A crisp, cracking sound rang out in the surroundings, and even the bustling crowd had heard it.
âWhat broke?â
The people looked around in confusion and shock. When their eyes fell upon the battle stage, the expression on their face became odd.
âEh?â
âIs that...â
âHow is it possible?â
Everyone looked at Lou Xingchen in shock.
Lou Xingchen did not like those gazes and frowned. However, as she glanced at her own body, her face instantly paled.
The armor on her body was shattering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Spider silk-like patterns were spreading on the surface of the armor.
âMy armor! My holy light armor! How could it be possible!â Lou Xingchenâs voice trembled in shock.
âDonât you know?â Lou Qianxue sneered. âLightning sword intent already has the power of a heavenly martial art. Although your armor is invincible against attacks under the Mystic Martial Realm, itâs vulnerable to attacks from the heavenly realm. Thereâs nothing strange about it even if it breaks.â
âWhy is the sword intent so powerful? No way! Youâre lying! You must be lying to me!â Lou Xingchen felt defeated. She shook her head in disbelief and looked up. âLou Qianxue, you ruined my armor. Iâm going to kill you!!!â
With her Spirit Item in hand, Lou Xingchen moved at lightning speed with an expression full of murderous intent.
âKill me? With what?â
Lou Qianxue said in a cold voice as she pointed her sword at the ground. âFrosted Distance!â
At the next moment,
Thick frost covered the ground beside her feet and spread toward Lou Xingchen at an extremely fast speed. The frost climbed up her legs and her body. It froze her and her weapons along with the ground.
âYou!â Lou Xingchenâs body was wrapped by the strong and cold power. She could not move even one bit.
Fright engulfed Lou Xingchenâs senses. âLou Qianxue, let me go. If you have what it takes, fight me head-on. Whatâs so great about making sneak attacks like this?â
âSneak attacks?â Lou Qianxue stepped on the transparent ice crystal and walked toward Lou Xingchen step by step. âLou Xingchen, not only are you pretentious, but you also like to lie through your teeth. When did I sneak an attack? Frosted DistanceâDidnât I just tell you that I was going to use it?â
When she looked at Lou Xingchenâs Spirit Item, Lou Qianxueâs eyes became full of mockery. âEven if you have a Spirit Item, it has to work first!â
Lou Xingchen mobilized her inner strength in fear and saw the ice crystals begin to melt. As she became ecstatic, a cold long sword pressed her neck.
âLou Xingchen.â
Lou Qianxue looked at her former sister with frosty eyes. âSix years ago, my mother saw you as a lonely and pitiful orphan. So, she brought you back to the City Lordâs Mansion to be my maid. For the last six yearsâsince you were someone that my mother had left behindâI had never regarded you as a servant, and instead treated you like a sister. But what did you do?â
A bloody-red ray spread across Lou Qianxueâs eyes, and she tightened her fingers around the Frost Sword. âUngrateful! Heartless! You schemed against me and even ganged up with Jiang Suying. You drove out my mother, who brought you into the City Lordâs Mansion. The most unforgivable part is that you all had wasted her cultivation!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
When she reached the end of her speech, a strong murderous intent flashed in Lou Qianxueâs eyes.
âWhat?â On the raised stage, not only was Lou Potian stunned, but even Lou Jingfengâs brain became blank. The Qingyun cityâs lord glared at Jiang Suying and said, âYou drove Lou Xuanji away? And you even abolished her cultivation?â
All the people in the city liked to say that Lou Xuanji had left because the City Lord had broken her heart, but only Lou Jingfeng knew that Lou Xuanji never liked him.
He had always thought that Lou Xuanji had left on his own accord. He couldâve never thought...
