Li Cu realized that he had gone too far and immediately apologized, promising it would not happen again.
At that moment, Qilang warned, "Miss Sang, there are signs of a struggle!" Although some traces had already been cleaned up, it was evident that time had been insufficient; upon closer inspection, the marks were still visible.
Sang Qingxiao followed Qilang's gaze and noticed fresh drag marks. Not wanting to waste any more time, she chose not to investigate further and continued on her way. However, she suspected that the path the gatekeeper had informed them about was likely a dead end.
Li Cu moved ahead and brought back good news. "Zhang Fan is already kneeling outside the main hall. His Majesty is in a meeting and hasn't summoned him yet."
At the same time, another piece of news arrived: when Zhang Fan saw her, he even wore a provocative smile. Sang Qingxiao's heart sank once more.
Upon arriving outside the main hall, Qi Xiaomian happened to step out just then. As he exited, he ordered someone to tightly close the large doors behind him. He then took a few steps forward and stood directly in front of Zhang Fan.
He opened his mouth to advise, "Just let it go."
Zhang Fan stood up and smiled at him. "You can't stop me."
"There's always a reason for revenge," he continued. "You've avenged your grievances; what more do you want in the palace? There’s no one here who has wronged you. Even if it was Whale Oil and the demon pill, they were unaware of their actions—ignorance is no crime."
"Why cling to this so stubbornly? I sympathize with your plight and even more with your kin. So I'm here to advise you: stop now while there's still room for maneuvering. You've avenged yourself; it's rare to have your life spared. Why not continue living like A Si?"
Zhang Fan scoffed, "I've come this far; how can I back down in front of everyone?"
Qi Xiaomian lowered his voice, "With your strength, you should be able to escape, right?"
"Will you really give me the chance to flee?"
"I'll try my best."
Zhang Fan laughed, "The esteemed Yongxin Marquis has a compassionate side? Many have died at your hands; some have even had more tragic fates than mine. Your so-called sympathy seems like mere calculation to me."
"You don't want us to fight in the palace and harm innocents, do you? Oh wait, just a few deaths—what does it matter? You've already protected those who are important to you; you wouldn't care about others' lives."
"There are many important places in the palace, and beneath lies a Dragon Vein. I guess you're afraid that too much commotion will disturb these secrets and the Dragon Vein."
Qi Xiaomian suppressed his emotions and wore a cold expression without saying a word.
"See? I guessed correctly. The elders say that humans are cunning; I didn't believe it until I ended up in this situation, leading to my clan's destruction—it's my own fault."
I cannot save them, nor can I return to the past. All I can do is seek revenge and reclaim all of their belongings!
If you don't want me to take action, then return my clan's whale oil and demon core!
I can offer you what is available.
Look at your wording, "available," huh? What about what was once ours?
Jingnan, you are making some unreasonable demands.
How can taking back what belongs to our tribe be considered unreasonable? So what if it is? Do you truly believe that our possessions can merge with your human bodies?
