The Ling Family would seek revenge. That was something that everyone who knew about the tragedy of the Ling Family could think of.
However, it was one thing to think about it and another to hear it from the Ling Family.
What's more, it was announced by the Ling Family's Patriarch in front of everyone on this occasion!
Ling Yun had never said anything in the past, but he made it clear today.
Those who knew Ling Yun knew that he was a man of his word. Once he said it, there was no way he would change it!
It was foreseeable that after today, the other half of the ancient martial arts world in Huaxia would become like ants on a hot pan.
"The second thing I want to announce is …"
"From today onwards, no one will dare to provoke the Ling Family, the Cao Family, or the Qin Family other than necessary business competition …"
After a pause, Ling Yun noticed the expectant gazes of Li Guanping and Li Junhua below the stage. He could only add, "And the Li Family."
"Don't blame me for being merciless then! I didn't warn you beforehand! "
Everyone knew that the Cao Family and the Ling Family were in the Iron Alliance through marriage.
Qin Qiuyue from the Qin Family was Ling Yun's adoptive mother.
As for the Li Family, even though they didn't have much of a relationship with the Ling Family in the past, the Li Family had been investing in the Ling Yun Group like crazy over the past two months. They had also taken on the construction of Ling Yun's outer residence. Everyone knew that they wanted to rely on the Ling Family.
Of course, there was also Xue Chengye, Lin Hongjun, Zhuang Tiande, Murong Wenshi, and the others from the Qingshui Water Sect. Ling Yun didn't need to say it out loud.
Everyone in the banquet hall, be it the masters of the ancient martial arts world or the leaders of the secular world, was shocked and terrified!
How could they not be? The Ling Family alone was already so terrifying. Adding on the Cao Family, the Qin Family, and the Li Family …
There were only six big families left in Huaxia, and four of them had formed an alliance. Who in the secular world could compete with them?
As for the Ye Family, Ye Qingfeng was sitting in the first row of the banquet hall after apologizing to them at the entrance of the Ling Family!
"F * ck, this kid isn't kind. He actually didn't mention our Ye Family …"
Ye Tianshui's eyes dimmed as he complained to Ye Tiandu beside him.
"Are you stupid? As long as Ling Yun doesn't attack us, why would our Ye Family need anyone else's protection? Besides, if he really brings the Ye Clan along, do you think my father can sit in the first row? "
Ye Tian couldn't help but roll his eyes. "That kid is so smart!"
"That's true …"
"The third one!"
Ling Yun did not seem to want to give the audience time to react and immediately announced the third matter.
"From today onwards, the Ling Family will fully take over the mess left behind by the destruction of the Sun and Chen Families. Furthermore, we will take back all the assets that were stolen from us by the other families!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd below the stage gasped once more.
One had to know that those who came to the Ling Family to offer their blessings today were not invited. Other than the Ling Family's own people, the others had all received the news of the Ling Family's actions last night. After weighing the pros and cons, they decided to rush over at the last minute.
Ling Yun had just announced an alliance with the Qin, Cao, and Li Families. Without a doubt, the Cao and Li Families would have long returned all the assets that were stolen from the Ling Family.
Including the Qin Family, there were originally eight big families in Huaxia. The Sun and Chen Families had long been destroyed. The Qin, Cao, and Li Families were the Ling Family's allies. Ye Qingfeng from the Ye Family had just taken the initiative to admit his mistake at the entrance of the Ling Family's ancestral home and personally announced that he would return all the assets to the Ling Family with interest.
Who was left then?
There was only one family left, the Long Family!
If the second thing that Ling Yun announced was an announcement of an ally, then the third thing that he just announced was an announcement of an enemy.
Unless the Long Family would also send someone to return all the assets that were stolen from the Ling Family with interest, just like the Ye Family!
Therefore, some smart and meddlesome people couldn't help but turn around and look in the direction of the banquet hall.
The door was closed, and no one came.
"Looks like some people have already thought of it."
Ling Yun naturally noticed their reactions. He smiled and said sternly, "Even if the opponent is the Long Family, it will be the same!"
"The outcome will not change!"
"We will definitely take back what the Ling Family has lost!"
The corner of Ye Qingfeng's eyes twitched unnaturally. He glanced at Zhou Wenyi beside him and realized that Zhou Wenyi was indeed looking at him.
Ling Yun was openly challenging the Long Family!
It was tantamount to declaring war in public!
Ye Qingfeng's gaze was slightly mocking. His meaning was clear. If the Ling Family and the Long Family really fell out, what would the Great Elder of the Heaven Team do?
Zhou Wenyi only smiled and didn't respond.
In the back row, Ye Tianshui's insides trembled. "Too fierce!"
Ye Tiandu also grinned. "How domineering, absolutely fierce!"
"The fourth matter!"
Ling Yun was here again. He took two steps forward and shouted, "What's wrong with men and women loving each other since ancient times?"
"My parents loved each other back then. They didn't steal or rob, nor did they kill or harm anyone. Who's in their way?"
Ling Yun questioned repeatedly, but he didn't need anyone to answer. He continued, "Listen up!
"I don't care if others call my mother the Holy Virgin of the Devil Sect, the Holy Virgin of the Demon Sect, or the Holy Virgin of the Ghost Sect. I only know that she's my biological mother!
"My father was forced to make a vow never to see my mother again in this life. That vow is no longer valid!
"Not only that, but I also want to clear my parents' grievances personally. Before the Spring Festival, I will fight my way to the headquarters of the Devil Sect and ask for her. I will kill anyone who stands in my way. I will save my mother and reunite my parents!"
Ling Xiao was so excited that his body swayed!
"Yun Er, well said!"
Ling Lie couldn't hold it in any longer. His blood was already boiling, and he was the first to raise his arms and shout!
Eighteen years of humiliation for the Ling Family!
At this moment, Ling Yun had finally cleared their name!
Qingniao had already stood up. Her eyes were filled with tears. "Yun Er, good child!"
"Yun Er, don't worry. If you save your mother, the Ling Family will fight to the death!" Ling Yue was even more excited.
"…"
At this moment, everyone from the Ling Family had already stood up. Their voices were louder and louder, almost flipping the roof!
"Ling Yun, I, Ye Tianshui, support you on this matter! You must call me when the time comes! "
Ye Tianshui couldn't hold it in anymore. He almost jumped onto the table and shouted!
Ye Tiandu: "…"
Hearing this, Ye Qingfeng secretly smiled.
Zhou Wenyi pursed his lips. "This time, the cultivation world of Huaxia is really going to be lively …"
After a long while, the noise finally died down under Ling Yun's repeated signals.
He looked disdainfully and pointed at the top experts of the ancient martial arts world.
"I know that among the martial artists here today, there are Buddhist sects, Taoist sects, Sect Masters and Elders of the ancient martial arts sects, as well as the heads and guests of the hidden families … All of you claim to be righteous in the martial arts world!
"I will only say this once. I won't wait for you after the deadline!
"Now, I, Ling Yun, am standing here. If there is anyone who can't stand the fact that I saved my mother and reunited with my parents, you don't have to bring people to kill your way into my Ling Family. You can stand up and oppose me now!
"Is there anyone who objects?"
Silence! Deathly silence!
Who dared?
With the Devil Subduing Conference and the terrifying pressure that Ling Yun had just released, who else in the banquet hall could withstand a single blow from Ling Yun?
Whoever stood up would die!
Zen Master Jue Yuan of Shaolin Temple lowered his head.
Taoist Master Chong Xu of Wudang Mountain lowered his head.
It was as if he was meditating.
Ye Tianshui facepalmed. "Damn, I've never seen anyone treat their guests like this since I was young …"
Ye Tiandu found a blade of grass out of nowhere and nodded in agreement. "Yes, me too. However, it depends on the guest …"
"No objections, right? That's good. "
Ling Yun laughed coldly and turned to look at Ling Xiao. "Father, look, it's not as difficult as you think."
When he turned again, Ling Yun put on a stern expression. "I hope everyone here remembers that my mother's surname is Yin, Yin from Yin Shang. My full name is Qingxuan. From now on, no matter who dares to gossip about my mother's identity, as long as I hear them, I will chase them to the ends of the earth and cut off their tongues! "
Alright, he couldn't even mention the Holy Virgin of the Devil Sect anymore.
Ling Yun was trying to clear his mother's name!
Only then could it be justified!
"The fifth matter!"
Whoosh!
A red light flashed!
Ling Yun took out the Blood Dissipating Blade from the Great Void Ring. The scarlet glow of the blade flickered under the dazzling lights of the stage!
Ling Yun raised the blood blade. "Let everyone know that the Devil Sect's sacred item, the Devil's Blade, is in my hands!"
"Wow …"
At this moment, the ancient martial arts experts in the banquet hall could no longer sit still. There was an uproar!
Ling Yun laughed coldly. "I heard that whoever has the Devil's Blade is the Devil Lord of the world! This blade has been with me for more than half a year!
"If anyone wants to uphold justice or take it for themselves, feel free to find me!"
"…"
The ancient martial arts cultivators below the stage kept quiet out of fear. Everyone felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles.
However, no one dared to stand up and say anything.
"Hmph, if one has the intention to harm others, everything in the world can hurt them! If one doesn't have the intention to harm others, even if one sits in a pile of weapons, they are nothing more than a pile of scrap metal! "
"Master Jue Yuan is an enlightened monk. I don't know if what I said is right or wrong."
Ling Yun suddenly called out Zen Master Jue Yuan.
Even though Jue Yuan was enlightened, he almost wanted to cry at this moment!
However, he knew that he couldn't avoid it. He had no choice but to stand up. "Amitabha, I can't refute Master Ling's words."
"Master Jue Yuan, please take a seat."
Ling Yun smiled brightly. "If Master Jue Yuan is right, then it seems to be true."
The red light flashed and disappeared.
Ling Yun kept the Blood Dissipating Blade and said indifferently, "Everything that I, Ling Yun, have said today, no matter who leaves this place, can be spread to the outside world.
"In the past half a year, there have been at least eight hundred souls that have died under the Devil's Blade. It doesn't matter if a few more blind people come to feed the blade."
