Li Lingsu: I'm about to comprehend Supreme Forgetfulness of Emotion

Miao Youfang followed the burly man to the stairs on the right side of the gambling hall and went up to the second floor.

The burly man stopped in front of a private room and knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

A deep, resonant voice, typical of middle-aged men, came from inside.

The burly man pushed open the door, stood still, and gestured for Miao Youfang to come inside.

The room was elegantly decorated, with a display shelf on the east side displaying porcelain vases, jade artifacts, and antique treasures. The south walls were covered with calligraphy and paintings by famous artists.

On the east side, there was a soft couch with a tea table in the middle. A robust middle-aged man sat beside the tea table, dressed in a blue robe embroidered with cloud patterns, exuding an air of refined elegance and wealth. However, his demeanor was sharp and powerful, with the physique of a martial artist that supported his robe.

It seemed rather incongruous.

He was holding a purple clay teapot, pouring steaming tea into a cup. He picked up the cup, took a sip, and slowly looked at Miao Youfang.

May I ask your esteemed name?

"Miao Youfang."

The middle-aged man nodded. "You can call me Second Master, that's what my friends in the underworld call me."

He paused, then asked, "Which part of Yongzhou?"

Miao Youfang didn't answer, but asked directly, "What does Second Master want with me?"

The middle-aged man wasn't angry; he said calmly:

"You've won quite a bit, so know when to quit while you're ahead. Don't come to my gambling den again. If you agree, we're friends. If you get into trouble in Yongzhou City, just mention my name."

"I still have that much face to save."

Actually, it was just flattery. While someone like Second Master might seem remarkable to ordinary people, in the eyes of real gangs and Lineage, he was just a big hoodlum.

He had some money, supported a dozen or so people, and had business dealings with certain government officials.

A powerful force like Dragon God Fortress could wipe out the Six-Bet Casino with a mere yawn. Moreover, the martial arts tournament is currently being held in Yongzhou, bringing together heroes from all walks of life.

Most of the Rogue Person in the martial arts world are masters of killing one person in eighteen battles, leaving no trace for a thousand miles.

That's someone a gambling den owner can't afford to mess with.

Miao Youfang laughed and said, "Making friends is fine, and you can let me leave if you want, but there's something I'd like to ask Second Master."

The middle-aged man looked at him with a detached expression.

Miao Youfang rubbed his dark face and asked:

"When I first arrived in Yongzhou City, yesterday, I passed by the yamen gate and saw a woman burning paper money and wailing. The yamen officials drove her away and beat her."

"I couldn't stand by and watch, so I asked what had happened. The woman said her husband's name was Zhang Hei, and he loved to gamble. Not long ago, Zhang Hei was murdered on his way back from the gambling den, and all his money disappeared."

The middle-aged man's face turned cold, and his gaze gradually turned icy. "What do you want to say?"

Miao Youfang stared at him. "The woman said that the night watchman saw the murderer's appearance; it was someone from the Liubo gambling den. Originally, the watchman planned to testify in court, but for some reason, he changed his mind."

Miao Youfang leaned forward, looking into the middle-aged man's eyes:

"Today I gathered some information, such as that Zhang Hei is quite skilled at gambling and often wins money at the Liubo gambling den, where he won over two hundred taels of silver that day. Also, the night watchman changed his mind because he received a sum of money from you as hush money."

The middle-aged man slowly stood up. He was a head taller than Miao Youfang, and looking down at him disdainfully, he said:

"Kid, what do you want to say? What do you want to do? Seek justice for Zhang Hei? Go to the yamen and sue me?"

Miao Youfang shook his head. "The government won't get involved in this matter, because you've already taken care of everything."

The middle-aged man burst into laughter, his face full of disdain and mockery. "Since you know that..."

A cold glint flashed in his pupils, and then he saw the mist of blood spurting from his own neck.

The middle-aged man clutched his neck and staggered towards the door. After a few steps, he collapsed to the ground, struggled wildly for a few moments, and then fell silent.

Miao Youfang carefully sheathed the dagger, picked up the purple clay teapot, poured the boiling tea over his hands, then wiped the blood from his face with his soaked hands, and said calmly:

"Paying back debts and paying back murderers are fundamental principles. If the government won't take care of it, I will."

Green Apricot Garden.

Two maids were taking apart the quilt cover and sheets while the stunningly beautiful woman was sunbathing in the courtyard.

They began to whisper among themselves.

"Oh dear, this is even more absurd than the night before."

"Yes, yes, the sheets are soaked."

"Let me tell you, they stayed inside all day yesterday, without eating breakfast, lunch, or dinner."

"That man was really something, but if I were a man, I'd also want to die on that girl's belly. I've never seen such a beautiful person in my life."

"Isn't this lady the truly formidable one? If it were you, you wouldn't even be able to walk, no, you wouldn't even be able to get out of bed."

Luo Yuheng sat cross-legged in the courtyard, a blush rising on her beautiful face, but it was quickly replaced by a sorrowful expression.

Why hasn't Xu Qi'an returned yet? If he doesn't come back by midnight, I'll be burned to death by karmic fire! Thinking of this, Luo Yuheng felt a wave of fear.

She is "fear," one of the seven emotions.

Inside the inn.

Li Lingsu sat cross-legged on the bed, breathing in and out the breath to nourish her Primordial Spirit, and then using her Primordial Spirit to nourish her physical body.

After an unknown amount of time, he opened his eyes, ending his meditation for the day.

"That's great, my kidneys aren't hurting as much anymore."

He rubbed his side and could feel that the slight throbbing pain had lessened considerably.

"Once my cultivation is restored, as long as I control my sexual activity, with my fourth-grade cultivation, I will never suffer from kidney deficiency again."

For the past six months, his cultivation had been sealed, preventing him from breathing exercises to nourish his body. Every night, he was also subjected to the repeated exploitation by the Dongfang sisters. Even a god couldn't withstand that.

"That damned Xu Qian! Not only did he have an affair with Luo Yuheng, but even the Princess Consort of Zhenbei was his woman. So the Great Feng is called Mu Nanzhi. Who else does he have in the capital? Who are they? Damn it, I can't think about it, the more I think about it, the more unbalanced I feel."

Xu Qian forcibly banished the images of Luo Yuheng and Mu Nanzhi's stunning beauty from his mind.

He got out of bed, put on his boots, and planned to go to Qingxing Garden to relay the information reported by Gongsun Xiangyang to Xu Qian.

Just then, he heard footsteps stop outside the door, followed by two knocks on the door.

Li Lingsu opened the door, and the visitor was none other than Xu Qian.

"Senior, I really have to come find you!"

Li Lingsu gave him a complicated look and led him into the house.

Xu Qi'an stepped over the threshold, sat down at the table, took the tea poured by Li Lingsu, and took a sip.

"Huh, this kid didn't poison it?" he thought with some regret.

"Have you found the Buddhist School monk I asked you to investigate?" Xu Qi'an put down his teacup.

Li Lingsu shook her head regretfully. "I couldn't find where the Buddhist School monks were staying, but strangely enough, I couldn't find any monks from the Gongsun Lineage either. I suspect they weren't staying at the inn at all. Buddhist School has no shortage of places to accommodate living people, and there are Law Treasure like pagodas."

"After all, you mentioned, senior, that a Luohan has come to Yongzhou City this time."

"That possibility cannot be ruled out." Xu Qi'an nodded, not too disappointed. If he wanted to lure out the Buddhist School monks, knowing their whereabouts would be the best option.

But if we can't find it, it doesn't matter.

After all, if he were to appear in public, Buddhist School monks would swarm him like sharks smelling blood. And, of course, his inhuman subordinates.

Asking Li Lingsu and the Gongsun family to help find Buddhist School monks was merely his way of gaining more control; it wasn't the core of his plan.

"However, Gongsun Xiangyang said that they've made progress on the guy those Qingzhou guys are looking for," Li Lingsu said.

"Have you found the host of the dragon energy?" Xu Qi'an's eyes lit up slightly. "Tell me about it."

"Gongsun Xiangyang said that a murder occurred at the Liubo gambling den this afternoon. The gambling den owner, Chen Er, was killed. The murderer is the young man that Qingzhou Lao wanted to kill. Some gamblers saw him being taken upstairs by the gambling den staff."

"Less than fifteen minutes later, he went downstairs and left, and the gambling den owner's body was later discovered."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qi'an frowned deeply and almost pinched the bridge of his nose.

Those dragon energy hosts, one or two of them, are all no good.

It's not that dragon energy can't reside in bad people; after all, those who achieve great things cannot be measured by simple good and evil.

However, the dragon energy hosts he encountered were either thugs or mentally ill patients, and now a ruthless wandering swordsman has emerged.

"Interestingly, the gambling den owner was involved in a murder case not long ago. However, it's still too early to determine whether Chen Er's death is related to that murder case."

Li Lingsu glanced at Xu Qian, whose expression remained as calm and composed as ever. He did not seem pleased that Luo Yuheng and the princess were now his women.

Sigh, Senior Xu has never boasted about anything. I was just too sensitive and jealous. But any man would be jealous if he knew about his relationship with Luo Yuheng and the most beautiful woman in Great Feng. Li Lingsu sighed silently, her feelings complicated.

It was then that he noticed Xu Qian seemed to have aged considerably.

It's highly unusual to see such a haggard appearance on a martial artist in the Transcendent Realm.

Li Lingsu didn't think much of it and continued, "However, that guy is very sharp. Gongsun Xiangyang's men couldn't keep up with him and were shaken off halfway. This means that he is at least at the Spirit Refining Realm. Also, Gongsun Xiangyang asked me to ask you if you could pass this news on to those Qingzhou guys."

The Holy Son was still unaware of Ji Xuan and the others' true identities.

Xu Qi'an pondered for a moment, "Even if we don't say anything, the Qingzhou people will still be looking for him in Yongzhou City. We might as well do them a favor and gain their trust. Anyway, we don't know where that person is."

However, once it is confirmed that he is in Yongzhou and appears at the Liubo gambling den, then the approximate location of this dragon energy host can be easily determined.

Xu Qi'an planned to personally go and search around, relying on his own sense of dragon energy to find the other party and obtain the dragon energy before the Buddhist School and the Heavenly Mystery Palace.

After their conversation, Xu Qi'an took his leave.

As he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned back, and asked, "By the way, do you still have any kidney-tonifying or aphrodisiac medicine on you?"

He pounded his back and sighed, "My back is too weak!"

Li Lingsu's face suddenly stiffened.

What did you do to Luo Yuheng?

What did you do to the princess?

Go die, go die, go die, go die!!!

Li Lingsu said expressionlessly, "Senior, is there anything else? I'm about to comprehend the Supreme Forgetfulness, please don't disturb me."

"I won't upset the child anymore, otherwise, after a while, he might become sworn brothers with Yang Qianhuan in the Peach Garden. "Xu Qi'an smiled, opened the door, and left.
