The third update on the 9th! This was the missed update on the 5th. He still owed everyone two updates.
… …
"These are all for the future. There's no rush. Everything has to be done slowly."
After Ling Yun destroyed the Chen and Sun Families, he had already created the momentum for the Ling Family's gradual rise. His entire temperament and mentality had undergone a qualitative change.
He was no longer impatient. Instead, he was much calmer from the bottom of his heart. He looked further ahead, and his vision and heart naturally broadened.
Because now, he had truly established a foothold in Huaxia.
At such a time, stability was naturally the most important thing, not impatience.
Of course, Ling Yun's change was related to his Qi Cultivation Stage 3. He only needed one more step to reach the peak of Qi Cultivation Stage 3 and break through to the middle stage. At that time, he would be able to fly in the air and travel thousands of miles in a day. He would be able to travel anywhere in the world.
However, before that, Ling Yun still had many matters at hand that needed to be dealt with quickly.
His mind was clear now, and his thoughts were unobstructed. Therefore, important matters began to emerge in his mind.
"Xingchen …"
"The Assassins Organization and Sun Chen Alliance buried a huge amount of explosives in the ground to deal with me before the battle. According to Chester, the power of the explosives would be enough to turn the entire valley upside down if they were to explode." Ling Yun said in a low voice.
"I left in a hurry last night and didn't have time to deal with them. Therefore, I'll have to trouble you to deal with this matter."
Hearing Ling Yun mention those explosives, Ye Xingchen also felt a lingering fear. She said in a low voice, "The Sun Chen Alliance is willing to go to any lengths to deal with you! You really have to rejoice in this matter. Fortunately, those explosives used traditional fuses instead of time bombs or remote-controlled explosives. If they were, even if you managed to kill Chen Jingxuan last night, you would still be blown to death. "
Ling Yun's heart was heavy when he mentioned this matter. He nodded and said, "That's true. However, it's impossible for Chen Jingxuan to blow me up. If those explosives really did detonate, I would definitely be heavily injured."
A night of celestial light illuminating the clear water. A dream of the past merging into the present.
After that, Ling Yun had fused the memories from the past eighteen years. He now had a clear understanding of some of the high-tech methods on Earth. Naturally, he knew the power of the few tons of explosives. In his heart, he also understood that there was no need to ignite the fuse to detonate them.
At that thought, Ling Yun said slowly, "Perhaps Chen Jingxuan and the others thought that the Sun-Chen Alliance would definitely win. Those explosives were their last resort, so they arranged for people to ignite them manually. Moreover, if I didn't have divine sense, I definitely wouldn't have been able to detect their ambush."
"In the end, Chen Jingxuan still underestimated me. He doesn't know my trump card."
Ye Xingchen smiled sweetly and said, "You really have too many trump cards. No one can see through you at all."
Of course, Ye Xingchen included herself in these words.
Not to mention Ye Xingchen, even Long Haoran and Ye Qingxin, who had watched the entire process of Ling Yun's battle last night, hadn't been able to see through all of Ling Yun's trump cards.
Ling Yun just smiled.
Ye Xingchen continued, "You don't have to worry about this matter. I'll immediately arrange for people to clean up those explosives."
"Alright."
Ling Yun didn't waste any more time. After nodding, he immediately brought up another matter.
"Right now, the rise of our Ling Family is already inevitable. However, the tripartite balance of power in the capital definitely can't be broken in a short period of time."
Ling Yun mused and first pointed out an objective fact. He then continued, "However, our Ling Family has only just begun to rise. Of course, we have the strength, but compared to the Long Family and the Ye Family, what we lack is a foundation.
"Therefore, for the next period of time, our Ling Family's top priority should be to cultivate inner force and strengthen our own strength so that our family's foundation can quickly become solid."
Ye Xingchen asked with a smile, "Diligently cultivate inner force and strengthen your foundation? Then what do you plan to do next? "
Ling Yun's handsome eyes flashed. He already had a complete plan for this.
"Right now, in our Ling Family, speaking of those whose strength has reached above the Divine Realm, there's me, my grandfather Ling Lie, Auntie Bluebird, and of course …"
Ling Yun suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Xingchen. With a faint smile, he said, "You count as one too.
Other than that, after this incident, my father should be able to reach the Divine Realm very soon. That's a total of five people. "
However, Ling Yun actually had two other candidates in mind, but he didn't mention them in front of Ye Xingchen.
Of these two people, one was Ning Lingyu, and the other was naturally Cao Shanshan, who had already advanced to Qi Cultivation Stage 1.
Both of them were true Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators. Cao Shanshan was slightly weaker, but once she started cultivating combat techniques, her strength would soon be able to hold her own.
"This is the core strength of our Ling Family, but with just the five of us, it's far from enough."
After coming to the capital for the second time, especially after the battle last night, Ling Yun now had a new understanding and judgment of the Long Family and the Ye Family's foundation.
In this battle to the death, the Long Family and the Ye Family almost didn't interfere. This could only mean one thing — they could sit still!
Only with confidence would one be able to sit still!
"However, a Divine Realm expert can't be created in a short period of time. Therefore, to strengthen the Ling Family's foundation, we can only start elsewhere."
Ye Xingchen's beautiful eyes lit up. She said with concentration, "Where do we start? Tell me."
Ling Yun started counting with his fingers. "The first thing we need to do is to establish our Ling Family's intelligence system as soon as possible!"
"There are only thirty-six of our Ling Family's kamikaze warriors left. The chief is Cui Lao, and the commanders are Ling One and Ling Seven.
"I've already raised the realm of these kamikaze warriors, but they're still lacking in terms of tracking, assassination, and intelligence gathering techniques …
"Therefore …"
Ling Yun stopped and looked at Ye Xingchen, his eyes full of "you know what I mean".
Ye Xingchen giggled. "You want the Assassins Organization to train them so that they can hold their own as soon as possible, right?"
Ling Yun spread his hands and said truthfully, "Because you're the professionals."
Ye Xingchen nodded. "After you captured Sikong Tu and his son, my resistance was greatly reduced. Now, I'm indeed organizing the Assassins Organization. Since that's the case, let's take this opportunity to let the Ling Family's kamikaze warriors join us and train them! "
Ling Yun clapped his hands in praise. "Since that's the case, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll give you Cui Lao's contact information. You can discuss the details with him. He'll listen to your arrangements."
Ling Yun had already specifically mentioned the matter of the Ling Family establishing a complete intelligence system to Cui Lao before the battle. Now that the battle was over, he naturally had to start implementing it.
"Other than that, I have seventy-two people in my hands. However, they're all in Qingshui City now, and their realms are still low. After I impart a few more sets of techniques to them and let them catch up, I'll hand them over to you to train."
Ling Yun was, of course, talking about the seventy-two disciples of the Immortal Physician Sect.
"No problem."
Ye Xingchen gave the green light to all of Ling Yun's arrangements.
"However, letting your people train them is only to let them hold their own as soon as possible, not to train them into assassins. This is the general direction, don't mess it up."
Ling Yun reminded her with a smile.
"Pfft!"
Ye Xingchen snickered and rolled his eyes at Ling Yun. "I know, I don't need you to tell me."
"There are still two hidden dangers."
Ling Yun's mind flashed as he said, "One is the Blood Demon Sect, and the other is Sikong Wuqing.
"Right now, even though the Chen Family has been destroyed, the Blood Demon Sect is still a force of the Chen Family. Even though I've already killed the sect leader, Xue Yingkong, there are still many stragglers left. You have to use the forces of the Devil Sect and the Assassins Organization to eradicate them as soon as possible.
"As for Sikong Wuqing, I haven't killed his father, Sikong Tu. You have to track down Sikong Wuqing's whereabouts as soon as possible. He's still a huge hidden danger if he's alive."
Hearing this, Ye Xingchen couldn't help but frown. "The Blood Demon Sect is no longer a concern, but this Sikong Wuqing … Ever since he escaped that day, I've sent people to search for him, but they still haven't found his whereabouts."
Ling Yun laughed. "He's a frightened bird now. He's probably in hiding. He might even have left Huaxia and gone to the East Ocean. However, we have to be on our guard."
As he spoke, Ling Yun took out the Blood Element Bead with a thought.
"This is the Chen Family's inheritance, the Blood Element Pearl. Last night, Chen Jingxuan relied on it to almost turn the tables on him.
"However, after last night, I've discovered quite a few miraculous uses of this pearl. It looks like I have to study it in detail."
Ling Yun raised his head and looked at Ye Xingchen. "Xingchen, do you know what the Sun Family's inheritance is? Have you heard of it? "
Ye Xingchen immediately shook his head. "No."
"Ling Yun, it's different from the cultivation sects. Not every Huaxia family has an inheritance. Moreover, even if the Sun Family has an inheritance, it definitely hasn't been activated. Otherwise, they wouldn't have so many Xiantian experts but none of them have reached the Divine Realm.
"If the Sun Family really has an inheritance, it must be in the hands of the most outstanding descendant of the Sun Family. It's very likely that it's Sun Tianluo's son, Sun Jue."
Ye Xingchen voiced out his judgment.
Ling Yun laughed. "That's right. I think so too. Therefore, what we need to do next is to find the whereabouts of the Sun Family's descendants. Even if we don't kill them, we must cripple their martial arts, lest they secretly attack our Ling Family. "
Ye Xingchen laughed. "There's no need to find out. A few of the Sun Family's outstanding descendants have taken a huge sum of money to the East Sea, then turned around and sought refuge with the Baili Family."
Ling Yun's eyes flashed. "Oh? They've all gone to the East Sea Itinerant Cultivator Alliance? "
Ye Xingchen confirmed. "That's right. Just like those families that went overseas to seek refuge a hundred years ago."
"Ling Yun, speaking of the Baili Family, I have to remind you that the Baili Family suffered a great loss at your hands, but since you let them go, they'll definitely take revenge. You have to be careful of the East Sea Itinerant Cultivator Alliance in the future."
"It's fine. I can't be bothered with them since they're in the East Sea, but if anyone dares to come to Huaxia to cause trouble for me, I'll just kill them all."
Ling Yun laughed coldly. (To be continued.)
