Xia Wanqing's eyes ignited with fighting spirit again. She was determined to burn her life. Luo Wuji, as expected of the male lead who was an appendage to the female lead, saw that Xia Wanqing was determined to fight with all her might.
He forcefully broke free from the restraints of the two elders and unleashed his strongest attack: "Fearless Fist!"
The enormous fist, enveloped in golden spiritual energy, tore through the air with a clanging sound as it was swung, like a massive boulder hurtling towards Lou Xuanzhi.
"Holy Son!" Upon seeing this, Elder Yang and Elder Liu shouted. In order to prevent Luo Wuji from getting hurt, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush forward.
Seeing this, Xia Wanqing gave Luo Wuji a smile, a smile filled with indescribable emotion.
But all of this was just a joke in Lou Xuanzhi's eyes. Xia Wuxin, who was already injured, saw this and sent out a distress message. There was no other way but to ask the Supreme Elder for help!
"You're asking for death!" Upon seeing this, Xie Ji'an and the others rushed forward without saying a word.
Little Ji Su stood at a distance, staring wide-eyed at everything, feeling that the world was so vast.
Meanwhile, Qiyue, who was far away, did not see Lou Xuanzhi move for a long time. She assumed that Lou Xuanzhi was angry because she was still thinking about their past relationship, even though he was clearly avenging her.
She didn't know how to explain, but she was worried about her master. Perhaps for her master's safety, she should tell him everything now.
I don't know if my master believes it or not.
There's nothing we can do about it.
Thinking it over, Qiyue used a secret technique to communicate with Lou Xuanzhi despite the immense pressure.
"Master, actually the world we live in is %#?$#%&#?$#%."
"What did you say?" Lou Xuanzhi couldn't understand what Qiyue was saying at all. Qiyue was about to cry. She had long guessed that Heaven would not allow her to tell her master and the others the whole story.
But when it was actually confirmed, she felt powerless.
As the heavenly lightning was about to strike, Qi Yue's heart clenched in agony. Sensing Qi Yue's devastated state of mind, Lou Xuanzhi roughly guessed what Qi Yue was about to say to him.
It was nothing more than what she knew about their fate.
To avoid worrying his foolish disciples and for his own safety, Lou Xuanzhi withdrew his murderous intent and oppressive aura, while Tian Lei seemed to sense that the protagonist was no longer in danger.
It slowly disappeared.
The sky was clear and bright again, and Luo Wuji, Xia Wuxin, Xie Ji'an, and the others stopped fighting and returned to their respective camps.
Lou Xuanzhi then handed the pale-faced Qiyue to Le Luoxi, saying, "Take good care of Xiao Ba."
"Yes, Master."
Le Luoxi quickly helped Qiyue back, and Yun Huai also hurriedly took out a healing pill and fed it to Qiyue.
Seeing Qiyue slowly recover, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they also understood why Qiyue always bore everything alone. It turned out that she couldn't tell them everything.
The group felt a pang of sadness; their junior sister had truly endured so much that she shouldn't have had to.
Lou Xuanzhi looked down at the weak Xia Wanqing and said, "I want to see how you seek revenge against me and how far you can go."
As soon as he finished speaking, he led all his disciples, including Ji Su, into the Wanbaolou.
As Xia Wanqing watched the departing figure, she felt as if a mountain was pressing down on her head, and she felt even more humiliated, as the other party did not treat her like a human being at all.
But she vowed that as long as she lived, she would overturn this mountain, kill Qiyue, and kill all those who had brought her endless humiliation!
However, what she didn't know was that she had no chance. Whether it was Qiyue or anyone else, they would never give her any opportunity. They would cut off all her chances until they killed her!
Wanbaolou.
Upon entering Wanbaolou, Lou Xuanzhi was personally received by Jin Youqian, the young master of Wanbaolou, who had witnessed everything, and led to the most prestigious private room on the top floor of Wanbaolou.
"The auction will begin in one hour. You may rest here. If you need anything during the auction, simply show this token and someone will come to me. I will not disturb your rest any longer."
As expected of the young master of Wanbaolou, Jin Youqian lowered his posture to the lowest level, neatly and respectfully took off the token from his waist, placed it on the table, and left quietly.
"This person is really interesting." The shrewd Yun Huai looked at the token on the table with a meaningful look in his eyes.
Le Luoxi looked at the token with great admiration: "This person must have seen Master's heroic figure standing guard and wanted to befriend him. He is quite sensible."
"Rumor has it that with this token, you can enjoy a 30% discount at Wanbaolou. This young master is really generous." Gu Xingchuan picked up the token with obvious delight.
"Master, we won't lose out anyway, so let's accept it."
"Xiao Ba, what do you think?" Lou Xuanzhi did not respond to Gu Xingchuan's words. Since entering Wanbaolou, Qiyue's silence had been his biggest concern. He could no longer hear her inner thoughts, and he figured that what had just happened must have frightened her.
Everyone else looked at Qiyue, seemingly eager to hear her opinion.
Feeling the eager gazes around her, Qiyue, who had been silent and in a daze, snapped out of her reverie upon hearing this and took the token from Gu Xingchuan's hand.
After looking at the token, she said, "I agree with Sixth Senior Brother's idea. Although Tianqiong Mountain is not short of spirit stones and money, if we handle this person well, it may actually be beneficial to Tianqiong Mountain."
After saying that, Qiyue put the token back on the table.
[Actually, the original novel didn't describe this person much in the early stages. It only briefly mentioned that although he was a cultivator, he didn't belong to any faction at the beginning and only followed Xia Wanqing later.]
However, although their strength is unknown, perhaps we can make plans now. With Heaven intervening again, no one knows if they will take a preemptive stance to compensate for the opportunities the female lead lost.
