Chapter 354: Chapter 354: Will They Dare To Take Action?

“Alchemy King’s mansion!!!”

Every person sucked in a cold breath one after another.

Absolute silence descended in the garden.

The crowd looked at Gong Sunheng...

“Al-Alchemist from the Alchemy King’s mansion...”

“And he’s even a demonically-talented alchemist!”

“Although I have never heard of him, even Master Huo is so respectful to him...”

Everyone’s expression instantly became respectful.

They lowered their heads one after another and fleetingly looked at the ground, regretting or the rude remarks they had made earlier.

“It’s alright.” An approachable smile appeared on Gong Sunheng’s face. “Ignorance can be forgiven. Miss Qianxue, about these men, you can decide.”

“Anyway, they are crippled now, and have gotten what they deserve. As for the rest, it doesn’t matter.”

Gong Sunheng nodded. “Miss Qianxue, your magnanimity is really like your talent in cultivation. There are no words to describe it.”

“Don’t say such nice words too early.” The corners of Lou Qianxue’s mouth curled up. “I still have some matters to discuss with you.”

“Oh? That. It must not be delayed. Let’s go now!” Since his identity had been revealed, Gong Sunheng did not want to remain here for too long.

“Well, the Fenghua Banquet has already ended. There’s also no harm doing it now.”

Like Gong Sunheng, Lou Qianxue immediately left with Ye Zhuixun and Lou Xiaoxiao.

Everyone looked at their backs in astonishment.

“They left too quickly. I was still thinking of making friends with Miss Qianxue!”

“Exactly. And Master Gong Sunheng! He’s an alchemist from the Alchemy King’s mansion! If I can enter his good graces and get his recommendation to join the Alchemy King’s mansion, then.”

There had been a dreamlike expression on everyone’s face when they awoke and realized that Lou Qianxue and Gong Sunheng had already left. Disappointment surged in their hearts.

***

After leaving Fenghua garden, Lou Qianxue and Gong Sunheng arranged to meet at the Alchemy Union a while later. They then went separate ways.

The Lou family’s carriage was ready outside the entrance of Fenghua garden.

Third Young Master had yet to wake up again, but after her stellar performance today, Lou Qianxue had established supreme prestige in the hearts of the other Lou family members. Hence, even though she did not say anything, the other Lou family members prioritized her and attended to her.

When she expressed the desire to leave, they hurriedly carried Third Young Master up the carriage and immediately set off...

“Phew... I finally feel relieved. This Fenghua Banquet was really far beyond my expectations.” Lou Xiaoxiao took in a deep breath and exclaimed.

“There may be many such banquets like this in the future,” Lou Qianxue slowly said.

Lou Xiaoxiao looked at Lou Qianxue. She wanted to say something but held back in the end.

“Sister Xiaoxiao, are you worried about those people from the imperial city seeking revenge?”

“Huh?” Lou Xiaoxiao looked at Lou Qianxue with a doubtful expression. “How do you know what I’m thinking?”

“It’s usually easy to guess your thoughts.” Lou Qianxue smiled. She then narrowed her eyes and continued, “But you don’t have to worry about that matter at all.”

“How can I not? Each and every one of them was so arrogant. They definitely come from great backgrounds! Moreover, they suffered such a big humiliation today. Based on their characters, I can tell that they’ll definitely pursue the matter.”

“That will depend on whether they can make it back or not.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“The cultivators who had attended the Fenghua Banquet today were geniuses from the younger generation of Fengyang prefecture. They were the gems of their families. However, those men from the imperial city killed many of these geniuses. If you were their family member, what would you do?”

“Of course, I’ll take revenge for the grievances and seek justice... Ah, I know what you mean.” Lou Xiaoxiao suddenly came to a realization, but she still felt something was not right. “However, those people are from the imperial city. Will these geniuses’ families dare to take action?”

“They definitely wouldn’t have dared to do it. However, those five are cripples now. According to what has always happened in the Xuan Tian continent, in their current state, they are destined to be abandoned by their own families. Who will fight for a few abandoned children? Furthermore, if I were the one taking action, I wouldn’t let anyone know my identity.”
