Chapter 523 – After the victory (2)
Elder Beichen curled his lips and teased: “Oh, I say, Elder Nangong, aren’t you giving yourself too great of an importance? Maybe this little young lady’s thoughts are entirely different from yours?”
Elder Nangong nearly flew into a rage from humiliation, and he slapped the table heavily: “Beichen Mu, I order you to shut up!”
“Ok, ok, already so old, what’s the point of quarreling. Not afraid of being made fun of by the younger generation.” The president and minister of education at the top Imperial Academy hurriedly tried to smooth things over. He hit at both parties, and then all smiles, looked at Su Luo: “Su girl, this duel, it can only be said that Su Qing feared to fight and slinked off. We will start to offer a bounty for her and place her on the wanted list, letting everybody in the continent participate in hunting her, what do you think?”
Su Luo’s complexion restrained the coldness, quietly looking at the Venerable president of the top Imperial Academy.
His hair and beard were all white, and he showed a childish countenance. He had a touch of imposing dignity of being a leading person within his kind appearance, making people’s hearts feel reverence, not daring to exceed half a step out of bounds in front of him.
Worthy of being the Venerable president of the top Imperial Academy.
However, Su Luo was not a student of the top Imperial Academy, why should she fear this Venerable president?
Su Luo nodded, her voice light: “No need, after all, she is still my sister. Even though she is heartless towards me, but I cannot treat her with injustice. Please dismiss the wanted notice and bounty for her arrest.”
Once Su Luo said these words, it immediately caused an uproar in the fully packed stadium. Before, Su Qing wanted to kill Su Luo at any cost, so everybody had thought that Su Luo would also be the same. However, no one had imagined her to be so magnanimous!
A thread of astonishment also flashed through the Venerable president’s eyes: “Are you saying you are giving up the right to put the opposition on the wanted list? Are you certain?”
“Yes, I am giving that up.” Su Luo stood straight, her gaze was gentle yet tranquil. Her expression was serene and reserved, her voice was even more ordinary, like that of the wind.
Elder Beichen stroked a few strands of his goat-like beard, appreciatively nodded his head slowly, “As expected of the woman His Highness Prince Jin fancies, having a calm and impressive air that makes people accept willingly.”
Su Luo indifferently smiled, her expression calm as ever: “Senior’s praise is too much.”
But Elder Beichen merely continued to stroke his white beard, smilingly shaking his head.
This girl clearly knew that the person who saved Su Qing had outstanding martial arts and that even if Su Qing became a wanted person in the entire continent, it wouldn’t really have any meaning. That was why she pardoned the opposition and also showed off her own benevolence and righteousness. This was killing two birds with one stone.
This girl’s age might seem young, but she had wisdom, courage, insight and drive. She knew to conceal her strength and bid for time, and also the time to show off; she was quite good. If Little Shadow also had this kind of good fortune in the future, then that would truly be the Beichen family’s blessing.
Recalling Beichen Ying’s frivolous, loose and casual appearance, Elder Beichen worriedly breathed out a sigh.
After the three elders left the stage, the masses of spectators were also asked to leave.
Just when Su Luo wished to walk forward, all of a sudden, a few extra black shadows appeared in front of her, directly blocking her exit.
Su Luo looked at these people before her, her eyes narrowing slightly. She remained calm and collected.
“You dare to injure Qing’er, I, Lin Zixuan, will definitely not let you get away with it! Su Luo! Right now, I challenge you to a duel! Will you accept or not?!”
Lin Zixuan, Su Qing’s number one admirer, has been secretly in love with her for a long time.
When he saw Su Qing’s appearance being ruined in front of his own eyes, her leg damaged, that kind of bone-piercing heartache, others simply could not understand. Therefore, he wanted to take Su Qing’s place to find Su Luo for revenge!
“Purple Sunflower Sect?” Su Luo calmly and collectedly shot him a glance. These few people were Su Qing’s seniors and fellow disciples? Coming to find her to carry out their revenge?
“The thirteenth generation disciple of the Purple Sunflower Sect, Lin Zixian, formally challenges you, Su Luo, to a duel, a life-and-death agreement, do you dare to accept it or not!” Lin Zixian’s eyes had a menacing and ominous glint.
