The spectators looked at the guards from the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce in bewilderment. One after another, they got out of the way.
âWhatâs the matter? Even the son of Li-in-charge, Li Xin, came out?â
âI donât know. Looking at how aggressively theyâve come here, Iâm afraid they are hostile.â
âLetâs go further away from them to avoid getting caught up in an unexpected calamity!â
Lou Potian recognized the newcomers, and his expression worsened.
Lou Qianxueâs cold gaze swept past âYoung Master Hong.â Young Master Hongâs expression froze, then he hurriedly retreated a step and hid behind Li Xin.
âHa...â Lou Qianxue chuckled. âIs this the way the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce welcomes guests?â
A tinge of anger flashed past Li Xinâs eyes. He snorted, forcefully went forward, and said, âMy Four Seas Chamber of Commerce has lost a very important bottle of fourth-grade pills worth hundreds of millions. Someone has seen you taking them. Let me advise you to quickly hand them over!â
Shoosh!
Everyone exclaimed in shock. One by one, they looked at Lou Qianxue with strange gazes.
âIt was no wonder that she did not feel heartache at all spending money.â
âNo wonder she could be so extravagant at such a young age! So she stole from them!â
âBut, she was too bold to dare steal pills from the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce. Sheâs simply tired of living!â
The elder, who was firmly trapped by the Fixed Inscription on the stage, revealed a malicious smile. âHumph! Wretch, even if I canât deal with you, thereâll be others to do so! I hope that these people from the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce can ruthlessly teach her a lesson. Itâll be best to let her feel so miserable that she would wish to die!â
âFourth-grade pills?â Lou Qianxue froze for a while. She then narrowed her eyes and said, âAre you telling me that your so-called eyewitness is him?â
Lou Qianxue pointed at Young Master Hong.
Li Xin raised his chin and arrogantly said, âThatâs right! Itâs him! Wretch, you took things from our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce and still wish to remain safe and sound. Youâre dreaming! Immediately allow yourself to get arrested, and follow us back to cooperate in our investigation!â
Lou Qianxue reacted and said, âSo you want to catch me and mobilized so many troops. You even fabricated such an excuse. However...â She looked at Li Xin with an ambiguous smile. âYou actually said that I stole fourth-grade pills. Are you insulting me?â
Li Xin became unhappy. His cold gaze was fixed on Lou Qianxue as he stared at her with hostility. âInsulting you? Wretch, what do you mean?â
âHa...â Lou Qianxue sneered. âDidnât you find out what kind of person I am before taking action? These are merely fourth-grade pills. Do I have to steal them?â
Shoosh!
The entire place went into an uproar!
âMerely fourth-grade pills? This girl is so boastful!â
âMaster Huo from Fengyang prefecture is the only remaining fourth-grade alchemist in our Tian Zhao Empire now. She actually called fourth-grade pills âmere fourth-grade pillsâ? Is she joking? Could it be that she dares to look down on a fourth-grade alchemist? Or is she a fourth-grade alchemist?â
âHowâs it possible! According to what I know, Master Huo from the Fengyang prefecture is an elderly person. Right, itâs rumored that Master Yan, a fourth-grade alchemist from many years ago, has recovered and become a fifth-grade alchemist now. He can look down on a fourth-grade alchemist, but itâs impossible for this young lady in front of me to be Master Yan!â
âRight, right, right. Speaking of this, thereâs another person in the Tian Zhao Empire whoâs qualified to look down on a fourth-grade alchemist. He is Fourth Royal Uncle!!!â
âItâs obvious that sheâs none of them!â
The sounds of the crowd drifted into Li Xinâs ears. He looked at Lou Qianxue in disdain and coldly chuckled. âI donât care who you are. You have to pay the price for stealing from our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce! Iâll give you ten breaths. Either you leave with us and accept the investigation, or die!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
