âWhat condition? Tell me!â
âYouâre a weapon refinery expert, and I have never even learned weapon refinery. Hence, this bet on weapons with you is somewhat unfair for me.â
âYou! Lou Qianxue, are you backing out? You tricked me!â Lu Liang furiously stared at Lou Qianxue with bloodshot eyes.
Lou Qianyue chuckled. âTrick you? Iâm not that bored. Iâm just trying to say that I want to fix the bet three months later. You have to give me some time to learn weapon refinery, right?â
âThree months?â
Everyone dumbfoundedly looked at Lou Qianyue. âSheâs crazy! Does she think that she can defeat Lu Liang after three months?â
âI really donât know whether sheâs being too arrogant or sheâs belittling Young Master Lu Liang.â
Chu Pengfei also frowned and swiftly grabbed her arm. âAre you crazy? Do you know how long he has refined weapons? You want to bet your life on weapons with him after learning for three months? Are you sick of living?â
Lou Qianxue lowered her eyes. After glancing at Chu Pengfeiâs hand, she raised her eyes again. She stared at him with her clear and beautiful eyes and said, âYou donât know. No matter what, I want to try!â
As Master Meng stared at Lou Qianxue, a strange light flashed past his eyes.
Lu Liang also froze, then he burst out laughing after a while.
âThree months? Hahahaha, Lou Qianxue, you think you can surpass me after learning weapon refinery for three months? Then youâre too naive!
âThe barrier for weapon refinery has always been greater than that for alchemy. Refinery is a very mighty and tough profession. Being an alchemist is nowhere comparable to it! Do you think that just because your alchemy attainments are impressive, your weapon refinery will also be impressive?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The crowd looked at Lou Qianxue as if they were looking at a fool.
âThis is my condition. If you accept it, Iâll agree to have the bet with you.â
âHumph! Lou Qianyue, since you dare to accept my bet, thereâs nothing for me to be afraid of. Three months, so be it. Iââ
Lu Liang had yet to finish when...
âHold on!â Master Meng suddenly interrupted him.
âHuh?â
The crowd doubtfully looked at Master Meng.
Master Meng bitterly smiled at Lou Qianxue. âMiss Lou, Iâm sorry. My disciple, Lu Liang, will be leaving the Imperial city with me one month later. He may not be able to wait three months for you.â
When the crowd heard this, they sighed in relief.
âMaster Mengâs attitude toward Lou Qianxue is indeed strange. Looks like he wants to stop this bet.â
However, at the next moment...
Master Meng continued to say, âHowever, if you can fix the date of the bet one month later, you can still clash with him and get the answer to your question.â
âOne month?â
Before the crowd could react, Chu Pengfei exploded. âOld thing! Are you shameless?â
âItâs shameless enough for your disciple to bet on weapons with a young lady who has never learned weapon refinery. Now that Lil Sis Qianxue suggested the bet to be three months later, youâre being even more shameless and trying to change the time to one month!!!â
The more Chu Pengfei talked, the more furious he became. âWhat do you mean by this? Do you think that Lil Sis Qianxue has no backing, so you can casually bully her?â
âFrankly speaking...â The crowd also remained speechless. âEven as the top refiner in the Imperial city, Master Meng is being too much by doing this!â
âYoung Master Chu.â Master Meng looked Second Young Master with a gentle gaze. âMiss Lou is my guest. I want to seek her help for a matter. Why will I harm her?
âIâve already said earlier. She refined a Spirit yesterday Item that could increase offensive strength by thirty percent on her first attempt at weapon refinery. As for Lu Liang, to be frank, Lu Liangâs most outstanding product to date can only increase offensive strength by twenty-five percent. In other words, even if Miss Lou has a bet with Lu Liang on weapons now, she may not necessarily lose, not to mention one month later!â
