"Yeah, I can't afford to offend them either …" Ling Yun admitted directly.
After that, the two brothers shut up at the same time. They looked at each other for a few seconds and laughed at the same time.
"But I think there are still people who can control them …"
Ling Yun said with a smile after some thought.
"Big Brother Yun, who?" Tang Meng was shocked.
"My Aunty!"
Who else could it be but Qin Dongxue? Out of all the goddesses in Qingshui City, Qin Dongxue was the only one who could control them.
Qin Dongxue's status and seniority were all there.
Tang Meng slapped his thigh. "That's right, how could I have forgotten about Aunty Qin!"
Actually, it wasn't that he had forgotten, but Qin Dongxue's status was too high. Tang Meng didn't dare to visit Qin Dongxue unless it was something important for Ling Yun.
The atmosphere in Beijing is too tense now, I can't let them come and cause trouble …
Ling Yun had just rescued Cao Shanshan. If anything happened to any of the goddesses, Ling Yun would be busy.
Ling Yun took out his phone, ignoring all the notifications that were popping up all over the place. Instead, he called Ning Lingyu directly.
Ling Yun knew that his sister wasn't asleep yet.
The phone rang once before Ning Lingyu picked it up.
"Big Brother!" Ning Lingyu's excited voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Lingyu, I haven't finished settling things here, but because of my college entrance exam results, Xian Er, Ning Er, and the rest are very anxious. They want to come to Beijing to look for me. Tell Aunty to stop them from coming to Beijing and cause trouble for me."
"Oh, I got it!" Ning Lingyu knew that her brother wouldn't call her at such a late hour if he wasn't extremely anxious. Therefore, she agreed without hesitation.
"Let me tell you a piece of good news. I've already rescued Cao Shanshan. She's fine now. If Zhang Ling wants to come to Beijing, she can come over."
Zhang Ling and Cao Shanshan had been deskmates for three years. Furthermore, they were best friends. There was nothing they didn't talk about. Just now, Cao Shanshan had taken the initiative to ask about Zhang Ling. Ling Yun felt that it was necessary for the two of them to meet. This would be of great help to Cao Shanshan's recovery.
"Oh …" Ning Lingyu's heart was filled with mixed emotions. She only agreed to it, but did not say anything else.
"Lingyu, you must remember to take things step by step. Don't rush for quick results. The more stable your foundation is now, the higher your achievements will be in the future. Do you understand?"
Before hanging up, Ling Yun didn't forget to remind her.
"Big Brother, I understand. You have to be careful in Beijing …" Ning Lingyu also reminded her brother out of concern.
Ling Yun smiled. "Tell Aunty that I'll return to Qingshui after I'm done with my work. Then I'll hang up first. Rest early. "
After hanging up the phone, Ling Yun still did not look at any messages on his phone and directly put it away.
"Big Brother Yun, you must have been under a lot of pressure in Beijing these few days, right?"
Tang Meng lit up his cigarette. Finally, he stopped smiling mischievously and got down to business.
"Phew …" There was no need for Ling Yun to pretend in front of Tang Meng. He let out a long sigh and relaxed his body. "It was indeed quite stressful!"
Ling Yun was right. Not only was it stressful, but the burden on his shoulders was also too heavy!
For example, if Ling Yun didn't have the Devil's Blade, the Dragon Vein Sword, and the Dark Storm, he wouldn't have been able to break through the defense of a Xiantian Realm Level Seven master!
If Ling Yun didn't have the Stellar Condensation Technique, that terrifying defense, and the addition of four thousand kilograms of strength, he wouldn't even be able to deal with a Xiantian Realm Level Five master!
Furthermore, if Ling Yun didn't have the Dragon Elephant Divine Force, the various talismans, and the dragon saliva to provide him with an endless supply of spiritual energy …
Ling Yun couldn't even defeat a Viscount, let alone an Earl or Marquis of the Blood Clan. It would be extremely difficult for him to deal with an ordinary Baron.
His current combat power would be on par with an expert at the early stages of Xiantian Realm Level Four if he were to disregard all of the above.
Moreover, this was only against an enemy. Ling Yun had just returned to the family, and his biological father, Ling Xiao, was missing. He needed to find him. The Ling Family was in danger, and he needed to protect them …
As for Ling Yun's own matters, he had another important matter to attend to in Beijing. He needed to find out who was the one who spared no effort in hiring the assassins from the Assassins Organization to take his life.
Ling Yun wouldn't feel at ease if he didn't find this hidden enemy!
In front of everyone, Ling Yun appeared to be arrogant and valiant. However, the increasing pressure on his shoulders made it hard for him to breathe. He didn't even have the time to cultivate in peace. These matters needed to be resolved urgently.
However, Tang Meng was Ling Yun's brother, and Tang Meng was like a roundworm in Ling Yun's stomach. Both of them only needed to look at each other to understand each other's thoughts. These few days, Ling Yun had been extremely busy with the Cao Family's matters. He had not even spoken to Tang Meng much. This sudden decrease in contact made Tang Meng vaguely feel that Ling Yun must be under a lot of pressure in Beijing.
Tang Meng couldn't help but ask, "Big Brother Yun, since Cao Shanshan has been rescued, why don't we return to Qingshui City? It'll be great to return to our own territory and be carefree!"
Ling Yun narrowed his eyes and glanced at Tang Meng. Tang Meng's heart skipped a beat. Then, he smiled and patted Tang Meng's shoulder.
"Retreat? Escape? Tang Meng, remember this. In my dictionary, there is no such thing as' retreat 'or' escape '! "
What was cultivation?
Cultivation was something that went against the heavens. The most important point of cultivation was to be able to withstand all kinds of torture from the heavens, including the Heavenly Tribulation!
If he had to go through the Heavenly Tribulation, what else could make Ling Yun retreat and escape?
If one really had to ask Ling Yun why he wanted to cultivate, Ling Yun could only say that it was for two reasons. The first was to become stronger, continuously become stronger.
As for the second reason, it was naturally to cultivate and pursue the path of immortality!
Ling Yun cultivated the Way of the Heart, and the Way of the Heart emphasized the state of mind. If he retreated or escaped even once, even if it was just a single thought, then his state of mind would no longer be complete, and a fatal crack would appear.
In the short term, it wouldn't affect him much. However, when it came to the critical moment of the Heavenly Tribulation, he would definitely be struck by the Heavenly Tribulation and die!
Ling Yun had failed once, and he didn't want to fail a second time!
Therefore, Ling Yun's words were very serious, unprecedentedly serious.
Tang Meng was infected. He took a deep puff of his cigarette and nodded his head heavily.
Ling Yun was also hesitant about whether he should tell Tang Meng about his return to the family. However, he ultimately decided not to. Before he found his father, Ling Yun decided not to tell anyone about this.
He didn't want to bring harm to his friends, his father, and the Ling Family. Even more so, he didn't want it to affect his overall plan.
"Is there anything else? If there's nothing else, rest early. Tomorrow morning, come with me to the airport to pick someone up! "
It was almost three in the morning. Ling Yun could still endure it, but Tang Meng's eyes were bloodshot. No matter how young and energetic he was, he wouldn't be able to endure the continuous running.
Tang Meng nodded and bade Ling Yun good night. He returned to the tenth floor and went to rest in the room of one of the Green Dragon lackeys.
Ling Yun returned to the presidential suite, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate.
…
The sun rose from the east. The long night passed just like that, and a new day arrived.
At six in the morning, Ling Yun slowly opened his eyes. He first looked at Cao Shanshan, who was sleeping soundly on the bed. Then, he flew to the bedside and gently tucked Cao Shanshan in to prevent her from catching a cold. Then, in a flash, he went to the window and opened it. Facing the east, he started cultivating his Stellar Condensation Technique.
Ling Yun placed great importance on the cultivation of the Stellar Condensation Technique. He understood the importance of breaking through the third major realm of the Stellar Condensation Technique. It was no less important than reaching the Qi Refinement Stage!
The Stellar Condensation Technique would get harder as it progressed. Each major breakthrough was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. It required days and months of hard work.
Fortunately, Ling Yun felt that he was close to the threshold of the third major realm of the Stellar Condensation Technique.
After another hour, a moan came from behind him, followed by the sound of a violent struggle. Cao Shanshan, who was in a deep sleep, was struggling and rolling on the bed!
"Don't touch me!"
"Ah, Chen Jianwei, I'm going to kill you!"
"Dad, Mom, Grandpa …"
"Ling Yun, where are you, where are you …"
"I can't tell anyone, I can't tell anyone even if I die. I can't tell anyone, I can't hurt him …"
Cao Shanshan was having a nightmare!
"Whoosh!"
Ling Yun stopped his cultivation and appeared in front of Cao Shanshan's bed in a flash. He bent down quickly and stretched out both his arms to gently press on Cao Shanshan's shoulders, calling out to her gently.
"Shanshan, Shanshan …"
Ling Yun's brows were furrowed. His lips were tightly pursed, and his eyes were spewing flames of anger. He wanted to tear Chen Jianwei apart!
Even in her dreams, Cao Shanshan kept reminding herself not to reveal Ling Yun's secret. That was to protect Ling Yun from harm!
In the past three months, just how intense was the shock and the struggle with anger she had gone through?
"Sigh …"
Without a doubt, Ling Yun's judgment was correct. Cao Shanshan's heart was greatly agitated.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Cao Shanshan opened her eyes. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and her breathing was rapid. She stared at Ling Yun's face for a long time, and suddenly, she plunged into Ling Yun's embrace. "Wahhh!" She cried bitterly.
"Alright, alright … it's alright, Shanshan, it's just a nightmare …"
Ling Yun ignored Cao Shanshan's messy nightgown and half of her body. He hugged Cao Shanshan lovingly and patted her back as if he was comforting a frightened child. (To be continued.)
