Chen Changqing felt a slight tightness in his heart. What did the former head of the Zhao Clan's Enforcement Hall want from him?

Could it be that Wang Yuyao and Wang Yuyuan's affair has been exposed?

As Zhao Qingyao's disciple, and Zhao Qingtian's older brother, even if things come to light, there might still be room for maneuver.

No, if this happens, the person coming to him will probably not be the former head of the Enforcement Hall, but the current head.

Xiao Hei also felt the terrifying pressure from Zhao Qingtian and the Blood-Eyed Demon Sable, but instead of retreating, it came to Chen Changqing and stared intently at Zhao Qingtian.

Zhao Qingtian stood in front of Chen Changqing's courtyard gate and said gently, "Hello, Chen Changqing."

Chen Changqing bowed respectfully, a warm smile on his face: "Senior Uncle, my dear Senior Uncle, what brings you here?"

Zhao Qingtian asked with a smile, "Won't you invite me to sit in the yard first?"

Chen Changqing hurriedly greeted him warmly, "Dear Uncle-Master, please come in, please come in."

He then instructed Fang Rongrong: "Rongrong, pour tea for my senior uncle, and pour him my best spiritual tea."

Zhao Qingtian walked into the courtyard and looked at Chen Changqing: "I have something to talk to you about. Let's go to the quiet room to talk."

"Come, the quiet room is this way." Chen Changqing respectfully invited Zhao Qingtian and led him to the quiet room.

Zhao Qingtian walked into the courtyard and carefully examined the little black tiger: "Your black tiger is growing quite fast."

Black Tiger's growth rate is indeed very fast. With the support of Chen Changqing's abundant resources and the blessing of the Soul-Devouring Creation Black Lotus, it broke through to the fourth level of Lesser Demon late the night before last.

This also raised Chen Changqing's spiritual power cultivation to the peak of the second level of Qi Refining.

In addition to the improvement in spiritual power, the little black tiger's physical strength and speed also improved even faster.

Chen Changqing bowed respectfully: "Thank you for your kind words, Senior Uncle."

Zhao Qingtian continued to scrutinize the little black tiger, exclaiming, "Especially those pupils, there's a hint of ghostly light. It seems it has awakened a bit of the Shadow Demon Tiger bloodline. No wonder it was able to kill Wang Yuyuan and Wang Yuyao."

Upon hearing this, Chen Changqing's body stiffened slightly, and a storm of emotions surged within him. However, he did not show any panic on his face. Instead, he smiled awkwardly and said, "My dear senior uncle, you've gone too far with this joke."

Zhao Qingtian turned around, looked at Chen Changqing, and said calmly, "You've done things quite discreetly, but you still don't understand the power of some spirit beasts. Take my Blood-Eyed Ghost Weasel, for example; its sense of smell far surpasses that of ordinary spirit beasts."

As soon as we arrived in the dense forest near Weizi Town, my little devil sable smelled the scents of Wang Yuyao, the Crimson Flame Spirit Wolf, and you.

One night a little over ten days ago, I had just arrived at your little courtyard when my Blood-Eyed Demon Weasel detected Wang Yuyuan's presence.

"My dear senior master, you really know how to joke." Chen Changqing shook his head with a wry smile, showing no sign of anything unusual on his face.

But I was extremely surprised. Everything the other party said was true, which meant...

Zhao Qingtian's Blood-Eyed Demon Sable can indeed smell the faint scent remaining in the air.

But he didn't know what Zhao Qingtian was going to do.

Regardless of the circumstances, I absolutely refuse to admit to killing Wang Yuyao and her brother Wang Yuyuan.

Seeing that Chen Changqing refused to admit it, Zhao Qingtian chuckled and said, "That's right. If others discover any clues in the future, they will also give the same answer, insisting that they didn't know anything."

Chen Changqing didn't reply. He figured that if he didn't understand the other party's purpose, he should just deny it.

Zhao Qingtian sat on the stool where Chen Changqing was drawing talismans, looking at Chen Changqing: "You don't need to be nervous, I mean you no harm, I haven't told anyone about this."

They didn't even tell your brother-in-law, and they even helped you erase the traces of the scene where you killed Wang Yuyao.

"Just over ten days ago, I came to your courtyard last night and wiped away all traces of Wang Yuyuan."

Zhao Qingtian tossed a small bottle to Chen Changqing: "After you kill someone, remember to sprinkle this Traceless Elimination Powder around the area immediately. It can completely eliminate your scent."

"Thank you, Senior Uncle." Chen Changqing quickly took the small bottle, then asked curiously, "Senior Uncle, what brings you here today?"

Zhao Qingtian knew about his killing of Wang Yuyao and Wang Yuyuan, but he didn't tell anyone and instead helped him cover it up.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

He believes that there is no such thing as good without a reason.

"Yes." Zhao Qingtian nodded and looked at Chen Changqing: "Do you still remember Wang Yuyan, who was flirting with you?"

These words made Chen Changqing a little embarrassed.

However, Wang Yuyan did remember.

She was an extremely beautiful young widow, and also the youngest daughter of the county magistrate of Dayang County.

It is said that on her wedding day, right after she and her husband completed the wedding ceremony, her husband was slapped to death by her maternal grandfather.

After returning from the job of a servant in the Immortal Spirit Cave, the original owner started flirting with the other party.

Later, the original body took the other person's little bellyband.

Someone saw it and started spreading rumors that he had stolen the county magistrate's youngest daughter's bib.

These words reached the ears of Magistrate Wang.

This infuriated Magistrate Wang, who was determined to teach Chen Changqing a lesson.

Chen Changqing's sister quickly beat up her predecessor and rushed to Qingshi Town.

He then took his brother-in-law to apologize to Magistrate Wang, and only then was the matter considered closed.

Chen Changqing looked at Zhao Qingtian: "Yu Yan, is that you?"

Zhao Qingtian sighed softly: "Yu Yan is my granddaughter. The day before Yu Yan's wedding, a man came to me crying and said that Yu Yan's fiancé, Guo Lihui, had raped his daughter and then killed her."

Zhao Qingtian said, "I was very angry. I went to investigate with Ling Diao and found that the beast had indeed done such a thing. I was furious and rushed back to the wedding site. I slapped the beast to death with one hand."

Zhao Qingtian had only one daughter in his life, who died young, leaving behind a granddaughter named Yuyan.

After returning to Dayang County, Chen Changqing began having an affair with his granddaughter.

A lot of rumors have been circulating.

His granddaughter even wanted to marry Chen Changqing.

But Yu Yan's father, of course, would not agree.

Later, Yu Yan approached him, hoping he could persuade her father, but he looked down on Chen Changqing, a scoundrel who used his good looks and sweet talk to seduce married women, and naturally refused.

Later, Chen Changqing left Dayang County and went to Qingshi Town.

That's the end of that for now.

Some time ago, he saw Chen Changqing again at Chen Changqing's apprenticeship banquet and found that Chen Changqing had gone to Qingshi Town for a while and had changed a lot.

Then, about two weeks ago, his attempt to break through failed, and Yu Yan stayed by his side to take care of him.

He knew his days were numbered, but his only worry was his granddaughter.

He was thinking that before he died, he would settle the other person's lifelong affairs and entrust them to a good person.

He asked Yu Yan, and Yu Yan said she still wanted to be with Chen Changqing.

The next day, Zhao Jingming came to find him and discovered that Chen Changqing had killed Wang Yuyao.

Afterwards, he conducted a detailed investigation into Chen Changqing.

I've noticed that Chen Changqing has indeed matured recently and has learned to work hard.

Every day is spent either training or drawing talismans.

He no longer flirts with women everywhere like he used to.

This greatly changed his impression of Chen Changqing.

To get to know Chen Changqing better, he followed him for a while longer and discovered that Chen Changqing had really changed.

They work very hard and are very serious.

Moreover, that little black tiger was quite extraordinary.

Chen Changqing has every opportunity to achieve what he has now in the future.

He is perfectly worthy of his granddaughter.

They could be considered a decent match, if not perfect.

Chen Changqing chuckled awkwardly, "So you're your granddaughter."

Zhao Qingtian looked at Chen Changqing and asked again, "Is Wang Yuyan pretty?"

Chen Changqing thought for a moment. The other person was only nineteen years old and quite beautiful, like Liu Yifei's version of Wang Yuyan. She was ethereal and fairy-like.

She is not only beautiful, but also a rich woman.

His original plan was to marry a rich woman.

However, Magistrate Wang disagreed.

Moreover, after news spread that he had stolen the other party's undergarment, Magistrate Wang was even prepared to beat him to death.

"Yes, it looks good." Chen Changqing nodded.

Zhao Qingtian cut to the chase: "Yu Yan has feelings for you. She told me the day before yesterday that she wanted to be with you. She said she'd have your sister find a matchmaker to propose marriage to Magistrate Wang."

Given Wang Yuyan's status, position, and appearance, there was absolutely no need for him to come and propose marriage.

But he still had a year to live, and he hoped to settle Yu Yan's affairs before he died.

The key point is that, upon closer inspection of the younger generation in Dayang County, there is truly no one who is a good match for Yu Yan.

Chen Changqing is now, by a narrow margin, a decent match.

Chen Changqing rubbed his hands together; "But... things haven't been peaceful lately, people keep disappearing, and I already have a concubine, Fang Rongrong."

He only wants to cultivate immortality now and has no intention of getting married.

Even when you're lonely, there's Fang Rongrong.

Having used Fang Rongrong for so long, Chen Changqing was preparing to give her the status of a concubine.

Moreover, getting married is a major life event, and it cannot be decided hastily.

But upon closer inspection, the other party was the daughter of Wang, the county magistrate of the Wang clan.

If he were to marry her, he and the Wang clan of immortals would become in-laws.

In the future, when the Zhao Immortal Clan loses power and the Wang Immortal Clan rises, they will have a powerful backer to rely on.

Having lived two lives, Chen Changqing has experienced too many harsh realities of society, making him very pragmatic and disbelieving in love and romance.

If marrying her is advantageous, and she's beautiful and has feelings for him, then he should marry her.

Zhao Qingtian looked at Chen Changqing: "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Besides, which man doesn't have multiple wives and concubines? Just be good to Yuyan."

In this world, it's perfectly normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines; what powerful figure doesn't have multiple wives and concubines?

He was an exception, having only one wife.

But he also felt that having multiple wives and concubines was normal.

"Yes, I'll have my sister find a matchmaker tomorrow to propose marriage at Magistrate Wang's residence," Chen Changqing said.

"Hmm." Zhao Qingtian nodded in satisfaction, then said, "I'll help you dispose of the small sword and armor you buried in Sanhe Town, turn them into cash, and buy a decent house in Dayang County. We'll also prepare a respectable dowry, and the wedding will be grand and magnificent."

After Zhao Qingtian finished speaking, he paused slightly and looked at Chen Changqing: "Don't be reluctant. My granddaughter won't take advantage of you like this. I will give her a generous dowry."

Chen Changqing was embarrassed: "You know about the small sword and the battle armor?"

Zhao Qingtian instructed, "Remember to prepare more Traceless Breath-Clearing Powder in the future."

After saying that, Zhao Qingtian patted his storage bag and took out a small sword and armor.

It was the small sword and armor that Chen Changqing had buried in the back mountain of Sanhe Town.

After finishing his business, Zhao Qingtian chatted with Chen Changqing for a while before getting up and leaving.

Chen Changqing tried to persuade him to stay, but the other party told him to prepare as soon as possible.

After Zhao Qingtian left, Chen Changqing rubbed Black Tiger's head: "Little Black, don't you think this was a bit hasty?"

"Awoo..." Little Black gestured.

It means, let's just forget about it and wait for her to transform into human form in the future.

Or get her a transformation herb, and she can become Chen Changqing's wife.

Chen Changqing felt a chill and kicked Black Tiger in the butt: "Get out of here."

"Awoo..." The little black tiger seemed very dissatisfied and walked away grumbling.

Why can't she do it?

She's a real tigress, you know.

Wouldn't the fox spirit who transformed into Wang Qiaoqiao be incredibly beautiful?

The owner's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

When she transforms into human form in the future.

I must become extremely beautiful.

She's even prettier than Wang Qiaoqiao.

Humph.

Let's see if the owner can still control himself.
