“I originally wanted to have Lu Liang kill your drive and establish an imposing air. Then, I’d have taken action and saved you as a matter of course. However, I didn’t expect Chu Pengfei to pop up halfway!”
Master Meng continued with a malicious expression, “Fortunately, Lu Liang was quick-witted and asked you to bet on weapons. Humph! Lou Qianxue, you better think carefully. Will you rather die than be my disciple?”
Lou Qianxue remained silent for a while. Then she raised her eyebrows. “Why do you have to take me as your disciple and even resort to using this kind of method?”
“To tell you the truth, Lou Qianxue, the person who really favors you is not me. It’s someone else. However, if you don’t promise to be my disciple, you’ll not be able to have any contact with that high and mighty person!” Master Meng’s eyes flickered. “In other words, if you promise to be my disciple, your future will be very bright!”
Lou Qianxue chuckled. “In this Tian Zhao Empire, is there such a high and mighty person that I’ll forever be unable to reach?”
She had even seen the most impressive and respected person in the Tian Zhao Empire, Emperor Ying.
Who couldn’t she have contact with?
“Humph, wretch! What does a country bumpkin like you, who came from a small city, knows? Now…”
Boom!
Master Meng strongly pressured Lou Qianxue with a huge force. “You just need to tell me whether you agree or not?”
A layer of cold sweat appeared on Lou Qianxue’s forehead. With a cold gaze, she looked at Master Meng and said, “Are you certain that you want to take action on me?”
“If you don’t promise me, you can forget about leaving here today!”
“Ha!” Lou Qianxue said with ridicule. “Chu Pengfei is waiting outside. Besides him, there were many other people at the Refinery Union. If I shout, many of them will enter this room, right? Do you want everyone to know what you’ve done?”
“You… ”
The two of them were in a state of mutual hostility. The atmosphere in the room was very tense…
At this moment…
Bang!
“Qianxue! Qianxue, are you alright?”
An anxious voice rang out, then four figures pushed the door of the refinery room open.
“Sister Xiaoxiao, An Shaoning, An Yuzhi, Chu Pengfei…” The corners of Lou Qianxue’s mouth curled up. “I’m fine.”
As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Meng Tianye. “Master Meng, we have finished talking about our matter. Can I leave?”
“You!” Master Meng’s face turned pale. His gaze paused as it landed on An Yuzhi and Chu Pengfei. Then, he maliciously said, “Wretch, you can’t avoid something forever. You still have to die at the weapons bet one month later!”
“!!!” The expressions of Lou Xiaoxiao, An Shaoning, An Yuzhi, and Chu Pengfei changed at the same time. They instantly shielded Lou Qianxue from the old man.
Lou Qianxue narrowed her eyes as she softly sneered. Then, she turned around and said, “Let’s go. We’ll talk about the matter when the time comes.”
The four of them hurriedly followed her and went out. Lou Xiaoxiao then anxiously asked, “Qianxue? What’s happening? We heard from Hong Qinghe and the others that you were brought to the Refinery Union. We thought that it was because of Zhu Qiaoling.
“Who would have known? We heard that it had nothing to do with Zhu Qiaoling only after coming here. But…
“Master Meng is one of the most outstanding characters in the weapon refinery world. He’s quite renowned in the Imperial city. Why did you offend him?”
As they conversed, they had already reached the hall in the Refinery Union.
Many people were still in the hall. When they saw Lou Qianxue’s group come out, they hurriedly shouted, “They are out. That Lou Qianxue is out…”
“I wonder what Master Meng told her. He had even stopped Second Young Master from following them…”
As the crowd discussed the matter…
Lou Qianxue vaguely smiled as she replied to Lou Xiaoxiao. “He insisted on taking me as his disciple. But I wasn’t willing to, so he got angry.”
