Chapter 220: The Conceited Person (II)

“Oh.” Shi looked at Song coldly. “So your daughter isn’t a great martial artist…”

Song thought that Shi looked a little strange, but he was telling the truth!

So he continued, “My daughter really can’t do great martial arts. My two sons have competed with her and she can’t hold on after thirty moves. My sons’ martial arts can only be treated as second rate, so my daughter’s ability is just-so-so.”

Shi fell silent.

He kept silent for a long time, which brought great pressure to Song.

Time passed by. Finally, Song pursed his lips and said slowly, “Qingzhou, is there anything I don’t know about my daughter?”

Shi still kept silent.

Song felt more and more pressure. Finally, he knelt down slowly. “Your Grace, I really don’t know what my daughter has done. Please enlighten me.”

Looking at the old man kneeling on the ground, Shi’s soft heart was touched and his eyes flickered slightly.

After a moment, Shi said slowly, “Uncle Song, please get up. Let me tell you what your daughter has done. She hurt the womanizer badly, not because that man underestimated her, but because she really has the ability. It is true that the womanizer set the fire in your mansion, but he and your daughter must be related. As for what their relationship is, we still don’t know. Most importantly, your daughter injured a Shadow Guardian, who is the deputy leader of the royal guards. Therefore, Song Cailian is a great martial artist. It’s absolutely not what you said that she’s not powerful at all.”

As Shi spoke, Song got more and more shocked.

“What? Cailian is actually that powerful… She… she has something to do with the womanizer? She… she also hurt a Shadow Guardian? She… How could this be…”

Song couldn’t believe what he had heard.

Looking at him, Shi continued to say, “Uncle Song, I have already told you about your daughter’s problems. Next, we will try to find out what she has done and her secret identity. I hope you can help us with this. If she has really done something she shouldn’t do… for example, if she has betrayed our nation… Uncle Song, I think you know what you should do, right?”

“Betrayed the nation…” Those words really scared Song and his face turned pale.

Shi looked down at him because Song was still kneeling on the ground.

Song’s lips trembled with anger, disappointment and fear. “That silly girl… If she has really done such a stupid thing, I would feel shameless to live in this world…” Song quivered with rage.

After a short silence, Shi said calmly, “Uncle Song, please don’t say that. Ignorance can be forgiven. You must know that I’m trying to get rid of the evil people across our nation. I mean those who are colluding with foreign enemies to hurt our nation. Your daughter, Song Cailian, had better not be one of them. But if she is, I hope you can place righteousness above everything.”

Song shivered and nodded. “I understand!”

Shi waved his hand. “Uncle Song, get up first. I think I have to figure out something. I also need to make some plans…”

Nobody knew how many times Long had looked in the direction of the door.

Of course, he was waiting for Shi to return.

He had been waiting for a long time, but Shi still hadn’t come back!

Long was so anxious that he wanted to fly out with wings to see where his empress was and what he was doing…

As Long was getting more and more impatient, a familiar figure finally appeared in front of him.

“Qingzhou!” Long immediately stood up from his chair and quickly walked to his lover.

The coldness in Shi’s eyes finally disappeared when he saw Long and his face softened.

Long felt that he had waited for Shi for a century!

And his lover finally came back!

Without saying anything, Long wrapped his arms around Shi’s waist…

Shi was slightly stunned and just let Long hold him tightly…

“I’m back. I’m sorry to make you worry.” Shi said gently after a long time.

Long still didn’t let him go.

Shi didn’t know what to do, but he felt very happy. “I’m fine…”

Long slowly released Shi and gave him a glare.

“Why did you come back so late?”

Shi took Long’s hand. “Let’s talk inside.”

Long blinked. Looking at his hand that was being held, Long snorted. “Humph! Don’t think I won’t be angry with you if you take my hand.”

Shi wanted to laugh because sometimes Long really behaved like a child.

But Long’s reaction made him feel relaxed and loved.

Therefore, Shi still held Long’s hand and went inside.

After they sat in the chair, Shi said, “I don’t think Song Qingtian has any problem.”

“Oh?” Long was surprised. “Are you sure?”

Shi nodded slowly. Then, he told Long about their conversation, as well as Song’s performance and reaction…

Long said slowly, “Qingzhou, I believe in your judgement. But if there’s nothing wrong with Song Qingtian, Song Cailian is more suspicious. Who is the master she mentioned?”

“Yes, Song Cailian is very suspicious,” Shi said calmly, “But since we have known that, it will not be difficult to deal with her.”

“Are you going to arrest her at once or find some clues first?” Long immediately asked.

Shi said, “No hurry. I’ll wait for that philanderer to appear again. When the time comes, I’ll arrest both of them!”

Long’s eyes slightly brightened. “Do you have confidence?”

Shi said calmly, “Of course I do. But the martial arts of those two people are very weird. If there is no relatively closed environment, it is impossible to arrest them.”

Hearing those words, Long began to worry. “In this case… the best way is to set a trap. However, I have a feeling that Song Cailian is very clever and bold. I even suspect that she had already known Ying Qiu’s identity before she attacked the Shadow Guardians!”

Shi was stunned. “She had known Ying Qiu’s identity?”

“If Song Cailian is from Eastern Darkness, it is very likely. But I’m not sure whether the master she said is the crown prince or the other two princes.”

Shi pursed his lips slightly. “If she’s really from over there, it is very possible that she had known Ying Qiu’s identity. She should be waiting for us to come.”

“That’s right, and her trying to kill Ying Qiu is actually a provocation to us,” Long said softly.

Shi was inspired. “If she had known his identity and still wanted to kill him, it is indeed a provocation. More than that, she might do something else on her own.”

“That’s right.” Long nodded. “If this is the case, she must be a very conceited person. And it’s easier to deal with such a person.”

Shi said decisively, “A detailed plan is needed.”

Long smiled. “Yes. There’s no rush. Qingzhou, it’s getting dark. Aren’t you hungry?”

After a pause, Shi smiled. “Yes, I’m really hungry.”

“Haha. Okay. Let’s talk after dinner.”

Shi nodded gently. “Okay.”
