After the four luxury cars left the city in the east, they soon got on the round-the-city highway, and then they went south along the round-the-city highway. After rushing all the way to the Shanghai-Kunming Highway, they headed straight for Yingtan City in the east, as fast as lightning.
Ye Xingchen took the lead in a black sports car with Qin Dongxue.
Wang Chongxiao and the five members of the Blood Clan followed closely behind in a seven-seater Mercedes-Benz with the two prisoners, Spiritual Master Lie Ri and Di Yutang.
Then, Miao Xiaomiao drove her luxurious sports car with Xiao Meimei.
The remaining five people were naturally in Ling Yun's MPV.
"Aunt Qing, what's wrong?"
Ling Yun noticed that ever since Qing Niao saw Miao Xiao Miao for the first time yesterday evening, her expression had been a little off. Her gaze kept drifting over to Ling Yun's body. Today, this state was even more obvious. She was obviously uneasy.
Ling Yun already knew that twenty years ago, Qing Niao was the most talented Gu Lady in the Eighteen Stockaded Villages of Miaojiang. Her attainments in the art of Gu, poison, and medicine had already reached the pinnacle at that time. She had lost her memory and was muddle-headed for eighteen years. When she suddenly saw Miao Xiao Miao who walked out of the Ten Thousand Mountains of Miaojiang, she would definitely be a little emotional.
Actually, Ling Yun didn't intend to bring Qing Niao along on this trip. After all, to Ling Yun, Qing Niao was his elder. Now that he was in the Ling Family, there was no need for Qing Niao to come out and fight. As for Qing Niao, Ling Yun hoped that she would be like a part of his family. From now on, she would stay in the Ling Family, plant flowers, cultivate, and enjoy the rest of her life.
However, Qing Niao hadn't left the Ling Family's ancestral home. She had been staying there for more than a month.
Qing Niao hadn't seen Ye Xingchen since the night Ling Yun saved his father. She missed her dearly because Ye Xingchen was the disciple of her sister, Yin Qingxuan. Qing Niao also wanted to ask Ye Xingchen about Yin Qingxuan's situation in the past eighteen years.
However, in the capital, Qing Niao and Ye Xingchen couldn't meet for a long talk even though they occasionally contacted each other to prevent the Ling Family from repeating the same mistake. Therefore, Qing Niao volunteered to come along after learning that Ling Yun was going to attend the Devil Subduing Conference with Ye Xingchen so that she could spend some time with him.
Secondly, Qing Niao treated Ling Yun like her own son. As an expert who was about to break through to the second level of the Divine Power Realm, she couldn't bear to stay at home and let Ling Yun go against the entire martial world. This had nothing to do with strength but love.
The last reason was naturally because this Devil Subduing Conference was targeted at Ye Xingchen and Ling Yun. In other words, it was targeted at Yin Qingxuan and Ling Xiao. As one of the people who had personally experienced that case, her hatred for the martial arts sects that had forced Yin Qingxuan back then could be said to be even more intense than Ye Xingchen's!
Not only had Bluebird regained her memory and appearance, but she had also become a dozen years younger. Her strength had also reached the pinnacle of the first level of the divine power realm. She had to avenge her past grudge!
It was because of these three reasons that Qing Niao insisted on accompanying Ling Yun to attend the Devil Subduing Conference.
She did not expect that when she arrived here, before the Demon Subduing Meet even started and before she fought a single battle, she would meet the Miaojiang Gu Lady again. Although it was the first time they met, they were like old friends.
It felt like a lifetime had passed!
"That child looks a lot like Aunt Qing."
Qing Niao's gaze was fixed on Miao Xiao Miao, who was far away. She was reminiscing about the past. Hearing Ling Yun's question, she smiled gently and said, "I like her very much."
"Aunt Qing, when I was fifteen or sixteen years old, I had already mastered the art of venomous poison. I was in the prime of my youth. Because of the battle of witchcraft, I secretly left the Hundred Thousand Mountains and went to the territory of Xiangxi alone to fight with people. In the end, I was schemed against by those people from Xiangxi. In the end, I was outnumbered and almost died. Luckily, I was saved by my sister. After that, I followed my sister to the headquarters of the Devil's Sect …"
This was the first time Qing Niao told Ling Yun about her background. "At that time, Big Sister was like a goddess in my eyes. She treated me better than her own sister. As long as I was willing to learn, Big Sister would teach me. In those two years, my cultivation progressed at lightning speed, and I reached the late Xiantian Realm very quickly."
The elder sister that Qing Niao was referring to was naturally Yin Qingxuan. She continued, "Elder sister said that I'm extremely talented, and I'm the best among her sisters. Even Qingluan and Qingfeng aren't as good as me …"
Speaking of happiness, Qing Niao couldn't help but smile, "I stayed with my sister and the others all day long, cultivating, playing, and traveling the martial world. I was extremely happy, and I couldn't bear to leave her. So, from the day I met my sister, I never returned to the Miao village."
"But it was only for those two to three years. In the last year, Big Sister met your father, and then that case happened. After Big Sister and I returned to the headquarters of the Devil Sect, she gave birth to you not long after. She was really happy at that time …"
"But less than half a month after Big Sister gave birth to you, the twelve elders of the Devil Sect tricked Big Sister in the name of a sacrificial ceremony. When she returned from the sacrificial ceremony, she found out that your Yang Heel Meridian had been destroyed. Big Sister was naturally furious, but she knew that she couldn't defeat the twelve elders and the eight guardians of the Devil Sect by herself. That was why she could only suppress her grief and secretly discuss with us sisters. In the end, we decided that I would bring you out of the forbidden area of the Devil Sect.
"Big Sister's intelligence and strategy were unparalleled. We originally planned it carefully, so the process of me bringing you out of the forbidden area of the Devil Sect was very smooth. Who knew that not long after I brought you out of the Devil Sect, we would be hunted down by Sikong Tu …
"The plan we came up with was for me to bring you to Shiwan Mountain, back to our Miaojiang village, and raise you up. That was why I couldn't escape. Who knew that Sikong Tu would still catch up to me when we reached Qingshui territory …"
At this point, Green Bird stopped because Ling Yun already knew the rest of the story.
Then, she turned her head and looked at Miao Xiao Miao, who was driving. She smiled and said, "If I could successfully bring you back to Miao Jiang eighteen years ago, the two of you would have been childhood friends and grown up together …"
Ling Yun was stunned. "Aunt Qing, do you know Miao Xiao Miao's grandmother, Miao Fenghuang?"
"Of course I do."
Qing Niao smiled sweetly. "Don't look at the Hundred Thousand Mountains of Miaojiang. There aren't many Gu Ladies who are successful in cultivating the Art of Gu. Our Miaojiang's Art of Gu has been passed down from generation to generation, so no matter which village, everyone knows who is cultivating the Art of Gu and whose cultivation is good or bad. Sometimes, there will be competitions … to choose the Sacred Lady of Miaojiang."
"After the age of ten, Aunt Qing's Gu Techniques became famous in the entire Miao Jiang. Miao Fenghuang was the Miao Holy Lady of the previous generation. How could we not know each other?
"Not only does she know me, but she also treats me very well. She said that I would be the new Miao Holy Lady when I was eighteen. Unfortunately, I ran away from Miao Jiang before I was sixteen and haven't returned since … I don't know what Aunt Miao would think …"
Ling Yun thought to himself. At the end of the day, they were still family. He immediately asked, "Do you know about the matter between Miao Fenghuang and Miracle Doctor Xue?"
"I've only heard about it …" Green Bird nodded. "However, the matter with Aunt Miao is a taboo in the entire Miao Village. Everyone doesn't talk about it, so that's how it is …"
Ling Yun finally understood everything. Miao Fenghuang was the Miao Holy Lady, and Green Bird originally had hopes of succeeding her. However, she left the Miao Village. Even though the two of them had a good relationship, they weren't from the same village.
Based on Miao Fenghuang's generation, Miao Xiao Miao should be the third generation Miao Holy Lady that she had deliberately cultivated.
No wonder Green Bird was so unsettled after seeing Miao Xiao Miao.
"Aunt Qing is from the Black Miao."
Green Bird said to Ling Yun again and then didn't say anything else.
"Aunt Qing, what's the use of just thinking about it? You can just tell Miao Xiao Miao. I think she should be able to tell that you have Gu skills, right?"
Green Bird nodded. "That's right. Between Gu Ladies, unless there's a huge difference in their realms and they can't hide it from each other, everyone would be able to tell."
She smiled in relief. "This child, Miao Xiao Miao's Gu skills have already surpassed the time I left Miao Village."
Ling Yun chuckled and said, "Aunt Qing, that's easy. When we arrive at Yingtan City, I'll let her stay with you. You can explain things to her then. You can also ask about the situation in your stronghold at the same time."
"That's good too."
Green Bird nodded lightly.
After more than an hour, Ling Yun and the rest finally arrived at Ying Tan City.
It was already the morning of the fourteenth of August. After entering Ying Tan City, Ling Yun could clearly feel that the number of Ancient Martial Arts experts around him had gradually increased. They were in groups of three to five and were dressed in all sorts of clothes. They blended into the crowd and seemed to be in a hurry.
There were many Xiantian Realm experts, but Ling Yun had yet to find any traces of Divine Realm experts.
Ling Yun and the rest naturally wouldn't care about these people now. They directly drove past them until they reached a remote and deserted place. Then, they all got out of the car and gathered together again.
"According to the original plan, we'll split into three groups."
The enemies had already begun to appear, so Ling Yun naturally began to make arrangements. Such a large group of people with varying realms of cultivation was too eye-catching.
"Xing Chen, Aunt Qing, Xiao Meimei, Miao Xiao Miao, the four of you will go together. Xing Chen will lead and act according to the situation.
"Edward, the five of you, take the two dead men and stay in Ying Tan City. Find a place with no one around for the time being. Without my orders, no one is to act on their own, let alone go into the territory of Mount Longhu.
"The rest of you, follow me. We'll go straight to Mount Longhu!"
This was originally discussed in advance, so no one had any objections. After Ling Yun finished speaking, the three groups began to move.
Before returning to the car, Ling Yun sent a telepathic message to Xiao Meimei and Miao Xiao Miao. "The two of you must ensure that your communicators are switched on at all times. No matter who meets Zhuang Meifeng or the people from the Tranquil Sect, contact the other party immediately!"
After that, Ling Yun brought Bai Xianer, Qin Dongxue, Tie Xiaohu, Mo Wudao, and Wang Chongxiao straight to Mount Longhu!
