Qin Changqing happened to be sitting opposite Qiu Qi. He hadn't noticed the problem on the wall at first. It was only after seeing Qiu Qi's strange expression and following his line of sight that he realized there was a person carved on the wall. It was himself.
After his initial shock, Qin Changqing suddenly remembered that Ah Hua had been a gifted painter. His greatest skill was sketching Qin Changqing's face on a blank sheet of paper. With a few simple strokes, a clear, immature yet still handsome Qin Changqing appeared on the page. This was Ah Hua's favorite activity in his textbooks during middle and high school. For this reason, the teacher even moved Qin Changqing's seat several rows away, fearing that Ah Hua, a "bad" student who was always slacking off, would cause trouble for him. Ah Hua even protested this to the teacher for a long time...
This was not the first time he had seen Lan Sinian's painting skills, so he didn't think much of it, thinking that these geniuses probably learned things very quickly.
On the other side, the people of Sosito originally wanted to teach them a lesson because they were ignorant of their duties. However, they did not expect that they would be stopped so easily just after they displayed their special skills. Their faces immediately became very ugly, and they hated the guard Ah Si who had embarrassed them in front of Sosito.
However, Ah Si obviously did not take them seriously. There was no extra emotion on his handsome face. He didn't even give them a glance. He retreated back to Qin Changqing with a stern face.
Qin Changqing took a sip of tea, crossed his legs leisurely, and ignored the dark faces of Sosito and the others. He raised his head slightly and said to the waiter who was huddled aside with a pale face, "Look, beautiful lady, I didn't lie to you. Even if they are numerous, my guard alone is more than enough to deal with them."
The waitress's face was pale, and she just wanted to find a hole to crawl into! She was just a weak waitress, why should she endure such a thing!
Qin Changqing didn't continue to embarrass a woman like her. He put down the teacup in his hand, his face turned cold, and he said softly to the guard beside him: "Ah Si, throw them all out."
"Yes, master." The blond guard Ah Si seemed to be completely unaware of how rude his master's order was. He turned around and walked towards the people sitting on the other side at a leisurely pace.
He was over 1.9 meters tall, with a strong build, but he was so silent as he stomped on the ground in a pair of combat boots! "Silence" had always been a specialty of the Snake Clan, but now, feeling it from their opponent, an opponent who seemed to want to kill them, only made them feel a chill!
This man was incredibly powerful. Although he had only unleashed a single move, it was enough to make everyone present feel the crushing pressure of the abyss, like the waters of the abyss. They finally realized that this man was at least a high-level psychic! For years, Suo Xito had relied on his noble status as Prince Suo's brother to bully others, but when it came to a real showdown... how could a lazy young master take on a high-level warrior?
"What do you want to do? Young Master Suo is Prince Suo's brother!" The people around Sosito saw Ah Si walking towards them silently. The pressure from the absolutely strong man made them want to turn into beasts and roll back into the corner, but then they thought that this was the right time to show off in front of Sosito, so they had to suppress their fear and stand in front of him. If someone looked closely at this time, they could see that their hands tucked into their sleeves were shaking slightly.
"Get out." Ah Si's eyes flashed with impatience. He raised his arm and waved it lightly. The heavy guards standing in front of Sosito were like Moses parting the sea. They were immediately thrown away by an invisible huge force, revealing Sosito hiding behind them.
Sosito watched helplessly as his supporter was easily thrown off. His face turned pale with fear. He glared at the man in front of him with a fierce look on his face and cursed, "What do you want to do?! My brother is the prince of the Snake Clan, and you are just a lowly guard. How dare you be so rude to me? He will definitely not let you go!"
Qin Changqing leaned back on his chair, feeling a bit bored. He urged, "Ah Si, why are you still dragging your feet? I don't want to hear his voice again."
"I understand, Master." Although Ah Si's voice was rigid and without any ups and downs, upon closer listening, one could actually hear a hint of helplessness and doting in it.
Sosito was extremely angry, but Ah Si, who had received the order from his master, did not give him any chance to speak. Sosito's body was suddenly thrown into the air by an invisible force. He opened his eyes wide in horror and opened his mouth wide, but his mouth seemed to be blocked by something, and no sound leaked out. His body was like a rag doll, spinning in the air, and was thrown out of the cabin door!
Next, the staff of the civilian starship watched helplessly as Sosito and his group were thrown out of the cabin door one by one like chickens, and then the blond guard who frightened people from the bottom of their hearts turned his gaze to them again.
The staff member was startled and dared not stay any longer. While begging for mercy incoherently, he quickly rolled out of the cabin.
Qin Changqing still maintained the posture of supporting his face, tapping his fingers on his knees one by one, and said in a deliberately picky tone, "So slow."
Ah Si finished his job of taking out the garbage, and then he walked over to him and stood there with his hands behind his back, saying seriously, "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. Please punish me."
Qin Changqing rolled his eyes and decided to forget it. In the event of punishment, he would be the one who would suffer in the end. He had suffered too much at the hands of this man and he did not intend to do such a thing that would harm others and benefit himself again.
The cabin was completely quiet at this moment. Church's mercenaries did not take the young master Qin Changqing seriously at first, and were quite perfunctory about this mission. They just wanted to cheat a sucker and make some money. But when they saw the ability of the guard beside him, they knew that they were no match for him. They exchanged glances privately and were no longer as careless about this mission as before.
…
The starship arrived at the star field marked on the "treasure map" and they got off the starship again to prepare for transfer.
However, by coincidence, they ran into Sosito and his group again in the rest area near the star port.
After being beaten up by Ah Si, Sosito did not call for help in a big way. When he saw them again, although his face looked very ugly, he did not come to provoke them again. This made Qin Changqing, who had not yet had enough of beating up people, a little depressed.
It wasn't until dinner time that Lan Sinian whispered in his ear, "After returning from the palace last time, Sosito almost got into trouble with the Bat Tribe and offended a great noble of the Bat Tribe. Prince Suo probably gave him a good beating. Sosito probably won't dare to complain to his brother for a while."
Qin Changqing frowned slightly, "Then is it a coincidence that we met them here?"
"I'm afraid not." Lan Sinian patted his shoulder and gestured for him to look at the supply area.
Sure enough, the people from Sosito were picking things in the supply area. Judging from their appearance, it was very likely that their destination was the same as Qin Changqing and others.
When they left the starport again, the starship they boarded was even lower-class, with only three large cabins, all of which were of the same standard, leaving each person with only a small space to stretch their legs. Qin Changqing had spent three years on the battlefield, having experienced all sorts of conditions. Lan Sinian, though an emperor, had a peculiar and complex life experience, and was completely oblivious to such matters. This was even more true for Church's team of mercenaries, who had been adventuring extensively. None of them complained about the low-quality cabins.
It was also because of Sosito and others' bad idea that they bought tickets and actually shared a cabin with Qin Changqing and others. The group immediately looked pale.
Sosito didn't dare to make trouble this time. He just asked the waiter to change their cabin with a green face and left.
But what surprised Qin Changqing and the others even more was that among the newcomers there was actually someone they knew! —Blood Rose.
Blood Rose was still dressed so gorgeously, with dazzling long blonde hair and large dark red patterns on her black clothes. It looked pretty, but it looked like dried blood stains on the clothes. Just from a distance, one could almost smell the creepy smell of blood.
Qin Changqing was watching in a trance when suddenly something in his clothes slid against his skin. Even though he had felt it once before, Qin Changqing was still so shocked that he almost jumped up from his chair!
"Take your things out!" Qin Changqing glared at Lan Sinian fiercely, his voice almost squeezed out from between his teeth.
"My thing is not in the master's body." Ah Si looked at him innocently.
Although he did not deliberately amplify his voice, Qiu Qi and Ji Sai who were sitting next to him heard it. After such an ambiguous conversation, the two seemed to understand something at once. Ji Sai blushed, while Qiu Qi looked clear-headed. He even glanced at Qin Changqing's lower body with his triangular eyes - the precious young master and the strong guard, wow.
Qin Changqing's face turned pale. If this wasn't the wrong place, he really wanted to beat this evildoer to death!!!
Blood Rose soon saw them and walked towards them with a smile.
"Mr. Qing, we meet again." He was dressed gorgeously and attracted almost everyone's attention as soon as he entered the cabin.
Qin Changqing placed his fists on his knees and clenched them tightly, trying to endure the waves of numbness and itchiness coming from his body. The blue veins on his forehead were throbbing, and he was afraid that he would jump up if he relaxed. The waist was such a sensitive area that would normally make people jump in surprise if someone poked it, but that thing in his clothes kept moving around, making it so painful!
He had no intention of observing Blood Rose at this moment. As soon as this person spoke to him, he felt the thing in his clothes actually going straight down to his waist...
"Mr. Qing, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?" Xue Meigui was a little surprised, but then she remembered something and said with a worried look on her face, "I remember you're a doctor. Doctors have to take care of themselves. Otherwise, it's heartbreaking to see a beauty like you suffering from illness."
Qin Changqing was indeed tortured by the "disease" at this moment, wanting to kill someone. However, the "disease" refused to let him go. It could be said that it could find a loophole and went all the way down, even exploring some unspeakable place. Qin Changqing's face, which had already turned blue, suddenly turned pale. He was afraid that the madman Lan Sinian would do something extreme again. He dared not bear it anymore and suddenly said to the guard sitting quietly beside him: "You! Switch places with this gentleman!"
The guard who had been deliberately torturing him out of jealousy was now visibly dumbfounded. He no longer dared to move around on him, saying, "Master, please don't be willful. I need to protect your safety."
Qin Changqing sneered in his heart, you are safer when I am not around! His attitude is very tough, it is really that some people are too good at pushing things too far! If he doesn't teach him a lesson, this person will definitely go to heaven!
For the first time, Lan Sinian felt what it meant to shoot himself in the foot. This cabin accommodated a large number of passengers, and the people were mixed. Take the Blood Rose in front of him for example, he was the boss of one of the five major gangs in the empire. Don't look at him standing in front of them in a decent manner, he is also a bad guy who kills people like crazy. Church and his men are not enough for him to kill with one hand!
However, it was too late for him to regret now. Xue Meigui looked like she was enjoying the show, as if she was going to snatch his place at any time. Qin Changqing turned away with a cold face and was obviously really angry... Unless he tore off his disguise at this time and didn't intend to continue the show, otherwise, as a guard, the only thing he could do was to obey his master's orders.
Lan Sinian, who was no longer in a position of authority over his husband, could only sigh inwardly and reluctantly exchange places with Xue Meigui.
Compared to the gloomy mood in his heart, Xue Meigui was obviously in a very good mood at this time. She sat down next to Qin Changqing, which made Lan Sinian so angry that he simulated tearing the gang leader apart with his bare hands countless times in his mind!
"Are you very dissatisfied with him? He was the one given to you by the Fourth Master?" Xue Meigui asked Qin Changqing with a smile, crossing her legs.
Qin Changqing thought, isn't that right? This isn't just someone sent by the Fourth Master, he's the Fourth Master himself! Your Emperor is crazy! If this gets out, everyone in the empire will probably drop their jaws!
But he didn't respond, instead he asked, "Where are you going?"
Xue Meigui rested her elbows on the armrests, her palms supporting her face as she tilted her head and smiled at him, "Mr. Qing, you're really forgetful. Have you forgotten what I told you about the Dragon Fish Clan back on Emperor Star? I'm also very curious about this. Isn't that why you came out?"
Ji Sai, who was sitting on the other side of Qin Changqing, clenched her hands slightly when she heard this, not understanding what this person had to do with the Dragon Fish Clan.
Qin Changqing nodded. "I did come here because of the Dragon Fish Clan, but... I don't know what happened to the Dragon Fish Clan. It seems like a lot of people are paying attention, you know?"
Blood Rose smiled meaningfully, "You should already know that the disappearance of the former Dragon Fish Prince, Prince Al, might be related to the current... no, the now-deposed Prince El, right?"
"Yes, I have heard of it." Qin Changqing nodded slightly.
Blood Rose raised her finger to her eyes and examined it carefully for a moment before she slowly spoke, "Then I say, if we can solve the mystery of Prince Al's disappearance, we might also be able to unravel the mystery of why the Third Prince of the Imperial Family suddenly rebelled, a mystery that has plagued the entire empire for nearly thirty years. Do you believe it?"
Qin Changqing was shocked. The news was so explosive that he was speechless for a moment.
Blood Rose's words were clearly not finished yet. He continued, "All of us, including the Fourth Master, Cang, the Emperor, and possibly others, must solve this mystery. Do you know why?"
"Why?" Qin Changqing asked subconsciously.
However, Blood Rose did not utter another word. He remained silent for a long time, just like the feeling he gave people, lifeless.
Qin Changqing's heart was a little confused. He suddenly regretted sending Lan Sinian so far away. He thought of the Third Prince's rebellion, and then of Lan Sinian being imprisoned in that white basement for six years, and all the torture and despair he had endured...
Perhaps it was because Lan Sinian was not around to play tricks on him at this time, so he was finally able to integrate such a cruel past with the extremely powerful Lan Sinian now.
He turned his head and looked in the direction of Lan Sinian through the gap between the high chair backs. The man was staring at them closely, like a beast ready to pounce.
——I'm just worried that he might be in danger.
