Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Chapter 766: She Taught Him Well

The moment Su Huiqing appeared, almost everyone looked at her.

Not only because of Dugu Shuang’s words… but also because of that competition a year ago. Su Huiqing was steadily crushed by Dugu Shuang. Ever since she chose that piece of wasteland in the north, almost everyone knew that she was regretful.

The first elder saw Su Huiqing walking over and immediately said, “Miss Su, what do you think of the new batch of guards?”

He thought that it was better for a bunch of guards to lose face than their master.

Su Huiqing just nodded casually. “Alright, they go first.” Her tone was not particularly concerned.

Xiao Ba and the rest entered with Dugu Shuang’s men.

In a big family, there was always something. Dugu Shuang was answering an elder’s question. “Yes, I have indeed reached the fifth level. I should be close to the sixth level. It’s mainly because of Miss Fu Meng’s potion. You know that Fu Meng and I are friends. She is now a high-level potion maker. She is much stronger than me.”

“Fifth level?” The other people from the Dugu Family, who were initially watching, froze when they heard this.

Dugu Shuang went all-out. Although they knew that many resources were on her island, she was going to reach the sixth level so soon. It had only been a year. From the fourth level to the sixth level…

This speed was truly terrifying.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Dugu Shuang strangely. They even looked at her with respect. Unlike before, they were afraid of her identity or talent. Dugu Shuang now really had the strength to receive their respect.

In the Dugu Family, the sixth level was also an elder-level figure.

However, these old fellows were also smart. They knew that there was still Su Huiqing at the scene. Although they didn’t act too overboard, their attitudes towards the two of them were clearly different.

Dugu Shuang glanced at Su Huiqing. Seeing that the other didn’t react, she couldn’t help but laugh.

At this moment, Scarface and the rest came out first. The elder, who followed the test, had a satisfied expression. “Miss Shuang’er has taught them well. Their strength has improved, especially him.” The elder pointed at Scarface. “He actually has strength close to the fourth level. He can already compare to the commander of the guards. He’s worth being proud of.”

Dugu Shuang raised her chin and smiled mysteriously.

Scarface continued, “Missy treats us very well. She gives us a bottle of intermediate-level potion every month. Otherwise, how could we have advanced so quickly? It’s all thanks to Missy.”

With that, he looked very proud.

Fourth level. One had to know that this was a height that even the young disciples of the Dugu Family could hardly reach. This level was enough to be an outer sect disciple. How could he not be proud?

He was even rejoicing over his decision back then. If he hadn’t chosen Dugu Shuang, he might have been as useless as Xiao Ba and the rest.

Thinking up to this point, he looked at Su Huiqing and said, “Miss Su, I remember that Xiao Ba, Old Fifth, and the rest went to that huge piece of land with you back then. However, you guys didn’t come back for the annual meeting last year. I wonder how they were doing there. They must be at the fourth level, right?”

Everyone fell silent again. The elder in charge of the test couldn’t help but frown. “Alright, stop talking.”

Although Scarface didn’t say it out loud, everyone present was smart. Almost everyone could hear the mockery in his voice.

Fourth level? Who could still reach the fourth level after staying in a godforsaken place for a year? Didn’t they see that Su Huiqing didn’t dare to come back last year?
