Each world be

Shen Yan looked at his expression and didn't believe what he said.

The prefect's words may be true or false, but the development of the story may be true.

But according to the investigation of his subordinates, the secret sword manual is most likely in the hands of the prefect, but this old fox is always wary of him and refuses to tell him.

Although the Demon Cult is notorious, people in the martial arts world are terrified when they hear of it.

But Lizhou City is close to various martial arts factions after all. If one's identity is discovered, there is no guarantee that one will not be besieged.

Although his martial arts skills are very powerful now, he is outnumbered by the enemy. Just in case, he should hide his identity and find the secret book of Qingguang Sword Technique first.

However, the old fox just drank the water he added medicine to, and after tonight, he will die soon.

And he has successfully replaced the guards of the prefectural mansion with his own people. He has plenty of opportunities to turn the mansion upside down. He is sure to find the secret book.

If worst comes to worst, there is still the old fox’s precious daughter.

Shen Yan pretended to comfort him, "Don't worry, father-in-law. Wei Hu and the others have already fled in defeat. I'm sure they won't come back in the short term."

The governor nodded, suddenly remembering the familiar sword techniques he had seen before he passed out.

"By the way, where is Young Master Gu Xiao?"

"I'm looking after my sister." Shen Yan said truthfully, and then asked, "Father-in-law, do you want to ask Gu Xiao to come?"

He also remembered that familiar and powerful sword technique.

He is familiar with it because he has been learning it since he was a child.

The extermination of the Xiao family fifteen years ago did not result in nothing being found.

The last leader of the Demon Cult was his father. He got the first half of the Qingguang Sword Technique, but the second half is missing.

If Gu Xiao had not used the Qingguang sword technique to force Wei Hu back tonight, he would not have known that the only son of the Xiao family was still alive.

Since he is alive and has found the Yin Mansion, he must be looking for the secret book of Qingguang Sword Technique as well.

We were enemies to begin with, and now we cannot keep each other any longer.

The governor thought for a moment and said, "No need. It's not a big deal. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

"It's late at night, so father-in-law should have a good rest first."

"it is good."

The governor had just laid down when he saw Shen Yan, who was about to close the door and leave, and suddenly called out to him:

"Lin Yan, Yue'er is innocent and kind. You should be more considerate of her in the future."

Shen Yan paused in closing the door, then smiled softly and replied, "Of course I can."

After the door closed, he smiled meaningfully.

Of course I will take the responsibility.

Although I didn't find out where the sword-fighting secrets were hidden tonight, I still learned something from the old fox.

He didn't care about the past between Governor Yin and his good friend.

At the beginning, they dug deep in the Xiao family but still couldn't find the secret book, so it must be in Yin's house. Governor Yin was the only one who had been to the Xiao family.

Shen Yan left leisurely with a confident and arrogant smile.

At some point, the bright moon in the sky was gradually covered by dark clouds, with only a tiny glimmer of light showing through the layers of clouds.

"You're awake, how do you feel now?"

Shi Qing's breathing stagnated and he almost screamed out.

"What are you doing? You scared me to death!" When she saw that it was Gu Xiao, she said unhappily.

Anyone would be scared if they just opened their eyes early in the morning and saw a head approaching in front of them.

"I'm sorry, A Qing, I didn't mean to scare you."

Hearing her complaints, Gu Xiao quickly apologized and explained, "I'm just too happy. I have good news to tell you."

Shi Qing saw that he looked sincere and decided not to argue with him: "What's the good news?"

"There is an antidote for the poison in your body! Doctor Zhang came to the mansion early this morning and told me that there is a way to cure the poison in your body, but there is still a medicine missing. It is only available outside the city. I will go out and get it later."

He said with a smile, as if he was happier than finding a cure for himself.

"Am I really poisoned? But I don't feel any symptoms." Apart from the sudden cold last night, she didn't feel any discomfort.

Maybe it’s because of the medicine, the wound on my shoulder doesn’t hurt much anymore, or maybe it’s because the wound wasn’t stabbed deep last night.

"You have indeed been poisoned. Doctor Zhang and I cannot have made a wrong judgment."

The blood that flowed last night was indeed thick and abnormally black, a symptom of poisoning.

"What kind of medicine is so rare that it can only be found outside the city? Why do they want you to go there? Is it dangerous there?"

She looked anxious and asked several questions in a row.

"Are you worried about me?" Gu Xiao smiled, raised the corners of his eyes, and looked at her with sparkling eyes.

Shi Qing said angrily, "Who cares about you? I'm just worried that you can't get the medicine back."

A soft chuckle escaped from Gu Xiao's throat, and he laughed softly, with a gentle look in the corners of his eyes and brows.

"Okay, don't worry. There's nothing dangerous there. I was just afraid that others would be too slow and would delay your treatment, so I had to go and collect it myself."

Shi Qing blinked and repeatedly confirmed his expression, "Then be careful, I'll wait for you here."

After Gu Xiao left, Shi Qing realized that there was no one to talk to her.

Not to mention Shen Yan, even Yin Xinyue was nowhere to be seen. She lay there bored for the entire afternoon.

Finally, trying not to involve the aching wound on his shoulder, Shi Qing slowly got out of bed and walked to the window.

The sky is unusually bright today.

At first glance, the sky was covered with dark clouds, as if someone had suddenly splashed a basin of ink on it, with colors of varying shades.

It is going to rain.

I don’t know if Gu Xiao can make it back?

Putting on a coat casually, Shi Qing pushed open the door and walked aimlessly in the corridor.

The wind before a rainstorm is always extremely strong, and it tosses the roses in the yard without mercy. After being tossed several times, the bright flowers are on the verge of falling, looking so pitiful.

I wonder if the people in Yin Mansion know Shen Yan’s true identity after what happened last night.

As I was thinking this, I unknowingly arrived at an unfamiliar yard.

There was no one around and the light was getting dimmer, making people feel like they were in a long night.

Layers of dark clouds loomed overhead, as if they were about to fall at any time.

Where is this?

Thinking secretly in his mind, Shi Qing looked around and saw long corridors and pavilions extending in all directions.

Suddenly, a series of footsteps, neither light nor heavy, came to my ears from not far ahead, carried by the wind.

Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw a corner of a dark robe floating into my sight, followed by a tall and straight figure and a sharp and evil profile.

It’s Shen Yan!

Reflexively, Shi Qing turned around and pressed himself against a pillar, took a light breath, and then tentatively moved his eyes out little by little to observe.

Shen Yan just looked around, then said something to the man in black beside him, then turned and walked into the room behind him.

The man in black looked around vigilantly for a moment, then quickly left and disappeared.

Shi Qing exhaled softly and waited quietly for a moment, making sure that the man in black had really left before walking out from behind the pillar.

He raised his eyes to look at the room that Shen Yan entered, pondered for a moment, then gently lifted his feet and crouched towards that side.

Coming to the window, she carefully stretched her head out and peeked through the gap in the window with her eyes squinted.
