“Oh gosh! This was a prefecture competition. How did it become a battle between masters of the Mystic Martial realm…”
Seeing Leng Qianhan and Elder Hong with their drawn-out weapons, the crowd shrieked and immediately backed away.
“Quick! Let’s retreat further. We’d be in trouble if we get hurt.”
“But… I can see it now. The person who is right is Lou Qianxue. However, on a small scale, Lou Xingchen has the Prefectural Governor’s support. At a larger scale, she has Young Master Zhu backing her up. Lou Qianxue has limited abilities, and there’s no way she could compete with her.”
The descendants of the four big families in Liuyun Prefecture became rather hesitant at the moment.
Lou Qianxue and Lou Xingchen.
One had Master Yan and Leng Qianhan behind them; the other had the Prefectural Governor and the Zhu Family as her backer.
It was a tough problem.
However.
The Young Master of the An Family, An Shaoning, flew on stage and stood beside Lou Qianxue.
Bai Muyan looked at Li Tingtao. Since Li Tingtao didn’t make a move, neither did he.
Su Yingying from the Su Family went up when she saw An Shaoning move. She also stood beside Lou Qianxue.
The most shocking sight was that when Su Yingying moved, a blue figure landed in the ring as well.
It was actually Yan Gongqing, who Lou Qianxue had mercilessly defeated at Baicao Garden!
Lou Qianxue’s eyes slowly passed over the people on the stage, and a warm current flew through her heart. She felt her cold heart warm over because of them.
It was easier to make ‘friends’ when one saw the truth in adversity!
“Thank you all.” Lou Qianxue calmly said, “I, Lou Qianxue, have remembered the support all of you have given me today.”
At the same time.
On the elevated platform, Jiang Suying glared at Lou Potian. “What, old man? Do you choose that b*tch or Xingchen?”
Jiang Suying showed no respect for him. Lou Potian could not suppress the angry look on his face, but he found it tough to make a decision.
Deep down, he leaned toward Lou Qianxue. However, he couldn’t risk the entire Lou Family with it…
Just then, he spotted An Shaoning, Su Yingying, and Yan Gongqing on the ring and became surprised.
Outsiders would not hesitate to stand by Lou Qianxue, so as her grandpa, how could he fall behind?
A firm expression appeared on Lou Potian’s face, and a glow appeared in his old eyes. “Jiang Suying, when you entered the mansion back then, I never acknowledged you. Now, I will remind you again. The only daughter-in-law in the Lou Family is Lou Xuanji, and no one else!”
“You!” Jiang Suying’s face became sullen and red from the fury. “Well, well, well! Old man, I will make you regret your choice today! I will make you regret it!!”
The Prefectural Governor couldn’t be bothered about their argument. After all, the appearance of An Shaoning, Su Yingying, and Yan Gongqing on the stage represented the attitude of more than half of the powers in Liuyun Prefecture.
He had to show up.
He slowly stepped off the elevated platform and majestically walked up to the ring. A threatening gaze took over his eyes, as he said, “An Shaoning, Su Yingying, and Young Master Yan, today’s affairs are the affairs of adults. You juniors are in no place to make decisions! I believe that the three of you don’t want to offend the Zhu Family from the Imperial City, right?”
Because of their status, their every action had repercussions. By taking a stance today, they could offend the Zhu Family of the Imperial City.
Su Yingying looked hesitant, but she then glanced at Lou Qianxue. She thought that Lou Qianxue was so talented at a young age, and if this were to be her downfall, it would be a loss for not only the Liuyun Prefecture but also the entire Tian Zhao Dynasty!
She clenched her jaw and said. “I, Su Yingying, never regret any decision!”
An Shaoning always had the wisdom and stability way ahead of people his age. He smiled politely. “Prefectural Governor, your words are too heavy. I’m only representing myself at this stage today. I’m just helping my friend.”
“All of you…” The Prefectural Governor could not believe that these youngsters dared to rebut him.
The arrogant Yan Gongqing scoffed. “What a joke. Will our Yan Family be afraid of the Zhu Family? What’s more… I’m from the Alchemy King’s Mansion. Does the Eighth Zhu dare to mess with me?”
