Chapter 656: Chapter 656: Get lost!

A day later.

Night fell.

The group of people heading toward the Martial Arts Competition venue found a run-down temple.

“We will arrive in Qing Gu Town tomorrow. Let’s just make do at this temple for tonight.”

Xia Qingyun was the young master of Qingshui Villa. His cultivation was also decent, and he was also somehow the best among them.

No one objected. Thus, they set up a camp in the run-down temple and got ready to eat.

After a long time.

Xia Qingyun held a stick of roasted meat, which gave off an aroma, and walked toward Lou Qianxue and Dan Taiyuan. He looked at Lou Qianxue with passionate eyes and said, “Miss Lou, Qing Wu is great at roasting meat. Try this.”

Lou Qianxue looked up and glanced at the enchanting woman by the fire, who looked at her with jealousy and hatred. She raised her eyebrows and reached out to take a stick. “Thank you.”

“...” Dan Taiyuan frowned a little. He quietly looked at Lou Qianxue with his cold and emotionless eyes.

The temperature around them instantly turned icy-cold.

At that moment.

“Young Master Dan Taiyuan, I roasted this meat. Try it.” The Young Mistress of Qingshui Villa, Xia Qingying, came over to them with a plate of roasted meat as well. With a smile just like her brother’s, she got closer to Dan Taiyuan and tried to improve her relationship with him.

As if he had not heard her, Dan Taiyuan reached out and grabbed the stick of roasted meat in Lou Qianxue’s hand.

Whoosh!

He threw it out...

“Master Dan Taiyuan.” Xia Qingying bit her lower lip and spoke in a soft, feminine voice. “The ones Qing Wu roasted might not be fully cooked yet. Try mine.”

“Get lost!” Dan Taiyuan expressionlessly said.

Lou Qianxue pitifully looked at Xia Qingying.

At the next moment, an elixir was pushed to Lou Qianxue’s lips.

“Drink it.” Dan Taiyuan ordered in a cold voice.

This man...

Lou Qianxue gave him a look that was not so friendly.

Can you not be so oversensitive?

However, she still opened her mouth and drank the elixir beside her mouth...

“...” Xia Qingyun’s face instantly turned black.

Xia Qingying’s eyes slightly reddened. When she saw Dan Taiyuan use his sleeves to wipe Lou Qianxue’s mouth, crystal tears fell out of her eyes.

Whiz!

She suddenly got up and glared at Lou Qianxue. Then, flicking her sleeves, she left.

Xia Qingyun was livid, but he restrained his anger. With a twisted smile, he said, “Since the both of you have no appetite, I shall not entertain you then.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The brother and sister returned to the fire nearby. Their group of nine, including the officials from Qingshui Villa, separated themselves from Lou Qianxue and Dan Taiyuan.

After Lou Qianxue drank the elixir, she yawned and leaned in Dan Taiyuan’s arms. She found a comfortable position and shut her eyes.

“I don’t believe it. She’s so young. How high can her cultivation be?”

“Hmph! That man’s Essence Martial Power has no fluctuations. Why are the two of them so arrogant when they are receiving our protection? This is outrageous!”

By the fire, the voices of their discontent were not concealed. A few sentences would appear from time to time.

Lou Qianxue opened her eyes and looked at the group. Then, she turned around and shut her eyes again to nap.

After an unknown amount of time...

“Hey! Lou Qianxue.”

An unruly voice woke her up.

“Yes?” Lou Qianxue lazily opened her eyes. She looked at the snobbish young lady before her and calmly asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Since you’re going to join us in the Martial Arts Competition, you should show us your skills.”

“Exactly.” Another official stood behind Xia Qingying.

Xia Qingyun smiled and said, “Miss Lou, we need to have a good understanding of your skills before we can arrange how you shall play at the Martial Arts Competition.”

A slight smile appeared on Lou Qianxue’s face. “How do you wish to observe my skills?”

Hei Song, the official with the highest cultivation, lifted his chin and said with a dark expression, “As an elder, I shall not bully you. How about you pick anyone among the other officials to fight?”
