That expert was one of her enemies, and the other enemies were the family wiped out by the expert.
In terms of martial arts, she wanted to kill these enemies was absolutely impossible.
So, she used transforming appearance to set a trap, over the course of half a year, made the expert fully believe she was his wife.
Guiding the expert to help her, eradicate her great enemies.
Ultimately, the expert also died in the plan set long ago, in a siege...
No one knew why the expert suddenly went insane and killed an entire family.
No one realized they became a knife in someone else’s hands.
They only thought they were ridding the Martial World of evildoers, they were great heroes! They emerged and advanced!
Yet they didn’t know, that this woman who knew no martial arts, used transforming appearance and Disguise Art, avenged a colossal blood feud for herself.
For this reason, Chu Qing always felt, in the Martial World, what can kill isn’t just martial arts.
Martial arts are just the foundation.
However, if one only knows how to rely on martial arts and wins by force, they are bound to fall into the third-rate.
One day, they might become a knife in someone else’s hand without even realizing it.
Because there are truly clever people in this martial world, they manipulate hearts, killing without bloodshed, and murder invisibly.
Of course, up to now, Chu Qing still doesn’t know, in the story Bai Qi told, which side is good and which is evil.
After all, he himself stands not quite right, so how could he define the good and evil of others?
But this little story, which even made Gentle say ’afraid’, was somewhat unexpected for Chu Qing.
Gentle thought carefully for a moment:
"It is indeed a bit terrifying... the intention is quite terrifying."
Chu Qing nodded:
"Let’s go, these things count as unexpected gains.
"After returning to the stronghold later, I need you to do something for me."
"What is it?"
Gentle asked.
Chu Qing smiled:
"In my room, create the illusion that we are having a heart-to-heart conversation. I plan to, wait for the rabbit."
The plan to wait for the rabbit was already in Chu Qing’s mind once he knew there was a hiding place here.
Deceitful Poison is just a minor character, not worth mentioning.
What really deserves attention are those on the Evil Extermination List.
But small characters could also bring big trouble, especially those skilled in poison, the most feared in the martial world.
Now that this nail is pulled out, other matters can continue.
First, let Gentle and the ’Third Young Master’ have a heart-to-heart talk in the room to let everyone know that the ’Third Young Master’ has never left the stronghold.
Then, in the identity of the ’Night Emperor’, go find Tie Lingyun, tell him the identity of the contact person, let him keep an eye on it, don’t make a move yet, and don’t draw attention to avoid alarming the enemy.
Finally, Chu Qing came to the hiding place... waiting for the rabbit.
These things sound complicated, but they are not difficult to execute.
The only slight challenge is the initial secret probing when the ’Night Emperor’ meets Tie Lingyun for the first time, but Chu Qing is quite adept at this.
Therefore, without waiting for the night, Chu Qing had already returned to the hiding place, quietly waiting for the opponent to show up.

...
The night at Ghost God Gorge seemed truly linked to demons and gods.
The gale within the gorge howled, each sound resembling the weeping of fierce ghosts.
And at the edge of Ghost God Gorge, there was now a scholar wearing a mask with a face design.
He was dressed in white, standing with his hands behind his back at the edge of the cliff, as if he could fall at any moment.
A coughing sound arose from behind, very sudden, but it did not startle the scholar.
He only furrowed his brow slightly and turned to look at the new arrival.
This was an old woman, over fifty, with gray hair, wearing a mask of the Mirror of Sin.
"Old Madam Withered Butterfly?"
The scholar spoke faintly, with a slight tone of inquiry.
The old woman did not look up, only muttering to herself:
"Whose child is this, at this hour, not resting at home, how did you end up in a place like this, enticing the wind and the moon?
"Come, come, if your parents don’t love you, granny loves you... how about that?"
As she spoke, her wrist shook, and she suddenly held a wooden doll.
Gently shaken:
"Look, is this fun?"
"Not fun."
The scholar responded coldly:
"Don’t touch me, be careful or you might not keep your head."
As soon as he spoke, the doll in Old Madam Withered Butterfly’s hand flew out, and the scholar’s robe sleeve waved, a burst of gang wind shook, and the wooden doll was immediately fixed in mid-air.
The doll spread its arms, revealing two sharp little knives, its gestures changing with Old Madam Withered Butterfly.
In the air, came a sound like tearing fabric, forcibly tearing open the scholar’s gang qi, heading straight for the scholar’s forehead.
"Courting death!!"
The scholar was furious, his feet unmoved, suddenly lifting his arm to point, like adding eyes to a dragon!
Seeing that this finger was about to fall on the doll,
A figure suddenly descended from the sky.
With hands clasped, a monk wearing a face mask with a bitter expression appeared between the two.
The doll’s knife, the scholar’s finger, both fell on the monk’s body.
Yet like striking defeated leather, causing no harm to him.
The bitterness on the monk’s face seemed to deepen, and he spoke softly:
"Friends, why such strife here?"
