"The sister of Monarch Yuehan..."

Li Changqing looked somewhat surprised at the silver-haired girl.

In his heart, there was a stirring sensation.

The feeling was quite mysterious.

It was as if he was truly very familiar with this woman.

What exactly was going on?

Seeing Li Changqing’s expression was a bit off, Mu Qingge glanced at Yue Qingwu, then at Li Changqing, and couldn’t help but murmur, "I thought Mr. Changqing was a man whose heart remains still before beauties, yet it seems not!"

Clearly, he hadn’t shown such an expression when he first met her.

"Not really." Li Changqing heard Mu Qingge’s somewhat sarcastic comment and couldn’t help but smile wryly, truly because he felt an inexplicable sense of closeness from Yue Qingwu.

It was indeed strange.

Even if there were a blood relation, there shouldn’t be such a strong feeling.

There are many people in this world with blood relations, yet none seem to be like him.

At this moment, Yue Qingwu also seemed to sense something. She turned back, her silver eyes looking towards the distant tea stall, where Li Changqing and the other two were; Yue Qingwu’s eyes landed directly on Li Changqing.

She seemed to have sensed something too.

Spotted!

Li Changqing instinctively felt that Yue Qingwu’s eyes had somehow seen through him.

If the Yue family finds out about this, getting involved with them will become a real hassle.

If it gets known all over the city, it won’t be easy to replace Xie Yunsun.

So Li Changqing’s idea now is to avoid meeting Yue Qingwu and to leave first.

"Let’s go!"

Li Changqing stood up directly at this moment and said, "Find a place to hide first, I’ll shake her off and come find you."

After saying that, Li Changqing turned and left.

Mu Qingge and Zhen Wanshou did not make a sound, instead moving in another direction.

Seeing Li Changqing leave, Yue Qingwu also immediately followed.

At first, Li Changqing was just walking quickly down the street, and Yue Qingwu followed behind. As they walked, Li Changqing began to speed up, yet Yue Qingwu kept tailing relentlessly.

When they reached a less crowded area, Li Changqing turned into an alley and used his body technique, trying to shake off Yue Qingwu.

But Yue Qingwu was no rookie either, and the Yue family had been entrenched in Celestial Sea City for many years, a familiarity with the city Li Changqing couldn’t compete with.

"Trying to leave?"

Yue Qingwu hummed lightly, and just by glancing at the terrain, she knew roughly which direction Li Changqing was heading.

So Yue Qingwu directly gave chase.

She leaped gracefully into the air, her long dress fluttering, like a gracefully dancing butterfly, and in the blink of an eye, she vanished from sight.

Li Changqing didn’t fly through the sky because that would definitely attract the attention of experts in Celestial Sea City. The guards of Celestial Sea City were no pushovers; flying around aimlessly would attract countless eyes. Better to find a less crowded place to lose Yue Qingwu.

However, Li Changqing didn’t expect Yue Qingwu to be so persistent.

Li Changqing decided to go all out, his figure like a startling swan, disappearing under the moonlight.

"Snow Feather Zen Wind Skill?"

Seeing this body technique, Yue Qingwu was initially surprised, but she still chased after him. The Snow Feather Zen Wind Skill was a famous body technique in the Dao Mountain Ancient Land, but compared to the Yue family’s, it was somewhat inferior.

Coupled with Yue Qingwu’s own considerable strength, the distance between her and Li Changqing steadily closed.

Eventually, Li Changqing arrived in a dimly lit area, a place nearly deserted, with rows of abandoned houses, some even eerie.

Li Changqing didn’t expect such a place to exist in Celestial Sea City.

Since he was here, Li Changqing decided not to run anymore. If Yue Qingwu wanted trouble, he’d just knock her out here if need be.

Killing her was out of the question. Aside from their inexplicable bond, killing Yue Qingwu in Celestial Sea City would make it hard for him to get out alive.

Li Changqing simply stopped and waited for Yue Qingwu.

Curious to see what this woman wanted after all.

Atop an abandoned pavilion, Yue Qingwu landed and looked at the person in front of her closely, who wore a black robe and carried a large box on their back, obscuring his face.

But Yue Qingwu stepped forward to ask, "Li Changqing?"

Hearing Yue Qingwu directly call his name, Li Changqing was even more surprised. How did Yue Qingwu know his name?

He had never been to Celestial Sea City, nor had he ever interacted with anyone from the Yue family.

What exactly was going on?

"Why have you come to Celestial Sea City?" Yue Qingwu, seeing Li Changqing not answering, frowned and said, "This isn’t a place you should be. If you’re discovered, things will get very troublesome. Also, how do you have cultivation?"

"Why shouldn’t I possess cultivation?" Li Changqing found the question rather foolish.

"Hmm?" Yue Qingwu seemed to realize something, her surprise evident as she said, "Could it be you’ve already... indeed."

Yue Qingwu suddenly began muttering to herself.

"Why do you know me," Li Changqing asked. "I believe we’ve never met."
