My Father Is Definitely Possessed-Chapter 273 - 169: Do You Know Li Changqing? (3)

Li Changqing nodded, then returned with the disciples of Zhanhe Mansion.

When they arrived, there were three elders from Zhanhe Mansion, but only one returned. One mysteriously disappeared, likely at the hands of the Longevity Sect, and another was killed by a strong Ghost Race member during the final battle against them.

Such a result can be considered very tragic.

The black crow of Zhanhe Mansion had just taken off when a figure jumped onto it, landing directly by Li Changqing’s side—it was Lin Qingyi.

Li Changqing glanced at Lin Qingyi and then asked, "Lord Lin is also returning with us to Zhanzhou State?"

"There were too many people just now; naturally, it wasn’t convenient to talk to you," Lin Qingyi sat lazily, then said, "As I mentioned before, this time Celestial Sea City owes you a favor. If you have any requests, you can bring them up. Once we return, I can discuss them with the Realm Master."

"Anything?" Li Changqing asked.

"Pretty much," Lin Qingyi said, "After all, you solved a huge problem for us and even sacrificed two precious Buddha Treasures. So we will seriously consider your request, as long as you don’t ask for the position of Realm Master Cangyuan."

"Alright."

Li Changqing had no interest in the position of Realm Master Cangyuan. He whispered a few words into Lin Qingyi’s ear.

Lin Qingyi was taken aback, looked at Li Changqing in surprise.

"Is that possible?" Li Changqing asked.

"No problem," Lin Qingyi replied. "Alright, now that’s settled, I’ve got something else to ask the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable."

"What do you want to ask?" Li Changqing asked curiously.

"Nothing important, just wanted to ask about someone," Lin Qingyi looked ahead, her long hair fluttering in the wind, her eyes particularly bright, "I wanted to ask if you know someone named Li Changqing."

Hearing Lin Qingyi mention his name, Li Changqing paused for a moment, then nodded, "I know him."

"Can you tell me about him?" Lin Qingyi asked.

"What do you want to know?" Li Changqing felt something was off with Lin Qingyi. Why was he suddenly inquiring about him?

Li Changqing had always been quite a transparent character; nothing about him should warrant attention from someone like Lin Qingyi.

"Not much, I’ve just heard that he moved to Changting Town with a newborn son over ten years ago. I’m investigating a few things and wanted to find out about this father and son. Since you know them, I thought I’d ask you."

"Do you know where Li Changqing lived before coming to Changting Town?" Lin Qingyi turned to ask.

"I have no idea," Li Changqing shook his head.

He genuinely didn’t know.

This was not only something Lin Qingyi wanted to know, but also something he wanted to find out.

After he transmigrated here, Li Changqing was already dead. He was reborn using Li Changqing’s body but without any memories of the original host.

Anything related to the original host was pieced together from the scant information he found at home.

Where did he live before?

Where did he come from?

Who was his wife?

He knew none of it.

"You really don’t know?" Lin Qingyi chuckled.

"I swear, I don’t know!" Li Changqing said firmly.

"Alright then," Lin Qingyi said, perhaps genuinely believing him or perhaps not, "If you don’t know, forget it. I was just asking anyway."

"Can I ask what you’re investigating about Li Changqing?"

Li Changqing was now more concerned about this question. He should have always been keeping a low profile, so there shouldn’t be anything that would attract attention from Celestial Sea City.

If it was the identity of the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable being noticed, that might be possible, but for Li Changqing to be noticed, it was puzzling to him.

So he thought to probe Lin Qingyi to see if there was any way to get some information.

"Are you very curious?" Lin Qingyi asked in return.

"Sort of, since I know Li Changqing, I’m curious if he’s gotten into some trouble. If he has, I should keep some distance from him," Li Changqing said with a laugh full of fabricated sincerity.

"Not really," Lin Qingyi sighed lightly, "Do you know about the Yue family?"

"I’ve heard of them."

"I heard that the Yue family is one of the strongest families in the Cangyuan Realm and should fall under Celestial Sea City, also under the Realm Master," Li Changqing responded.

"The Yue family once had a genius named Monarch Yuehan," Lin Qingyi said.

Monarch Yuehan again?

Li Changqing frowned. Previously, Li Jingsong had asked him this question, asking if he knew Monarch Yuehan.

He wasn’t certain if the original host knew him, but he definitely didn’t.

"Well, Monarch Yuehan stole an artifact from Celestial Sea City. After being captured, the artifact was nowhere to be found on him. Later, the Realm Master determined through various means that the artifact was taken to the Eastern Wilderness."

"There are many things in between I won’t go into detail about."

"In short, during my investigation, I found this Li Changqing a bit suspicious."

"No way?" Li Changqing felt really wronged.

What artifact?

Since he came, he had searched the entire Evergreen Painting Workshop, even when starving, he couldn’t find a single sweet potato, let alone a treasure!

Even if there was indeed a treasure, the previous Li Changqing would have sold it for paper to paint on.

"Who knows, it’s still under investigation," Lin Qingyi said lazily.

"Well, since you don’t know Li Changqing’s background, that only makes me more curious about him being problematic." Lin Qingyi stood up, "I need to go now. Next time I’m in Zhanzhou, you promised to treat me to chicken better than that braised chicken."

With that, Lin Qingyi leaped off the black crow and flew away.

"Sigh."

"Yet another troublesome person," Li Changqing remembered what Xue Qianbai had told him before, that Lin Qingyi was a troublesome person.

Now, he finally understood.

What did that Monarch Yuehan steal, and what did it have to do with him?

Just because he settled in Changting Town over ten years ago?

That’s too far-fetched, isn’t it?

And what about that Realm Master Cangyuan, so impressive yet can’t exactly foretell anything?

Li Changqing decided to go back to the Evergreen Painting Workshop and search thoroughly. If there really was a treasure, he’d sell it off quickly.

Better safe than sorry.
