Lin'an City.

The pedestrians on the street seemed somewhat desolate.

Li Qingshan, Chen Liang, and Qin Ligong walked down the street, looking somewhat out of place.

Both the surrounding merchants and the pedestrians around them were enveloped in a sense of solemnity.

"As expected of the anniversary of the prince's death, the death of one person can cause the whole city to be solemn."

I am truly remarkable, truly remarkable... This is what a real man should be like!

Qin Ligong couldn't help but sigh at this moment.

It was precisely because he had the power of the Left Prime Minister and the Pure World Sect behind him that he was able to understand the benefits that power could bring to a person.

For him, death was inevitable, but a grand funeral would be the most wonderful thing in the world.

"Let's hurry, or we'll get nothing..."

Chen Liang didn't care about any of that. Now that he had allied with Li Qingshan, he naturally wanted to seize more benefits as soon as possible, so he hurriedly urged him on.

Li Qingshan remained silent, continuing to explore the mysteries of true qi.

After all, this substance bursts forth from his body, and can be long or short, changing unpredictably. However, it will decay on its own after being too far from his body, and may even turn into a wisp of pure energy and dissipate.

This item is not very useful in combat, but if it can be developed properly, it might be able to trap the enemy.

The three of them were quite fast.

In less than a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the vicinity of the Marquis's residence, but by then the residence was already covered with a layer of white frost.

For miles around, white cloths could be seen laid out on the ground, and people were dressed in various mourning clothes, showing the grandeur of the anniversary of the death.

"How spectacular! But why hasn't anyone made a move yet? Are they waiting too?"

Seeing this, Li Qingshan couldn't help but frown and say something.

To fish in troubled waters, the most important thing is to make the water muddy.

Otherwise, if Li Qingshan dared to go in and wreak havoc, he would definitely be targeted by everyone.

Even if Li Qingshan could withstand four enemies with his fists, he would be instantly killed.

"This...that's not right. According to the Protector, the Changning Marquis's residence should be in chaos by now. Why hasn't anything changed?"

Chen Liang was stunned, his mouth full of disbelief.

Li Qingshan ignored the two Pure World Cult members beside him; no matter what, he was determined to obtain the broken blade of the Nine Yang Sword.

Li Qingshan then headed towards the side gate of the Marquis's residence, where only two servants were present, dressed in white robes with sorrowful expressions, seemingly mourning the Marquis of Changning.

"This is... Manager Li's?!"

The two men were taken aback, looked at Li Qingshan who was also dressed in a white robe, and then let him in.

Upon entering the Changning Marquis's residence, Li Qingshan did not immediately go to find the eldest and second young ladies.

As for the third young lady, Xiao Ruoli?

Li Qingshan had no intention of helping the other party fight against others after disgusting them.

Following the route he remembered, he quickly disappeared into the garden.

When he reappeared, Li Qingshan was already in a rather dark courtyard.

This is the residence of the Fourth Miss.

It's pitiful to say, but this fourth young lady, Xiao Ruohan, was born to the Marquis of Changning after he got drunk and had an affair with a maid.

According to rumors, this fourth young lady was born weak and sickly, and even killed her own mother, making her a complete jinx.

Because of her extremely special status, and because she was not favored by the Marquis and his wife, she could only be cared for by a woman who was born unable to speak.

call……

The rustling of leaves in the wind, along with the surrounding white curtains, added to the eerie atmosphere of the mansion.

However, to Li Qingshan's surprise, a young woman was gently feeding fish with food in her hand by the flower bed in the middle of the mansion.

In the pond, koi carp swam happily, a stark contrast to the woman's sorrow.

"Who are you?"

Xiao Ruohan, who was feeding the koi, seemed to sense something. She slightly raised her head and looked at Li Qingshan with eyes as clear as still water, asking in surprise.

Li Qingshan didn't reply. Instead, he took a few steps forward and asked with a hint of inquiry.

"Today is the anniversary of the Marquis's death. Why doesn't Miss go to pay her respects?"

Hearing these words and seeing the handsome young man pressing her so hard, a resolute look flashed in Xiao Ruohan's eyes, and her bitterness deepened.

"You were sent by the old lady, weren't you? You don't need to lift a finger. I know that after today, I will have nowhere to stay in this manor."

As he spoke, Xiao Ruohan revealed a dagger gleaming with a cold light from his sleeve.

Immediately, she slashed at her own wrist.

Unfortunately, although the dagger was sharp, it was not positioned properly, and only a little blood seeped from Xiao Ruohan's wrist, glowing with a faint red light.

"This...that's how it's written in the storybooks, why didn't I...?"

Upon seeing this scene, Xiao Ruohan panicked instantly, as it was completely different from what she had expected.

Li Qingshan was also somewhat stunned. He had only come here to inquire about the current situation of the Marquis of Changning's residence and wanted to obtain information from this young lady.

But to my utter surprise, the other party was so... bizarre!

boom!

Li Qingshan flicked out a wisp of true energy, knocking the dagger from Xiao Ruohan's hand.

Before the other party could react, Li Qingshan strode up to Xiao Ruohan and subdued her.

"You... lecherous scoundrel..."

Feeling the force on her neck, Xiao Ruohan's face turned red, but she still spat softly.

"Fourth Miss, please don't put me in a difficult position. I just want to know..."

Before Li Qingshan could finish speaking, he felt dizzy and could vaguely smell a fragrance around him.

This scent was different from the Ninth Madam's natural fragrance; it was exceptionally alluring and seductive, even causing dizziness.

Then, losing his mind, Li Qingshan looked at Xiao Ruohan with bloodshot eyes and a wicked smile on his lips.

"Oh no... He smelled my blood, he's doomed."

"No, no, no, is he going to... be in danger today?"

Xiao Ruohan exclaimed in surprise, but the next moment her cherry-like mouth was sealed shut, and she couldn't say a word.

Then, Li Qingshan picked him up and carried him into the dimly lit house behind them.

However, along the way, Xiao Ruohan's greenish-blue clothes were in danger of being torn apart. In the process, her bright red bodice could be seen, covering her round and jade-like breasts.

Li Qingshan was completely unaware of this erotic scene; at that moment, he was driven only by the instincts of a wild beast and the urge to tear everything apart.

……

Several hours later.

As the creaking of the bed stopped, Li Qingshan finally came to his senses, staring blankly at everything that had happened before him.

Under the bright red quilt, Xiao Ruohan's stunning figure was completely concealed.

Those somewhat lively eyes held a mixture of fear of Li Qingshan, and a touch of shame and eagerness.

"Fourth Miss, your blood is rather unusual; I never expected it could even cloud my judgment?"
