Yin Changling waited from day to night, trying to focus on his own things, but Tu Shan Lingxi did not return until sunset.
He looked at Tu Shan Su Su, who was nodding and about to fall asleep, woke her up, and personally escorted her back to her palace.
After returning, Yin Changling waited a while longer, but seeing that the dishes on the table had gotten cold, he finally got up and decided not to wait any longer.
How could he possibly sit still or sleep now? Judging from the situation, had his Xi'er run away, or had she been captured?
In short, Yin Changling was extremely anxious. He picked up the Dragon Roar Sword and headed out. He wanted to gather people, send people to seal off the city, and then lead a team to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.
He always felt that Tu Shan Lingxi must be trapped in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, after all, she was a great demon, who could keep her there?
Just as Yin Changling was walking out of the hall, a white figure silently landed behind him, but Yin Changling was so focused on walking out that he didn't see it at all.
"Yin Changling—"
Finally, just as Yin Changling was about to walk out of the main hall, the white figure called out to him, stopping him in his tracks.
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Yin Changling froze, his hand gripping the Dragon Roar Sword tightening suddenly.
He turned around, immediately drew his longsword, and with lightning speed, slashed at the white figure with unstoppable force and earth-shattering momentum.
However, the white figure was even more outrageous, actually flying into the sky to a height that humans could not reach.
That's right, the only person who can do this is our Imperial Advisor, Wan Qijin.
Yin Changling pierced through the air with his sword. Yin Changling staggered twice before barely stopping, which showed how determined he was to eliminate Wan Qijin.
Wan Qijin was graceful and her face was rosy. She was no longer haggard as before. She looked satisfied, and her eyes and brows were full of contentment.
Yin Changling was so angry he almost ground his teeth to powder. Seeing the man like this, he understood perfectly well that this man had taken Xi'er for himself.
"Wan Qijin, you are despicable and shameless! Xi'er has nothing to do with you anymore, yet you insist on pestering her!"
"Heh, weren't you the one who started this, Yin—Chang—Ling?"
Wan Qijin glared back, his eyes filled with hatred, his previous gentleness completely gone, revealing his true colors.
Indeed, enemies are bound to be furious when they meet. There is a fatal flaw between Wan Qijin and Yin Changling, namely Tu Shan Lingxi.
Yin Changling gripped his sword tightly and thrust it at Wan Qijin again, this time without hesitation, with a determination to kill.
"Go to hell!"
"Aren't you afraid of hurting Xi'er? I am the one she went through so much trouble to be resurrected!"
With just a few words from Wan Qijin, Yin Changling stopped in his tracks. Even though the distance between the sword and the man was only a finger's width, Wan Qijin didn't even flinch.
He looked at Yin Changling's red and angry eyes, his voice no longer carrying the murderous intent of before. Instead, he suppressed the surging jealousy in his heart and spoke to Yin Changling.
“I asked Xi’er about the real reason she left. She was afraid that she would bring me trouble, like what happened just now, and that you would kill me.”
Upon hearing Wan Qijin's words, Yin Changling suddenly realized why Tu Shan Lingxi had appeared before him in such a disheveled state that day, with traces of Wan Qijin still on her body.
She clearly still had feelings for someone else, yet she accepted his marriage proposal without even considering it.
