He had interacted with Ding Chunqiu in Yunnan's Five Poison sect before. Later on, Ding Chunqiu had hired him as a guest of the Stickler Department, and he was Zi's master — Constellation Immortal Ding Chunqiu!
Song Qingshu hadn't seen him for a long time. He didn't expect to see him in Western Xia. But then again, it made sense. The Sea of Constellations was in the west, and he had seen Ding Chunqiu with Duan Yanqing at Five Poison sect. He seemed to have heard that Ding Chunqiu had joined Class One Hall?
"Just who is this woman?" Song QingShu looked at the woman's graceful figure and really couldn't remember who this person was. What surprised him even more was that Ding Chunqiu's attitude in front of her seemed to be somewhat reserved, as if she was extremely respectful.
Because he and Qin Hongmian were at the pool below the waterfall, the mist and the surrounding plants made it difficult for them to be discovered. Ding Chunqiu and Ding Chunqiu stood at a higher place and were more conspicuous. In the end, they were seen by Qin Hongmian, who had a lower level of martial arts.
"They're coming down." Qin Hongmian covered her mouth and gasped. It turned out that the two figures were flying down from the waterfall. Even though the waterfall wasn't very high, it was clear that their lightness skills were high to be able to fly down with such ease.
"Let's hide for a while." If it was just Song Qingshu alone, there was no need to hide. However, there was still Qin Hongmian in the water without any clothes on. If they really clashed later, it was hard to guarantee that Ding Chunqiu wouldn't see something he shouldn't. And if the other party spread the news of them being together, it was hard to guarantee that it wouldn't become a huge scandal. After all, the ability of people to add fuel to the fire and spread gossip was equally exaggerated, regardless of whether it was ancient or modern people.
Fortunately, Qin Hongmian had chosen to bathe behind a large rock in order to hide. With this rock as a cover, they wouldn't be discovered by the two coming down.
Song Qingshu hid behind the rock, while Qin Hongmian sank into the water, only her head above the surface. The two of them were only one or two meters apart.
"Just don't make a sound. I've used my true energy to isolate our auras. They won't be able to discover us." Song Qingshu turned around to comfort Qin Hongmian. In the end, he almost had a nosebleed.
Although the water in the pool was very clear and wouldn't be seen in the dark, Song Qingshu's eyesight was very powerful. As long as there was a glimmer of light, he could see things in the dark as if it was daytime.
At this moment, Qin Hongmian instinctively covered her chest with her hands, but all she could see was snow white. How could her arms block it?
Song Qingshu hurriedly averted his gaze and once again chanted the Heart Cleansing Kindness Mantra in his heart. Sensing his unusual movements, Qin Hongmian turned her head with a puzzled expression. However, she didn't have good eyesight and couldn't see his current expression clearly.
"Is that medicine of yours really effective?" Suddenly, a woman's voice came from not far away. Her voice was very gentle and sweet.
Song Qingshu was taken aback and stretched out his head to look in that direction. He saw that the woman was dressed entirely in white, but unfortunately her face was covered by an opaque white silk, so he could not see her face clearly. Even so, the exposed features were very beautiful, and her figure was slender and graceful. Under the mountain breeze, her skirt fluttered, and she really looked like a fairy.
"Whether it's her voice or her figure, this woman doesn't look very old. But why is her cultivation so profound?" Song Qingshu counted the women he knew. Other than the young girl Ah Qing who was like a sword immortal, the only other person who could reach this level of cultivation at such a young age was probably Dongfang Muxue. Who was this woman in front of him? How could she cultivate her martial arts to such a level?
"Hehe," Ding Chunqiu chuckled, "The Yin Yang Harmony Powder can turn a virgin into a slut. How could it be ineffective?"
Song Qingshu was startled. From what they were saying, it seemed that the poison Qin Hongmian was poisoned with was provided by the Poison Grandmaster, Ding Chunqiu. No wonder it was so overbearing.
Wait, why did the name Yin Yang Harmony Powder sound so familiar?
Song Qingshu finally remembered. Back then, Mu Wanqing seemed to have also been poisoned with this kind of poison. He didn't expect that it would be Qin Hongmian's turn this time. This mother and daughter pair really had a troubled life.
He subconsciously glanced at the woman beside him and discovered that her phoenix-like eyes were filled with killing intent. Clearly, she had also understood. He hurriedly transmitted his voice over, "Madam, please don't be impatient. Let's listen to what's going on first before we decide."
What kind of joke was this? Either of the two people outside could take care of Qin Hongmian with a single finger. Would she be sending herself to her death if she went out?
Hearing his words, Qin Hongmian nodded helplessly.
"I've secretly observed that Qin Hongmian once. Although she's a little hot-tempered, it can't be denied that she's a stunning beauty. Li Yuanhao has gotten lucky tonight," the veiled woman said with a faint smile.
Ding Chunqiu waved the Carefree Fan in his hand and smiled flatteringly, "In front of you, who would dare to be called a stunning beauty? En."
The veiled woman snorted, "Your flattery skills aren't very good. I still have self-awareness. Although I wasn't afraid when I was young, now … Sigh, since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals. They're not allowed to see the world until their hair turns white."
Ding Chunqiu hurriedly said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask anyone on the street. Let's see who doesn't say that you're only seventeen or eighteen years old."
The veiled woman laughed and scolded him, "It's the middle of the night. There's no one on the street. You sure know how to play tricks, you old thing."
At that moment, Song Qingshu was in a state of confusion in the wind. Based on what she said, the woman was actually very old, and she wasn't just an ordinary old woman. He had thought that she was a young girl just now.
It was really difficult to judge the age of a woman in a martial arts world. Song Qingshu could not help but remember a novel he had read before. Empress Yin Zhu Yuyan of Yin Weed Faction was clearly an old woman in her eighties, but she looked like a sister to Bi An. She was just a young girl in her teens or twenties.
"Oh my god. Even if it's a martial arts world, we can't ignore science." Song Qingshu was a person who came from a mature scientific system in the future. It was very difficult for him to understand this phenomenon that was against science. However, when he thought about the qi in this world and the martial arts that allowed people to fly in the sky and travel underground, he felt that it was very difficult to explain using science, and he felt slightly at ease.
Right now, he was even more curious about the veiled woman's identity. Based on the various information he gathered from their conversation, this woman's identity was obvious. She was one of the three legends of Xiaoyao Faction — Goddess Li Qiushui!
When he thought about how she was Li Qingluo's mother and could be considered his mother-in-law to a certain extent, Song Qingshu wondered if he should go out and greet her. However, he could predict that it would most likely cause a fight. After all, Li Qingluo's true identity was Madam Wang, not Lady Song.
"What's going on with me recently? Why do I keep running into these mothers-in-law?" Glancing at Qin Hongmian beside him, Song Qingshu's expression was a little strange. Should he go to the streets to have his fortune read and change his luck?
"That Li Yuanhao doesn't have long to live, right?" Ding Chunqiu, who was not far away, suddenly chuckled. "When that time comes, the throne will fall into Qian Shun's hands."
As soon as these words came out, the two people hiding in the dark were shocked. They did not expect to accidentally hear such a big conspiracy. Could it be that these two people wanted to kill the king?
"He's old and feels that his energy is not as good as before. Seeing that I've been the same for decades, he specifically asked me for advice on the art of eternal youth." Li Qiushui's tone had an additional hint of sarcasm.
Ding Chunqiu sneered. "There's no such thing as an art of eternal youth. It's just because one's martial arts has reached a certain level."
"That's not necessarily true." Li Qiushui chuckled. "The martial arts that your Martial Uncle has learned are the genuine divine arts of eternal youth."
Ding Chunqiu smiled sheepishly. "She has cultivated to the appearance of a demon that will never grow up. How can she compare to you?"
Song Qingshu secretly curled his lips. You people will never know how powerful the attraction of a legal loli is to the gentlemen of the later generations.
Hearing the other ridicule his lifelong enemy, Li Qiushui was also quite happy. After chuckling for a while, he then changed the topic. "Li Yuanhao is the ruler of a country after all. Since he came to my door, I couldn't refuse him. So I casually taught him a set of martial arts. He treated it like a treasure, but he didn't know it was just a brilliant bedroom technique."
Ding Chunqiu also echoed. "During this period of time, he showed off his masculinity in bed. He felt as if he had returned to his youth. He thought that it was because he had succeeded in his martial arts, but he didn't know that it was burning up what little energy he had left."
"This is the only way he can completely separate himself from me. When Qian Shun inherits the throne, no one will be able to find any excuses," Li Qiushui continued. "But I don't have that much patience to wait, so I found someone to indirectly remind him of the beautiful widow of the Mu family. Qin Hongmian is naturally seductive and coupled with the Yin Yang Harmony Powder, I'm afraid that this night will take almost half of his life."
Hearing that everything was planned by her behind the scenes, Qin Hongmian couldn't help but tremble with anger. On the side, Song Qingshu hurriedly transmitted his voice to pacify her. Otherwise, she might really throw caution to the wind.
"That Li Yuanhao really has good luck with women." There was some envy in Ding Chunqiu's tone.
"After this period of time, when that woman has completed her mission, she will follow you. But before that, you are not allowed to touch her." Li Qiushui coldly warned.
Ding Chunqiu's heart trembled. Although he had a relationship with this woman, he knew how vicious a person she was. If he provoked her, she would definitely not care about these old feelings. He hurriedly said, "Of course."
"I'm still a little worried about that medicine of yours. Let's go see how effective it is before deciding on the next plan." Finishing, Li Qiushui's figure flashed and flew towards Jie Tan Temple at the foot of the mountain. Ding Chunqiu hurriedly followed behind.
Even though there were Li Yuanhao's personal guards guarding the perimeter of Jie Tan Temple, it was far from the defensive line of the Imperial Palace. In the eyes of experts like them, it was naturally useless.
After waiting for their figures to disappear, Song Qingshu hurriedly said, "Oh no, if we let them sneak into Jie Tan Temple, they will immediately discover Li Yuanhao's situation. If that happens, things will get out of hand."
Qin Hongmian was also a little anxious. After all, there were her clansmen and her daughter in Jie Tan Temple. If the matter was exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"We'll go down immediately!" Qin Hongmian subconsciously wanted to stand up but immediately realized that it was inappropriate. She hurriedly shrunk back into the water, embarrassed and angry. "Quickly move away, I want to put on my clothes!"
