“Lou Qianyue, you’re too arrogant,” The Prefectural Governor continued, “Since you came to Liuyun Prefecture, you have always been arrogant. You threatened An Linglong, Xia Zheng, and Xu Miaoyan. You made them kneel. You even threw Su Mingyang and Lou Qianyue in my mansion, and killed someone in Baicao Garden. Even at the Prefecture competition, you remained stubborn and intractable. Lou Qianxue, my patience has a limit! You’ve been an eyesore to me for far too long.
“Are you that naive to think that I’m the only one expert of the Mystic Martial realm in Liuyun Prefecture?”
As he clapped his palms, two old men dressed in the robes of the Prefectural Governor’s mansion silently appeared beside him. Their bodies emitted a powerful aura.
They were from the Mystic Martial realm!
Two experts of the Mystic Martial realm!
On the surface, it seemed Liuyun Prefecture was devoid of Mystic Martial realm experts. However, in reality, there were three, including the Prefectural Governor, all within the Prefectural Governor’s mansion!
“Oh my god! Is the Mystic Martial realm so common now? It was exciting enough with four of them from the Zhu family. And now, there are another three!”
“Does Lou Qianxue still have any trump cards? Sigh! I thought that she was blessed to live even after meeting Sky, Earth, Flood, and Barren. But it was just a matter of time that she would die!”
“Lou Qianxue, I want your life today so that I can account to Young Master Zhu in the future!” The murderous intent in the Prefectural Governor’s voice was apparent.
Lou Qianxue held the Frost Sword tightly. She had yet to respond when a sneer broke the silence in the entire place. “City Lord Jiang, you sound so conceited. It’s awe-inspiring!”
“This is…”
The crowd looked at a corner in their shock. The people in that area swiftly dispersed to reveal…
“Master Yan!”
“It’s Master Yan. Master Yan has personally come!”
“Master Yan came out to protect Lou Qianxue?”
Lou Qianxue looked at Master Yan. She also noticed the scarlet-masked young man beside him, who kept looking at her.
When The Prefectural Governor saw Master Yan, his complexion turned ugly. “Master Yan, Lou Qianxue has offended the Zhu family from the Imperial City. Are you certain you want to protect her?”
“I don’t care who she has offended. I only know that she has treated my old illness. I am indebted to her. As long as I’m here today, no one can touch her. If you want to, you’ll have to step over my body first!”
“You!” The Prefectural Governor became enraged. He then ordered the two Mystic Martial realm experts at his side with a ruthless gaze. “You, go and ‘invite’ Master Yan to leave. You, follow me to kill the b*itch Lou Qianxue!”
“Jiang Huaicheng! How dare you!” Master Yan was exasperated. As an alchemist, his focus was on alchemy all his life. His cultivation was a result of his alchemy knowledge, and it only made him look strong.
Although his reputation was so prestigious, his strength wasn’t.
“Ha.” At this moment, the scarlet-masked young man beside Master Yan laughed. He then appeared beside Lou Qianxue with a ghost-like movement. He then mockingly looked at the Prefectural Governor. “You think only the people from your Prefectural Governor’s mansion are at the Mystic Martial realm!”
He had just spoken when—
Whoosh! whoosh!
Two figures descended from the sky. They were two gold-masked old men.
“Gold-masked! Scarlet-masked!” The Prefectural Governor exclaimed as he lost self-control.
The Prefectural Governor was a man with great authority, and he knew men with similar powers as him. He knew the rank distribution in the Gate of Seven Kills that went scarlet, red, gold, silver, copper, and iron, in decreasing order!
“F*ck! Even the Gate of Seven Kills has appeared!”
“The grievances of these two girls actually implicated so many forces!”
“Who exactly is Lou Qianxue?”
“This is bad! The Mystic Martial realm is really becoming common!”
Lou Qianxue peeked at the man beside her and did not recall knowing him.
The scarlet-masked man’s amorous eyes held an evil smile as he stared at the Prefectural Governor. “How is it, Prefectural Governor? Do you want to test and see whether your mansion’s Mystic Martial realm exerts or our Gate of Seven Kills’ Mystic Martial realm experts are more impressive?”
Isn’t this obvious?
The assassins from the Gate of Seven Kills dealt with killing people. They were the best at their jobs. Hence, within the same realm, the combat capabilities of the Gate of Seven Kills far exceeded others!
The tables had been turned in the blink of an eye, and Lou Qianxue’s side had the upper hand again.
