Chapter 100: Help Me Do Some Work
Li Mu Sheng was deep in thought when Li Yuan Ling circled him, inspecting him closely. Her face showed surprise as she asked, “Is that it? Why do I feel like you haven’t changed at all?”
Hearing her words, Li Mu Sheng pulled himself back to the present. He glanced at her briefly and said with a quiet voice, “My dear sworn younger sister, could it be that you’re disappointed I haven’t transformed into something like the Floating Boat City Lord?”
“Huh?” Li Yuan Ling paused, her clear black eyes shifting thoughtfully. “How could you think of me like that?”
As she spoke, she rolled up her green gauzy sleeve, pointing to her smooth, snowy-white arm, and said earnestly, “I was just curious because I didn’t see you sprout a ‘Qilin Arm,’ nor did I see any sudden burst of ‘Qilin Bloodline’ from you.”
Blinking innocently, she continued, “Could it be…that the Qilin Blood was a fake?”
Li Mu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly and waved his hand dismissively. “It was genuine, just terribly little. Before I could even savor it, it vanished!”
Li Yuan Ling rubbed her chin doubtfully. The Floating Boat City Lord had nearly lost his life swallowing the Qilin Blood, yet her sworn elder brother said it barely had any effect. She felt he was subtly bragging about his martial prowess. Though she couldn’t quite name this kind of behavior, it certainly gave her the vague urge to slap someone.
Just then, Li Mu Sheng suddenly showed a spring breeze-like smile. Patting her shoulder generously, he praised warmly, “My dear sworn younger sister, this time you brought me to Floating Boat City and helped me find the Qilin Blood. You’ve truly done me a great favor.”
Hearing this, Li Yuan Ling’s eyes brightened. She asked excitedly, “Since I did help, does this mean you have a reward for me?”
However, Li Mu Sheng slowly shook his head. “No, not exactly. Actually, I just wanted to ask—do you know any other places where Qilin Blood might be? Perhaps you could take me there next?”
Li Yuan Ling: …
…
Seeing his sworn younger sister suddenly fall silent, Li Mu Sheng knew there was no hope from her side. After thinking for a moment, his gaze shifted to Han Mei Yan, who stood motionless not far away. In the next instant, he flashed forward, appearing right before her.
Han Mei Yan, who had been trying to stand as still as wood, couldn’t help but tremble slightly when Li Mu Sheng approached.
“Young lady, what’s your name? Which demonic faction do you belong to?” Li Mu Sheng observed her slowly, his voice gentle and calm.
Han Mei Yan took a deep breath and gracefully bent forward in greeting, fully revealing her alluring figure as she answered softly, “This humble girl is Han Mei Yan, from the Six Desires Demon Sect. This humble girl knows she greatly offended young master earlier, so whatever young master’s decision, this humble girl will accept without complaint.”
Li Mu Sheng frowned slightly, as if recalling something. “Earlier, at the Aurora Pavilion, someone used the Six Desires Demon Sect’s ‘Demonic Heart Seed’ against me. Was it you?”
Han Mei Yan’s heart trembled a little, but she quickly shook her head, insisting, “It wasn’t this humble girl. That was someone else acting independently.”
As she spoke, her gaze drifted toward the distant human-shaped crater in the rock wall.
Li Mu Sheng turned his head slightly and let out a soft “oh,” intrigued. “Interesting. He’s actually still alive?”
Han Mei Yan cautiously glanced at Li Mu Sheng and explained, “Young master might not know this, but that man has a unique physique and cultivates the Undying Blood Saint Art. Ordinary injuries rarely—”
But before she could finish her words, a sudden deep explosion echoed from the crater. Han Mei Yan reflexively looked up. The terrifying Qi around Zhang He rapidly dispersed, and his body disintegrated into a cloud of slowly drifting blood mist.
“Now he should truly be dead,” Li Mu Sheng said calmly, turning his gaze back toward Han Mei Yan, whose face had grown deathly pale. He waved his hand lightly. “In Great Li, we have an old saying: ‘Those who know when to adapt are wise.’ Han young lady appears to be an intelligent woman; you understand my meaning, don’t you?”
Hearing this, Han Mei Yan bit her fiery red lip gently, showing no hesitation as she curtsied gracefully once more. “As long as young master does not harm this humble girl, this humble girl will do whatever young master asks without reservation.”
Li Mu Sheng’s gaze briefly brushed across her ample and graceful figure, then nodded slowly. “In that case… tell me how you learned about the Qilin Blood in Floating Boat City. Do you know where else it might be found?”
Han Mei Yan bit her lip again, cautiously glancing up at Li Mu Sheng. Seeing that his gaze held no hint of wicked desire, she lowered her head slowly, her eyes falling onto her abundant, snow-white chest, unable even to glimpse her own feet. Her brows gently furrowed, and a small wave of insecurity rose within her.
Yet quickly regaining her composure, she gathered her thoughts and shared everything she knew about the Qilin Blood.
In fact, all of Han Mei Yan’s knowledge about the Qilin Blood came from a secretive sect within the Martial World called the “Qilin Holy Sect.” Whenever Qilin Blood appeared in the world, members of this sect would also appear, traveling across the Martial World and spreading news about it.
Strangely, the people of the Qilin Holy Sect never joined in fighting for the blood. They only tracked its whereabouts, providing information freely without seeking any gain. It was even rumored that the Qilin Blood originally flowed from the Qilin Holy Sect itself, intentionally gifted to the Martial World.
After listening, Li Mu Sheng contemplated for a moment, then spoke thoughtfully, “So you’re saying, as long as we find someone from the Qilin Holy Sect, we can discover every place where the Qilin Blood is hidden?”
Han Mei Yan nodded lightly. “Exactly. This humble girl happened upon a disciple of the Qilin Holy Sect on the road to Great Li’s Imperial Capital, who mentioned the Qilin Blood hidden in Floating Boat City.”
She looked deeply into Li Mu Sheng’s eyes and continued, “Young master might not know, but Floating Boat City secretly belongs to Great Li’s Fourth Prince, who has been building his hidden power here for many years. Previously, this humble girl had some entanglements with Floating Boat City and conducted detailed investigations, discovering this secret by chance.”
“The Fourth Prince?” Li Mu Sheng raised an eyebrow slightly.
He knew some details about this Fourth Prince of Great Li. The prince had once allied himself with the fake Seventh Prince imprisoned earlier, challenging both the First and Second Princes’ factions equally. However, after the fake Seventh Prince’s downfall, the Fourth Prince had mysteriously disappeared for some time.
