Chapter 99 Chu Wanqing Discovered by Ye Qingwu
Chapter 99 Chu Wanqing Discovered by Ye Qingwu
This vixen is acting strangely!
Li Chuqiu looked suspicious: "Why are you asking this out of the blue?"
"Of course, it's out of curiosity—"
Chu Wanqing smiled, but her gaze remained fixed on Li Chuqiu's face: "I've heard that the Crown Princess is beautiful, gentle and refined, with long legs, a large bust, and a pert bottom—"
"When you broke into her room and took her hostage, didn't you have any other thoughts in mind?"
Am I that kind of person?
I knew this vixen wasn't up to any good; she probably suspects him of doing something to the Crown Prince's wife.
In that situation, if she were not careful, her identity would be exposed, and she would be accused of disrespecting the Crown Princess of Prince Jing.
If caught, death is certain.
Li Chuqiu was certainly not stupid; she couldn't possibly have any other thoughts or ideas.
"do not you?"
Chu Wanqing sneered and asked in return, not believing it.
This scoundrel dares to take advantage of her; it's hard to guarantee that he won't have any thoughts or impulses when he sees Song Zhiwei, who is so beautiful that even Chu Wanqing has to admit she's stunning.
That woman is quite charming!
That scoundrel is no gentleman whatsoever!
"?"
Li Chuqiu suspected that this vixen had nothing serious in her head.
"She's the Crown Prince's consort! How much courage do you think I have to harbor any thoughts or intentions towards her?"
"That's not necessarily true."
Chu Wanqing stared at Li Chuqiu. If it were anyone else, she might believe they wouldn't have the guts.
But she didn't believe this guy at all.
That bastard has audacity beyond belief!
Despite his refined appearance, he harbors an adventurous and thrill-seeking impulse—as evidenced by his ability, despite being a mere martial artist, to kill cultivators of higher levels, showing no mercy whatsoever.
This guy is anything but a peaceful person!
"Although she is the Crown Prince's wife, she is powerless and helpless. If she falls into your hands, won't she be at your mercy?"
"Furthermore, as the eldest daughter of the Song family in Jiangnan, and now the heir apparent of Prince Jing, she cares most about her reputation and honor."
In this situation, no matter what you do to her, she probably won't dare to tell anyone.
Chu Wanqing's eyes were full of amusement: "You, really, aren't you tempted?"
She truly lives up to her reputation as a vixen!
Li Chuqiu sighed inwardly; he hadn't really thought that far ahead back then. Now, after hearing Chu Wanqing's analysis, it seemed to make some sense?
Failed!
"Regret it?"
Chu Wanqing keenly noticed the change in Li Chuqiu's eyes, and changed the subject: "—Regretting not making a move against that Crown Princess before?"
"No!"
Li Chuqiu naturally couldn't admit it: "I'm just a lowly constable, how could I dare to have any thoughts about the Crown Prince's wife?"
"Besides, her husband died shortly after her marriage, leaving her a widow on her wedding night—how could I take advantage of her?"
"Isn't this better?"
Chu Wanqing stared at him: "Where is the widow?"
"The Prince Jing's heir died without even seeing his bride once. Doesn't that mean she's still a virgin widow—isn't that a more exciting identity for you men?"
hiss!
This vixen, where does she know so much?!
Meeting Chu Wanqing's meaningful yet intense gaze, Li Chuqiu sensed a hint of danger in her eyes for some reason.
A chilling aura—
"No, why do you seem to really want me to do something to that Crown Princess?"
Li Chuqiu realized what was happening and asked suspiciously, "Are you trying to harm me on purpose, or do you have a grudge against that Crown Princess?!"
Upon hearing Li Chuqiu's words, Chu Wanqing was startled. Was her probing too obvious?
Chu Wanqing pursed her lips and looked away.
"Just think of it as me having a grudge against her."
"Do you know her?"
"I don't know him!"
"Then what makes you have a grudge against her?"
"I'd like to."
"Um?"
Chu Wanqing snorted and made up a reason: "The Prince Jing's heir was killed, and the blame is being pinned on me—since she's the heir's wife, shouldn't we hold her accountable?"
"So you're planning to drag me down with you?"
Chu Wanqing glanced at him: "I'm trying to help you win her over, how could it be harming you—didn't you say that woman tricked you? Don't you want to get revenge on her?"
"—Don't you want to take that busty, curvy, sweet-voiced, pretty widow to bed and 'get' your revenge?!"
The voice remained seductive, carrying a hint of enticement.
Li Chuqiu: "————"
Women really know how to get revenge!
These were all angles that Li Chuqiu had never considered—and they were incredibly alluring.
Her description reminded Li Chuqiu of her brief encounter with the Crown Prince's wife that day.
The Crown Princess looked delicate and frail, and under her disguise, she presented herself as an innocent little white rabbit, a pure and innocent image.
As for her figure—it truly does seem to be as described by the enchantress before him, with a curvaceous figure. In terms of size, it seems to be comparable to the enchantress's?
Hmm—they do seem to be about the same size?
Chu Wanqing originally wanted to test whether Li Chuqiu had any feelings for Song Zhiwei, but as she asked, she suddenly noticed that Li Chuqiu's gaze was fixed on her with a somewhat malicious intent.
"What are you looking at?!"
"It's up to you."
Chu Wanqing was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Li Chuqiu to be so blunt. A look of embarrassment and annoyance appeared on her face, followed by an angry retort: "Who gave you permission to see that?"
"Just because someone's good-looking doesn't mean we can't look at them?"
Chu Wanqing, who was initially a little annoyed, immediately calmed down upon hearing these words.
She glared at him, annoyed. "Your praise won't help—if you dare look again, I'll gouge your eyes out!"
She's incredibly provocative, but you can't even look at her.
Li Chuqiu withdrew her gaze, too lazy to pay any more attention to this vixen.
Chu Wanqing seemed to be in a better mood and stopped worrying about Song Zhiwei.
He glanced at Li Chuqiu and said, "By the way, didn't you say you needed my help with something? Tell me about it?"
"Didn't you say you wouldn't help?"
"I didn't say I'd help—tell me what it is!"
Chu Wanqing crossed her arms and glanced at him sideways.
There's a hint of arrogance in it.
Since she asked, Li Chuqiu didn't stand on ceremony: "Help me kill someone."
"Who to kill?"
"Xu Guanlan".
"Who is Xu Guanlan?" Chu Wanqing thought for a moment but couldn't recall such a person.
"He just arrived from the capital today—the eldest son of the Xu family from the capital, supposedly to investigate the assassination of Prince Jing's heir—"
Li Chuqiu briefly introduced Xu Guanlan's background: "Those two assassins just now were sent by him."
Now that she had already broken ties with Xu Guanlan, Li Chuqiu naturally had no intention of sitting idly by and waiting for her fate.
With his current strength, killing Xu Guanlan would naturally be difficult. The only way is to call for outside help—and the enchanting Chu woman before him is a rather good ally.
After listening, Chu Wanqing's alluring eyes revealed a hint of suspicion: "Since he just came from the capital, how did you get involved with him?" "That's a long story—"
Li Chuqiu didn't explain much, but looked at Chu Wanqing: "In short, I killed his men tonight, so he definitely won't let me go. It'll inevitably be a fight to the death—do you think you can find a way to help me kill him?"
As the Holy Maiden of the Fox Demon Clan, Chu Wanqing was naturally someone Li Chuqiu wanted to use to frame the demon clan for Xu Guanlan's death, thus deceiving everyone.
But Chu Wanqing was clearly not so easily fooled. She glanced at Li Chuqiu and asked, "What is Xu Guanlan's strength?"
"He's just a spoiled brat, barely at the sixth realm. With your strength, dealing with him will be a piece of cake."
"Don't try to fool me—how many experts does he have around him? A scion of a powerful family like him must have experts protecting him, right?"
Chu Wanqing crossed her arms, squeezing her chest to make it appear fuller, and looked at him with a cold smile.
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from the Holy Maiden."
"—Ha, I knew you wanted to harm me too!"
Having her thoughts read, Li Chuqiu wasn't guilty: "Xu Guanlan has an old man protecting him, so his strength shouldn't be particularly strong. I heard he's only around the fifth realm, and I'm not sure if he's reached the fourth realm—I suppose not."
"only?"
Chu Wanqing sneered, "You call the Fourth Realm 'just'?"
"Do you even know what the Fourth Realm means?!"
Li Chuqiu said, "A mere fourth realm cultivator is utterly insignificant before you, Holy Maiden."
"Ha, no matter how much you praise me, it's useless!"
Chu Wanqing glanced at him: "You can't beat him!"
"Even ten of me combined wouldn't be a match for someone at the fourth realm. Luckily, I didn't fall for your trick; you really did set a trap for me!"
If it were the fifth realm, Chu Wanqing might still be able to reluctantly consider it.
The Fourth Realm?
With her current strength, she is no match for him at all.
Chu Wanqing's inability to defeat Xu Guanlan was naturally within Li Chuqiu's expectations. He hadn't expected Chu Wanqing to be able to kill Xu Guanlan alone: "You definitely can't do it alone, but I'm here, aren't I?"
"you?"
Chu Wanqing scrutinized Li Chuqiu from head to toe for a while, and couldn't help but ask, "Is there a big difference between having you here and not having you?"
"They say you demons aren't very bright, and they're right."
Li Chuqiu sighed.
Chu Wanqing glared angrily: "Who are you insulting?"
Use your brain! Think before you act!
Li Chuqiu pointed to his head: "In a head-on collision, even if the two of us combined, we definitely wouldn't be a match. So, we need to use our brains and devise a plan—since neither of us is a match for that old man by his side, let's think of a way to lure him away from his prey—"
"Have you thought all the plans through?"
No, not at all.
Li Chuqiu only had a preliminary plan in mind, but it wasn't foolproof. She needed to discuss it thoroughly with Xu Jinghong tomorrow to be certain: "However, if you can find a way to lure that old bastard away from him, I have a way to kill him!"
Chu Wanqing sneered: "You want me to lure away the Fourth Realm cultivator? What's the difference between that and sending me to my death?"
"You can always get help!"
"Where would I get any help?"
"Aren't you the Holy Maiden of the Fox Demon Clan? Doesn't your demon clan have any subordinates? A Holy Maiden, don't you even have any underlings? At the very least—don't you have a master?"
Li Chuqiu's face was full of hope: "I heard that your master is a great demon of the Upper Three Realms—with her taking action, killing a Fourth Realm cultivator is a piece of cake, isn't it?"
Chu Wanqing was taken aback, finally realizing what was going on: "So you're after my master?"
"So that's why you asked me for help. Your real purpose was to scheme against my master?"
"How can this be called scheming?"
Li Chuqiu said seriously, "Besides, this matter is somewhat related to you as well."
Chu Wanqing sneered, "What does this have to do with me?"
"Xu Guanlan is the person in charge of the investigation into the assassination of Prince Jing's heir, sent by the imperial court. Now there are rumors that you killed Prince Jing's heir. Do you think he will investigate you? Search for and arrest you?"
"What if they can't find the culprit later, and the imperial court uses you as a scapegoat? To give the Prince Jing's mansion an explanation, do you think the court might issue an arrest warrant and ruthlessly kill your fox demon clan?"
"Rather than letting you and your master suffer an undeserved calamity later, it's better to just kill him now and be done with it!"
Chu Wanqing:
It sounds like it does have something to do with her?
Chu Wanqing stared at him: "In the end, aren't you just trying to use me and my master?!"
"How can this be called taking advantage of someone? Besides, you caused me so much trouble last time, shouldn't you make it up to me?"
"When have I ever caused you any suffering?"
"Last time in the underground palace, you stole someone's elixir, which really got me into trouble."
Li Chuqiu mentioned the matter of the old man in black robes: Chu Wanqing insisted on snatching the old man's pills, which caused that old man to come to his door to cause trouble.
If it weren't for that powerful senior's intervention, Li Chuqiu would probably be half-crippled if not dead.
Upon hearing Li Chuqiu mention this matter, Chu Wanqing blinked, clearly not expecting that taking that pill would cause Li Chuqiu such a big problem.
Feeling somewhat guilty, but still stubbornly insisting, "Didn't I already give you the pill?!"
"Is this what I want?"
"I don't want you to pay me back!"
"That's not the point. The point is you almost killed me, shouldn't you compensate me?!"
Li Chuqiu looked at her with a self-righteous air.
The two locked eyes.
Chu Wanqing felt even more guilty.
She slightly shifted her gaze, avoiding looking at Li Chuqiu: "Hmph, you're just trying to scheme against me—"
"I can agree to help you with this, but don't even think about it with my master—I don't know where he is."
o
"You don't know your master's whereabouts?"
Li Chuqiu asked in surprise, "Where is your sect?"
"Do you think this is some human sect?"
Chu Wanqing rolled her eyes again.
The demon race is universally hated and considered a thorn in the side by the imperial court, so they only dare to operate in the shadows. These small demon clans aren't even considered sects; they rely solely on bloodline inheritance, and their strongholds and hiding places are not fixed.
Chu Wanqing has had no news of her master for almost a year.
Li Chuqiu felt a pang of regret.
"Don't even think about it. Even if my master really comes, you'll be the first person he kills!"
Chu Wanqing saw through Li Chuqiu's thoughts and said irritably.
"Why would you kill me? I haven't offended your master."
"Didn't I tell you? My master hates fair-skinned, delicate men like you who lie and deceive women!"
Li Chuqiu suddenly remembered that this demoness's master seemed to have some aversion to men?!
He asked, puzzled, "Was your master hurt by a handsome man like me, and suffered heartbreak, which is why he has a problem with good-looking people like us?"
"Pooh!"
Chu Wanqing spat in annoyance, thinking, "This dog of a man is really shameless."
"My master has never suffered heartbreak, but—"
Chu Wanqing seemed to remember something: "My master once had a disciple who was deceived by a scoundrel like you with sweet words."
Li Chuqiu chuckled: "Isn't it because your master suffered a heartbreak? Then isn't she just being a busybody?!"
Li Chuqiu wanted to say something about meddling, but was intimidated by Chu Wanqing's gaze.
"Hmph, what do you know? My master painstakingly trained a disciple, only to have him deceived, losing both his body and soul, and ultimately even his life—"
Chu Wanqing didn't say anything more, but only glanced at Li Chuqiu: "Anyway, you better be careful. If my master sees you one day, you'll definitely be in big trouble!"
Li Chuqiu seemed to be deep in thought. So this is what feelings are all about.
Chu Wanqing glanced at the night view outside the window, then stood up: "I'm leaving!"
"She just left?" Li Chuqiu didn't expect her to leave so suddenly.
"What? You really want me to stay and wait for your senior colleague?"
Li Chuqiu sensed her sarcastic tone: "I have no objection if you want to, just don't cause trouble."
"Ha, I'm not stupid!"
If Li Chuqiu were to send her away, Chu Wanqing would really not leave.
But since he had such a clear conscience and let her stay, Chu Wanqing was certain that he wasn't messing around with other random women, so she felt relieved.
Regardless of that so-called female senior's background, she is still a powerful human being. It's simply inappropriate for a demoness like her to stay here.
Humans and demons are irreconcilable enemies. Staying here is not only dangerous, but may also bring trouble to Li Chuqiu.
Therefore, Chu Wanqing did not linger. After getting the answer she wanted from Li Chuqiu that night, she got up and left satisfied.
Before long, the figure disappeared into the courtyard.
After Chu Wanqing left, Li Chuqiu felt a little hungry. She got up and went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles. After finishing the noodles and washing the dishes, she returned to the courtyard and glanced at the sky.
It's already late at night!
But there was still no movement in the courtyard.
Is that senior not coming tonight?
Li Chuqiu felt a little regretful and was about to turn around and go back to her room when a silent atmosphere enveloped the courtyard.
As if sensing something, Li Chuqiu turned around.
Then, in the previously dark courtyard ahead, a cold and aloof figure appeared.
Standing in the courtyard in a blue Taoist robe, fluttering in the wind, he exuded a dignified and elegant air, yet also a kind of indescribable arrogance.
Li Chuqiu was overjoyed upon seeing this.
"Senior, you've arrived?!"
"Um."
Ye Qingwu landed in the courtyard, glanced at Li Chuqiu, and gave a lukewarm "hmm".
Suddenly, as if she had noticed something, her gaze sharpened, and she abruptly looked up in a direction outside the courtyard.
His eyes instantly revealed their sharpness.
"What kind of monster is this?!"
At the same time, not far away, Chu Wanqing, who was hiding in the shadows, suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
Shocking!
This was discovered?!
She originally intended to hide in the shadows and see what kind of background the female senior Li Chuqiu had mentioned was—not that she didn't trust Li Chuqiu, but she was simply curious.
Okay, I do find it hard to believe!
So she quietly concealed her presence and lay in wait in the shadows. After a long while, she finally saw a figure land in Li Chuqiu's courtyard.
Chu Wanqing focused her gaze, but before she could get a clear look at the other person's appearance, she was discovered by them.
The next instant, a terrifying and chilling aura swept over us.
The oppressive atmosphere was overwhelming!
Chu Wanqing's face turned pale instantly, and she was horrified.
This aura is indeed from the Upper Three Realms—or perhaps even higher!
Such power and aura were definitely beyond her ability to contend with.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chu Wanqing unleashed her full demonic power, using her movement technique to transform into a shooting star and flee into the distance.
At the same time, Ye Qingwu, who was in the courtyard, sensed this demonic aura. The moment he looked up, his figure blurred. The next second, he arrived at the place where Chu Wanqing had just been hiding.
She stared intently in the distant direction where Chu Wanqing had fled.
"You run pretty fast!"
Ye Qingwu spoke coldly, not chasing after them, but her brows furrowed slightly.
"Strange, why does this feel so familiar?"
