Chapter 6: The Fear-Inducing Senior Sister Luo
When Su Ye's voice rang out, Luo Qinghuan felt a sense of security she had never experienced before.
After all...
She had always thought this guy was intimidating. But as Su Ye took control of her body, a peculiar and strange sensation surged through her entire being.
With Su Ye in charge, no one noticed the subtle shift in the young girl's aura.
"Well then, Junior Sister Luo, your jade token will remain with me for now. Once I break through my cultivation, I'll definitely thank you properly," Gong Sun Xue said smugly, assuming Luo Qinghuan had once again caved to her demands. Of course, her promises of gratitude were nothing more than empty words meant to placate.
"Senior Sister Gong Sun, isn't this a bit..."
Even An Ran couldn't help but feel uneasy witnessing this scene.
There were rumors that Senior Sister Luo possessed extraordinary talent—a natural-born cultivator destined to become a Holy Maiden or even an empress-level figure. However, her gentle nature made her prone to yielding in disputes.
And just as expected...
It seemed the rumors held true.
But suddenly—
The clear, melodious voice of the young girl rang out like silver bells, interrupting An Ran's thoughts.
"All right."
"If Senior Sister Gong Sun plans to thank me, I don't need anything extravagant. Just give me a few thousand-year sacred medicines."
"Hmm...?"
This statement left Gong Sun Xue and the others stunned.
They instinctively looked up, their eyes widening in shock as they stared at the girl before them. Her once soft and timid expression was gone, replaced by icy cold eyes and a face full of frosty disdain. She gazed directly at them, exuding an invisible pressure that weighed heavily on everyone present.
"Th... thousand-year sacred medicines..."
"Junior Sister Luo, surely you're joking with me," Gong Sun Xue said with a forced laugh, trying to ease the tension.
"I'm not joking."
However—
Su Ye crossed his arms, refusing to give her any leeway.
"I... I don't have any thousand-year sacred medicines."
Seeing that Su Ye wasn't giving her an inch, Gong Sun Xue's beautiful face twisted into an ugly scowl as she gritted her teeth.
"You don't?"
"Then, Senior Sister Gong Sun, how is your slow cultivation my problem?"
"A useless person is still useless. You've borrowed this jade token for over ten days, yet you haven't advanced a single realm."
Su Ye sneered, his gaze filled with contempt as he stared at Gong Sun Xue.
"What... Junior Sister Luo, you..."
Hearing these harsh words, Gong Sun Xue's face turned ashen. The word "useless" pierced her heart like a sharp arrow.
"Senior Sister Luo, even if your talent surpasses ours, you shouldn't speak to Senior Sister Gong Sun like this..." one of Gong Sun Xue's companions interjected nervously.
"Shut up."
"Senior Sister Luo, you..."
"You too, shut up."
"..."
With a single command, the group fell silent. Staring at the girl's now icy and detached beauty, Gong Sun Xue, An Ran, and the others were utterly dumbfounded. It was as if Luo Qinghuan had transformed into a completely different person.
Meanwhile—
Luo Qinghuan's soul huddled in a corner, gazing at Su Ye with sparkling admiration.
"You..."
"Luo Qinghuan!"
"If you didn't want to lend it, fine! But why humiliate me like this?"
"Here's your token!"
Gong Sun Xue clenched her teeth, flipped her hand to reveal the jade token, and flung it onto the ground. With a toss of her hair, she turned to leave.
"Pick it up."
Seeing this, Su Ye remained calm, simply issuing the command in a flat tone.
"I won't pick it up unless you..."
BANG!!!
Before Gong Sun Xue could finish her sentence, a terrifying Heavenly Sovereign-level presence swept across the area!
A surge of overwhelming power slammed into Gong Sun Xue's abdomen, sending her flying backward and crashing violently onto the ground. A mouthful of blood sprayed from her lips.
"Cough..."
Gong Sun Xue's eyes were filled with terror. She had never imagined that the usually docile Luo Qinghuan would dare to attack her so fiercely. How could someone at the half-step Divine Sense Realm possibly stand against a Heavenly Sovereign?
"I'll say it again."
"Pick it up."
At this moment—
Su Ye's voice echoed once more.
Gong Sun Xue struggled to lift her head, meeting the girl's icy, emotionless gaze. Her breathtakingly beautiful face showed no trace of expression, simply repeating the same command.
But—
From her presence emanated an icy, murderous intent so chilling that Gong Sun Xue felt her life slipping away with every passing second. If she dared to utter another word, her life would be forfeit.
In that instant—
Without hesitation, Gong Sun Xue ignored the searing pain coursing through her body and scrambled toward the discarded jade token on the ground. Trembling with fear, she picked it up and handed it back to Su Ye with both hands, her entire body shaking uncontrollably.
"Lo... Luo Junior Sister, here's your token... This... this is my fault. I apologize sincerely."
Su Ye accepted the token without even sparing her a glance. Turning around, he strode toward the Cultivation Tower.
At the same time, he spoke to Luo Qinghuan within her mind.
"Luo girl."
"Did you see that?"
"This is how it's done—crush them mercilessly, and it's over."
In her mind—
The tiny white-robed soul of Luo Qinghuan nodded furiously.
"Yes! Yes, yes, yes!"
