Chapter 514: Search

The patriarch, Qin Guilu, was immersed in his concoction room all day, not a trace of him to be seen.

The stepmadam, Yang Liuxu, hadn’t given birth to the two young masters. Even though she had married into the family five years ago, she was still without child. Instead, she was looking after a niece and nephew from the Yang Family. The people in the estate addressed them as maternal young master and maternal young miss; however, they had not a lick of relations.h.i.+p at all to the two young masters!

Was there a connection between the Shuntian Prefecture’s Liu Yizhi and the Qin Estate?

That day, the old sect master had self-detonated while dragging him up into the sky. She perceived that he had survived from the life lantern’s subsequent fragment. However, judging from his state of injury at the time, he absolutely needed to rest for one or two years in order to make a full recovery.

If the Qin Estate wasn’t related, then why would its iron tablet appear inside the Holy Water Sect’s ancestral temple?

Qiao Mu sneered as she sped up her search.

During the day, she couldn’t do anything suspicious at all with Second Qin sitting on the side. Her chance was now…

“Master, someone is coming!” Qiuqiu’s voice popped into her mind all of a sudden.

Qiao Mu immediately vaulted out the window and scurried away nimbly and noiselessly, concealing herself inside a low thicket outside.

The sapling’s leaves and branches emitted a slight green glow as they extended out from her wrists.

After several seconds, Qiao Mu’s entire figure was suddenly coc.o.o.ned by the rapidly growing shrubbery, cloaking all hints of her presence.

“Young Master, did something happen?”

“I vaguely felt that someone was here just now.” Second Qin lit a candle lamp.

The candle flame shone upon his slightly knitted brows as he made a sweep of the surroundings, but he didn’t discover anything.
