The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 547 Third Miss, Chu Qingluan
The eyes of everyone present were practically glued to her upon seeing this woman.
No one had ever seen such a beautiful woman. The men's gazes were filled with admiration.
Even the women were the same. Faced with such a beautiful and perfect woman, they couldn't even feel jealous.
Gao Tianhe's eyes were also glazed over, but his reason for being so was different from everyone else's.
He was shocked by the woman's appearance.
"Third, Third Miss... Why did you come out? Aren't you in the inner hall?"
Gao Tianhe stammered.
"I heard the sound of the Zhentian gong (Heaven-shaking Gong) in the inner hall, so I came to see... The sound of the Zhentian gong can reach the inner hall, which means a peerless genius has appeared."
The woman said casually.
Her eyes swept over everyone's faces, as if searching for the peerless genius.
"There was indeed a martial artist with a Tian Pin Jia Ji (Heaven Grade, Class A) potential value just now, but he has already been killed. This kid did it. He not only killed that peerless genius, but also killed a special envoy of my Zhushen Dian (Hall of Gods). He even broke the Zhentian gong... This is my dereliction of duty, Third Miss. Please wait a moment while I take his dog's life, and then I will go with you to ask the Hall Master for punishment!"
Gao Tianhe put on a self-reproaching look.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the woman said mercilessly, "Gao, you are mistaken. A Tian Pin Jia Ji potential value is not worthy of being called a peerless genius. Only someone who can shatter the Zhentian gong is qualified to be called a peerless genius!"
Only when the Zhentian gong cannot withstand the tester's potential will it shatter.
However, the woman was too lazy to explain these words.
"What, you say he is a peerless genius?"
Gao Tianhe almost jumped up as if his tail had been stepped on. "Third Miss, are you mistaken? This kid not only shattered the Zhentian gong, but also killed a disciple of my Zhushen Dian..."
"Gao, are you questioning me?"
"No, no... This subordinate dares not!"
The woman's phoenix eyes widened, and Gao Tianhe quickly bowed and admitted his mistake.
"It doesn't matter if the Zhentian gong is broken, anyway, a peerless genius has already appeared, and it will be useless in the future... As for him killing a Zhushen Dian disciple, I think there must be some misunderstanding."
After speaking, the woman walked up to Chen Xiao and gracefully bowed, "Young hero, hello, I am Chu Qingluan. My father is Chu He, the Hall Master of the Zhushen Dian."
Whoa--
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
No one had expected that this woman, who was as beautiful as an immortal, was actually the daughter of the Zhushen Dian Hall Master.
No wonder Gao was so respectful when he saw her.
While everyone was in an uproar, Gao’s eyes glazed over again.
He had been in the Zhushen Dian for so many years, and it was the first time he had seen the Third Miss being so polite to a man.
What was even more infuriating was that this man was just a mortal, and a mortal who had killed a Zhushen Dian disciple.
Gao felt that his worldview was about to collapse. He was both angry and jealous.
"Miss Chu, hello, I am Chen Xiao."
Chen Xiao said calmly, without any fluctuations in his eyes or expression.
Chu Qingluan was slightly stunned. She knew very well how beautiful she was and how noble the identity of the daughter of the Zhushen Dian Hall Master was.
But the man in front of her didn't think highly of her because of this, which surprised her a bit.
She couldn't tell whether he was pretending or if his heart was really without any fluctuations.
But that didn't matter. What was important was that the peerless genius that her father had been searching for had finally appeared.
"Miss Chu, actually, what happened just now was like this..."
Seeing that Chu Qingluan was not disrespectful to him, Chen Xiao wanted to explain why he had just killed a Zhushen Dian disciple.
But before he could finish speaking, Chu Qingluan blocked his mouth with a finger.
"No need to explain, Mr. Chen. I believe this must be a misunderstanding. I won't mind, and my father won't either."
What's going on here?
Everyone present was going crazy, not only because Chu Qingluan didn't intend to pursue Chen Xiao's actions at all, but also because her actions were too ambiguous!
Qi Qingfei, who was on the side, was filled with jealousy, but she was not jealous of Chu Qingluan, but of Chen Xiao...
Gao, who was behind them, was even more frantic. One had to know that even a Zhushen Dian deacon would have his eyes gouged out if he dared to glance at the Third Miss.
But now, the Third Miss actually put her finger on Chen Xiao's lips... Wasn't that equivalent to intimate contact!
In fact, at this moment, Chen Xiao also felt a trace of throbbing in his heart.
This Chu Qingluan was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her. She also had a faint fragrance on her body that was captivating.
He never expected that Chu Qingluan would make such an intimate move towards him.
After all, the two of them had known each other for less than a minute.
After capturing Chen Xiao's strangeness, a hint of cunning flashed in Chu Qingluan's eyes, and that cunning also carried a hint of victory.
Immediately afterwards, she smiled sweetly and said softly, "Mr. Chen, please follow me to the inner hall!"
Chen Xiao nodded slightly and followed.
Seeing that the Third Miss was about to leave with Chen Xiao, Gao couldn't help but ask, "Third Miss, what about the others?"
The others referred to the other martial artists who met the selection criteria, and those in the top fifty of the Tian Bang (Heavenly Rankings).
"It is your task to lead them to the inner hall. Why are you asking me?"
Chu Qingluan did not have as good a look for Gao as she did for Chen Xiao. As she spoke, she did not stop walking and led Chen Xiao into the Zhushen Dian.
However, when she reached the entrance of the hall, she suddenly turned her head and said, "By the way, Mr. Chen and I have something to say. You can come in half an hour later!"
Then, Chen Xiao walked into the hall with Chu Qingluan in the envious eyes of everyone.
The scene inside the Zhushen Dian was very different from what Chen Xiao had imagined.
He thought that the Zhushen Dian Hall Master, elders, protectors, and hall masters would all be here.
But in reality, it was deserted, as if no one had been here for a long time.
In the very center of the main hall stood a huge bluestone, with many names engraved on it.
Many of these names were familiar to Chen Xiao, Xiao Zhan, Duan San, Yang Potian, Gongsun Yi, and so on...
So, what Qi Qingfei said about leaving a name in the Zhushen Dian referred to this place. He just didn't know where the Zhushen Dian's treasure pavilion was.
After releasing his divine sense, Chen Xiao quickly discovered the location of the treasure pavilion, but the treasure pavilion was empty, and the treasures inside seemed to have been moved away.
This couldn't help but make Chen Xiao even more puzzled.
Seeing the confusion on Chen Xiao's face, Chu Qingluan asked, "Mr. Chen, what seems to be you looking for?"
"Oh, it's nothing."
Chen Xiao didn't want Chu Qingluan to think that he was coveting the treasures in the treasure pavilion, so he casually asked, "Miss Chu, this doesn't seem to be the real Zhushen Dian?"
Hearing this, Chu Qingluan was slightly stunned, and then smiled.
"Mr. Chen is indeed smart. This hall was originally built just to deceive people... But you don't have to worry. Next, I will take you to see the true face of the Zhushen Dian!"
