Chapter 295 My half-brother's life is hanging by a thread! Luo'er finds her missing aunt?

Granny Deng could only hold onto the butterfly, and then let Li Qingluo carry Li Jingchuan down the mountain alone.

Although it was tiring, the mountain path was not too difficult to traverse, and halfway there they encountered Nangong Di and his group who were leading people up the mountain in search of something.

Nangong Di breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing his disciple unharmed, but then he heard Li Qingluo say, "Master, Luo'er must return to Jingyun Manor again!"

Nangong Di: ?

What is she going to do to join in this fun?

Li Qingluo: "Master, I promised this young master, and I cannot go back on my word."

Nangong Di could only sigh, "Master will accompany you, let's go!"

Nangong Di came over and helped Li Jingchuan, who was almost unconscious, to his feet. Seeing his condition, he simply carried him on his back.

The group quickly headed down the mountain.

Who is this person?

Nangong Di carried it with ease, but it was strange that this person was so tall yet so agile.

Like a feather.

Li Qingluo: "It has a close relationship with Jingyun Manor."

As for that unverified matter, Li Qingluo dares not speak recklessly at the moment.

Nangong Di frowned slightly: "Then you still want to personally send him back? Aren't you afraid that he'll collude with someone from the inside to trick you again?"

Li Qingluo: "That is indeed possible."

but……

"My disciple only asks that I have a clear conscience."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Di laughed heartily: "Good disciple. We will not do anything against our conscience, but we are not afraid of trouble either. We only ask that we have a clear conscience."

"Today, Master has truly accepted you as my last disciple, Nangong Di. From now on, follow Master and learn martial arts diligently."

"Wherever your master is in this life, he will protect you and keep you safe."

Li Qingluo was so happy that he immediately knelt down on the spot: "Disciple thanks Master for your teachings!"

Jingyun Manor.

Amidst the fierce fighting, some houses in the mountain villa caught fire and were quickly engulfed in flames.

Li Qingluo and his group sneaked back into Jingyun Manor in the dark. Seeing the corpses strewn all over the ground and the blood staining the earth, they couldn't help but feel a chill.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Prince Su was determined to avenge the previous attack by the Lotus Sect. Therefore, apart from the Night Slayer Sect that Li Qingluo wanted to test, the rest of the troops here tonight were soldiers that the imperial court had already laid in ambush.

As for how these soldiers came to be, and how a prince who was confined to his room to reflect on his mistakes could mobilize them, Li Qingluo would not ask, and Duan Rongshi would not say.

In order to avoid being accidentally injured, Li Qingluo had to shake Li Jingchuan awake.

"Young Master Jingchuan, Young Master Jingchuan?"

As soon as Li Jingchuan regained consciousness, Li Qingluo immediately asked, "Where do you want to find your medicine? Tell us, and we'll take you there!"

When Li Jingchuan saw that she had indeed led him back to Jingyun Manor, his eyes were filled with shock.

"You...you really did it..."

Why?

He stared at her, bewildered.

They had only met twice, so why would she risk her life to come back for someone like herself?

Li Qingluo: "It's fate that we met. I won't just stand by and watch you die. Hurry up and tell me, or it will be too late!"

The fire was raging everywhere. If they delayed any longer, Li Qingluo was afraid that all the medicine would be burned to ashes.

Li Jingchuan coughed violently again.

He glanced around before pointing in one direction: "Over there, thank you for your trouble..."

However, at this moment, some of the Lotus Cult members, who had gone mad with killing, discovered their presence and rushed over with knives in hand.

With a wave of his hand, Nangong Di sent several guards with their weapons into battle.

Granny Deng couldn't control the butterfly, which was almost going crazy. Seeing her jump out, she hurriedly chased after her.

Nangong Di quickly carried Li Jingchuan on his back again, and the three of them ran like the wind towards the place Li Jingchuan pointed to.

However, Jingyun Manor was simply too large.

Li Qinglu killed two people who blocked his way and received several pointers from Nangong Di.

When they encountered government soldiers, Li Qingluo and his two companions could only quickly hide.

After finally passing through a dark courtyard, the extremely weak Li Jingchuan managed to say, "We're...we're here..."

Fortunately, the fire had not yet spread to the house he was referring to.

Just as the three were about to enter the house, a loud shout came from behind: "Who!?"

Li Qingluo and Nangong Di quickly turned around.

Seeing that it was a woman approaching with a knife, Nangong Di narrowed his eyes.

"It's her?"

“Master does recognize him.”

Nangong Di coldly curled his lips and placed Li Jingchuan on the ground.

"Luo'er, quickly take him inside to get the medicine. Master will handle things here."

The woman's expression changed when she saw Li Jingchuan: "What have you done to him? I'll kill you all—"

As she spoke, the woman angrily charged forward.

Li Jingchuan couldn't say a word and could only shake his head slightly.

"Don't... hurt her..."

Li Qingluo glanced at the woman, then at Li Jingchuan.

The two showed great concern for each other.

If you say you don't recognize them, you must be blind.

As if possessed, Li Qingluo called out, "Zheng Wanxiu!"

The woman quickly looked up, her sharp and fierce gaze glaring at her.

It really is her!?

Li Chaojing's missing Aunt Zheng!

By the dim moonlight, Li Qingluo could see clearly that she was indeed very beautiful. Even though she was now middle-aged, she still couldn't hide the beauty she had in her youth.

So, could this Young Master Jingchuan really be...?

Moreover, the more Li Qingluo looked at his appearance, the more she felt that he and Zheng Lingzhou looked somewhat alike!

Could he really be my half-brother?

It's that twin boy who was almost killed by his own mother at birth!?

Li Qingluo's heart was pounding wildly. Seeing his face growing paler and paler, and even his breath seeming to be weakening, she struggled to help Li Jingchuan up from the ground and then quickly went into the house.

After rummaging through the room, Li Qingluo finally found a pile of medicine bottles.

She brought them all over and asked Li Jingchuan, "Which one? Which one can save your life?"

Li Jingchuan had already fallen into a coma and could not be woken up no matter what.

Li Qingluo could only raise her voice and shout, "Master, stop hitting them! Quickly let that woman in to save them!"

Nangong Di and Zheng Wanxiu broke into the house.

Nangong Di's martial arts skills were naturally far superior to Zheng Wanxiu's.

Today, she had no subordinates by her side, so she had long been completely suppressed by Nangong Di and had no power to fight back.

Seeing this, Li Qingluo quickly shouted, "Stop hitting him! He's dying! Which medicine should he take?!"

"No! Xiaochuan——"

In her desperation, Zheng Wanxiu took a knife from Nangong Di, and then finally found a chance to escape. Clutching her wound, she rushed over.

Which one?

Li Qingluo pushed aside the bottles scattered on the ground, and Zheng Wanxiu, even more anxious than her, immediately began searching through them.

"This, this one, and this one, that one, all of them..."

Zheng Wanxiu's voice was full of sobs.

Li Qingluo quickly opened nearly ten medicine bottles one by one.

Then he poured them all into his hand and fed them one by one into Li Jingchuan's mouth.

"water!"

Li Qinglu shouted, and Nangong Di quickly handed over the kettle.

Li Qingluo disregarded all decorum and directly poured water down Li Jingchuan's throat.

"Swallow it, do you hear me? I'm going to save you, so you can't die!"

"Otherwise, wouldn't all my efforts have been in vain?"

"I finally made up my mind, so don't make me regret it!"

"Did you hear that? Young Master Jingchuan, Young Master Jingchuan?"

As Li Qingluo continued her nagging, Zheng Wanxiu trembled and couldn't utter a single word, only able to turn her head to look at her repeatedly.

Finally, Li Jingchuan swallowed the medicine.

His breathing and pulse seemed to gradually stabilize.

Li Qingluo breathed a sigh of relief, but the fighting had already reached their side.

Nangong Di: "Luo'er, it's time to go."

Li Qingluo looked at Zheng Wanxiu and silently stood up.

"Let's go."

She knew that Zheng Wanxiu could no longer stop her, so she left with Nangong Di without hesitation.

However, just as the two of them reached the door, Zheng Wanxiu shouted to stop them: "Stop!"

"Since you've already saved someone, why not go all the way and save them completely?"

"Take him away with you!"

Li Qingluo: "Take him away? What else do you want to do?"

"Zheng Wanxiu, you already know who I am, right? I also know your identity. You still dare to let him come with me?"

"And what exactly are you and Zheng Lingzhou trying to gain from me?"

"And who exactly is it?"

Li Qingluo pointed at Li Jingchuan and questioned him loudly.

Zheng Wanxiu: "He's nobody. He's just some unlucky guy that Ah Ling and I caught."

“He had something we wanted in him, so we imprisoned him.”

"If you don't believe me, why don't you wait until he wakes up and ask him yourself!"

Nobody?

Li Qingluo naturally didn't believe it.

However, someone outside had already noticed that there was someone inside the house. Zheng Wanxiu rushed out with her knife in hand: "Do as you please! Let him continue to lie here waiting to die, or save him completely. Anyway, I don't care about his life or death anymore!"

After saying this, she disappeared into the crowd, killing any soldiers she saw.

Li Qingluo didn't make a decision, but a new idea suddenly came to her mind.

She looked at Nangong Di: "Master, I have a favor to ask of you."

Nangong Di's brow twitched; he knew that his disciple's mind had been scheming all day.

"Speak."

Li Qingluo smiled and said, "Disciple would like to ask Master for help in capturing her. Also, please do not harm her for the time being."

Nangong Di: "What's so difficult about that?"

As long as it doesn't involve him picking the moon, this shouldn't be too difficult.

After saying that, Nangong Di rushed out again.

Li Qingluo watched as her master blended into the crowd, quickly found Zheng Wanxiu who was wreaking havoc, and soon engaged in a fierce battle with her.

He stepped out the door, looked into the darkness, and whistled.

Soon, three dark figures that had heard the noise nearby landed silently in front of her.

Li Qingluo pulled out the jade pendant of the Night-Killing Sect Master and showed it to them.

"Do any of you recognize this object?"

The three dark figures exchanged a glance and then quickly knelt down.

"Your subordinates greet the Sect Master!"

Li Qinglu smiled slightly: "Very good."

This Night-Killing Gate is really useful.

However, if someone recognizes another as their master based on just a jade pendant, what if they lose the pendant and someone points it at them and tries to kill them?

Li Qingluo put this question in his mind for the time being, and immediately gave the three of them an order: "Take this sect leader and leave this place first!"

Regardless of the fierce fighting that ensued at Jingyun Manor tonight, Li Qingluo, led by her three new subordinates, quickly withdrew with Li Jingchuan.

Back at the mountain villa, flames still raged and a massacre ensued.

Upon reaching a relatively safe grove of trees, Li Qingluo instructed the assassins of the Night Slayer Sect to first place Li Jingchuan on the ground, and then go to meet up with Granny Deng and Nangong Di.

The three dark figures quickly disappeared into the night.

Just as Li Qingluo was about to sit down and rest, she suddenly heard a melodious tune coming from the woods behind her...
