"Grandpa Qin, what's the name of the daughter of the leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Ling Yun asked coldly. Qin Changqing's expression told him that Ling Yun was at the crux of the matter.
"Di. Xiaozhen!"
Qin Changqing was practically gnashing his teeth as he spat out the name word by word!
"Di Xiaozhen …" Ling Yun repeated the name and said coldly, "It seems like Di Xiaozhen didn't agree to Ning Tianya breaking off the engagement?"
Qin Changqing nodded with a gloomy expression and said in a deep voice, "That's right. Of course, Di Xiaozhen didn't agree to break off the engagement. Not only did she not agree to break off the engagement, she even brought the people of the Sky Sword Sect to the Ning Clan out of jealousy. She wanted to kill Qiu Yue to vent her anger!
At this moment, Ling Yun's eyes were as cold as a knife. He asked lightly, "Oh? What happened after that? "
Qin Changqing said, "Qiu Yue was heartbroken when she found out that Ning Tianya had an engagement. She was devastated when she saw Di Xiaozhen killing her way to the Ning Family."
"The Heaven Sword Sect is a cultivation sect. With the Ning Family's influence, they couldn't afford to offend the Heaven Sword Sect at all. When Di Xiaozhen arrived and saw Qiu Yue, she slapped her without any explanation. Qiu Yue vomited blood on the spot and was seriously injured."
Ling Yun's heart ached. He asked coldly, "Didn't Ning Tianya stop her?"
Qin Changqing shook his head and said painfully, "Stop her? Ning Tianya and Qiu Yue combined weren't Di Xiaozhen's match. How could they stop her? "
"Did no one care about the Ning Family?"
"That engagement was arranged by the Ning Clan's Clan Head and the Heavenly Sword Sect. The Ning Clan had already agreed to the engagement between Ning Tianya and Di Xiaozhen. Now that Ning Tianya has broken off the engagement, why would the Ning Clan interfere?"
Qin Changqing covered his face with his hands, as if he didn't want Ling Yun to see the pain on his face. "Unfortunately, my daughter was suffering outside. As her father, I didn't know at all!"
His precious daughter was suffering so much outside, and as a father, he didn't know at all. Even though eighteen years had passed, he still felt like his heart was being pierced by a knife.
But at this moment, Ling Yun was rather calm. He was terrifyingly calm!
"Alright, the Ning family doesn't care. What happened next?"
Qin Changqing wiped away his tears. "Fortunately, Ning Tianya truly liked Qiu Yue. He threatened to kill himself to save your mother …"
"In order to save Qiuyue, Ning Tianya also paid a huge price. Di Xiaozhen forced him to swear a blood oath in front of Qiuyue that he would never see Qin Qiuyue again in this life!"
"I'm not muddle-headed. By right, they had an engagement first. Qiu Yue and Ning Tianya were engaged after that. Now that something like this had happened, Qiu Yue being slapped by her is also the price Qiu Yue has to pay for her mistake."
"But …"
Qin Changqing's expression gradually became fierce. He gritted his teeth and said, "But, of all the things he shouldn't have done, he shouldn't have thought that Di Xiaozhen would be so vicious. After Ning Tianya made his vow, she actually asked Ning Tianya to marry her on the spot!"
The corners of Ling Yun's mouth twitched, and the corners of his eyes twitched!
This woman was a little too sinister!
If Di Xiaozhen's previous actions were out of jealousy, that would be understandable. But what she did later was to deliberately humiliate Qin Qiuyue.
Ling Yun asked in a low voice, "Grandpa Qin, you mean that Di Xiaozhen wanted my mother to personally witness the marriage between Ning Tianya and her?"
Qin Changqing said angrily, "What else could she have done? Your mother had just been seriously injured. Even if she wanted to leave at that time, she couldn't! "
Ling Yun was enraged, and the veins on his forehead bulged. "What a vicious woman!"
Qin Changqing continued, "At that time, Qiuyue only had one thought, which was to kill herself. But that vicious woman said that if your mother dared to commit suicide, she would lead the people of the Heaven Sword Sect to annihilate the Qin Family!"
Hearing this, Ling Yun gritted his teeth and was already seething with anger!
"Qiuyue couldn't die, but she couldn't leave either. She could only watch as Ning Tianya and Di Xiaozhen got married. The wedding took a total of nine days from preparation to completion. And your mother had to endure the humiliation for nine days!"
"After nine days, Ning Tianya and Di Xiaozhen got married. Then, Qiuyue left the Ning Family as if she was escaping, leaving the place where she was humiliated."
"Originally, Qiuyue was completely disheartened at that time. Her plan was to go home and see me for the last time. Then, she would find a place where no one was around and kill herself. But when she returned home, she found out that she was already pregnant — which is the current Lingyu."
"Even after returning home, Qiuyue didn't tell anyone about the humiliation and grievances she had experienced."
Tears flowed down Qin Changqing's face, and he choked on his words.
Ling Yun knew that there was more to it. "Then, Grandpa Qin, how did you find out about these things later on?"
Qin Changqing said angrily, "When Qiuyue was in the Ning Family, didn't she suffer a blow from Di Xiaozhen? When the Ning Family arranged for someone to treat Qiuyue, that person already knew that Qiuyue was pregnant. "
"However, this matter ended up reaching Di Xiaozhen's ears."
"That Di Xiaozhen was extremely vicious. Naturally, she wouldn't allow Qiuyue to give birth to the child. So, she brought her people again and attacked the Qin Family aggressively!"
"It was only at that moment that I knew that such a huge incident had happened while Qiuyue was out traveling. She had suffered so much humiliation!"
"After the Qin Family knew what had happened, everyone was naturally enraged. Both parties had a huge battle."
Ling Yun didn't need to think to know that the Qin Family had lost this battle.
"The other party was a cultivation sect. Even though the Qin Family was strong at that time and had many Xiantian Realm experts, no one was a match for Di Xiaozhen. Moreover, she brought so many people from the Heavenly Sword Sect with her."
"We lost. We lost terribly! The Qin Family suffered heavy casualties. It was after that battle that we lost the right to be on par with the Long Family. "
"After Di Xiaozhen won the battle, she made a request to me. Either she destroyed the Qin Family or she killed Qiuyue's child on the spot."
Ling Yun was surprisingly calm at this moment. He asked lightly, "What about Ning Tianya? Did he not do anything? Or was he not there? "
Qin Changqing snorted. "Di Xiaozhen had already made Ning Tianya swear not to see Qiuyue again. Why would she let Ning Tianya follow her?"
"How was the matter resolved in the end?"
At this point, Ling Yun already understood the overall situation. He didn't want to hear more. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself.
"In the end, the Deity Sword Mountain Villa intervened. I don't know what they said to Di Xiaozhen, but she actually changed her mind."
"That vicious woman said that the child in Qiuyue's stomach could be born. However, after the child was born, she had to be sent to the Ning Family to be raised by them …"
Ling Yun laughed coldly. "Hmph, what a vicious woman!"
Ling Yun knew that if Ning Lingyu was handed over to the Qin Family, she would definitely fall into Di Xiaozhen's hands. The consequences would be unimaginable!
"I couldn't watch the Qin Family be destroyed. Therefore, I discussed with Qiuyue that after the child was born, we would return the child to the Ning Family.
"Who knew that Qiuyue would rather die than comply. She directly announced that from that moment on, she was no longer my daughter. She also cut all ties with the Qin Family. She wouldn't give the child to anyone! "
"I know. Qiuyue had no choice. She wanted to cut ties with the Qin Family so that Di Xiaozhen wouldn't make things difficult for the Qin Family."
"When Di Xiaozhen saw this, she wanted to kill Qiuyue on the spot. Who knew that at this time, Ning Tianya would send someone to deliver a letter to Di Xiaozhen."
"When Di Xiaozhen saw the letter, her expression changed. She didn't do anything. Instead, she told the Qin Family that the bloodline of the Ning Family couldn't be left outside. Eighteen years later, when Qiuyue's child grew up, she would send someone to bring Qiuyue's child back to the Ning Family."
"Later on, I found out that the letter said that if Qin Qiuyue died, Ning Tianya would immediately commit suicide. At that time, it seemed like Di Xiaozhen already had his child. "
If Di Xiaozhen had killed Qin Qiuyue, Ning Tianya would have died for sure. Once Ning Tianya died, the child in Di Xiaozhen's womb would be fatherless. Because of this, the Qin Clan and Qin Qiuyue would be spared! Ning Lingyu was able to be born!
At this point, Qin Changqing said dejectedly, "Qiuyue had a hard life. She fell in love with someone she shouldn't have. However, since it's already happened, the Qin Family has to admit it. I just feel sorry for Qiuyue."
"To be honest, I didn't want Qiuyue to have this child. After all, she was only nineteen years old and unmarried. How could she have a child? Furthermore, I hoped that after this matter had died down, I would find someone for Qiuyue to marry … "
"Who knew that Qiuyue was stubborn and would rather break than bend. She swore to me that she would never marry and that she would definitely give birth to the child and raise it! Moreover, in order to not implicate the Qin Family, she left the Qin Family quietly after the people from the Heavenly Sword Sect left. Ever since then, she has never returned! "
"It was that night that the Deity Sword Mountain Villa brought the ten-year-old Dong Xue back to the sect and taught her martial arts …"
To Qin Changqing, that was a nightmarish night. The Qin Family was almost slaughtered and humiliated. Qin Qiuyue cut off all ties with the Qin Family and ran away from home. The ten-year-old Qin Dongxue was taken away by the Deity Sword Mountain Villa.
This was the sequence of events that happened eighteen years ago.
Ling Yun listened for a long time and didn't speak.
He understood, he understood everything.
Why the Qin Family was indebted to the Deity Sword Mountain Villa, why Qin Qiuyue suffered for eighteen years, why Ning Lingyu was seriously ill the moment she was born, why Qin Qiuyue couldn't make any progress in her cultivation, why Qin Dongxue held a grudge against Qin Changqing …
After Qin Changqing told him everything that had happened that year, Ling Yun instantly understood everything.
"Grandpa Qin, then why did my mother leave Qingshui City in a hurry at the beginning of April and go to the Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Ling Yun asked suddenly.
Who knew that Qin Changqing would shake his head. "I don't know the specific reason either. However, to make your mother do this, it can only be related to one person."
Ning Lingyu's father, Ning Tianya!
Qin Changqing said dispassionately, "I think something must have happened to Ning Tianya."
