Rock Antelope Sect, You're the Real Hick

Upon hearing the familiar voice, the woman standing in the corridor was startled at first, but her face quickly darkened.

"Jungle Hillbilly?"

"Que Feng, are you talking about yourself?"

"A person in their fifties or sixties wearing a headdress to try and look young, and gloves that are one black and one white, and the two gloves are even different lengths."

"I didn't know. I thought your Que Feng Sect couldn't even gather a pair of identical gloves?"

The woman leaned back against the wall, her eyes sharply fixed on the Que Feng in front of her.

Her name is Kamis.

He is the sect leader of the Rock Antelope Sect.

Although the Rock Antelope Sect is not among the Lower Three Sects, its overall strength is not much weaker than that of the Lower Four Sects. As the sect leader, Kamis also possesses the strength of Eight-Ring Soul Douluo.

In terms of strength, Kamis and Que Feng are both agility-based attackers, so they are evenly matched.

Do you even understand aesthetics?

"You Jungle Hillbilly, do you even know what aesthetics are?"

"You'll never understand my sense of aesthetics in your entire life."

The Que Feng took a few steps forward, tilted its head slightly, and gazed into Kamis's eyes.

"I'm naturally beautiful; I don't need any of those external things."

"But if I may be frank, your aesthetic sense with green eyeshadow is truly unique and peculiar."

Kamis stared directly into the eyes of the Que Feng, not to be outdone.

The two stared at each other, their expressions suggesting a direct confrontation.

Click~

The door to one of the rooms opened.

Wearing loose pajamas and carrying a plate of lychees, Bai Wanwan appeared at the door, watching Que Feng and Kamis with great interest.

Upon hearing the door open, Que Feng and Kamis turned their gazes toward Bai Wanwan almost simultaneously.

"Hmm~"

"You guys carry on, I just came out to watch the fun."

Bai Wanwan leaned against the door and tossed a peeled lychee into her mouth.

You have disturbed His Your Highness's rest.

The Que Feng gave Kamis a cold snort and quickly walked towards Bai Wanwan.

"Your Highness, I have just returned from the Blacksmith Association and have something to report to Your Highness."

With a smile, the Que Feng approached Bai Wanwan and reported everything that had happened in the Blacksmith Association. She then picked up the lychee pit that Bai Wanwan had spat out.

Seeing the Que Feng's eager manner, Kamis couldn't help but purse her lips.

"Heh~"

"Those who flatter and fawn will never gain His Your Highness's favor."

"The most important quality for a subordinate is loyalty, followed by ability."

Kamis silently grumbled to herself.

"Oh?"

"Does Lou Gao mean we should go and talk to him in person?"

Bai Wanwan popped another peeled lychee into her mouth, a thoughtful look appearing in her deep blue eyes.

"Your Highness, Que Feng is incompetent. He can't even handle such a small matter. How can he be the sect leader of the Lower Four Sects?"

"Given her abilities, I believe the Que Feng Sect is unfit to be one of the Lower Four Sects. Entrust this matter to me, and I guarantee I will complete it."

Kamis took a few steps forward, offering her volunteer service while giving Que Feng a defiant look.

Hmm~

If I had to sum it up in one sentence, it would be this: I, Kamis, have long wanted to cleave the Que Feng in two and seize the position of Lower Four Sects, placing it in the hands of the Rock Antelope Sect.

"Holy shit~"

"This Jungle Hillbilly is trying to steal my spot!"

The Que Feng glared angrily at Kamis beside her.

Kamis completely ignored the death stare from the Que Feng.

We've known each other for decades.

Who doesn't know whom?

Bai Wanwan didn't speak, but instead popped another lychee into her mouth, pondering something in her mind.

After a while.

The contemplation in Bai Wanwan's eyes disappeared, and her gaze returned to the Que Feng and Kamis in front of her.

"I'll go to the Blacksmith Association myself tomorrow."

"Tomorrow, you will accompany Zhu Zhuqing to stroll around Kangxin City and familiarize her with the surroundings."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Wanwan prepared to return to her room, but stopped after taking only two steps. "By the way, please be quiet. My sister and I don't like to be disturbed when we're resting."

Click~

The door closed again.

As Que Feng stared at the Kamis door, their gazes involuntarily drifted to each other.

The difference was that the Que Feng's eyes were filled with anger.

A hint of regret appeared in Kamis's eyes.

Hmm~

She was regretting that the matter of the Blacksmith Association had not been entrusted to her.

Inside the room.

Bai Wanwan sat on the edge of the bed, eating lychees while telling Qian Renxue about the Blacksmith Association.

"So you're planning to go to the Blacksmith Association yourself?"

Listening to Bai Wanwan's story, Qian Renxue asked softly.

"Hmm~"

"I'll take Little Xie to see it tomorrow."

Bai Wanwan picked up a lychee and began to peel it.

"Are you taking Little Xie with you?"

"That's fine too."

Qian Renxue nodded gently, then stood up and straddled Bai Wanwan's lap.

Watching Qian Renxue's actions, Bai Wanwan's eyes blinked a few times.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

Bai Wanwan asked, somewhat dazed.

"Hmm~"

Qian Renxue smiled and gave a soft "hmm".

Bai Wanwan's eyes fluttered gently.

Um?

What is my sister humming about?

As Bai Wanwan was thinking, her cheeks unconsciously flushed a light pink.

The next day.

Morning.

Bai Wanwan sat in front of the dressing mirror, simply tied her hair up, and then got up and left the room.

At the doorway of the room.

The Evil Emperor waited quietly.

After seeing Bai Wanwan come out of the room, he silently followed behind Bai Wanwan.

"Little Xie."

Bai Wanwan spoke, she lightly snapped her fingers.

"Clear."

The Evil Emperor, understanding perfectly, remained hidden in the shadows.

I left the hotel.

Bai Wanwan headed straight for the location of the Blacksmith Association.

Arriving at the entrance of the Blacksmith Association, Bai Wanwan looked up at the Blacksmith Association five-story building in front of her, with a hammer and chisel pattern on the iron plaque.

Join the Blacksmith Association.

After identifying herself, Bai Wanwan was led by a designated person to the top floor of the Blacksmith Association.

After climbing up the steps, Bai Wanwan had gained a general understanding of the Blacksmith Association.

The first floor of the Blacksmith Association is the general trading area.

The second floor is the rare metals trading area.

The third floor is the blacksmith rating area.

The fourth floor is the auction area.

The fifth floor houses the Lou Gao office area and the Divine Craftsman's forging area.

Finally, Bai Wanwan stopped at the Divine Craftsman Forging Area.

Even before entering the forging area, Bai Wanwan could already hear the clanging of metal coming from inside.

The gate opened.

Bai Wanwan stepped into the forging area.

Walking through the forging area, Bai Wanwan watched the figure standing in front of the forging furnace without disturbing him. Instead, she casually found a place to sit down and waited quietly.

Standing Lou Gao in front of the forging furnace, he glanced discreetly in Bai Wanwan's direction, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Bai Wanwan's reaction was completely different from what he had expected.

But soon, Lou Gao withdrew his gaze, as if unaware of Bai Wanwan's arrival, and continued forging.
