"Come to think of it, it was my fault back then!
"Back then, we shouldn't have let Qiu Yue go out to travel. After Qiu Yue got into trouble and everything was settled, we shouldn't have let her run away from home. Otherwise, Lingyu could have grown up in our Qin Family. At least Qiu Yue and Lingyu wouldn't have to suffer so much …"
The old man seemed to have used up all his emotions when he recounted the pain of the Qin Family. Even though his voice was calm, he couldn't hide the fact that he was choking with emotions.
Obviously, Qin Changqing had hardened his heart to protect the Qin Family. That was why he didn't have any contact with Qin Qiuyue all these years.
It was precisely because of this that Qin Dongxue's heart turned cold towards her father. There was some animosity between the father and daughter.
"Grandpa Qin, you don't have to blame yourself. You're not at fault!"
"My mother isn't at fault either!"
Ling Yun sat down quietly. His gaze was as sharp as a knife, and his tone was as cold as ice. "The ones at fault are the Sky Mountain Sky Sword Sect, the Ning Family, and that vicious Di Xiaozhen!"
It was clearly the other party's fault. Why should he take all the blame? This time, Ling Yun included the Ning Family as well.
From Ling Yun's point of view, he wasn't strong enough!
"Grandpa Qin, don't worry. Now that I know about this, I will definitely avenge my mother! I will make the Sky Sword Sect and that Di Xiaozhen pay a heavy price! "
"I will definitely rescue my mother from the Sky Sword Sect as soon as possible!"
The Qin Family's strength was nothing in the eyes of the Sky Sword Sect. But now, with Ling Yun?
The promise of eighteen years? Send Ning Lingyu back to the Ning Family? To be Di Xiaozhen's maid? That was simply a pipe dream!
Ling Yun couldn't help but laugh coldly.
Qin Changqing kept nodding his head, but he didn't say a word. After stabilizing his emotions, he nodded and said, "Ling Yun, I chose to tell you everything because I believe that you have the ability to rescue your mother!
However, I have another important matter to attend to in Qingshui City this time. "
Ling Yun said directly, "Grandpa Qin, please speak."
Qin Changqing said in a low voice, "This child, Lingyu, has never known that she has a grandfather like me since she was born. Even until today, she still doesn't know about the Qin Family. Therefore, this time, I want to bring Lingyu back to the Qin Family and let her stay for a period of time. She can also get to know the people of the Qin Family."
Ling Yun frowned. "Grandpa Qin, you're Lingyu's grandfather. This request is reasonable, but … with the 18-year agreement between the Ning Family and the Qin Family, what if Di Xiaozhen comes looking for us again?"
Ling Yun was, of course, worried about Lingyu's safety. He was afraid that if something were to happen to Lingyu, he would be in deep trouble.
Qin Changqing shook his head slightly and said, "Oh, you don't have to worry about that. Don't forget that Qiu Yue is still in the Heavenly Sword Sect. I reckon that even if Di Xiaozhen still remembers the agreement, she won't be able to come over now. Lingyu will be safe during this period of time."
Ling Yun thought about it seriously. Even if Di Xiaozhen really went crazy and wanted to bring Lingyu back to the Ning Family, he would have to wait until the matter with the Heavenly Sword Sect was resolved.
By that time, Ling Yun guessed that he would have already gone to the Heavenly Sword Sect and annihilated the entire sect!
Yes, that's right, directly annihilating the entire sect. After humiliating Qin Qiu Yue to such an extent, Ling Yun would avenge his mother even after eighty years!
"Alright, I'll be leaving for Beijing soon. I won't be able to take care of Lingyu during this period of time. Why don't you bring Lingyu back to the Qin Family to stay for a period of time?"
Ling Yun agreed to Qin Changqing's suggestion and asked, "But about my aunt? Is she still unwilling to see you? "
Qin Changqing laughed. "Oh, you mean Dongxue? There's a grudge between us, but it's not that deep. As for why she's avoiding me this time, it's because of something else."
After a pause, Qin Changqing continued, "I chose a marriage for your aunt and wanted to bring her back to meet the other party. Who knew that she would hide before I even reached Qingshui …"
"Dongxue is twenty-eight years old this year, I'm afraid that she …"
What was Qin Changqing afraid of? Naturally, he was afraid that Dongxue would follow in her sister's footsteps. If it happened again, the Qin Family wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.
Ling Yun was speechless.
At this time, he heard Qin Changqing continue, "Forget it, since she's unwilling to have such a marriage, then forget it. A melon that's forcefully picked won't be sweet. Sigh … these two sisters, each more troublesome than the other …"
Ling Yun heaved a sigh of relief in his heart … But, why did he heave a sigh of relief?
"Ling Yun, I know you're a descendant of the Ling Family, and I also know that you're a loyal child. I heard that your father went missing, and this is a huge matter … You have to find him first, or your Ling Family won't dare to touch him."
"However, Grandpa Qin still has to remind you to be careful of three forces when you go to Beijing this time."
"The Devil Sect, the Long Family, and the Ye Family."
"If I'm not wrong, the incident that happened to your Ling Family wasn't just because of your father and mother. Someone was secretly adding fuel to the fire. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been a situation where the righteous and evil sects worked together to attack your Ling Family!"
"Back in the day, the Long, Ling, and Qin Families of Huaxia were three great secular families that stood on equal footing. Who would have thought that your Ling Family would meet with misfortune first, and then my Qin Family would meet with misfortune afterwards, suffering the calamity of annihilation one after the other … Thinking about it, it really makes one sigh …"
At this point, Qin Changqing let out a long sigh.
"Grandpa Qin, I know that the Long Family has been standing in Huaxia for thousands of years, so they must have a deep foundation. Since the Ling Family and the Qin Family can stand on equal footing with the Long Family, why …"
Why were they so weak?
Not to mention the Ling Family, at least the Qin Family was the tomb keeper of Emperor Qin's mausoleum. They had more than two thousand years of history. How could they not even defeat the Heavenly Sword Sect?
Qin Changqing smiled bitterly. "Child, it was more than forty years ago … At that time, your grandfather and I were still very young. The Ling Family and the Qin Family could be said to have countless masters. There were many masters above Xiantian Realm Level Nine. However, all the masters from the Ling Family went to Kunlun, while all the masters from the Qin Family went to the imperial mausoleum …"
At this point, Qin Changqing seemed to realize that he said something wrong and stopped talking.
Of course, Ling Yun wouldn't let go of such an important secret. He immediately asked, "Grandpa Qin, then what?"
Qin Changqing didn't seem to want to talk about this. "None of them came back …"
"None of them came back?" Ling Yun was shocked.
"Yes." Qin Changqing nodded.
"Then, what about the Long Family?"
Qin Changqing smiled. "In those twenty years, the Long Family seemed to be looking for something. It should have something to do with dragons. I heard that they sent many masters to Penglai."
"Penglai!"
Ling Yun's memory was correct. The Green Dragon Out at Sea was said to have been found in Penglai.
More than forty years ago, the Ling Family went to Kunlun, the Qin Family went to the imperial mausoleum, and the Long Family went to Penglai …
Qin Changqing nodded. "In the process of searching, the Long Family also lost many people. As for whether or not they found anything, outsiders don't know."
Then, he raised his head and looked at Ling Yun seriously. "Ling Yun, you don't have to ask me why. This is a shocking secret of Huaxia. Even if you ask your grandfather, I don't think he will tell you. It's true that you are a cultivator, but your current strength is not enough."
Seeing that the old man didn't want to say more, Ling Yun smiled. "Alright, since Grandpa Qin is so serious, I won't ask anymore."
Ling Yun thought to himself, Even if you don't tell me, can't I investigate secretly? Once I'm done with my business, can't I just go to these places one by one?
With that, Ling Yun stood up and started taking things out of his spatial ring.
Two stalks of thousand-year-old ginseng, two stalks of thousand-year-old knotweed, a large bottle of dragon saliva, three Dragon Tiger Pills, and other treasures …
"Grandpa Qin, Ling Yun is unable to repay my mother for raising me. This is my filial gift to you."
Ling Yun said seriously to Qin Changqing's dumbfounded expression.
"No wonder your cultivation speed is so terrifying … You …"
There were simply too many natural treasures!
Qin Changqing regained his senses after a long time. Suppressing his excitement, he said, "But since you are filial to me, I will accept them all."
These were all supreme treasures for cultivation and were of great help to the strength of the entire Qin Family. Qin Changqing wouldn't reject them no matter what.
Then, his expression turned serious. "This should be the dragon saliva, right? Ling Yun, this is something that the Long Family is determined to get. You will have to deal with the Long Family on this trip to Beijing. You must be careful! "
Ling Yun smiled. "Thank you for the reminder, Grandpa Qin. I know what to do."
"When do you plan to return to the Qin Family, Grandpa Qin?"
Qin Changqing smiled. "I have already settled a few important matters in Qingshui City. I plan to leave with Lingyu this afternoon."
Then, he explained, "I asked Lingyu to go out so that she won't hear some things and be sad. On the other hand, I want her to make some preparations before she leaves."
"Hehe, but I think this child is probably going to look for your aunt."
Ling Yun naturally understood this point. "Alright then, I will wait for Lingyu to come back. Then, I will send you to the airport."
Ning Lingyu returned to Qingshui Wharf Mansion Number Nine at noon. After the three of them had lunch, Ling Yun drove them to Qingshui City's airport.
"Lingyu, during this trip to the Qin Family, don't delay your cultivation. If you need anything during your cultivation, ask Grandpa Qin for it."
"At your current level, increasing your realm isn't that important. The most important thing is to practice your combat skills. Without actual combat, it's useless no matter how high your realm is."
…
Before Qin Changqing and Ning Lingyu boarded the plane, Ling Yun reminded Ning Lingyu repeatedly.
Even though she was going home with her grandfather, it was the first time Ning Lingyu left Qingshui City. She held back her tears and said to Ling Yun, "Big Brother, when you go to Beijing, you must be careful. Don't forget to contact me at any time."
As she spoke, Ning Lingyu waved the exquisite communication device in her hand.
Ling Yun smiled and caressed Ning Lingyu's hair. "Sister, don't worry."
