Ling Yun had already entered the vast Yan Mountain range at this time.
In the remote mountains and old forests, he exerted his lightness skill to the limit. He crossed over mountains and crossed rivers with all his strength. Soon, from east to west, he had crossed the entire north bank of the Miyun Reservoir.
In fact, there was a large highway surrounding the entire Miyun Reservoir. However, Chen Jianwei was flying in the sky and naturally wouldn't fly directly above the highway. In order to avoid being discovered, he was very careful along the way. He flew above the remote mountains, which made things difficult for Ling Yun, who was using his two feet to track him.
Ling Yun passed through the Longyun Mountain scenic area, crossed the White River, and came to a nameless mountain ridge. He stopped to rest.
"F * ck, isn't he just flying? How dare he be so arrogant just because he can fly?" Ling Yun cursed angrily again.
Ling Yun realized that the aura of the thousand-mile soul chasing powder was concentrated around the Miyun Reservoir for a while, causing him to take a big detour and head west again.
He took out the magical gourd and gulped down a few mouthfuls of dragon saliva to replenish his spiritual energy. His eyes hardened as he chased towards the west once again.
He had to find Shanshan's hiding place before it started raining. Otherwise, the aura of the thousand-mile soul chasing powder that Chen Jianwei left on the dense forest would be washed away. Ling Yun's previous efforts would be in vain.
Ling Yun finally saw a majestic mountain standing in front of him. It was at least a thousand meters above sea level, and the top of the mountain was surrounded by white clouds.
This was a famous mountain. When he was in Qingshui City, he had paid close attention to it and studied it before he came to Beijing.
"Looks like Chen Jianwei hid Shanshan in this mountain …"
Yunmeng Mountain!
Ling Yun looked back and saw the Miyun Reservoir in the distance. It was only seven kilometers away from where he was standing in a straight line.
However, Ling Yun had traversed the mountains and ridges along the way. As the saying goes, a horse will die if it's only looking at the mountain. He had traversed at least seventy kilometers in this uninhabited area where there was no mountain path!
Only Ling Yun, who possessed a body at the pinnacle of the second major realm of the Stellar Condensation Technique, could continuously absorb the spiritual energy in the deep mountains and forests, and could rely on his Qinggong to track them all the way here. If it were anyone else, they would have run to their deaths.
"F * ck, into the mountain!"
Ling Yun leaped down and dashed toward the Yunmeng Mountain on the opposite side.
It could be said that all of the famous mountains around Beijing had been developed into scenic spots. However, just like Qingshui City's Dragon Mountain, no matter how much it was developed, a mountain was still a mountain. Those scenic spots were fixed. No matter how many tourists came, they had to follow the tourist route.
Yunmeng Mountain was full of cliffs and steep cliffs that were rarely visited by humans!
Ling Yun's Qinggong was peerless. Of course, he wouldn't walk on the main road. He burrowed into the dense forest, away from people's sight, and continued to fly at full speed.
Ling Yun entered the deep mountainous area of the Yunmeng Mountain very quickly.
A cliff that was a hundred feet tall appeared in front of Ling Yun. The mountain was lush and lush, and there were waterfalls and springs. The scenery was magnificent and beautiful.
The aura of the thousand-mile soul chasing powder became denser and more chaotic. It was obvious that Chen Jianwei had to pass through this place when he came in and out.
Ling Yun stopped and observed carefully in the dense forest. He tried to search for the aura on both sides of the cliff, but the aura became fainter the further he went.
He should be hiding on this cliff, but I don't know which cave he's in …
Ling Yun became even more careful. He found a place that wouldn't be easily seen from the sky and hid himself. Sitting cross-legged, he began to absorb spiritual energy to restore himself and build up his strength.
The spiritual energy in this mountain is so dense … Ling Yun was secretly shocked as he absorbed the spiritual energy.
The Yunmeng Mountain, also known as the "Little Yellow Mountain", was located at the border between Miyun County and Huairou District.
The mountains were tall and steep, and the valleys were deep and serene. There were many strange peaks and rocks, waterfalls and springs everywhere. The clouds were unpredictable, and the trees and flowers were fragrant. The natural scenery was beautiful, and the spiritual energy was extremely dense.
Ling Yun guessed that there must be something special about the Yunmeng Mountain. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such dense spiritual energy here.
More than half an hour later, the sky became even darker. Clouds and mist rose in the darkness, and it seemed that night was coming.
That grandson Chen Jianwei should be coming out soon, right?
Ling Yun stood up and didn't stay any longer. He silently traversed one kilometer in the dense forest and took out his phone to give Tang Meng a call.
"I have something on and will be back very late tonight. Go find a place to stay first. Remember, you can only stay in a hotel. Don't stay in my courtyard house."
Ling Yun didn't forget to remind Tang Meng. He was afraid that something would go wrong. It would be too late if someone from the Cao Family rushed out of the basement and bit Tang Meng.
It would be too late for Ling Yun to go back and make any talismans. He called Cui Lao and told him to rush over with Pierce after dinner.
"Cui Lao, I'll be waiting for you here at the main peak of the Yunmeng Mountain. Ring the bell when you arrive!"
After deciding on the meeting point, Ling Yun set his phone to vibrate. Then, he sneaked back and found a place where he could observe the entire cliff. After concealing his tracks, he expanded his divine sense to the maximum and began the long wait.
…
On the cliff opposite Ling Yun, about two hundred meters above the ground, there was a naturally formed deep cave.
The cave wasn't small. It was at least two meters in diameter. It was dark and serene. In the darkness of the night, the entrance of the cave was like a giant beast with its mouth wide open, ready to devour anyone.
The deeper they went, the narrower it was at first. Then, it gradually widened. There were signs of human activity. It was obvious that the outside of the cave was naturally formed, but the inside of the cave was man-made.
After three turns, the cave became pitch-black. It was so dark that one couldn't even see their fingers in front of them.
Further in, the cave became extremely spacious. There was a large empty space about two hundred square meters. It was four to five meters high, and there was a huge black coffin in the middle of the cave!
Chen Jianwei was sleeping in this coffin, recuperating.
Ling Yun didn't waste his effort. He found the right place. This cliff of the Yunmeng Mountain was Chen Jianwei's hiding place.
On the walls surrounding the cave, there were two huge stone doors, one on each side of the cave. Behind each of the two stone doors was a huge room, and the stone doors were tightly shut.
One of the rooms was filled with the corpses of young girls. Most of the corpses were already rotten. Their blood had been sucked dry by Chen Jianwei. After their deaths, they were specially treated by Chen Jianwei. That was why there was no stench even though they had started to rot.
The other room was extremely clean. There was a bed, a mosquito net, a table, a chair, fresh water, and a sumptuous meal. However, there was no light source.
There was another woman. It was Cao Shanshan.
Cao Shanshan returned to the Cao Family in Beijing after the Qingming Festival in early April. She was then captured by Chen Jianwei. It had been almost three months since then.
For the first two months, Cao Shanshan was still under house arrest by Chen Jianwei in the Chen Family's ancestral home. But a month ago, she was brought here by Chen Jianwei and hidden on the cliff of Yunmeng Mountain.
To Cao Shanshan, these three months had been a cruel, hellish nightmare. She had thought of committing suicide countless times, but in the end, she had gritted her teeth and endured it.
Chen Jianwei wasn't afraid that Cao Shanshan would commit suicide. He knew that Cao Shanshan wouldn't because she wanted to take revenge for the Cao Family. He told Cao Shanshan viciously that she and Cao Tianlong were the only ones left in the Cao Family who hadn't received The Embrace.
Moreover, Chen Jianwei told Cao Shanshan that her brother, Cao Tianlong, had escaped. He deliberately gave Cao Shanshan a glimmer of hope.
That was because no matter how powerful Chen Jianwei was, he couldn't stop Cao Shanshan from committing suicide before the Embrace. He could only use this method.
"If you want to save your family or wait for your brother to save you, you have to live …"
After Chen Jianwei advanced to Viscount, he used the Evil Eye on Cao Shanshan twice to hypnotize her. He made Cao Shanshan spill a lot of secrets about herself and the Cao Family that she knew.
Even though Cao Shanshan had the Emperor Brush's Immortal Spiritual Energy sealed in her body, she was still an ordinary girl who hadn't even reached Houtian Realm Level Two. Under the Evil Eye, she spilled almost everything.
Chen Jianwei got a lot of secrets from Cao Shanshan, but he didn't get Ling Yun's. Up until now, he only knew that Ling Yun was Cao Shanshan's classmate and boyfriend. As for Ling Yun's other secrets, especially the secret of the Emperor Brush, Cao Shanshan didn't spill them even when she was hypnotized by the Evil Eye!
It had to be said that Cao Shanshan's love for Ling Yun had the absolute upper hand against Chen Jianwei's shallow Evil Eye.
That was because on the night of the Qingming Festival, Ling Yun had killed his way into the Zhuang Family. The Emperor Brush Spirit Energy had reversed, and Ling Yun's realm had skyrocketed. After the scene of the Nine Dragons Protection appeared, Ling Yun had solemnly said that this was his biggest secret, and he must never tell anyone.
Ever since then, Cao Shanshan had engraved it in her heart. Even Chen Jianwei's hypnosis didn't make her reveal this secret.
Cao Shanshan had absolute freedom in this dark room. She had already adapted to the absolute darkness.
"Brother, you have to escape. You have to find Ling Yun. If there's really someone who can save the Cao Family, it must be Ling Yun!"
Cao Shanshan didn't cry. Other than sleeping, all she could do was pray.
"Live on. Even if Chen Jianwei really gives me The Embrace, I have to live on. I have to take revenge for Grandpa, for my parents, and for the Cao Family!"
Cao Shanshan encouraged herself countless times in the dark. She was looking for the courage to live on. She was waiting. She believed that Ling Yun would come to save her, just like how Ling Yun saved Zhuang Meifeng! (To be continued.)
