Jing Yaorong had sent people to keep an eye on Jing Jining and didn't allow him to go out. Outside the mortal world, Jing Yaorong's people had been looking for Jing Yunyao, but they failed to find her after so many days.
Because of that, Jing Yaorong couldn't help but doubt whether Jing Yunyao was in the capital now.
Anyway, Jing Yaorong's people weren't useless. Today, the person Jing Yaorong sent to investigate Jing Yunyao came back.
The person found out that Yunyao was Jing Yunyao, but he wasn't sure whether Yunyao was Jing Yunyao, because the information he got about Yunyao wasn't very detailed.
Although not many people in the Jing family knew about Jing Yunyao, Jing Yaorong's henchmen were all aware of it. If they hadn't known, they wouldn't have been sent out to investigate Jing Yunyao.
In the study of the east courtyard of the Jing family's house.
Jing Yaorong was sitting in front of a desk. The trusted subordinate Jing Yaorong sent to investigate Jing Yunyao stood under the desk and reported the information he got.
"The woman's name is Yunyao. She's the eldest daughter-in-law of Family Leng, the head of the four dominant families in the capital. Seventeen years ago, she carried out a mission with her husband and was killed by the enemy in Kunlun Mountain. However, Yunyao suddenly came back not long ago. Although I'm sure she's Jing Yunyao, there's only one word difference between her name and the time of her death. She died at the same time as Jing Yunyao went missing, so I came back to report it to you first, "said the man.
The man went to a dinner party with the head of the Jing family's company in the mortal world. He overheard other people's discussion. These people were also members of the upper class, so they heard the news about Family Leng.
Although Jing Yaorong's subordinate wasn't sure whether the woman was Jing Yunyao, Jing Yaorong was sure that she was Jing Yunyao.
Seventeen years ago, she and her husband were killed by the enemy in Kunlun Mountain. She suddenly came back not long ago. Wasn't she Jing Yunyao?
Only Jing Yaorong knew that Jing Yunyao had died in Kunlun Mountain.
As for the people of the secular world, they didn't know her identity.
"This Yunyao has a son called Leng Shaoting. He is twenty-seven years old this year. He is also a great figure in the secular world. He is the youngest major general in the army." The subordinate said.
Hearing this, Jing Yaorong's eyes narrowed as shock and mockery flashed across his eyes. Yun Yao's son? So, she already had a son! Twenty-seven years old.
In other words, she had been with that man for less than two years, but he didn't find out that she was with him until more than ten years later.
It seemed that he had neglected the existence of Jing Yunyao before! She even had a son.
The youngest major general in the army of the secular world? He was indeed not bad. He was a capable person.
But so what? He still didn't care about it.
"Alright, you can leave now! There's no need to go out for the time being. " Jing Yaorong said. He didn't tell his subordinate that it was Jing Yunyao, but he didn't ask his subordinate to investigate it further. He told his subordinate to confirm that it was indeed Jing Yunyao.
However, as Jing Yaorong's trusted subordinate, even if he knew, he would hide it in his heart and wouldn't tell others.
"Yes, sir, I'll leave now," his subordinate said and walked out.
Sitting in a chair, Jing Yaorong was thinking about Jing Yunyao.
To his surprise, she was married to Family Leng, the head of the four dominant families in the capital.
He didn't find out who Jing Yunyao was married to, but he was furious when he learned that Jing Yunyao was with a man from the secular world, so he directly went to find her.
After killing her, he went back to the cultivation world.
In addition, even if he found out the truth, so what? He couldn't hurt those people anyway. If he did that, he would definitely be found by Tiandaozong, and he would be killed.
Therefore, there was no need for him to lose his life because of those ordinary people.
As for Jing Yunyao's husband, he was completely implicated by Jing Yunyao. He wanted to spare the man's life at that time, but the man didn't fear death and kept moving forward, so Jing Yaorong accidentally threw him off the cliff.
Anyway, it didn't matter if the man died. As long as Tiandaozong didn't know about it, he would be fine.
Jing Yunyao was injured by him by stones and fell off such a high cliff. He was sure that she couldn't survive, so he left. To his surprise, Jing Yunyao was still alive, and her level became so high now.
He regretted it so much. He should have made sure that Jing Yunyao was really dead before he left, and the current situation wouldn't have happened.
It wasn't easy for him to deal with Jing Yunyao now. Jing Yunyao had reached the Yuan Ying Stage, and she had Shangguan Yang's support.
Although he believed that Jing Yunyao had reached the Yuan Ying Stage, she was only at the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage. In addition, Jing Yaorong didn't think that he couldn't defeat Jing Yunyao if he fought against her.
Although he was also at the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage, they were all at the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage.
Jing Yaorong had been at the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage for many years, and his level couldn't be more stable. Therefore, he was more powerful than cultivators who had just reached the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage.
Therefore, in Jing Yaorong's eyes, although Jing Yunyao was at the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage now, she hadn't been at the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage for as long as he had, so she wasn't as powerful as him.
Jing Yunyao reached the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage two or three years ago, but Jing Yaorong had been at it for seven or eight years.
However! Jing Yaorong was still at the early stage of the Yuan Ying Stage, while Jing Yunyao had already reached the early stage of the Out-of-Body Stage.
If Jing Yaorong knew that Jing Yunyao was already at the early stage of the Out-of-Body Stage, he would be scared out of his wits.
Jing Yaorong didn't tell anyone about his investigation of Jing Yunyao. When it was late at night, Jing Yaorong sneaked out of the cultivation world to have a look.
Although Family Leng was the top family in the capital, in the eyes of cultivators, ordinary people were inferior to cultivators no matter how noble they were. Therefore, Jing Yaorong didn't take Family Leng seriously at all.
Of course, he wouldn't hurt Family Leng's members, including Jing Yunyao's son, Leng Shaoting.
After all, they were all ordinary people. If he hurt them, he would be punished by Tiandaozong. He wouldn't cause trouble for no reason. He just wanted to see whether Jing Yunyao was there or not.
What would he do if he found Jing Yunyao? In fact, he didn't know either, but he still wanted to find Jing Yunyao first.
Although he didn't know where Family Leng was, or whether Jing Yunyao was in Family Leng, he would feel uneasy if he didn't go out.
