After Tang Li and Xiang Wanwan walked out of the banquet hall, she asked, “What happened? Why did Ziqing faint?”

Xiang Wanwan, who was one step behind her, was at a loss for words.

Tang Li suddenly stopped and looked into her eyes.

Xiang Wanwan’s heart skipped a beat and she quickly said, “Just now, I was talking to Young… Young Master Lingxuan. Ziqing suddenly came over and pulled me away. Young Master Lingxuan still had something to say, so he didn’t let us go. Then, the two of them got into an argument. For some reason, Ziqing fainted as she spoke.”

Tang Li pretty much knew what was going on.

If she wasn’t wrong, Qi Lingxuan must have gotten the Artifact Spirit to hurt Su Ziqing with his sword aura.

At this thought, Tang Li’s expression turned even colder.

Xiang Wanwan was frightened by the expression on Tang Li’s face. She saw Tang Li quickly walk to the side and observed her expression as she followed her. After a few seconds, she asked, “Miss Tang, do you already know what happened to Ziqing?”

“Yes.” Tang Li said without stopping, “If I’m not wrong, it should be Qi Lingxuan who did it.”

These words made Xiang Wanwan widen her eyes in disbelief. She subconsciously wanted to speak up for Qi Lingxuan. “I was there too. They just had an argument and didn’t have any physical contact.”

Tang Li tilted her head to look at her again and asked, “Wanwan, have you fallen in love with him?”

Xiang Wanwan stopped in her tracks. She wanted to refute but chose to tell the truth. “Yes.”

Hence, she didn’t believe that Qi Lingxuan hurt Su Ziqing and hoped that it wasn’t him. Otherwise, she really wouldn’t know how to face him.

Tang Li nodded and continued walking without saying anything.

Xiang Wanwan was a little surprised that Tang Li didn’t ask further. She quickly followed her and bit her lips. “Miss Tang, do you not like him?”

“It’s not whether I like him or not. It’s just that to me, he is a different person.”

The male lead and female lead falling in love was how the book was supposed to progress. As long as Xiang Wanwan felt that Qi Lingxuan was good, Tang Li would not object. She only said, “As long as this person treats you sincerely, even if he betrays the world, he won’t betray you. You don’t have to care if others like him or not. It’s enough as long as you like him.”

Hearing that, Xiang Wanwan didn’t feel relieved. Instead, she felt like something was pressing on her heart. “If the person I like betrays the world, I won’t like him anymore.”

Tang Li tilted her head to look at her again and found that her expression was very firm.

The two of them quickly walked towards the place where Su Ziqing fainted.

After Su Ziqing fainted, Xiang Wanwan helped her to the lounge chair.

At this moment, a servant from the Qi family was taking care of Su Ziqing. Qi Lingxuan was not nearby.

When Tang Li and Xiang Wanwan walked over, the servant quickly greeted her, “Fourth Madam.”

Tang Li nodded and asked Wanwan, “Where did Qi Lingxuan go?”

Xiang Wanwan looked around before replying, “I was frightened when I saw Ziqing passing out just now. I came to look for you immediately. I don’t know where he went.”

Tang Li walked up to Su Ziqing, who was lying on the chair, and took her pulse. As she expected, Su Ziqing’s internal organs were injured by the Artifact Spirit.

This made Tang Li angry. She said to the servant, “You can leave now.”

The servant immediately left.

After the servant left, Tang Li took out a talisman in front of Xiang Wanwan and stuck it on Su Ziqing. The talisman flashed and Su Ziqing disappeared in the next second.

Xiang Wanwan widened her eyes and asked in surprise, “Miss Tang, where’s Ziqing?”

“I used a teleportation talisman to send her to my courtyard.”

With that, she took out her phone and called Qiqi and Linlin. She said to them, “Take good care of Ziqing.”

Then, she hung up and said to Xiang Wanwan, “Wanwan, go back to the banquet hall.”

“Miss Tang, are you going to look for him?” Xiang Wanwan clenched her fists. At this moment, she was both angry and worried about Qi Lingxuan, but under Tang Li’s powerful aura, she did not know what to say.

Tang Li glanced at her and decided to tell her something. “Just like you, Qi Lingxuan has a spirit in his body.”

These words made Xiang Wanwan’s eyes widen even more. She had always thought that no one would know about the book spirit living in her body, and she didn’t tell anyone.

Tang Li continued, “The book spirit that lives in your body can only help you learn and is not aggressive. However, the artifact spirit lives in Qi Lingxuan’s body. In the beginning, the artifact spirit was not very capable and could not hurt people. However, as the host slowly becomes stronger, it will also become stronger. The host can get the artifact spirit to hurt people.”

After Xiang Wanwan heard that, her face turned pale. After a long while, she asked with a trembling voice, “So was Ziqing injured by the Artifact Spirit?”

“Yes.”

Xiang Wanwan’s face turned even paler. She clenched her fists, as if she was controlling the anger in her.

Tang Li glanced at her and left.

After taking a few steps, she disappeared in front of Xiang Wanwan.

Xiang Wanwan closed her eyes tightly. When she opened them again, she said to the book spirit calmly, “I don’t think we’re compatible.”

The book spirit said after a few seconds, “Qi Lingxuan is just ambitious. If he doesn’t have an Artifact Spirit, he will put his ambition into business. Such a man is still very charming.”

“But there’s an Artifact Spirit in his body that can hurt people. If the people around me are hurt by him because of me, I’ll blame myself.”

The book spirit said, “Don’t be afraid. The ancestor will deal with that Artifact Spirit.”

“Ancestor?”

“Yes, her ancestor was the ancestor of divine artifacts. Although she didn’t take over this line of work, she is very powerful in other aspects, especially when it comes to controlling all divine artifacts. That’s why when we Artifact Spirits see her, we call her ancestor.”

…

Tang Li appeared in front of Qi Lingxuan.

Qi Lingxuan looked at Tang Li with a killing intent.

Tang Li sneered and said, “Looks like I was too kind to you in the past. That’s why you think you can hurt my family. Now, I’ll let you know the consequences of hurting my people.”

Qi Lingxuan looked at her with his wolf-like eyes and said arrogantly, “If you dare to make a move here, I’ll turn this wedding into a slaughterhouse.”

“You can try.”

After Tang Li finished speaking, a talisman quickly appeared in her hand. She waved the talisman in the air, and with a flash of light, they were teleported to a small space.
