"Xia Yu, you've gone too far! You've severed the Guo family's lineage! My father will definitely come after the Xia family, and none of us will survive! Everything can be discussed, please don't... Hey, hey, hey..."
Xia Yu's foot was already raised. "Dare to kick me in the groin? I'll make sure you're childless!"
"ah!"
The expected excruciating pain did not come.
Guo Hao shouted for a long time, then suddenly opened his eyes and saw that everyone in front of him was motionless.
He quickly broke free from his restraints and scrambled to his feet.
"Which hero..."
"Shut up, come help me."
A weak voice came from behind them.
Guo Hao quickly peeked out and saw Jiang Qingwan leaning against the wall a few steps away, her face still pale despite being deliberately smeared with black.
"You're alright? That's great. It wasn't for nothing that I risked burning down the Su family's ancestral hall."
He jogged over to help her.
Are you injured?
Jiang Qingwan shook her head.
Concealment spells consume a lot of spiritual energy, but she was just a little weak.
I just urgently released the formation to protect Guo Hao, and now my legs are so weak I can barely stand.
"Hurry up and leave, the Su family will be searching soon."
Guo Hao shook his head.
"You go first, I have to go back, otherwise they'll search for who wasn't at the banquet and they'll find me. That will implicate my father."
Jiang Qingwan pointed to the people standing in the formation.
"Aren't you afraid of them?"
Guo Hao smiled.
“They have their version of events, and I have mine. If they dare to accuse me, I’ll turn the tables and say I saw them burn down the ancestral hall. I’ll chase after them and arrest them. Even if they have to be tortured to extract a confession, they won’t be able to escape. Besides, the Marquis of Weiyuan’s mansion still has some influence with the Emperor, so they won’t really do anything to me.”
Jiang Qingwan was quite surprised.
Although this person is reckless and carefree, he is quite insightful when it matters.
She took out a blank talisman from her pouch, carved a talisman on it, and handed it to him.
She really didn't have any strength left.
"Do you have a tinderbox? Burn the talisman and run it over their noses. They will forget everything that happened an hour ago, and even if they remember it later, it will be too late."
Guo Hao suddenly felt a sense of novelty.
"Young lady, you actually possess such extraordinary abilities? Let me try them out."
He immediately took the talisman, took out a tinderbox, lit it, and smoked each one as Jiang Qingwan had instructed. After the talisman burned out, he stood there with his hands on his hips and waited.
Jiang Qingwan was utterly speechless.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and leave."
"Huh? I want to see if they really do lose their memory?"
Jiang Qingwan rolled her eyes.
"Wipe your nosebleed clean and get ready. I'll go back with you."
