Don't mess with the little apprentice sister! She is greedy and immoral

Lao He's expression turned a little strange at this moment: "I followed that trace of blood power, but I found Yun Ya instead."

"!" Qin Zhen's eyebrows suddenly raised, and there was finally a hint of interest in her eyes.

"Not long after Yunniang's 'death', her daughter Xing'er also died. Similarly, the blood power appeared in Yunya again. Once may be a coincidence, but twice?"

"What about the scents of the other missing women in White Night City? Have you confirmed it?"

As expected, Lao He nodded heavily. "I didn't notice it at first, but after Li Yun trained my stall, people often came to eat. One or two regular customers were fine, but at that time, more and more regular customers came. Even if there was only one regular customer every six months, I noticed something was wrong."

"Have you found a way to confirm it?"

"Well, I added something to the ingredients, which allowed me to detect their aura more keenly. Without exception, when they disappeared, their aura would appear on Yunya."

If this is true, then Yun Ya is indeed very suspicious.

"You never confronted him?"

"Confrontation? Oh, do you know why Yunniang gave up her demon pill? Not only did she want to become a human and stay with Yunya, but more importantly, the Baiye City Lord's Mansion has a protective formation that has been set up since ancient times. Ordinary demons will be instantly annihilated if they get close. I can only watch from afar."

"Is it difficult to find a way to get him out?"

"I have tried every possible method I could think of. I even thought about leveling the City Lord's Mansion, but unfortunately the guardian formation was too powerful. It was useless."

"As the city lord, if you never show up, won't the people of White Night City find it strange?"

"The outside world is saying that he fell ill because he missed his wife and daughter. Because Yun Ya was very popular among the people before, when they heard that he was ill and needed to rest, most people expressed understanding."

"How long has he been 'sick'?" Qin Zhen emphasized the word "sick".

Lao He's expression became even stranger at this moment: "Three years."

"Three years?" Qin Zhen suspected that she had heard it wrong.

She thought Yun Ya had been "sick" until now.

"Because three years later, he died of illness."

"he died?"

How can it be!

In the original book, Yun Ya adopted the heroine Su Rui. The heroine isn’t even born yet, so how come he has been dead for more than a hundred years?

It should be more than a hundred years, after all, he was from the same period as Fairy Li Yun.

How could the plot be so different from the original book? Was it some kind of butterfly effect caused by her rebirth?

Perhaps Qin Zhen's expression was too surprised, so Lao He quickly added, "I suspect this is just an excuse. After all, I can feel Yunniang and the others' auras are still in the City Lord's Mansion. If he is really dead, these auras should have disappeared with him, but even now I can still feel their auras."

"Since he's 'dead', there's no new city lord?"

Old He shook his head: "There have been several, but without exception, they all died, and no one dared to be the city lord anymore."

"..."

Unexpectedly, it makes sense.

"So, I have to go into the City Lord's Mansion." Qin Zhen quickly clarified her goal.

"I have commissioned some familiar immortals to go there. They are all very famous, but they didn't find anything."

"Yeah, so I never thought about entering the City Lord's Mansion normally."

"Hmm?" Lao He didn't understand what Qin Zhen meant for a moment.

"I'm going to disappear for a while."

"...Are you sure?" Lao He looked disapproving.

"Why do you think that even though we were in the same room, my brothers and sisters kept disappearing, but I was still in the room and nothing happened?"

"Because... they are better looking?" Lao He said uncertainly.

It hurts my heart, old man.

"What about Elder Qi from Miaoyin Pavilion who disappeared? Is it also because she is pretty?"

Hearing this, Old He couldn't really praise Elder Qi for being young and beautiful: "She... probably has other reasons."

Qin Zhen narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw this.

Lao He's reaction...

He knew Elder Qi from Miaoyin Pavilion.

Almost instantly, Qin Zhen made a judgment in her mind.

After all, she only mentioned a name but did not provide a portrait of Elder Qi, yet he gave the answer without even thinking.

"I want information about all the missing women. You have it, right?" Although it sounded like a question, Qin Zhen's tone was more affirmative than ever before.

Sure enough, Lao He really had detailed records. He took out a jade disc and handed it to Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen touched it lightly with her forehead, and the information about these people instantly entered her mind.

suddenly--

Qin Zhen suddenly opened her eyes.

"Sure enough."

"What do you know?"

"Did Elder Qi also visit your stall today?"

"Yeah, a little earlier than you guys."

"I see. Can you lend me something?"

"what?"

Qin Zhen's eyes fell on the moonlit sand under her feet: "I want the fragments of the Buddha's magic weapon."

"!" Old He was a little surprised when he heard this, as if he didn't expect Qin Zhen to see through this defensive magic weapon at a glance.

"besides--"

"What else?"

"Your demon pill."

"!!!" Lao He suddenly raised his head and looked into Qin Zhen's eyes, wanting to confirm whether she was joking.

However, no.

There was only seriousness in those eyes.

Lao He did not reply immediately, although before deciding to tell everything, Lao He was prepared to use the demon pill to exchange for trust.

However, when the moment really came, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

Not consciously, but instinctively.

After all, the demon pill is more important than the cultivator's golden pill and life. He instinctively wants to protect himself and not fall into a dangerous and passive situation.

but--

For the sake of the truth, he was willing to overcome this instinct.

"...Okay, I promise you."

Old He took a deep breath and took out the fragments of the Buddhist's magic weapon from the moonlight sand.

The fragment was very small, only the size of a little fingernail.

Qin Zhen took it and swallowed the fragment in one gulp without thinking.

Everything happened too suddenly, so suddenly that Lao He didn't even react to what Qin Zhen had done.

By the time he reacted, Qin Zhen had gone from one to two.

The newly copied one has no soul, but is just a shell, with a pair of eyes that are still cross-eyed, and looks somewhat "wise".

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Lao He went crazy.

He screamed and grabbed Qin Zhen's shoulders, shaking them back and forth frantically: "You ate it? You actually ate it!? Are you sick? Are you sick!?"

Qin Zhen's head hurt from being shaken by him, and she couldn't help it and lifted Lao He horizontally over her head.

Lao He was suddenly lifted up and couldn't shake anyone anymore: "???"
