Ning Lingyu gave perfect answers to all of Ling Yun's questions, especially during the entire process. She did not hesitate at all, nor did she think. She answered every question that was asked. Her answers were flawless and her explanations were all very reasonable!
At least, they sounded very reasonable.
Ling Yun couldn't ask any more questions at this point. That would make it seem like he didn't trust his sister anymore.
Lingyu's IQ was way too high. Ling Yun knew this better than anyone else. Therefore, he had prepared all the questions he had asked with appropriate reasons. Moreover, he acted as if nothing had happened. While asking the questions that he wanted to know, he inadvertently led them to the most important question.
However, even though Ling Yun had done so much, Ning Lingyu was still able to sense it. Otherwise, she wouldn't have said something like "Did I scare you guys?"
That was why Ling Yun handed the phone to Qin Dongxue after listening to Ning Lingyu's explanation.
Qin Dongxue took the phone and didn't hide her anger at all. "Lingyu, how could you make such a joke with Aunty?"
"Aunty, I had just finished watching a movie. I thought it was interesting, so I imitated it … I thought you would reply immediately after listening to it, but you didn't …"
"Your brother was helping us break through. How could I have the time to care about this?"
Qin Dongxue said in a low voice. "Moreover, even if you want to joke with me, you should choose the right time. Your brother was going to participate in the Demon Subduing Conference that night, and he was facing all the masters of the Pugilistic World. How could you say that you weren't worried?"
Qin Dongxue couldn't be in a good mood now that she had confirmed that Ning Lingyu was fine. She had been worried for two whole days and suffered Ling Yun's anger for no reason. She was really angry now.
"Aunty, are you really angry? I was wrong. "
Ning Lingyu could tell that Qin Dongxue was really angry. She quickly admitted her mistake and lowered her voice. "I said that because my brother told me not to worry before he left. He told me not to worry, that those martial arts sects are just ants in his eyes. He can crush them with just a lift of his foot … Those were his exact words …"
Qin Dongxue couldn't help but turn her head and look at Ling Yun inquisitively.
Ling Yun nodded with a smile. Those were indeed the exact words he had said to Lingyu when he bade her farewell.
Qin Dongxue glared at Ling Yun and said, "You shouldn't have used that tone to say that!"
"Yes, Aunty, I know I was wrong. I won't do it again."
Ning Lingyu admitted her mistake, fearing that Qin Dongxue would really flip out.
"It's good that you know your mistake!"
Qin Dongxue asked in a low voice, "But why aren't you concerned about the Devil Subduing Conference at all? You didn't even ask about it? You even put your phone in your spatial ring all day long, making it impossible for us to contact you. "
Unlike Ling Yun, Qin Dongxue didn't have such deep thoughts. She didn't think too much when she was angry. She said whatever came to her mind.
Ling Yun listened attentively. He didn't ask about this just now, not because he couldn't think of it, but because it wasn't appropriate. To Ning Lingyu, Qin Dongxue was her elder and her aunt. She didn't have to worry about teaching Ning Lingyu a lesson.
This was a crucial question. The Devil Subduing Conference had ended five days ago!
The first three days were fine because Ling Yun was undergoing his Heavenly Tribulation from the 21st to the 23rd. Qin Dongxue couldn't take out her phone after her cultivation dissipated. It was understandable that they lost contact.
But what about yesterday and today? Qin Dongxue always had her phone with her, and it was always switched on.
It wasn't that Ning Lingyu couldn't contact Qin Dongxue, but that Qin Dongxue couldn't contact her!
"Aunty, don't be angry. It's not that I don't care about you, but I saw Big Brother's performance at the Devil Subduing Conference in the group chat. I know the process and the outcome …"
Ning Lingyu explained softly, obviously aggrieved.
Qin Dongxue was stunned. "Group? What group? "
Ning Lingyu replied, "It's the QQ group that Tie Xiaohu created. My brother's seventy-two disciples of the Immortal Physician Sect are all in it. My brother, Sister Ling Xiu, Sister Ling Xue, and Mo Wudao are all in it … He uploaded the video of the Demon Subduing Conference …"
"Phew …"
When Ling Yun heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief and felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
No matter how many doubts he had, after listening to Ning Lingyu's explanation, those doubts in his heart disappeared like smoke in thin air.
This was because there was indeed such a group created by Tie Xiaohu. When Lingyu and the rest had first arrived in Beijing, Ling Yun had brought everyone to the Forbidden City. The eight of them had entered that group together. However, from that day onwards, Ling Yun had only entered that group once.
That was when he went to the martial arts school where the seventy-two disciples of the Immortal Physician Sect were cultivating. He sent a pair of red packets in the group while guiding them in their cultivation. It was practically a rain of red packets, and everyone had a great time snatching the red packets in the group.
After that, Ling Yun left Beijing quickly and didn't pay attention to that group anymore.
However, that didn't mean that others didn't. Tie Xiaohu, Mo Wudao, Ning Lingyu, Cao Shanshan, Ling Xiu, Ling Xue, Ling Feng, and Ling Li were all in that group. None of them cared about the traffic fees. How could they not communicate with each other about the Devil Subduing Conference?
That was simply impossible!
"F * ck, how could I have forgotten about that …"
Ling Yun was a little annoyed. The video of the Devil Subduing Conference was personally recorded by Mo Wudao. How could such an exciting video not be sent to the group?
As long as Ning Lingyu followed the group, she would definitely see the video and open it. Therefore, she already knew the process and outcome of the Devil Subduing Conference. Why would she be worried?
It could be said that Ning Lingyu's explanation was much more reasonable than the one that mimicked an alien's voice!
"So that's how it is …"
Qin Dongxue finally understood. She didn't use QQ often and didn't understand these new things. Therefore, she wasn't as good as Ling Yun in this aspect.
"Yeah, and Mo Wudao has been talking about my brother in the group almost every day. Everyone can see it …"
Then what was there to worry about?
Ling Yun was busy, Qin Dongxue was busy, but there was a super idle person in Ling Yun's team — Mo Wudao!
Ling Yun almost never saw him putting his phone into his spatial ring! This brat was talking about cultivating every day, but he ate and slept as usual. His phone never left his hand, and Ling Yun almost never saw him put it in his spatial ring!
"Aunty, actually, I already knew about you dispersing your cultivation in order to completely leave Deity Sword Mountain Villa. However, I wasn't too worried because Big Brother was around. I knew he would definitely have a way to help you recover …
"Therefore, the day before yesterday, I heard from Mo Wudao in the group that you might be staying in Qingshui City for a few days, so I threw my phone into my spatial ring and went about my own business …"
At this point, Ling Yun no longer paid attention to the conversation between Qin Dongxue and Ning Lingyu. He rose thousands of meters into the air and pondered while cultivating the Stellar Condensation Technique.
Was it a false alarm?
Ling Yun was still thinking about this question.
Now, Ning Lingyu had explained everything. If this was a misunderstanding or a false alarm, then it could only be blamed on the advanced communication technology in this society!
Not only were there cell phones, but there were also groups. Everyone had too many ways of contacting each other, especially in groups. It was no longer one-on-one, but many. In a group, everything could be communicated. As long as one paid attention to the messages in the group, everyone would know instantly.
At the same time, Ling Yun, Ning Lingyu, and Qin Dongxue all had spatial rings now. As long as they were busy, they could throw their phones into the spatial ring and do whatever they wanted to do.
It was very obvious that this was extremely easy to cause all kinds of accidents. Everyone clearly saw and knew about a major event, but when they wanted to make a call to communicate, the other party's phone was placed in their Space Ring. As a result, they would miss it.
Ning Lingyu had just entered the school. She had to go through military training, learning, and cultivation. How much effort did she have to put in to make a phone call that she couldn't reach?
That was indeed too torturous, especially when she knew that Ling Yun was trying to break through and that Qin Dongxue was dispersing her cultivation …
No matter how close Ling Yun and Ning Lingyu were or how close Ning Lingyu and Qin Dongxue were, it would be too harsh to make such a request to Ning Lingyu.
Therefore, Ning Lingyu didn't have any problems.
But that voice …
That unusually cold voice lingered in Ling Yun's ears. He couldn't get it out of his head.
"Is it really an imitation of aliens? A whim? "
Ling Yun muttered. He needed to confirm something.
He fiddled with his phone in the air, thinking of who to contact.
Ling Yun thought of Chi Xiaoqing and Second Uncle Ling Yue, but he rejected them all. Finally, he put away his phone and took out his communicator.
"Cui Lao, I have something that I need your help to investigate as soon as possible …"
"Yes, it's about Lingyu. However, don't alert her about this. All you have to do is investigate my sister's life at Peking University on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month. Especially if she attended a class called Space Science at night. This includes who taught that class, whether there was a movie, what kind of movie was shown, and what content was taught after that. All these details must be investigated thoroughly."
Cui Lao was the commander of the Ling Family's Thirty-six Men of Sacrifice. It had been three weeks since he led the Ling Family's Men of Sacrifice to gather intelligence. Ling Yun could take this opportunity to see the results of the training.
Therefore, Ling Yun handed this matter over to Cui Lao.
Ning Lingyu's explanation was very reasonable, and it sounded flawless. However, what Ling Yun wanted wasn't reasonable, but the truth.
Reasonable words might not necessarily be the truth!
Ning Lingyu was too important to Ling Yun. He had to investigate thoroughly and confirm that everything Ning Lingyu said was true in order to believe that there was nothing wrong with her.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as a problem. The problem would be too serious!
…
The second day was even more important.
