Boarding Life

Chapter 736

The moment the woman appeared, she looked expressionlessly at Qin Qi and his companion, "I am Xue Yun, a custodian of the Holy Maiden Association. Don’t you know that the Holy Maiden Association typically doesn’t entertain guests?"

Wan Huarou was quite surprised upon witnessing this scene, "She actually did come out."

With his hands behind his back, Qin Qi thought for a moment before looking at the woman in front of him, "If I’m not mistaken, your Holy Maiden Association decides whether to meet with visitors based on the volume of the bell, correct?"

If the bell isn’t loud, it means that the person isn’t very strong, and the Holy Maiden Association can completely ignore them.

If the bell is loud enough, it means that the person has some power, and the Holy Maiden Association, to avoid trouble, must come out to meet them!

Xue Yun, wearing a white cheongsam, exuded feminine beauty.

She looked at Qin Qi calmly, "Hmph, you do have a bit of wit. But don’t think that just because you got to see me, you possess some significant skill or advantage!"

"It’s merely a way for our Holy Maiden Association to avoid unnecessary trouble. So, enough small talk; do you have any business here?"

Qin Qi sized up Xue Yun.

No wonder there are online rumors that every member of the Holy Maiden Association is incredibly beautiful and remarkably talented.

Looking at Xue Yun, she seemed about the same age as Wan Huarou, yet her cultivation had reached the Tier Eight True Level.

It’s worth noting that Wan Huarou achieved her level through sheer resource investment.

Xue Yun had reached such a level as well.

Such talent, in the world outside, would undeniably make her a darling of heaven, attracting countless admirers.

However, with his current strength, even though Xue Yun was beautiful and talented, she no longer piqued his interest.

After one glance, he went straight to the point, "I want to see my apprentice. According to my research, she’s currently within the Holy Maiden Association!"

Xue Yun’s eyebrow slightly lifted, "Your apprentice? What’s her name?"

"Wu Shuangshuang!" Qin Qi asked hastily, "Is she within your Holy Maiden Association?"

Xue Yun snorted coldly, "Shuangshuang, yes, that’s correct. She is currently within our Holy Maiden Association!"

Qin Qi beamed with joy, "Then Miss Xue Yun, could you please let us, master and apprentice, have a meeting?"

Xue Yun sneered aloud, "I think you have misunderstood something. Since Shuangshuang has joined our Holy Maiden Association, it means that she has entered a better sect, and you are no longer qualified to be her master!"

"I suggest you two shouldn’t meet, lest you humiliate yourself!"

Hearing this, Wan Huarou glared fiercely and immediately defended Qin Qi, "You’re talking nonsense, do you know who he is?"

"Oh? Who is he?" Xue Yun asked dismissively.

They had encountered many talented individuals from the Martial Arts District before; in her eyes, Qin Qi was just a standout among the geniuses of the Martial Arts District.

But he was not worth their Holy Maiden Association’s attention.

Wan Huarou, burning with anger, said, "He is Qin Qi, currently the number one young man in the Martial Arts District!"

Saying this was no exaggeration now.

While the Holy Maiden Association rarely engaged with the outside world, they certainly kept an eye on major events occurring outside.

Clearly, Xue Yun had heard of Qin Qi’s name, with a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

But she soon spoke icily, "Qin Qi? Heh, so what? Go back, you’re no longer Shuangshuang’s master, and Shuangshuang has no interest in seeing you!"

"From the moment she joined the Holy Maiden Association, she has already become a high and mighty divine maiden. How could commoners like you possibly meet her?"

Wan Huarou bit her silver teeth, her face blushing with anger, and glared at Qin Qi, "Did I not tell you? These people from the Holy Maiden Association are all lunatics, no, they’re deranged!"

"Divine Maiden? Pah!"

Xue Yun suddenly radiated an extremely powerful aura.

This aura directly pressed towards Wan Huarou, "Miss Wan, please mind your words. Although our Holy Maiden Association does not want to provoke trouble, it does not mean we are afraid of trouble!"

A surprising scene occurred.

After emerging from the icy cave, Wan Huarou’s cultivation had already reached the Tier Nine True Martial.

But now, when faced with the oppressive aura from Xue Yun, she trembled all over, and in the struggle, she completely fell behind.

Just as Wan Huarou was intimidated.

A wave of terrifying power surged from Qin Qi, like a tsunami.

This momentum instantly overshadowed Xue Yun’s aura, which had steadied itself a notch above Wan Huarou’s.

Then, Xue Yun felt an icy coldness spread, causing her to tremble and retreat several steps!

"You!" Xue Yun gritted her teeth, "Are you two looking for trouble?"

Qin Qi spoke coldly, "Miss Xue Yun, I only want to see my apprentice. If Shuangshuang denies me as her master after seeing me, I will leave immediately, with no force or plea!"

"But if she acknowledges me as her master, then I believe the Holy Maiden Association owes me an explanation?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Yun sternly rebuked, "An explanation from the Holy Maiden Association? Nonsense, I’m telling you that you won’t see Wu Shuangshuang, what can you do about it?"

"Are you planning to force your way into the Holy Maiden Association?"

Qin Qi suddenly felt troubled by the situation.

After all, this Holy Maiden Association had always been known for its mysterious nature.

Merely a custodian like Xue Yun was already so formidable, who knew how many powerful individuals lurked within!

As Qin Qi found it difficult to proceed.

Wan Huarou snorted softly, "If your Holy Maiden Association doesn’t give a proper explanation on this matter, however Qin Qi decides, my Wan Family will unconditionally offer support!"

"If your Holy Maiden Association chooses to be unreasonable, my Wan Family will accompany you to the end!"

Hearing this, a layer of seriousness appeared on the once arrogant face of Xue Yun.

She was very aware of the Wan Family’s influence, and if things became too strained, the Holy Maiden Association would be troubled too.

However, her attitude remained unchanged.

Because the people inside had not yet spoken.

As the atmosphere deadlocked.

Wan Huarou and Qin Qi’s eyes showed signs of tension.

Suddenly, another voice sounded.

"Our Ming Family also unconditionally supports Brother Qin Qi. Holy Maiden Association, you abducted Brother Qin Qi’s apprentice, and now you’re acting so unreasonably by not letting them reunite. Isn’t that a bit too much?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Wan Huarou felt an ominous premonition.

Turning around, she saw that the newcomer was indeed Ming Yao!

Ming Yao led a few members of the Wan Family, making her way directly to Qin Qi’s side.

Then, standing affectionately and considerately beside Qin Qi, she acted especially cheery.

Wan Huarou immediately gritted her teeth in anger.

What on earth? Are these cunning women so quick to catch onto things? First it was Gu Xiaoyou, and now Ming Yao!

Every time, right when her good deeds were about to succeed, giving Qin Qi a huge favor, someone came to ruin her plans!
