Chapter 18: You Are Indeed Playing Tricks on Me!

Lou Qianxue looked at the Cabinet Elder and Lou Xiaoxiao’s shocked face. She suddenly felt that she seemed to have created too much sensation. She muttered to herself and shook her head. “That is not the case.”

Indeed, it was not! The Cabinet Elder heaved a sigh of relief. He stretched his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead and became very ashamed. “I did not expect that actually, Miss Qianxue, you are a talented martial arts practitioner in the world… It was funny that back then, I thought you were reaching for something beyond your grasp when you chose the Mountain Splitting Fist… I’m actually the one who had a restricted outlook. I’m really shortsighted… ”

Lou Qianxue did not know about this. She raised her eyebrows slightly. “It’s alright, Cabinet Elder! If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first. Lou Xiaoxiao is still waiting for me here.”

The Cabinet Elder froze for a while. “You are not going in to look at the other martial arts?”

Lou Qianxue shook her head. “There’s no need to! Mountain Splitting Fist is enough.”

Mountain Splitting Fist used the strength of the whole body and accumulation of martial arts. Its power would only get advanced since it followed the cultivator’s rise in cultivation. The potential was very big. Hence, she planned to cultivate Mountain Splitting Fist from Greater Mastery realm to Perfection in the coming period of time.

Moreover, she needed a sword now to practice the [Mountain River Sword Technique]. One had to know that those rare martial arts books in the city lord’s mansion could not even be compared to the [Mountain River Sword Technique].

…

When the two people went out of the bookstore, everyone else outside had already dispersed.

Lou Xiaoxiao followed behind Lou Qianxue. She suspiciously looked at her. “Did you really cultivate Mountain Splitting Fist to the Greater Mastery realm within one day?”

“Yes!”

“How did you do it?” Lou Xiaoxiao was extremely curious.

Upon hearing this, Lou Qianxue suddenly turned around and looked at Lou Xiaoxiao’s sword. Her eyes slightly narrowed. “Want to know?”

Lou Xiaoxiao awkwardly nodded.

Lou Qianxue stretched out her hand and pointed at her sword. “Use it for exchange.”

Lou Xiaoxiao bit her teeth. But she took her sword off and gave it to Lou Qianxue.

Lou Qianxue satisfactorily carried the sword on her back and said, “Mountain Splitting Fist has gone through hard work and numerous revisions. Of course, I have cultivated it.”

“You are playing tricks with me?” Lou Xiaoxiao’s face immediately changed. She furiously stared until her eyes became round. “And what was the transaction you said just now?”

“Your temper is really bad.” Lou Qianxue glanced at her. “I think this way. You are being angry now only because your brother’s tendons are broken. Then, I’ll heal your brother’s tendons. Won’t our grudges be resolved?”

“Heal? It’ll take a hundred days for the bone to knit, and the tendons to heal. That injury is so serious. Can it heal just by you saying that it will heal?”

“It’ll work by using the pill. According to what I know, using a second stage superior-grade pill will work.”

“Second stage superior-grade pill? Lou Qianxue, are you dreaming? The alchemist who we worship in our city lord’s mansion can only synthesize a second stage inferior-grade pill at his best. You just open your mouth and speak of the second stage superior-grade pill. Do you think that this pill is a jelly bean, and you can casually buy it from anywhere?”

“If it cannot be bought, then one can look for someone to refine it.”

“Lou Qianxue, you are still acting foolish! Didn’t I say that no one in our city lord’s mansion can refine the healing pill that you are talking about! Or should I say, you think that you can refine it?”

“I cannot cultivate it, but others can.” In the heavenly mainland, only people who had cultivated to the ninth level of the spiritual realm could gather the danhuo in their palm and refine that pill. But right now, she was only in the third level, so naturally, she could not refine the pill.

“You are indeed playing tricks on me! Lou Qianxue, I’m lazy to accompany you to continue with this nonsense. I want to deal with—”

Lou Xiaoxiao had not finished talking when she felt a chill in her whole body. A frightening wave of crisis enveloped her in an instant. It made her hair stand on end…

When she came back to her senses, she saw Lou Qianxue standing with a cold gaze. She was holding her sword and pointing it at her neck.

The cold sword was stuck tightly to her skin. It instantly made her whole body break out in cold sweat.

Lou Xiaoxiao stared with both eyes widely in disbelief!

How was it possible?!

When did Lou Qianxue draw out her sword?
