"Is this the lifeline... So you still have such a miraculous technique, who is your master after all?"

After listening to Qiao Xiaoxiao's introduction, Chu Qianqiu couldn't believe it. He didn't expect such a sneaky move to exist in the world.

This sneaky move is indeed quite "unorthodox," but it can't be considered real sorcery.

"So, will you help me cut off the thread that is harmful to me?"

"What will happen to the person whose thread is cut?"

He asked again, curious about the specific situation of that Xiao Yan kid.

"Well, that guy who is harmful to you has already been subjected to my great misfortune technique."

"Now, as long as he has any ill intentions towards you, he will immediately become extremely unlucky, to the point where even drinking water could choke him to death."

"So you don't have to worry, for a long period of time, that guy shouldn't be able to do anything to you!"

Qiao Xiaoxiao said confidently, indicating that there shouldn't be any problems.

Chu Qianqiu was greatly surprised. He didn't expect that this originally imagined big trouble seemed to be gradually resolved.

"Is it true?"

"It's true, I swear!"

"Well, then I'll temporarily believe you."

"Shall we celebrate?"

"Sure, yay!"

The two clapped their hands to celebrate.

Meanwhile, in the direction of the Casting City.

A few days ago, at the Xiao Family.

After Chu Qianqiu and Liu Ruoyan escaped from the Casting City, Xiao Yan was brought back to the Xiao Family.

He stayed at the Xiao Family for a while before slowly waking up. There were his servants and his father by his side.

Meanwhile, the search operation in the city was still ongoing.

As the head of the family, Xiao Yan's father, Xiao Yan, needed his son to provide some information about the assailant.

"Son, who dared to assassinate you in broad daylight? Tell me the appearance, voice, and height of that person, so that your father can help you kill him."

Xiao Yan naturally thought that his son could remember such a small matter.

He was extremely angry now. Although his son was a waste, he dared to be humiliated and almost killed in the street. This was a direct slap to his face.

He had never been provoked like this before.

Since he took control of the Casting City, even the imperial guards of the empire had to be respectful to him and dare not show any temper.

After all, his strength was one aspect, and the benefits he could bring to the empire were another.

The Xiao Family had good relations with many small and large sects in the surrounding area, and they had frequent exchanges.

In addition, he always paid taxes to the empire on time, bringing considerable income to the empire.

Anyone who dared to provoke him in the Casting City was simply seeking death.

"Father, let me think..."

Seeing his father ready to help him seek revenge, Xiao Yan was naturally overjoyed.

He remembered the appearance of the person who attacked him on the street very clearly.

Because that person was extremely handsome, it was very difficult for ordinary people to forget.

He was just too handsome, so handsome that Xiao Yan was jealous, especially since the other party had won the favor of his goddess.

"I remember! His appearance is..."

Xiao Yan spoke up, ready to reveal everything.

At this moment, one of the servants beside him suddenly fainted for no apparent reason.

This person's head suddenly collided with Xiao Yan's head, causing Xiao Yan's brain, which had been constantly recalling memories, to suddenly crash and lose many thoughts.

"What are you doing?!"

Seeing his subordinate suddenly shoot an arrow, Xiao Yan grabbed the person and interrogated him.

The subordinate was also very aggrieved and said that he didn't know why, but his head was very dizzy just now, and when he came to his senses, he had already fallen and bumped into Young Master.

After listening to the description, the angry Xiao Yan threw him out of the door.

The person was quickly dragged out and taken away by other subordinates.

As for Xiao Yan, whose head crashed and lost consciousness, he couldn't remember Chu Qianqiu's appearance no matter how hard he tried to recall.

The area of his brain that stores recent memories was hit by the collision.

This area, when violently impacted, can cause a person to lose some of their previous memories.

Although the force of the collision from the subordinate was not strong, Xiao Yan's strength was too weak, and he couldn't withstand even this level of attack.

"I... um, I seem to have forgotten."

"What is my name?"

"Oh right, I'm Xiao Yan, the Thirty Years of River East..."

Xiao Yan said somewhat embarrassedly, almost forgetting his own name.

His father, Xiao Yan, cursed him directly, calling him a waste who couldn't even remember the enemies who wanted to kill him, a useless person.

"Damn it, I raised you for nothing!"

"How can you be such a waste!"

"Never mind, if you can't remember, those injured juniors who accompanied you outside should be able to remember, right?"

Saying that, Xiao Yan sent people to bring those heavily injured juniors and wanted them to explain the situation.

But those heavily injured juniors, who had just been rescued and were still wrapped in bandages, could only open their mouths to speak.

They had been burned by the fire and had just stabilized and regained consciousness, and now they were brought to the patriarch's side.

Just as Xiao Yan was about to ask something, he saw that all the juniors, after approaching his son, rolled their eyes and their conditions worsened, and they died on the spot.

This shocked Xiao Yan himself, not expecting such a situation.

"Damn it, how did they all suddenly die?"

He angrily questioned the physician who was still present.

The physician also expressed shock.

"Lord Patriarch, I don't know either. I clearly just stabilized their condition, so there shouldn't have been any problems for a while."

"I... I don't know what happened."

"Get out!"

Another angry rebuke, the bodies of those juniors, along with the physician, were carried out.

Now Xiao Yan was extremely angry, not knowing what had happened today, how unlucky things kept happening.

Now, his foolish son had forgotten the specific situation of the assassin, and those juniors who could report the situation had all died.

He could only resort to the last method to confirm who that person was at the time.

That is to conduct a city-wide search.

At the first moment of the incident, the Xiao family had the imperial city guards seal off the city gates.

Now, everyone was trapped inside the Melting City, and no one could leave.

He wanted to capture them one by one, and the killer would definitely reveal himself.

Thinking like this, Xiao Yan began to implement his plan.

During the days when Chu Qianqiu and Liu Ruoyan were away, he had been busy with this matter, basically doing useless work.

After interrogating almost all the suspects in the city, they were all eliminated one by one.

This made him very angry, not expecting the situation to be so difficult.

But fortunately, at the last moment, he finally received a useful piece of information.
