Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qin Dongxue flew to Ling Yun’s side in a fit of anger. She was fierce but measured at the same time. Naturally, she wouldn’t hurt Ling Yun.
Any remaining bloodstains on Ling Yun’s body were washed off during the struggle in the water, saving him the trouble of doing it himself. He found a huge piece of rock, stripped naked, and wrung the water out of his pants. He then changed into a set of stealth clothing from the spatial ring.
It was one of the eight sets of stealth clothing that Tie Xiaohu and Tang Meng prepared for him before he left Mansion Number One.
Ling Yun wrapped the original stealth clothing he wore around some stones before throwing them a hundred meters into the sea.
He sat casually on the beach while waiting for Qin Dongxue. His thoughts drifted elsewhere.
The Sun Family would definitely not be able to come after him anytime soon. His ma.s.sacre of the Sun Family tonight ensured that.
The a.s.sa.s.sins Organization hadn’t been active in Qingshui City since he killed the three Heaven-ranked killers. Ling Yun believed that the mastermind who wanted him dead probably shelved the notion temporarily.
This mysterious mastermind was what was weighing heavily on Ling Yun’s mind. An unknown enemy lurking in the shadows was scarier than any enemy he could just fight!
However, now that he had completed the Yin-Yang harmony balance, he would be able to attain Physique Tempering Stage Level Six in about a week. His ability could double, which would be enough to defend himself for the time being.
Zhuang Meifeng was brought to the Tranquil Sect, there was no word from Cao Shanshan after she returned to her clan, and Xiao Meimei was still missing.
Ling Yun hated Priestess Desireless to the core. The Tranquil Pill sounded very potent, but Ling Yun had the confidence that there would definitely be ways to overcome the problems from the Tranquil Pill.
Ling Yun would definitely bring Zhuang Meifeng back from the Tranquil Sect sooner or later.
Cao Shanshan went back to her clan in Beijing. Ling Yun didn’t think there would be much of a problem,
Therefore, what he was most worried about was the disappearance of Xiao Meimei. Where should he begin his search for the elusive a.s.sa.s.sins Organization?
There was also the mysterious Cui Lao. Why did Cui Lao decide to protect him once he saw him? He seemed to know a lot about him. Who on earth was he?
Ling Yun’s thoughts turned to his own mother. Qin Qiuyue left and was replaced by Qin Dongxue. There was no doubt that Aunty was sent by his mother to protect him and his sister.
Would Aunty be angry with me…?
A distant sound made by Qin Dongxue rang out behind him as he started to ponder.
Ling Yun got up hurriedly with a huge smile on his face, the dimples on his left cheek clearly visible. Absolutely charming.
“Aunty, you’re so beautiful, like a fairy that descended from the heavens…” Ling Yun started to curry favor seriously.
Qin Dongxue’s veil had long been washed away by the sea. Her beauty was comparable to Qin Qiuyue except for her eyes. Qin Dongxue’s eyes were cold and proud with a hint of fierceness. Her playful nature made Ling Yun ignore her age.
Her perfect figure was still very visible from the wet dress.
The dress fluttered in the air as the sea breeze blew, showing off the long slender legs that could potentially cause a nose bleed.
Qin Dongxue was both shy and angry. This rascal should be spanked! Nonetheless, she felt an inexplicable sense of pride as he exaggerated her beauty.
Qin Dongxue had spent the good part of the last twenty or so years in meditation and practice. While she wasn’t clueless about her beauty, there was no one to sing her praises.
“I really can’t do anything to you!” Qin Dongxue sighed helplessly before waving at him. “Come over…”
Ling Yun didn’t wait for her to say anything before appearing in front of her, not forgetting to flash a charming smile.
Ling Yun learned his lesson. He didn’t dare to steal another glance at Qin Dongxue’s body and focused all attention on Qin Dongxue’s face. “Aunty, are you alright?”
“Don’t you dare breathe a word of this to anyone. I’ll spank you if you do!” Qin Dongxue chided as she recalled the scene with embarra.s.sment.
Ling Yun nodded smilingly without another word.
Qin Dongxue’s cheeks were as red as a ripened apple. She managed to calm down after a long while and started to talk to Ling Yun.
“Where did your dry clothes come from, you rascal?” Qin Dongxue burst out with the most pressing question.
She let Bi Yuanjia go after asking him a few simple questions and rushed to the Zhuang Family’s villa, just in time to witness Ling Yun slaying the three Xiantian martial artists.
Qin Dongxue saw Ling Yun whipping out steel nails, the Dragon Vein Sword, and the Devil’s Blade from thin air like magic. How could she contain her curiosity after seeing a new set of clothes on Ling Yun?
Ling Yun grinned and lifted his left hand. “The mystery lies in this ring. It has storage s.p.a.ce. I call it the spatial ring.”
Qin Dongxue was filled with awe as she came forward to take a closer look at the spatial ring. “How did you get this baby?” she muttered under her breath.
“I was lucky, I found it in the streets,” Ling Yun replied cheekily.
Qin Dongxue smiled softly as she looked at Ling Yun. “Don’t lie to me, if you do, I’ll kick you, alright?”
Ling Yun feigned pain across his face and held where Qin Dongxue kicked him. “Aunty, please don’t kick me again, I have an internal injury where you just kicked…”
What color was left in Qin Dongxue’s face was drained away. She panicked. “What happened? I… I didn’t kick you all that hard just now, is it still hurting?”
Qin Dongxue no longer cared about anything else as she came forward immediately and stretched out her own crystal white hand to caress Ling Yun’s chest softly.
“Why didn’t you use your martial arts to dodge my kick?” Qin Dongxue asked guiltily with a pained look on her face.
Ling Yun felt the soft caress from Qin Dongxue and the warmth from her soft white hand. He didn’t have the heart to pain her any longer, as he knew that Qin Dongxue was really worried about him. “I’m a lot better now,” he said as he stepped back.
Ling Yun flipped his wrist and held the Devil’s Blade in his hand. “Aunty, I made this spatial ring myself by carving the spatial formation on it to create this independent s.p.a.ce. It can store things conveniently.”
Qin Dongxue nodded. She knew that spell formations had unfathomable power. Next, she pointed at the Devil’s Blade and said, “Is this the legendary Devil’s Blade?”
“I don’t know, actually. I only know that it’s so sharp that it’s abnormal. It can cut through steel as though its made of tofu. I used to call it the Dragon Scale Knife, but others said that it’s the Devil’s Blade…” Ling Yun replied.
“Let Aunty see!” Qin Dongxue said excitedly.
Ling Yun pa.s.sed the Devil’s Blade to Qin Dongxue after reminding her that the blade was really heavy.
“Ah…”
Qin Dongxue felt a slight chill from the blade in her hand and instinctively threw the blade away.
Ling Yun grabbed the blade before it fell to the floor and asked with slight annoyance, “What happened, Aunty? Is it too heavy?”
The Devil’s Blade weighed more than forty kilograms, but that shouldn’t have posed any problems to a Xiantian Realm Level Three master like Qin Dongxue.
Qin Dongxue’s pretty face was as white as a sheet as she stared at her left hand. “This knife has a strange evil aura, it seems to have a life of its own and will attack people at will…”
Ling Yun waved the Devil’s Blade gently but didn’t feel any abnormality. “I don’t feel any abnormality from it,” Ling Yun said while shaking his head.
Qin Dongxue looked at the Devil’s Blade and then looked at Ling Yun. “No wonder my sister said that you are different from normal people and wanted me to protect you. The most mysterious person is you!”
Ling Yun took the chance to ask about Qin Qiuyue. “Aunty, where did Mother go? She has never left us like this before. Lingyu is very worried!”
“She went to the Heavenly Sword Sect at Heavenly Mountain, someone is waiting for her there.” Qin Dongxue hesitated before replying.
“Heavenly Mountain? Heavenly Sword Sect? W-who is waiting for her?”
Qin Dongxue was filled with grief and resentment as she thought of Qin Qiuyue’s fate. Her brows furrowed as she squinted slightly. “The person who let her down and ruined her whole life is dying. He wants to see her one last time.”
“Aunty, please don’t keep me in suspense. Just let me know who is it!” Ling Yun said anxiously.
Qin Dongxue heaved an audible sigh. She knew that she wouldn’t be able to keep it from Ling Yun for too long. “Shouldn’t you have figured it out already?”
“That is Lingyu’s biological father, Ning Tianya!”
Ling Yun was dumbfounded!
“Ning Tianya? Lingyu’s biological father?”
Qin Dongxue’s body trembled slightly as she peered at Ling Yun. “The Qin Family received the news and thought it best to let Sister know and decide for herself. I was the messenger.”
“Remember, Sister said that this cannot be divulged to Lingyu.”
Qin Dongxue felt as though a weight in her heart had been lifted. At the same time, her beautiful eyes were clouded by crystal tears.
Will Sister be able to return?
