Chapter 538: Chapter 538: Who Is Lou Qianxue, Come Out!

Numerous fluorescent lights flickered in the tower.

Teacher Mo and numerous students stared at the spots of light above them as they stood in front of the tower.

“The martial arts scene has flourished in recent years. This batch of students shouldn’t be worse than the batches from previous years.”

“From what I know, Hong Qinghe of Fengyang prefecture and a few people enrolled from Liuyun Prefecture are very impressive...”

“Not to mention that even Second Young Master appeared out of nowhere in this batch of new students!”

“Yes! I also heard about it! Second Young Master from Zhen Guogong’s mansion actually came to our Imperial academy! I heard that he’s extraordinarily powerful. He has followed his father to battles since he was nine years old. How impressive! At such a young age, he made his enemies tremble at the mention of his name. Such character, as well as his talent in cultivation, is definitely astonishing!”

“Right! If there are no accidents, Second Young Master should have the best results in this batch of new students.”

As everyone discussed...

Suddenly!

“Who is Lou Qianxue?”

A cold and strong voice rang out.

The crowd froze for a while, then looked at the speaker.

They only saw a young man with a gloomy expression arrogantly and aggressively walking over.

“Huh? Isn’t this Senior Brother Shen Shuangmu?”

“Senior Brother Shen.”

“Senior Brother Shen.”

Numerous students respectfully greeted him.

Shen Shuangmu ignored them. His cold gaze that was filled with murderous intent swept past everyone. “Who’s Lou Qianxue? Come out!”

“Lou Qianxue? Who’s she? Did she offend Senior Brother Shen? Senior Brother Shen is ranked 50th in the Hall of Fame. Only a handful of people in the academy dare to offend him.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Huh? Lou Qianxue... This name is very familiar... Ah— I remember her. Isn’t she that alchemist who cured Zhen Guogong?”

“Right! I also remember her. I heard that this Lou Qianxue even crippled the cultivation of the sister of Senior Brother Mu Xueying!!!”

“So this is why he’s here! Senior Brother Shen Shuangmu and Senior Brother Mu Xueying are classmates. Since Senior Brother Shen has come here, it’s definitely related to Lou Qianxue crippling the cultivation of Senior Brother Mu’s sister!!!”

“Senior Brother Shen is at the Mystic Martial Realm. I heard that Lou Qianxue raised her cultivation with pills and is only at the Essence Martial Realm... Looks like she’s going to be unlucky!”

“Lou... Qian... Xue! Come out!” Shen Shuangmu yelled.

“...” Teacher Mo frowned and looked at Shen Shuangmu. Then, he coldly said, “Shen Shuangmu, there’s no need for you to shout. She’s not here.”

Shen Shuangmu withdrew his arrogance and stepped forward. “Teacher Mo.” He paused for a while before asking, “Does Teacher Mo know where Lou Qianxue is?”

“Why are you looking for her?”

“She crippled Senior Brother Mu’s sister, Senior Sister Bailing. Senior Brother Mu wants to see her.”

Teacher Mo’s pupils shrank. “Senior Brother Mu? You’re referring to Mu Xueying?”

“That’s right.” Shen Shuangmu nodded.

A tinge of fear swept past Teacher Mo’s face, but he still reminded him. “You should know that the Imperial academy forbids killing within the academy.”

“I know.” Shen Shuangmu coldly asked again, “Where’s Lou Qianxue?”

Teacher Mo looked at the black tower in front of him. “She’s inside the trial tower.”

“Trial tower...” Shen Shuangmu narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the black tower. Then he sneered. “A piece of useless trash like her will definitely come out in less than half an hour. Forget it! I’ll wait half an hour for her!”

When the other students heard this, they softly discussed the matter among themselves.

“Shen Shuangmu was indeed sent by Senior Brother Mu... He’s scary enough. Senior Brother Mu wants to personally see Lou Qianxue. Looks like that Lou Qianxue is really doomed!”

As the crowd talked, they looked in the direction of the black tower. “Fortunately, she’s not here now and can live a little longer...”

“However, with her Essence Martial Realm cultivation, how long can she stay in the black tower? I reckon that she’ll come out soon. At that time... she’ll have to die sooner or later! No, the academy doesn’t allow any killing within its premises. Perhaps, she will face a fate so miserable that she would want to die!”
