Seeing that Qin Ling had returned unharmed, Ji He felt a sense of relief.

He then asked, "Honey, where are Jing'er and Ang'er? And my brother-in-law, why haven't I seen them?"

Qin Ling's pupils trembled violently upon hearing this.

"What? Jing'er hasn't come back either? Wasn't he carrying Ang'er's body this way? Qin Jun hasn't come back either?"

Upon hearing Qin Ling's words, Ji He grabbed him.

"What did you say? What corpse?"

Qin Ling recounted how Qin Ang was killed while saving Ji Hong.

Ji He immediately fainted, and Liu Zheng and a group of women rushed over.

Qinling entrusted Jihe to Liuzheng

"Zhengniang, please take care of your aunt for me. I'm going to find your two cousins!"

Qin Liang immediately stopped him.

"Uncle, you wait here, Xiaoqi and I will go!"

Qinling closed his eyes and nodded.

Qin Liang and Qin Xian walked towards the south gate.

Qin Yunyuan didn't speak, silently following behind them...

Qin Ling didn't stop them, and Bai Shao and Qin Yun Ning also came forward to ask how Qin Yi was doing.

Qin Xing didn't answer, and pulled Qin Luo towards the south gate.

Bai Shao stared fixedly at their retreating figures, forcing back her tears.

Qin Yun Ning knew that Qin Yi was probably already dead.

She was worried that Bai Shao wouldn't be able to accept it, so she didn't dare to cry.

All he could do was hold Bai Shao in his arms, offering silent comfort.

Not long after, the Dark Dragon Guards returned, bringing with them not only fire-resistant cloth.

They even brought back Old Zhang the Pockmarked and Old Ma the Granny.

They tossed the fire-resistant cloth aside, and the second brother bowed to the leader of the Dark Dragon Guard and reported.

"Boss, we ran into these two on our way back. They said that if we took them out of the city, they could help us find all the valuables and grain belonging to the villagers of Qixia Village. I recognized the name of the village where the young lord had stayed before, so I brought them back."

The Dark Dragon Guard leader looked at the two timid and submissive people in front of him.

He personally picked them up and threw them in front of Qinling and the others!

"This is a traitor from your village; deal with him yourselves."

Qinling felt an urge to tear Old Lady Ma to pieces when he saw her.

Old Mrs. Ma and Old Zhang were trembling with fear.

They never imagined that those powerful people were actually in cahoots with Qin Ling and his group.

Old Zhang Mazi knelt on the ground as soon as he saw the Qinling Mountains, crying with snot and tears streaming down his face.

"Village chief! Don't blame me, it's her, it's all Ma Xiu's fault, she's the one who harmed the village head, the village head was trying to pull me away!"

Then it pointed to Old Lady Ma.

"She suddenly went crazy and betrayed the village head, saying that the villagers ran away with the grain and that she was helping the thieves catch you. It wasn't me! I didn't say anything. It's all her fault!"

Ignoring the pain in her leg, Old Ma's wife grabbed Old Zhang's hair and started cursing.

"You old fool, you're so quick to deny everything. Didn't you nod when I said those things? What are you pretending to be innocent for now? Let me tell you, if we're going to die, we'll die together. You can forget about living alone!"

Qin Ling didn't want to hear anything more from them, and only glanced at Wang Chang'en.

Wang Chang'en pulled Qin Yunyang and the others around, and Qin Ling understood his meaning.

He picked up a knife and killed Old Lady Ma with one stroke.

Old Zhang, the pockmarked man, was so frightened he wet himself. Qin Ling stared at him coldly.

"Although you didn't directly harm anyone like she did, your evil is even more terrifying. You're the maggot behind the scenes, truly disgusting. Aren't you two supposed to get married? Then go down together!"

After saying that, he also stabbed Old Zhang, and the two of them ended up huddled together.

Mu Xiuyu dragged Wang Chang'en to the body of Granny Ma.

Liu Zheng, Qin Yunyang, and the others followed out of curiosity.

Wang Chang'en was puzzled.

"Xiaoyu, why are you still here? Aren't you scared? Come on, let your brother carry you back!"

Mu Xiuyu rejected him

"Brother Chang'en, I'm not afraid, wait a moment!"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, he pulled back Old Lady Ma's hair bun.

Pull out a strip of cloth that was wrapped around her hair.

Handed to Wang Chang'en

"Brother Chang'en, keep this safe! The silver notes inside should have been yours!"

Qin Yunyang asked him in confusion.

"Xiaoyu, when did you see her hidden silver notes? Why didn't you say so before?"

Mu Xiuyu was still a little angry when he thought about it. He put his little hands in his pockets and pouted.

"It was in the ancestral hall, when she called me a piece of trash, that I was planning to throw stones at her to scare her at night, but I ended up seeing her hiding silver notes!"

Then he looked at Wang Chang'en

"I didn't say anything before because Brother Chang'en is already my aunt's child. It didn't matter if he didn't want the things from bad people. But now that she's dead, the bad people are dead, and the things should be returned to their rightful owners!"

Qin Yunyang gave him a thumbs up

"Xiaoyu is right, Xiaoyu is great!"

Wang Chang'en opened the cloth strip, inside which was a fifty-tael silver note.

He stuffed the silver note into Liu Zheng's hand: "Here you are, Auntie!"

Liu Zheng declined

"Chang'en! You take it yourself, your aunt doesn't want it!"

Wang Chang'en insisted on giving it to her, and Liu Zheng couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she said...

"Then Auntie will keep it for you. Just ask Auntie for it when you need it!"

Wang Chang'en nodded in satisfaction.

The Dark Dragon Guards and the others only wanted to chop Old Lady Ma's corpse into mincemeat.

They actually called their cute and adorable young marquis a piece of trash!

At the leader's single glance, the fifth and sixth brothers carried two corpses and flew up to the city wall.

They were thrown down from the other side of the city wall.

Mu Xiao picked up Mu Xiuyu and wiped his hands.

Twelve also ran over.

"Xiaoyu is so clever! She was the only one who noticed something that no one else did. Xiaoyu is amazing!"

Mu Xiuyu smiled shyly.
