”Huff... huff... huff…”

Qin Tian walked down the road alone, looking up at the flying beast soldiers in the distant sky searching meticulously, his heart hanging by a thread.

”Those flying beast soldiers are searching through the distant residential areas; why is no one daring to come near this large courtyard?”

He noticed that the courtyard beside him was not being searched by any flying beast soldiers.

Qin Tian examined it for a moment, finding the courtyard beside him to be very quiet, as if there were no guards at all.

Seeing that the flying beast soldiers’ reconnaissance range was about to discover him, panic surged in his heart, and without further thought, he activated Gale Illusion, and under the cover of a large tree, he leapt into the courtyard!

”Ugh...”

As he flipped into the courtyard and landed, Qin Tian felt his left shoulder go numb, then his head spun, and a sharp pain hit his chest!

”The poison acted up; if I weren’t injured, I could definitely cure it, but now...”

Qin Tian leaned against a tree in the corner of the courtyard, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Earlier, he had used up a large amount of True Qi while carrying Xu Junwei out of the Soul Suppressing Hall in a mad dash. At the time, amidst the fighting, he didn’t feel anything, but now that he relaxed, his body felt utterly exhausted, his Dan Tian Qi Sea feeling utterly empty.

”This place is... why does it feel like I’ve been here before?”

Surveying the courtyard’s surroundings, Qin Tian felt a strong sense of familiarity.

”This place is...”

”Here...”

Qin Tian thought of something, but his mind felt incredibly heavy, his mouth slightly opened, and before he could speak, he collapsed...

About half an hour later, Qin Tian slowly woke up.

However, the first thing he noticed upon waking was that he was on a bed, and he froze.

Just as he was about to get up, he realized his shoulder had been bandaged, and beside the bed sat a familiar figure, seemingly handling the aftermath of detoxification.

This figure was dazzlingly beautiful, and just her silhouette left Qin Tian awestruck.

”Fei Teacher... Did you... help me detoxify?”

This was Feili Xue’s residence, Qin Tian remembered.

”Yes, the poison wasn’t potent, so it didn’t take much time.” Feili Xue turned around, smiled at Qin Tian with dazzling beauty, ”I didn’t expect you to end up in my courtyard. I invited you before, but you wouldn’t come. This time you came uninvited...”

Qin Tian smiled awkwardly without explaining, not knowing what to say.

”Were you being hunted?” Feili Xue asked.

Qin Tian pursed his lips; he absolutely couldn’t tell anyone about this, especially since Feili Xue’s background from the Imperial City was still unclear.

Seeing Qin Tian’s silence, Feili Xue said casually, ”Whatever you’re involved in, don’t tell me, I’m not interested. I just want to tell you, rest assured, those flying beast soldiers don’t dare linger around my home. You can recuperate peacefully.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Tian was taken aback, exchanging a glance with Feili Xue, immediately understanding that she at least knew those flying beast soldiers were chasing him.

Given Feili Xue’s intelligence, she could probably deduce more, but Qin Tian wouldn’t care even if she knew everything, he would never openly admit it.

”Fei Teacher, thank you, I owe you yet another favor, or rather, a life. I won’t say much now; in the future, if you need anything, I will do my utmost to help,” Qin Tian expressed his gratitude.

Feili Xue nodded, ”Just remember what you said today. For the two favors, perhaps one day I will really need you to repay them.”

Qin Tian chuckled, suddenly serious as he recalled something, ”Excuse me, I need to change clothes and return home briefly. Fei Teacher, could you step outside for a moment?”

”Of course.” Feili Xue left the room.

Qin Tian quickly changed his clothes in the room and stepped out to find it was already dusk, making him even more anxious.

With such a big incident at the Soul Suppressing Hall, the City Guard Army would likely hold an emergency meeting. Qin Tian was responsible for guarding the East Gate, and if he missed the meeting, it would be troublesome!

He hurriedly bid farewell to Feili Xue and ran towards the Qin residence.

...

Meanwhile, at the Qin residence, Xiao Zhuang and the others were looking for Qin Tian.

Similarly, the maid Yun Luo was waiting for news.

Nearly a day’s time had passed, and the young master had not returned. Could it be... that he was really killed by Nangong Bingfeng?

At the thought of Qin Tian being dead, Yun Luo felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart.

”Young master, I’m sorry, Yun Luo was also forced, I am just a humble servant...”

She muttered quietly, deciding to head to the City Lord Mansion.

However, just as Yun Luo stepped out of the Qin residence, a voice called out: ”Daughter! Yun Luo, save me!”

Hearing this, Yun Luo turned, seeing three people waiting by the side of the Qin residence’s gate, one of whom was her gambling-addicted father, Yun Dahai.

These three had been waiting at the Qin residence, and when they saw Yun Luo come out, Yun Dahai hurried over to her, with the other two following closely.

”See? I told you, my daughter is a servant to the East Gate General Qin Tian of the City Guard Army. Did you see it now? I wasn’t lying!”

Yun Dahai mumbled, walking to Yun Luo with the other two.

Yun Luo, burdened with many worries, furrowed her brows upon seeing her father, angrily asking, ”Father, how much did you lose again!?”

”Hehe, daughter, not much, just a thousand High Grade Spirit Stones... hehe, today your dad was just a little short, just a little short of winning big! Just a bit of bad luck...”

”A thousand High Grade Spirit Stones!”

Yun Luo was dumbstruck, saying, ”The hundred Mid Grade Spirit Stone reward I got last time, you lost it all in less than ten days?”

”Hehe, these days I’ve been playing at the City Lord Mansion’s housekeeper’s casino, they play big there. A few days ago, I won half a courtyard... was planning to win the whole place, but then my luck turned bad!”

”Father! The money I earned so hard, you just... I told you not to gamble! I, I don’t have that many Spirit Stones...”

”Yun Luo, enough chit-chat! You know the housekeeper’s temper; if your father doesn’t have the money today, the housekeeper will chop off his hands! Hmph, didn’t expect you to be a maid at the Qin residence... General Qin Tian is quite influential now, a thousand High Grade Spirit Stones is nothing to him, right?”

”But I’m just a servant... my lifetime salary doesn’t amount to a thousand High Grade Spirit Stones...”

”We don’t care about that, if you don’t have the Spirit Stones today, your father is finished!” The housekeeper’s underling Zhao San said smugly, playing with a dagger.

”You all... You all... I will go to the Master! Don’t touch my father, I’ll go to the Master!”

Yun Luo knew the City Lord Mansion’s housekeeper was a vampire, unreasonable, so she could only head tearfully towards City Lord Nangong Minghua.
