Chapter 411: Have These Demonic Beasts Gone Crazy?“… ” Hearing the name of the Alchemy King"s mansion, everyone became silent
After the silence lasted for a short while, someone softly said, “Actually, when the Alchemy King"s mansion had organized the first alchemy compet.i.tion in Lingxi Prefecture two years ago, Young Master Ye had wanted to take part in it. However, because of the grudge between Miss Qianxue and Gong Sunheng, he endured for two years. This time…”
“Don"t spout rubbish. Young Master Ye doesn"t want to go to the Alchemy King"s mansion! Let me tell you the truth. A few days ago, I accidentally overheard Sister Xiaoxiao talking to Young Master Ye…”
“Huh? What did they talk about?”
“They were talking about letting Young Master Ye go to the Alchemy King"s mansion today, where he would internally deal with Gong Sunheng.”
“Pff… is it real? Gong Sunheng is the demonically-talented alchemist from the Alchemy King"s mansion! This idea is too unreliable! If Young Master Ye"s not careful, he"ll…”
“Ahh! It"d have been great if Miss Qianxue were still around.”
The crowd sighed, and after returning to their residences, everyone cultivated even harder.
Soon, night fell.
Lou Xiaoxiao especially changed into a red long dress, which was as fiery as a flame. She took her Frost Sword and went to the Third prince"s mansion.
“Oh, isn"t this the arrogant "pheasant" phoenix? Why is she bowing to the powerful today?”
This period of two years had made the Fengyang prefecture"s Third Young Master, Lou Shulin, hate Lou Xiaoxiao even more. It was especially so after Lou Xiaoxiao had surpa.s.sed his ranking in the Imperial Academy. Every time he saw her now, he wanted to provoke her.
However, Lou Xiaoxiao did not dare to touch him.
This time, as always, Lou Xiaoxiao coldly glanced at him before entering the banquet.
When the other people with lower statuses who had been invited here due to their cultivation and talent saw this, they distanced themselves from Lou Xiaoxiao. They were afraid she would implicate them as well.
On the other hand, people with higher statuses were like Third Young Master. They could not be bothered about Lou Xiaoxiao.
Some even looked at Lou Xiaoxiao"s figure with evil intentions and laughed. “You don"t have to say it. The arrogance of this girl really tempts people. It will be very exciting to play with her!”
A strange light flashed in Third Young Master"s eyes. “You want to? Then I"ll help you think of a way.”
“Huh? Really? Great, if it really comes true, I"ll give you a big red packet!”
“What are you all talking about? What red packet?”
Suddenly, a sweet voice interrupted their conversation.
“Huh? Princess Xueqing.”
“Princess Xueqing.”
When the few young masters saw the most beautiful girl of the Imperial City, they looked at her and instantly withdrew their lewd expressions. One after another, they displayed their aristocratic demeanor. They respectfully and politely bowed toward the girl dressed in white, whose face was covered with a white veil.
“Yeah. What were all of you talking about just now? You seem so happy.” Princess Xueqing asked in a gentle voice as she approached them.
“Haha, we were talking about a pheasant trying in vain to become a phoenix. But, haha, can anyone in this world be compared to you, Princess Xueqing? Let"s not talk about her so that your ears don"t get corrupted.”
“Oh!” When Princess Xueqing heard that it was only a "pheasant," she suddenly lost all interest in the matter. “Cousin Shulin, Third Brother"s birthday banquet is starting soon. Let"s go in together.”
“Oh, alright, alright.” Lou Shulin said. Princess Xueqing"s beauty had also captivated him, and like everyone, he could not help himself from obsessively looking at her.
Princess Xueqing"s eyes were clear and bright. However, beneath her veil, the corners of her lips were curled up into a proud and faint smile.
Gradually, more and more people reached the Third Prince"s mansion, and they took their seats.
By seven in the evening, all the guests had gathered. Movements finally happened at the Third Prince"s side.
At the same time, a huge tremor suddenly spread from the deepest area of the Qingyun Mountain.
Tens of thousands of demonic beasts instantly jumped in all parts of Qingyun Mountain.
One by one, they wildly ran everywhere and endlessly roared. This frightened the people training in the mountain so much that they became dumbfounded.
“What"s happening?”
“Have these demonic beasts gone crazy?”
