Qiu Mansion, meeting room with Qiu Jianluo and her father.
Father: To think you betrothed this slave to our Haitang when she belongs to us!
Qiu Jianluo: Oh, but you see, this slave is my half-brother, dear father, and I plan to do the same thing to him as Haitang… Ah, I can't wait to get inside them.
Father: Me too, Haha ha!
The father and son duo laughed, unaware that someone outside, near the meeting room door, had heard them.
It was someone other than Qiu Haitang, who held her mouth shut with her hands while shedding tears.
Her family wasn't who she thought it was. I have to leave, taking with me those who want to flee this mansion, in addition to my half-brother Shen Jiu.
During the preparations, Qiu Haitang found papers in his father's study that allegedly condemned his family, his work with demonic cultivators, and so on.
Qiu Haitang felt nauseous.
Two days later, the disappearance of the slaves, the female servants, and Miss Qiu caused a stir in the Qiu Mansion.
As the father and son searched everywhere, someone knocked on the mansion door, and they opened it to find themselves face to face with imperial soldiers.
Imperial Soldier: You are under arrest for inhumane crimes.
The Jianghu was shaken by the arrest of the entire noble Qiu family, who were later executed for grave crimes.
While on the roads toward Cang Qiong, two carts containing the ones the father and son were looking for were found.
