Lou Qianxue took the badge for second-grade alchemists and hung it on her waist. She looked at it and felt quite satisfied. Then, she nodded and said, âNot bad. Alright, letâs go.â
Master Huo sent her off just as she said.
When everyone outside saw them, their eyes lit up.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âTheyâre out. Theyâre out. Master Huo and that little girl are out!â
âI wonder how their alchemy knowledge battle went... I bet the little girl lost?â
âProbably... But from what I see, Master Huoâs attitude toward that little girl got a lot better. Could something unknown have happened?â
While the crowd spoke, Lou Qianxue and Master Huo had already walked over to them.
The crowd curiously looked at the duo.
Suddenly, someoneâs eyes fell on Lou Qianxueâs waist, and the person became surprised. âThe badge... the alchemist badge...â
âHuh? The flame circle above... There are two rings? Two rings!!! Is that little girl already a second-grade alchemist?â
âNo way? If I recall correctly, she had yet to register as an alchemist? How did she become a second-grade alchemist at once?â
Everyone stared at Lou Qianxue in shock, and for a while, they forgot about the results of the alchemy knowledge battle.
It wasnât until Lou Qianxue and Master Huo disappeared that they suddenly remembered the matter.
âThat little girl didnât have the Holy Purple Frost Bamboo with her. She lost!!!â
âPhew!â For some reason, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. âJust as I had said. How can such a little girl win against Master Huo!â
âHowever, sheâs already a second-grade alchemist at such a young age. This means sheâs also very skillful. This talent can be said to be terrifying. Itâs not inferior to Young Master Yang and Mu Wushuang. No wonder Master Huo suddenly treated her a lot better.â
âThen tell me, is she Master Huoâs apprentice now?â
Everyone looked at each other with a confused expression.
After a long time, one of them suddenly reacted. âBy the way... Does anyone know who that little girl is? When did our Fengyang prefecture have such a terrifying alchemy genius? Why donât I know about her?â
Every person in the crowd shook their head.
Master Huo sent Lou Qianxue all the way out of the gate of the Alchemy Union. âQianxue, in about two months, the Alchemy Kingâs Mansion will hold an alchemy meeting in Lingxi Prefecture. Would you like to go and try it out? With your qualifications, you can definitely enter the Alchemy Kingâs Mansion. If you can enter it, then your journey on alchemy will be too smooth...â
âI also know about this.â Yan Gongqing had spoken of this in Liuyun Prefecture. âHowever, Iâm not sure whether I will go, so letâs talk about it when the time comes.â
The two of them were still talking when...
âG-Girl...â A weak voice made them stop. It was the voice of the medicine boy from before. âYou... Iâm ready to accept my consequences of losing. Iâm willing to do anything you ask me to do.â
Lou Qianxue glanced at him. âGo to the street and be a beggar for three days before coming back to work.â
After she spoke, she left.
Master Huo looked at the medicine boy. âAfter three days, when you have returned, come over to my place.â
Have I been spotted? The medicine boy was stunned. Under everyoneâs envious gaze, he became so excited that he couldnât control himself. âYes. Yes! Thank you, Master Huo! Thank you, Master Huo!â
After exiting the Alchemy Union, she did not go anywhere else and just returned to the Prefectural Governorâs mansion.
After Dan Taiyuan had left, no one in the Prefectural Governorâs mansion paid any attention to the group of âcountry bumpkinsâ who came from a poor place.
On the way back to her residence, none of the people in the Prefectural Governorâs mansion gave Lou Qianxue a second look.
Howeverâ
When she pushed the door open, she noticed two unfamiliar people standing in the middle of the courtyard.
âHuh?â Lou Qianxue frowned. She felt like her privacy had been invaded, and this made her unhappy. âWho are you? Why are you in my courtyard?â
The two uninvited guests were both women. One of them was dressed in a white dress, had ordinary features but fair skin. It could be said that she was a beautiful lady.
A strong feeling of arrogance came out of the spot between her eyes. After hearing Lou Qianxueâs words, she turned her eyes and looked at Lou Qianxue with a contemptuous and condescending gaze.
The other girl was dressed as a maid, and she stood a step behind the white-clothed woman. When she saw Lou Qianxue, the maid snorted and asked. âLou Qianxue? Are you the little b*tch who offended Third Young Master?â
