Qi Xiaomian judged by experience that it would be difficult to go out in the next few days. Not only had the soldiers of the entire state capital been mobilized, but the Yue Governor had also summoned troops from surrounding counties into the city. In the following days, house-to-house searches would likely become even more frequent.
Is Zhu Gonggong also in Huzhou City? There won't be any issues on his side during the searches, right?
My people can disguise themselves; it's not hard to fool them.
That's good. Sang Qingxiao leaned in closer and asked, when you sneak into Zhu Gonggong's place at night, you won't happen to kill that young master from the Yue Family, will you?
What nonsense are you thinking? Qi Xiaomian chuckled. I have no grievances with him; why would I kill him?
Just checking. Have you heard about how he died?
Wearing a wedding dress?
Sang Qingxiao nodded. That kind of death is quite interesting, isn't it? Once your people are lurking in the city, have they seen anything unusual?
No. If they could evade my Ears and Eyes, then the murderer must be someone extraordinary.
I heard that similar Men's Wedding Dress Cases have occurred in surrounding counties before.
Are you concerned about this case?
Just curious. If you could spare a bit of manpower to help gather some information from those surrounding counties, that would be great.
Qi Xiaomian agreed.
After he dealt with the poison in his body and left the room, Old Vine patted his chest and exclaimed, "I can't believe I just hit a demon on the forehead! What a bold move! I've always played it safe before, but meeting you, Little Girl, made me do something so reckless!"
I was stunned when you hit him on the forehead too.
Aren't you afraid he might retaliate? We should keep our distance from this Demon King; he's truly worrisome.
Can we really keep our distance? He probably thinks you're teaching him a lesson. From now on, show some respect to the elder; give him a pat every now and then; maybe he'll get used to it.
Oh dear, Old Vine continued patting his small chest. No, no! I won't do it again!
Muttering to himself, he climbed up to the beams and found a hidden spot to comfort himself.
As for Sang Qingxiao, he laughed at Old Vine for making a big deal out of nothing. The two exchanged banter until Li Cu returned, at which point they stopped their pointless argument.
Li Cu came back with drooping ears.
Looks like you've lost.
It was easy to imagine the outcome. Li Cu nodded absentmindedly, jumping into Sang Qingxiao's arms, rolling around while seeking comfort. Despite scratching for an entire night, not a single corner of his clothing was torn.
Was he really that impressive? He didn't even engage with me directly; he just sat there and created an illusion, leaving me completely bewildered.
An illusion, huh? Old Vine could do that too. Old Vine swung his legs from the rafters.
But it felt different; his was more real and more powerful. Not only did I fail to touch the hem of his clothes, but I also ended up putting on a show for him as I flailed about. He watched with amusement while I was exhausted and embarrassed.
Sigh, this battle was utterly pointless, and I felt helpless.
So it turns out he was just a demon who could weave illusions. Did you manage to uncover his true form? Li Cu lamented again, saying that he hadn't even touched the hem of the other’s clothes. After just a few attempts, he had panicked and revealed his true self, and the other had the audacity to mock him for being overweight!
