When that person saw Kong Rui leaning towards him, his eyes flashed with hope.

In the next moment, Kong Rui stabbed the person’s neck with a bright dagger.

The moment the dagger was pulled out, blood spurted out and shot two to three meters high-

The person looked at Kong Rui in shock. “You, why…”

Blood splattered from the person’s mouth as he glared at Kong Rui.

“I only said that I would reduce your pain,” Kong Rui said as she wiped the few drops of blood on the dagger with the man’s clothes and slowly stood up without caring about the blood on her body. “I didn’t say I wouldn’t let you die!”

The person’s eyes gradually darkened as he fell to the ground. Only the sound of blood gurgling from his mouth could be heard.

…..

Mr. Hua watched Kong Rui’s actions in a daze.

Hua Shang walked to Kong Rui’s side quickly and asked with concern, “Are you alright? Are you injured anywhere?”

Kong Rui shook her head and said, “1 still have something on, so I’ll be leaving first!”

Hua Shang grabbed Kong Rui’s elbow. “Wait!”

Kong Rui turned around in confusion.

“Do you want to change your clothes first?” Hua Shang looked at Kong Rui’s clothes as he reminded her kindly.

Only then did Kong Rui look down at her clothes.

Because Kong Rui was too close to that person, a lot of the blood that had just spewed out landed on her.

She shrugged helplessly and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble you, Young Master Hua!”

Only then did Hua Shang smile. “Madam, you’re too polite. Please follow me!”

Hua Shang led Kong Rui out. The two of them ignored Mr. Hua, who was still standing there in a daze.

After Kong Rui changed her clothes, she immediately left the Hua family’s residence.

The thief’s words gave Kong Rui a bad feeling.

If it was really as he said, and the queen was prepared to use Li Han’s body to replace Wen Qiong’s soul, Nie Yin definitely knew about this!

The Nie family must have some ulterior motive for submitting to the queen.

The queen had already fallen out with the Hua family in order to achieve her goal, so the other great clans would probably suffer the same blow!

Thinking of the coffins in the Li family’s ancestral hall, Kong Rui felt that the queen’s scheme was probably more than that!

When Kong Rui returned to Fragrant Garden, she saw Ling Nuo waiting at the door. “Why are you looking for me?”

“Miss, Young Master asked you to be careful of the Li family. It’s said that the Li family has sent people to look for people from Ghost Valley these few days.” Ling Nuo immediately took two steps forward and reported to Kong Rui.

“Ghost Valley?” Kong Rui looked at Ling Nuo in confusion. “Why did the Li family send people to Ghost Valley?”

“It’s said that they want to find a medicine that can revive the dead!” Ling Nuo replied.

“Is there really such a medicine?” Kong Rui turned to look at Ling Nuo and stared at him intently, as if weighing the truth of his words.

Ling Nuo swallowed hard and said, “Of course not!”

Kong Rui didn’t say anything and just stared at Ling Nuo quietly.

Ling Nuo held his breath for a long time before saying, “Although Ghost Valley doesn’t have such a medicine, with Ghost Valley’s spell technique, it can achieve the same effect!”

Only then did Kong Rui relax and stop staring at Ling Nuo.

Ling Nuo secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

But soon, Kong Rui asked again, “Do you know who the Li family wants to revive?”

This time, Ling Nuo was really stumped.

Ling Nuo shook her head, her face filled with confusion. “I haven’t heard of anything happening to anyone in the Li family recently!”

“Could it be that the Li family’s First Elder is dying?” Ling Nuo guessed.

Kong Rui shook her head in disagreement.

“Go investigate who else in the Li family has been in trouble recently,” Kong Rui instructed. Then, she added, “Or check if anyone related to the Li family has been in trouble!”

“Yes!” After Ling Nuo received the order, he immediately turned to leave..
