62: Chapter 62 You are not Luo Qingtong!
Hearing Luo Qingtong's words, Luo Xinning's complexion turned deathly pale.
She found that Luo Qingtong was very different from the person she remembered!
Once Luo Qingtong was confirmed alive upon her return, Luo Xinning initially felt very panicked!
She never expected Luo Qingtong to be so lucky, being able to return alive in such circumstances!
If she had known, she wouldn't have exposed her true identity!
But Luo Xinning was only panicked for a moment before quickly calming down.
She understood Luo Qingtong, a woman so kind-hearted as to be nearly foolishly weak!
As long as she made up a lie, that the person who harmed her wasn't herself but someone pretending to be her, and then cry a bit, Luo Qingtong would quickly soften!
With so many tricks up her sleeve, how could she not handle such a foolish woman?
But now, Luo Xinning was no longer sure.
She discovered that Luo Qingtong had changed!
The girl stood below the steps, looking up at her, and despite her disadvantaged position, she emanated a commanding aura as if standing at the pinnacle!
Just by looking at her, with a faint smile playing on her lips, it sent chills of terror through Luo Xinning's heart!
"You…
You're not Luo Qingtong!"
Luo Qingtong would never speak to her like this!
Nor would she have such a chilling aura!
"Indeed!
I am certainly not the Luo Qingtong you knew!"
The young girl's statement was shocking.
"Having died once, how could I still be the same foolish Luo Qingtong who didn't even know how she died?
Don't you think so?
My dear little sister?"
The smile at the edge of Luo Qingtong's lips was incredibly radiant.
Despite the warm weather of late spring with its hint of summer heat, Luo Xinning couldn't help but feel a bone-chilling coldness emanating from within!
The other party's words were impeccable.
But Luo Xinning knew that this person was no longer the Luo Qingtong she remembered!
Or perhaps, having traversed the gates of life and death, Luo Qingtong had completely transformed!
She was no longer someone Luo Xinning could control at will!
Luo Xinning realized this very clearly.
Her entire body stiffened instantly.
No one understood better than she did what it meant for Luo Qingtong to no longer be foolish!
It meant her status within the Luo Family would plummet dramatically!
It meant she would be thrown to the bottom of the muck!
However, luckily, she had already obtained what she wanted!
For Luo Qingtong to take it back was nothing but a dream!
Even if Luo Qingtong was no longer foolish, it didn't matter!
She wouldn't find any evidence of her own wrongdoing!
Without evidence, she couldn't do anything to her!
And with the gains in her own hands, she could still surpass Luo Qingtong in the future!
She would let her know that even without her, she could still carve out her own place in the world!
"It seems big sister has some misunderstandings about me." Luo Xinning pursed her lips and took a slight step back, putting on a weak appearance.
"I know big sister hates me for making the suggestion that you go to Jiuyu Mountain for a breakthrough training, but I certainly didn't expect such a catastrophe to occur on Jiuyu Mountain." Luo Xinning's voice was gentle, filled with intense regret.
"Thankfully you are alright, big sister, otherwise I wouldn't know how I'd live with the regret and guilt!
But I also have to thank you, for because I was too heartbroken by your departure, I found my Martial Arts Realm breaking through its shackles, rising several ranks in one go."
As she spoke, she looked towards Luo Qingtong, and slowly, word by word, said: "I am now a Martial Arts Master Fourth Rank!
Big sister, are you happy for me?"
There was a flicker of pride in Luo Xinning's eyes as she mentioned becoming a Martial Arts Master Fourth Rank, quite pleased with herself.
She looked towards Luo Qingtong, waiting for her reaction.
