Chapter 325 Arrival at Tianyin Mansion

Chapter 325 Arrival at Tianyin Mansion

The man was dressed in gray, had a thin and hunched body, and had sparse gray hair.

He is an ordinary-looking old man...

But now the old man is holding a human head in his hand.

The man died with his eyes wide open, filled with resentment, but he was powerless to change his fate.

Everyone present, except Han Qiuze, had seen this old man.

That was in front of Liangjie City, an old man who sacrificed his life to protect the little slave and was whipped several times.

Chu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw the old man smiling and saying:

“Thanks to your kindness before, I said I owe you a favor.

"Today I saw you causing a big commotion at the Han family, and there were some scoundrels following you... I didn't know you were waiting for them. I wanted to repay you, but I didn't expect to ruin your plans.

"I am extremely ashamed. Please forgive me, young man."

The old man was very polite. He clasped his hands together and was about to bow while speaking.

But it was only at this moment that he realized that there was a human head in his hand, and he threw it aside as if it were garbage.

Chu Qing stepped aside, not accepting the greeting, and just spoke slowly:
"So, the two city lords of Liangjie City and the slave traders in the city were arrested overnight. Was it all caused by you, old sir?"

Chu Qing stared at this person, and for a moment he was unsure where he came from.

In fact, Chu Qing thought of this matter after waking up that day in Liangjie City.

So he looked unhappy at that time because he felt that he was tricked.

It's just that at that time he was in a hurry to come to the Han family and didn't care about the old man he met on the way.

But I didn't expect that the old man would show up again today...

The old man showed anger on his face:
“The slave trade was extremely cruel, and men, women, young and old were all subjected to inhuman treatment.

“I am powerless to reverse the situation, but now that I have seen it, I cannot just ignore it.

"That day, I saw the vendor beating the child, and I was extremely angry... If it wasn't inconvenient for me to take action during the day, I would have definitely taught him a lesson on the spot."

This statement explains the motivation and also gives a reason.

The old man could not stand the slave trade, and he did not display his martial arts that day because it was inconvenient to do so during the day.

So it wasn't intentional deception?
Chu Qing raised his eyebrows slightly and clasped his fists:
"I am Han San, a junior. I am honored to meet you, Senior. May I ask your name?"

Now that the little misunderstanding was resolved, Chu Qing began to discuss.

The old man looked at Chu Qing with a half-smile:
"This old man...does good deeds!"

"?"

A question mark appeared in Chu Qing's mind, doing good deeds?

I really want to ask, what is your relationship with Xingzhi?
But this was just an inner complaint...I didn't really ask it out loud.

Chu Qing also couldn't find any clues about this person from the faces of Liu Qingyan and Su Ningzhen. The two girls seemed even more confused than he was.

"Young man, don't worry about it. I am an unknown person. I walk in this world for no other reason than a kind thought."

Xingshan spoke softly, but the words he said were extremely strange:
"The crisis in the Lingbei martial arts world is imminent. If we are not careful, it will lead to a major event that will sweep the world. I think you still have important things to do.

"I have the audacity to come here tonight and ruin your plans. I will just record this as an expense.

"One day I will repay you for these two favors..."

"Is the child okay?"

Chu Qing suddenly asked.

The old man smiled slightly, nodded and said:

"I found a childless farm family to adopt the child. The couple doted on him and he lived a very happy life."

Chu Qing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he looked serious and not pretending.

Ever since he realized that this man had martial arts skills, what he was most worried about was not the fact that he had been tricked, but the child he had taken away.

He hid his martial arts skills and acted like this, so Chu Qing couldn't help but suspect that he had other intentions.

But now it seems that I was judging others by my own standards.

“Well, this old man showed up just to see you.

"It's just delayed your business."

The old man waved his hand:
"Farewell."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step back and his figure was ten feet away. He turned around again and blended into the darkness, disappearing almost in the blink of an eye.

At this point, Chu Qing looked at Wenrou.

Gentle but frowning:
"Something strange..."

Chu Qing came to her:

"what happened?"

Wenrou whispered to Chu Qing:

“I don’t know how to describe it… When I first met him, he just smelled like an ordinary person.

"I had not caught any scent until he showed up tonight.

“After he showed up, the smell I smelled was exactly the same as the smell I smelled that day. It did not change at all because of his display of martial arts.

“But when he left just now, the moment I could no longer see him, the smell disappeared completely.

"It's as if he had never been there."

This was the first time in Wenrou's life that such a situation had ever happened.

Even if it was the Blood Prince, he could hide it from the gentle nose, but it was because he changed from the inside out and it would not disappear completely.

Chu Qing frowned slightly and looked at the old man with even higher regard.

But...the name of doing good is indeed unfamiliar.

I don’t know if it was just a pseudonym he made up casually and carelessly.

But no matter what, at least for now, this old man doesn't seem to be a bad person... Chu Qing put aside his thoughts for the time being and came to Han Qiuze.

She reached out and took off a piece of his clothes, then poked his fingertips:

"Record everything you just said."

Han Qiuze did not hesitate. It was useless to shirk responsibility at this point, so he used the blood on his fingers to write down what he had just told Chu Qing, as well as the entire process.

Due to limited space, I cannot include every detail, but the overall process and subsequent planning are all worth scrutinizing.

Finally, Chu Qing asked him to leave his name on it, and then kept the confession written in blood.

Han Qiuze looked up at Chu Qing, waiting for his own ending with a calm expression.

Chu Qing didn't hesitate at all and slapped Han Qiuze on the head, killing him completely.

"With this confession, although we cannot directly clear Tianyin Mansion of the charges, it at least provides room for mediation."

Liu Qingyan stood up and bowed to Chu Qing:
"Thank you very much."

Chu Qing waved his hand:

"There's no need to be so polite between you and me."

Liu Qingyan was stunned, and couldn't help but glance at Chu Qing, then looked at Wu Qianhuan who was dressed as a man, with a strange expression:
"Your words...are not appropriate to say in front of your fiancée, right?"

"It doesn't matter."

Wu Qianhuan smiled and said:

"I also think that you don't need to be too polite with each other."

"..."

Liu Qingyan suddenly felt a little awkward. Wasn't this a bit too generous?
I am a pretty woman... Although I am a few years older than Han San, as someone's fiancée, it is natural for you to be angry when your fiancé speaks to others like this, right? Chu Qing glanced at Liu Qingyan with a half-smile:
"I advise you not to let your imagination run wild."

After saying this, he turned and looked at the corpse next to him.

It's called a corpse, but in fact everyone can see now that this guy is not dead at all.

Logically speaking, he had been dead for more than seven days.

Not only was there no sign of decay, there wasn't even a speck of corpse on the body... This showed that Chu Qing had made the right bet that day.

This guy just faked his death and put on a show in front of everyone.

When everything is settled, he can wake up and start over again without delaying anything...

And this is also one of the keys to clearing Tianyin Mansion of its charges.

If this person had not held the blood letter that day and claimed that he was going to investigate on the orders of Han Yiren, and had not eventually brought back Duan Qinghe's blood letter, the blame would not have been put on Tianyin Mansion.

The person who should have been killed is not dead yet, and there is Han Qiuze's confession.

Although it may not be possible to directly reverse the situation, things will definitely not go as the Han family and the Tianxie Cult wish.

What's more, You Zong might be able to bring back some surprises.

In this way, turning the tide may not be impossible.

Therefore, at this moment, it doesn’t really matter whether this person wakes up or not. As long as he doesn’t die… Tianyin Mansion has something to say.

As it got darker, everyone went to rest.

Chu Qing and Wu Qianhuan leaned against each other, whispered a few words, and asked Wu Qianhuan to go to bed early.

He opened the system interface himself.

Two more suffixes on the Blood Sea Record became [已执者].

Instead, Chu Qing now has a chance to choose a treasure chest, as well as a random martial arts treasure chest that he actually gets.

There are naturally seven optional treasure chests.

[Sword Skills Treasure Box, Strange Skills Treasure Box, Boxing Skills Treasure Box, Sound Skills Treasure Box, Finger Skills Treasure Box, Gun Skills Treasure Box, Formation Skills Treasure Box]

Chu Qing needs to choose one of these seven treasure chests...

He stared at it for a long time and felt that the treasure chest of strange learning was still worth the investment.

After all, the two skills he got from the treasure chest of rare skills, whether it was the Color of Heaven and Earth or the later Art of Absolute Wisdom, were extremely useful.

The former is a powerful weapon for showing off, while the latter is even more astonishingly powerful.

It is enough to make a master who has practiced hard for a lifetime fall into dust in an instant.

In comparison, the other treasure chests had relatively little appeal to Chu Qing.

After hesitating for a while, Chu Qing finally chose the Qixue treasure chest.

But he didn't rush to open it...

The Blood Sea Record is a big task. If you complete the whole set, you can get a total of nine treasure chests.

Four optional, four random, and one unique skill.

In addition to the one that Han Qiuyuan has already opened, you can still get eight.

Plus... Little Knife King Li Shengxing also followed Han Yiren to Tianyin Mansion. If he's lucky this time, he might be able to complete the mission of being unnamed on the list.

Then I can get another treasure chest or two.

Come on, come on, there are ten of them.

If you can be patient for a while, you can directly do a ten-draw game.

If it's ten consecutive draws, Chu Qing believes that he should be given an internal skill anyway, right?
Thinking this in his mind, he suppressed the urge to open the box, hugged Wu Qianhuan, who was sleeping against a tree, in his arms, and closed his eyes.

Wu Qianhuan was almost asleep, but he tossed her around and she suddenly opened her eyes:
"what?"

"Distract yourself... go to sleep."

"..."

Wu Qianhuan pinched his waist unhappily and gradually fell asleep.

Chu Qing didn't fall asleep, he just closed his eyes and rested, after all, he still had to keep watch.

That night, nothing else happened except that in the second half of the night, Wu Qianhuan, who was originally lying on Chu Qing's shoulder, ended up lying on Chu Qing's thighs.

The next morning, everyone continued their journey.

The Han family has gotten everything they should have gotten on this trip. Liu Qingyan is eager to return to Tianyin Mansion as soon as possible.

Chu Qing touched the letter in his sleeve, feeling somewhat complicated.

Although performing Qinggong is extremely fast, it is inevitable to rest in the middle of the journey. Therefore, when passing through the next town, everyone bought a few good horses and galloped all the way to take the shortest distance between two points. But even so, it took another six or seven days before they truly stepped into the territory of Tianyin Mansion.

After setting foot here, Liu Qingyan felt that every pore in her body was extremely comfortable.

Gradually, I became more and more confident.

Describe the customs and practices of Tianyin Prefecture to Chu Qing and others.

But when passing through a small town, this high-spirited attitude was broken.

The townspeople all had worried looks on their faces, and I found out after asking around.

Four days ago, a large group of people passed by here. They looked like people from Liaoyuan Prefecture and Liexing Prefecture. Their goal was clear, and they were heading straight for Tianyin Prefecture.

The Tianyin Palace did not hinder their arrival at all.

This was expected...

Today, Tianyin Mansion is in a dilemma.

The people who stopped Liaoyuan Mansion and Liexing Mansion indirectly showed that there was indeed something wrong with Tianyin Mansion, and they did not dare to meet the fellows from these two mansions.

But if we don't stop it... it will be extremely dangerous if it is allowed to advance all the way.

After all, even if the underworld in Lingbei is at peace, it would be very risky to allow others to lead a large number of troops deep into the hinterland.

But now Tianyin Mansion has no choice...

Between risk and shit, they chose the former.

After hearing this news, how could Liu Qingyan sit still?
He immediately galloped his horse again and led everyone to Tianyin Mansion...

This journey lasted nearly ten days.

It is the location of the main city of Tianyin Prefecture, which is very far away from the border. If the terrain of the entire Tianyin Prefecture is an ellipse, then the main city is at the other end.

It almost spanned the entire vast territory of Tianyin Prefecture.

The group had almost no rest along the way, traveling during the day and at night. The people could still bear it, but several horses had already died from exhaustion.

Finally, in the early morning of that day, everyone finally saw Tianlai City.

Looking around, there was no one from Liaoyuan Mansion and Liexing Mansion. It was obvious that Chu Qing and his group had galloped and finally left those people behind.

But what is coming will come...it's just a matter of time.

Liu Qingyan led Chu Qing and his party to open the tightly closed city gate, and drove straight into the Tianyin Mansion in Tianlai City.

It is still a city within a city, and its overall layout is almost identical to that of Star Rift City.

It’s just that there are no slave traders on the streets, and the residents of the city are not so hostile to outsiders.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard it creak open.

A middle-aged man who looked a bit like Chu Qing strode out and came to Liu Qingyan in a few steps:
"Yan'er, why did you come back just now?"

Chu Qing's fingertips moved slightly. He didn't need anyone to introduce him. He just looked at this face and felt a strange feeling in his heart.

He knew... that this person was his uncle, Liu Zhaonian!
