Chapter 2160: Fury (2/2)
She glared at Shuwei and continued: “Since Young Lord Peng was killed, the Peng will naturally try and avenge him. Using the military improperly here will only make a fool out of yourself.”
Shuwei didn’t know what to do. The people he brought here were part of his private army - members from the Chen. However, they were under the banner of the court right now so he couldn’t quite refute her scolding.
Meanwhile, Li Qiye, the star of the show, has been doing the same thing - drinking and letting Sijing feed him.
Shengping was standing behind Li Qiye with his head lowered. He didn’t dare to breathe loudly. This was a conflict between the big shots of the court. A small character like him had no room to speak up here.
Qingling finally looked over at Li Qiye and found no clues despite a careful inspection. She snorted after seeing his enviable state.
“A storm is brewing so stay out of trouble!” She uttered.
Even a fool could tell that this was a warning towards Li Qiye. Everyone wanted to see how this ridiculous fella would react.
Shuwei and Zhijie were interested as well with a smirk on their face. They couldn’t handle this brat but Qingling should be able to!
Li Qiye finally looked up and met her eyes. He smiled and said: “Little girl, no need to act cool before me, come, pour me a drink.”
Gasps could be heard across the inn. Everyone was slack-jawed, thinking that they have misheard. It was one thing for him to be arrogant towards Shuwei and Zhijie, but telling Qingling to pour him a drink was too much.
Just think about it, no one in the entire system would dare to make this demand. If she were to become a True Emperor in the future, everyone would need to look up at her in the future.
But now, this fella went against all logic and reasons. This was domineering and ignorant at the same time. No words could describe his insanity.
“No need to be angry.” Li Qiye finished chewing a piece of beef then said: “Being able to pour wine for me is a type of blessing that others could only pray for, unable to get. Come.”
“Is he crazy?” An elder murmured. Only a madman would say something like this.
Chu Qingling was naturally furious with her eyes becoming stern and sharp like a blade. She was here to actually help him yet not only did this brat not thank her but even acted so unreasonable and shamelessly. This was a challenge to her prestige - she wanted nothing more than to break his teeth right now.
“Boom!” True energy surged around her. The fiery sparks horrified everyone here.
People knew that this was the storm - Li Qiye had enraged Chu Qingling!
They were smart enough to start retreating, realizing that once Chu Qingling attack, everyone would be implicated into this mess. They didn’t want to be close to this mess since they weren’t suicidal.
As the number one genius of the system, she was qualified to be arrogant. Rumor has it that she was already a True Saint, or even perhaps taking the first step into the True Saint realm.
