Chapter 1077: The leader of the evil cult is a vampire?
The former Shi family mansion has become a ruin.
Occasionally, passers-by would shake their heads and sigh at the charred ruins. Who could have thought that the once prosperous gentry family would be wiped out overnight?
So, don’t offend people in the underworld. There is nothing wrong with being an ordinary person.
Lingtan stood at the entrance of the alley not too far away, frowning as he looked at the ruins that had been burned to nothing, feeling vaguely that something was wrong.
She had always felt that Xuanmo and Shi Li's friendship was unreliable, so she came here quietly, wanting to check Shi Li's background. Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived here, she heard that the Shi family had been wiped out.
It was such a coincidence that she really suspected that "Shi Li" was actually a fake identity. She borrowed an identity that would not be suspected to gain the trust of Xuan Mo and her, so she wiped out the Shi family and wanted to destroy the bodies.
But... Lingtan took advantage of Shi Li's unconsciousness and felt her pulse with his own hands. He found that she really had no internal strength at all and was just a weak woman who couldn't even lift a chicken.
If the enemy really wanted to plant a traitor around Mingjiao and Xuanmo, it seems that they would not choose such a person no matter what.
Unless... it's a honey trap!
A sharp spark flashed in Lingtan Lingyuan's beautiful eyes. She felt that she had guessed the key and turned around to leave.
She had to tell Xuan Mo about this guess as soon as possible so that he would be on guard and not fall into Shi Li's beauty trap!
But as soon as he turned around, Ling Tan realized something was wrong. A sword light with murderous intent was coming towards him.
The incident happened so suddenly that the person was unable to react. He instinctively used his Qing Kung Fu to leap up, avoiding the sword and landing on the roof next to him.
"who are you?"
Lingtan looked down from above and frowned at the young man in white who suddenly appeared.
He was still holding a long sword in his hand, and it was obvious that the previous slash was made by him.
The young man did not answer her question, but also jumped onto the roof, staring at Ling Tan and looking at him carefully, "The Shi family was wiped out, what does it have to do with you?"
The two stood close to each other, and Lingtan finally had the opportunity to see his full appearance. His handsome appearance was secondary. What really concerned Lingtan was the thin circle of ice patterns embroidered on the young man's cuffs.
This is the symbol of the Cangwu School, which is very famous in the martial arts world, and the young man is a disciple of the Cangwu School.
Ling Tan's mind changed, and his fierce aura weakened instantly, with a reddened look at the corners of his eyes, "I was just passing by here, and I heard that the Shi family was wiped out, so I wanted to come and take a look. Why did you attack me without saying a word?"
The delicate and soft voice made Qi Shaohuang freeze in place.
Although he is the most proud disciple of the head of the Cangwu sect and the eldest senior brother of this generation in the sect, he has always been focusing on swordsmanship in the Cangwu sect. This time he went out to gain experience on the orders of his master.
As soon as he arrived here, he encountered the tragic incident of the Shi family being wiped out. His hatred of evil made him unable to sit idly by, so he stayed nearby to see if the murderer would appear again. As a result, the first person who knew martial arts was Ling Tan.
Who knew that this girl was so unreasonable. She was furious one second and seemed like she was about to cry the next.
There was mist rising above the hot spring pool. Even though the surrounding candlelight was as bright as day, the water vapor blocked the view so that one could only see clearly if there was anyone in the water if one got closer.
However, at this time, the sound of water was clear, and you could tell without looking that someone was bathing in the pool.
"Ugh……"
Shi Li soaked her whole body in the warm spring water, leaving only her head above the water. She scooped up a handful of water with both hands and poured it on her face, letting out a contented sigh.
The night and the steaming mist around her gave her a complete sense of security.
A string of water drops remained on her cheeks, falling on her chin and about to fall off. Shi Li shook her head gently.
As the water drops fell, the bell pendant that she had been wearing around her neck also swayed.
Shi Li lowered her head and looked at the bell hanging below her collarbone, recalling the origin of this pendant.
When the original owner's father was dying, he entrusted all his family belongings to his distant uncle and aunt who were ruthless and cruel, but he secretly left this bell pendant to the original owner and told her not to tell anyone. If anyone comes to look for this bell in the future, it must be her future husband's family.
Although the original owner was naive and gullible, she was still obedient and always wore the pendant close to her body without telling anyone.
Shi Li reached out and picked up the pendant, holding it in front of her eyes and looking at it again and again. She felt that this exquisite bell was particularly familiar and very close to her.
As for her husband's family... she would definitely not admit it. Anyway, if someone really came to look for her, she would just deny it. The bells were worn close to her body, and no one would know unless she said anything.
After taking a comfortable bath, when Shi Li was about to go back to bed, something went wrong.
The palace was so huge that she was distracted and had no idea which fork in the road she had taken, and she couldn't find her original room no matter what she did.
In the huge corridor, apart from the candlesticks at both ends, there was only her elongated shadow.
If you take a few more steps, your footsteps will echo.
Somewhat scary.
Shi Li was not very timid and walked faster and faster. Seeing that the door in front of her looked very familiar, she pushed it open without thinking.
But when he looked carefully, he realized that it was not the room where he slept. He wanted to leave, but he saw a stone bed in the corner with a familiar person lying on it.
