Strongest Eccentric Consort

Chapter 720: Lou Qianxue? Seduced Young Master?

“Protect Lou Qianxue?”

The aura of the lady in a crimson mask turned frosty. She snarled. “I forbid it!”

“Hmm? Miss Ni Chang...” The foreman confusedly looked at the crimson-masked lady. “Miss Lou is a friend of Young Master, and she treated his chronic illness. Young Master has ordered everyone to treat Miss Lou with the same respect as we treat him with.”

“Shut up! I forbid it! I forbid it! Didn’t you ask me just now who dared to offend me? Let me tell you! It’s Lou Qianxue! It’s Lou Qianxue!”

“However...”

The foreman was hesitant.

Does Miss Ni Chang know Lou Qianxue?

“Hmph! That woman is shameless! She seduced Brother Shi! A while back at the Liuyun Prefecture, Brother Shi even got annoyed at me because of her!!! I don’t care! Brother Shi is my betrothed husband. No woman should dream of seducing Brother Shi! I forbid it!”

“Lou Qianxue? Seduced young master?”

“You should understand that the Gate of Seven Kills is jointly managed by three of our families. Only if I marry Brother Shi, can he truly be in control of the Gate of Seven Kills! If you have his best interests at heart, then listen to me and kill Lou Qianxue! And you must not let Brother Shi find out! Or else, if something happens to Brother Shi and my marriage, then no one knows who shall be the future master of the Gate of Seven Kills!”

The foreman froze.

The Gate of Seven Kills was a massive organization, and their presence in the Imperial City of the Tian Zhao Empire was just the tip of the iceberg. However, Shi Mengyang was truly the ‘Crown Prince’ of the Gate of Seven Kills. He stayed in Tian Zhao to seek medical treatment from ‘Gongsun Heng’ and to train as well.

Hence, all the people of the Gate of Seven Kills in the Tian Zhao Empire were from the Shi family. As a part of the Shi family, the foreman naturally wished that the Shi family could be in the most dominant position out of the three families. He wanted them to be able to fully control the Gate of Seven Kills.

Under his golden mask, the foreman’s eyes flickered with uncertainty.

After a while, he retreated and knelt on the floor. “I comply!”

***

After the martial arts competition ended, the name “Lou Qianxue” became well-known in the empire.

She became the one and only strongest youth in all of the Tian Zhao Empire.

Many people referred to her as the number one person in the empire after Emperor Ying!

However, they still had many questions about the expedition.

Who is the general?

In the blink of an eye, five days passed by.

The next day was the day when the troops would set off.

In the past five days, Emperor Ying had redeployed 20,000 fine soldiers from the major cities.

The general, together with Zhen Guogong, would lead 20,000 fine soldiers to the border. There, he would reinforce the troops at the border to fight off the invasion from Nandu Nation.

“Qianxue, I envy you. I really want to fight on the battlefield too.”

Lou Xiaoxiao had not managed to ascend to the hill range battle stage because of Xu Tailang’s tactics. Thus, she did not qualify to join the army.

It wasn’t just her; all the juniors of the Lou family were the same.

Lou Qianxue smiled and patted her shoulder. “Sister Xiaoxiao, don’t be disappointed. Before I leave, I have a present for you.”

“Hmm?” Lou Xiaoxiao curiously looked at her. “What present? Is it a cultivation technique or secret books again?”

Lou Qianxue shook her head and mysteriously smiled. “No... how about you call An Shaoning over first before I give you your present.”

Lou Xiaoxiao pouted. “Fine! Then, I’ll await your present.”

Lou Xiaoxiao went over to invite An Shaoning.

Lou Qianxue then looked for Lou Potian. “Grandpa, I made these pills in my free time. Keep them and distribute them as a reward to those who need it.”

Lou Potian knew how capable his granddaughter was, and he quickly took the pills from her. “Okay! But Qianxue, you’ll be setting off tomorrow... Sigh! Grandpa really wanted you to remain by my side, but an eagle will spread its wings one day eventually... Remember to take good care of yourself, and do not get injured.”
