Strongest Eccentric Consort

A while later, Teacher Mo passed the letter from the Third Royal Highness to Lou Jinglei. Thereafter, he got up and bid him farewell.

After he sent him off, Lou Jinglei’s face distorted; he looked extremely menacing.

“Big Brother,” Forth Master Lou immediately asked him, “have you heard about the matter outside?”

“Yeah, I did.” Lou Jinglei replied with a sullen expression, “I really didn’t expect that group of brats to be so good. All of them actually got into the Imperial Academy within such a short period.”

“So, Big Brother, we…”

“I know what you mean. I originally wanted to kill them, but they have made a name for themselves in the final admission trial this time. They have the attention of everyone from Tian Zhao, as well as the teachers from the Imperial Academy. If these brats unknowingly die, I’m afraid it will be disadvantageous for our Prefectural Governor’s Mansion.”

“Big Brother! You still want to kill them?” Lou Jingtao softly exclaimed.

“Why?” Lou Jinglei unhappily looked at him. “They may know our secret. Why shouldn’t I kill them?”

“Big Brother, I’m afraid you have not heard of another matter. Actually, even if they hadn’t gotten into the Imperial Academy, we wouldn’t have been able to touch them.”

“Ha, what? How can that be possible? Had they failed to get into Imperial Academy, I’d have had them killed. Isn’t it as simple as crushing an ant? Why can’t they be touched?” Lou Jinglei mockingly said.

“Big Brother, you’ve really underestimated them. Do you know that there’s a low-profile, quiet man called Leng Qianhan, who has a scar on his face, amongst them? That man is aHeavenly Martial Realm expert!”

“What?” Shock took over Lou Jinglei’s face as he stared widely in disbelief. “Heavenly Martial Realm? Another Heavenly Martial Realm expert?”

He stared at Lou Jingtao in disbelief. “Heavenly Martial Realm? Are you certain it’s the Heavenly Martial Realm? When did the Heavenly Martial Realm become so common? One Dan Taiyuan at the Heavenly Martial Realm was already very outstanding, and this Leng Qianhan, he… how’s it possible that he’s also…”

Lou Jingtao’s expression also worsened. “Yes, Heavenly Martial Realm! We had no idea at all that a Heavenly Martial Realm expert was carrying out his activities right in front of our eyes for so long.”

“Qingyun City… Lou Potian… What capability does he have that two Heavenly Martial Realm experts are backing him! Moreover, he even knows Master Gongsun, such an important character! What good luck do they have?” Lou Jinglei was envious, unhappy, and afraid at the same time. “Fortunately, I didn’t take action and offend Leng Qianhan just now. Otherwise… the consequences would’ve been unimaginable!”

“I’ll go and find out whether this Leng Qianhan is connected to Lou Qianxue, just like Master Gongsun.”

“Lou Qianxue? Her again! How good would it be if she hadn’t heard about our secret… Forget it, let these people remain here. When Lou Qianxue returns, I’ll decide again after seeing her attitude! Besides this, Number Four, pass down the instruction to host them well at the banquet tonight, especially that Young Master Leng!”

The turbulent dark current temporarily calmed down in the silence.

Five days later, ‘Gong Sunheng,’ the demonically-talented alchemist from the Alchemy King’s mansion appeared at the Alchemy Union in Fengyang prefecture.

When Lou Xiaoxiao heard about this, her eyes instantly lit up. “Master Gongsun? He’s back? What about Qianxue? This won’t do. I’ll go and ask. Who knows, Qianxue may also be at the Alchemy Union.”

“I’ll go too,” Ye Zhuixun hurriedly said.

Leng Qianhan naturally stood out. “I’ll protect you all.”

“Let’s go.”

As the three of them hurriedly rushed to the Alchemy Union, they coincidentally bumped into ‘Gong Sunheng.’ He had come here to take some herbs and was now preparing to leave.

“Master Gongsun.”

Lou Xiaoxiao loudly shouted for Master Gongsun to stop before she quickly went forward. She then bowed to him and asked, “Master Gongsun, when did you come back? I wonder if Lou Qianxue also came back together with you?”

“Qianxue?” ‘Gong Sunheng’s’ handsome face was extremely pale. His evil gaze swept past Lou Xiaoxiao, and the corners of his lips revealed a mocking sneer. “Lou Qianxue? She is dead.”
