Once Lou Jingfeng left the yard, Lou Xingchen smiled. “Qianxue, listen to father’s words and obediently leave. On account of you having taught me the complete [Mountain River Sword Technique], I will not make things difficult for you.”
“Get lost! Don’t act so fake here and disgust people!” Lou Qianxue was filled with hatred as she stared at Lou Xingchen. This woman was the daughter of that bitch, who her father had newly-married six years ago. Just because she wanted the complete martial arts, Xingchen had even deceived her feelings for six years, while being by her side. How could she not hate her?
“Lou Qianxue.” When Xingchen saw that Lou Qianxue would not fall for her tricks as she did before, she changed her attitude. She immediately became ruthless. “Don’t refuse a toast, only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Surely, you also don’t wish to be like your mother, that old bitch, who had her bones broken, her practice disabled, and thrown out of City Lord mansion?”
What?
Mother…
Lou Qianxue choked as she breathed. Both her eyes had turned red, and her hands, which were grasped together, could not control themselves from trembling.
As Lou Xingchen saw this, she displayed a proud expression and joked. “Tsk! I never expected the indifferent you, Qianxue, to have this kind of expression. It is rare. It is really rare… Oh right! Do you know why we did not kill that old bitch? Haha, the reason is very simple. Although she became a useless person, that devastatingly beautiful face was still good. You say… how will a beautiful woman who is physically very weak, and alone without anyone to rely on, be treated like?”
Mother! Lou Qianxue experienced a blackout, and she nearly collapsed. Both Lou Xingchen and her mother are so vicious. They have such malicious hearts…
Lou Xingchen, who had been speaking, paused for a moment. She was filled with malice as she looked at Lou Qianxue. “Speaking of it, you are also like your mother, who is a useless piece of trash. You are only born with a pretty face. Say, what do you think you will meet with, when you walk out of this mansion now without the city lord’s protection?”
It was the only reason why she hadn’t killed Lou Qianxue yet.
“You! Go to hell! Beast! Mother saw that you were pitiful back then and brought you into the mansion. You actually treated her like this!”
“Ha… you still say! If not for her, I would have already restored my identity! If not for her teaching me the [Mountain River Sword Technique], father also wouldn’t let me stay as a servant who bowed down at your side… ”
“Ungrateful!” Lou Qianxue was burning with fury. Endless pain, anger, unhappiness, and hatred were colliding in her chest. She was on the verge of losing control.
Lou Xingchen stood at a side. She extremely enjoyed the pain and unhappiness that she had brought to Lou Qianxue. It somewhat distorted her excited expression.
After a long time,
Lou Qianxue suddenly calmed down from her unstable state. She looked cold and furious. She stared at Lou Xingchen as if she was looking at a dead person. She ruthlessly took out a dagger and suddenly slit her palm.
In an instant, fresh blood splattered!
The drops splashed onto her beautiful and fair face. The sight made her look like a vicious ghost. She raised her blood-stained palm, and with a voice so cold that it seemed to come from hell, she declared, ” Lou Xingchen, I, Lou Qianxue, use my blood to take a vow today. If I do not die, I will defeat you at the prefecture house competition in a month’s time. I will make you lose your reputation and return you back 100 times of everything that you and your mother have staked on us!!”
Lou Qianxue’s manner was stern. Due to her cold and decisive voice, Lou Xingchen’s whole body felt a chill. Fear actually rose at the bottom of her heart. She froze for a while, but in the end, she angrily suppressed the other feelings in her heart. She sneered and said sarcastically, “Ha, defeat me? You? Lou Qianxue? A piece of trash who cannot master the elementary force! It is bright daylight. Have you not woken up from your dream?”
Ignoring the words spoken, Lou Qianxue directly turned around and left.
…
On her way back, Lou Qianxue had grasped her hands all the way. Fresh red blood dripped as she walked. However, her palm was already numb from the pain, and she did not feel anything at all.
Suddenly, a servant of the city lord mansion brought a man dressed in Chinese clothes and came over.
Both parties met on the way. The opposite party looked in disgust at the blood dripping from Lou Qianxue’s hand. Frowning, he said, “Lou Qianxue, both my father and I, unanimously, feel that your talent does not match that of me, Su Mingyang. Hence, the partner for the marriage alliance of our Su and Lou families will immediately change to Lou Xingchen. I hope that you can be sensible enough and not pester me!”
Lou Xingchen! It’s Lou Xingchen again!
Lou Qianxue came back to her senses. Both her eyes were blood-red and extremely cold. She did not even spare him a glance. “Get lost!”
Lou Qianxue’s cold and angry look froze Su Mingyang in his original position. Only after quite a while, did he come back to his senses. He looked at the view of her back and softly scolded, “Lunatic!”
