“Young Master Li.”
Several constables looked at the newcomer, and the aura on their faces diminished considerably. They all bowed their heads respectfully, cupping their hands.
That’s because the identity of the newcomer was notorious to them!
The biological son of Jinzhou prefecture chief Li Chong, Li Yanqing.
He could be seen in the police station every day, and people had to address him as “Young Master.”
After all, he was a genuine troublemaker in the station, not to mention that he often used many strong constables as his lackeys. Could there be anything more outrageous than this?
But no one dared to confront him except his father. Governor Li was busy all day and had no time to deal with his son. As subordinates, they were afraid to complain and could only talk about it behind his back.
So they usually kept their distance from Li Yanqing.
Now, Li Yanqing had already run over and stood in front of the constables. He raised his finger and began scolding.
“Who gave you the guts to arrest my master?!”
“Master?”
The constables looked at each other, bewildered.
Li Yanqing placed his hands on his hips and sneered, “This senior is the new master my father found for me. Don’t you Imow?”
A few constables glanced at each other, obviously unaware of the matter.
“Young Master Li, we really haven’t heard about this.”
“You haven’t heard about it because your rank is too low. If I say there is, there is.” Li Yanqing replied coldly.
Zhao Huai watched the arrogant Li Yanqing in front of him and glanced at the constables’ expressions, which were evidently constipated.
The head constable knew that he absolutely couldn’t offend the young master in front of him; otherwise, he wouldn’t even be able to keep his position. At the same time, this case was very important and not easy to compromise.
So, he could only reluctantly smile apologetically, “Young Master Li, we’re just following the normal procedures…”
“Besides, we didn’t know he was your master. We’re just inviting the shopkeeper over for a chat, and it won’t cause any harm.”
Li Yanqing crossed his arms and refused, his tone resolute.
The constable asked suspiciously.
Li Yanqing said calmly, “I have something to ask the senior. You can’t take him away.”
“But he’s related to a significant case, and it’s difficult to explain to the governor. Please don’t make things difficult for us.” The constable said troubledly.
“I’ll handle it.” Li Yanqing impatiently said.
“Are you trying to take action? Are you still not leaving?”
After exchanging glances, a few constables reluctantly turned around to leave, planning to report back first.
“Senior, my apologies.”
Seeing the constables finally leaving, Li Yanqing turned back and smiled at Zhao Huai, performing a salute.
The difference between his demeanor now and just a moment ago was like night and day.
Zhao Huai leaned against the door, silently watching the entertaining scene unfold, and couldn’t help but smile:
“Your young master’s prestige is quite impressive.”
Li Yanqing shook his head and sighed, “Ah, it’s still nothing compared to you, senior. When will I be able to control swords through the air like you, kill someone within ten steps without getting blood on me? That would be real prestige. ”
“Alright, enough boot-licking. What do you want from me?” Zhao Huai asked with a faint smile.
As soon as this topic was brought up, Li Yanqing’s eyes lit up, and he quickly said, “It has been several days since I last saw you, Senior. You promised to teach me refining qi. I’ve been eagerly waiting, so I took the initiative to come here!”
“I’ve been somewhat busy for the past few days and forgot.”
Zhao Huai explained the reason, then leisurely said:
“This matter is not urgent, and I’ll have some free time in the coming days.
Why not examine your qualifications now?”
“Senior, please check!”
Li Yanqing raised his hand straightforwardly, not caring at all.
Zhao Huai grabbed the young man’s hand, and his True Qi entered Li Yanqing’s body to check him.
However, it was just a moment of contact.
“Eek!
An invisible face of a fox formed out of black smoke screamed sharply and rushed out of Li Yanqing’s meridians. It launched an attack directly at Zhao
Huai.”Hm?”
Zhao Huai squinted his eyes.
At this moment, the [Stable Taoist Mind] destiny in his head suddenly activated.
An invigorating qi gushed out from his mind, merging into the spiritual power barrier formed by the Insanity Technique. The spiritual power expanded until it became like a solid substance, eventually transforming into an ancient bell emitting a deep “dong dong” rumble!
The deafening bell reverberated endlessly, capable of cleansing one’s state of mind and removing demonic nature.
Instantly, the demonic qi in the shape of a fox-face was shattered!
Then, Zhao Huai took out a stack of yellowed talisman papers from the black ring.
He used his hand as a brush and qi as ink.
He began to draw the talisman with a single hand, his movements so fast that only afterimages could be seen.
With the backing of the [Excellence in Talisman Inscription] destiny, Zhao Huai’s proficiency in drawing talismans had risen by another level.
“Senior, what is this…?”
Li Yanqing looked puzzled at the scene unfolding before him, somewhat confused.
Zhao Huai did not respond, but continued drawing talismans.
True Qi at the tip of his fingers glowed brightly, like a lantern.
The intricate patterns on the paper surface were deep and tricky, dancing like a flying dragon.
In just a short moment, two talismans were completed. Without saying anything, Zhao Huai directly pasted them onto the back of Li Yanqing’s neck.
After doing all this, Zhao Huai slowly let go of Li Yanqing’s hand.
“What happened, Senior?”
Only now did Li Yanqing dare to speak up and ask. Zhao Huai frowned and said solemnly: “You have demonic qi within you.”
“Demonic qi?!”
Hearing this word, Li Yanqing’s brain buzzed.
“Yes, a very strong demonic qi.” Zhao Huai nodded slightly and began to explain: “I originally wanted to examine your meridians, but a burst of demonic qi suddenly surged out. I suppressed it with my spiritual power, but it still remains within your body.”
“Senior, what should I do?”
Li Yanqing’s expression was quite painful, resembling a bitter gourd.
Zhao Huai reassured him: “I’ve drawn the Water Thunder Talisman and Earth Suppressing Thunder Talisman to hold down the demonic qi for now. You don’t have to worry for the time being.”
The Water Thunder Talisman and Earth Suppressing Thunder Talisman belonged to the Five Elements Thunder Talisman, basic Taoist talismans, which were sufficient for now.
Although Li Yanqing was relieved after hearing this, he was still puzzled.
‘Why would I have demonic qi inside my body?”
“The demonic qi is very strong and has been lurking within you for some time.” Zhao Huai added.
While contending against the demonic qi earlier, Zhao Huai clearly felt that it carried a hint of peculiar allure. Over time, it could corrode a person’s state of mind.
Seeing Li Yanqing deep in thought, Zhao Huai reminded him.
“Think about it, where have you been recently? Where do you usually go every
“I got it!”
Suddenly, Li Yanqing slapped his head and said in realization: “It must be the
Drunken Flower Tavern!”
“Drunken Flower Tavern?”
Zhao Huai was stunned, but quickly understood.
Wasn’t the Drunken Flower Tavern a brothel?
This kid went to the brothel every day. No wonder he encountered demons. If he wasn’t sucked dry by demons, he would be sucked dry by other stuff.
Li Yanqing recalled: “I remember the Drunken Flower Tavern brought in a group of new girls. One of them was not only extremely seductive but also had a pleasant voice. I went there quite a few times in a row.”
Having thought about it, Li Yanqing laughed bitterly: “Senior, can you eliminate that demon? It would count as getting rid of a menace for the people.”
Zhao Huai stretched lazily and said indifferently:
“Not going, I’m too busy. Why bother with that? Just don’t go to the brothel anymore, problem solved.”
