Chapter 1 Standing in front of the Nangong family's gate, I was met with a vermilion gate and a golden plaque, the imposing presence so overwhelming that I could not take another step. It was only at that moment that I realized the Rong family had truly fallen. It wasn't just a nightmar

Chapter 108
Watching them fight for a while with his head tilted, Luo Sheng probably didn't expect Qiong Ying to be so skilled. He was entangled with her and couldn't break free for a while.
I took a sip of tea, waved my sleeves, and left. If I didn't slip away now, when would I ever get another chance?
People always like to complain that things don't go as planned or that fate doesn't cooperate. Why? Because the probability of such things happening is just too high!
I slipped away through the side door, only to find the back door wide open. A woman dressed in simple white, as elegant as a cold plum blossom, stood quietly, calm and composed. She was quite pleasing to the eye, but seeing her gave me goosebumps.
"You're like a persistent ghost, what exactly do you want?"
"It's your good fortune to be noticed by me, but don't get too cocky. I only chose you because you have some use to me."
You have such big eyes, how could you possibly see that I'm smug? People these days really know how to talk to themselves.
"Pah, I don't care." It's just that winter is here and I don't have much energy, so I'm too lazy to deal with you all. You all think I've been worn down and have no temper, right?
The woman was startled, probably because she had never been treated like this before. She gritted her teeth and glared at me fiercely.
"What can you do to me? What can you possibly do to me?"
I regretted asking the question not long after, especially when I saw the contemptuous smile on the woman's face.
"This temper won't win me over. I've always preferred obedient women."
I don't care if you like it or not, but when I see you guys, only two words come to mind: trouble!
"Oh, what a boring and arrogant man. I wouldn't take him even if he paid me."
After saying that, I immediately lifted my skirt and ran. I had been practicing my kung fu with Yunzhi for a while, and I had finally regained some of my lightness skills. The feeling of the wind whistling past my ears was really nice.
However, after only a mile, the woman easily caught up with me, smiling, running alongside me with complete ease.
"Now that I've set my sights on you, do you think you can escape?"
Why does this sound so familiar? Please, can you come up with something new? It's one thing that Nangong Ling is uncreative, but I've gotten used to it over the years. He really has no sincerity at all.
"Why didn't you tell me you knew martial arts earlier? You made me run so hard, it was such a waste of my energy."
The woman paused for a moment, "If I had told you first, would you have stopped running away?"
"Why run? You're just asking for trouble. It's not worth it."
She was astonished, staring at me blankly, her eyes wide with surprise.
"You should be glad it's still late winter or early spring. If it were summer, I would definitely play with you guys."
"you……"
"Could you tell me your identities before I go with you?"
I'm actually quite curious. Since we're going to enter the tiger's den, it's best to figure out the situation first.
She flashed an incredibly proud and beautiful smile, "You'll know when you see the master."
I shrugged and followed her into a side alley. "You didn't do anything to the people at Chunhetang, did you?"
"I didn't mean to hurt anyone. I just used a little sleeping potion that people from the Western Regions like to use. It wasn't much, but it was very effective. I just need to get a good night's sleep."
Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but sneer inwardly. If we don't eliminate them now, we'll have to eliminate them one day anyway. Do you still think you're no threat? Being too confident always leads to trouble.
Chapter 85
The person in the highest position sat at the head of the hall, wearing a gold-embroidered crown and a black robe with wide sleeves. His light brown eyes were as deep as a rock, and his eyebrows were raised. In his eyes, everyone was just prey.
When I entered, the main hall was filled with people lying on the ground. I had never seen such a scene before. I was stunned for a moment before I realized that this was the so-called majesty of the imperial family.
"Why aren't you kneeling down when you see the Emperor?" The woman tugged at me, making me half-bow down as if to kneel.
Her knees buckled, but she didn't kneel down. Rong Lian knelt to heaven, to earth, and occasionally to her parents, but she had never knelt to anyone else.
"I didn't want to see him in the first place, so why make things difficult for me?"
A somber silence filled the main hall, growing heavier and heavier, even the thin veil of smoke seemed desolate and heavy.
"Did kneeling before me offend you?" the man asked without even blinking.
It was a feeling of being wronged, but the words that came out of my mouth changed.
"I don't have that habit..."
“Those who are used to being wild never understand the rules.” He said in an extremely calm tone, “Fine, I won’t hold it against you. Do you know why I’ve come to see you?”
"...I don't know." I kept repeating to myself, "I can't afford to offend anyone."
"Hmph, what exactly does Nangong Ling see in you?" His eyes swept over me quickly. "Absolutely nothing to recommend you."
