Qingqing still had a lot of questions to ask Di Tian, but at this moment, watching him concentrate on splashing ink, she knew that she was asking in vain.

Di Tian always paints like this, as if the whole world has nothing to do with him, only he and his paintings exist in this universe.

Qingqing sighed lightly and decided to give herself some time to digest what Di Tian had said before.

Those words were like a boulder, weighing on her heart, making her a little breathless.

The City Lord's Mansion is a huge complex of buildings, with countless courtyards, cloisters, and pavilions intertwined, like a labyrinth.

And Qingqing was arranged to live in a very remote small courtyard.

The yard is small, but it is exquisitely furnished, and it is clear that it has been carefully designed.

There is an osmanthus tree in the courtyard, I don't know what fairy means are used, so that the osmanthus is still in full bloom in this season, full of flowers, and the fragrance is overflowing.

There was a stone table and several stone benches under the tree, and Qingqing sat on the stone bench, holding her cheeks with her hands, looking at the osmanthus tree in a daze.

Her thoughts were as jumbled as the branches and leaves of the osmanthus tree.

Di Tian's words echoed in her mind, making her feel inexplicably irritable.

She didn't know whether she should trust Di Tian or not, let alone what kind of person Di Tian was.

Sometimes he is gentle as water, sometimes cold as ice, sometimes mysterious, and sometimes honest.

Such a person made Qingqing feel both curious and scared.

She knew that Di Tian was dangerous.

The aura emanating from him, as well as the signs he displayed, made Qingqing feel a strong uneasiness.

But she couldn't resist Di Tian's mystery, and she couldn't help but want to get close to him and get to know him.

What made Qingqing even more uneasy was the relationship between Di Tian and the Dragon Fan Society and the Bow Snake.

Although Di Tian didn't say it explicitly, Qingqing could feel that there must be some kind of ulterior deal between them.

Thinking of this, Qingqing couldn't help but shudder.

She didn't know where the vortex would take her, and she didn't know if she would be able to break free from it.

But she knew one thing, that is, she must not sit still, and she must find a way to contact Zhao Rang and tell him Di Tian's words so that he can be prepared.

Only in this way can she win favorable opportunities for herself, for Zhao Rang, for the Investigation Division, and even for the entire Northland.

Although she thought so, Qingqing still had a headache.

She somehow got into this predicament.

I don't know what Di Tian's specific purpose is, but I can only listen.

Qingqing took a deep breath and put her thoughts aside.

In this huge chess game, she took the lead and couldn't get out.

Thinking of this, Qingqing stood up and prepared to leave this small courtyard and have a good talk with Di Tiankai.

However, at this moment, she suddenly heard a rush of footsteps.

The footsteps grew clearer and clearer from far and near, and were running in the direction she was.

Qingqing's heartbeat accelerated instantly, but her eyes became more and more calm.

At this time, it is useless to panic, only to stay calm can deal with the next changes.

In the darkness, three figures approached as quickly as ghosts.

The aura on their bodies was cold and dangerous, and it was obvious that they were not good people.

With a soft sound of "whoosh", the soft sword on Qingqing's waist seemed to sense the master's fighting intent, and it actually took the initiative to unsheath!

The sword light streaked through the air in an elegant arc, as agile as flowing water.

At the same time, Qingqing's palms also turned over, and the palms condensed a strong internal force, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder.

The three black shadows attacked in a zigzag shape, and they cooperated tacitly and attacked fiercely.

Two of them attacked Qingqing's left and right sides to try to distract her, while the third took the opportunity to take her by the throat.

Qingqing's eyes lit up, and her body fluttered like the wind.

The soft sword in her hand seemed to have become a part of her body, agile and agile.

The tip of the sword streaked through the air.

Each flicker of sword light was precisely aimed at the opponent's vital point.

Her palm technique was also pushed to the extreme by her.

With a flick of his left palm, he brought up a strong wind and forced the enemy on his left side to the chest.

The right palm suddenly slapped out, and the thunderous momentum made half of the City Lord's Mansion tremble.

In the face of Qingqing's fierce offensive, the three black shadow people also had to deal with it with all their might.

Their bodies are erratic, their hands are clawed, palms, or sword fingers, constantly changing their moves and directions.

The branches and leaves of the osmanthus tree swayed in their fight, and the stone tables and benches were constantly displaced and tumbled by their strong wind.

The entire courtyard was full of strong winds and sword energy.

Although these three dark shadow figures are extraordinary, Qingqing is even better.

Her soft sword and palm work together to form an impenetrable net.

Every flicker of sword light, every whistling of the palm wind makes the enemy feel terrified!

Gradually, the three dark shadow figures showed their defeats...... Their offensive is getting weaker and harder, and Qingqing is getting braver and braver.

She felt as if she had entered a wonderful realm, every time she took out her sword, every time she made a palm, she did whatever she wanted.

Suddenly, Qingqing let out a clear drink, and the soft sword in his hand pierced the heart of one of the black shadow people like a spirit snake spitting out a letter.

The shadow man was shocked, and he tried his best to dodge, but it was too late.

Hearing a soft "poof" sound, the soft sword had already pierced into his chest, and the blood instantly stained his clothes.

He fell to the ground, his eyes full of reluctance and horror.

The other two shadow figures were shocked when they saw this, and wanted to retreat. But how could Qingqing let them go?

The movement of their bodies was already in the way of their retreat.

The two black shadow figures glanced at each other, knowing that it was difficult to be good today, so they tried their best to attack Qingqing.

At this time, Qingqing was already unstoppable.

Her body fluttered like the wind, and the soft sword in her hand was like a silver dragon, flying and leaping in the night sky.

Each flicker of sword light took away the life of an enemy.

In a few moments, two black shadow figures also fell under her sword one after another.

The petals of the osmanthus tree were scattered all over the place, but Qingqing had no time to take care of them.

She walked over to the fallen Shadow Men to check their identities.

Just as they bent down to remove the black cloth from their faces, they suddenly felt a wave of weakness hit them, and their bodies fell uncontrollably......

At the moment of losing consciousness, Qingqing used her last strength to support her body.

Her vision began to blur, but she struggled to see what was in front of her.

The three shadow figures had all fallen to the ground, but her own situation was not optimistic.

However, at this moment, she could not move, so she could only lie on the ground and let the cold wind blow her body......

Time seems to have become extraordinarily long in this moment.

Qingqing's thoughts began to drift away, she remembered Di Tian's mysterious smile, remembered what he said before, and remembered the helplessness and struggle that she had fallen into this huge whirlpool since Ivy Garden......

She didn't know if she would make it through, but she knew she couldn't just fall down like that.

At that moment, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded again.

Qingqing's heart tightened.

She knew she was no longer capable of dealing with new enemies.

However, she breathed a sigh of relief when the figure appeared in her sight......

The person who came was not an enemy, but the city lord Di Tian.

Di Tian was originally painting in the study, but suddenly sensed the movement in Qingqing's courtyard, so he immediately threw down his paintbrush and hurried over.

When he saw Qingqing lying on the ground, and the three black shadow figures lying around, his face instantly became extremely gloomy.

He didn't expect such a thing to happen in his City Lord's Mansion, let alone the attack that Qingqing would be attacked.

Di Tian quickly walked over to Qingqing's side, helped her body, and put his hand on Qingqing's pulse to probe her injuries.

Qingqing's pulse was weak and disordered, and it was obvious that he had suffered a lot of injuries.

Di Tian quickly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a pill, fed it into Qingqing's mouth, and then put his palm on Qingqing's back, using his strength to help her dissolve the medicine and repair her injuries.

After a stick of incense, Qingqing's face gradually returned to ruddy, and her breathing became steady.

Di Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

He instructed the maid to send Qingqing into the room to recuperate, while he stayed behind to deal with the aftermath of the scene.

When Di Tian saw the faces of the three black shadow men clearly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

These three people are no strangers to him, all of them are members of the Dragon Sail Club, and one of them even appeared at the reception he held the day before yesterday.

Di Tian knew the strength and methods of the Dragon Fan Society very well, but now these three people died in his own City Lord's Mansion, and they were killed by Qingqing, which made Di Tian feel as if he had fallen into some kind of whirlpool......

But now is not the time to dwell on that.

Di Tian's palm flipped over, and with a light palm, he slapped it out, hitting the Tianling Gai of the three black shadow people respectively.

Only listening to the three soft sounds of "poof, puff, puff", the three black shadow figures were already dead no more thoroughly.

In order to prevent them from leaving any aftermath or clues after death, they were simply erased completely.

After dealing with it, Di Tian returned to the house, looking at Qingqing's still unconscious appearance, and felt very guilty in his heart.

Just waited quietly by Qingqing's side, I don't know how long it took, Qingqing's eyelashes trembled slightly, and slowly opened his eyes.

When she saw Di Tian sitting beside her, she felt an inexplicable vigilance in her heart, but she still wanted to get up and thank Di Tian.

However, as soon as he moved, he felt a sharp pain coming, and he couldn't help but moan.

Seeing this, Di Tian hurriedly pressed her shoulder and said:

"Don't move yet, you need to get some rest."

Qingqing had no choice but to lie back when she heard this, but her eyes deliberately avoided Di Tian's face and said thank you.

She didn't know how she should face Di Tian.

In front of this man, she always felt an inexplicable pressure and uneasiness.

Di Tian smiled slightly:

"No thanks, you are my guest in my mansion. I am responsible for the safety of my guests, so it is up to me to apologize to you. ”

He paused and continued:

"I've already sent someone to ask for a doctor, and someone will come to treat you soon."

Qingqing nodded and didn't say anything, she could feel that Di Tian's care for her at the moment was sincere, but this sincerity made Di Tian more dangerous and elusive in her heart.

Di Tian saw that Qingqing was silent, and he didn't say anything more.

He knew that Qingqing must have a lot of questions and thoughts in his heart at the moment, but he was not in a hurry to explain or justify anything.

Some things take time to digest and understand.

He stood up, walked to the window, and looked out at the osmanthus tree.

The aroma of osmanthus mixed with the coolness of the night calmed his mood a little.

He turned his head, looked at Qingqing, and said slowly:

"I know you have a lot of doubts and distrust of me right now, but I want you to give me a chance to prove my sincerity."

Hearing this, Qingqing raised her head to look at Di Tian, and a trace of complicated emotions flashed in her eyes.

She didn't know how to answer Di Tian's words, because she was indeed full of doubts and distrust of Di Tian.

But she also knew that her current situation needed Di Tian's help and protection.

There was a knock at the door.

Di Tian frowned, walked to the door, opened the door, and saw a maid hurrying with a doctor.

Di Tian got out of the way and asked the doctor to come in to treat Qingqing.

The doctor carefully examined Qingqing's injuries and pulse, and then prescribed a prescription and instructed the maid to take the medicine and decoction according to it.

Di Tian looked at the busy figure of the doctor, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, in this world, everyone has their own roles and missions, whether it is himself or Qingqing, they can't escape their own fate and responsibility.

He turned his head and looked at Qingqing, realizing that she was watching him.

The eyes of the two met in the air, as if an invisible force tugged at their heartstrings.

Qingqing nodded at him, indicating that he believed Di Tian.

Di Tian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Qingqing's response.

The night was like ink, but the city lord's mansion was brightly lit.

The people of the Dragon Sail Club came faster than expected!

The group broke directly into the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and the people led by them were even more domineering.

"City Lord Di, our people from the Dragon Fan Society have lost their lives in your mansion, you have to give us an explanation, right?"

A middle-aged man at the head said coldly, his eyes revealing a bit of gloom and ruthlessness.

When Di Tian heard this, he walked out of the mansion unhurriedly and looked at the group of uninvited guests in front of him.

He still had that breezy smile on his face, but there was a subtle chill in his eyes.

"The people of the Dragon Sail Society lost their lives in my house? Where does this begin? ”

Di Tian asked lightly, as if he didn't know about it.

"Lord Di, Ming people don't say secret words. It is an ironclad fact that our men have been slain in your house. And we have already found out that the murderer is from the first floor of the Investigation Division! ”

The middle-aged man said in an aggressive tone.

They had already learned Qingqing's identity, and they knew that she was hiding in the City Lord's Mansion at the moment.

This time, they seemed to come to seek justice for their dead companions, but in fact, they wanted to take the opportunity to test Di Tian's attitude.

After all, the relationship between the Dragon Fan Society and the City Lord's Mansion has been a bit delicate recently.

When Di Tian heard this, a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes.

He didn't expect that the people of the Long Fan Club would find out Qingqing's identity so quickly, and they dared to come directly to the door to ask for someone.

He sneered, looked at the middle-aged man and said:

"You said that the person from the Investigation Division is the murderer and is still in my house, is there any evidence?"

"Evidence? Our people saw her kill our companions with their own eyes, what proof is needed for this? ”

The middle-aged man said angrily.

"Where are the people who dare to ask you now? Can you come out and confront you face to face? ”

Di Tian asked unhurriedly.

When the middle-aged man heard this, his face changed slightly.

No one saw Qingqing kill at all, they just said it casually, and they didn't want to tear their faces with the City Lord's Mansion so quickly.

The middle-aged man finally held back the anger in his heart and said:

"City Lord Di, our people are dead and can't come out to confront them. But we can be sure that the girl from the first floor of the Investigation Division is the murderer! We hope you'll hand her over so we can take her back and ask for clarification. ”

When Di Tian heard this, he laughed, looked at the middle-aged man and said:

"When your people died, they came to me and asked for someone? What is the rationale for this? Besides, Miss Qingqing is a guest of my City Lord's Mansion, why should I hand her over to you? Who do you think you are? Feel free to go wild in my City Lord's Mansion?! ”

As soon as Di Tian's words fell, the soldiers behind him also drew their blades one after another, with a tense posture.

They had long been unhappy with the people of the Longfan Club, and when they saw Di Tian speaking at this moment, they naturally stood up unceremoniously.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man's face sank, and he said:

"City Lord Di, since you are so ignorant of lifting, then don't blame us for being rude!"

After speaking, with a wave of his hand, the people behind him rushed up, wanting to forcibly break into the mansion and arrest people.

I saw Di Tian's figure move.

Immediately afterward, a scream rang out.

The members of the Dragon Sail Club who rushed to the front just now fell to the ground one after another.

The clothes on their chests were all destroyed, and all of them left a neat palm print, obviously injured by Di Tian's palm force.

The middle-aged man was shocked when he saw this.

He knew that Di Tian's martial arts cultivation was very strong, but he didn't expect it to reach such a point that he, a martial cultivator who had already ascended to the Fourth Rank Realm, couldn't even see clearly how he made a move!

The middle-aged man swallowed his saliva, looked at Di Tian and said:

"City Lord Di, you...... Do you really want to be the enemy of our Longfan Society for the sake of someone from the first floor of the Investigation Division? ”

Di Tian looked at him coldly and said:

"I just said that! The young girl is my guest, and it is my responsibility to keep her safe! If you Longfan Club continues to make trouble, then don't blame me for killing me! ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he knew that it was impossible to take Qingqing away tonight, and there was no point in continuing to make trouble......

So he could only glare at Di Tian fiercely and said:

"City Lord Di, you are so self-conscious! You know what we do! This will not stop there! ”

After saying that, he turned around and left the gate of the City Lord's Mansion with his men.

The people of the Dragon Fan Club will not give up, this is what Di Tian expected.

He could only shake his head helplessly, put these chaotic thoughts behind him, and silently returned to his study.
