Lou Qianxue narrowed her eyes and coldly stared at Master Meng. “If Young Master An, Second Young Master, and Xiaoxiao hadn’t arrived in time, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t be able to stand here unscathed today. Although I might not have been your match back then, now, I’m different!”
A look of disdain appeared in her eyes as she continued, “Master Meng, attack! I will never let someone who wants to kill me remain alive in this world!”
“How dare you! This is the Refinery Union. Attack me if you dare!”
Master Meng could not even handle a mere dagger from her, let alone Lou Qianxue herself.
He spun around and fled.
“You’re trying to escape? It’s too late!”
Lou Qianxue immediately chased after him.
Only then did the audience return to their senses.
“Oh my god! This is really a drastic turn of events. Wasn’t this just a bet between Lou Qianxue and Lu Liang? How did it suddenly turn into Lou Qianxue and Master Meng’s feud?”
“I never expected Master Meng to be such a shameless person!”
“Look at Lu Liang. Although he lost, he was willing to admit defeat. Without a word, he slit his throat and committed suicide. And what about Master Meng? He did all sorts of shameless things, yet he still acts all high and mighty. His sanctimonious attitude is really disgusting!”
As the crowd watched Lou Qianxue fight with Master Meng, they cursed in disgust. “Such a shameless person does not deserve to live. I hope that Miss Lou will win!”
In the crowd, Gong Sunyu looked at Master Lan with an ambiguous smile. “Is she the Lou Qianxue you said was not worthy of respect?”
Master Lan profusely sweated as his face turned ashen. “I was wrong. The one who is truly not worthy of respect is Master Meng!”
As the crowd discussed the matter…
Someone exclaimed, “She’s winning! Miss Lou is going to win!”
They looked up in shock.
After taking Lou Qianxue’s punch, Master Meng swayed and fell down the stage…
“As a refinery master, you led your disciples astray. By killing you here today, I’m seeking justice for the disciples whose futures you’ve hindered!”
Whoosh!
The Wu Jin Meteorite Iron instantly appeared in Lou Qianxue’s hands.
Raising her sword, she closed in on Master Meng. She was just about to attack…
“Stop!”
However, a loud bellow rang out.
It stunned everyone.
At the next moment.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several figures jumped down from the second floor of the Refining Union at the same time.
In the blink of an eye, multiple people appeared on the stage, all of them exuding powerful auras.
There was a middle-aged man amongst them, who had white hair and a serious expression. A powerful and dignified aura surrounded him. As he sternly stared at Lou Qianxue, a look of intimidation appeared in his eyes.
“Lou Qianxue,” He said in a displeased and firm tone, “today, you forced Lu Liang to his death and humiliated Master Meng. That’s enough! After all, this is the territory of the Refinery Union, and Master Meng is a teacher here. I advise you to stop right now!”
“Enough?” Lou Qianxue shook her head. “No, it’s not enough! Today…” She stood up tall and straight. With an indifferent expression, she pointed her sword at Master Meng. “He must die!”
“Impossible!” The middle-aged man refused. “Master Meng is one of the few fourth-grade refiners in the Imperial City. Since he’s also a master of the Refinery Union, we will not stand idle and watch someone kill him!”
The other refiners, who had appeared at the same time, also glared at Lou Qianxue with hostility.
One of them even threatened her, “If you dare touch him again, don’t blame us for being impolite!”
