After being reborn, I locked up all the scumbags and bitches in one nest.

Old Madam Qin complained and cursed, "Isn't it all because you, you little bitch, poisoned our Shanyu's blood?"

Qin Wanyou explained aggrievedly, "Grandmother, you were all there and saw it. Apart from the bloodletting, I didn't even touch the bowl of blood."

Suddenly, her tone changed, and her eyes widened in astonishment, "Could it be...? Could it be that the poison my sister gave me is still in my body and hasn't been completely eliminated?"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Qin Mingzhu.

Qin Shuyu lowered her head.

Qin Mingzhu naturally denied it, "You're talking nonsense, when did I poison you?"

Qin Wanyou stared at Qin Mingzhu with a half-smile.

At this moment, Prime Minister Qin scolded, "Shut up, all of you! Stop making wild guesses. Saving Shanyu is the priority. Wanyou, you go with us to see the Ancestor."

Qin Wanyou nodded and followed.

The others followed behind, except for Old Madam Qin, because the old woman was a little afraid of that old ancestor, always feeling that he could see through everything.

I've come to this gloomy east courtyard once again.

After seeing that Qin Shanyu didn't say anything, the ancestor used his internal energy to expel the poison from Qin Shanyu after taking his pulse.

Qin Wanyou couldn't help but wonder if Qin Mingzhu or Qin Shuyu were poisoned, would the ancestor use his internal energy to expel the poison from them?

The answer is probably no.

Gradually, the poisonous blood on Qin Shanyu's body began to flow out through the wounds, while a distinct halo and rapidly rotating air currents hovered above Qin Shanyu's head.

After Qin Shanyu vomited black poisonous blood, the halo and airflow slowly disappeared.

Qin Wanyou never expected that the old man's martial arts skills were so powerful, they had reached a level of perfection.

The Qin family patriarch withdrew his inner strength and began to recover.

Before Qin Wanyou could react,

He instantly appeared in front of Qin Wanyou, grabbed her bandaged hand, pressed it to draw blood, smelled it, and then put it down, saying, "Her blood isn't poisonous."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to his meditation table.

Qin Wanyou was startled and almost made a move to reveal her skills, but luckily she reacted in time and was glad that she had actually made a cut.

As soon as they stepped out of the room, Madam Li asked anxiously, "How did it go?"

Qin Mingyu reassured Li Shi, "Mother, don't worry, the poison in Shanyu has been forced out by the Ancestor. He just needs to recover properly."

Madam Li immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but when she saw Qin Wanyou coming out from behind, her expression changed. She was about to say something to her...

Qin Mingyu spoke up beforehand to stop her, "Mother, Wanyou's blood isn't poisonous. The Ancestor examined it and confirmed that she wasn't the one who did it."

Li was still somewhat skeptical, "If it wasn't her, then who could it be?"

Qin Mingyu shook his head. "I don't know. We need to investigate the people in the Prime Minister's residence."

Upon seeing Qin Wanyou's hand bleeding again, Shuangling immediately rushed forward with concern, "Miss, your hand?"

Qin Wanyou said calmly, "It's nothing, let's go."

Back at Qingzhu Courtyard,

When Shuangling learned the reason for the bleeding, she was shocked. Luckily, her mistress had the foresight, otherwise it would have been all over.

After reapplying the medicine, Qin Wanyou sat by the window, gazing at the bright moon, pondering her next plan.

Coincidentally, Murong Xiao was also pondering the news he had just received.

Mo Bei just rushed over to report that he had recently discovered that many wealthy young men and women in Yandu City with good talent who were cultivating spiritual power had suddenly woken up and lost their spiritual power.

In addition, the Prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture also received a report that several officials' sons had suddenly disappeared and could not be found. They were also talented individuals with exceptional spiritual abilities.

Although he had immediately reported to the Emperor and sent people to investigate, Murong Xiao was still worried. The missing people and those whose spiritual power had suddenly disappeared were all future pillars of the Great Yan Dynasty. Could it be the work of people from the Jiang Dynasty, or Chu Yue? Or the Empress Dowager's people? What kind of grand conspiracy was behind this?

This matter must not be neglected, and the instigator must not be let off the hook.

However, after two days of observation, the people sent out still did not find any unusual information. Moreover, no one's spiritual power suddenly disappeared during these two days, and no new missing persons reports were received.

"Master, do you think the person behind this already knows that someone is investigating him, so they dare not show their face and are hiding?" Mo Nan voiced his guess.

Murong Xiao thought it was possible, but there must be some grand conspiracy behind it. The thief might be digesting the spiritual energy he had previously seized. "Tell people not to retreat yet, to stay hidden, and not to be discovered. He will definitely reappear!"

Mo Nan replied, "Yes."

Qin Wanyou also received the news. The Wood Spirit and Earth Spirit were also investigating who did it, but so far they had not found any clues. This made the usually well-informed Earth Spirit, who was already silent, even more silent.

However, Qin Wanyou also reminded them to be careful not to run into this thief head-on. Someone who could capture so many people with high spiritual power and martial arts skills and absorb so much spiritual power must not be an ordinary person. The people of Ghost Pavilion are no match for that person.

Qin Mingzhu is getting married tomorrow. Originally, the wedding should have been postponed due to the tragic events that happened at the Right Prime Minister's residence, but Minister Li firmly disagreed.

The reason given was that this was the best day of the second half of the year and could not be postponed. If it were to be postponed, Qin Mingzhu would have to postpone her arrival at the mansion, but Li Jingyu would not be allowed to postpone it.

She certainly wouldn't allow Qin Mingzhu to postpone her visit to the mansion alone.

Others may not know the specific reason, but Qin Wanyou knows that Li Jingyu's belly is about to become obvious.

However, Qin Wanyou didn't care about these things; they had nothing to do with her.

Qin Wanyou is now considering whether she should personally go and see the delivery information tonight. After all, they have paid so much gold, and they might make a move after getting the news.

Mu Ling took the information to an empty house in the south of the city and secretly observed Qin Mingyu.

Qin Mingyu arrived at the agreed location with the remaining unpaid gold and was looking around to see where the Ghost Pavilion members were.

Seeing that Qin Mingyu was getting impatient, Mu Ling was about to appear when she was pulled back by a force from behind.

Mu Ling was startled and was about to attack when she heard a familiar voice.

"Don't move, we're preparing to leave." Qin Wanyou whispered. After thinking for a long time, she decided to come in person. Fortunately, she made it in time.

Mu Ling looked at Qin Wanyou with a puzzled expression.

Qin Wanyou explained softly, "They have a backup plan. There is someone with unfathomable martial arts skills waiting in the shadows. Going out would be suicide."

Mu Ling stared wide-eyed in disbelief and asked in a low voice, "Really?"

Qin Wanyou nodded. "I'm no match for him right now. I'll go get the gold quickly, you guys retreat."

Mu Ling said worriedly, "Sect Master, since such a powerful person has come, should we give up the gold?"

Qin Wanyou glanced at Mu Ling and said, "How can we let the gold that's almost in our hands fly away? You guys should get out of here first."

Seeing this, Mu Ling said nothing more and ordered her men to retreat quickly.

After watching them retreat, Qin Wanyou looked at Qin Mingyu, who was not far away.
