Thousand Face Demonic Concubine Chapter 9.1

Chapter 9.1 - Long time no see




It was only the day after that Li Jingsheng finally came back to his rooms with a pale face.

Just as he stepped inside, his subordinate stopped him. “Second gentleman, there’s been an incident!”

“Oh?” He rubbed the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows as his head began to hurt.

Last night, he fell asleep on some gra.s.s on the city outskirts. When he woke up, he had a splitting headache, especially when he thought about -- wait, third brother!

Last night, he killed his third brother?

Li Jingsheng’s face paled further, grabbed his subordinate by his lapels and sinisterly growled, “Did you see something?”

“Wha, what?” His subordinate was terrified, trembling, “Second, second gentleman, you, you wouldn’t happen to also know that the third gentleman also turned into a human skin painting again, would you?

“...” Human skin painting? Again?

Li Jingsheng stopped blankly, his eyebrows furrowed, “What do you mean?” He loosened his hands.

The subordinate was terrified as he quickly got on his knees, “Second gentleman, third gentleman disappeared again and last night, the city gate guard discovered human skin that was like the third gentleman’s on the city tower. The official was just about to ask you to see!”

G.o.d knows how scared he was when he didn’t see the second gentleman this morning, and even moreso when he was nearly choked to death when he did see him!

Li Jingsheng was completely shocked, what was this?

He clearly remembered that he had killed his third brother last night … could last night have just been a dream?

He suddenly turned around and walked towards his room.

He pushed the door open and the originally bloodstained floors were magically spotlessly clean.

Only a single dagger lay on the floor and there was no sign of Li Ziqing’s corpse. There was no blood, no human skin … could last night really have been a dream?

Li Jingsheng slowly lifted up his head and subconsciously rubbed his forehead. He accidentally pulled his arm and it hurt so much that he suddenly crinkled his brows.

After the pain, his face suddenly paled.

He lifted up his sleeve and there it was, a large wound.

This was from last night when third brother …

Last night, wasn’t a dream? Wasn’t a dream??

“Second gentleman?” Li Jingsheng’s facial expression wasn’t right and the subordinate couldn’t help but call out.

Li Jingsheng startled, suddenly grabbing the dagger from the ground and throwing it at his subordinate, “Go! Get rid of it! And this! And this! Throw out everything in this room! Now! Faster!”

The subordinate was shocked by Li Jingsheng and afraid to say anything more, hurriedly started to pack up everything.

Just as he saw the b.l.o.o.d.y mandala flower, he stopped, “Second, second gentleman, do I have to get rid of this too?”

Li Jingsheng suddenly turned around and when he saw the b.l.o.o.d.y mandala flower, that blood red completely provoked him.

He quickly walked towards it and in one move, threw it out of the window.

No, he didn’t kill his third brother last night! It was just an illusion!

Yes!

It was just all an illusion!

The atmosphere became strange as the two people’s moods changed.

Li Jingsheng was becoming anxious and unnerved and the subordinate was still terrified of Li Jingsheng.

As the two were occupied with their own thoughts, no one noticed as another person soundlessly appeared in the courtyard.
