Chen Haipeng?
Wasn't that the head of the Chen Family? The father that Chen Haipeng was referring to was naturally Chen Jingtian.
Ling Yun's heart skipped a beat when he heard the conversation between the two of them. He immediately dismissed the idea of leaving. Instead, he held his breath and retracted his aura. At the same time, he quietly expanded his divine sense and probed in the direction of the voice.
This was what it meant to wear out iron shoes in fruitless searching, only to find it by chance!
Ling Yun's most important mission in Beijing was to rescue Ling Xiao. Before he found Ling Xiao, the entire Ling Family wouldn't dare to act rashly, and Ling Yun couldn't reveal himself either.
Before finding Ling Xiao's whereabouts, Ling Yun didn't want to stir up a storm in Beijing.
That was why Ling Yun came here tonight only to collect the check. He didn't expect to find something even bigger.
This was a conversation between two generations of the Chen Family. Ling Yun naturally had to listen in.
However, Ling Yun knew that Chen Haipeng was at the pinnacle of Xiantian Realm Level Six, and Chen Jingtian was at least at Xiantian Realm Level Eight. That was why he didn't dare to make a big fuss even if he used his divine sense.
That was because one's sense of hearing was very sensitive at the later stages of the Xiantian Realm. Ling Yun could easily be detected even if he used his divine sense.
Ling Yun wasn't afraid of fighting, and it was easy for him to escape. However, he wouldn't be able to hear the Chen Family's secret, and he would also alert the enemy. That wouldn't be good for him, and it might even affect his overall plan.
Ling Yun switched from external breathing to internal breathing. He was in a state of tortoise breathing, and the divine sense that he released was ethereal. It wasn't invasive at all.
The state of the divine sense was like the air. It was everywhere, but it didn't flow. It didn't change into the wind, and people couldn't feel it.
Two people entered the range of Ling Yun's divine sense. One was an old man about seventy years old, and the other was a middle-aged man about forty years old.
The old man was tall and skinny. He had disheveled hair, a long face, and an inch-long beard. He had a tall aquiline nose and a pair of eyes that were as sharp as an eagle's. This was naturally Chen Jingtian.
Chen Haipeng's appearance was similar to Chen Jingtian's, but he was in his prime. He was slightly fatter than Chen Jingtian, and his voice was low.
At this moment, Chen Jingtian snorted coldly, "Humph! I didn't expect the Ye Family to be so heartless. Did they really think that they didn't leave behind any evidence for what they did in the past?! "
Chen Haipeng's face was filled with shame as he gritted his teeth and said, "Father, I'm incompetent and incompetent, causing the Chen Family to suffer heavy losses. That's why I was neglected …"
Chen Jingtian's eagle eyes stared at Chen Haipeng for a long time before he said in a deep voice, "Letting Jian Gui use The Embrace to deal with the Cao Family was actually a good idea. However, I didn't expect things to not go according to our wishes. Someone came out of nowhere. I don't blame you for this."
Ling Yun snickered in his heart. He thought to himself, Cheng Yaojin, who came out of nowhere, is eavesdropping on your conversation right under your noses.
"But!"
Chen Jingtian then changed the topic. "You sent people to capture the second son of the Ling Family, Ling Yue, and wanted to use him as a hostage to force the Ling Family to submit to our Chen Family. That is a huge mistake!"
"Why don't you think about how bloodthirsty those people from the Ling Family are? It has been eighteen years since they suffered heavy losses. However, who have they submitted to in these eighteen years? "
"Even though the Long Family has been kind to the Ling Family for so many years, the Ling Family is merely grateful. They have never truly submitted to the Long Family!"
"How foolish! How foolish! "
The more Chen Jingtian spoke, the angrier he got. In the end, he slammed the coffee table, leaving a clear palm print on the granite coffee table.
"Now that the Cao Family has yet to be destroyed and the Ling Family has yet to fall, it is our Chen Family that has suffered heavy losses. Now, we actually need the help of the Ye Family! How passive are we? "
Chen Haipeng lowered his head as he listened to Chen Jingtian's scolding. He didn't even dare to breathe loudly as he said softly, "It's my fault!"
"Hmph!"
Chen Jingtian snorted coldly as he asked in a deep voice, "Have you found out the identity and background of that Ling Yun?"
"At this point, his background isn't important anymore. The key is whether he is from the Ling Family or not! We must find out about this! "
Ling Yun's heart skipped a beat as he heard this. He knew that many people were already suspecting his true identity.
As expected, Chen Haipeng said, "Father, it's really hard to explain Ling Yun's background. His rise is too sudden and too violent!"
"However, according to the information that we have gathered from various sources, one thing is certain. This Ling Yun claimed that he came from a mysterious sect called the Immortal Physician Sect."
"As for Ling Yun's identity, everyone in Beijing is guessing that Ling Yun is definitely related to the Ling Family. However, they aren't sure if he is a descendant of the Ling Family because there is no concrete evidence."
Chen Haipeng pondered deeply. "According to the news from Qingshui City, Ling Yun's Heaven and Earth Group opened for business nine days ago. At that time, a total of four special people appeared at the ribbon-cutting ceremony. They were Qin Changqing, Lin Hongjun, Cao Tianlong, and the last one was Ling Xiu from the Ling Family! "
Chen Jingtian sucked in a breath of cold air. "Three out of the eight big families of Huaxia actually went?"
Chen Haipeng frowned and nodded. "That's right. That's why outsiders couldn't see it clearly. Ling Xiu and Cao Tianlong went to the ribbon-cutting ceremony together."
"Because of our relationship with the Chen Family, the Ling Family and the Cao Family are now on the same side. This is very normal …"
The Ling and Cao Families had a blood feud with the Chen Family. The enemy of an enemy is a friend.
"Ling Yun and Cao Shanshan are classmates. Moreover, the two of them are in an open relationship. Therefore, it's reasonable for Ling Yun to save Cao Shanshan and the Cao Family.
"Qin Changqing from the Qin Family appeared because of Qin Qiuyue. After all, Ling Yun is Qin Qiuyue's godson.
"Therefore, Ling Xiu's appearance was too inexplicable and sudden. It caused all the big families in the capital to speculate."
"That's because she might be accompanying Cao Tianlong to announce that the Ling and Cao Families have formed an alliance. She might also be there specifically to rope in Ling Yun. After all, they share the same surname, and Ling Yun has already proven his strength. Of course, there's also the possibility that Ling Xiu is there to acknowledge her family …
"It's not just us. Everyone is guessing what the relationship between Ling Yun and the Ling Family is."
Chen Haipeng lifted his head slowly and looked at his father, waiting for his decision.
Chen Jingtian's pair of eagle eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze flickering. He said in a low voice, "Don't make guesses about such things, and don't hold any illusions. We have to consider the most disadvantageous situation, which is to assume that Ling Yun is the descendant of the Ling Family!"
Ling Yun, who was secretly eavesdropping, closed his eyes immediately. What the f * ck!
The big families in Beijing weren't fools to be able to stand at the peak of Huaxia for so many years.
Other than the fact that they couldn't be sure, they had thought of almost everything they needed to think of.
Chen Haipeng nodded solemnly. "Yes, Father. If Ling Yun isn't the descendant of the Ling Family, we still have a chance to make peace. However, if he really is the descendant of the Ling Family, then …"
"Haipeng, you're wrong. Whether or not Ling Yun is the descendant of the Ling Family, he's still the enemy of our Chen Family! The only difference is the method we use to deal with him. "
While speaking, Chen Jingtian suddenly stood up. His hair and beard fluttered as he angrily said, "Don't you forget how many experts of our Chen Clan died in his hands! None of the people we sent to Qingshui City came back alive!
"Needless to say about those dead bats, there's still the hundreds of ninjas from Japan and the hundreds of ancient martial arts masters from the mansion in the southern suburbs. Other than that, there's also your elder brother Chen Haizhen, your younger brother Chen Haishan, your three most outstanding sons, Jian Hao, Jian Jie, Jian Gui, and that good-for-nothing son of yours, Chen Sen!
"Originally, with your uncle in Huaxia's Summer Organization, our Chen Family had a chance to surpass the Long Family and become the most powerful family in Huaxia. But now, we've been singlehandedly damaged by him. Even if we can tolerate this kind of blood feud, your uncle will not!"
The Ling and Cao Families wanted revenge on the Chen Family. How could the Chen Family not want revenge on Ling Yun now?
"Our Chen Family and that Ling Yun are irreconcilable enemies. He's already on your uncle's kill list!"
"If not for the complicated relationships in Beijing, your uncle wouldn't have tolerated him until today."
"I understand. I was overthinking just now. It's mainly because Ling Yun is too ruthless and unscrupulous. He doesn't leave his enemies alive. I'm afraid he …" Chen Haipeng lowered his head.
Chen Jingtian gritted his teeth and smiled. "What are you afraid of? Afraid that he'll suddenly come to our house? Wipe out the entire Chen Family? "
Chen Haipeng lowered his head for a long time before finally saying, "Yes."
"Haipeng, don't worry. With your uncle around, Ling Yun won't be able to wipe out the Chen Family. If he dares to come, I guarantee that he won't be able to leave!" Chen Jingtian suddenly laughed maniacally.
Chen Haipeng's uncle was naturally Chen Jingxuan from the Huaxia Heaven Group.
"Father, if that Ling Yun is really a descendant of the Ling Family …" Chen Haipeng asked.
"Do you have any clues about the whereabouts of the third son of the Ling Family, Ling Xiao?" Chen Jingtian narrowed his eyes.
Ling Yun pricked up his ears at the mention of Ling Xiao, afraid to miss a word.
Chen Haipeng shook his head. "Father, there aren't any clues yet. However, we can confirm that Ling Xiao is no longer in Beijing."
Chen Jingtian frowned. "Search! Hurry up and send people to search! I came here this time to talk to you about this matter! "
"Right now, the Long Family, the Ye Family, the Sun Family, and all the other families, including the Condor Team, are all looking for Ling Xiao. Whoever finds Ling Xiao first will be able to take the initiative in this battle between the families!
"If Ling Yun is really from the Ling Family, then he must be the bastard son of Ling Xiao and Yin Qingxuan eighteen years ago. Whoever finds Ling Xiao will be able to control Ling Yun!"
