    Chapter Index

    The good atmosphere was instantly spoiled, the flower girls one by one collected their smiles, one moment they were hello sisters, the next moment it was as if they were an army of women who were going to the battlefield, even though their pretty faces were flushed red and charming.

    “Several sisters, since Xu Lang has come to my Green Pond Courtyard today, I’ll be so generous as to leave him to rest, so I hope that sisters will make it easy for me.”

    Do the flower girls make things easy? Of course not!

    Where there is a sisterhood in the Church Department, there is also plastic, can be promoted from ordinary women to flower leader, they secretly pay the effort and sweat, as well as the smooth wisdom in dealing with things, dare to grab and dare to fight attitude, will not allow them to easily concede defeat.

    To Xu Qi’an, this was an opportunity. A chance to detach the Flower Leaders, it was too dangerous for them to continue to stay here, as long as they moved, everyone would have to die under the vibrations of qi.

    And the wookiee is on the side of being a straight-up violent maniac without all the fancy spells.

    To be honest, I kinda enjoy the thrill of this ninjas ….. I think the goddesses in my previous life also felt this way when they raised a spare tire ….. Xu Qi’an coughed and looked around at the women:

    “Miss Ming Yan is too kind to refuse, then, I will rest here tonight. Several ladies go back first, some other time this official will visit them one by one, and I will do as I say.”

    A man’s word in a drink is just as untrustworthy as his word in bed.

    But the master has spoken, what else can they do? This kind of thing can’t be forced.

    Only Fu Xiang looked at Xu Qi An with a miserable face, watering, “Xu Lang ….”

    Although Xu Qi’an’s head was hard, his heart was soft, he wanted to lower his head and drink to ignore it, but seeing her aggrieved look, he said in a bad mood, “You go back first, I’ll come back for you tomorrow.”

    Fuuka gave him a deep look, winced, hid her face, and ran out.

    All the flower girls retired.

    Ming Yan Hua Kui had a fluttering face, rose up and said shyly, “It’s getting late, Mr. Xu come with my slave.”

    …..

    Entering Miss Ming Yan’s boudoir, the room was burning with smokeless beast gold charcoal, sandalwood incense curling up, compared to the elegance of Floating Fragrance’s room, this place was even more opulent.

    The demoness saluted towards Xu Qi’an and obediently said, “The slave girl serves your son in the bath.”

    You rest, I wouldn’t dare let you serve me …. Xu Qi’an shook her head and glanced at Ming Yan Hua Kui, “When I was at the Shadow Plum Pavilion, it was all Floating Fragrance that served me.”

    Bathing together? Ming Yan, as a Flower Leader, hadn’t had this kind of experience, and was both shy and embarrassed for a while.

    With a clench of her silver teeth, she softly said, “He’er, I’ll serve Lord Xu.”

    The fragrant mandarin ducks bath ended, Xu Qi’an put on his robe and white silk pants, and in his heart, he wanted to curse his mother: damn Song Tingfeng, hasn’t he come by now?

    “Mr. Xu, what are you waiting for?” Ming Yan huddled under the covers, a little tiny bit upset.

    She is a woman, some words are not good to say, otherwise it will appear that she is a lustful woman. But there is no way, really have not seen any man into her room, rubbing the knife to rub a quarter of an hour, drink tea to drink a quarter of an hour.

    The comforter is all warmed up for him, and if he doesn’t come he’ll fall asleep himself.

    “The long night is not urgent. This official is thinking about something.” Xu Qi’an pretended to speak without nutrition.

    The afterglow glanced at the demon girl, I won’t move if the enemy doesn’t move, I’ll give her a knife if the enemy dares to move.

    Just as he was thinking this, Xu Qi’an suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, mentally exhausted as if he hadn’t slept for three days, and his eyelids were as heavy as a thousand pounds.

    Poisoned …. His heart was in a state of awe, and he fiercely looked at Ming Yan Hua Kui, realizing that she had fallen into a deep sleep and had not moved.

    “What is Mr. Xu waiting for?” A light laugh came from the maid who had previously lowered her eyebrows, as if she had changed into a different person.

    The eyes were demonic and slutty, staring straight at him in a rather aggressive manner.

    “Who are you, why did you poison, this official has no enmity or grudge against you, poisoning a night watchman is the cardinal sin of plagiarizing a family.” Xu Qi’an pretended to be alarmed and made a test sound.

    “Of course I’m waiting for Lord Xu.” The maid giggled, her face, which could only be considered clear, adding a few moments of sultriness to it.

    “Me?” Xu Qi’an queried.

    He secretly adjusted his breath, but the qi within his dantian was thick as if it was honey and could not be mobilized. The limbs were limp and powerless.

    Damn it, that Sung Ting Fung kid got me into trouble!

    Based on his trust of the night watchman’s yamen, he chose to stay behind and not let go of this opportunity to capture the demoness. And now it seems that Song Tingfeng must have encountered some kind of trouble, or else after such a long time, the teaching department and the Yamen could have made several trips back and forth.

    No sense dragging it out.

    “It’s a long night, and my lady has already gone to sleep, so let the slave girl take her place and take care of Mr. Xu.” The maid walked slowly, taking off a piece of clothing with each step.

    Xu Qi’an was shocked in his heart.

    This was not a fragrant good thing, and after joining the night watchman for so long, he had accumulated his experience and insights rapidly, and knew that many demonesses were good at picking up men and turning them into medicine dregs.

    What happens to the drug slag is usually death.

    What did she poison, sandalwood? Wine? I don’t know much about poison, and that’s not the point …. The real key is that she has already set up the means to deal with me ….. I came to the Department of Education today purely on a whim, it makes no sense for her to know …. Xu Qi An did not understand.

    When the demon girl approached Xu Qi’an three feet closer, a sharp light suddenly burst from his eyes, precipitating all his emotions.

    Medaka!

    The long black and gold blade was sheathed, and a thin line of blade light lit up the room, then went out.

    Without bothering to look at the result, Xu Qi’an erupted his only remaining strength and ran wildly, slamming headfirst into the window.

    He wanted to make a commotion so that outsiders would notice and make the Demoness throw her weight around.

    Plop …. Xu Qi’an fell heavily to the ground, his foot tripping over something.

    It was a thick, long, gray tail, fluffy like a foxtail.

    Xu Qi’an looked back, the maid figure had already disappeared, and in its place was a paper figure chopped in two.

    “Swoosh…” a wet tongue licked at his face, and Xu Qi’an turned his head back inch by inch to see that the maid had appeared behind him at some point.

    Her pupils turned amber as she surveyed him like prey, her tongue deftly licking his face.

    “What an exuberant chakra, I can’t help myself just smelling you.”

    She was telling the truth as Xu Qi’an saw her appearing physical reaction.

    For the first time, I am disgusted with women ….. Xu Qi’an stiffened, the sense of crisis sending him into great anxiety.

    The power that had just erupted was half from potential stimulation and half from chewing on the Power Pill hidden under his tongue.

    Taking the demoness by surprise and attacking her, he wanted to give her a stab, but Xu Qi’an had underestimated his opponent’s strength.

    What to do now? Yelling would surely get you killed in the first place.

    Rolling hard? After all, it’s hard for a fairy to roll over …. Or pull a nice smelling pile of golden duds on her ….

    The demoness smiled as she reached out her fingers and scratched Xu Qi’an’s silk pants …. Just then, her expression suddenly changed as she looked to the side and drank, “Who!”

    “You don’t need to know who I am, because anyone who knows the name of this honored one is dead.”

    A dark shadow appeared in the house at an unknown time, with its back to the two men, dressed in white.

    A low growl came out of the demon girl’s mouth and she showed her teeth towards the white man as she decisively lunged for the window, intending to escape.

    Bang ….

    She hit an invisible wall of air and bounced back.

    “How sad.” The man in white shook his head and sighed in pity.

    He then snapped his fingers, and the formation pattern on the soles of his feet spread, enveloping the demon girl.

    Illusory chains, not real enough to be real, stretched out from within the formation, wrapping around the demon girl’s wrists and ankles, binding her in place, unable to break free no matter how hard she struggled.

    “Stay alive.” Xu Qi’an was afraid that this pushy highlander would make a move to exterminate the demoness.

    The white-robed expert stood with his arms folded and said, “You are Xu Qi’an?”

    “That’s exactly what I am.” Xu Qi’an said, “Senior is ….”

    “Siantian Supervisor Yang Qianyi, you should have heard of me.” The man in white faintly said.

    Sorry, haven’t really heard of it …. Xu Qi’an said indistinctly, “So you, Senior Yang, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

    “Oh?” The white-robed man sounded rather pleased, “It was Senior Sister Caiwei who told you, wasn’t it, or was it that paranoid maniac Song Qing?”

    “Both, both …..” Xu Qi’an guessed that the other party was one of Supervisor Zheng’s disciples.

    “But my fellow notified seniors?”

    “That little gong?” The white-clothed man nodded, “Exactly, he notified the Heavenly Superintendent two incense sticks ago, saying that there were demons here, and I had been outside the courtyard just now.”

    Huh? Then why didn t you make your move earlier …. Xu Qi’an opened his mouth, bewildered.

    As if reading his mind, the man in white let out a “heh” and said, “Real heroes always appear at the end, don’t you think.”

    I think you are a fucking psychopath …. Xu Qi’an nodded with a forced smile.

    Yang Qianyi nodded in satisfaction as well and said in a deep voice, “Ask whatever you want.”

    Xu Qi’an exhaled a breath and sat up trembling, staring at the demoness in the formation, “Are you a remnant of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, or a demon race from the north?”

    The demoness sneered and didn’t say anything.

    The illusory chains suddenly tightened, and an arc of chakra electricity traveled down the demon girl’s body as she screamed in agony, her delicate body spasming.

    “Hey, my self-created torture formation, it can strangle the flesh and Yuan Shen, very few people or demons can withstand such pain.” The man in white stood with his arms folded and said indifferently.

    Extreme fear flowed from the demon girl’s amber-colored pupils.

    “Wan, the Land of Ten Thousand Demons, I’m the fox girl of the Land of Ten Thousand Demons.” She said.

    “Did you guys do the Sampo case?”

    “Yes.”

    “Is Heng Hui one of yours too?”

    “Yes.”

    “What is your purpose.”

    “Blow up the Sampo and release what’s inside.”

    “What’s in there.”

    “I don’t know …. I really don’t know.”

    Xu Qi’an glanced at the man in white, and seeing that he didn’t say anything, he believed the demoness and continued to ask, ”I have three more questions:

    “The first question, since the seal was released, why did you instruct Heng Hui to rebel, kill Uncle Ping Yuan, and attack the Ministry of War’s residence at night.

    “Second question, who are the people you are working with.

    “Third question, why are you targeting me.”

    The demoness hesitated and whispered, ”I don’t know about the first two questions, I lurked in the capital and followed orders, I don’t know anything else.

    “As for dealing with you, I received instructions not long ago to find a way to take the life of Cauldron Xu Qi’an as soon as he enters the Churchyard.”

    The man in white did not speak, Xu Qi An frowned, so the demon race hidden in the Department of Education is this demoness …. The instruction received was to kill me to silence me, and because I am infinitely close to the truth of the case, I intend to erase the threat from the root and eradicate me?

    At least it wasn’t without its rewards, and Heng Hui was really the breakthrough in this case.

    “One last question, is Miss Ming Yan an accomplice.”

    The demon girl sneered, “I would like to say it is ….” The qi arc crackled and exploded, and her face changed drastically as she shook her head, “She doesn’t know anything.”

    “Senior, I’m done asking.” Xu Qi’an said.

    Can this demoness be left to me as a merit …. As he thought this in his heart, he heard the man in white say, “Okay, this demoness is my merit badge, so I’ll take it away.”

    No, you’re not. No, aren’t you a high ranking person, this reply is different from what I thought …. Xu Qi’an replied slightly dumbfounded, “Uh, fine. Also, are there any demons lurking in this place?”

    “When this honored one arrives, the mountains of swords and seas of fire will be turned into a happy land.” Yang Qianyi finished with an arrogant tone and said, “The Church Office is safe.”

    Although he felt that this guy had some brain problems, his strength was not compromised, and Xu Qi’an nodded his head in reassurance.

    “You bow your head for two breaths.” Yang Qianyi suddenly said.

    Xu Qi’an blankly did as he was told, and two breaths later, he raised his head and realized that there was no longer any figure of the man in white.

    After checking that the Ming Yan Hua Kui’s breathing and heartbeat were normal, Xu Qi’an left the Green Pond Courtyard with a question echoing in his head: why did you ask me to bow my head for two breaths?

    Xu Qi’an dragged his tired body into the Shadow Plum Small Pavilion and was guided into the master bedroom to see Fu Xiang, whose eyes had turned into peaches from crying.

    The flower girl sat on the edge of the bed, turned on her side and looked away.

    Xu Qi’an gave her a look and didn’t bother to explain, lifting the quilt to sleep.

    He didn’t want to stay at the Green Pond Courtyard anymore, and he couldn’t go back in the middle of the night, so he could only rest at the Shadow Plum Pavilion.
