43: Chapter 43 Identity Exposed

"Xie... Uncle Xie." Young Master Li Qingfeng's face instantly turned as pale as snow.

Marquis Wuan said with a calm expression, "Who did you just say you wanted to kill?"

Young Master Li Qingfeng looked embarrassed and hurriedly responded, "I truly didn't know it was you, Uncle Xie."

Then, he hesitated and asked, "Weren't you always with my father? How did you suddenly..."

Marquis Wuan's gaze was like a sharp blade as he coldly replied, "What? Do I need to notify you specifically every time I return?"

Young Master Li Qingfeng hurriedly said in a panic, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare."

Just then, Marquis Wuan appeared in front of Young Master Li Qingfeng in an instant, like a ghost.

He said calmly, "Where is Xi Yun?"

Young Master Li Qingfeng was stunned and replied with a puzzled look, "Uncle Xie, isn't Xi Yun at the Investigation Bureau?"

Upon hearing this, Marquis Wuan's brows furrowed tightly.

At this moment, Feng Tao and Qin Xiaogan happened to arrive on the city walls.

Feng Tao shouted loudly, her emotions running high, "Young Master Li Qingfeng, stop playing dumb! Xiao Qin saw with his own eyes that you kidnapped Xi Yun!"

Young Master Li Qingfeng's face darkened instantly, and he angrily retorted, "You two pieces of trash, stop spouting nonsense here."

"Jiang Sheng! How are you handling things?"

Jiang Sheng lowered his head and remained silent.

Feng Tao snorted coldly and said with a mocking tone, "Kill us to cover up your conspiracy, is that it?"

Young Master Li Qingfeng was trembling with rage and roared, "You crazy woman, which eye of yours saw me kidnap Xi Yun?"

Marquis Wuan lightly made a grabbing motion in the air with his right hand, seemingly casually.

Qin Xiaogan appeared instantly in Marquis Wuan's hand, like a puppet with no power to resist.

Marquis Wuan stared coldly at Qin Xiaogan and asked icily, "Where is she?"

Marquis Wuan was not stupid.

Whether it was Young Master Li Qingfeng or the Marquis of Huainan behind him, logically, there was no reason for them to kidnap Xie Xiyun.

Feng Tao watched helplessly as Qin Xiaogan was gripped tightly by Marquis Wuan.

She was immediately anxious and hurriedly said, "Marquis, he..."

"Shut up." Marquis Wuan glanced coldly at Feng Tao.

Feng Tao was so frightened by this glance that she quickly covered her mouth.

Yet, Feng Tao's eyes were still filled with worry, staring intently at Qin Xiaogan.

The corners of Qin Xiaogan's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a strange smile.

Marquis Wuan's brows furrowed, and he increased the pressure on his hand: "What did you do to her?"

Qin Xiaogan smiled and said, "Marquis, if you ask me like that, it's hard for me to answer you."

Feng Tao stared blankly at the completely different Qin Xiaogan before her, her heart sinking suddenly.

Young Master Li Qingfeng stood to the side, also frowning tightly, and said with a puzzled face, "Uncle Xie, could it really be that this kid kidnapped Xi Yun?"

Marquis Wuan remained silent, his gaze fixed intently on Qin Xiaogan's eyes.

His gaze was sharp and focused, as if he wanted to pierce directly into Qin Xiaogan's heart with his eyes.

Qin Xiaogan looked at Marquis Wuan with a composed expression, meeting his gaze.

His face was as calm as water, and he said lightly, "Killed her."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked.

This was the daughter of Marquis Wuan; he just killed her like that?

Marquis Wuan's body shook, and he froze instantly. His pupils dilated suddenly at that moment, as if he couldn't believe what he had heard.

Immediately following this, endless rage surged from the depths of his heart like a raging tide, almost consuming him entirely.

An extremely powerful and immensely oppressive aura, like a surging tide, emanated continuously from Marquis Wuan. The aura seemed to carry a heavy pressure, making the surrounding air seem to stagnate.

The smile on Qin Xiaogan's face at this moment seemed like it was about to break free from all restraints, unable to be suppressed.

Feng Tao stared blankly at this person before her who was both familiar and strange, her expression extremely complex, her eyes revealing a light intertwined with various emotions.

"Die!" Marquis Wuan roared, waving his arm violently and throwing Qin Xiaogan fiercely into the air.

Instantly, a large expanse of rain seemed to be drawn by a force, quickly wrapping around Qin Xiaogan and trapping him tightly within.

Following that, a sharp pain, as if ten thousand swords were piercing his heart, quickly spread to every corner of Qin Xiaogan's body.

The pain was like maggots on bones, frantically eroding every inch of his body and nerves.

"Very good, hahahaha."

Hearing Qin Xiaogan's laughter, the crowd was momentarily bewildered.

Is this guy a lunatic?

Marquis Wuan's eyes were as cold as water in a frozen pool.

He stared straight at Qin Xiaogan in the air and asked in a grim tone, "Where is she!"

Qin Xiaogan endured the excruciating pain that washed over him like a tide, yet he still squeezed out a smile and said slowly, "Dead."

Upon hearing this, Marquis Wuan took a deep breath.

Then he slowly closed his eyes, as if trying his best to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.

[Lingyun Tide-Breaking Rain]

"Puchi!!"

"Puchi!!"

[Congratulations to the host for completing 198 deaths]

[Promotion points 60%]

Everyone on the city walls only felt the sound of sharp swords cutting through flesh and blood in their ears; the sound was so clear and terrifying.

After a very long time.

Feng Tao stared blankly at the blood mist slowly dissipating in the air, her lips trembling slightly: "It was actually death by a thousand cuts... Xiao Qin."

Marquis Wuan slowly turned his head and cast his gaze toward the stunned Young Master Li Qingfeng.

He said in a low and dignified voice, "Tell me in detail about everything that happened today."

Upon hearing Marquis Wuan's words, Young Master Li Qingfeng inadvertently shuddered violently and hurriedly replied, "Yes!"

Afterwards, Young Master Li Qingfeng looked hesitant, calculating in his heart how exactly to begin.

Just then, a voice that surprised everyone suddenly rang out.

"Long-lost pain."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice with horror.

Qin Xiaogan had a bored expression, sitting lazily on the ground, carelessly fiddling with his fingernails.

His fingers curled and then stretched from time to time.

He radiated an air of utter boredom, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him, and he let out a faint sigh from time to time.

Marquis Wuan's face was filled with gravity, his eyes fixed tightly on the other person, and he said in a deep voice, "Who exactly are you?"

Young Master Li Qingfeng only then recovered from his shock. He gritted his teeth and said excitedly, "I know! He is Emperor Qin! That immortal Emperor Qin!"

Upon hearing this, Marquis Wuan's brows furrowed tightly, and he asked suspiciously, "Immortal?"

Young Master Li Qingfeng hurriedly replied, "Yes! No matter what method we use, we cannot kill him; this must be a special ability he possesses."

Then, he added excitedly, "And, he also killed my sister!"

When he said this, a hideous expression instantly appeared on Young Master Li Qingfeng's face, his eyes filled with hatred and anger.
