qianyue, who knew how to behave well. They had good chemistry with others. So, they had many followers.
âYou actually donât know who I am?â The youth asked her. To him, it was an insult if anyone in the city lordâs mansion did not know him.
Lou Xiaoxiao was dreadful towards him. She whispered an introduction to Lou Qianxue. âHe is Lou Feng, the youngest son of the fifth elder. He lived in Sifang City when he was young and only came here recently. No wonder you donât know him.â
âOh, so itâs him.â Lou Qianxue had long heard that the fifth elderâs wife was from a powerful family in Sifang City. Their power was on par with that of the city lordâs mansion.
Lou Xiaoxiao thought about the youthâs purpose in coming here. Then she added. âHe is Lou Xingchenâs number one fan.â
âWhat about it, useless trash? Now that you know who I am, are you afraid? Let me tell you, if you keep hogging Miss Xingchenâs spot, I will kill you!â As he spoke, he threw cold and eerie glares in a threatening manner. It looked as if he was going to devour humans.
Clearly, he really had murderous intentions for Lou Qianxue.
Lou Qianxue felt coldness all around her. She, too, felt murderous intent building up in her heart.
She was not a saint. If someone wanted to kill her, she wouldnât sit doing nothing!
Lou Xiaoxiaoâs expression also changed. âLou Feng, Miss Qianxue is the city lordâs daughter. How dare you speak so freely?â
âHumph! With my grandpaâs ability, if I really killed her, would anyone in the city lordâs mansion even dare to speak half a word?â Not only was his grandpaâs career extraordinary in Sifang City, but he was also a second-grade alchemist. He had a lot of connections, so no one dared to offend him easily.
It was also why Lou Xingchen had picked him and complained about how badly Lou Qianxue treated him. It was the reason that he wanted to go against Lou Qianxue.
Lou Feng remained arrogant and domineering. He was unreasonable. Yet, Lou Qianxue was not fearful at all. Her eyes were cold, and she stared at Lou Feng as if he were a dead man.
In her previous world, whoever wanted to kill her would not live past another day. As for Lou Feng, he was naturally not an exception!
The three of them were having a face-off.
Suddenly!
âWhy are you all standing here for?â A cold voice reprimanded.
The three of them saw Lou Jingfeng and the nine elders and realized that they had walked over some time ago.
Lou Feng lowered his domineering attitude. Together with Lou Xiaoxiao, they bowed towards them.
But Lou Qianxue did not move at all.
Lou Jingfeng was instantly displeased.
At the same time, the nine elders focused their eyes on Lou Qianxue. When they took a glance, they seem to have some thoughts.
