The flames disappeared to reveal Lou Qianxue’s clean, tidy dress and her exquisite appearance. It didn’t even look like she had just undergone a tough battle. Anyone could tell that even if she had to continue the fight, she could still handle the situation with ease.
Lou Qianxue slowly walked toward Suo Yingying and Xu Tailang. She frostily looked down at Xu Tailang, who threw up blood nonstop with a frail appearance.
“Xu Tailang, you did not manage to defeat me in ten breaths, while I defeated you in three moves!”
Xu Tailang’s eyes suddenly went wide.
Boom!
He jolted, threw up more blood, and collapsed into the embrace of Suo Yingying. His lips quivered, and he couldn’t even speak.
Lou Qianxue remained indifferent. “You said that you wanted to let me know what a true genius and a true Chosen One meant! Haha, this is all you’re capable of!”
“You… you…” Xu Tailang’s finger trembled as he pointed it at her. He looked at her with chagrin and despair!
Lou Qianxue raised her brows. “However, you were right about one thing. In front of absolute power, talent is nothing! Look at you, the so-called best student of the Imperial Academy and even the best young man in the Tian Zhao Empire! Yet, you couldn’t even fight back even a bit in the face of absolute power…”
Gasp! Gasp! Xu Tailang froze, then fainted from the humiliation.
“Brother Xu! Brother Xu!” Suo Yingying anxiously pricked her finger and sent her blood into Xu Tailang’s mouth…
Lou Qianxue narrowed her eyes as she saw it.
Zhen Guogong stood by the side and did his best to breathe as quietly as possible. In the past, he could take advantage of his old age and joke with Lou Qianxue, but now…
He looked at the cold and aloof Lou Qianxue and decided to be smart by remaining silent.
A while later,
“He won’t die. However, the Whirlwind Obliteration was surprisingly formidable. He doesn’t have Abnormal Fire anymore, and on top of that, his cultivation was also sucked away. Now, he’s probably at the first level of the Mystic Martial Realm.”
“What?” Suo Yingying’s body swayed. “Brother Xu is so prideful… He would not be able to accept that his cultivation has fallen from the Heavenly Martial Realm to the Mystic Martial Realm! You! You did this!” Suo Yingying furiously looked at Lou Qianxue. “Why did you have to attack Brother Xu so viciously!”
“Suo Yingying.” Lou Qianxue said in an emotionless voice. “If you hadn’t mentioned your sister, based on what he did to my family and friends, both of you would be dead by now!”
Suo Yingying’s breathing hitched, and her tears instantly fell.
Lou Qianxue watched her silently cry.
After crying for a while, Suo Yingying finally asked Lou Qianxue. “Where is my sister?”
“If you want to know about your sister, come and ask me yourself.” Lou Qianxue turned to look at Zhen Guogong. “Have I come first in this martial arts competition?”
Zhen Guogong regained his senses and quickly nodded. “Yes! I now announce that the winner of this martial arts competition is Miss Lou Qianxue! She will be the assistant general in the expedition to the border!”
Swish!
The crowd unanimously looked at Lou Qianxue will fervor.
“Eighteen! She is only eighteen years old, yet she can defeat a Heavenly Martial Realm expert with only a Mystic Martial Realm cultivation! What a genius!”
“The 28-year-old Heavenly Martial Realm Xu Tailang is indeed formidable, but he’s no match for Lou Qianxue. Lou Qianxue is the true Chosen One!”
“She would be incredible when she fully matures in the future… We must not offend a person like her. We have to get into her good books!”
Meanwhile, members of the Zhu family, the Xu family, and the Lu family, who had previously offended Lou Qianxue, became gloomy.
At the same time…
Amongst the crowd, a youth dressed in gray looked at Lou Qianxue in despair. “That’s right! She’s a true Chosen One who can’t be offended! So how am I supposed to avenge my Xia family, which she destroyed in Baiyan City two and a half years ago?”
The youth looked on for a while and finally set up his mind. He gritted his teeth and turned around. “If I stay in the Tiao Zhao Empire, I will never get a chance to defeat her! I have to leave Tian Zhao and go to the Eastern Region! To the Extraterritorial! I will find a famed master and become a powerful elite! Then, I will return to Tian Zhao and destroy the Lou family!”
