Fortunately, they didn't come back. Not long after, cultivators came to inquire about Ye Kong's whereabouts. Liu Changqing and the other soldiers didn't know where Ye Kong was, and even if they knew, they wouldn't say it.
Therefore, these bodyguards were captured by a certain cultivator. These cultivators were the only clues they could find, so in order to fight for these bodyguards, the cultivators fought for a long time. In the end, the people of Qing Ming Valley came and killed those cultivators. Liu Changqing and the others fell into the hands of the Qing Ming Valley cultivators until today.
Ye Kong asked them if they knew where the Lu brothers went. Some said they went to Huang Zhou, some said they went to An Du, but in the end, they couldn't say for sure.
It seemed like he wouldn't be able to find any news of them. Ye Kong's heart became a bit more worried. Logically speaking, the Lu brothers and Feng Siniang were all experienced people. If they found his mother, they would definitely come back and tell her. If they couldn't find him, they should have come back. Why didn't they come back?
Could it be that they were also captured? Or did they meet with some mishap?
Ye Kong didn't dare to think about it.
Immediately, he took out all the silver in his storage pouch and let these soldiers go to Huang Zhou to find a living. Ye Kong was busy looking for his mother, so he didn't have time to take care of them.
Of course, Ye Kong was definitely not the kind of person who would let things go with just a bit of money. His creed was "How others treat me, I will treat them twice as well". These bodyguards had been implicated by him time and time again. Even when they were about to die, they were still loyal and devoted to him without any complaints.
If he only gave them a bit of silver and sent them away, wouldn't it be too little compensation for them? Ye Kong told them to go to Huang Zhou to find a living. He was prepared to go to Huang Zhou to find them after he settled down.
The immortal master saved them and gave them money. The soldiers all went to thank him profusely. Ye Kong hid himself and escorted them for a while. After confirming that there was no one watching them, he returned to Southern City.
Ye Clan Ancestral Hall.
Under the 'Tooth for Tooth' plaque, a green robed Ye Kong walked in. He had already removed his disguise and came to see his deceased relatives with his original appearance.
Without using his spiritual power, he walked over one by one and lit the candle grass in front of each memorial tablet. His movements were slow and his expression was solemn.
"Father, although you never looked after me well and never took up the responsibility of a father, I still have to do my duty as a son. I have already avenged you and the whole family! When you hear this news in the underworld, are you very happy? Have you already met that bastard Emperor An Rushan? Will he be beaten by you even if he becomes a ghost? "Ye Kong laughed softly after he finished speaking, but there were tears rolling down from the corners of his eyes.
He then picked up Ye Wei's spirit tablet. "Big Brother, let me tell you a piece of good news. I, your little brother, have finally reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Haven't you always been worried that our Ye Family doesn't have a single cultivator? Now that I have it, I am already a real cultivator, all the people who bullied the Ye Family, I will make them pay a hundredfold! When you hear this news, you will definitely drink a few more cups in the underworld … "
Ye Kong didn't leave the ancestral shrine. For a whole day and night, he stayed in the ancestral shrine, accompanying the cold memorial tablets. He felt that the wooden tablets were not so cold, but warm, and his heart was warm.
Even those brothers and sisters who used to look down on him didn't hate him anymore. He even smiled and said, "Ye Long, Ye Hu, I will come to see you often. Even if you call me trash again, I promise I won't beat you."
One day later, Ye Kong left the ancestral shrine and came to the backyard. There were a few old cypress trees here. This was originally the school of the mansion, and Ye Kong buried Zhang Wude here. Zhang Wude's body was burned by the soldiers who searched the mansion, so this was just a cenotaph.
"Teacher, I helped you kill the person you hate the most. This is his head, you can rest in peace … Teacher, I know you don't want me to become a cultivator. You said that cultivators are all selfish and heartless, that they don't respect the law, that they see mortals as ants, and that they willfully kill the innocent … You are right, but don't worry, I will be a cultivator different from the Cang Nan cultivators! I want to have supreme power, I want to establish iron-like laws, I want this world … to be the world in my imagination! "
Half a day later, Ye Kong took an Appearance Changing Pill and walked out of the Ye Mansion, but the moment he walked out, he was surprised to think of something.
Ancestor Acheron didn't come in! Originally, Ancestor Acheron went to give the old shepherd some money and then followed him in. But two days had passed, and this old fellow actually didn't come!
Ye Kong was shocked, but then he guessed where this old fellow went.
He must have gone to that Little Ying girl. At that time, the old ancestor broke her body, but others didn't know it was the old ancestor who did it, not even Feng Siniang. Under Ye Kong's urging, Feng Siniang gave Little Ying her freedom and even raised her in a courtyard not far from the Hidden Spring House.
Not many people knew about this, so Little Ying was spared. Everyone thought that she had redeemed her freedom, but if Feng Siniang didn't say anything, no one would know, so Little Ying lived in that small courtyard.
This girl didn't cause trouble and liked to stay in the house. There was an old nanny taking care of her, so not many people knew that there was a beauty here.
But recently, there was a bit of trouble. Feng Siniang had left long ago, cutting off their livelihood. After a few years, the mountain of gold had also been eaten up, so the old nanny had some ideas.
News came from outside. Some said that Eighth Young Master Ye was being chased and was already dead. Some said that Eighth Young Master Ye went to live outside the domain, and even Feng Siniang was taken away by him. Others said that Eighth Young Master Ye had saved too many people, and his virtuous deeds were boundless, and he had already ascended to immortality. What he said was very convincing, like how a golden rope fell from the sky and Eighth Young Master Ye climbed up to the sky along the rope.
In short, there was a lot of news, but to sum it up, Eighth Young Master Ye would definitely not come back.
The old nanny couldn't say that she had bad intentions, but the problem was that they had no money. Your Eighth Young Master Ye let Little Ying guard your body, but he couldn't let us starve to death, right?
This kind of situation was very common. Those abandoned wives of merchants had no money to live on, so their only fate was to remarry, or be like Qingmei, sold … … They were forced to live.
Selling was naturally the last step. The old nanny thought that it was best to take the best course of action and let Little Ying remarry. Being the first wife was impossible, so she could only be someone's concubine.
Of course Little Ying wasn't willing. She was the woman of Nan Du's great hero, Eighth Young Master Ye, how could she be someone else's concubine? How would Eighth Young Master face him when he returned!
But Little Ying couldn't help but be persuaded. When she pawned the last of her jewelry, she had no other choice but to agree to meet the old nanny.
Since the young lady had already agreed, the old nanny didn't disappoint. She didn't know how she managed to get together with the Zhao Family's Car Shop's young master. This Zhao Family's Car Shop was one of the best car shops in Nan Du. They were well-off and rich, and the Zhao Family's young master was a rich husband.
