Ghost Guest faced Li Qing's murderous palm strike without flinching.

"Bang!"

The sound of flesh colliding with metal echoed as an armored puppet stepped in front of Ghost Guest, forcing Li Qing back while remaining unmoved.

Lan Qian turned her head to look at Tang Feng, who had appeared at the door without her noticing, and was shocked, "You just recently broke through to the ninth level of Qi Refinement. How do you have a puppet at the ninth level of Qi Refinement?"

Tang Feng smiled faintly and walked over to the puppet, removing its faceplate to reveal its true face.

Lan Qian looked closely and her eyes trembled violently.

The puppet's face was none other than that of Wang Li, the former Deputy Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall.

The art of puppet creation only required a cultivator's corpse and Corpse Qi. For the Law Enforcement Hall, with its bloodstained hands, these materials were not hard to come by. Almost every disciple there knew how to refine puppets.

Wang Li's failure to seize the position of Hall Master and being turned into a puppet was not surprising.

But she never expected that Lin Han would actually give this puppet to Tang Feng.

In the past, the Law Enforcement Hall had two Deputy Hall Masters. After Lin Han took over, to prevent internal strife over the Hall Master position, he abolished the old rules and decreed that only one Deputy Hall Master could be appointed in the future.

This meant that after Lin Han, the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall would inevitably be Tang Feng.

Recalling how Lin Han and Tang Feng always came to protect Ghost Guest in time, and considering how Ghost Guest could mobilize so many Spirit Stones from the Law Enforcement Hall, she was very clear that after Tang Feng, the Hall Master would certainly be Ghost Guest.

The Law Enforcement Hall was already in Ghost Guest's hands. Once she and Li Qing were sidelined, given the past grievances with Amanda Han, Ghost Guest would never let her and Li Qing go.

Thinking of this, a hint of killing intent flashed in Lan Qian's eyes, but seeing Tang Feng standing in front of Ghost Guest, she held back.

A puppet at the ninth level of Qi Refinement, plus Tang Feng, who was also at the ninth level, meant that even if she and Li Qing attacked together, they might not gain any advantage.

Lan Qian grabbed Li Qing's hand, which was bulging with veins, signaling him to calm down, then snorted coldly, "Last time it was Hall Master Lin, this time it's Deputy Hall Master Tang. Do you really think there's no one in the Medicine Gate?"

Tang Feng said expressionlessly, "The duty of the Law Enforcement Hall is to stop killings. I came to the Medicine Gate to buy pills and happened to see you trying to kill Junior Brother Ghost Guest. As the Deputy Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, how could I stand by and do nothing?"

Lan Qian was rendered speechless and could only let out a cold laugh.

Ghost Guest flicked his sleeve and extended his hand, which Amanda Han immediately took, linking her arm with his.

"If there's nothing else, we shall take our leave, Deputy Gate Masters."

"Don't see us out!" Li Qing glared at Ghost Guest, coldly spitting out the words.

Ghost Guest's lips curled into a smile as he let Amanda Han lead him away.

Once outside the building, when Ghost Guest tried to withdraw his hand, Amanda Han tightened her grip on his arm.

"Don't be like that, let me hold on a bit longer."

Ghost Guest smiled helplessly, "I said everything as you taught me, has that satisfied you, Senior Sister?"

Amanda Han giggled, "This is just the beginning. Don't you know women hold grudges?"

Ghost Guest smiled without replying. At the entrance of the Fragrance Beauty Tower, he signaled Amanda Han to go upstairs first and then walked towards the Medicine Gate with Tang Feng, deliberately falling a step behind him.

"Thank you for your help, Senior Brother."

"This was for both you and the Law Enforcement Hall. No need to thank me."

"By the way, there's something I'd like to ask you."

"Go ahead."

"What's the background of that Lan Qian?"

Tang Feng remained silent until they reached the outside of the Medicine Gate before speaking, "Her surname is Wei."

"Wei Lan Qian, the sister of Wei Changkong?" Ghost Guest probed.

"Yes." Tang Feng nodded, "I'm sorry, Wei Changkong has already reached Foundation Establishment, and I have to consider the future. I can only tell you this much. I'll leave you here."

"Take care, Senior Brother." Ghost Guest watched Tang Feng leave, and only when he could no longer see his figure did he slowly turn around, frowning in deep thought.

So she's Wei Changkong's sister. No wonder Xiao Shenghe is so wary of Wei Lan Qian.

Although Wei Changkong has already left with a sealed order, he was the former Gate Master of the Medicine Gate, and those who were loyal to him would naturally be loyal to Wei Lan Qian now, and there are quite a few of them.

Even without these people, with a brother who has already reached Foundation Establishment, Wei Lan Qian can roam the Medicine Gate unimpeded.

Amanda Han must know about these things, but every time he asked, she would always evade the topic.

Amanda Han definitely didn't take the Yang-Extracting Pill willingly. There are only three people who could have forced her to take it.

Wei Changkong, Wei Lan Qian, and Li Qing.

Li Qing is the first to be ruled out. If it were really Li Qing who forced Amanda Han to take the Yang-Extracting Pill, Amanda Han wouldn't have cried her heart out for him back then.

Next to be ruled out is Wei Lan Qian. Li Qing was originally with Amanda Han, but for some reason, he broke Wei Lan Qian's chastity, leading to a breakup with Amanda Han. Amanda Han and Wei Lan Qian are rivals in love, so she wouldn't take a pill from Wei Lan Qian.

So the one who gave Amanda Han the Yang-Extracting Pill must be Wei Changkong. For his sister, Wei Changkong gave Amanda Han the pill to ruin her reputation, so Li Qing would give up on Amanda Han.

As the Gate Master of the Medicine Gate, Amanda Han couldn't refuse, whether she wanted to or not.

This explanation makes sense.

But there are still many doubts about this matter.

First, why did Li Qing break Wei Lan Qian's chastity?

When Li Qing talked to Amanda Han back then, his words were full of grievance. From Li Qing's perspective, Amanda Han must have wronged him first, which led him to wrong Amanda Han.

So the sequence of events should be that Amanda Han took the Yang-Extracting Pill first, and then Li Qing broke Wei Lan Qian's chastity.

But here's the problem: if Wei Changkong wanted to matchmake Li Qing and Wei Lan Qian, he must have done so because Wei Lan Qian was interested in Li Qing. Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense.

However, Wei Lan Qian's attitude towards Li Qing is very strange, which is the second doubt.

Everyone in the Medicine Gate knows that Li Qing is now interested in Wei Lan Qian, but Wei Lan Qian doesn't care about Li Qing at all.

When a woman's chastity is destroyed, she either resents the person or, due to societal norms, stays with them. Wei Lan Qian's attitude towards Li Qing falls between these two extremes. She doesn't like him, but she doesn't resent him either, which is very odd.

Moreover, if Wei Lan Qian doesn't care about Li Qing, why is she so hostile towards Amanda Han?

From Amanda Han's perspective, she feels abandoned after being wronged. So it was Li Qing who wronged Amanda Han first.

The reason Li Qing broke Wei Lan Qian's chastity is simple: to gain Wei Changkong's support for his rise. And indeed, Li Qing rose step by step, becoming a Deputy Gate Master alongside Wei Lan Qian.

He certainly trusts Amanda Han, but he still finds it strange. If Li Qing wronged Amanda Han, how could he dare to touch Wei Lan Qian without fearing Wei Changkong's wrath?

And no matter whose perspective you take, Wei Lan Qian's attitude is inexplicable. There must be a deeper secret behind all this.

Lost in thought, he unknowingly arrived outside the Dangui Pavilion.

Robert Zhou, waiting outside the pavilion, immediately approached and whispered in Ghost Guest's ear, "Sir, the fish has taken the bait."
