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

However, Murong Xiao was currently experiencing turmoil and extreme pain, and could not hear the woman's voice at all.

The seal on the Gu worms has begun to loosen and is about to break through.

Mo Nan, the Crown Prince, and some of the experts they brought immediately used their internal and spiritual energy to help suppress Murong Xiao's disordered internal energy.

Meanwhile, the second prince ran to the white-robed man's side, "Cousin, cousin, how are you?"

After being struck by the man in black, Lin Qianjun was sent flying two meters away and collapsed to the ground, coughing up blood. At this moment, he was meditating to regulate his chaotic internal energy.

The woman in black robes saw that none of the people present led a group to chase after the wounded thief, and cursed inwardly: What a bunch of idiots!

But I was also injured at this time, so I had no choice but to take care of my injuries first.

After a while, Mo Bei and Duke Zhen arrived.

Upon seeing Murong Xiao's condition, the old Duke was shocked. He immediately ordered his men to stop and make way for him. He then quickly formed hand seals and placed them on Murong Xiao's back to heal him.

After adjusting herself for a while, the woman in black opened her eyes and saw that the prince and the others were just standing there, showing no intention of arresting the thieves. She was so angry that her blood almost surged up again.

Then I saw that the people from the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice arrived late.

He cursed under his breath, "A bunch of useless trash!"

After glancing at the other two men in black robes, the three exchanged a look. Once they were sure everything was alright, the woman in black robes approached Murong Xiao, crossed her arms, and flipped them up and down, her fingertips dancing as she channeled her spiritual energy to attach the jade pendant to her hands. She then quickly infused her spiritual energy into Murong Xiao's body.

The poison in his body could no longer be suppressed; all that could be done now was to alleviate his suffering.

After Murong Xiao's expression gradually softened, the woman in black stopped what she was doing, turned around and whispered a reprimand in Mo Nan's ear, "Why aren't you sending someone to catch the thieves? Right Prime Minister's residence!"

The last three words were spoken very softly.

After saying that, he immediately leaped away, with the other two men in black robes following closely behind.

When the officials from the Court of Judicial Review saw this, they tried to arrest him, but the Crown Prince immediately shouted, "Stop!"

Mo Nan realized what was happening and immediately whispered in the Crown Prince's ear.

Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince immediately led his men, along with officials from the Court of Judicial Review and the Ministry of Justice, straight to the Right Chancellor's residence.

With the help of Duke Zhen, Murong Xiao's blood and qi finally calmed down, and the Gu poison was temporarily suppressed. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Duke Mo Nan, Duke Mo Bei, and the old man who had made the first move.

Murong Xiao was about to speak, but he felt uncomfortable as soon as he opened his mouth and coughed a few times.

Mo Nan and the others immediately called out with concern, "Master?"

Then they all looked at the old Duke.

The old Duke took Murong Xiao's pulse again, "Young man, don't be hasty!"

Murong Xiao waved his hand and took a breath, "I'm fine. Did they catch the thief?"

Mo Nan replied, "The Crown Prince has already led men to arrest him."

Murong Xiao gave Mo Nan a look that only they understood.

Mo Nan nodded.

At this moment, the Second Prince and Lin Qianjun, who had finished recuperating, came over. The Second Prince asked, "Uncle Prince, are you alright?"

Lin Qianjun also bowed to Murong Xiao and the old Duke, saying, "Yun Heng greets the young master and the old general."

Murong Xiao shook his head at the Second Prince, then nodded at Lin Qianjun.

But it seemed that Duke Zhen did not recognize Lin Qianjun. He glanced at him again but still could not remember whose child he was. So he nodded slightly and called him "Second Prince".

The second prince could tell from the old duke's expression that he didn't remember his cousin, so he introduced him, "Your Excellency, this is my second cousin, Lin Qianjun, courtesy name Yunheng. Today... um..." Then he turned to Lin Qianjun, "Cousin, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at Jade Immortal Mountain?"

Lin Qianjun nodded slightly to everyone, "My master predicted the weather changes not long ago and feared an accident, so he asked me to come down the mountain to help."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud "boom" echoed through the night sky.

In the distance, flashes of lightning continued to streak across the sky, making the dark sky appear to crack open.

Everyone was startled.

The old man glanced at the sky and said to everyone, "A storm is coming, and everyone is injured. I have already instructed my juniors to arrange carriages for you all. Please go back and recover." Then he cupped his hands to Murong Xiao, "Thank you for saving me, Your Highness!"

Murong Xiao shook his head, "Elder Huang, there's no need for that. I should be grateful for your help. That demon is very powerful; I alone am no match for him!"

Old Master Huang remained grateful. “That demon absorbed my grandson’s spiritual power. In recent years, I have neglected my training and have lost my pursuit of martial arts and cultivation of spiritual techniques. In the end, I was no match for the demon. I wonder if the young master knows who that woman in black robes is? I am also very grateful for her help.”

Murong Xiao thought for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know who she is either."

Since that's the case, Old Huang didn't delve any further. He looked at Lin Qianjun with eyes full of admiration, "Young Master Lin, you're so young, yet your skills are remarkable. Your future is limitless! Old Man Lin is truly blessed!"

Lin Qianjun was flattered and bowed slightly to Elder Huang, saying humbly, "Elder Huang, you flatter me. I am unworthy of such praise!"

Old Huang shook his head, "The future of Great Yan needs you young people to protect it! It is also your world!"

Duke Zhen also sized up Lin Qianjun. He was exceptionally handsome, a man of great talent and elegant demeanor. He was indeed a gentleman, just as his name suggested!

More than ten years have passed, and everything and everyone in Yandu City has changed dramatically.

After the two old men finished their reminiscing, the carriage arranged by the Huang family arrived.

Qin Wanyou had just returned to the Ghost Pavilion when she coughed up another mouthful of blood. Qin Jiu and Jin Ling immediately supported her from behind, asking worriedly, "Pavilion Master?"

Qin Wanyou waved her hand, "It's nothing, just a mouthful of blood, I feel much better after spitting it out!"

After changing clothes and taking the specially made medicine from Frost Spirit, dawn had broken, the sky was overcast, and it had started to rain.

Qin Wanyou waited in the living room for news from Tu Mu and his colleague.

Qin Jiu and Jin Ling looked at Qin Wanyou with concern, "Sect Leader, you should rest for a while. We'll call you when Mu Tou comes back."

Qin Wanyou shook her head. "I can't sleep. You're all injured too. Go and rest."

Qin Jiu and Jin Ling naturally stayed with her while she waited.

The Crown Prince led his men to the Right Chancellor's residence to search for the thieves, but the Right Chancellor naturally refused to allow the search at first.

The two sides clashed for a while.

Later, the Crown Prince and the Ministry of Justice officials put on a show of force and threatened Prime Minister Qin, who then agreed to let them search the premises.

The search party naturally headed straight for the East Wing.

However, upon entering the east courtyard of the Right Prime Minister's residence, everyone felt a powerful aura. Only after Prime Minister Qin stepped forward and explained their purpose did the Qin family patriarch retract his imposing manner and approach the Crown Prince and the Minister of Justice.

The Minister of Justice ordered someone to take the pulse of the Qin family's ancestor.

However, no signs of injury were found.

They exchanged a glance, both seeing doubt in each other's eyes. How could this be?

They then searched every corner, but still couldn't find the person with the stab wound to the chest.

In the end, they returned empty-handed.

Just after the Crown Prince and the others left, the Qin family patriarch placed his hand on his chest, blood continuously flowing from the corner of his mouth, and slowly collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with resentment!

At this moment, a figure appeared and stood in front of the Qin family patriarch.
