Chapter 1769 1773: Suspicion

This night in Yueya City, all sorts of people were alarmed.

Due to the disappearance of others, Zhou Yang and the rest were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

Fan Bing was so worried that she cried.

Du Qiuniang hurriedly chased out but didn't find Qin Tian and Gongsun Sanniang; instead, she encountered the guards brought by Gongsun Sanniang, killing more than twenty people in rage.

But ultimately, everything seemed to vanish without a trace.

In the latter half of the night, as Zhou Yang and the others were still anxiously mobilizing troops and issuing orders to "find the living or the dead," Qin Tian quietly returned alone.

At this moment, the eerie redness in Qin Tian's eyes had disappeared, and he returned to Yueya City with a very calm expression.

In the eastern mountain range, when Qin Tian's anger gradually subsided and he calmly looked at the unclothed, alluring Gongsun Sanniang before him, he was surprised by the methods he had used to humiliate her.

Even though Gongsun Sanniang had already submitted and called him her master.

"Turns out, I also have such an evil side."

On his way back, Qin Tian pondered deeply; he was clearly poisoned by Gongsun Sanniang, so how was he unharmed?

Not only was he unharmed, but it seemed as though something fundamental in his Dantian had awakened, and the awakened power was somewhat terrifying even to him.

While walking west with Gongsun Sanniang, he asked her, "You say I'm from the Demon Clan?"

At this point, Gongsun Sanniang was completely overwhelmed by Qin Tian's identity and strength, her tone now carrying respect instead of disdain.

"Master, when you're angry, I can feel the aura of Long Yin from you, and also a strong demon clan aura. It's powerful, so powerful it makes me a bit fearful... So when I saw your aura erupt and the power from your Dantian expel my poison, I knew you were a... Demon King type of figure, someone I'm not a match for."

Gongsun Sanniang remembered the terrifying killing intent Qin Tian carried while chasing her; at that time, it didn't seem significant, but now recalling it sends a chill down her spine.

Terrifying, the very person the Ninth Prince and Crown Prince want to kill, is so terrifying!

"Ha, I didn't know I could be this terrifying."

Qin Tian glanced at Gongsun Sanniang and said, "You must not speak to anyone about my identity. Our relationship, too, must not be mentioned to anyone."

"Yes, I will follow all of Master's arrangements." Gongsun Sanniang, now conquered, appeared very obedient.

"When we return, I will tell my people that we have no relationship whatsoever, we just went out for a secret conversation. You have to cooperate with me."

"Okay."

"As for the Ninth Prince and His Majesty, you'll have to find a way to deal with it yourself. I'll return to the Imperial City after eradicating King Wu in West State; think about how you should speak on my behalf."

"I understand."

...

As they were about to reach Yueya City, Qin Tian and Gongsun Sanniang split and entered Yueya City one after another.

"Wow, boss, are you human or ghost?"

Seeing Qin Tian for the first time, Xiaozhuang was stunned.

Qin Tian was speechless, "What do you think? I'll slap you to see if you're awake."

"No, no, boss, you're okay, huh? You scared us to death. Go report in, your wife is crying at home."

Xiaozhuang quickly led Qin Tian back, while ordering his men to return to the city.

Seeing Qin Tian return, Fan Bing started scolding him until he was dumbfounded.

"You jerk, where did you run off to?"

"You didn't say a word, you scared us to death!"

"What were you doing, taking so long to return... I thought, I thought you..."

Fan Bing couldn't continue.

Not long after, Zhou Yang, Lin Yu, and Zhao Lanjin all rushed back.

Seeing Qin Tian standing alive in the residence, their hanging hearts could finally settle.

Naturally, everyone gathered around Qin Tian to ask what he was doing out of town?

Wasn't he supposed to have gone to Gongsun Sanniang's mansion for dinner? Did he eat outside the city?

What happened to Gongsun Sanniang's servants, how did they all disappear?

A series of questions, Qin Tian had already thought of answers in mind.

"Gongsun Sanniang and I were chatting at her mansion, feeling unsafe, so we both agreed to go outside the city for a secret conversation."

"Gongsun Sanniang's servants probably saw us inexplicably flying out, and each thought Gongsun Sanniang was in trouble, so they all chased out."

"In fact, no, Gongsun Sanniang and I talked a lot a thousand miles away about His Majesty's trust in me, and about any other identity Gongsun Sanniang might have."

"The final result is that Gongsun Sanniang was sent by His Majesty to monitor me and instructed to maintain a good relationship with me... no other identity, at least none I've found so far."

Despite many doubts, this explanation at least put everyone at ease.

Only in Zhou Yang's eyes was there a deep contemplation.

Qin Tian knew that this impromptu explanation couldn't deceive Zhou Yang.

But Zhou Yang, although aware, wouldn't bring it up; that's his tact as a strategist.

"From now on, everything continues as usual. We must focus on resolving the matters of King Wu and the demon clan. We can't delay suppressing the West State rebellion any longer."

Qin Tian announced loudly, full of confidence.

And indeed, in the early hours when Du Qiuniang returned, Qin Tian chatted with her separately, assigning her a secret mission to personally and closely monitor Gongsun Sanniang.

He always felt that Gongsun Sanniang submitted too easily.

But for now, he couldn't kill her, so he had to let Du Qiuniang, capable of becoming invisible, monitor her instead.

As expected, a day later, Du Qiuniang told Qin Tian that Gongsun Sanniang had quietly left the city alone at night, not having gone far.

Upon hearing Du Qiuniang's news, Qin Tian immediately followed out personally.

Heading east along the official road for less than ten miles, he spotted Gongsun Sanniang.

He concealed all his aura, quietly following Gongsun Sanniang, who seemed preoccupied and didn't notice Qin Tian.

After leaving the official road, Gongsun Sanniang entered a mountain forest, and in the chaotic stone forest on the mountain, Qin Tian saw from afar her secretly conversing with two black-clothed men.

Worried about alerting the enemy, Qin Tian didn't dare get too close.

But seeing Gongsun Sanniang talk with the two black-clothed men for more than ten minutes, Qin Tian pondered deeply, feeling he couldn't let them leave after conferring with her; otherwise, whether his identity or past events with her, if Gongsun Sanniang relayed them to the Imperial City, he'd be in great danger!

After some hesitation, Qin Tian gathered his True Qi, preparing to take action.
