My sister is Luna

"What kind of monster is this? Is this Wang Wu's true face?"

While nimbly dodging the enormous creature's attacks, Gongsun Li spoke to Pei Qinhu. Her delicate face was filled with tension; she had never seen such a monster before.

"Who knows what he is, but he shouldn't be Wang Wu. Wang Wu probably went to find Cain and the others. We can handle Cain. Let's defeat him first, and then go find them."

Pei Qinhu transformed into a tiger, his agile figure weaving through the attacks, occasionally taking a bite out of the enormous creature.

"Blood, blood, give me your blood!"

This enormous creature was Zhang Shao, who was talking to Wang Wu. He also wore the same Blood Demon's Fury on his hand as Wang Wu. At this moment, his whole body was swollen, like a lump of flesh. He swung his fat arms, smashing craters into the ground. His attack and defense were both excellent, but speed was his weakness. As a result, he did not cause much damage to Pei Qinhu and Gongsun Li. Instead, he suffered more injuries, lost his rhythm, and his attacks became chaotic.

"Let's finish this quickly, the people from the Dali Temple will be here soon."

Holding a red umbrella, she moved nimbly, sometimes in the air, sometimes on the ground, constantly darting around as if teleporting. She would occasionally throw maple leaf-shaped darts at Zhang Shao, each attack precise and deadly, bursting into blooms of blood.

Zhang Shao became even more frantic, wildly swinging his fists like a trapped beast.

"Watch me blow your head off!"

Pei Qinhu leaped backward, transforming back into human form. He gathered all his strength and unleashed a powerful punch at Zhang Shao's head, producing a dull thud.

"Ah!" Zhang Shao cried out in pain as his massive body fell straight down, raising a cloud of dust.

"Is this the Prince's Mansion? Hello, is anyone there? We are from the Dali Temple. Open the door quickly, the government is here to bring you warmth."

The gates of the Prince's mansion were being pounded on, and many scattered footsteps could be heard outside, indicating that a large number of people had gathered.

"Alright, the Dali Temple constables have all arrived. Let's hide first." With that, Pei Qinhu and Gongsun Li ran towards the backyard.

"Sister Yuhuan, we're here!" Gongsun Li saw Yang Yuhuan coming out of the entrance in the backyard and quickly pulled her over.

"Hurry, hurry, the people from the Dali Temple are here!" Gongsun Li pulled Yang Yuhuan and jumped onto the wall.

“But Cain still…” Yang Yuhuan was about to say something when the Dali Temple constables rushed into the backyard, and they quickly hid.

"This must be the place. We just found someone who looks like a vampire outside. Search carefully again to see if he has any accomplices. Also, you guys should explore this entrance."

"Someone's coming out! Not a vampire!"

The constables surrounded Cain.

"I heard that Her Majesty the Empress seems to appreciate Cain quite a bit, so she probably won't make things difficult for him. She might even reward him. Besides, we haven't done anything wrong, and we've even rid the people of a scourge."

"But... um... I saw a troublesome guy. He's been keeping a close eye on our boss lately. I hope Cain doesn't give himself away. Let's go, or we'll be discovered if we keep looking at Di Renjie."

"Oh, Cain saw us. Quickly say hello and leave." Pei Qinhu said gloatingly to Cain, who was looking over.

"Cain, the credit is yours~" The three jumped over the wall.

……

"Phew... I'm finally free. That Di Renjie was truly terrifying. His reasoning ability was incredibly strong. He only asked me a few questions, and he had almost deduced the whole process. He truly deserves to be called a master detective. Luckily, I managed to get through it. His rationality and decisiveness were no different from the normal Milady." Cain was still a little shaken on the way.

"Cain, where did you go? You didn't even tell me!"

As soon as he reached the courtyard gate, he saw Shangguan Wan'er standing there angrily, hands on her hips, glaring at him fiercely and shouting loudly in dissatisfaction. She looked like a wife waiting for her husband to return home.

"Uh, I went out to take care of some things and grabbed lunch on the way." Cain turned his head away somewhat guiltily, not daring to look Shangguan Wan'er in the eye.

"Hey, I didn't do anything to wrong Wan'er, what's there to feel guilty about?" Cain sensed something was wrong and immediately looked at Shangguan Wan'er with a righteous air.

"Taking care of business? Went to see Milady?" Shangguan Wan'er suddenly looked at Cain with sharp eyes, a strange jealousy rising in her heart.

The thought of this possibility suddenly made her feel uneasy, with a strange sense of loss.

"No, I haven't figured out how to tell her yet, so why would I go to see her?" Cain said helplessly. Seeing Shangguan Wan'er's seemingly jealous expression, he found it somewhat amusing.

"What's with that expression? Do you still think you're not wrong?" Shangguan Wan'er asked, displeased, with her arms crossed.

"No, no, Miss, I was wrong." The experienced younger sister, Cain, immediately admitted defeat. Shangguan Wan'er was only concerned about him, and it wouldn't be good if she rejected her kindness.

"That's more like it." Shangguan Wan'er smiled with satisfaction, the gloom on her face instantly disappearing.

"By the way, you've finished your report and statement. I don't remember it being that quick, it usually takes about half a day to write, right?" Cain asked, looking at the relaxed Shangguan Wan'er as he walked into the courtyard.

"Well, I have to thank the power passed down in my family for making my writing speed twice as fast."

As Shangguan Wan'er spoke, a long and slender calligraphy brush suddenly materialized in her hand. The brush emitted a faint light, as if it contained a mysterious power.

"This is... energy manifesting?" Cain exclaimed in surprise.

“That’s right. The martial arts energy in my body allows me to create a substance similar to a calligraphy brush and produce ink. I used this power to quickly finish writing the report and statement. How about that? Pretty impressive, right?” Shangguan Wan’er said with a proud smile.

Wow, this feature exists? How convenient!

Cain sighed inwardly.

"I didn't expect you to use your power like this. It's impressive, but you need to figure out your own fighting style as soon as possible so that you can protect yourself."

"Okay, by the way, take a look at my explanation and see how it goes." Shangguan Wan'er took out a piece of paper and said to Cain expectantly, her eyes filled with a desire for approval.

"No problem, go ahead."

"Ahem, well then I'll speak." Shangguan Wan'er cleared her throat, her expression turning serious.

"Lord Di, I, Shangguan Wan'er, wish to appeal my innocence..." She had only spoken a few words when she was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Excuse me, is Lord Cain here?" A high-pitched voice came from the doorway; it belonged to a eunuch who was about fifty years old.

"That's me. May I ask what's the matter?" Cain turned around and stood up, already having a guess in his mind.

It seems that Wu Zetian already knows about my affairs and wants to summon me to the palace.

"Ah, my apologies, I've come to report that His Majesty invites you to the main hall for a chat," the eunuch said, just as Cain had expected.

"What does Her Majesty the Empress want with you? Have you done something wrong that Her Majesty wants to punish you?" Shangguan Wan'er asked with concern, her brows furrowed.

"Fool, this is a good thing. Don't worry, just stay here and don't wander off. I'll be back soon."

Cain chuckled. He patted her head, smoothed her long, flowing hair, and gave her a reassuring look.

Then he followed the eunuch and walked towards Wu Zetian's main hall.

Shangguan Wan'er stared blankly in the direction Cain had left, feeling a warmth in her heart, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up slightly.
