Chapter 2064: Magnificent Counterattack (12)
As Su Luo looked at the doors that were about to close, she gave a displeased glance at the woman. “Apologies!”
Then she pulled Big Sister Wei, wanting to rush inside.
However, the woman actually took action directly!
Her pair of hands, which seemed to possess an incomparably formidable strength, were like an eagle's claws as they reached out to grab Su Luo's neck!
If Su Luo were to be caught by those claws, her neck would probably snap.
Right at this critical moment, Su Luo's figure ducked down and avoided the woman's hands. Simultaneously, Big Sister Wei swung down ferociously at the middle-aged woman!
As the Chief Guardian of the Tower of Trials, the middle-aged woman was normally flattered and fawned upon by others. Had she ever been hit in the face like she was today? Immediately, her face went ashen with fury!
“Stop.”
Right at this moment, a quiet and cold white figure descended slowly.
Just the sight of him dressed in soft white robes, seemingly extraordinarily eminent, n.o.ble, and distinctly splendid, which gave others an intense feeling of being oppressed.
The man nodded towards the middle-aged woman, who unexpectedly lowered her gaze quickly and took a step back.
Su Luo looked at Luo Yichen curiously with feelings of doubt. To think that he was this powerful? That he could make the woman who was like Abbess Miejue immediately change her att.i.tude so dramatically and take the initiative to withdraw, even adopting a deferential and humble appearance?
Right when Su Luo was curiously sizing up Luo Yichen, Luo Yichen tilted his head and swept a glance over Su Luo.
With this glance, a pure and cold expression flashed across the depths of his eyes. His dark eyes were like smudges of ink enveloped in a faint halo, so deep and bottomless and yet able to arouse a rush of excitement in others.
Su Luo coughed quietly and gave a small smile as she greeted, “Senior Brother Luo.”
Luo Yichen watched Su Luo intently. An intense bright light appeared in his eyes as he seriously and solemnly stiffened his expression. “Still not hurrying inside?”
Oh? He's actually behaving rather like a senior brother. Su Luo criticized him silently in her heart. She rubbed her nose embarra.s.singly and turned around, wanting to go inside obediently. However, before she even took a step forward, she was stopped by Abbess Miejue.
“Wait a moment…” Although Abbess Miejue's att.i.tude was now gentle, she was still not letting them through.
Su Luo grinned as she looked at Abbess Miejue. “What is it? Still not letting us through?”
Now that Su Luo had her Senior Brother Luo to depend on for protection, she naturally began to act more boldly . She wasn't even a little bit afraid that Abbess Miejue would deliberately make things difficult for her.
“This young lady, you want to enter the exam, but have you registered yet?” Abbess Miejue smiled neither unhappily nor happily. She gazed at Su Luo with a cold light flas.h.i.+ng past her eyes.
“Registered?” A huge question mark seemed to appear on her forehead as her mind immediately stopped running.
Could it be that it wasn't enough simply to come over and partic.i.p.ate? She still had to register her name?
Seeing Su Luo's vacant expression, Abbess Miejue smiled insincerely and let out a cold laugh. She raised her chin arrogantly, the corners of her mouth hooked up into a taunting and mocking sneer.
Luo Yichen's brilliant eyes gazed at Su Luo deeply and then seemed to breathe in just as deeply. It was only after doing so that the dark depths of his eyes seemed to fade away, replaced with a helpless expression. He asked Su Luo, “You really didn't register?”
Su Luo's expression showed that she had been unprepared. Register? No one had told her she had to register!
Luo Yichen looked at the elegant and incomparably gorgeous woman before him and shook his head, seemingly with no other choice but to sigh.
“If you haven't registered, you cannot enter!” Abbess Miejue sneered mockingly. Then she immediately glanced at Luo Yichen and changed to a respectful and humble tone as she said, “Master Luo, you're the most familiar with the rules. You won't make things difficult for your juniors, right?”
Seeing Abbess Miejue stick her nose up toward the sky, Su Luo became angry! However, she truly did not have a registration form… Looking at the Tower of Trials' doors that were about to close, the expression in her eyes deepened.
