Su Qing ignored her mother and aunt’s words. She looked at her mother and asked for the engagement token, the little silver bell.

“You want it now?”

When Yang Ruxue heard that her daughter wanted the silver bell, she wondered what she would do.

“Yes.”

Su Qing nodded. She had come back for the silver bell. She was already sure that the silver bell was the key to the box, but she still had to test her guess.

“I have bad news.”

Yang Ruxue looked at her daughter with difficulty. Su Qing looked up at her mother, and her heart skipped a beat.

“When I went to the monastery earlier…! didn’t take the silver bell and left it in Luo City.”

Yang Ruxue awkwardly told her daughter that she had left such an essential thing in Luo City’s old mansion while running for her life. If she delayed her daughter’s marriage, she would be a sinner.

Su Qing took a deep breath. It was useless to blame her mother when she looked at her. It seemed that he had to go back to Luo City.

“Mother, this silver bell is crucial. Where did you put it?”

“Because that silver bell is crucial, 1 didn’t put it randomly. I put it in a carved jewelry box and placed it in the cabinet that holds precious jewelry, but now…”

Yang Ruxue didn’t finish her sentence. They fled in a hurry and didn’t bring any of their belongings with them. Moreover, their house was raided later. The silver bell was gone.

“Can you tell me in detail what the box looks like?”

Su Qing’s heart was burning with anxiety. She regretted that she had only taken the gold, silver, and jewelry in the secret chamber and had forgotten to take her mother’s jewelry. She was pressed for time then, so she did not go to her mother’s inner room. She left the most important thing, the silver bell, in Luo City.

“Qing’er, are you going to Luo City? Don’t go. The silver bell is not there.”

Yang Ruxue looked at her daughter worriedly. Luo City was like a dragon’s den and a tiger’s den. A single silver bell was not worth her daughter taking the risk.

“Mother, that silver bell is crucial. I have to get it back.”

Su Qing did not allow her mother to continue persuading her. She took out a pen and paper and asked her mother to draw it for her quickly.

Yang Ruxue was forced by her daughter to draw the box’s design quickly. Su Qing put the design away and walked out.

“Qing’er, can you accompany Mother for a meal before leaving?”

When he saw his daughter’s hurried figure, Su Hanxuan had just returned to the inner residence. Madam was chasing after her and asking her questions. She was about to leave again.

Su Hanxuan stopped his daughter.

“Qing’er, why are you leaving so soon after coming back?”

“Father, I’ll return to the old Luo City house to get the silver bell.”

Su Qing said. Before her father could react, she walked past him and out the door.

“Miss, the government has already confiscated the old mansion.”

The old butler hurriedly reported to Su Qing. What could be left after being confiscated by the government? Even he would have died in Luo City’s prison without the young lady’s rescue.

“Yes.”

Su Qing only hummed in acknowledgment and did not stop. She ordered the servants to bring her and Ji Shuisheng’s horses over.

“Qing’er, don’t go back and take the risk.”

Su Hanxuan chased after his daughter and persuaded her not to return to Luo City. Su Qing glanced at her father.”

“Then the marriage will be canceled.”

Su Hanxuan was stunned for a moment and quickly said to his daughter,

“Without the silver bell, the benefactor will not go back on his word.”

“Father, you don’t know the importance of the silver bell. It’s not as simple as the engagement item between me and my fiance.”

That was all Su Qing had to say. She couldn’t say anything else to prevent others from hearing it and destroying the silver bell.

“… Alright, you must be careful.”

Su Hanxuan saw his daughter’s solemn expression. She had never shown such importance to anything before. The silver bell must be useful, and his daughter could not say it.

He didn’t ask his daughter to stay any longer. He only asked her to be careful. Although he knew his daughter was mighty, her old father was still worried.

“Alright.”

Su Qing nodded at her father. The tacit understanding between father and daughter was revealed without words.

“Are you going to let your daughter go to that dragon’s pool and tiger’s den?”

Yang Ruxue was so angry that she blamed her husband. She even hoped that he would be able to persuade her daughter, but in the end, he still supported her.

“Believe in Qing’er.”

Su Hanxuan touched his wife’s shoulder and comforted her softly.

“Believe what? Luo City is so dangerous; why did you let her go?”

Yang Ruxue pushed her husband away angrily and wanted to stop Su Qing. The servants had already brought the horse from the backyard. Su Qing did not wait for her mother to catch up and pulled the horse out of the gate.

When she reached the door and heard her mother crying, Su Qing stopped and turned to her parents.

“No one in this world can kill me. Don’t worry.”

Her words sounded arrogant to others, but Su Hanxuan believed his daughter’s words after so many things. He waved his hand at Su Qing and said.

“Alright, I’ll wait for you to return safely home.”

Su Qing nodded and led the horse out of the Su residence. Luan Hong was about to enter the courtyard when she saw Su Qing leading the horse away. She hurriedly asked,

“Sister, didn’t you agree to wait for the restaurant to open?”

“Luan Hong, you’ve worked hard. Tell Uncle Yang to send the Drunken Overlord to Tartan. Give him this waist token. He should pass the Drunken Overlord to the Third Prince when he reaches Tartan.”

When Su Qing saw her cousin, she took out the pass token given to her by the Emperor of Tartan and asked Yang Zhi to help deliver the goods. She had already promised the Third Prince and could not go back on her word.

“Don’t brew any other wine for now. Just brew Overlord Drunken Wine.”

Su Qing took out a packet of wine yeast and handed it to Luan Hong, instructing her to brew more Overlord Drunk.

Luan Hong took the wine yeast and looked at her cousin pitifully. She was doing nothing.

Luan Hong wanted to go with her cousin. She still missed the Blue Mountain Conference in Tartan.

Su Qing did not look at her cousin’s pitiful eyes. After leaving the Su residence, she frowned slightly. She had to find Ji Shuisheng as soon as possible, but where did he and Chu Jingfeng go to fight?

Just as Su Qing thought about where to find Ji Shuisheng, she ran into a patrolling army. The soldier at the front was the one who had followed Su Qing last time. His eyes lit up when he saw Su Qing. He quickly cupped his fists at Su Qing and said,

“Miss Su, how have you been?”

The last time they parted, he had been thinking about Su Qing day and night. The young man had fallen for Su Qing. Although he knew he was not worthy of her, it did not stop him from liking her.

“Vice General Lu, how have you been?”

Su Qing also recognized this young man. He seemed to be called Lu Xing and was a very good young man.

“You still remember me?”

Lu Xing asked Su Qing excitedly.

“Yes.”

Su Qing nodded. She didn’t know where to find Ji Shuisheng, so she asked the deputy general if he knew where the arena was. She cupped his fists at Lu Xing and asked.

“Deputy General Lu, 1 have something to ask you. Does Jingsu Dao have a martial arts arena?”

Su Qing was a young lady, but she was using a man’s etiquette, which stunned Lu Xing. However, after thinking about it, Su Qing was a child of the martial arts world. It was not strange for her to bow like this.

“If it’s a civil competition, it’s usually held at the abandoned military field in the western part of the city. Military competitions are held in special venues.”

Lu Xing patiently explained to Su Qing and asked her curiously.

“Miss Su, do you want to have a kung fu competition with someone?”

“No, I’m looking for someone.”

Su Qing had already mounted her horse. She said a few words to Lu Xing and rode away..
