Later that night, Lou Qianxue brought Lou Xiaoxiao out from Mountain River Space. She laid her down. Lou Qianxue had yet to sleep when she again heard movements outside.
“Fire! There’s a fire! Everyone, wake up! There’s a fire…”
Lou Xiaoxiao also woke up in a daze. “What’s happening?”
“Something caught fire,” Lou Qianxue calmly replied, “But it did not spread to our area here. Continue to sleep.”
“Oh.” Lou Xiaoxiao fell asleep the moment she lay down again.
The next day arrived.
When Lou Xiaoxiao woke up, she heard that the lodging had caught fire and a corpse was thrown at the entrance. She asked her roommate. “The girl from our carriage tried to assassinate you yesterday, and that corpse at the entrance… was also one of the girls from our carriage. Could it be…”
Lou Qianxue nodded. “I killed her.”
Lou Xiaoxiao opened her sleepy eyes. “She also took action against you?”
“Yes.”
Lou Xiaoxiao frowned, She looked at Lou Qianxue with worry. “Who wants to kill you? So many people have tried to take your life. This is too dangerous… ”
“It’s not a problem.” Lou Qianxue remained tranquil. Only a cold light flashed past her beautiful eyes from time to time. “If one comes, I’ll kill one. If two come, I’ll kill a pair!”
“But… what if the opposite party’s cultivation is higher than yours?” Lou Xiaoxiao couldn’t shake off her feelings.
As it was inconvenient to tell Xiaoxiao about Mountain River Space, Lou Qianxue could only remain silent and let her worry.
After everyone finished their meal in the morning, they set off again.
They traveled the whole day, and in the evening, they finally reached Liuyun prefecture.
When they reached their destination, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Smiles also appeared on their faces.
“Everyone,” Lou Jingfeng turned his horse around at the entrance of Liuyun prefecture and faced everybody. “We have safely reached Liuyun prefecture. Everyone is free to engage in your own activities after this. However, the Prefectural Governor will hold a banquet tomorrow night. Every participant is invited. The invitation will be sent to you all soon after. Please be punctual and don’t be late.”
“Yes.”
“We understand.”
“We will be punctual.”
The youths of Qingyun City were extremely excited.
Liuyun Prefecture was vast and boundless. Thirty cities, including Qingyun city, fell under its jurisdiction. To the residents of these cities, the Prefectural Governor of Liuyun was someone out of their reach. So when they learned they would be meeting him soon, they became excited.
“All right. After receiving your invitation, you can go your way.”
Lou Jingfeng continued, “The accompanying guards can go to the inn and stay. Qianyue, we will follow your mother to visit the Prefectural Governor. For our trip, we will stay at the Prefectural Governor’s mansion and accompany your sister.”
When the people who had yet to disperse heard this, they enviously looked at Lou Jingfeng, Lou Qianyue, and Jiang Suying.
“They can actually stay at the Prefectural Governor’s mansion? This is really too impressive, and makes others feel so envious!”
“Yes. I heard that City Lord’s new madam came from the prefectural city. It looks like the rumor is true.”
“So, is it because of this relationship that Lou Xingchen got direct participation in the Prefecture competition?”
“It is really important to have good relatives…”
“With the Prefectural Governor’s support, the City Lord of our Qingyun City should still be the Lou Family… ”
Upon hearing everyone’s discussion, Lou Jingfeng revealed a proud and pleasurable smile on his face.
However, his gaze soon landed on Lou Qianxue, and his expression became cold again. He sneered and said in ridicule, “Lou Qianxue, Xingchen doesn’t like you. You don’t have to stay at the Prefectural Governor’s mansion with us. You can settle where to stay yourself. As for Lou Xiaoxiao, aren’t you on very good terms with Lou Qianxue? You can accompany her to stay outside!”
