man-faced demon, we still need to clean up this mess here. 。That old man was eighty years old, he couldn't move his daughter. It was still my brother who helped carry her back to the bed and then gave..."Brother, this is Madam Shen, the head of the Shen family." I reminded him quietly.

My brother immediately darkened his face: "Is that so No wonder he looked down on everyone, so it's someone from the Shen family. Humph, a stubborn old fossil."

Several Kun Dao behind Old Madam Shen angrily shouted, "What are you, to dare speak disrespectfully to your master!"

My brother sneered: "I'm nothing, of course I don't have the airs that Old Mrs. Shen has… Little Qiao, let's go. It's annoying to look at these people."

"Stop right there!" Old Mrs. Shen said with anger in her voice, "Where are your elders Why isn't your grandfather here"

"Sorry, there are matters with the elders at my house, so I'm attending as the acting head of the household this time… Anyway, it’s not our Mu family's turn to speak." My brother pulled me away without looking back.

"Brother, aren't you being a little disrespectful Even in public, you should give her some face." I whispered.

"This old stubborn mule, hmph... drove our mother to run away from home, what good could he possibly be… Forget about them, where's that jerk Mu Yunliang I'm going to beat him up and vent my anger."

Since I got into Situ Lin's car, I haven't seen Mu Yunliang again. At this time, my brother called him and learned that he had borrowed a small room from the Taoist temple to imprison Mu Yunliang and sent two people to guard him.

I went to Xiaomiao Peak's Tianzi Pavilion yesterday and stayed up all night with Jiang Qiyun. When dawn broke, he was gone. This bad habit of his disappearing without a trace makes me furious, but what can I do All I can do is stuff my mouth full of things to turn my anger into appetite.

This Qiyue Dao Guan is very opulent, with winding paths everywhere. On the mountainside pavilion, I saw Jiang Qiyun. He was leaning against the pillar with his arms crossed, and several old men were talking to Shen Qingru by his side. He was just frowning there, listening to them argue.

Jiang Qiyun saw us, his eyes swept over my face and landed on my brother's hand holding mine.

My brother locked fingers with me provocatively, then held them up and shook them in my face, saying in a smug whisper, "Little Qiao, stick close to me. Let him bully you. Come on, bro, I'll be your knight in shining armor."

I felt Jiang Qiyun's displeasure. I helplessly said, "You're so bored... Aren't you afraid of offending him"

"Don't be afraid of **! I'm his brother-in-law! In a way, he should be the one afraid of me!" My brother leaned against me tightly as we walked past them.

I couldn't help but laugh. My brother always has a way of turning serious topics into jokes.

There was a row of two-story houses on the back mountain, and the room at the very end of the second floor was used to guard Mu Yunliang.

Two men in suits stood at the door. When they saw us, they nodded to us and said, "Our young master said that this Mu Yunliang inside is connected to a corpse of the Ghost King, and he can't be taken away by Young Master Mu for now. However, Young Master Mu can ask him questions at will, as long as he doesn't kill him."

My brother was amused: "Don't be ridiculous, I'm such a cultured person, how could I possibly hit someone Don't worry."

He went in first, before I even crossed the threshold, a wail erupted from inside. My brother held up a bench and smashed Mu Yunliang, who was now cowering in the corner.

I was sweating buckets and rushed inside, grabbing my brother's arm. "Don't hit too hard," I said, "What if you cause a problem"

"You little brat, you're eating inside and out, actually colluding with outsiders to kidnap your own family. Do you still have a conscience" My brother pointed at him and scolded.

Mu Yunliang didn't dare to speak. My brother scolded him until he was speechless, finally asking, "What's the name of that man you're with Where is he from How did you get in touch with him!"

“I met him at the school bar. We got to know each other pretty well because we often drank together… When he heard I was going home for a few days, he said he wanted to come see my hometown with me, so I brought him along… That day, I told him…” Mu Yunliang glanced at me softly and didn’t dare to speak.

"What are you saying Speak up! If you keep stammering, I swear I'll shove a toilet plunger down your throat!" My brother roared.

"Later on, I found out that his purpose was to kidnap Xiao Qiao..."

"Xiao Qiao, I'm sorry. I lost my composure for a moment. It's been so long since we've seen each other, and seeing how beautiful you've become, I just couldn't help myself... Please forgive me this once. I won't do it again." Mu Yunliang knelt on the ground, apologizing to me sincerely.

I glared coldly at him. This guy was apologizing out loud, but there was still a glint of greed in his eyes when he looked at me. A person like this definitely still has ill intentions.

My brother crouched down, grabbing his hair: "You took advantage of my sister, just apologize two sentences!"

My brother inquired about the ghost king's walking corpses. Mu Yunliang honestly answered every question, repeatedly assuring him that he didn't have too deep of a relationship with that man.

Since the next day was the Grand Ceremony of Worshipping the Divine, the entire Taoist temple was very busy. We who came to participate had to observe a vegetarian diet and bathe with scented pouches.

I was soaking in the bathtub when I heard my phone ringing incessantly outside. I had to grab a towel and run out to answer it. As soon as I came out, I saw Jiang Qiyun holding my phone and coldly replied, "Hmm."

"You..." I was a bit angry. This guy came and went as he pleased, and now he even dared to answer my phone call without permission

He listened silently for a while, then said: "Tell Situ Lin not to make a fuss. Just inform Ling Xuzhi and the head of the Shen family, I'll be there now...Understood, I'm taking her out."

He hung up the phone and turned to me, "Your brother called to check on your safety. He said he can't leave you alone. Hurry up and change your clothes, we need to go out."

"Where to, where to" I quickly wiped my hair, a bad feeling creeping into my heart.

Jiang Qiyun leaned against the door, watching me get dressed without any shyness. He said in a faint voice, "…Someone had an accident, I'm going to take a look, but I can't show my face. When the time comes, you come and relay what I said."

"Oh... okay..." I felt a little awkward.

As darkness descended, he led me up the back mountain. The further we walked, the more uneasy I felt. I tugged at his sleeve and asked, "You said someone was in trouble, who is it"

"...Mu Yunliang." He said coldly.

"What's wrong with him"

"According to your brother, he might be dead. A skinned body was found in the room where he was held captive—"ugh my phone. He said he couldn't leave his current location, so we should go to the address in Xiling Village to find him."Hey, I'm actually quite curious to see if this old immortal is really a con...
