I, the villainous eldest prince, will suppress everything!

Watching Qin Li leave the room, Xiao Xue'er was both angry and scared!

She was furious that Qin Li treated her like a human being. If Qin Li continued to act like this, she would surely die in bed one day.

She hasn't changed; she's still the same Xiao Xue'er.

Her goal has never changed: to kill Qin Li and avenge herself.

But she knew that she couldn't kill Qin Li on her own.

Therefore, she learned to endure hardship and bide her time, and she learned to first use gentleness to lower Qin Li's guard against her.

Wait for the right moment, then strike a fatal blow!

However, the most important thing right now is to get through tonight; otherwise, nothing we say will make a difference.

Biting her lip, Xiao Xue'er hurriedly went to prepare, hoping that the storm tonight wouldn't be too fierce.

On the other side, after Qin Li left the house, he went directly to the library in the mansion.

Although it is called a library, it is actually a three-story pavilion built in the middle of the lake.

The library is a forbidden area of ​​the First Prince's residence; no one may approach it without Qin Li's permission.

Even the gatekeepers are all eighth-rank masters!

After quickly walking through the long corridor built on the lake, Qin Li entered the library and met an old man in a gray robe on the top floor.

The old man, named Snake Elder, was hunched over and ugly. He was one of the few grandmasters in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Grand Master of the First Prince's Mansion, and Qin Li's martial arts teacher.

"teacher!"

Qin Li came up behind him and bowed respectfully.

The old snake slowly turned around, his face cold and sinister, like a venomous snake.

But the next moment, he suddenly laughed, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, looking extremely lewd.

Looking Qin Li up and down, Snake Old Man said in a sly tone, "I didn't expect that I had misjudged you. The Yin-Yang Great Joy Technique is actually so suitable for you, Li'er. In just a few days, you have actually broken through and successfully entered the fifth rank of martial arts."

Qin Li's martial arts skills were taught by Snake Elder.

After all these years, Qin Li is only at the early stage of the fourth rank, which is only slightly stronger than an ordinary soldier.

He wouldn't even dare to say that Qin Li was his student when he went out; it would be too embarrassing!

Unexpectedly, Qin Li came to the library that day and picked out a dusty martial arts manual from a corner to practice.

In just a few days, he had become a fifth-rank expert, which was equivalent to his years of meticulous teaching.

The speed is undeniably fast!

"Teacher, stop saying these useless things."

Qin Li sat down opposite Elder Snake, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. "Has any news come back?"

After returning from the Wei residence yesterday, Qin Li asked Old Snake to send out experts from his residence to keep an eye on the Song residence's every move.

"Just a son-in-law."

"Is it worth you taking this so seriously, Li'er?"

Old Snake was puzzled, but still handed over a few sheets of paper, which were written by the experts in the mansion who were monitoring the Song family.

Qin Li took it and quickly scanned it. The first two pages, which he glanced at, were about the activities at the Song residence.

The next picture is about Fang Yuan.

Qin Li read it carefully, word by word.

After reading it, Qin Li nodded.

The records above were similar to those revealed to him by Song Qianxiu'er, the mistress and servant.

There was one thing the master and servant didn't mention, which meant they probably didn't know it at all.

The experts within the manor discovered that Fang Yuan, ostensibly a son-in-law of the Song family, was actually the leader of the assassin organization Tianyi Tower, with countless skilled men under his command.

"hiss!"

Qin Li couldn't help but gasp. "Just as I expected, we can't act rashly against Song Qian, this businesswoman. Otherwise, we won't even know how we died."

Anyone who dares to touch the protagonist's harem will face his wrath, no matter where he goes.

Wei Hongying is an exception, because Qin Feng is no longer a threat.

What Qin Li needs to do now is to turn Song Qian into a second Wei Hongying.

Snake Elder glanced at it, then stroked his chin. "Tianyi Tower is nothing. At most, it's a third-rate assassin organization. I could wipe them out with one hand."

Upon hearing this, Qin Li quickly reached out and grasped the Snake Elder's hands, earnestly persuading him, "Teacher, please grant Li'er a request."

"Don't cause trouble for Tianyilou without my permission, okay?"

Why?

The old snake looked puzzled.

There is no reason why.

The question is, is Fang Yuan the main character?

Don't be fooled by the fact that the snake is always a master with few rivals; it has a good chance of being defeated by the protagonist.

Based on his experience as a bookworm for ten years, it's commonplace for the protagonist to challenge opponents of higher levels; it's a piece of cake.

He only has one grandmaster-level expert in his mansion, Snake Elder, and Qin Li doesn't want to be defeated by Fang Yuan.

Otherwise, you'll have nowhere to cry when the time comes.

"Teacher, don't ask so many questions, just trust me and that's all."

"In short, Tianyi Building is not moving for now!"

"Please, Li'er, beg you."

Qin Li almost knelt down after grasping the old snake's hand.

Old Snake had no choice but to nod in agreement, having no other option but to do so.

Besides, he was too lazy to cause trouble for Tianyi Tower.

He's a grandmaster, yet he bullies a bunch of juniors. If word gets out, he'll be a laughingstock.

After agreeing, Old Snake couldn't wait to pull out several martial arts manuals from under the table.

"Li'er, these past few days, I have deeply reflected on myself. The secret manuals I forced you to practice in the past may not be suitable for you at all, which is why your cultivation level has stagnated and you have wasted so many years."

"Therefore, based on your characteristics, I have carefully selected a few more books for you. Take a look and see which one you like."

Qin Li looked over.

The Blood Spirit Netherworld Technique: It absorbs living souls, refines corpses, and gathers thousands of resentful ghosts to form a Netherworld army formation. Those caught in the formation lose their minds and commit suicide in fear.

"Heavenly Silkworm Demon Art": It cultivates Heavenly Silkworm Gu with one's own flesh and blood, and through specific incantations and mental techniques, it can control others, turning them into Heavenly Silkworm puppets who can be manipulated at will.

Corpse Soul Technique: Using flesh and blood as a medium, through continuous devouring and fusion, the cultivator's physical body is constantly strengthened, eventually becoming invulnerable to blades and spears, with bones of steel.

"Corroding Bone Poison Palm": The palm strike is cold and yin, specifically designed to corrode bones. Those struck by the palm appear outwardly normal, but their internal energy turns their bones into pus.

……

"Well!"

Looking at the martial arts manuals that Old Snake had carefully selected for him.

Qin Li couldn't help but sigh, "Does Old Snake really understand him?"

Why does this villain have to practice these martial arts?

Are there no normal martial arts manuals?

These books are all evil martial arts, each one more sinister than the last!

If he really practices these books, Qin Li will probably be labeled a great demon by the righteous sects in the martial arts world, and everyone will want to kill him!

Without making a sound, Qin Li politely declined the martial arts manuals, saying, "I appreciate your kindness, teacher."

"Li'er has her own choices."

"Oh?"

Old Snake immediately became interested. "Li'er has already made his choice? Which martial arts manual is it? Let me help you choose, so you don't go astray!"

puff!

Qin Li almost spat out his tea.

Don't you feel embarrassed saying that?

Look at these books you picked out yourself, which one isn't a crooked and heretical doctrine?

In the entire library, there were no books more crooked than these.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Li calmed himself down and casually picked up a book from the bookshelf next to him.

Qin Li had his eye on this book the last time he came, but he didn't take it.

"Here it is."

Qin Li nodded and handed it over.

Snake Elder reached out and took it; the cover prominently displayed the three large characters "Blood Eye Technique".

When a cultivator uses their pupil technique, their eyes glow with a blood-red hue, allowing them to see through all illusions and obscurities, discern the true nature of things, and also briefly bewilder and manipulate others' minds, turning them into puppets.
