Inside the house, Qin Junyi picked up the cloth in the basin, wrung it out and wiped his face randomly to refresh his skin that had been soaked in cold sweat just now.

There was a dense pain in my back, but the cane was only halfway through.

However, Wanwan became alert and could not continue no matter what. The only way is to punish yourself by delaying the recovery time without using any medicine.

When Su Yunwan's consciousness flew to the front yard, Qin Junyi had already turned off the lights and gone to bed.

She looked through the half-open window and saw no one.

After thinking for a while, he floated into the house and stepped closer to the figure lying on the bed.

"Who!" Suddenly, Qin Junyi shouted sharply, opened the curtain and stood up, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, looking directly in the direction of his spiritual consciousness with murderous intent.

Su Yunwan was startled and instantly withdrew his consciousness.

The shadow guard in the darkness leaped in from the window and stood in front of Qin Junyi with his sword, "Master, what happened?"

Qin Junyi closed his eyes and felt the prying eyes disappear. He felt relieved when he thought of something and said calmly: "Nothing happened."

Lying back on the bed, he began to feel scared.

If he hadn't sent Wu Shaohan and Qin Mu away and Wanwan had caught him applying the medicine...

On the other side, Su Yunwan stroked his chest, his heart beating hard.

That look full of murderous intent reminded her of what was described in the storybook, "just one look can scare the enemy into fleeing hastily." He was indeed a majestic general who had been on the battlefield for a long time.

Suddenly, her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly.

In the past, her wood-type abilities were mostly used to catalyze the growth of plants to provide food and heal the wounded. Under special circumstances, she controlled plant attack and defense.

But when she returned to the Great Zhou Dynasty, she discovered more than once that those with high martial arts skills could sense danger in advance and avoid plant attacks. Even the prying of mental power can be detected.

This made her, who had never used supernatural powers as weapons, feel even more powerless.

Now that her powers have been upgraded, she has enough spiritual power to control plants for her own use, and all plants can become soldiers in her hands.

But the most effective way to deal with the current high-level warriors is to condense the wood elements in the air to form a sharp blade invisible to the naked eye, which can surprise the enemy with one move.

Thinking of this, Su Yunwan used her hands to make secrets, condensing the wood elements contained in the air into different forms, swords, spears, axes, hammers, knives, sticks, needles...

One weapon after another appeared in the air, combined with the basic moves recorded in the martial arts secret book, and under the influence of mental power, he practiced eighteen martial arts over and over again.

It wasn't until dawn that she realized the passage of time, touched her belly, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

At the same time, Zhao Keyan woke up from her sleep and heard the slight sound of swords coming from the west direction when she first entered the easternmost room of the mansion.

Is he still practicing his sword?

Last night, she fell asleep to the sound of swords, and the whole night passed, and she still hadn't stopped.

Driven by curiosity, she dressed neatly, picked up a cup of tea, and walked towards the small courtyard to the west.

Through the moon gate, she saw a figure practicing swordsmanship.

He held a long sword in his hand, which made a crisp sound as he danced with his body.

The sword light poured down like the Milky Way, and the cold light dotted the night like stars.

In the cold wind, Qin Mu was wearing a half-open inner jacket, and her long hair was lifted by the cold wind, revealing her smooth neck and collarbone. The perfect lines and rainbow-like momentum made Zhao Keyan stunned.

Suddenly, a cold eye shot straight at him, and the next moment, the tip of the sword pierced his face, pointing directly at his throat.

Zhao Keyan was so frightened that her hands let go, and the tea cup rolled to the ground, making a series of crisp sounds.

"Third...Third Young Master." Zhao Keyan lowered her eyes and looked at the tip of the sword so close at hand, her forehead soaked with cold sweat.

Looking at the stunning beauty who was so frightened that her face turned pale, Qin Mu raised her eyebrows and said coldly: "What are you doing here?"

"I saw that Third Young Master has been practicing swordplay all night, so I will give you a cup of tea to soothe your throat." Zhao Keyan hurriedly explained the purpose of her visit.

Seeing that Qin Mu's momentum was slightly weakened, she smiled and stretched out two onion-like fingers, trying to move the cold sword in front of her throat, but she was afraid that the sharp blade would cut her skin, so she stopped in mid-air.

This hesitant expression and behavior are slightly funny and cute.

Qin Mu looked at her deeply, put away the sword and stood with his hands behind his back, saying coldly: "Thank you, no need."

After saying that, he picked up the robe lying aside, put it on himself casually, and returned to Erjin's house with his sword in hand.

Zhao Keyan looked at his leaving figure, feeling suddenly empty for some reason.

She held her hot cheeks in her hands, took a long breath, and knelt down to pick up the broken tea cup.

Suddenly, her fingertips hurt, and she quickly retracted her hand absentmindedly. She saw that her fingertips were pricked by sharp fragments, and bright red blood emerged from the wound, forming a small drop of blood.

"Yan'er? Why are you here?"

Like yesterday, Zhao Yongfu got up early to cook. When he saw his little daughter squatting in front of the moon gate, he expressed doubts.

"Dad." Zhao Keyan stood up and hid her injured hand behind her back.

Zhao Yongfu looked at the fragments of the tea cup at her feet, frowned and said, "Is your hand cut? Show it to dad."

"I just got stabbed. I'm going to get a broom to clean it up." Zhao Keyan was afraid that he would ask again, so she ran away as if running away.

Zhao Yongfu shook his head and went to the kitchen to cook.

Not long after, Zhao Keyan came in from the door, "Dad, let me light the fire."

"No, you can go sleep for a while."

"I'm not sleepy anymore."

Zhao Keyan sat in front of the kitchen door, stuffing firewood while talking about the Qin family and inquiring about Qin Mu without leaving any trace.

However, Zhao Yongfu didn't know much about Qin Mu. He only knew that Qin Mu was called the third brother by his master, but when facing other Qin family members, he regarded himself as an outsider, "Perhaps, he is General Qin's adopted brother."

"Brother-in-law..." Zhao Keyan looked at the flames in the stove thoughtfully.

By the time breakfast was ready, it was already dawn.

Everyone in the Qin family got up and washed up. After greeting the old lady, they gathered in the hall to prepare for the meal.

Qin Junyi learned that Su Yunwan was still awake and entered the main room with a worried look.

Looking at his wife who was sleeping soundly on the bed, he quietly left the room and asked Zhao Kerong: "Didn't your wife sleep well last night?"

Zhao Kerong, who was sleeping on the couch in the outer room, said, "I didn't hear any movement in the inner room."

Qin Junyi's heart skipped a beat: Could it be that Wanwan went out at night?

He finished the morning meal with everyone thoughtfully, and then informed everyone on the spot: "The second brother escaped and was claimed to have been assassinated by an assassin."

Soon, mourning flags were hung at the main door of the main house, and the main hall in the front yard was decorated as a mourning hall, with an empty coffin placed in the middle.

Everyone in the Qin family put on their white belts and pretended to be sad.

Su Yunwan was awakened by the mourning in the front yard, her heart tightened, and she quickly got out of bed.

"Wan Wan, are you awake?" Zhao Kerong, who was waiting outside, heard the noise and walked in.

Su Yunwan asked hurriedly: "What's going on outside?"

Zhao Kerong told her what Qin Junyi announced, and said: "Official officials and people from the Chu family came to express their condolences one after another."

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp cry and curse came from the front yard: "You traitor! You really dare to harm your siblings, how could I give birth to a scoundrel like you!!!"
