Lou Qiongshang's fingers continued to tap the armrest, gradually affecting even the two people who were fighting.
Shu Jianyue didn't know his intention, so she looked at Chong Jiu and asked, "What does he mean?"
Chongjiu shook his head, indicating that she didn't need to worry about it.
By doing this, Lou Qiongshang is essentially helping the Supreme Temple.
The Supreme Temple's extravagant gesture today has stirred the ambitions of many sects present, but his sonic attack is actually easing their greed.
Although they don't care whether they are greedy or not towards the Supreme Temple, if they attack it together, it will truly be like catching a turtle in a jar.
As Shu Jianyue thought, they wouldn't risk their reputation by attacking a newly established sect for these things, would they?
However, it should be noted that some so-called reputable sects, if they harbor any ill intentions, are often more vicious and difficult to guard against than those evil sects.
The people in the square calmed down. Even Ai Huixian, who had initially harbored malice towards Yan Xi, calmed down and felt her face turn pale at what she had just done.
The only family unaffected is the family of Chongjiu Shu Jianyue.
Yan Xi stared intently at Lou Qiongshang's hands. They were moving at the same speed, so why did they produce different sounds?
Lou Qiongshang felt her gaze, slightly curved her lips, and asked, "Do you want to learn?"
The two were not too far apart, with Shu Jianyue, Chong Jiu, and Yu Chuan in between, so Yan Xi didn't immediately think he was asking her what he said.
Lou Qiongshang looked at her and gave a soft "hmm".
Yan Xi then realized he was asking about her, and pointed at herself, asking, "Me?"
"Otherwise what?" Lou Qiongshang glanced at the three people in the middle. It couldn't possibly be them.
Yu Chuan, Chong Jiu, and Shu Jian Yue: "..."
Yan Xi glanced at Shu Jianyue and Chong Jiu, then nodded, "I want to."
"Become my disciple, and I will teach you all the sound attacks I have learned." Lou Qiongshang looked at her with a firm gaze.
Chongjiu looked at him and asked, "Why does the Mountain Lord suddenly want to take Xixi as his disciple?"
He might know something about people from China, but he knows very little about the Holy Spirit.
Moreover, Lou Qiongshang is a rising star, so he naturally knows even less about her.
"I want to." That's quite an arrogant answer. The father asked you why you wanted to take his daughter as your apprentice, and you just said "I want to!"
Lou Qiongshang said the word while still looking at Yan Xi, almost making Yan Xi blush.
He didn't know why he was like that. He clearly wanted to take someone else's daughter as his apprentice, but he blurted out such a word out of the blue.
Is it just because she said "I want to"?
Lou Qiongshang's lips twitched slightly. When did he develop this problem?
Looking at the dark face etched by the heavy moxibustion, I felt strangely relieved.
Chong Jiu said with a dark face, "Heh, I disagree." In his view, this person had impure motives.
"If Young Master Yan agrees, then so be it." Lou Qiongshang gestured for Yan Xi to reply.
Yan Xi looked at Chong Jiu, and with a thought, smiled and said, "I'll listen to my father."
Chong Jiu smiled.
Lou Qiongshang also laughed, but there was a hint of coldness in her smile. "Then forget it."
Yu Chuan, sitting next to him, rubbed his arms and instantly felt as if winter had arrived, with the surrounding air several degrees colder.
Even Shu Jianyue, who was separated from Chong Jiu by a layer of moxibustion, felt a cold air rush over and couldn't help but hiss as she looked at Chong Jiu.
But he seemed completely unaffected, with a smile in his eyes.
Seeing him like this, I couldn't help but find it funny. How old am I, still arguing with someone who is just a child to me?
Shu Jianyue shook her head and looked at Lou Qiongshang, saying, "Lord Lou, you must have a reason for wanting to take Xixi as your disciple."
"Otherwise, how could we, as parents, feel at ease entrusting our daughter to you, right?"
Lou Qiongshang's attention was entirely focused on that question: "How can I entrust my daughter to you?" After thinking for a moment, she nodded and said, "Palace Master Shu is right."
Chong Jiu's face darkened again. So, his question was unreasonable?
Lou Qiongshang thought for a moment and said, "Then I won't take you as my apprentice. If Young Master Yan is willing, you can learn directly from me."
This is even more worrying; it feels like she's trying to abduct her daughter.
Shu Jianyue coughed lightly and said, "That would be even more inconvenient, after all, there are differences between men and women."
"Is there a difference between men and women?" Lou Qiongshang looked at Lu Churan, who was in the middle of the competition.
So, the reason he saw Yan Xi and Lu Churan walking together before was because those four words hadn't been born yet?
Or perhaps, she has some other relationship with Lu Churan?
Thinking of this, frost rapidly spread outwards from the chair he was sitting on.
Chong Jiu lowered his eyes and slightly raised his hand to suppress the frost back.
Lou Qiongshang looked at him, narrowing her eyes, "What is Palace Master Chong's strength?"
"Taller than you." Chong Jiu's reply was infuriating.
Lou Qiongshang wasn't angry. Instead, she looked at Yan Xi and asked, "What's your relationship with that kid from the Tianji Sect?"
A brat from the Heavenly Pole Sect?
Yan Xi followed his finger and looked down. "It's okay, we're just friends."
"So, there's no difference between men and women when it comes to friends?" Lou Qiongshang asked Shu Jianyue.
Shu Jianyue's lips twitched, thinking to herself: Where did this trouble come from?
"They're not people we see often, we only chat briefly when we bump into each other. Have they done anything unusual?"
"Or did the mountain lord see something?"
Shu Jianyue looked at Lu Churan, wondering how he knew that Xixi and Lu Churan knew each other.
The fact that he asked this question clearly indicates that he had seen the two of them walking together before.
Yan Xi immediately shook her head, "How could there be anything? The things we've said don't exceed..." She paused to do some calculations.
"Ten sentences."
Before the ceremony, I took him to see the scenery, but that was all; we didn't chat at all.
She's not good at finding topics to talk about, and Lu Churan is even more of a blockhead; what could they possibly talk about?
Lou Qiongshang's mood instantly improved.
Yu Chuan looked him up and down.
He was sitting next to him, so he felt it most clearly. Whenever Xi Xi was mentioned, his coldness would subside a bit, otherwise it would be like an ice cave.
So, he's taken a liking to Xixi?
Lou Qiongshang felt his gaze and glanced at him.
Yu Chuan asked him with his eyes if he had taken a liking to Yan Xi, but the other party did not understand.
But Zhou Rong, standing behind Lou Qiongshang, understood. He also wanted to know if the mountain lord had taken a liking to her.
If you've taken a liking to someone, why take them as your apprentice? Isn't that cutting off your own path?
However, he never understood the mountain lord's decision.
Lou Xun, sitting on the other side, listened to their conversation with his mouth slightly agape in surprise.
Since he became the master of Fuxian Mountain at the age of fifteen, he has only taken on one disciple and has not taken on any more disciples.
The only disciple, Xuan Ye, was even more outstanding, having already reached the Tribulation Transcending stage at the young age of twenty-five.
Who wouldn't envy that?
The young master of the Supreme Temple whom they now wish to take as their disciple is another exceptionally talented individual.
