However, just as Qu Feiyan moved to the kitchen doorway, a powerful force suddenly enveloped her.

That familiar feeling made Qu Feiyan almost instinctively know that Chu Qinghe was currently using "Transplanting Flowers and Grafting Jade".

Subsequently, under the special force generated by the "Transferring Flowers and Jade" technique, Qu Feiyan, who was just at the kitchen door, was pulled directly in front of Chu Qinghe.

A moment later, Qu Feiyan was pinned to Chu Qinghe's lap and given a good beating.

*Smack!*

"You sent the storybook out without my knowledge, didn't you!"

*Smack!*

"So you're spreading sadness, huh!"

*Smack!*

As Chu Qinghe slapped her repeatedly on the buttocks, Qu Feiyan struggled to move her arms and legs, but the force created by Chu Qinghe's "Transplanting Flowers and Jade" technique prevented her from getting up.

"Ah~ it wasn't me~ Sister Yue was the mastermind, I was forced into it."

"Ah~ I was wrong, young master, please don't hit me."

"Ouch~ It hurts~"

A moment later, as Qu Feiyan walked into the kitchen with a resentful look on her slapped bottom, Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin both wore mocking smiles.

Noticing the expressions on Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin's faces, Qu Feiyan complained, "You two didn't even try to put in a good word for me."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shiyin smiled and said, "Who told you to secretly take the storybook out without telling Young Master and Sister Yue? Now you've even brought a victim here."

Qu Feiyan gave a soft "humph" and said, "Anyway, now that the young master knows, he won't have to sneak around when taking the manuscript out in the future."

However, no sooner had he spoken than Chu Qinghe's lazy voice rang out.

"So, was that beating you got worth it?"

Upon hearing the sound, Qu Feiyan, who was walking, froze for a moment before rushing quickly into the kitchen.

Seeing his swift and agile movements, Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin's smiles deepened even further.

"This girl needs a beating."

After muttering a curse to himself, Chu Qinghe finally turned his attention away from Qu Feiyan. He then rested his chin on his hand, sipping tea and admiring the sunset glow in the sky.

Bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, a thoughtful look occasionally flashed in his eyes.

Just as only a sliver of light remained in the sky and the courtyard was brightly lit, Lin Shiyin, carrying the last lantern, walked into the courtyard, her hair suddenly fluttering gently in the breeze.

Upon closer inspection, they saw that the water nymph Yin Ji, who had left earlier, had returned and was now sitting next to Chu Qinghe.

After Shuimu Yinji sat down next to Chu Qinghe, she immediately smiled sweetly and said, "I'm back."

"Um!"

While responding to Jellyfish Yin Ji, Chu Qinghe poured a cup of tea and handed it to her.

After Jellyfish Yin Ji took the teacup and drank a sip, Chu Qinghe asked, "Is there anything unusual?"

Shuimu Yinji smiled and shook her head, saying, "After she left, she went directly to a place at the end of the street and found a guy to bewitch her before sending a letter to the Tang Dynasty. I had the disciples of Shenshui Palace intercept the contents of that letter. It was about the Yin Gui Sect and Cihang Jingzhai, and it also explained that she was being hunted down. Her arrival in Yushui City was a coincidence, not her intention."

"When we monitored you later, there were no other abnormalities, except that he kept muttering that he wanted to tie you up, whip you, and change the original ending of the story."

Hearing what Jellyfish Yin Ji said, Chu Qinghe raised an eyebrow and asked, "Where are they now?"

Upon hearing this, Jellyfish Yin Ji slowly raised her hand and placed it in front of her chest, then gestured towards the roof of the main house behind her.

Chu Qinghe took in the gesture from the jellyfish Yin Ji and was slightly surprised.

Then, the high-speed circulation of true qi amplifies the perception of the five senses.

But I still didn't feel anything unusual.

It wasn't until the Devouring Essence Mother Glass Gu was released that Chu Qinghe was able to sense where Wanwan was hiding on the rooftop.

Chu Qinghe chuckled and said, "Heh, interesting. The martial arts of the Yin Gui Sect are quite special. With a cultivation level of mid-stage Grandmaster, he managed to sneak into this rooftop without me even noticing."

Shuimu Yinji smiled and said, "It seems that the Yin Gui Sect has a special martial art that conceals the fluctuations of true energy. If I hadn't been keeping a close eye on it, I probably wouldn't have noticed it."

Then, Chu Qinghe said, "So, the woman came to our door just because of the storybook."

Jellyfish Yin Ji smiled and said, "It seems that way now."

Upon seeing this, Chu Qinghe suddenly felt speechless.

"They actually came knocking just because of a storybook issue? Is it really that serious?"

Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Jellyfish Yin Ji said seriously, "It shouldn't be too strange!"

Women are mostly emotional.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that these words were originally written by Chu Qinghe...

Even if Shuimu Yinji read Chu Qinghe's stories, she would probably have the idea of ​​sending out disciples of Shenshui Palace to investigate, find out who wrote these stories, and then hang them up and beat them up.

After all, the things Chu Qinghe wrote in his book were too unsettling.

Hearing what Shuimu Yinji said, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"So what should we do with her now? Should we kick her out or keep her?"

After thinking for a moment, Chu Qinghe said, "It would be good to make contact and learn about the situation in the Tang Dynasty. It would be even better if we had someone familiar with the Tang Dynasty."

Jellyfish Yin Ji asked, "You don't trust Bai Xiaosheng?"
