Ping Yang looked at Lin Mubai quietly. There was a sense of expectation in her clear eyes. However, this kind of expectation was somewhat desolate.
Ping Yang had always been envied by countless people because she was born in the royal family. She lived a luxurious life and was doted on by the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
However, she suffered the pain of losing her family.
She had never had a mother by her side since she was young. She had never enjoyed motherly love, never met her mother, and never heard her mother speak to her.
Now that she finally received news about her mother and had a chance to meet her mother, she suddenly realized that she was the cause of everything.
Death?
Ping Yang wasn't afraid!
However, she wouldn't be able to see her mother even if she died. Only those who had experienced it themselves could understand the pain and suffering.
"Ping Yang, don't let your imagination run wild. It's impossible. There's no such thing as sealing a person's life in this world. You … you mustn't listen to Cang Yue …" Lin Mubai could naturally guess what Ping Yang was thinking from the look in her eyes.
"It's not life, it's bloodline! Although I didn't witness the process of sealing master, I'm sure that you're the only one who can do it! " Only you can seal Master, "Cang Yue's voice interrupted Lin Mubai's words.
"Bloodline?" Ping Yang turned to Cang Yue.
"That's right. Only by using a connected bloodline can the seal be broken, and only by severing the connected bloodline can the seal be broken. Now that you know the truth, why don't you tell me what you intend to do?" Cang Yue's lips curled into a cold smile.
"I, what should I do …" Ping Yang's lips moved, and her expression became a little gloomy. There was a trace of confusion in her clear eyes.
What should she do? That's right. What should she do in this situation? Who could tell her what she should do? Should she choose life or death!
Silence.
Ping Yang fell silent.
She wasn't the only one. The disciples of Ling Yun Tower were also silent. Although they hated Ping Yang, they understood the pain of a daughter who couldn't see her mother even if she died.
Qian Ye was silent too.
However, Qian Ye's silence made it seem like she was waiting for something. Fang Zhengzhi was also waiting for her. It was a mutual wait.
However, the meaning was not the same as the words.
"If you didn't become a Martial Saint, then master would have been able to come out after a hundred years. But … why did you become a Martial Saint? Why did someone like you, who had no talent at all, become a Martial Saint?!" Cang Yue's voice rang out again. It was obvious that she was in extreme pain.
"That's right. Why … why do I have to become a Saint?" Ping Yang looked up at the golden light screen in the sky. Her expression was somewhat dull.
At this moment, she finally understood why her mother did not appear when she was on the brink of death half a year ago. Only Cang Yue rushed over.
At the same time, she understood why Cang Yue wanted her dead so badly. She also understood why Cang Yue wanted her to change her surname over and over again for the past six months.
As Mother's servant!
Cang Yue hated him, but she could not kill him with her own hands. Despite the hatred in her heart, she could only fulfill her duty as a servant.
However, Ping Yang did not understand why fate would make such a fool out of her?!
She had to step into Ling Yun Tower and wait for half a year. Then, she was told that only her death could save her mother.
"I can't even see my mother once in death? Even … even in death, I can't see her?! "Ping Yang clenched her fists tightly. A crystal clear tear flowed out of her eye.
It was a kind of unwillingness. It was a kind of pain as if a sharp knife had pierced into her heart. This pain caused her body to tremble and her aura to become extremely unstable.
At this moment, a hand was placed on her shoulder. Then, it slowly moved up her jade-like skin, past her face, and wiped away the tear at the corner of her eye.
This action …
It seemed a little frivolous.
However, for some reason, Ping Yang did not resist. This was because she could not see any blasphemy in the other party's eyes. All she saw was a kind of heartfelt love.
"Half a year ago, everyone thought that I would definitely die. But now, am I not still alive?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Ping Yang calmly. His expression became extremely serious.
"But …"
"I know that these two things are different. However, can't we use the same mentality in the face of the same slim hope?" Fang Zhengzhi knew what Ping Yang wanted to say.
"Shameless brat, I …"
"Do you trust me?"
"I … I do!" Ping Yang hesitated for a while, but she still nodded in the end.
"Alright, let me tell you now. Apart from you, there is actually a second person in this world who is related to your mother by blood. Do you believe me?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Qian Ye, who was right in front of him, and smiled faintly.
"A second person?" Ping Yang's body trembled.
"What do you mean by a second person? How can there be a second person in this world? Ping Yang is Master's only flesh and blood! "Cang Yue sneered when she heard this.
However, when Cang Yue sneered, Qian Ye, who had been waiting quietly at the side, trembled slightly, and her hands that were holding onto the two golden beads visibly moved.
It wasn't an obvious movement, and almost no one noticed it. However, Fang Zhengzhi's eyes lit up when he saw it.
If what he had said before was actually just a test, then now, he was 50% sure that his guess was very likely to be true.
"You're right. Yu Er is indeed the only child, but she has a servant, right?" Fang Zhengzhi tightened his grip on the Traceless Sword, and the cold blade left a bloody mark on Cang Yue's throat.
"What do you mean?" Cang Yue's eyes widened.
"How do I sign the master-servant contract?" Fang Zhengzhi asked casually.
"Of course it's with my master's and my blood … Are you saying that my master and I are related by blood?" Cang Yue's expression changed drastically.
She was not the only one. The disciples of Ling Yun Tower who had been lying on the ground, including Lin Mubai, were all extremely shocked at this moment.
"Cang Yue?"
"She's also …"
The disciples of Ling Yun Tower didn't raise their heads, but their bodies were trembling.
Lin Mubai, on the other hand, couldn't stop muttering, "Cang Yue and Yu Er are related by blood? This … That's right, Cang Yue is Yu Er's servant, and she has to use her blood as a sacrifice to sign the master-servant contract. Therefore, Cang Yue also has Yu Er's blood in her body! "
"So, what are you going to do now?" Fang Zhengzhi asked again. At the same time, he stopped Ping Yang, who was about to speak again.
"What am I going to do?! Hehe … You're right. I'm related to master by blood, but Ping Yang was the one who sealed master, not me. This is because Ling Yun Tower cultivates the art of severing emotions. Of course, I wouldn't be the one to do it! "Cang Yue was stunned for a moment, but she quickly regained her senses.
"Really? Are you sure? "
"Of course I'm sure!"
"Do you really think that Leader Lan wanted Yu Er to sever her emotions? If she wanted Yu Er to sever her emotions, why did she hide the fact that she was pregnant with Ping Yang? Moreover, why did she still let Yu Er be the leader of Ling Yun Tower after she gave birth to Ping Yang? "Fang Zhengzhi asked.
"That's because master is the most talented and powerful person in Ling Yun Tower. She's the best candidate to be the leader of Ling Yun Tower!" Cang Yue replied.
"If she couldn't sever her emotions according to Ling Yun Tower's cultivation method, how could she be the most talented and powerful person to be the leader of Ling Yun Tower?"
"You … You're deliberately distorting my thoughts!"
"Alright, even if I'm distorting my thoughts, according to what you said, Leader Lan should have been very disappointed in Yu Er, am I right?"
"That's because master …" Cang Yue didn't finish her sentence.
"If she was disappointed, why did she pass half of Ling Yun Realm to Yu Er?" Fang Zhengzhi continued without waiting for Cang Yue to finish her sentence.
"How … How do you know that master has the other half of Ling Yun Realm?!" Cang Yue was shocked. She turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi in disbelief.
"Isn't it obvious? 'Ling Yun Realm' is Ling Yun Tower's treasure that has been passed down for generations and is controlled by every generation's leader. Therefore, it's unlikely for it to be damaged. There's only one reason why it's damaged. Ling Yun Realm has always been passed down to Yu Er, but Qian Ye managed to snatch a portion of it! "
"What?! She stole it! "
"Of course she stole it. Furthermore, if I'm not wrong, Leader Lan wasn't the one who sealed Yu Er, but Qian Ye!"
"Qian Ye?! Leader … "Cang Yue was in disbelief.
"…"
"You're spouting nonsense! Fang Zhengzhi, how dare you ruin my reputation! " Qian Ye's voice could finally be heard. At the same time, she turned around and charged at Lin Mubai.
As one of the most powerful people in the Holy Region, Qian Ye's power was unquestionable. She appeared behind Lin Mubai almost instantly and engulfed him in a golden radiance.
A powerful aura surged out of Qian Ye's body.
Lin Mubai's face turned extremely pale at this moment. He possessed the strength of a Rebirth State expert, but he was like a baby in front of a giant in front of Qian Ye. He could not resist at all.
"Father!" Following Ping Yang's anxious voice, Lin Mubai knelt on the ground and pressed a hand on his shoulder.
"Fang Zhengzhi, I'll give you one last chance. Hand over Cang Yue and leave with Ping Yang and Lin Mubai. Otherwise, even if I can't kill you, I don't mind letting the two of them die in Ling Yun Tower!" Qian Ye exuded a chilling aura and her eyes shone with a golden light.
"Haha, sure. Let's exchange Cang Yue for His Majesty. However, His Majesty is injured, so you have to let him go first. Otherwise, who knows what will happen!" Fang Zhengzhi nodded and stopped Ping Yang, who was about to charge at Qian Ye. He looked very calm.
Qian Ye was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Fang Zhengzhi to be so decisive. Her expression changed, and she looked at the surrounding disciples of Ling Yun Tower. Then, she loosened her grip.
"Alright, let's go!" Qian Ye shouted coldly.
Lin Mubai slowly stood up from the ground. Blood trickled down the corner of his mouth as he trembled and walked towards Fang Zhengzhi and Ping Yang.
Fang Zhengzhi raised his Traceless Sword a little and continued, "If I'm guessing that Ling Yun Realm was snatched by Qian Ye and Yu Er was sealed by Qian Ye, based on Qian Ye's way of doing things, there's no way she would use Ping Yang's blood to seal Yu Er!"
"Do you think I'll believe your baseless speculation?" Cang Yue gritted her teeth.
"It's up to you whether you believe me or not. I'm just stating the facts. Think about it, when Yu Er was sealed, Ping Yang was going to be sent out of Ling Yun Tower and brought back to Great Xia by Chen Feihua. Under such circumstances, what are the chances of Ping Yang surviving?"
"I won't believe you no matter what you say!" Cang Yue gritted her teeth.
"If I were Cang Yue, I wouldn't use Ping Yang's blood to seal Yu Er. After all, it's too risky. If something goes wrong and Yu Er breaks free from the seal, her plan to steal the Ling Yun Realm and frame Yu Er for the position of the Tower Master would be exposed."
"Shut up!"
"That's why it's safer to use your blood. Firstly, you're in Ling Yun Tower. As long as she's there to protect you, there's no need to worry about anything happening to you. Secondly, Ping Yang isn't a Sage, so she has a limited lifespan. Normally, she would die after 100 years, but you're a Sage, so you have the same lifespan as Yu Er. That's the only way to keep the seal going!"
"…" Cang Yue didn't continue speaking this time, because she knew that Fang Zhengzhi wouldn't stop no matter what she said.
As such, she could only bite her lips and allow Fang Zhengzhi to continue talking to himself.
Just as Cang Yue had predicted, Fang Zhengzhi continued without waiting for her reply, "Do you think there's a possibility that Leader Lan was also killed by Qian Ye?"
