Chapter 698: Chapter 699: Where is Lou Qianxue?

Dan Taiyuan lifted his feet again and walked toward Lou Qianxue. “How did you learn it?”

“Um.” Lou Qianxue became a little nervous. “Well, I’ve already learned it.”

“Hmm.” Dan Taiyuan did not continue to ask. He stood still and extended his hand toward her. “Come here.”

“...”

Lou Qianxue pursed her lips and walked over to him. “How is your search for the spirit bone going along?”

Dan Taiyuan pulled her into a hug. “I haven’t found it yet.”

Lou Qianxue listened to his heartbeat. “I plan to refine a Broken Seal Pill tomorrow.”

“...” A look of surprise flashed across Dan Taiyuan’s eyes. “No need.”

Lou Qianxue chuckled, then looked up at him. “Don’t overthink. It’s not for you. Moreover, I don’t have to learn inscriptions from you anymore.”

The previous night, Lou Qianxue had triggered the Mountain River Boundary Marker for the third time.

The first time she had done that, she had inherited the memory of the “Alchemy God.”

The second time, she got the memory of the “God of War.”

The third time, not only did she gain numerous weapons and inscriptions, but she also inherited a special ability, “teleportation.”

After inheriting the inscriptions last night, she had been itching to try it out herself. Therefore, she had drawn many inscriptions using leftover materials.

Today, at the auction stage, if she had used a simple fourth-grade inscription, she wouldn’t have been able to trap a Heavenly Martial Realm expert.

What she had used was not just a fourth-grade inscription, but a bunch of fourth-grade inscriptions. Together, they created an “inscription array formation” and doubled the strength of the inscriptions. That was how had she managed to trap the Heavenly Martial Realm expert!

“Inscription array formation” required a high level of mastery in inscriptions. It was a long-lost skill...

Nowadays, people only used inscriptions on weapons and armors. They had long forgotten that the power of “inscriptions” was extraordinary.

“Sure, you can stop learning.” Dan Taiyuan pressed her down on the bed. “Just make me feel good...”

“...”

A few days passed by.

“Uncle Long,” the butler Lou Qianxue had chosen, decided to stay at the Lou family house.

Lou Qianxue gave him a sixth-grade Broken Seal Pill, which allowed him to regain his formidable cultivation level. At the same time, she also gave him a poison that only she and Lou Potian had the antidote to.

Then, Lou Qianxue turned her attention toward training the Moonlight Clan members.

In the blink of an eye, five days had gone by.

Lou Qianxue said to Lou Potian, “Grandpa, I have to go into seclusion for a while. During this period, I won’t see anyone no matter who they are or whatever reasons they have!”

“Sure. However, don’t forget about the martial arts competition. Remember to make it in time for the competition.”

“Yeah.”

In the past few days, war threatened to break out at the border shared by the Tian Zhao Empire and the Nandu Nation.

On behalf of the royal family, Zhen Guogong’s mansion had organized a martial arts competition to recruit the aspiring youths of Tian Zhao into the army. The news spread all over Tian Zhao and created a furor.

An innumerable number of youths from hundreds of prefectures in the empire rushed to sign up at the Imperial city.

However, the bar to sign up for the martial arts competition was extremely high. Only those with cultivation above the Essence Martial realm could sign up. This requirement alone eliminated many youths who had traveled to the Imperial city.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, these youths, who had not qualified, stayed behind. They planned on waiting for the martial arts competition to begin, then watching the matches.

On the second day after Lou Qianxue went into seclusion, Xu Tailang returned.

His return caused a huge commotion in the Imperial Academy.

“Senior Brother Xu has already reached the Heavenly Martial Realm? Oh my goodness! Wouldn’t that make him as formidable as Emperor Ying? Unbelievable!”

“As expected of the top student of our Imperial Academy! Senior Brother Xu is remarkable and unparalleled!”

“A 28-year-old Heavenly Martial Realm expert!!! His talent is shocking! It’s rare even in the Extraterritorial, right?”

Before the Imperial Academy students got over their surprise, Xu Tailang stood up on the stage again. “Where is Lou Qianxue?”

He snarled. “Come up and accept my challenge!”

Boom!

The entire place went into an uproar!
