Strongest Eccentric Consort - Chapter 472
Chapter 472: The Legendary Jade-Masked Blast?
“Shaoning, no matter what you say, I won’t change my mind. Have a good rest. I’m leaving,” As the An family head was about to leave…
“Uncle, what if I say that I have a way to treat cousin Crown Prince’s illness?” An Shaoning loudly shouted in a hoarse voice.
“…” The An family head froze in his tracks for a while. He then suddenly turned around. “What did you say?”
“Uncle, I have a friend who’s extremely skilled in alchemy. She’s as good as Gong Sunheng. Didn’t you originally want to look for Gong Sunheng to treat cousin Crown Prince’s illness? However, Gong Sunheng is on the same side as Third Prince. It’s simply impossible for him to help us. We can only look for another way and that friend of mine—”
“Who are you referring to?” The An family head hurriedly interrupted him.
“She’s called Lou Qianxue. Gong Sunheng used to admire her alchemy skills. Even the fourth-grade alchemist in Fengyang prefecture, Master Huo, lost to her in alchemy!”
“Lou Qianxue? Why haven’t I heard of her? I did recently hear that in the Lingxi prefecture, a very impressive alchemist Jade-Masked Blast appeared, and that she belongs to the Extraterritorial! Moreover, she seemed to be the master of your friend, Ye Zhuixun.”
“Ye Zhuixun’s Master?” An Shaoning paused. He suddenly opened his eyes wide! Isn’t Lou Qianxue Ye Zhuixun’s master?
“If…” The An family head hesitatingly looked at An Shaoning. “If you’re willing to invite Ye Zhuixun’s master to look at the Crown Prince’s illness, I can let you out today.”
“I’m willing!” An Shaoning immediately said. “Uncle, I’m willing! I’ll write a letter to Ye Zhuixun now and beg his master to help!”
The An family head bit his teeth. “Alright. But Shaoning, I really don’t wish to send you to your death.”
An Shaoning’s eyes brightly shone. He said with an uplifted mood, “Uncle, believe me! If you let me go out today and if I can make it in time, Jade-Masked Blast will definitely save cousin Crown Prince!”
“Huh? Are you serious? Could it be that Lou Xiaoxiao is related to Jade-Masked Blast?”
“If I’ve guessed right, both of them are the closest person to each other in this world.”
“… Alright, I trust you this time. Go.”
An Shaoning ecstatically rushed out of the bed. With his hands in front of him, he bowed to the An family head. “Thank you, Uncle. As for my father, I’ll have to trouble you.”
Then, he hurriedly ran out…
“This rascal…” The An family head looked at An Shaoning’s back, sighed, and shook his head. “It’s good to be young.”

Lou Qianxue rode her horse and galloped all the way. On the fourth day of her departure, she finally reached the Imperial city.
“Xu!” When she reached the city entrance, she pulled the horse’s reins and jumped off. Following the crowd, she then entered the Imperial city.
“This city is indeed the biggest and the most prosperous prefectural city in Tian Zhao. Even the prosperous Fengyang prefecture can’t compare to it.” Lou Qianxue was in a good mood. As she walked along the road, she looked at the sights with a calm gaze.
“I can see Sister Xiaoxiao and the others soon. It’s really great.”
She suddenly stopped walking, lowered her head, and looked at her own clothes. “The long journey wore me out. I look untidy. If I were to visit them like this, I may bring mockery to Sister Xiaoxiao. Why don’t I change into new clothes?”
As Lou Qianxue thought about it, she held her dragon horse and headed toward an inn.
Along the way, many people’s gazes drifted toward her until she went far away.
After that, someone softly said, “Don’t you think that the woman who was holding the dragon horse and has a mask looks like the legendary Jade-Masked Blast?”
“Jade-Masked Blast? That Jade-Masked Blast who appeared in Lingxi Prefecture. Who defeated the second elder of the Xu family in an alchemy battle, ensuring humiliation and death for him. Who created a chaos at the Alchemy Union! Who even swept through the Life-or-death battle stage and climbed to the 52nd position of the list of outstanding people in this world?”
