"Phew …"
At dawn, Ling Yun, who was cultivating alone in the small courtyard, slowly opened his eyes. There was a flash of light in his handsome eyes.
"Qi Cultivation Stage One, my body has finally recovered completely."
Ling Yun looked into his body and said calmly.
After more than half a month of recovery, Ling Yun's body had finally returned to its peak condition.
His energy center rotated rapidly, and the Yin-Yang True Qi in his energy center was completed. New Yin-Yang True Qi shot out from the Yin-Yang Fish Eye and flowed through Ling Yun's twelve main meridians and eight extraordinary meridians.
After reaching the Qi Cultivation Stage, Ling Yun's Conception and Governing Meridians had long been opened. Now, all the True Qi in his body had formed a perfect cycle.
Now, all of Ling Yun's meridians had been restored to their original state, and all of his acupoints had returned to normal.
What was different from before was that every acupoint of Ling Yun's was shrouded in a faint white halo. The halo looked weak, but it was pure and holy.
"Looks like this is the legendary Power of Faith."
Black and white yin and yang energy, as well as golden dragon spiritual energy, these three majestic auras flowed rapidly in his meridians, unimpeded, all the way up to his glabella, where they slowly flowed and transformed into divine energy.
Ling Yun released his divine sense and expanded it to its limit, covering a radius of a thousand meters. Within the range of his divine sense, he only needed to move his divine sense, and he would be able to know the situation at the back of his hand.
His realm steadily reached the middle of the first level of Qi Condensation.
With a smile on his face, Ling Yun sat cross-legged without moving. He raised his index finger and pointed forward gently.
"Whoosh …"
A bolt of lightning as thick as a thumb shot out of thin air from the tip of Ling Yun's index finger and hit the tree two meters in front of him. With a loud crack, the tree trunk that was electrocuted was instantly charred black!
This was the power of lightning in Ling Yun's body!
"Hehe, this is a sure-kill technique for sneaking up on people …"
Next, Ling Yun continued to cultivate the Stellar Condensation Technique. He only stood up and ended his cultivation when the sun was high up in the sky.
"Meifeng, this courtyard contains too many beautiful memories. Wait for me, I will definitely save you and bring you back."
Ling Yun suddenly came here alone because he missed Zhuang Meifeng.
At that time, Ling Yun was still at the peak of Physique Tempering Stage Level 3. Now, he was already a Qi Cultivation Stage Level 1 cultivator. He already had the strength to dominate China.
Then, Ling Yun flew out of the courtyard and onto the road outside. He hailed a taxi and went straight to Mansion Number One.
After returning to Mansion Number One, Ling Yun had his breakfast and left for Qingshui Wharf after giving some instructions to the people in the mansion.
Qin Changqing had already told Ling Yun that today was the day they would meet face to face.
At 8: 30 am, Ling Yun arrived at Qingshui Wharf's Mansion Number Nine. As soon as he entered the living room, he saw Qin Changqing sitting alone on the sofa, drinking tea.
"Grandfather Qin, where's Lingyu?"
Qin Changqing glanced at Ling Yun and smiled. "Lingyu has something to do and will only be back in the afternoon. Today, there are only the two of us here."
Ling Yun smiled. He knew that Lingyu had been sent away by Old Master Qin.
"Come and sit."
Qin Changqing didn't waste any time and directly invited Ling Yun to sit down.
Ling Yun obediently came to the sofa opposite Qin Changqing and sat face to face. At the same time, he put on a look that said he was all ears.
"I know that you were seriously injured some time ago. How are your injuries now?"
"Thank you for your concern, Grandfather Qin. My body is now as good as new."
Qin Changqing smiled and said, "That's good. Ling Yun, there's something Grandfather Qin wants to ask you. You can answer it or not, it doesn't matter."
Ling Yun smiled and said, "Grandfather Qin, if you have something to ask, I will definitely tell you everything I know!"
"What realm are you in now? Can you tell me?"
Ling Yun heard that and realized that Qin Changqing was asking him this. He immediately smiled and said, "I don't dare to hide it from Grandfather Qin. I'm currently at Qi Cultivation Stage Level 1 and have stabilized at the middle stage."
Qin Changqing's hand that was holding the teacup stopped immediately. He looked at Ling Yun and smiled. "Oh? Qi Cultivation Stage Level 1? Seems like Grandfather Qin guessed correctly. You are indeed a cultivator. "
Qin Changqing was very satisfied with Ling Yun's answer.
Ling Yun didn't plan to hide it. He directly nodded and said with a smile, "Junior is indeed a cultivator. My master is from the Immortal Physician Sect. My master travels the world all year round. I am the only successor of the Immortal Physician Sect."
Ling Yun thought about it. His sudden heaven-defying rise would inevitably cause others to be suspicious. Instead of hiding it, it was better to make up a reasonable identity for himself and give the outside world an explanation.
He was originally an Immortal Physician. Moreover, every time someone asked him about the origin of his master, he would use this illusory Immortal Physician Sect to deal with it. Therefore, he might as well directly turn the fake into the real thing.
"Grandfather Qin, I said that I'm a cultivator, but you aren't surprised at all. It seems like you have some understanding of the cultivators in Huaxia."
The current Ling Yun really wanted to know for sure whether there were cultivators in Huaxia. And Qin Changqing was undoubtedly the best person qualified to answer this question.
Qin Changqing smiled and nodded. "That's right. Of course I have some understanding of cultivators. That's because what I'm going to tell you next is related to cultivators!"
"It's the Dharma Ending Era now. The spiritual energy on Earth has dried up. The cultivators in Huaxia mainly focus on ancient martial arts. Even if they reach Xiantian Realm Level Nine and possess supernatural powers, they basically think that this is the embodiment of the pinnacle of martial arts."
With just a few words, Qin Changqing had more or less explained the situation of the ancient martial arts practitioners in Hua Xia. Then, he glanced at Ling Yun and said, "But Ling Yun, since you are a cultivator, you should know that after they cultivate to the extreme, they don't have the Cultivation Method and don't know how to continue cultivating."
"Am I right?"
Ling Yun instantly knew that Qin Changqing didn't just understand cultivation. In fact, he understood it very well!
"Grandfather Qin is very thorough. This is the truth."
The Stellar Condensation Technique, the Omnipotent Water Control Technique, the Supreme Green Emperor Technique, the Arctic Ice Technique, the Yellow Springs Earth Emperor Technique …
Tie Xiaohu, Ning Lingyu, Miao Xiao Miao, Lin Menghan, Yao Rou … Weren't these people cultivating?
It didn't matter how high or low their realms were, because what they practiced was the Cultivation Method. Of course, they were cultivating.
"Grandfather Qin, I didn't expect you to know so much about cultivators. Could it be that you've seen a real cultivator?"
The two of them finally got to the point after chatting for a long time.
Qin Changqing smiled but didn't answer the question directly. Instead, he changed the topic. "Ling Yun, Dong Xue has been with you for so long. How much do you know about the Qin Family?"
Ling Yun shook his head and said frankly, "Grandfather Qin, to be honest, Aunty didn't tell me much about the Qin Family, so I don't know much about it."
Qin Changqing nodded and smiled. "Then, do you know about Emperor Qin's Mausoleum?"
Emperor Qin's Mausoleum?
Ling Yun's heart skipped a beat. He immediately answered seriously, "Emperor Qin's Mausoleum is the mausoleum of Emperor Qin. In Huaxia, anyone who has studied history and geography would know about it."
He didn't expect Qin Changqing's next sentence to be earth-shattering!
"Our Qin Family is the tomb keeper of Emperor Qin's Mausoleum. It has been passed down for more than two thousand years!"
"What?!"
Ling Yun stood up abruptly. He couldn't hide the shock in his eyes!
The Qin Family was actually the tomb keeper of Emperor Qin's Mausoleum?!
No wonder their surname was Qin. No wonder Qin Changqing knew so much about cultivators in Huaxia. How many secrets were left behind after more than two thousand years of inheritance?!
"Sit down and talk."
Ling Yun was shocked, but Qin Changqing was very calm. It was as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"Ling Yun, this matter isn't a secret among the real big families in Huaxia, such as the Long Family and the Ye Family."
"I'm telling you now so that you know what's going on. However, what we're talking about today isn't related to this matter."
Ling Yun nodded and sat down. It seemed like Qin Changqing didn't intend to talk too much about this topic.
After Ling Yun sat down, Qin Changqing continued, "Ling Yun, do you remember what I said the day I arrived? I told you not to speculate about Qiuyue's matter. After the Heaven and Earth Group opens for business, I'll tell you everything that happened that year?"
Ling Yun was here for this matter. He nodded solemnly. "I remember."
Pain flashed in Qin Changqing's eyes. He said in a low voice, "Then I'll tell you what happened that year."
"Eighteen years ago …"
Under Ling Yun's expectant gaze, Qin Changqing began to narrate.
It turned out that eighteen years ago, after Qin Qiuyue reached the Xiantian Realm, she went out to travel. Who knew that she would meet someone called Ning Tianya?
Ning Tianya was handsome, confident, and had an imposing appearance. The moment he met the devastatingly beautiful Qin Qiuyue, they fell in love at first sight.
At that time, both of them were in their twenties. Coincidentally, they crossed the line between a man and a woman and got together.
Normally, a man and a woman should get married, and both of them were from the pugilistic world. Who knew that things would develop beyond everyone's expectations?
Qin Qiuyue was a young girl, so she was fine. But who knew that Ning Tianya came from a hidden family in Huaxia — the Ning Family!
Not only that, when Ning Tianya brought Qin Qiuyue back to the Ning Clan and requested the elders of the Ning Clan to go to the Qin Clan to propose marriage, he found out that the elders of the Ning Clan had already arranged a marriage for him without his knowledge.
This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Ning Tianya and Qin Qiuyue who had fallen in love!
Ning Tianya immediately decided to break off the engagement. Even if he had to run away from the family and elope with Qin Qiuyue, he wanted to be with her.
It was this decision that caused the Ning Family to offend the girl who was engaged to them.
"And at that time, the girl who was engaged to the Ning Family was the daughter of the sect leader of the Heaven Mountain Heaven Sword Sect!"
At this point, Qin Changqing suddenly stopped. A trace of humiliation flashed in his eyes. (To be continued.)
