Chapter 288: Chapter 288 Challenge Letter (3)
An Yiqing looked amusedly at a shocked Zhang Yusheng and smiled mischievously, "Brother Yusheng, you must remember, I am someone who can create miracles."
Feeling helpless, Zhang Yusheng cradled his forehead, internally emotional. Indeed, how could he forget that the girl before him could create miracles and was always invincible in gambling on stones.
The two watched for a while longer when a commotion erupted from the entrance.
Looking over, they saw Guh Siqing, Guh Siqi, and Guh Ruoyao appearing at the entrance, followed by a man in black, expressionless.
An Yiqing narrowed her eyes slightly, a hint of coldness flickering in her gaze. The man was about one meter eighty, with an ordinary appearance and unremarkable features. He looked inconspicuous, but she knew that he must be a master beyond the Innate Realm.
At this Xuandu Jade Stone Conference, with various ancient martial families present, An Yiqing grew increasingly dissatisfied with her own strength and her desire for power grew stronger. If Gu Yelin hadn’t arrived in time yesterday, she would have likely been dead or severely injured.
Looking at the man behind Guh Siqing, An Yiqing thought of that Old Zhang from yesterday. She wondered if the Guh Family had discovered that he was already dead and gone to the Underworld.
"Miss, the people from the Guh family are coming over," Zhang Yusheng said in a low voice from behind An Yiqing.
An Yiqing nodded slightly without a word, watching calmly as Guh Siqing approached her.
"An Yiqing!"
Guh Siqing, looking noble and dignified, called out to the girl with a cold and lifted chin. The pretense of courtesy was gone, forgoing the term "Miss An" and addressing her by name outright.
An Yiqing was not annoyed; she smiled slightly and said softly, "Second Miss Guh, what can I do for you?"
The scions of two top-tier families faced each other, their characters and temperaments drawing a line between them.
Guh Siqing, feeling annoyed by the whispers of the people around her, clenched her hands resting on her abdomen and took a deep breath, arrogantly saying, "I challenge you to a duel! Do you dare to accept?"
The ears of people nearby stood on end as they eavesdropped on the two women’s conversation.
An Yiqing raised an eyebrow, visibly intrigued, "Please, elucidate."
The more Guh Siqing hated An Yiqing’s undisturbed demeanor, the more she wished she could tear the girl’s face to shreds. With a contemptuous glance at An Yiqing, she declared loudly, "Over the next two days, we will compete in gambling on stones! Whoever’s jade has the higher value wins! The title of First Miss of Xuandu City will belong to her!"
Upon these words, the eavesdropping crowd erupted into a buzz. The title of First Miss of Xuandu City represented supreme glory. Before An Yiqing appeared, Guh Siqing had always been known as the First Miss of Xuandu City due to her talent and abilities in gambling on stones. But since An Yiqing returned to the An family, indeed, some people felt her capabilities were more outstanding, even surpassing that of other prominent daughters of nobility.
It seemed that Guh Siqing was greatly provoked by yesterday’s events, to issue such a sweeping challenge today! Had she been driven mad by provocation, or did she have a surefire plan?
Upon this thought, everyone couldn’t help but recall a rumor about Guh Siqing. It was said that she had the ability to sense jade in raw stones, being able to detect whether there was jade hidden within any piece of rough stone.
If this was true, then An Yiqing was bound to lose without a doubt!
Thus, some people of sound principles looked down upon Guh Siqing, competing with ordinary people in her own area of expertise; just how thick-faced could she be?
However, whatever others thought, Guh Siqing didn’t care. In her heart, as long as she defeated An Yiqing, she would be able to trample her underfoot in the future!
