Chapter 498: Old Acquaintance

After walking through the streets of the Imperial City, Lou Qianxue finally found the Imperial Academy.

Although the Imperial Academy was not as luxurious and grand as the imperial palace, it still looked impressive, stern, and mighty. When she reached its entrance, an ancient and historic aura overwhelmed her.

Many youthful and enthusiastic students were continuously walking through the doors.

After looking at the entrance for a while, she walked toward the academy.

Other than a few people, who stole a couple of glances at her since she looked unfamiliar, most of the people focused on their work.

“Hello.” Lou Qianxue stopped a female student. “May I ask how I can get to the registration office for new students?”

“The registration office…”

The female student had just replied, when…

“Hey! Are you a new junior sister?”

“How pretty! Where are you going? Tell me. I’ll bring you there.”

Two teenagers dressed in luxurious robes strode toward Lou Qianxue and the girl, interrupting their conversation.

They had been observing Lou Qianxue for a long time, waiting for an opportunity. Now, they had finally made their move.

“S-senior Brother.” The female student, who was about to answer Lou Qianxue, turned pale as if she had seen a predator. She quickly whispered to Lou Qianxue, “Ask someone else.”

Then, she rushed away as if a malicious ghost were pursuing her…

When the other students saw this scene, they could not help but stop and discuss it amongst themselves.

“Xu Erlang is harassing pretty female students again.”

“Poor girl. She’s in for a bad time.”

“But what else can we do? He is from the Xu Family, one of the five most powerful families in the Imperial City. The head of the Xu family is a Mystic Martial realm expert, and the family also has a fourth-grade alchemist… Oh, wait! The fourth-grade alchemist died in Lingxi Prefecture! Despite this, his elder brother, Xu Tailang, is the top student in the Imperial Academy! How many people in the academy can afford to anger them?”

“Yeah! Other than the royal family, the five most powerful families, and the other ancient families, who would dare to lay a finger on him?”

“It’s such a pity… This pretty girl is to be blamed too. She’s so good-looking, yet she came here alone…”

“…” Lou Qianxue expressionlessly listened to the discussions and gathered information. After knowing the background of the two men in front of her, a strange glint appeared in her eyes.

I wonder what Xu Erlang would think if he knew that I’m the Jade-Masked Blast who killed his family’s fourth-grade alchemist…

When she thought of that, her lips curved upward into a smile.

She was about to speak, when…

“Qianxue? Miss Qianxue?”

A surprised voice suddenly rang out.

“Huh?”

This voice sounds familiar!

The stunned Lou Qianxue turned around and asked, “Hong Qinghe? It’s you!”

The top fighter of the Fengyang prefecture, Hong Qinghe, also known as Young Master Qinghe, strode toward her with an overjoyed expression.

“Miss Qianxue? It’s really you! I heard that you… I was devastated for a while. After all, with the talent you had, you should’ve succeeded further in life.”

Another handsome and elegant young man was with Hong Qinghe. He slowly walked over and stood beside Hong Qinghe.

When he arrived, the students surrounding them respectfully lowered their heads and greeted at the same time, “Senior Brother An!”

“Senior Brother An!”

The handsome and elegant young man nodded at everyone in acknowledgment. Then, he looked at the two teenagers blocking Lou Qianxue’s way and said, “Xu Erlang, Gu Hai, this lady is my friend. You don’t have to trouble yourselves to welcome her.”

Both of them warily glanced at him and reluctantly replied in a cold tone, “Fine. Since you’re the one who asked, we’ll leave.”
