"Guang Yun Empire?"
Even though he was mentally prepared, he didn't expect it to be an empire. He thought it would at most be a dynasty. After all, the Lin family wouldn't be close to an empire. But now, there was a problem.
"Guang Yun Empire," there must be a Martial Saint in the empire. Even the Martial God would have one. If that was the case … then things would be troublesome. After all, with his current cultivation, he wouldn't be afraid of a Martial Saint. He … didn't have the ability to fight a Martial Saint.
"Yes, Guang Yun Empire!" Hearing Liu Changtian talk to himself, the man relaxed and continued, "Everyone knows that countries are divided into Imperial Dynasties, Dynasties, Kingdoms, and Duchies. Empires are already the top existences in the Destiny Realm. Even a Martial Saint wouldn't dare to mess with an Imperial Dynasty."
"Our young master is the third son of the Long family in the Imperial Dynasty. He is very noble, so … please, don't kill …" He was begging for mercy, but also threatening. He thought that if he mentioned the Long family in the Imperial Dynasty, Liu Changtian would be more or less afraid. After all, the Imperial Dynasty was the top existence in the Destiny Realm.
Unfortunately, the man was wrong. He didn't care if the Imperial Dynasty was from the Imperial Dynasty or not. He just wanted to know who was the mastermind behind all this. Why was the Lin family hesitating? Why would a small family in a small Duchy be targeted by those big shots? And why would they send their most noble young master here?
This series of questions gave Liu Changtian a headache. He thought he had taken on an idle job, but now it seemed that wasn't the case.
The man kept looking at Lin Ray's expression, as if he wanted to see Liu Changtian's answer from his expression.
However, to the man's disappointment, Liu Changtian's expression was as calm as water, without any ripples. He couldn't see Liu Changtian's emotions at all.
"You … You …"
He was discouraged. Liu Changtian's expression made him lose confidence.
"Continue."
Liu Changtian said. This wasn't the answer he wanted. The man he wanted hadn't said it yet.
"Oh …"
The man seemed to know a little about Liu Changtian's temper, but he didn't dare to be careless. He nodded and continued, "Two years ago, a mysterious person came to the Long family. He used his powerful cultivation to intimidate the Long family. He wanted my master to leave the Imperial Dynasty and come to this barren land to find the Lin family. Slowly, he killed everyone in the Lin family."
"This way, not only will we be able to destroy the hearts of the Lin family members, but we will also be able to complete the mission those people gave us."
"Bang!" A thunderous sound came from under Liu Changtian's feet. The slab made from Liu Changtian's boulder was completely shattered.
"Uh …" Looking at the shattered stone slab, the man's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, he felt like dying.
"And after that?" Liu Changtian's voice sounded again. He knew that he didn't control his emotions well. It was just that the man's words were too shocking, so he couldn't control himself for a moment.
As the third young master of the Long family, he naturally didn't want to be spoiled. However, the other party was too powerful. In the end, he used the lives of everyone in the Long family as a hostage. Because of that, my young master had no choice but to come here.
However, how could my young master be so easily bullied? Furthermore, the Long family … is not so easily bullied. Therefore, my master sent experts to follow the person who left. In the end, they followed him all the way to the Cloud Wind Sect.
"Cloud Wind Sect?" Another powerful force had appeared. Liu Changtian didn't know about this force, but he could tell that the other party and the Cloud Wind Sect were very powerful.
"The Cloud Wind Sect is a powerful force in the Guangyun Empire. It is said that there is a Martial God overseeing it. As for whether it is true or not, I don't know."
"However, what is certain is that there are four Martial Saints in the Cloud Wind Sect. Each one of them is very powerful. In the Guangyun Empire, they are ranked among the top."
"Sigh!"
Hearing the man's words, Liu Changtian could only let out a long sigh to ease his current mood. It was fine if there was a Martial God, but there were also four Martial Saints. This was a bit too much for him.
Originally, he wanted to cause trouble. However, Liu Changtian might have to change his mind now. After all, that level of existence was not something he could come into contact with.
Of course, just because he couldn't, it didn't mean that his master, Lin Ray, couldn't. In his impression, Lin Ray was a special existence.
Seeing that Liu Changtian was interested, the man smiled and continued, "The Cloud Wind Sect's Feng Qiuzi thought that it was a Martial Saint level expert. He was the one who asked my young master to come, so …"
With a "plop," the man directly knelt on the ground. He had a pleading expression on his face. "I beg you … I beg you not to kill my young master."
From the beginning to the end, the man didn't plead for him even once. Every time he opened his mouth, he would say something about Long Ming running away. This made Liu Changtian deeply moved.
With such subordinates, what more could he ask for?
"Heh …"
A smile flashed across his face. He had achieved his goal of coming here this time. Guang Yun Empire, Cloud Wind Sect's Feng Qiuzi. Liu Changtian firmly remembered this name in his heart because he was going to tell Lin Ray about it when he returned.
As for Long Ming and the people in front of him, although he had the intention to kill them, Liu Changtian's heart softened when he saw the person in front of him acting like this.
"I beg you …"
"Bam bam …" The sound of heads hitting the ground rang out. This caused Liu Changtian's heart to soften even more.
"I beg you, I beg you …"
"Plop …"
The remaining people all knelt on the ground and began to beg Liu Changtian for mercy. The scene was spectacular.
One had to know that the Long Family was the overlord of the Lian City before. Now, they had become like this. In just a day's time, the sky and earth had turned upside down.
"Sigh!" Letting out a long sigh, he waved his hand and said, "I can spare Long Ming, but you have to come with me to see someone. If that person says that he won't kill you, then you are truly safe."
"This is my limit. After all, you have offended the Lin family too deeply. But …"
"If you can atone for your crimes, then maybe that person will be merciful."
"What do you think?"
"Really?"
Long Ming, who was on the ground, had no other thoughts other than shock. After all, he thought that he was dead for sure. But now, the situation was reversed.
"En!"
Liu Changtian nodded and continued, "What I said may not be accurate. Don't take this as a promise because the final power of life and death is in the hands of that person. So, pray that that person will be in a better mood because of your face. Otherwise …"
After saying that, he shook his head and looked like he was not sure.
However, this already allowed Long Ming and the others to breathe a sigh of relief. After all, it was a good thing that they did not have to die.
"Alright, since the matter is settled, then do as you see fit. I will be staying with the Lin family for a few days."
"Don't even think about running away. Your Long family is in the Guang Yun Empire. If you go missing here, then your Long family will pay with their lives because of your disappearance."
"Remember, I have the strength. Even if Feng Qiuzi is here, it won't matter. Remember."
"Hiss …"
Liu Changtian's words had already proven his power. He was a Martial Honorable. Long Ming never thought that he would actually attack a Martial Honorable in front of him.
Wasn't this like an egg hitting a rock? What a pain in the ass …
"Swish!"
A sound pierced through the air. While everyone was still in a daze, Liu Changtian's figure disappeared from the Long family's residence.
Thousands of miles away in the Divine Valley, Lin Ray was bored to death as he stood at the peak of a mountain as usual. The wind blew and he was in a daze. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Ying 'er, how are you doing now?"
He was homesick. Although this was the place where he was born in this lifetime, he still had a sense of belonging. He couldn't let Lin Ray, who still had his memories, feel warm even though he had family here.
At that moment, he recalled some of the memories he had with Ying and the others.
A smile flashed across Lin Ray's face. Xue Lingtian was dumbfounded. This was the first time he'd seen Lin Ray like this.
… …
When Liu Ying saw that Lin Ray and Ying 'er hadn't appeared at the entrance of the village, he muttered to himself, "Why aren't they back yet? Logically speaking, they should've been back a long time ago!"
However, in the next moment, two people appeared. It was Lin Ray and Ying 'er, whom Liu Ying had been waiting for. Similarly, Lin Ray was stunned when he saw Liu Ying, who was waiting at the entrance.
His eyes were filled with shock and longing, but Lin Ray quickly walked forward step by step. When Liu Ying's silhouette finally appeared in front of Lin Ray's eyes, the shock and longing from before completely disappeared.
His heart clenched and he felt a heart-wrenching pain. Tears instantly flowed out and his footsteps quickened. When he reached Liu Ying's side, he didn't say anything and just brushed past him.
At the same time, when Liu Ying saw Lin Ray's strange behavior and was about to say something, he realized that Lin Ray had already disappeared. Seeing this, Liu Ying's heart secretly panicked, but he quickly reacted.
"Let's go, dinner's ready!"
At that moment, Liu Ying regained his usual coldness and told Lin Ray that he was close to Lin Yun's house.
"Uh …"
Of course, he didn't know about this because he didn't know that when Jin Ling was alive, she had been waiting for her father until she died!
Lin Yun didn't think much of it and walked into the room. When he saw the food on the table, his appetite was whetted and he immediately sat down and started eating.
As for Lin Ray, he brushed past Liu Ying and said, "You're in the room." Then, he took out a jar of wine and started pouring it into his mouth.
"Cough cough …" Perhaps he drank too quickly, he choked and started coughing violently. Suddenly, his chest felt stuffy and blood rushed up.
"Pfft …"
Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood and his originally gloomy face became much rosier.
"Haha, Ling Er, don't you think I'm funny? I know you're already dead, but after seeing that silhouette today, I wish so much that the person waiting for me was you!"
He couldn't hold it in anymore and burst into tears. His tears were like a waterfall as they rushed down, completely drenching his clothes.
However, the wine didn't stop pouring into his mouth. In fact, each mouthful was bigger than the last, as if he couldn't wait to eat the entire jar!
At this moment, a pair of sorrowful eyes were hiding in the dark and watching this scene. The moment he heard Lin Ray's words, he couldn't stop his tears from flowing.
"So … so … so that's how it is, so that's how it is!"
As he spoke, the person in the dark retreated, teleporting away. The only person left in the room was Linley, who was sobbing, by himself.
"If … if I could do it all over again, I'd rather be that young man who lost his memories. Even if life is hard, but … but at least I'd still be by your side to protect you and not be separated by life and death like now!"
"Pa …"
The hand holding the jar of wine fell to the side and the jar was instantly smashed into pieces. As for the wine inside, Lin Ray drank all of it.
"Hm?"
Perhaps it was because the sound in the room was too loud that Lin Yun, who was eating, put down his chopsticks and stood up with a puzzled expression. He went to Lin Ray's room and knocked on the door!
"Knock … knock … knock …"
"Father, are you alright?!"
"…"
There was a moment of silence. After a while, no sound came out. Lin Yun didn't have a chance because he wasn't worried about Lin Ray because he knew his father's cultivation level.
Then, Lin Yun turned around and went back to the dining table and started eating in big bites.
In the room, Lin Ray fell asleep from exhaustion, perhaps because he missed him too much and drank too much wine.
At this moment, Liu Ying was alone in the spirit fields behind Tianfu Village. He was looking at the dozen or so mu of spirit fields in front of him, but he wasn't in the mood to admire them. Instead, he was staring blankly in front of him with a sad expression.
"What … what's wrong with me? Could it be … could it be that I've really fallen for Young Master?"
A voice came out of his mouth, but Liu Ying immediately denied it. "No, it's impossible for me to fall for Young Master. I'm a servant and he's the master. Yes, I … I shouldn't have such thoughts!"
However, after saying this, tears couldn't help but flow out of his eyes and he looked even sadder than before.
"But, but why am I so sad?!"
If Lin Ray was here, he'd definitely be shocked. Liu Ying's actions at this moment clearly showed that there was someone he liked.
Time passed quietly and the three of them spent the night separately. Liu Ying also spent the night asking himself the same question, but he couldn't find an answer. As for Lin Yun, after dinner, he returned to his room to digest what Lin Ray taught him during the day.
As for Linley, he had a very good night as well. He spent the entire night in the dreamland that he had created himself.
Life was still like this. Very quickly, they had lived in Tianfu Village for a year. Ever since that day, Liu Ying felt that his relationship with Lin Ray had become very strange.
It was the same for Lin Ray. After that, Liu Ying also waited at the door for Lin Ray and Lin Yun to come back. This time, Lin Ray was already used to Liu Ying waiting. If one day he suddenly stopped waiting, Lin Ray probably wouldn't be used to it.
At the same time, during this year, other than the outburst of hostility when he taught the Ten Thousand Sword Technique, there were no other movements. Lin Ray also didn't use any of his cultivation. Aside from taking all kinds of spiritual medicine every day, he spent every day very comfortably.
"They're back!"
At this moment, the sky was already dark and the moon was high up in the sky. The silver light seemed to have put on a layer of clothing for the earth, making the scenery especially mesmerizing.
At the entrance of the Lin family's house in Tianfu Village, Liu Ying stood there as usual, waiting for Lin Ray and Lin Yun to come back.
"Mm, let's go! Let's go in and eat! "
Memories were always fascinating. Unfortunately, he only cared about raising his cultivation all these years and neglected Liu Ying's feelings. This was his negligence.
