Li Qingshan turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Little Ann turned to look at the door that was still open and said, "If you marry her, can we still be together like this?"
Li Qingshan was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, "It's fine if you don't like it." Although he was very reluctant to part with her, it would be easier to end things while there were no feelings between them. If there were feelings in the future, it would be troublesome. This was also for her own good!
"Go and marry her!" Little Ann let go of his sleeve and suppressed the strange emotions in his heart. This was what he had always wanted. This was probably the best choice for him. He could even become the disciple of that Great General Han. Sigh, how could she be an obstacle to him?
"Are you serious?"
"Really!"
"It'll be too late for regrets in the future." Not to mention what would happen if he abandoned her after taking advantage of her, it wasn't in his character to go back and forth.
"I don't regret it."
Watching Li Qingshan disappear in front of the door, Han Qiongzhi finally couldn't bear it anymore. She leaned on the table and cried. Li Qingshan, you bastard! Han Qiongzhi, you are so useless! He's just a man!
Suddenly, she felt a warmth on her head. She looked up and met Li Qingshan's eyes.
Even though Li Qingshan had a heart of stone, he couldn't help but feel touched. This arrogant and domineering woman also had such a weak side, but it was for him. If he missed this chance, wouldn't it be a regret for the rest of his life? He reached out, wanting to wipe away her tears.
"Why did you come back?" Han Qiongzhi pushed Li Qingshan's hand away and wiped away the tears on her face.
"Sorry …"
As soon as Li Qingshan finished speaking, Han Qiongzhi grabbed his wrist. "You!" It was as if she was afraid that he would disappear again. She let go of his hand and felt that she was pitifully weak when the two of them were together.
But it was also very pitiful. Li Qingshan held her hand. "Don't worry, I won't leave."
"Who cares!" Han Qiongzhi tried to shake him off, but failed. "You should leave. Don't bother me here. "
"Can you wait for me to come back?"
"Wait for you for what?"
"It's a beautiful spring day. It's a good day to go sightseeing," Li Qingshan said with a smile. Tossing aside the last layer of worry in his heart, he was in an extremely good mood and immediately took the initiative. Since she wanted to be his partner, then let's get along well!
Han Qiongzhi's mood was completely disturbed by him. Her mood fluctuated, and she couldn't speak for a moment.
"Alright, I'll take that as a yes." Li Qingshan decided on his own. Looking at her rosy lips, he wanted to kiss her goodbye, but he was afraid that he would scare her. Instead, he touched her cheek and turned to leave.
"You, come back soon." Han Qiongzhi couldn't help but stand up.
Li Qingshan looked back and saw that there were still traces of tears on her face, and her shoulder-length hair was a little messy. The joy on her pretty face couldn't be concealed. Although she was shy, she still looked straight at him with undisguised sincerity.
For a moment, she was extremely adorable. Li Qingshan almost changed his words and said, "Let's go sightseeing now!"
"Alright, Qiongzhi." Li Qingshan smiled slightly and closed the door.
Han Qiongzhi sat there and was stunned for a moment. She bit her lips, but she couldn't suppress the smile on her face. She couldn't help but stand up, spin around, and stretch while facing the window. It was indeed a beautiful spring day, and she couldn't help but look forward to it.
Knock, knock, knock. There were a few knocks on the door. Han Qiongzhi hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face, and resumed her cold appearance.
A green-clothed attendant trembled as he walked in. "Lord Han, I want to ask for leave. My mother, she …"
"Alright, approved."
After a quarter of an hour, the entire building was filled with rumors that Lord Han's irritable period had finally passed. That Lord Li really had a miraculous effect. Indeed, everything had its vanquisher. The attendant who managed the mission book was even awarded as a meritorious service.
… …
In the sky, above the clouds, Little Ann looked at the smiling Li Qingshan and pouted. Hmph, do you really have to be so happy?
As if he could hear her thoughts, Li Qingshan pinched her cheek. "You'll understand when you grow up."
Little Ann asked rather curiously and eagerly, "When I grow up, will you marry me too?"
Li Qingshan said, "Forget it. I don't want to be hunted down by the monks of the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga. That's a place as renowned as the Sword Collection palace." Just the thought of the fate of marrying their genius female disciple terrified him.
"I won't!"
"Even if you won't, there's nothing you can do about it. Just obediently be a nun, a job with a very promising future!" Li Qingshan sniggered.
Under Little Ann's attack of "I'll cry if you don't agree", Li Qingshan could only raise his hands in surrender. "Alright, alright, I'll marry you!"
Little Ann immediately cheered up, but she became troubled again. "But if they really come looking for trouble, what are we supposed to do?"
Li Qingshan saw how she was seriously considering it, so he showed off his sturdy arm and smiled. "Then I'll blow up all their bald heads!"
"Then I'll help you." Little Ann found this to be a good idea. Before she had even formally joined the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga, she had already begun thinking about how to betray the monastery and betray her master and ancestors.
A tiny city appeared in the fertile land beneath her feet. Li Qingshan took out a map and compared it. They had already arrived at their first stop.
It was noon, and the weather was still rather chilly. There were only a few people scattered on the streets, only a group of children. They ran around and laughed tirelessly, but because they disturbed someone else's afternoon nap, they were scolded and chased to one side.
"Where are the dogs of the Green Wolf gang!?"
Suddenly, a bellow rang out, rousing everyone from their dreams. They all emerged from their homes to see just who it was that had come looking for trouble with the Green Wolf gang.
The leader of the Green Wolf gang was currently treating a few of his friends from the Forest Gang to a meal. He was already rather drunk, but when he suddenly heard that, he shuddered and flew into a rage. "Someone's come to make trouble for us. Brothers, get ready. Let's deal with him."
Around forty good men from the Green Wolf gang filed out, standing in a formation at the entrance. The leader of the Green Wolf gang sat on an armchair at the very centre.
Many people stuck their heads out to look around on the two sides of the street. The children even widened their eyes. All they saw was a figure that was not tall striding through the dust on the perfectly straight street, making his way over slowly.
The leader of the Green Wolf gang squinted his eyes and made out the figure. It was a child around eleven or twelve. He wore a wide-brimmed straw hat and a tattered, cotton-padded jacket that was covered in patches. He held a brush in his hand.
"So it's a child!"
"Has he gone mad from eating his heart?"
But the children's eyes instantly froze. Some of them hurriedly took out a picture book from their pockets, lowered their heads to look at the painting, then raised their heads to look at the person. They repeated this a few times, their mouths slowly falling open.
The furrowed brows of the leader of the Green Wolf gang relaxed. He had thought that it was some impressive figure, but it turned out to be a crazy child. But Just Now, that loud bellow still caught his attention.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you cause trouble in my Green Wolf gang!"
The child said in a crisp voice, "Green Wolf gang, you scourge the common people and deserve to die a horrible death. Today, I will uphold justice and rid the people of evil!"
The Green Wolf gang members roared with laughter. The leader of the Forest Gang said, "Leader, why are you wasting your breath on him? I've been so bored lately, dig out his heart and bring it to the bar for me!" As he spoke, he even licked his scarlet lips. Because he liked to eat human hearts, especially children's hearts, he was known as the "Heart Eater Ghost". He was also an infamous first-rate expert.
The leader of the Green Wolf gang waved his hand. "Take him down!" Two gang members stepped forward.
The child took out a scroll painting from behind his back. With a shake of his hand, he revealed that it was the "Tiger Descending the Mountains" painting!
With a howl, a huge tiger pounced forward, its front paws pressing down on two gang members. With a hook of its blade-like claws, it ripped open their stomachs and pounced towards the leader of the Green Wolf gang.
This huge tiger was ten times more ferocious than a normal tiger. It pounced into the Green Wolf gang members like a tiger pouncing into a flock of sheep, slaughtering them.
Fear froze on the faces of everyone who saw this scene. Only the children's eyes lit up with joy.
"It's him, it's him, it's him!"
…
The moment the "Heart Eater Ghost" saw the huge tiger pounce out of the painting, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat. This was clearly not the method of a mortal, but a legendary cultivator. No matter how strong the people of the Forest Gang were, they could not possibly be a match for a cultivator.
Using his lightness skill, he scaled the walls and leaped over the houses to escape. But just as he leaped over two eaves, he felt his heart go empty, as if something was missing. Looking down, he didn't know when, but there was a bloody hole in his chest, but his heart had already disappeared.
Turning his head, he saw that his heart was in the hands of a man, blood dripping down. He had eaten many hearts in his life, but this was the first time he had seen his own heart. An indescribable pain and despair welled up in his heart.
"I haven't done this kind of work in a long time. Looks like I'm not out of practice." Li Qingshan casually tossed the heart to Little Ann. Little Ann released the Blood Flame of Corpse Incineration, incinerating the man's skin and bones.
At this time, the battle between the huge tiger and the Green Wolf gang had also ended. The huge tiger in the painting was not very strong, only at the third or fourth layer of Qi Refinement. But against a group of people of the Forest Gang, it was too easy.
This painting was naturally one of the paintings given to him by Chu Danqing. Although the people it created were enough to use similar methods, in order to save the power of wishes and prepare for the battle in the future, it was still better to use the power of wishes to activate the paintings.
Li Qingshan took out another painting from his hundred treasures pouch and tossed it into the air. When it unfolded, it was completely blank.
The blank painting spun and sucked all the corpses into it, returning to Li Qingshan's hands. Dozens of corpses appeared in the originally blank painting.
This painting was equivalent to an artist's hundred treasures pouch. Not only could it store inanimate objects, but it could also seal living things. It was very interesting. Moreover, he saved them up and gave them to Little Ann as backup food. It was really a one-stop service that took care of killing and burying.
The child in the straw hat rode the huge tiger and leaped away. Everyone walked out of their houses and saw that the Green Wolf gang, which had been running amok for a while, had already disappeared without a trace. If it were not for the traces of blood on the ground, it would seem like a dream.
The children's faces were all red with excitement as they ran around the streets, cheering.
At first, the adults did not know why they were so happy until someone suddenly remembered, "Hey, isn't that child the person in the painting book that Second Little Girl made me read to her?"
"Could it be that the painting in that painting book is real?"
