Chapter 2311: Fifth Elder (2) Chapter 2311: Fifth Elder (2)
Translator : MoonWhisperer, TWIP Editor : TWIP
Fifth Elder’s gaze swept over Su Luo: “Follow me!”
Then, he turned and began to leave.
However, how could Su Luo leave with him?
She had thought about it and concluded that the only reason why Fifth Elder would be looking for her was that he wanted the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Falling Cloud Flower. However, she wanted to leave this herb for herself.
Moreover, there were still many people watching them here. Even if Fifth Elder wanted to threaten her, he wouldn’t dare to act so brazenly. After all, didn’t he still have his image to protect?
Yet, once they left this place, it would be hard to be certain about that.
So, the corners of Su Luo’s lips curved up into an ambiguous smile that accompanied her voice as she said: “Fifth Elder, if you have anything you wish to say to me, please say it. I need to enter a pill refining room and get to work.”
Although Su Luo spoke this line with a smile, it was very clear her words meant a refusal.
Everyone was stunned.
This young lady was very bold! She actually dared to say this to the Fifth Elder!
Naturally, Fifth Elder had also never imagined that there would still be someone who dared to refuse his orders inside this Pill Refining Tower. His tall and lanky figure stopped in its tracks, and his impression of Su Luo worsened somewhat.
Li Luoming said previously that this wench was crafty and unruly, as well as recklessly willful and extremely condescending—someone who considered everyone else to be beneath her. It seemed he had been telling the truth.
Fifth Elder really wanted to walk away angrily.
However, thinking of the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Fallen Cloud Flower and then of his dream of becoming a Grandmaster Apothecary, he ultimately turned around slowly. Yet, when he took a good look at Su Luo’s gaze, a cold gleam burst from his eyes.
Su Luo smiled nonchalantly as she looked at him, seeming neither servile nor overbearing. It was an easy-going and magnanimous appearance.
Fifth Elder glared at her coldly, but Su Luo met his eyes without the slightest sense of fear.
This was a battle of auras, where the first one to speak would lose the battle. Then, the loser would have no choice but to allow the opposing side to lead them by the nose.
Originally, Fifth Elder still took Su Luo for a silly little girl. However, he sensed through this exchange of gazes that this girl was very powerful. Her innately imposing manner caused even him to turn away uncontrollably.
As expected, Su Luo was truly worthy of being the person who managed to spend 30 million points to obtain the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Falling Cloud Flower. She was not that easy to push around.
The corners of Su Luo’s lips lifted slightly as she carried her herb basket and turned around to leave.
She was making it clear that she didn’t want to give any of her attention to Fifth Elder.
How bold… Truly, how very bold of her… that she actually dared to ditch Fifth Elder and leave by herself!
The surrounding crowd of people gazed at Su Luo with very complicated expressions. There was shock, admiration, curiosity, and, of course, doubt in their eyes.
Just when Su Luo took her seventh step on her way out, the cold gleam in Fifth Elder’s eyes became increasingly intense and striking. It seemed like it was about to surge out!
Ultimately, in this battle of auras, Fifth Elder was the one who opened his mouth to speak first: “Stop right there!”
Hearing Fifth Elder speak, the bystanders looked at Su Luo with more astonished gazes.
Fifth Elder usually always had a displeased expression and was serious in speech and manner, appearing solemn and stern. When he swept gaze over, everyone would keep quiet out of fear. Yet now, he was very clearly admitting defeat first…
That young lady was too amazing!!!
This was what the unspeaking crowd thought. Yet at this moment, Su Luo had a rather ominous premonition.
She actually wished that Fifth Elder would just let her leave. Due to what he said earlier, she could take advantage of Fifth Elder’s prideful nature to deal with him. Nonetheless, Fifth Elder was still in a flexible position where he could either bow and submit or stand tall, so it was better for her not to make a move.
However, since Fifth Elder had now spoken——
Su Luo stopped in her tracks anyway and turned to speak with a sweet smile: “Fifth Elder, don’t you have disciples to wait on you? Could it be that you still need me, this small and petite girl to help you?”
Su Luo used a single line to block off Fifth Elder’s words.
