The Ling Family was strong!
The Great Elder of the Heavenly Team, Zhou Wenyi, could see this. Ling Yun naturally knew this as well. This was because he had relied on his own strength to create this situation.
Ling Lie was stunned when he heard this. Not long after, he broke into laughter and said, "Yun Er, now that you mention it, it seems to be the case! Unknowingly, the overall strength of the Ling Family has long surpassed that of twenty years ago! "
Of course, Ling Lie had the right to say this. After all, he was the Old Master of the Ling Family. He had witnessed the fall of the Ling Family from the pinnacle of Huaxia to the weakest of the Eight Great Families.
Forty years ago, Ling Lie was still young, and his realm wasn't high enough. Therefore, he didn't know much about the strength of the Ling Family, which was at the pinnacle of Huaxia. He only knew that the Ling Family was one of the three strongest families.
This was the same logic as asking Ling Xue and Ling Li of the Ling Family how strong the Ling Family was now. They wouldn't be able to tell.
However, Ling Lie knew very well how strong the Ling Family was before that tragedy happened twenty years ago. That was because he had already been the Old Master of the Ling Family for more than ten years and had already reached the middle stage of the Xiantian Realm.
When the masters of the Ling Family went to Kunlun, they would naturally leave one or two people to look after the house. They were Ling Lie's uncles and brothers.
However, the two elders of the Ling Family who stayed behind were only half a step into the Xiantian Realm. Neither of them had broken through to the Divine Realm because they were left behind to look after the house.
At that time, no one would have thought that the masters of the Ling Family would never return after they went to Kunlun.
Ling Lie's brothers were only in the middle stage of the Xiantian Realm twenty years ago. They were stronger than Ling Lie and Ling Xiao back then, but not by much. That was because the Ling Family's inheritance had already been broken, and it was extremely difficult for them to cultivate.
However, in the tragic battle 18 years ago, the people who died in the battle of the Ling Family were the ones with the highest realms and combat strength.
After that battle, only Ling Lie's bloodline was left in the Ling Family.
With Ling Yun's help, Ling Lie had already stepped into the Divine Power Realm. However, he continued to cultivate day and night. He spent all his time absorbing the Black Yellow Immortal Spiritual Energy in his body and cultivating the top-notch techniques that Ling Yun had given him.
Ling Lie was engrossed in cultivation. Coupled with his personality, he had neglected the bigger picture and the bigger picture when he was in the picture.
As it turned out, the Ling Family's current strength had long surpassed that of 20 years ago!
Furthermore, at that time, the Ling Family's inheritance had yet to be activated, and the Ling Family was barely holding on. Now, however, the Ling Family was flourishing with each passing day. It could even be said that the Ling Family was changing with each passing day, growing stronger with each passing day!
Because everyone in the Ling Family, from top to bottom, was growing rapidly!
It was indeed unstoppable!
Ling Yun poured tea for Ling Lie. At the same time, he pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Grandpa, how do we compare to forty years ago?"
No one wanted to know the shocking secret from forty years ago more than Ling Yun. It was too important to him.
"Far from it."
Ling Lie didn't hesitate at all. His eyes were filled with pride as he said, "Forty years ago, any one of my grandfathers and uncles could easily beat someone like Zhou Wenyi until he didn't know which way was north."
"…"
Ling Yun was speechless and shocked. How strong was the Ling Family then?
Was that still a secular family? That's a cultivation clan, it's just that they stay in the secular world, right?
"Bang!"
After Ling Lie finished speaking, he suddenly slammed the teacup in his hand on the table and glared at Ling Yun. "You little brat, how dare you trick Grandpa!"
Ling Yun chuckled.
Ling Lie looked at Ling Yun for a long time before sighing and saying, "Yun Er, there are too many things that were involved in that incident forty years ago. Every single one of them is an earth-shattering secret. Since you asked about what happened forty years ago, I believe that old man Qin Changqing must have told you too much about it, right?"
Ling Yun nodded his head to show that he was right.
Ling Lie sighed. "The resentment of the Qin Family isn't any lesser than ours."
Then, his expression suddenly turned serious. "Yun Er, your realm is still a little low now. When you enter the middle stage of Qi Cultivation, Grandpa will tell you everything I know. At that time, no matter what decision you make, Grandpa will support it."
Ling Yun nodded his head cheerfully and only said "okay."
Ling Lie smiled. "In other words, Zhou Wenyi has already understood the Ling Family's strength and seen the current situation of the Ling Family. That's why he decided to bind his interests with the Ling Family?"
"That's right."
Ling Yun nodded. "If I'm not wrong, Zhou Wenyi's realm should be above Divine Power Realm Level Six, but definitely not Divine Power Realm Level Seven."
"In terms of our cultivation system, he's at the peak of the middle stage of Qi Cultivation."
"I think that since the Great Elder of the Huaxia Heavenly Group is like that, as long as there aren't any old antiques, the cultivation of the top figures of the Long Family and the Ye Family should be about the same. The only difference is the number of people."
Ling Yun now had a very clear understanding of the power distribution in the capital of Huaxia. The actual situation wasn't far from what he guessed.
Divine Power Realm Level Six was equivalent to Qi Cultivation Level Six. Even though the name of the realm was different, at least their combat strength was similar.
"I'm now in the late stage of Qi Cultivation Level Three. In about half a month, I'll be able to enter the peak of Qi Cultivation Level Three. Then, as long as I cultivate normally, I'll be able to enter the middle stage of Qi Cultivation Level in two months."
Ling Yun didn't hide his cultivation from his family now. He was being honest with Ling Lie.
Ling Lie couldn't hide his excitement. "Then … what if we fight?"
Ling Yun smiled. "Grandpa, I was already able to kill Chen Jingxuan when he was possessed when I reached Qi Disciple Level 3. I'm guessing that his combat power should be at the peak of Divine-Power Level 4 for a short period of time."
"Yun Er, does that mean that you could kill someone at the peak of Divine Power Realm Level Four when you were in the early stage of Qi Cultivation Level Three?"
"I spent a lot of effort and basically used all my trump cards," Ling Yun told the truth.
However, he was now in the late stage of Qi Cultivation Level Three. After absorbing the Dragon Emperor Energy in the Forbidden Palace, Ling Yun's body became stronger. His combat strength naturally far exceeded the early stage of Qi Cultivation Level Three.
Ling Yun smiled proudly. "As long as I enter the middle stage of Qi Cultivation Level, no one from the Long Family, Ye Family, Heaven Group, or Dragon Group will be able to do anything to me!"
This was Ling Yun's ability to be awesome!
Cultivation was like rowing a boat against the current. Others would cultivate slower and slower, but Ling Yun cultivated faster and faster. During the Qi Cultivation Level, even though the spiritual energy on Earth was insufficient, he could ensure that he would advance at a constant speed or even accelerate!
That was because he knew how!
He didn't need to explore or comprehend at all. As long as he followed the prescribed order and solidified his foundation at every step, all that was left was to collect a large amount of cultivation resources. In the end, it was spiritual energy.
"Good! Very good! "
Ling Lie suddenly chuckled. "But Yun Er, you haven't used the Dragon Elephant Divine Force yet, right?"
Ling Yun knew that Ling Lie wanted to find out more about him this time, so he smiled. "Grandpa, the Dragon Elephant Divine Force can't be used easily unless it's a life-and-death situation! That's because it's a combat strength that overdrafts one's vitality. Even though there aren't any side effects, it will definitely affect cultivation. "
"Moreover, I already felt that someone was watching the battle from the sky, so I definitely held back."
Dragon Elephant Divine Force?
That was one of Ling Yun's biggest trump cards. It was prepared for experts like Long Haoran, Ye Qingfeng, and Zhou Wenyi. It was meant to be used in a life-and-death situation. Of course, he wouldn't use it carelessly.
Moreover, this was also the source of Ling Yun's confidence in challenging Long Haoran. If the Ling Family and Long Family were really at odds with each other, Ling Yun would only use it if Long Haoran personally took action.
Ling Lie smiled without saying a word. He knew that Ling Yun wouldn't do things he wasn't confident in. If not for the safety of the entire Ling Family, Ling Yun would have turned the Long Family and the Ye Family upside down and left.
"Grandpa, actually, even though you and my father are at the pinnacle of Divine Power Level One, you can go head to head with an expert at the pinnacle of Divine Power Level Three if you use your full strength."
Because of Ling Yun's heaven-defying techniques, anyone in the Ling Family, including Cui Lao, could kill someone at a higher level than them.
Ling Yun's eyes flashed. "If you use the Dragon Elephant Divine Force, you can instantly kill a Divine Power Level Three expert and challenge someone at the pinnacle of Divine Power Level Four!
"Therefore, even though our Ling Family has just risen through a life-and-death battle and doesn't seem to have any foundation, our techniques and the Dragon Elephant Divine Force are the foundation of our Ling Family!
"This is the reason why the Long Family and Ye Family are unwilling to go head to head with us despite our rapid growth!
"I think that Long Haoran and Ye Qingfeng must have realized this. That's why they tacitly agreed to the rise of our Ling Family. No matter which of them makes a move against our Ling Family, it will end in a lose-lose situation. When the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. That's why there's a balanced situation in Beijing. "
Ling Yun spoke with fervor and assurance. His expression and words were filled with absolute confidence.
"Hahahaha …"
Ling Lie couldn't help but laugh after listening to Ling Yun's analysis. "You brat, you've already said everything. What else can Grandpa say?"
Ling Yun shook his head solemnly. "However, the Long Family has already begun to make a move against our Ling Family."
"Oh!"
Ling Lie was shocked. "The Long Family made a move against our Ling Family first? How … how is that possible! "
Ling Yun chuckled. "Hehe, we might have accidentally provoked them yesterday. Long Haoran definitely couldn't sit still. Otherwise, Zhou Wenyi from the Heavenly Team wouldn't have come today."
Ling Lie stood up suddenly and said angrily, "Yun Er, are you saying that Zhou Wenyi came today because he was instructed by the Long Family?"
Ling Yun stood up and shook his head. "The Long Family definitely can't directly instruct Zhou Wenyi, but they definitely gave the Heavenly Team pressure.
Otherwise, the Heavenly Team wouldn't have waited seven days after the life-and-death battle. "
Ling Lie said in a low voice, "Yun Er, are you saying that the Long Family wants to start an all-out war with our Ling Family?"
Ling Yun smiled faintly and said, "Long Haoran probably won't start an all-out war. However, some small-scale battles are unavoidable in the future!"
Ling Lie was stunned. He asked, "Then … then how did you provoke the Long Family?"
Ling Yun stood up and shrugged helplessly. "It was really unintentional. It's actually nothing much. I just went to the Forbidden City yesterday and accidentally obtained some Dragon Energy."
