526: Chapter 526: Nangong Family Head: Is Achang interested in that woman?
Upon hearing this, Li Manning whispered her complaints, “This is so ticulous.”
She slightly lifted her chin toward Qin Ruan, “I have found the Wu Taoist Priest.
He loiters around the Nangong family’s doorstep all day, and he’s a formidable Puppet.
With my current abilities, I can’t kill him yet.
Do you have any solutions?”
Qin Ruan rested her arm on the armrest of the sofa, circling her fingertips on it.
She spoke casually, “Why use a butcher’s knife to kill a chicken?
The reason I ca to you, in fact, was to deal with this Wu Taoist Priest.”
Li Manning asked, “What do you an?”
“Tell the Wu Taoist Priest about the cause of his master’s death, as well as the Nangong family’s betrayals.
Try your best to lead him to Nangong Chang, or to the current head of the Nangong family.
Afterwards, it’s no longer your concern.”
Qin Ruan’s voice was clear and pleasant, her tone slow, but hinting at danger.
The Wu Taoist Priest was ruthless and heartless.
Even as a Puppet, he could withstand quite a bit.
If he were to find out about the Nangong family’s betrayal, his cunning nature would surely trigger a killing spree.
Don’t bla Qin Ruan for being heartless, pushing the Nangong family towards evil.
If man does not fight for himself, he will be dood.
The existence of the Nangong family poses a potential threat to her.
Li Manning tapped her chin thoughtfully, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
“Are you suggesting using the Nangong family to deal with that Wu Taoist Priest?”
“Wrong,” Qin Ruan corrected, “We need them to kill each other.
Regardless of who loses, it will benefit us.
If the Wu Taoist Priest’s soul scatters and he dies, you can return to the Netherworld sooner.
If the Nangong family loses, I’ll deal with the remaining Wu Taoist Priest, and you can still leave this world sooner.”
After so thought, Li Manning replied decisively, “Deal!”
Her face was in the shape of a lon seed, naturally charming with a touch of freshness and elegance.
As she got what she wanted in the negotiation with Qin Ruan, she couldn’t help but let out a soft smile.
Lin Hao, in the distance, looking at such a beauty as Li Manning, showed no surprise in his eyes.
He even lifted his hand to wipe off the fine sweat on his forehead.
This woman was beginning to look more like a normal human being.
From the mont Li Manning entered the room, he could see her clearly.
He didn’t know whether to say her skills had improved trendously, or his ability to sense Puppets was getting faster.
As they ca to an agreent, Qin Ruan was also in a good mood.
“I wish you luck then.
I hope you can get the Wu Taoist Priest in touch with soone from the Nangong family tonight.”
“No problem.”
Li Manning, eager to see her son in the Netherworld, got up to leave.
As her soul form was slowly floating away, she suddenly turned back.
“How do I contact you once my issue is resolved?
I don’t want to forcefully invade the barrier around the Huo family again.
I was injured all over last ti, and I couldn’t even get in.”
After thinking, Qin Ruan pulled out a talisman from her bag on the sofa.
“This is a communication talisman.
When you co to find , burn it and I will know you’re here.”
It was given to her by Qiao Jiu last ti.
When she received the communication talisman, Qin Ruan thought it was useless.
She didn’t find it very useful at that mont.
But, unexpectedly, it ca in handy this ti.
Li Manning reached out towards the empty air, and the talisman in Qin Ruan’s hand slowly floated towards her.
The scene was eerie and hair-raising.
Once Li Manning took the communication talisman, she left quickly without any delay.
The dark light in the spacious living room restored to its original brightness.
The cold and gloomy atmosphere around also gradually subsided.
Qin i, who was hiding behind Lin Hao, noticed these changes and slowly peered out.
“Is…
the female Puppet gone?”
Upon hearing this, both Qin Ruan and Lin Hao looked at him.
“Second Brother, can you see?”
Lin Hao seed to have found a confidant.
He reached out and grabbed Qin i’s arm.
“Did you see the Puppet just now?”
Qin i blinked, swallowing reflexively.
“I can’t see her clearly.
But when I was holding Xueqiu, I could vaguely see the shadow of the Puppet.
Although I couldn’t make out the features or gender, I could still tell it was there.”
As he spoke, his voice was still trembling.
Qin Ruan’s gaze dropped to the Cat Demon lying in her second brother’s arms.
The cat demon had spiritual abilities, so it didn’t seem a problem for Qin i to vaguely see the Puppet while holding it.
However, with Qin i’s fear of puppets, if he sees puppets regularly in the future, things could go awry.
Qin Ruan said in a deep voice, “Second brother, Xueqiu will accompany you from now on.
If you spend a lot of ti together, you’ll probably see those puppets quite often as well.”
Hearing this, Qin i simply and decisively threw Xueqiu, who was in his arms, out.
The speed at which he threw was incredibly fast.
It was as if he was throwing a ti bomb.
“ow!”
Xueqiu, who was thrown on the ground, turned around, lifted its head, and protested against its owner, Qin i.
You dare to throw this kitty, you stupid owner!
Qin i furrowed his brows as he looked at Xueqiu, his lips trembling as he said, “Then I won’t keep it anymore, it’s too scary.
Just thinking about seeing puppets every day, I will have a ntal breakdown.”
The scene that he imagined in his mind was both bloody and violent.
Young Master Qin wanted to cry but was unable to, feeling utterly wretched.
Qin Ruan spoke to soothe him, “I can eliminate this psychic ability to see puppets between you two, second brother, don’t worry.”
“Really?”
Qin i didn’t know why, but a slight sense of loss surfaced in his heart.
It might actually be nice to seize this opportunity and get rid of this cat demon, Xueqiu.
Regrettably, it didn’t go as he wished.
“Really.”
Qin Ruan bent down and called out to Xueqiu with a wave of her hand.
“Xueqiu, co here.”
“ow—”
Xueqiu was sowhat resistant to Qin Ruan.
However, faced with the dominant glint from the depths of her seemingly smiling eyes, it obediently walked towards her.
What followed was, under the witness of Qin i and Lin Hao.
Qin Ruan picked up Xueqiu from the ground, and with her fingertips, tapped between its eyebrows.
With just a gentle tap, she placed Xueqiu back on the ground.
Qin Ruan lifted her eyes, revealing a pleased smile to Qin i.
“Second brother, the psychic connection between Xueqiu and you has been severed.
You can keep it worry-free now.”
Qin i was thus forced to pick up Xueqiu again.
To get back at its owner, Xueqiu swished its tail forcefully on his arm, showing its discontent at Qin i for throwing it out.
…
Nangong Family, in the study.
“You’re all a bunch of idiots!”
Nangong Yunlong was venting his anger at his subordinates, throwing the file on the table at them.
It’s because he received the news that Huo Yunjiao and Huo Yirong were rushing back from the US.
With this developnt, he would have to be more cautious when dealing with Qin Ruan behind the scenes.
Huo Yunjiao, this younger generation, is not to be ssed with.
His thods were even more ruthless than the elder Huo in his youth.
Despite his gentle appearance, his actions were not to be underestimated.
After speaking with Huo Yunjiao, Nangong Yunlong has been in a state of rage.
The subordinate, whose face was full of paper flung by him, bent down to pick up the papers scattered on the floor.
Nangong Yunlong asked in a deep voice, “How is Achang now?”
The subordinate lifted his head and respectfully replied, “The arm has been reconnected.
He needs to rest for the next three months and cannot lift heavy objects, otherwise, it will cause secondary injury.”
There was sympathy in Nangong Yunlong’s eyes.
His hatred for the people of the Huo Family deepened in his heart.
Especially towards Qin Ruan who had wounded his son, he harbored deep-seated hatred.
His son, whom he loved so dearly over the years, was injured by soone.
This feud is irreconcilable.
If Qin Ruan were in front of him at this mont, he would swiftly snap her neck.
Nangong Yunlong cald his emotions and asked, “Did Achang say anything?”
After hesitating a few seconds, the subordinate said in a low voice, “The young master said he will make Lady Huo wish she was dead, make that woman his servant for life.”
Nangong Yunlong frowned tightly, “Does Achang have an interest in that woman?”
The subordinate nodded, “Yes, after eting Lady Huo at the young master’s wedding, the won he sought after all bore a resemblance to her.”
Nangong Yunlong scornfully remarked, “Once the situation has been settled, what lack of won can there be?
What good can co from soone out of the slums!”
