Chapter 55 : Chapter 55

Chapter 55: So What If I Bully You?

“Sure enough, she still has not given up. What on earth is she trying to do?”

The moment Lu Xunxian learned that Feng Qingyu had come looking for Fu Qitian, he understood that she was likely trying to use Fu Qitian to find them.

What truly puzzled him, however, was that it had been Feng Qingyu herself who had said they would go their separate ways and have nothing to do with one another. So why was she now taking the initiative to come looking for them again?

“Could it be that she wants to get rid of me and the children?”

In a flash, Lu Xunxian considered that possibility, but he quickly dismissed it.

No matter what, Feng Qingyu was still the children’s mother. Besides, they had never gone to disturb her, so how could she possibly bring herself to do such a thing?

Shaking his head, Lu Xunxian decided to keep watching. He wanted to see how Luo Qianxue would handle this matter.

When Luo Qianxue heard the name Fu Qitian, she could not help freezing for a moment, because she knew that Lu Xunxian’s steward was Fu Qitian.

But she merely let out a cold laugh and said,

“What, have you come all the way to the gates of Myriad Dao Academy looking for someone?”

“Myriad Dao Academy has no such person. Please leave.”

With that, Luo Qianxue turned as if to leave.

Seeing this, Feng Qingyu immediately grew anxious and stepped forward, trying to stop Luo Qianxue.

But the instant she touched Luo Qianxue, Luo Qianxue struck back with a palm and sent her flying. Feng Qingyu was seriously injured on the spot and collapsed to the ground.

“Elder Zheng, you saw it as well. She was the one who tried to attack me first. I merely struck back.”

Elder Zheng froze for a moment, but quickly reacted and said sternly,

“Indeed. You actually dared lay hands on our Headmaster. You are courting death. Everyone, come out!”

As Elder Zheng gave the order, countless powerful figures rushed out from within Myriad Dao Academy in an instant and came to stand before Luo Qianxue.

Before long, Feng Qingyu and Wu Wuji were completely surrounded.

“Who dares attack our Headmaster?!”

Feeling the incomparably powerful auras around him, among which were several mighty Saint Emperor experts, Wu Wuji’s expression immediately turned ugly.

He could already tell that Fu Qitian was most likely truly inside Myriad Dao Academy. He simply did not understand why Luo Qianxue was so openly hostile toward Qingfeng Sacred Land.

If they still refused to yield now, they would probably both die here today.

Wu Wuji rose to his feet, cupped his hands toward Luo Qianxue, and apologized.

“My apologies. We were indeed in the wrong in this matter. We are willing to offer compensation and an apology. I hope that, for the sake of Qingfeng Sacred Land, this matter can end here.”

As he spoke, Wu Wuji reluctantly took out the one thousand cubic meters of Low-Grade Spirit Liquid he had previously gotten back from Lin Changkong and handed it over to Luo Qianxue.

After taking the Storage Ring and seeing what was inside, Luo Qianxue let out a cold laugh.

“What, you think a mere thousand cubic meters of Low-Grade Spirit Liquid is enough to send Myriad Dao Academy away? Or is that all Myriad Dao Academy is worth in the eyes of your Qingfeng Sacred Land?”

Hearing Luo Qianxue’s words, Wu Wuji cursed furiously inwardly. He had no idea how Qingfeng Sacred Land had offended this new Headmaster of Myriad Dao Academy so badly that she would treat them like this.

But he could only suppress the anger in his heart and look at Luo Qianxue with an apologetic expression.

“My apologies. It is simply that I truly do not have any more resources to spare. I hope you can be accommodating.”

“Hmph. Get lost. If you dare come to Myriad Dao Academy to cause trouble again, you may not leave alive next time.”

Luo Qianxue also knew that she could not press them too far. Otherwise, Qingfeng Sacred Land might really make a move.

Although, with Lu Xunxian there, she did not believe Qingfeng Sacred Land would be able to do anything to Myriad Dao Academy.

Still, she did not want to borrow Lu Xunxian’s strength too often. She wanted to stand at Lu Xunxian’s side through her own power. She did not want to become a mere ornament.

When Luo Qianxue finally allowed them to leave, Wu Wuji did not dare delay for even a moment and hurried away with the heavily injured, unconscious Feng Qingyu.

After they had left, Luo Qianxue turned toward the academy experts who had arrived and thanked them.

“Many thanks to all of you for coming.”

“There is no need for such courtesy, Headmaster. This is what we ought to do.”

All the academy experts present were at least in the Saint Monarch Realm, yet they treated Luo Qianxue with great courtesy.

First, Luo Qianxue possessed a Saint-Grade Spiritual Root and was also the Headmaster’s disciple. Her future achievements would surely be limitless.

Second, they had all learned that Luo Qianxue had already taken Lu Xunxian as her master.

That was a supreme expert powerful enough to utterly crush their entire Myriad Dao Academy. Since Luo Qianxue had already gained Lu Xunxian’s backing, she was naturally worthy of their respectful treatment as well.

After they had all dispersed, Luo Qianxue put away the Storage Ring before turning and hurrying back toward Lu Xunxian’s residence.

At that moment, inside the residence—

Even Lu Xunxian felt somewhat surprised. He had clearly not expected that Luo Qianxue, who normally looked like such a gentle and refined young lady inside the residence, would have such a sharply contrasting side to her.

Yet he did not feel any dislike because of it, because he knew exactly why Luo Qianxue treated Qingfeng Sacred Land with such hostility.

Very soon, Luo Qianxue came rushing in from outside and went straight to Lu Xunxian.

“Master, those two came looking for Senior Fu. Are they Senior Fu’s former enemies? Should we simply eliminate them?”

“They are not Fu Qitian’s enemies. Let this matter end here. You have already punished them severely enough. I doubt they will dare come again.”

Lu Xunxian shook his head and spoke in an even tone.

When Luo Qianxue heard Lu Xunxian’s words, she was first stunned, but she quickly reacted. If they were not Fu Qitian’s enemies, then could they be Fu Qitian’s friends?

But since Lu Xunxian had already told her not to bother with it any further, she could not be bothered to concern herself with it anymore.

Just then, the two little ones had just finished class, and the moment they entered, they saw Luo Qianxue.

“Sister Qianxue!”

“Mhm. What did you learn at the academy today?”

Luo Qianxue crouched down and gently patted the two little ones on their heads.

The two of them wore expressions of pure enjoyment. At that moment, they were feeling a kind of maternal affection from Luo Qianxue that they had never experienced before.

“All right, stop troubling Sister Qianxue. Sister Qianxue needs to prepare to enter Seclusion and break through to the Saint Monarch Realm.”

After guiding her for a period of time, and with Luo Qianxue having already been stuck at the Peak of the Saint King Realm for quite a while, it was indeed time for her to begin preparing to break through to the Saint Monarch Realm.

Although the two little ones dearly wanted Luo Qianxue to stay and play with them, they also knew that proper matters came first, so they could only agree unhappily.

“Oh.”

“You two should go cultivate as well. Did you not say that you wanted to participate in the Tiansheng Grand Tournament? At your current level, it will be very difficult for you to achieve a good result there.”

Lu Xunxian looked at his son and daughter as he spoke.

After learning that Luo Qianxue would also be participating in the Tiansheng Grand Tournament, he knew that his son and daughter would probably not be able to take first place.

Although he had a way to let his son and daughter break through to the Saint Emperor Realm before the Tiansheng Grand Tournament, doing so would damage the foundation of their cultivation.

Therefore, it was still better for cultivation to proceed step by step, in proper order.
