No, rather than saying Shao Qingrou automatically knew when to keep quiet, it was more like she had been forced to shut her mouth.
She looked as if someone was grabbing her firmly by the throat, and she couldn’t even continue breathing. Her face was also turning pale beneath the dirt, and her whole body was convulsing relentlessly.
Seeing that the other party had shut her mouth, the sixth prince nodded his head in satisfaction. He looked towards Lu Jiu Que in an indifferent manner and asked, “Why are you still here?”
Lu Jiu Que was confused. “Huh?”
The sixth prince squinted, his handsome face filled with impatience. He asked, “Don’t you need to take part in the sect test?”
Lu Jiu Que nodded her head vigorously as though she was trying to give herself a headache. “Yes… I have to!”
“You have to, but you’re still here dilly-dallying away? Get going!”
“Yes, I’ll leave right away!”
Having said this, Lu Jiu Que grabbed the young man whose mouth was full of mud, turned around, and hopped onto another flying demonic beast. She got the young man to maneuver the beast, and then, with a single shout, the demonic beast charged into the clouds and left.
It wasn’t until they had been flying in mid-air for quite a long time that Lu Jiu Que suddenly snapped back to reality.
Wait a minute. Why had she had to leave just because he asked her to go? Was she possessed by a ghost? Why should she have acted so compliant as to obey everything that the sixth prince asked of her?
Could it have been that this body had left behind… uh… its docility?!
That was just too strange!
No matter how hard she thought about it, Lu Jiu Que still couldn’t figure out an answer, so she could only focus on the flying demonic beast.
After thinking for a long time, Lu Jiu Que suddenly shouted, “Damn it!”
She hadn’t seen what was on the end of that two-faced poison flower of a person. What a big loss!
However, she supposed that once the true nature of that little poison flower had been exposed, there would be all kinds of trouble awaiting her, right?
That young man was so scared of Lu Jiu Que that his entire body was tensed.
Lu Jiu Que noticed his condition, and so, with raised brows, she asked, “What’s your name?”
The young man’s expression showed his extreme awkwardness. He seemed to want to retain his dignity, but on the other hand, he also seemed to be afraid of Lu Jiu Que’s reputation as a human jinx. There were also feelings of gratitude towards Lu Jiu Que for saving his life. His look of discomfort made Lu Jiu Que roll her eyes. She raised a hand, gave him a slap on the back of the head, and said, “Speak up!”
“Ye Hui… My name is Ye Hui!”
Ye Hui?
Lu Jiu Que recalled her body’s original memory. This young man, whose name was Ye Hui, was the son of General Ye, and like Lu Jiu Que, he was a descendant of a family of generals.
It was just that Ye Hui was far luckier than Lu Jiu Que. After all, both his parents were alive and well, his family had achieved many illustrious military exploits, and they held a remarkable status.
Upon seeing the constipated look on Ye Hui’s face, Lu Jiu Que knew that the other party didn’t want to have this conversation with her. She shrugged her shoulders and paid him no further attention.
If this young man hadn’t been the one and only person who hadn’t opened his mouth to mock her, she would have definitely given him a taste of the excruciating pain one would feel when his acupoints were sealed, a pain that one would rather die than experience.
After Lu Jiu Que closed her eyes, a blushing Ye Hui secretly looked her up and down.
Though she looked very dirty, the tip of her nose was quite chiseled, and the shape of her lips was very beautiful as well…
Ye Hui’s heart skipped a beat. How could he have never realized before that Lu Jiu Que had such pretty features?
Lu Jiu Que’s eyelashes moved, and Ye Hui immediately turned around wearing a guilty look.
Observing no reaction from behind him, he gently patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.
He said to himself over and over again that he must have seen wrong, must have seen wrong…
This was the ugly woman, Lu Jiu Que. With such an ugly face, how could he find her… good-looking?
…
At the same place where Lu Jiu Que had departed from, the temperature of the surroundings suddenly dropped after she left. Coldness filled the air, making the people feel as though they were in a field of ice.
And the source of this coldness was none other than the sixth prince in his dark robe.
Fortunately, the sixth prince didn’t stay for long. Otherwise, the people would have really started to wonder if they would just freeze to death there…
