Under Sheng Manyu’s overwhelming interrogation, the entire room fell into silence, and many faces revealed a hint of amusement.
Especially Su Junneng, with his mouth and nose bleeding from the beating, his eyes practically brimming with triumph.
Let’s see how you handle this! Su Junneng thought to himself.
Unexpectedly, Xue An, who was at the center of the storm, did not show the slightest ripple on his face. Instead, he relaxed comfortably against the low couch, lightly tapping his fingers on the tea table.
It was only after a moment that Xue An chuckled lightly, "Not bad, but I must say, you’ve got two things wrong!"
"Oh? Which two?" Sheng Manyu asked coldly.
"First, the one who wants to be apprenticed to the Golden Cauldron Pavilion is not me, but him!" Saying this, Xue An pointed to Xing Yushu sitting behind him.
Only then did the crowd notice this silent and unspoken young man, but they soon showed a hint of disdain.
Because whether in terms of clothing or demeanor, this Xing Yushu clearly was just an ordinary youngster inexperienced in the ways of the world, without anything particularly remarkable.
Sheng Manyu sneered even colder, "And the second point? Don’t tell me you have no feelings for my sister?"
Her tone was filled with sarcasm.
But just then, Xue An, who had been looking down, suddenly raised his head and glanced at her.
Originally full of scorn, Sheng Manyu was instantly frozen on the spot, with the words stuck in her throat, unable to speak.
Because under that one look from Xue An, Sheng Manyu felt every hair on her body stand on end, and a chill ran through her heart.
That feeling was like being stared down by a Tyrannosaur, sending shivers down one’s spine.
But these feelings were fleeting; as soon as Xue An lowered his gaze again, everything faded away like the tide, so fast it seemed as if it had been but an illusion.
Then Xue An spoke with an indifferent tone, "Secondly, I came to the Golden Cauldron Pavilion merely to fulfill a friend’s request and to have a look around. If I am unsatisfied with the result, I will take back some of the things here!"
At this, Xue An paused, casting a cold glance at Sheng Manyu, "As for the so-called power of the Sheng Family... in my eyes, they are but ants!"
These words, like a heavy bomb, left many bewildered.
Even Sheng Manyu was a bit stunned, and it took a while before she came to her senses, then she couldn’t help but fly into a rage.
"What arrogance, to dare to insult the Sheng Family like this..."
Before she could finish, there was a loud pop.
A streak of white light flashed by, striking directly on Sheng Manyu’s shoulder.
Caught off guard, Sheng Manyu was sent stumbling back more than a dozen steps by the force, barely managing to steady herself, then a look of pain appeared on her face.
Because the white light had completely shattered her scapula.
The intense pain made this pampered and revered young lady from the Sheng Family almost explode with rage.
Whereas Xue An spoke indifferently, "I just warned you, any more nonsense, and I’d smash all your teeth, but considering you are Sheng Miaotong’s sister, I will give you some face for now!"
At the same time, Lu Shifa also recovered from the shock. He had long wanted to show off in front of everyone, and, upon hearing these words, he naturally became even angrier; thus, he grunted and his aura surged, preparing to teach this ignorant kid a lesson.
Xue An’s lips curled upward with a trace of cold amusement. He had already grown impatient with these folks.
Actually, if not for Sheng Miaotong, Sheng Manyu would already be dead by now.
