The Deepest Affection in Qin's Time

Jingni shook her head.

"It's not him, I'm very familiar with his scent."

She gave Li Wu a wink, then disappeared into the shadows.

As a former top-tier assassin, stealth and assassination were almost instinctive for him.

Li Wu understood, and like Li Wu, slipped into the shadows and disappeared.

Only Xiao Mengjiang was left lying on the couch, fast asleep.

Yan Lingji easily slipped into the mansion, a smile appearing on her beautiful face.

That little man certainly never expected that Yan Lingji would come back to kill him!

The courtyard was small. After Yan Lingji slipped through the door and picked the lock, she checked the two small dark rooms as if they were empty.

Finally, Yan Lingji stopped in front of a house.

The room was filled with only a tiny, dim light, no bigger than a bean candle.

"Looks like it's in this house..."

Yan Lingji muttered something to herself, then leaped and scaled the walls to reach the rooftop.

She quietly lifted the tile, revealing a crack.

The room was quiet, with flickering candlelight.

Yan Lingji held her breath and observed carefully, when she suddenly noticed a girl lying on the bed, fast asleep.

Where is that guy... Yan Lingji wondered.

Did she go to the wrong place?

Yan Lingji thought back for a moment and confirmed it again and again.

"That's right, this is the place..." Yan Lingji wondered.

She thought for a moment, then rolled over and landed on her feet. She quietly pushed open the door, intending to go in and check on the situation.

But the moment Yan Lingji pushed open the door and stepped inside, she saw a woman in a purple dress looking at her with a mocking smile.

not good!

The next moment, just as Yan Lingji was about to unleash her power, she felt a sharp headache, her vision went black, and she rolled her eyes and fainted.

Chapter 122 Torture of Yan Lingji

"Ouch~ That hurts~"

Li Wu gasped and helped the unconscious Yan Ling Ji say what she wanted to say.

But the smile on his face, no matter how you looked at it, seemed to have a hint of schadenfreude.

Jing Ni held the scabbard of the Jing Ni Sword in both hands, looking at Yan Ling Ji lying on the ground with some confusion.

"who is she?"

Li Wu glanced at Yan Lingji, who was standing on the ground and whose beauty made her feel a little jealous, and couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Who knows? Maybe it's one of his little lovers coming over again."

Jing Ni nodded in agreement.

That's why she didn't kill her, but only knocked her unconscious.

That guy's always chasing after women; I bet one of his lovers came looking for revenge.

"Um..."

Lying on the ground, Yan Lingji instinctively let out a groan.

She was, after all, a half-step Grandmaster, and because Jing Ni hadn't gone all out, she soon showed signs of waking up.

Li Wu swiftly grabbed Cao Yuan's smelly socks from the side, which he had just changed out of yesterday, and stuffed them into Yan Ling Ji's mouth.

What is this smell...? A strange smell assaulted Yan Lingji's skull, almost suffocating her.

However, before Yan Lingji could vomit, she felt another headache and fainted.

Li Wu looked at Jing Ni's nonchalant manner and clicked her tongue in amazement.

As she found a rope and tied Yan Lingji up tightly, she thought to herself: "Lady Jingni's technique for ambushing people is getting more and more skillful."

The commotion inside the house startled the sleeping Meng Jiang.

She rubbed her eyes, staring blankly at Yan Lingji lying motionless on the ground, and asked in confusion, "Sister Li Wu, who is she? Why is she lying on the ground?"

Li Wu moved Yan Lingji to the pillar and tied her hands and feet. Then she said to Xiao Mengjiang, "She must be your brother's lover. She sneaked in in the middle of the night."

Little Meng Jiang looked at Yan Ling Ji, who was hanging her head and not moving, and exclaimed, "Wow, what a beautiful older sister!"

Jing Ni went up to check on Yan Ling Ji's condition and sealed her meridians to prevent her from escaping.

Li Wu moved a small table over, placed it in front of Yan Ling Ji, and sat down.

"Lord Jing Salamander, interrogation?"

Jingni nodded. "Alright."

Then Jing Ni flicked her finger, shooting out a burst of energy that struck Yan Ling Ji.

"Mmm~"

Yan Lingji suddenly woke up with a soft moan, breathing heavily in the fresh air.

She soon found herself bound hand and foot, her body limp and powerless, unable to struggle or move, her full breasts heaving violently, and red marks left on her snow-white skin by the ropes.

She suddenly raised her head.

When she saw the woman in the purple dress with her long legs crossed, smiling at her, she widened her eyes.

Then his gaze shifted to the tall woman in the blue-green dress next to the woman in the purple dress.

In just a moment, she realized that she had been tricked and caught!

She just couldn't understand it.

With my own strength, how could I fall for their tricks so easily?

She was at the peak of the half-step Grandmaster realm, just a hair's breadth away from becoming a Grandmaster.

Could the woman who knocked him unconscious be a Grandmaster-level expert?

how can that be!

Grandmaster-level experts aren't like cabbages; you can't just encounter them anywhere.

Just as Yan Lingji was about to open her mouth to question him, she realized that her mouth was stuffed with an unknown wad of cloth, and she couldn't make a sound at all.

Hmm? What's that smell...?

She suddenly widened her crystal-clear, azure eyes and looked at Li Wu and Jing Ni with grief and indignation.

At this moment, she was not indignant about being knocked unconscious, captured, tied up, or unable to make a sound.

But the taste in my own mouth was disgusting!

I don't know which bastard stuffed those stockings in there, they stink so bad!

Ahhh! ! !

Yan Lingji is practically going crazy!

My Daoist heart is shattered, and I have no will to live!

Jingni and Liwu exchanged a glance as they watched Yanlingji's expression constantly changing, as if she were constipated.

Is this girl out of her mind?

Just as they were about to ask a question, Yan Lingji suddenly rolled her eyes and fainted again.

Jingni and Liwu looked at each other in bewilderment.

"This..." Li Wu said, "Lord Jingni, should we wake her up?"

Jingni shook her head slightly, "Never mind, let's wait until he comes back."

Li Wu nodded, glanced at the slightly loose sock belonging to Cao Yuan in Yan Ling Ji's mouth, casually pulled it off, then stuffed it back in, and tightened it further inside.

After everything was done, she smiled with satisfaction, then took the still sleepy-eyed Xiao Mengjiang to bed.

Cao Yuan, who was having a casual chat with Zi Nu at Zi Lan Xuan, was unaware that there was already another person in his backyard.

He probably never imagined that Yan Lingji would sneak into his mansion in the middle of the night.

Otherwise, he would have to offer Yan Lingji a toast first; she's a real talent!

However, he doesn't have that skill yet.

Because he and Zi Nu were exchanging grievances and digging into each other's pasts.

"Miss Zi Nu has established Zi Lan Xuan at a young age, making it the best in Xinzheng. Even the night cannot touch it. It seems that Miss Zi Nu is not simple."

"Hehe~ Sir, you flatter me. How could I possibly deserve such praise? I am merely using the name of Guiguzi to make a living in Xinzheng. On the contrary, you are truly a man of profound knowledge, not only having a thorough understanding of the world's affairs but also being extremely familiar with the situation in Xinzheng. Are you really just a locksmith from Linzi in Qi?"

"Hey~ To be honest, Miss Zi Nu, I really am a locksmith."

……

Cao Yuan and Zi Nu kept exchanging barbs, neither revealing any weaknesses in the face of each other's probing, nor showing much of their true abilities.

"This Cao Yuan has a mysterious background and an enigmatic past; he is no ordinary person..." Zi Nu thought to herself.

She had already inquired about Cao Yuan from Han Fei.

However, aside from some things that are widely known, nothing else is known.

At least no one knows who Cao Yuan was before he went to Linzi.

His mysterious teacher Wang You, his senior brother Zhu Xi, his second senior brother Wang Yangming, and so on, are all unknown to anyone.

Apart from the few works expounded by Cao Yuan.

"Miss Zi Nu is indeed a master of intelligence; I admire her."
