Master Yan… Master Yan knelt in front of Lou Qianxue?

Gazes of disbelief and dumbfounded expression appeared on everyone’s face. Their minds went blank, and they even forgot to breathe.

“Please get up,” Lou Qianxue calmly said. “Since I have spoken, I’ll save you. However… ” She looked at the dumbfounded crowd. “Are you sure you want to continue talking here?”

Master Yan acted like he had woken up from a dream. He hurriedly got up and said, “Miss Lou, can I have a word with you?”

Lou Qianxue nodded.

She was not someone who tried to be on good terms with everyone. Her behavior toward Master Yan was in consideration for her grandfather, Lou Potian.

Lou Potian was worried that Lou Xingchen would get the advantage over Lou Qianxue, and he revered Master Yan, and even said that Master Yan had the power to contend with the Zhu family from the imperial city. Hence, she took action as she wanted Master Yan to be indebted to her.

The agitated Master Yan led Lou Qianxue inside.

However…

“Hold on!”

Someone had interrupted them.

Master Yan unhappily looked up and saw two men and a woman walking over toward Lou Qianxue.

Lou Qianxue also glanced at them and immediately recognized the woman. She was An Linglong, the woman she had a conflict with at Qingfeng Hotel.

One of the men with her was her brother, An Zhenhua, and Lou Qianxue did not know the other man.

“Are you… that fellow from the An family?” Master Yan frowned. “What’s the matter?” This person is inconsiderate. He’s interrupting me from getting treatment?

“Yes, I’m An Shaoning from the An family.” An Shaoning’s face displayed a warm smile and gave others a good impression of him. With cupped fists, he said, “My distant cousin, Linglong, had a conflict with Miss Lou some time ago.”

The crowd suddenly came to a realization.

“The two young masters from two of the four renowned families of Liuyun Prefecture, the Li family and the Bai family, showed that they were on good terms with Miss Lou.”

“And the eldest daughter of the Su family had also spoken to Miss Lou.”

“Only the An family is an exception. Could it be that An Shaoning is bringing An Linglong to apologize?”

Unlike the crowd, Lou Qianxue did not think that was the case.

Because, she saw that An Linglong’s expression was arrogant and domineering. It wasn’t the demeanor of a person that wanted to apologize.

“So?” Lou Qianxue looked at An Linglong and asked, “What does Young Master An plan to do?”

An Shaoning smiled and said, “Although this is my cousin, I’m her brother in the end. With her biological brother around to stick out for her, she does not need me. However, Linglong had suffered in your hands. Zhenhua is guilty of not looking after his sister well, so I am here to seek justice from Miss Lou on behalf of my cousin, Linglong.”

His words defied everyone’s expectations, and silence descended in the place.

Lou Qianxue’s expression became cold. “Justice? In all fairness, An Linglong should not be the one seeking justice.”

An Linglong’s brother, An Zhenhua, stepped forward and cupped his fists. “I’m An Zhenhua from Baiyue City. Please enlighten me by having an exchange with me.”

Before Lou Qianxue could reply, Master Yan rebuked him, “Outrageous. What do you treat my place as? Is it a place where you can act however you want?” He wanted to protect Lou Qianxue.

Lou Qianxue’s eyebrows twitched as she said, “You’re not my opponent.”

An Zhenhua stared at Lou Qianxue. “Miss Lou, please enlighten me by having an exchange with me!”

Lou Qianxue knew that An Zhenhua was in the eighth level of the Spiritual realm. His cultivation was comparable to Xia Zheng, but Xia Zheng had died under her hands. So why did An Zhenhua still dare to challenge her?

Does he also want to seek death?

Only

An Zhenhua’s demeanor suggested otherwise. Furthermore, the arrogance he had shown in the Prefecture Governor’s banquet was gone, and she didn’t even see resentment toward her in his eyes. Yet, he was persistent on acting like this.

What does he want to do exactly?

Lou Qianxue frowned. “We’ll have to end our grievances sooner or later. Since you insist, then let’s do it.”

Everyone finally came back to their senses after the shock. They looked at An Zhenhua as if he were a fool.

“Has he gone silly?”

“Miss Lou is so impressive, and she’s even an important guest of Master Yan. An Zhenhua did not care about offending Master Yan by insisting to have an exchange with Miss Lou.”

“This is the rhythm of seeking death!”
