Chapter 44 Su Youwei’s Progress (2/2)

Qi Ling looked at Qi Yue. Although he did not know what the latter was planning, he still did as instructed.

...

The beautiful rays of the setting sun enveloped Great Zhou City.

In the Great Zhou Institute, Su Youwei had just left the institute after her classes, walking along the street towards the southern part of the city where her home was located. She did not linger for long in the institute recently because Zhou Yuan was pretty much absent.

A young girl’s long and slender legs lightly hopped over a ditch. Her pony tail bouncing with the vigour of youth, drawing admiring gazes from passersby.

Passing through familiar street after street, her footsteps suddenly stopped after taking a corner as she raised her head and looked to her front.

Liu Xi was leaning against the wall, several figures behind her.

Liu Xi’s pretty face was icy as she coldly stared at Su Youwei. The latter’s elegant appearance caused tiny embers of jealousy to flit across her eyes as she frostily smiled, “Come walk with me Su Youwei.”

“What do you plan on doing?” Su Youwei’s eyebrows knitted together slightly.

Liu Xi coldly snorted, “Humph, Zhou Yuan has stolen something from Qi Yue. You will be used to exchange for it.”

Su Youwei’s pretty face turned a little frosty when she heard this. “What a joke. Do you think that Qi Yue’s things would even catch his highness’ eyes?”

“Sharp-tongued wench!” Liu Xi’s eyebrows turned almost turned vertical as she shouted, “Catch her!”

The moment her words faded, two figures immediately shot out from behind her. Faint Genesis Qi undulations surrounded their bodies, testament to their five channel strength.

Su Youwei did not move as she icily stared at the two individuals that were shooting towards her. It was only when the their hands grabbed at her like eagle claws that she suddenly made her move.

Two fingers were thrust forward, jade light swirling around them while formidable Genesis Qi tore through the air like a mealstrom.

Ch ch!

The two fingers landed, causing the two figures to be sent flying backwards, fresh blood flowing from their shoulders.

Su Youwei’s hands hung by her side while Genesis Qi light swirled around her body, causing her aura to rise steadily.

Liu Xi stared at Su Youwei, eyes wide open and her jaw clenched so hard she almost shattered her teeth. “You’ve unblocked your sixth meridian channel?!”

She clearly remembered Su Youwei had only just unblocked her fifth meridian channel slightly over a month ago. How had she so quickly unblocked her sixth channel too?

Su Youwei flatly replied, “Unblocked it ten days ago.”

Su Youwei had not slouched off while Zhou Yuan was away from the institute. She received the full efforts of headmaster Chu Tianyang’s personal tutelage. After all, in Chu Tianyang’s opinion, compared to the explosive Zhou Yuan, a stable type like Su Youwei was less worrying. Hence, he had done all he could to train her over this period of time.

Thus, she had not been stagnant while Zhou Yuan was progressing.

Liu Xi’s face was steely green with anger, fire practically spitting from her eyes. She had only managed to unblock her sixth meridian channel half a month ago after lengthy amounts of training and a huge expenditure of resources. Yet, Su Youwei was now practically at her heels using only half the time. How could this not make her jealous.

Liu Xi frostily said, “Do you believe that you will be able to leave just because you have unblocked your sixth meridian channel?”

“Liu Ye, go catch her for me. It will be best if you also carve up that little minx’s face!”

As Liu Xi’s words rang out, a figure slowly walked out from behind. Powerful Genesis Qi spread, displaying the strength of seven channels.

Su Youwei’s expression finally became grave when she saw this. However, while she was trying to think of a plan, her heart suddenly shook as two figures shot out from behind and landed at her side.

They seemed to be ordinary men but the Genesis Qi undulations from their bodies had reached the level of seven channels.

“You are?” Su Youwei was taken aback when she saw the two newcomers.

The two replied with a soft chuckle, “We were sent by his highness miss Su. His highness was worried that Qi Yue would let out his anger on you, thus we have been protecting you in secret.”

Su Youwei blinked when she heard this. Although she did not say anything, the corners of her mouth subconsciously raised a little while her sour mood due to Liu Xi’s appearence took a turn for the better.

The two men lifted their heads, looked Liu Xi and said in a flat voice, “Please watch yourself miss Liu. Do not become Qi Yue’s chess piece.”

Liu Xi’s face had practically become purple due to the interference, but she knew that she could no longer do anything to Su Youwei.

“That blasted Zhou Yuan!”

Liu Xi furiously cursed. Abandoning the deadlock, she led her men and left with a stomp of her foot.

The two imperial guards turned their heads and said to Su Youwei in a low voice, “Miss Su, let us send you back home.”

“I’ll be troubling elder brothers.” Su Youwei did not reject. She paused for a moment before continuing, “Do you know how his highness is doing? He has been absent for almost two months.”

“Don’t worry miss Su, his highness is a crucial point in his training. He will definitely be back for the class ranking exam in half a month.”

Su Youwei nodded. She did not know what would be the outcome of Zhou Yuan’s training session, but she had heard that Qi Yue had already unblocked his seventh meridian channel. For their A class to take back first place at the year-end class ranking exam, a bitter battle could not be avoided...
