Chapter 68: Full of Lies 1

Seeing this, Yu Xian'er couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth upward. You damned little bitch, you'd better not be able to produce it, for then I will gladly watch your "graceful" end, haha!

However, Luo Qingyao showed no fear. Hearing their words, she turned solemn and said, "Since that is the case, I will tell you the truth. In fact, the *Lingbo Weibu* is placed within a grand formation, and I cannot take it out myself either!"

"What is that supposed to mean? Are you toying with us?"

"Wretched girl, have you truly grown tired of living?"

"Step aside, all of you, let me teach this bitch a lesson first!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd could not help cursing out loud, and several made moves to attack Luo Qingyao.

Seeing this, Yu Xian'er became even more delighted. With a sudden flash, she flew onto the back of Lan Ruoshui's green dragon, standing side by side with her to enjoy the incoming spectacle.

Luo Qingyao frowned and shouted loudly at the crowd, "What are you howling about? If you want the manual, why are you so impatient! Now I declare that anyone who yells at the top of their lungs before I finish speaking will be stripped of their right to possess the *Lingbo Weibu*!"

Hearing this, the crowd, previously as noisy as a marketplace, instantly fell silent. Not a single person dared to utter another word.

Stripping someone of the right to possess the *Lingbo Weibu* was something Luo Qingyao could not accomplish alone, but if she incited the others present to attack, it could certainly be done.

Therefore, no matter how much dissatisfaction many harbored toward Luo Qingyao's shout, they could only curse inwardly, not daring to show it on the outside.

Meanwhile, Yu Xian'er and Lan Ruoshui, who had been watching the show all along, were boiling with rage inside. They cursed Luo Qingyao repeatedly in their hearts as a bitch who actually dared to reprimand these people present!

One had to know that many among the crowd were figures even they had to treat with three parts courtesy, or even approach with utmost respect. Yet Luo Qingyao could scold them so casually, just as if she were disciplining servants. Consequently, the two women, accustomed to being high above and enjoying boundless glory, felt deeply displeased. They believed that such authority and behavior belonged only to them. What right did this good-for-nothing have to act this way?

Their jealousy and hatred toward Luo Qingyao grew even more intense.

However, Luo Qingyao did not care. As if sensing and seeing nothing at all, she continued, "I presume Fairy Yu has already told you that the *Lingbo Weibu* is divided into three realms in total, and I have only mastered a superficial trace of it. Just think about it—if the manual were in my hands, how could my learning be so shallow? I would definitely have practiced bitterly until I reached the highest realm! The reason is simply that the item is not in my possession, but locked inside a formation."

"If that is so, then how did you manage to learn even a superficial glimpse of the *Lingbo Weibu*?" Hearing Luo Qingyao's story, which was full of loopholes, Yu Xian'er could not help but question her.

"That's right, that's right, Fairy Yu is right! Little girl, if you want us to believe you, you'd better give a genuine reason, otherwise, hmph!" Instigated by Yu Xian'er, a few hot-tempered individuals fell for it once again.

Luo Qingyao ignored them and continued, "That is because when I was young, I met someone who said my physical frame was exceptionally gifted, my intelligence extraordinary, and that I was supremely suited for martial arts, so he took me as his disciple.

After becoming his disciple, I followed him and learned a superficial bit of the *Lingbo Weibu*. Later, he had to leave on urgent business and wanted to hand the manual over to me. Knowing how precious the manual truly was, and that if my strength were not great enough, carrying it with me would only invite disaster."
