Chapter 73: You? No way!

Chapter 73: You? No way!

To avoid coming into contact with anyone else, Lou Qianxue took a different route to return to the City Lord Mansion .

The City Lord Mansion was as deep and majestic as always .

Seeing a girl dressed in a white shirt at the entrance, the guard stopped her . After a short moment of shock, he realized that it was Lou Qianxue, and his expression became funny for a moment . He then granted her entry .

Lou Qianxue saw it but remained silent . She just returned to the yard where she lived .

This yard was located in a remote corner of the City Lord Mansion . It was quiet and simple .

Lou Qianxue pushed the room door open and found that everything inside was as usual . She failed to even see a speck of dust . It was as if she had never left .

It surprised her .

Her grandfather was a great man . Due to how busy he was, he seldom managed the matters in the house . He didn’t have time to get someone to clean her room . As for Jiang Suying, she probably couldn’t wait to see her leave the City Lord Mansion with all her things .

If it weren’t them, then who?

“Qianxue! Lou Qianxue!”

Lou Qianxue was just thinking when she heard a happy and eager voice coming from outside the door .

She raised her brows and turned around to see outside the door .

With her hair tied in a high ponytail and her eyebrows looking beautiful, Lou Xiaoxiao stepped into the room with a look of excitement . “You finally came back! A rumor floated around the mansion that you were dead, I didn’t believe it! You indeed didn’t disappoint me . It’s nice to see you again!”

“You were the one who cleaned my room?” Lou Qianxue looked rather confused . The feelings inside her were complicated .

She never had much interaction with Lou Xiaoxiao . The visit to the Alchemy Union was the only thing they had done together, yet Lou Xiaoxiao had acted toward her in such a way .

Lou Xiaoxiao’s face flushed, but she contained her excitement . “I-I… am just repaying you for your guidance . ”

Her eyes then lit up as she continued, “Speaking of which, Lou Qianxue, I really have to thank you . I followed your guidance and practiced the Mountain Splitting Fist . My progress was rapid . Within half a month, I perfected the Mountain Splitting Fist . Even my grandpa wants me to properly thank you . ”

Lou Xiaoxiao’s grandpa was the first elder of the City Lord Mansion . He had a very high position in the mansion, and it wasn’t easy to receive his praise .

Lou Qianxue did not care . She looked at Lou Xiaoxiao intently, and her expression softened . She spoke . “That’s because you have a good foundation . Now, why did you come to look for me so hurriedly?”

“Oh! I just came to see if you are okay and if you needed any help . ”

“What do you mean if I’m okay?” Lou Qianxue did not understand .

“Previously, when you had gone out to practice, Fifth Elder had fallen ill . Afterward, we found out that he was feigning it and had left the City Lord Mansion instead . Everyone thought that he had gone to kill you and you wouldn’t make it back . Ahem… so I came here to check up on you . ”

Lou Qianxue raised her brows and looked at her . With a smirk, she said . “You have been underestimating me . ”

“But that is Fifth Elder! I know you’re impressive, but we don’t know how much better Fifth Elder is than us… Oh right! How did you manage to avoid him?”

“Perhaps I had good luck . ” Lou Qianxue nonchalantly replied and laughed . “I didn’t bump into him . ”

Lou Xiaoxiao sighed in relief . “You’re really lucky… If you had met him, you would’ve lost your life…”

Seeing her expression, Lou Qianxue knew that even if she told her the truth, Xiaoxiao wouldn’t believe her .

Lou Xiaoxiao thought of something again, and excitement made its way to her face . “Qianxue, during that period, you must have learned a lot, right? I improved quite a bit as well . Why don’t we spar for a bit?”

“You?” Lou Qianxue gave the girl in front of her a nonchalant look and shook her head . “No way!”

“You! Do you look down on me?” Lou Xiaoxiao became angry . She was now more determined to battle with Lou Qianxue . “I must battle with you today!”
