The strongest warrior of the Great Qian Dynasty

They ignored how Miss Song would deal with the two servants.

Li Qingshan has more pressing matters to attend to now.

"According to this Miss Song, everyone is now searching for my whereabouts, so the protection inside the Marquis's mansion should be greatly reduced, and even that old eunuch, Lord Zhang, may leave the treasury."

They might even be lying in ambush nearby, hoping to capture me completely and then force me to reveal information about the Nine-Turn White Deer Ginseng.

More and more ideas flashed through Li Qingshan's mind, prompting him to try to organize the many things into a single line.

You have to understand that he is now walking a tightrope. If he makes a mistake, he could be ruined or even die.

"So now I should draw the chariot, General."

As Li Qingshan walked along the road, watching the leaves fall, a golden light suddenly appeared in his eyes.

From various clues, he found the one that suited him best and was the easiest to solve his current problem.

Obtain the fragments of the Nine Yang Sword.

"Qianqian, are you sure that obtaining this fragment will enhance my strength?"

Just to be on the safe side, Li Qingshan decided to ask Qianqian again, fearing that his assumptions might differ greatly from reality.

"Master, rest assured, as long as you obtain this fragment and merge with me, I will be able to enable you to unleash power comparable to the early stage of a Grandmaster."

"And the vital energy within your body is inexhaustible, coupled with the support of the medicine, enough to sustain you for half a cup of tea."

The time it takes to drink half a cup of tea may sound short, but in reality, it is remarkably effective.

"Alright, let's take the risk. Go to the Marquis of Changning's residence as soon as possible and see if that old eunuch is still lurking around."

After a moment's thought, Li Qingshan gave him the order.

He then began his journey back to his residence, preparing to see the young lady once more.

"Now is the time for me to significantly improve my cultivation."

As cries of alarm rang out from Li Qingshan's residence, another fierce and exhilarating battle began.

Miss Xiao Ruoxue was stunned at first, then fiercely countered, her whole body like a small boat caught in a storm, about to be completely swallowed by the sea.

……

The Changning Marquis's Residence.

The young lady's villa.

Qiu Meier frowned as she looked at the unconscious "young lady" in front of her, her doubts undisguised.

"Strange! Why did my Bloodstained Technique cause this girl to fall into a deep sleep? Could it be that my skill has improved even further?"

Despite her confusion, Qiu Meier waved her hand, waking him up.

"Greetings, Holy Maiden!"

Xiao Tao's voice came from beneath the young lady's skin.

That's right, this fake young lady was actually Xiao Ruoxue's maid in disguise, which is why her behavior was so similar to the young lady's, allowing her to deceive everyone.

Moreover, Xiao Tao never leaves this place on ordinary days, so it's really hard for people to understand why there is another young lady in Tiantong Academy.

Furthermore, the situation is becoming increasingly unpredictable, and even the Marquis of Changning's residence doesn't have much time to investigate. Moreover, this young lady is known for her dissolute lifestyle, and many people are unwilling to let her return.

"What changes occurred during the time I was away?"

Qiu Meier lay on her side on the bed, her fingertips tracing her side leg, and asked softly.

Despite witnessing such a sensual scene, Xiao Tao's face remained expressionless, still bearing that fake, faint smile.

"Replying to Your Majesty, nothing has changed during this time, except that I fainted just now for some reason."

Qiu Meier waved her delicate fingers and said nonchalantly.

"This is how the secret technique works normally. It will continuously erode your body until I give you the antidote. Now, go down and do not disturb me."

Upon hearing this, the "young lady" nodded slightly, bowed, and then slowly withdrew. However, after leaving, her hand, which had been tucked into her sleeve, clenched tightly.

Qiu Meier, who had been calm and seemingly oblivious just moments before, now had a suspicious look in her eyes as she stared silently at Xiao Tao as she walked away.

"Such intense resentment? It seems someone has come into contact with this little girl. But it doesn't matter. Once I obtain the Nine-Turn White Deer Ginseng, everything will be over."

Li Langjun, oh Li Langjun, you will become one with me then, so please don't run away from me then."

Then, accompanied by giggles, the courtyard returned to its usual tranquility once again, with only the faint sound of burning incense and prayers, as well as various strange sounds from the White Lotus Pure World Sect, audible.

……

The treasure vault of the Marquis of Changning's mansion.

Lord Zhang sat upright on the Tai Chi Yin-Yang meditation cushion, his face unusually pale. It was a pity that he was old; his skin was loose and deeply lined, giving him an eerie and bewitching appearance.

Kneeling at Lord Zhang's feet was a bodyguard dressed in black, who was reporting to him on the many events that had occurred recently.

"You mean the Marquis of Changning has been taken away by Guo Xiaotian? I never expected that this marquis would end up like this. But it doesn't matter, this place is quite close to the capital, and someone will come to help him out."

However, whether this Marquis can hold out until then is another matter entirely. Furthermore, I myself urgently need that Nine-Turn White Deer Ginseng.

Upon hearing this, the guard immediately lowered his head respectfully and said in a muffled voice.

"Your Excellency possesses extraordinary strength and will surely be able to kill that old scoundrel Guo Xiaotian."

My subordinates have already located Li Qingshan. Once he shows up, we will immediately suppress him and send him here.

This Lord Zhang waved his hand, stood up, and stretched his stiff body, his muscles and bones creaking.

"Alright, our adopted son, whom we finally managed to get, died at the hands of Li Qingshan. This time, we're going to settle this score properly."

As for Guo Xiaotian, don't rush him. The Marquis is no pushover. It will probably take another day or two of torture before he finds out the location of the Nine-Turn White Deer Ginseng. You must keep a close eye on Master Guo.

After speaking, Lord Zhang waved his hand, and a flush immediately appeared on his somewhat aged face, as if something he was extremely looking forward to was about to happen.

"Li Qingshan, Li Qingshan, we've already heard your cries of agony in our hands. We hope you can hold out a little longer, and don't spoil our fun."

As he spoke, this Lord Zhang moved forward swiftly like a ghost, disappearing from the vicinity of the treasure vault in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, dozens of guards, who claimed to be protecting the treasure vault, also followed Lord Zhang at this moment.

At this moment, the entire city of Lin'an began to surge into chaos.
