Seeing Chen Qingzhu coming out of the temple, he looked her up and down with a pair of frivolous eyes, as if he was quite satisfied with her appearance, so his expression softened slightly.

"Didn't I ask Ci'an to come and welcome me personally? Where is she? Don't think that sending me a new thing will easily offset her mistake of acting on her own initiative."

It was obvious that he regarded Chen Qingzhu as a plaything sent by Ci'an to quell his anger.

As a woman, Chen Qingzhu naturally hated such scrutiny. But in her eyes, Li Qianhu was just a pawn, the kind that would be dealt with after being used, so she could temporarily ignore such disrespect.

"I think the person Lord Li wants to see should be the real controller of this Taoist temple, not necessarily Ci'an herself."

She said quietly.

Captain Li felt something was wrong:

"What do you mean?"

"Just as you thought, I am now the one in charge of this Cihang Temple."

Captain Li's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he drew out the sword from his waist and pointed it at Chen Qingzhu, with a sinister look on his face:

"If you dare to touch my property, I think you don't want to live anymore!"

Chen Qingzhu remained unmoved, and even showed a faint smile:

"Captain Li, why do you have to shout for war? If you feel sorry for your old lover and want to vent your anger on him, I have nothing to say. But if you are here for profit, you might as well come down and talk in detail."

According to Huiyun, Captain Li and Ci'an did have a romantic relationship.

But if we talk about feelings, according to the thinking of men nowadays, if Captain Li really valued Ci'an, he should have brought her into the mansion and given her a legitimate status long ago, instead of letting her get entangled with all kinds of people outside.

Captain Li narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at a woman seriously for the first time.

He rode on a tall and strong military horse, and was much taller than Chen Qingzhu in both momentum and height. Add to that the soldiers he led and the knife in his hand, and a normal person would have been scared out of his wits.

But the woman in front of him showed no fear at all, and was even as imposing as him.

Ci'an was able to support such a large Jingci Temple, so she was not a simple person. But this woman easily took power from Ci'an and prevented her from sending messages for a long time, which only showed that this woman was even more extraordinary.

From what the woman said, it seemed that she didn't want to go against him, but rather wanted to cooperate with him, so he might as well listen to what she said first.

"If you can't negotiate something that satisfies this thousand households, you will die today without a burial place!"

He uttered a harsh word and then put away his sword.

Faced with his threats, Chen Qingzhu remained indifferent and just raised his hand in a gesture of invitation.

Captain Li dismounted and walked towards the Taoist temple. His followers wanted to follow him in, but Chen Qingzhu turned around and stopped them.

"This matter is confidential, it is best if only Qianhu knows about it."

Captain Li also didn't think that Chen Qingzhu had the ability to hurt him, so he raised his hand to stop his followers and followed Chen Qingzhu through the front hall into the main hall.

Today, there is only a statue of Guanyin in the main hall, and nothing else, and the only door open is the one in the middle.

The two men stepped into the hall and walked several steps to the left. Chen Qingzhu suddenly turned around, drew out the sword from Li Qianhu's waist with lightning speed, and slashed Li Qianhu's arm directly with the sword.

"what--"

Captain Li screamed and glared at Chen Qingzhu fiercely:

"Bitch, how dare you hurt me--"

Chen Qingzhu still had that light smile on his face, and threw the sword in his hand:

"Why are you so impatient, Qianhu? This is exactly what I want to discuss with you in detail. This matter sounds bizarre, and if you hadn't experienced it yourself, I'm afraid you wouldn't believe it."

Captain Li's anger froze instantly. Although he was gritting his teeth in pain, he could only grit his teeth and say:

"What bizarre things do you have to do to hurt people!"

Chen Qingzhu said:

"Please show me your injured hand."

Captain Li suppressed his anger and stretched out his hand, secretly swearing in his heart that if she could not give him a satisfactory answer, he would cut this woman who dared to hurt her with a knife into pieces.
