Chapter 45: The Noble Elites
Xiong Ziru looked at the girl beside him in incredulity, was that explosive power really from this frail body? Seeing her turn to look at him, Xiong Ziru panicked and lowered his head.
Zhan Qing's smile was somewhat amusing, could it be that she had scared off the man in front of her with just one move?
"Is there money on the ground for you to pick up?"
"Huh? Oh, oh...... This, doesn't... " Xiong Ziru scratched his head and spoke incoherently.
"Why are you always lowering your head and won't look up, aren't you afraid of going astray?"
"Oh, oh, I see, but I have a question that I'm not sure if I should ask." The man hesitated.
"Okay."
"You, how old are you this year? I just saw you and it seems like you're an orange-level Law Array, aren't you a Spirit Emperor?"
"What's wrong with being 14?"
"It's nothing, it's just that you're too talented." Hearing the accurate answer, Xiong Ziru felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He was already 20 years old this year and had only recently entered the rank of Lingdi. He thought his talent was astonishing enough, but he didn't expect that there was someone outside who was better than him - a six-year-younger girl who was also a Lingdi. This blow was really big!
On the way, the two of them looked at each other without a word and walked silently to the Water Temple.
Just arrived at the door, saw a group of people waiting there, with a slight provocative raised eyebrow, what does this mean?
"Be careful, Xiao Qing, these people are all nobles from the Academy and members of the Four Great Families. Their strength is not to be underestimated, you must be cautious, do you understand?" Despite feeling a bit uncomfortable, Xiong Ziru still didn't want anything to happen to this talented young girl, so he kindly reminded her.
"Thanks for reminding me, I know my limits." Zhan Qing smiled and nodded at him.
"That's good, I'll go first, you remember, don't let conflicts happen!" Even if he was still worried, Xiong Ziru gritted his teeth and hurried away.
Zhan Qing looked calmly at the people in front of her, men and women, who were dressed in luxurious attire. How could she move so quickly? Just now, she had revealed a hand, and in less than half an hour, she had already lured all these people out? Well, it was just as well, saving her from having to investigate one by one, and instead, she could just take them down with a single move.
"You're the Warlight Crazy!" The speaker was a young man with deep, dark eyes, a straight nose, and red lips that seemed to invite people to kiss him. He looked very evil.
War lightly mad with a smile without words.
"Hello, it was too late yesterday, so I came to visit you now. My name is Ximen Linshuang, and they are all my friends." The man said with a seemingly enthusiastic tone, but his eyes still held a hint of embarrassment.
Ximen? The Ximen family, ranked third among the four major families, has branches in the entire empire and even in other countries, showing their wealth.
"New Luo Auction House?"
"Ah, yes, it was founded by my family." Ximen Yunshuang gave her a look that could only be understood and not expressed in words.
It's no wonder that she was able to take out so many demon beast cores in Holy Light City and supply them for a long time, and also has the VIP badge of the New Luo auction house. How could this not have caught the attention of the Ximen family? It's likely that someone had already investigated her background before she arrived, but they still need to confirm her strength before deciding whether she is worth befriending.
"What about them?" The person next to him nodded towards the side.
Ximen Qingxue originally wanted to find the War Light Madman on his own, and the family's message showed how much they valued this girl. If he could get along with her, it would be absolutely beneficial and harmless, and he was also curious about what kind of person the girl in the message was. Just as he was thinking of going to investigate, who knew that he would run into these people as soon as he went out? Their relationship was both friendly and competitive, each wanting their own family to dominate. Therefore, when he noticed something or someone, others immediately became alert and insisted on following him together. His frustration and suffocation came from this.
"That's Dongfang Qi, the young master of the Dongfang family. The Dongfang family specializes in beast taming, so this guy is also a beast tamer." Zhan Qingkuang looked him up and down as he introduced himself. His black hair hung down, his sword-like eyebrows slanted upwards, his sharp eyes seemed to pierce through, his thin lips were pursed, his facial features were angular, and his tall and lean figure was like an eagle soaring in the desert, exuding an aura of arrogance that looked down on heaven and earth.
She saw him looking at her and Dongfang Jue nodded slightly towards her.
"This is Nangong Ao, the young master of the Nangong family. Don't look down on him because of his age, his innate talent for cultivation is not ordinary. He's already a three-star Spirit King at just 12 years old." When she heard the words "Nangong family", Zhan Lightcrazy's pupils constricted and her face turned gloomy. Nangong Ao? The younger brother of Nangong Lightcrazy, this body that was possessed by her own younger brother?
The young boy's skin was as white as cherry blossoms, with agate-like black pupils, and a slightly chubby face. He thought he had concealed it well, but in fact, everyone could see his arrogance. When Warlight saw this young boy, he suppressed the unusual feeling that his body conveyed very well.
"That's Beidong Qimò, a member of the Beidong family. They're mainly known for refining equipment, but this kid is really disappointing. He's never managed to refine any decent weapons and give them to us." Ximen Lingshuang pouted in complaint, her expression causing the girls standing next to her to glare with anger.
Beidong Qi's ink painting wears a white robe, standing in the wind, with a jade-like demeanor, as if a celestial being. Just like high-quality ancient jade, warm and simple in nature, without any shocking waves.
"As for them, they are also some noble ladies. There are a few people who aren't here, when we have time to meet again, I'll introduce you." It seems that those girls weren't important figures either, so Ximen Rong didn't bother introducing them one by one.
"Alright, now let's talk about you!"
Upon hearing this, some people perked up their ears, wanting to listen and see what was different about her.
She saw the war lightly, and with a slight movement of her clothes, the white shirt with blue edges swayed with her movements, showing off her elegance. The girl's clear and bright eyes, willow-leaf eyebrows, tender and delicate red lips, fair skin, each ear wearing a small red flower, black hair falling like a waterfall on her shoulders, echoing with the white robe, making her seem as if she had walked out of a painting, so ethereal, dust-free, mysterious and pure. Upon closer inspection, the corners of her mouth always hung with a perfect arc, exuding an aura of invincibility and superiority.
At this time, a clear voice broke everyone's reverie. War Lightcrazy's red lips lightly opened: "War Lightcrazy, 14 years old, One-star Spirit Emperor, orphan, no father or mother."
It took a while for everyone to calm down, and they were all amazed by her talent. However, when they heard the second half of what she said, they felt a bit awkward, after all, it was uncomfortable for them to hear her say that she was an orphan.
"Alright, alright, let's not think about those unhappy things anymore. Come on, everyone, lend a hand and clean this place up properly. Qingkuang will be living here from now on. Qingkuang, is this your first time in the Imperial City? After we finish cleaning up, I'll take you on a tour of the city, how does that sound?" Ximen Ruxue enthusiastically called out to everyone to help, and they threw away all of Hua Die's belongings.
Visiting the Imperial City is also good! Just get familiar with the environment at that time.
