Whish!
A snow-white figure leaped into the crowd like a phantom.
At the next moment…
Bam! Bam! Bam!
The group of foreign young cultivators dressed in magnificent clothes was flung backward. When they fell on the ground, they vomited fresh blood and let out loud groans.
“!!! D*mn it! Who kicked me?”
“D*mn it! There’s an expert! There’s an expert amongst them!”
A menacing expression appeared on the face of the man dressed in brocade. He could not hold back his anger as he wiped the bloodstain at the side of his lips.
Enduring the pain, he got up and looked at the crowd with vigilance. His gaze swiftly swept past everyone.
“The one who acted just now, come out!”
Lou Qianxue snorted. The crowd surrounding her sensed something as they looked at her one after another.
In an instant, all the gazes in the entire place, including those of the foreign young cultivators dressed in magnificent clothes, landed on Lou Qianxue.
Lou Qianxue raised her eyebrows and coldly looked at them. “If one does not learn manners, one won’t know how to behave! Don’t be so arrogant in other people’s territory the next time. Otherwise, it won’t be as simple as the beating you got today!”
“You! B*tch, it was you who kicked us? You’re seeking—”
Before he could finish his sentence…
Pa!
A green vine suddenly shot out from the ground, and its rattan fiercely slapped that person’s face.
“Your mouth stinks. You deserve to be slapped!”
“B*tch! You dare!”
Pa!
Another slap…
“You… you… ah ah ah ah, you dare…”
Pa! Pa! Pa!
In just a few seconds, that person’s face swelled. Along with his face, his pride had also taken a hit.
However, when he saw that the cold and ruthless Lou Qianxue did not have any intention to stop, he knew that it was pointless to scold her. He finally broke down amidst the pain and humiliation, crying for mercy.
“I’m in the wrong… wu wu wu… I’m in the wrong. I have sinned. I shouldn’t have been so arrogant. Don’t hit me… wu wu wu… Don’t hit me!”
When the passersby on the street saw this, they cheered in excitement one after another.
However, the companions of the man dressed in brocade frowned and warily looked at Lou Qianxue. “Who are you? What sorcery are you using? Why did you take action against us?”
“If you’re capable, show us your face! Do you consider yourself a hero, hiding and covering yourself?”
“I’m just a weak girl. How can I be considered a hero?” Lou Qianxue calmly said, “I’m not furious, and I don’t wish to kill anyone. Use this opportunity to leave now.”
“You… Very well! You dared to talk to us like this! I’ll remember you!” The man dressed in brocade and the others firmly believed that Lou Qianxue knew sorcery. Even though they could not hold back their anger, they did not dare to act. They could only show displeasure on their faces as they furiously left.
Cheers broke out amongst the crowd.
The men hurt by these foreigners thanked Lou Qianxue. “Miss, thank you for helping us.”
“Miss, how do we address you? Why are you in Liuyun Prefecture? I’m willing to become your guide if you require one.”
“…” A tinge of helplessness swept past Lou Qianxue’s eyes, and she smiled. “That won’t be necessary. Farewell.”
After saying that, she hurriedly left.
However…
“Miss.”
Before she could take two steps, an elderly voice stopped her.
At the same time, a powerful aura locked onto her body.
Lou Qianxue sensed it due to her keen astuteness. Her gaze fell as she stopped walking. “You are?”
An elder with white hair, a white beard, and a kind face, slowly walked over to her. “I’m Mo Ci, a first-class teacher from the Imperial Academy.”
Lou Qianxue suddenly came to a realization. “You’re the teacher the Imperial Academy sent to the Liuyun Prefecture to recruit students?”
“That’s right, Miss. I’ve observed you and discovered that you’re very fast despite being quite young. Your skills are also very good. I wonder if you’re willing to join our Imperial Academy?”
“… Sorry, I don’t plan to do so at this moment.”
“Miss, you’ve traveled so far to come here. Isn’t it because you want to join the Imperial Academy? Why are you still rejecting me? Could it be that you think that I’m a swindler? No, I’m really a teacher from the Imperial Academy. Moreover, I was also the one who hosted that admission examination in Fengyang prefecture two years ago.”
“Two years ago?” Lou Qianxue astutely caught these three words. “It was you?”
