"Master Zheng."

"Meet the incense master—"

"Meet the maid."

When the Lotus believers who passed by saw Li Qingluo and Zheng Lingzhou, they all knelt down and greeted them.

Ever since the massacre at Jingyun Villa and the fall of the four Dharma protectors, the Lotus Sect has become a mess.

Although the leader is the spirit that unites all the believers, Qinyu cannot appear at any time.

Moreover, the incident at Jingyun Villa paved the way for the prince to return to the Eastern Palace, and Qinyu could only swallow the bitter fruit of having half of the Lotus Sect's territory destroyed.

But later, the eight maids died again.

Qin Ling and others were also captured.

After the Spring Banquet Tower and the Lisboa Casino were successively destroyed, the Lotus Sect was no longer influential.

The rescue attempt at the West Gate for Zheng Lingzhou failed again, and instead Prince Su wiped out the last remaining Lotus Cult members in Jinling City.

At this point, there were no more Lotus followers in Jinling City who could accomplish anything.

After learning the result, Zong Zheng Yu'er spat out a mouthful of blood.

Since then, he has been completely devastated.

However, Qinyu had no idea that Zheng Lingzhou and Zheng Wanxiu, brother and sister, had already been subdued by Duan Rongshi.

Imprisoned in the stone prison, she had no idea that Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi were using her identity as the goddess of the Lotus Sect to plot another big move.

Ever since the Lotus Goddess 'Zhuiyu' appeared in Qishan, the last Lotus believers who were originally scattered all over the world have flocked to her.

Soon, the last batch of Lotus Sect believers gathered on Qishan Mountain.

Although the Lotus Goddess rarely speaks, as soon as she appears, her believers rush towards her like crazy, fanatically and mindlessly.

Even if they just reach out to touch the corner of the goddess' skirt, they can pay with their lives.

Fortunately, there were two guardians, Zheng Lingzhou and Zheng Wanxiu, who were in charge of the situation. They were able to discipline the believers into formal believers who understood the "rules" in the shortest possible time.

Seeing that the power of the Lotus Cult in Qishan was growing stronger and stronger, it was about to catch all the remaining remnants of the Lotus Cult scattered among the people into the net.

Li Qingluo knew that the time was finally coming.

"Our goddess is here to save the people of the world. From now on, men and women will be equal. Even a talented woman like my elder sister can pass the imperial examination and become an official. There will no longer be a girl who dies in childbirth at the age of fourteen. How wonderful is that?"

"Yes. My mother and I can also go out and do business, so my father and sister won't starve to death..."

"The two brothers in our village who were beaten to death by bullies should now get justice, right?"

Li Qingluo listened carefully for a while before she and Zheng Lingzhou left completely.

When she reached the edge of the cliff, she turned her head to look at the person behind her.

"So, you and Aunt Zheng joined the Lotus Sect just to avenge your Zheng family?"

Zheng Lingzhou did not hide it from her any longer: "Yes. We want to overthrow the Duan Dynasty and kill that tyrant!"

"However, my sister and I also strongly agree with the original beliefs of the Lotus Sect."

"If she had truly wanted to carry forward the Lotus Sect, it would never be what it is today."

It’s a pity that the Lotus Sect that Zong Zheng Yu’er painstakingly built over many years was only offered as a sacrifice to Crown Prince Duan Rongyin.

If she had not later used the Lotus Sect as a force, burning, killing, looting and doing many evil things, the Lotus Sect would not have gone further and further down the path of a cult.

Li Qingluo: "Aren't you the executioner who assisted the tiger?"

"Zheng Lingzhou, don't think that just because you've changed your appearance now, you can erase what you did in the past."

Zheng Lingzhou was a little annoyed when he heard her contemptuous tone: "What unforgivable mistake have I made?"

"Even Prince Su can let bygones be bygones between me and my elder sister, so why can't you?"

Li Qingluo: "If it weren't for you, Sui'er wouldn't have died!"

Li Qingluo stared at him fiercely.

"And I."

"If I hadn't believed you all this time, I would have died a long time ago, right?"

Zheng Lingzhou took a few steps back with a pale face.

He knew that she already knew the truth!

I heard that Zulia is completely dead.

When Zheng Lingzhou first heard the news, besides being a little shocked, he actually felt relieved in his heart.

He was tongue-tied and wanted to explain.

But I don’t know what to say.

He and his elder sister really wanted to take her life.

He wanted her to suffer all kinds of grievances in the Li family, die in the most miserable way, and become an angry and resentful spirit.

In this way, his and his elder sister's closest bloodline can continue to survive in this world.

"But, but the incident didn't happen, did it?"

"Luo'er, uncle..."

Li Qingluo: "Shut up!"

"You are Li Jingchuan's uncle, not mine!"

"I no longer expect any extra family affection. Having my grandmother in this world is enough for me."

"Who are you?"

"Do you really think I'm an ignorant girl who has never experienced anything? I will take the initiative to climb up and give my whole heart to you at the slightest kindness, and then let you take whatever you want, right?"

She is someone who has already died once.

If it weren't for her grandmother, family affection would be the thing she cared least about.

Only her grandmother could make her do it again.

“Also, what didn’t happen wasn’t because it couldn’t happen.”

"I stopped the tragedy from happening to me."

"If not for this, I would have died on a snowy night last winter, right?"

"Zheng Lingzhou, I will never forgive you!"

Facing her cold gaze, Zheng Lingzhou's face was dejected.

However, he was never one to give up easily.

The angrier Li Qingluo became, the more he wanted to have things clear with her.

He took a few big steps forward and asked excitedly, "Luo'er, you can ask me to do anything, as long as you are willing to let go of this matter and accept Xiaochuan..."

Li Qingluo raised his arm and stabbed the dagger in his hand into his shoulder.

Her white clothes were stained with drops of blood that spurted from his wounds.

Zheng Lingzhou felt pain, but did not push her away.

Instead, he held her hand and stabbed the dagger deeper: "If this can make you feel better, what's the harm in stabbing deeper?"

Li Qingluo broke free.

Think he is a lunatic.

Crazier than myself.

She couldn't help but sneer: "You clearly know that I won't take your life."

"Since His Royal Highness Prince Su wants to keep you, there is still a reason for you to stay alive."

"It's just Zheng Lingzhou. From now on, when we meet, we are neither acquaintances nor related to each other."

"Just be a passerby who doesn't interfere with other people's business!"

She said this and was about to leave.

Zheng Lingzhou stretched out his bloody hand and held her tightly.

"Luo'er!"

"I know you will soon become the Princess Su."

"But I just want to ask one thing..."

"Is he good to you?"

Li Qingluo looked at Zheng Lingzhou suspiciously.

I don't understand why he would ask such a question?

However, at this moment, a deep and angry voice sounded behind them: "What are you doing?"

Li Qingluo turned his head and saw Duan Rongshi, who was dressed in black and dressed very simply.

Before she could react, Zheng Lingzhou had already quickly pushed her away.

"Please don't misunderstand me, Your Highness."

"It was me and Luo...who were discussing some insignificant past events with the Yaoguang County Master."

"I have offended the county lady, Your Highness, and I beg you to punish me."

Duan Rongshi saw the dagger on Zheng Lingzhou's shoulder blade and the bloodstains all over his body, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Go down!"

Zheng Lingzhou stood up and left quickly.

After he had walked far away, he looked back.

Seeing the two of them standing together, his eyes revealed an endless sense of loss that he couldn't hide...

Before Zheng Lingzhou had gone far, Duan Rongshi had already walked over.

He had a stern face and took a handkerchief to wipe the blood off her hands vigorously.

But no matter how hard you try, you can't really wipe it away without leaving any trace.

Li Qingluo's palm was almost scratched by him.

She couldn't help but whisper, "Your Highness?"

"Are you angry because Zheng Lingzhou grabbed my wrist?"

Duan Rongshi: "No. Am I such a petty-minded husband?"

However, he stared at her fiercely.

Which girl is as straightforward as her, and has no shyness when talking about the relationship between men and women?

She was caught having an affair with another man by her future husband, but she remained calm and collected.

Being so open and honest made Duan Rongshi feel so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger.

Li Qingluo stared at him with a half-smile.

It was as if he had already seen through him completely.

Duan Rongshi: ...

Okay, just treat him as he is.

"If you do that again, I'll make you pay!"

Li Qingluo instead started teasing him: "How do you want me to look good, Your Highness?"

Duan Rongshi narrowed his eyes, grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms, his tone already thick with threats: "Why, is there really going to be a next time?"

"Then it won't just be his hand, I'll cripple your wrist too!"

He said it fiercely, and the strength in his hands became a little stronger.

He was not a particularly sentimental person.

Her uniqueness is rare in the world.

The darkness and bloodthirstiness in his heart have never diminished in the slightest.

If Li Qingluo really wanted to betray him, he would never show mercy.

Even if I cripple her, I will still keep her by my side.

Li Qingluo was a little frightened by him.

Seeing her face turn pale, Duan Rongshi's tone softened again: "Have you calmed down?"

He asked her suddenly.

Li Qingluo looked up at him.

Could it be that he had already guessed what Zheng Lingzhou and his sister had intended for her?

But he still spared the lives of the siblings.

Because, compared to the grievances she had suffered, the injustice suffered by the Zheng family was more important.

He had considered it in his mind, so this time he gave up the entanglement between her and the Zheng siblings.

Some things were not stated, but both of them knew it in their hearts.

Some things cannot be explained too clearly.

"No."

After she finished speaking, she strode away with her arms folded, and Duan Rongshi quickly hugged her tightly in his arms.

"Luo'er, do you blame me?"

"I'll make it up to you later..."

Li Qingluo sighed deeply.

"How do you want me to blame you, Your Highness?"

"Besides, for Li Jingchuan's sake, I really won't kill them."

Even if he wanted to be ruthless, at least Zheng Wanxiu would be spared.

However, it is understandable that he recruited the Zheng siblings out of loyalty and old friendship.

Love is not the most important thing in this world.

There are many things that require "conscience".

Thinking of this, Li Qingluo turned around and hugged Duan Rongshi back.

"Your Highness, it really doesn't matter to me."

"If you feel you owe the Zheng family something, then there's nothing wrong with doing this, and they are indeed very useful."

"When we get married in the future, we will be one."

"Compared to these, Luo'er's personal grudges are nothing but trivial matters."

Her righteousness made Duan Rongshi feel even more ashamed.

He lifted her chin, looked into her eyes and asked gently, "How do you want me to compensate you?"

"Tell me, I'm willing to give you anything."

Li Qingluo smiled and said, "How about your eternal love?"
