The Whale Demon indeed had a serving spirit named A Si by its side, but A Si was merely a Suction Fish. This creature was fickle; it would leave for a more suitable host without so much as a goodbye if it found one. During its service, however, it was particularly attentive and flattering, as if the heavens themselves would favor it. This behavior led many unsuspecting hosts to let down their guard around it.
Such a duplicitous being would have fled at the first sign of danger; how could it possibly seek revenge for a temporary master? Moreover, in terms of appearance, this fish demon was small and rather plain-looking. In contrast, A Si, who sang beautifully, though somewhat frail, had an impressive appearance.
So who exactly was he?
Old Vine shrugged.
Sang Qingxiao verified the stories she had heard from A Si with Old Vine, and they matched up. However, this only deepened their confusion regarding his identity.
Old Vine remarked that they needed to keep a closer eye on that impostor. He feared that he might suddenly cause some major upheaval. They couldn't let Xiao Ye go; he struggled to articulate his thoughts and might have already been discovered. It would be better if he kept watch.
Li Cu will accompany you; her strength can protect you.
Though the two had just quarreled, they were still family and needed to prioritize their safety.
Old Vine continued, asking about Ling Qian's situation. When would she die? As long as she and the Ling Family were alive, he wouldn't feel at ease.
Just then, they heard Yong Huai's anxious shout coming from the Small Tavern.
Sang Qingxiao hurriedly circled around the Small Tavern. What had happened?
Ling Qian is dead!
Sang Qingxiao was somewhat surprised; it happened so quickly! They had set up a series of plans, and they hadn't even completed half of them before someone died! It seemed too easy to kill her.
After her initial shock, she quickly regained her composure. Wasn't she supposed to die anyway? Why all the fuss? Had it been confirmed? Was she really dead?
Uh, there wasn't time to confirm; she looked dead enough.
Sang Qingxiao shot him a glance. You should have confirmed before coming here.
Things happened too fast; I didn't have time to check! At that moment, I was single-mindedly focused on retrieving the talisman coated with the medicine, but unfortunately, I couldn't get my hands on it.
Yong Huai looked pale with fear. Miss Sang, your medicine is quite potent; won't it expose us?
Seeing Yong Huai's slightly terrified expression, Sang Qingxiao couldn't help but laugh. Don't worry; I won't let you down. At most, they'll discover its calming effects. Just pretend nothing happened and don't worry about retrieving the medicine again.
The enticing potion was derived from Mei'er's pharmacological manual. Old Vine had made improvements based on the text, making the drug safer and more discreet.
That’s good.
Yong Huai Xin felt somewhat relieved and finally shared the news about the Second Prince's Residence with Sang Qingxiao.
It was then that Sang Qingxiao realized why Ling Qian had died so quickly.
