Chapter 39: 39

“Have you heard? The eldest daughter of the city lord’s mansion, Lou Qianxue, seems to be very impressive at alchemy . Even President Zhang Heng sees her in a favorable light . ”

“What? How is it possible? Can’t only people at the ninth level of the spiritual realm gather danhuo and practice alchemy? Then what level is Lou Qianxue at?”

“Um… I heard that she’s a piece of trash, who can’t even gather her elementary force . ”

“Are you kidding me? Even a piece of trash can practice alchemy?”

Just fifteen minutes after it took place, the news of the incident regarding Lou Qianxue at the Alchemy Union had spread . Some believed it, while others did not .

Some people knew even more . “You don’t know about this, right? The eldest daughter in the City Lord Mansion is the child who Madam Xuanji left behind . She was previously engaged with the eldest young master of the Su Family . However, as she kept being unable to perfect her elementary force, the Su Family decided to change the bride to the prodigy, Lou Xingchen .

“Lou Qianxue refused to accept it in her heart, and somehow, she suddenly managed to gather her elementary force . Furthermore, she even displayed her might at the city lord’s mansion . She beat up the First Elder’s grandson…”

It was evident that this person knew a lot more information . He was very descriptive, and it attracted a lot of people to listen .

Lou Qianxue passed by and heard those words . Her eyebrows uncontrollably furrowed but relaxed within a moment . She did not even halt her footsteps . She continued walking forward . Soon, she had reached the city entrance and was about to leave the city .

“Giddy-up! Giddy-up! Run quickly! Haha, what a good horse! Run quickly! Trample these cheap citizens to death—”

A teenage boy, who had a brutal expression on his face, was riding atop a first-grade steed . He was laughing crazily . He whipped the horse, accelerated, and violently charged right in .

When everyone saw this, they all avoided him . Only a five or six-year-old toddler stood in the middle of the road in a daze, chewing on a candy .

The tall and huge horse mercilessly galloped towards the toddler…

“Baby—” A pathetic wail sounded in the crowd .

When the rest of the people saw this, they could not bear to look .

However!

In the next moment!

Flash!

A white, cold, and shining light slashed across the road under the sunlight .

A scarlet-colored wisp floated .

Boom!

The fat and strong horse fell forcefully onto the ground, sending the dirt and dust on the ground flying up .

At the same time, the youth riding on the horse had been flung out in a harsh manner . However, the youth reacted quickly . He moved his body and stood fixedly on the ground . Soon, his expression became menacing, and he furiously brandished his long whip . He flung it onto the youth who was clad in white and was hugging the child in the middle of the road . “Bastard, you dare to block my path, and kill my precious horse? I’ll kill you today!”

When the crowd saw this, their expression instantaneously changed .

“It’s the Mo Family’s eldest young master, Mo Youwei! This is the end . That youth is definitely dead!”

“That’s right! Mo Youwei relies on his position as the eldest young master of one of the three greatest families of Qingyue city . He uses his identity to bully people every day . He has done a lot of bad things . About eighty to a hundred people in this city have been killed by his whip . This teenage boy is definitely going to die . ”

As the crowd spoke, their faces became full of pity, and they could not stop sighing .

Initially, they thought that it was a good thing that the toddler had been rescued from the hooves of the horse . But they had not expected that the horse’s owner would be Mo Youwei . This was bad . Not only was the toddler dead-meat, but the person who had rescued the toddler was also going to suffer from the same fate .

“Kill me?”

The person who saved the toddler was not someone else but Lou Qianxue .

One of her arms hugged the child, while the other grabbed the whip . “Just by yourself?”

Her arm slightly shook, and the strength from her body trembled towards the whip . The whip became like a snake . It made an explosive noise in the air and hit the youth’s face with a loud ‘pop!’ .

The youth pathetically wailed and quickly released the whip .
