Chapter 118: Late-night Visit by Two Individuals

“Father! Why are you here?” the second brother exclaimed, drawing the attention of the crowd.

Qin Jianan’s face turned red and then white, feeling somewhat embarrassed. “Shh, keep your voice down, keep your voice down!”

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, half-smiling, “The city is under the invasion of a hundred ghosts, dangers abound, and here we are worrying about your safety. Little did we expect that father would have the leisure to visit such a place, accompanied by beauty. It truly makes us envious.”

Ya’an and the others cast sidelong glances, and Liu Jianli slightly turned her head to look at him.

“…Truly, it makes me and the second brother feel ashamed! If Mother knew about your visit to a brothel, what do you think would happen?” Qin Feng spoke with righteous indignation, but in his heart, he was relieved that he caught himself in time and didn’t reveal his true thoughts.

Feeling the scrutinizing and disdainful gazes of the others, Qin Jianan quickly defended himself, “It’s a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding!”

Then he roughly explained the reason for coming out of the brothel.

“Father meant that the dropped money pouch happened to fall nearby, and when he wanted to go back, he almost encountered demons. Helpless, he had to hide in the brothel?” The second brother extracted the key points, sounding skeptical.

“Is there such a coincidence in the world?” Qin Feng sneered.

Qin Jianan could see that no one believed him and tried to make a last-ditch effort.

Just then, a slender figure dressed in purple peeked out from the brothel.

Qin Feng remembered this girl mainly because of her broad-mindedness.

The girl moved cautiously, looking a bit nervous. She trembled as she asked, “Sir, is the danger in the city over?”

Father turned and said, “It should be much safer now, don’t worry.”

Hearing this, the girl sighed in relief, patted her chest, and caused a stir among the men present.

Seeing this, Ya’an sneered, and the three martial artists quickly averted their gazes.

Qin Feng’s reaction was slightly slower. He regretted being an intellectual, feeling a bit disadvantaged in this situation. Did Liu Jianli notice?

While thinking about this, he glanced at the beautiful woman in the wheelchair, but she showed no reaction.

Thank goodness, Qin Feng sighed in relief.

“It’s all right now.” The girl in purple smiled faintly and added, “Sir Qin, tonight, the sisters were all frightened. The brothel will probably close for a while. If there’s a chance, come back and relax with us.”

With those words, she waved and closed the wooden door.

“This…” Qin Jianan opened his mouth, truly at a loss for words.

“Father, you are indeed as daring as ever. If it were me, I wouldn’t have the courage.” Qin Feng spat, seizing the opportunity to establish a good image in front of Liu Jianli, then pushed the wheelchair and left.

The second brother hesitated before saying, “Father, you should think about how to explain this to Mother when you get back.”

Wang Xu and the others threw sympathetic glances. Being older men, they felt a sense of sympathy at this moment.

However, after Ya’an glanced at them, their clear stance caused them to retract their gazes and quickly leave.

Outside the brothel, only Qin Jianan’s lonely and desolate figure remained.

The crowd returned to the Qin residence, and Second Mother quickly learned about the matter. It is worth mentioning that this was reported by Qin Feng.

The father and the second mother argued for a long time, but no one knew the details.

One thing Qin Feng was certain about, though, was that Dad was sleeping in the guest room again.

The night was deep, having endured the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk earlier. Besides the personnel from the Demon Slayer Department patrolling the streets, no other figures could be seen.

Even the night watchmen skipped their duties, shivering in their own beds.

Any movement outside the window would make the people inside the house uneasy, unable to sleep soundly.

At the entrance of Listen To Rain Pavilion, the old man Bai Li snored. Suddenly, he opened his eyes.

He looked towards the end of the dimly lit street, where two figures were approaching.

Among them was a middle-aged man with a sturdy body and a lean face, sporting a finely trimmed beard. His hair, a mix of black and white, hung down in disarray. He wore a gray robe with open garments, and black bandages wound around his body under the loose clothes.

Beside him was a handsome young man in white, with a wooden box on his back.

Bai Li asked, “How come the famous Fate Master of the Southern Region has time to come to such a remote place?”

It turns out that the lean-faced middle-aged man is none other than Yan Zhou, who commands the Demon Slayer Department in the Southern Territory and is known as the Southern Heaven Dragon.

“Passing through this area, I sensed an unusual aura. I thought there might be demons causing trouble, so I decided to take care of it and stretch my muscles. But now, it seems like it was unnecessary,” Yan Zhou said with a light laugh.

“Hmm,” the old man responded nonchalantly.

The young man in white didn’t appreciate the old man’s attitude. He furrowed his brow, turned his head, and snorted. Although he knew the old man’s identity and didn’t dare to act recklessly, his dissatisfaction was evident.

The old man looked at the young man and blurted out, “The military has produced good talent in this generation. At such a young age, you can use the Ghost Soldier Sword Box that has been lost for a hundred years.”

White clothed youth is a person who lives away from home, his surname is Li and his given name is Luo. When he heard the old man’s praise, the dissatisfaction in his heart immediately faded away, replaced by a look of pride.

In Great Qian, it is no small honor to be praised by the old man.

Seeing this, Bai Li raised an eyebrow. “It’s a pity you were born in the wrong era. The top swordsman of this generation is so bright that it hasn’t been seen in the past thousand years. At best, you could only be ranked second.”

Li Luo, upon hearing this, widened his eyes and hurriedly asked, “Who is he?!”

The young man didn’t question the old man’s words, only inquiring about the person’s name.

Bai Li didn’t conceal anything and just chuckled, “The daughter of the Liu family.”

“Liu Jianli?!” Li Luo’s voice suddenly increased, but it didn’t reach beyond a yard.

An inexplicable force had already enveloped the area, making it impossible for others to see or hear.

Li Luo naturally knew the name of Liu Jianli. Since he could remember, his family had compared him to this woman the most.

If the old man had mentioned another name, the young man might not have accepted it and might have even sought out that person to compete and see whose swordsmanship was more superior, whose talent was stronger!

But Liu Jianli, he could accept.

Back then, when Li Luo left home he went to the Myriad Sword Sect for challange.

With the Ghost Soldier Sword Box, no one from the younger generation of Myriad Sword Sect could match its sharpness. At that time, he can be said to have unlimited glory!

Until the appearance of that woman.

She didn’t draw her sword at all. With just one finger, she knocked him off the sword platform and then turned away gracefully!

It was also on that day that Li Luo restrained the pride in his heart, realizing that there are always more outstanding people, and there are realms beyond one’s own.

“But she has indeed upheld the confirmation of the supremacy of heaven and earth,” Li Luo mumbled in a daze.
