Chapter 252 There are still reasons she has to dig out behind this.
Chapter 252 There are still reasons she has to dig out behind this.
Hei Ziming couldn't help but shudder.
He felt the pain all over his body getting worse.
The horrific scenes of those he tortured to death flashed before his eyes one by one.
But he didn't want to die. He had finally reached the Tribulation Transcending stage and still had plenty of lifespan to enjoy. He had a sect and a family that treated him with great respect. He only needed to give a simple order, and countless people would send him the best resources.
He doesn't want to die!
Hei Ziming endured the pain, prostrated himself on the ground, and kowtowed, begging for mercy.
He was willing to be an inside agent for the Qingyun Sect, only asking that the Qingyun Sect spare him.
Zhong Lingxin looked at it coldly.
Having lost both her parents in her previous life, and having lived with her grandmother, she learned that being merciful to the enemy is the greatest cruelty one can inflict on oneself.
Spare him!
How can it be!
She wanted everyone on the Immortal Spirit Continent to know that although she, Zhong Lingxin, was only a Nascent Soul cultivator, anyone who offended her would pay the price.
Let's see who dares to threaten her to hand over the Long family members in the future.
As Hei Ziming cried out in pain and begged for mercy, he slowly collapsed to the ground, his entire body turning into a pool of black water.
Inside the trapping formation, the black poisonous gas completely dissipated, purified cleanly by the Black Family.
Zhong Lingxin couldn't help but look up at the sky.
This cunning Heavenly Dao is actually quite responsible, isn't he?
It was getting bright outside.
Zhong Lingxin deactivated the trapping and killing formation, set a large fire on the Hei family, and quickly left while everyone was watching the fire.
At the same time, she sent a message to An Yin and Huo Jun, telling them that they could retreat.
The news of the destruction of the Hei family of the Taixu Sect reached the Qingyun Sect even faster than Zhong Lingxin returned to her sect.
The two elders from the back mountain, who had been drinking tea with Sect Leader Lu for a month, looked up at him at the same time and unceremoniously ordered him to roast a whole lamb for them to enjoy.
After drinking tea for a month straight, they could practically spit out tea leaves from their mouths.
Sect Leader Lu chuckled.
Do it!
He had other matters to attend to, so he couldn't join the two elders for roasted mutton.
The mole discovered recently should be dealt with!
Zhong Lingxin returned to the cool place.
Zhong Muyuan was already able to walk a few steps slowly in the Qingliang Hall.
Zhong Muyun was supporting him while scolding him.
After hearing that the sect had imprisoned Liu Wanqiu in a dark dungeon and had not released her, and recalling Liu Wanqiu's repeated invitations, both overt and covert, to take him to the market, Zhong Muyuan understood everything.
He deeply regretted that his will was not strong enough. He should have been like Brother Muyun and resolutely cut off all contact with Liu Wanqiu once he realized she was no good, instead of just showing off and greeting her when they met.
If I had ignored her when I saw her, this whole mess wouldn't have happened.
My sister must have been very angry and anxious lately.
It's all my fault. I'm such a grown-up, and my older sister still has to worry about me.
Zhong Lingxin overheard the conversation between her brother and younger brother but didn't say anything.
Zhong Muyuan hurriedly came over and began a lengthy self-criticism.
Then, he couldn't help but ask the question that was on his mind: "Sister, I heard that Hei Ziming of the Hei family died, and the Hei family is gone too."
Zhong Lingxin nodded and replied with only one word: "Mm!"
Zhong Muyun and Zhong Muyuan looked at each other again and again.
Did the older sister (younger sister) dismiss them with just one word?
Could it be that the older (younger) sister did this?
There are too many rumors, and the person who has had the most contact with Hei Ziming during this period is actually his older sister (younger sister).
Zhong Lingxin ignored them, took out two storage bags and gave them to them, instructing them to cultivate when they should and to go into seclusion when they should.
After thinking for a moment, she said to Zhong Muyun, "Brother Muyun, I've almost collected all the spiritual herbs needed to reshape your dantian. I'll ask Uncle Yi to refine a Restoration Pill for you, which should be able to repair your dantian. I originally wanted to find you a piece of Ice Spirit Marrow, but someone else beat me to it."
Zhong Muyun was overjoyed.
Zhong Muyuan also happily congratulated him.
Zhong Lingxin paid no attention to the turmoil in the Immortal Spirit Continent.
She was organizing some documents.
Hei Ziming was executed, but two cultivators from the Lingyun Sect, Yu Zhenghao and Yu Zhengming, are still living freely.
After hearing that Hei Ziming had died silently, they realized that it was related to the Qingyun Sect.
Now they've gone into hiding, so hidden that neither the Dark Moon Palace nor Huo Jun can find them.
Zhong Lingxin was standing in front of the map, looking at the place where they had appeared half a month ago: Peach Blossom City.
Peach Blossom City is a cultivation city located right next to the Azure Cloud Sect of the Lingyun Sect.
The city is not large; it can be considered a medium-sized cultivation city.
Yu Zhenghao and Yu Zhengming are brothers who were taken in as disciples by the Lingyun Sect from a small mountain village.
Currently, one is at the early stage of the Integration Realm, and the other is at the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. They are each serving under two Mahayana cultivators of the Lingyun Sect.
Zhong Lingxin tapped her fingers lightly on the tea table, unable to understand why these two were suddenly targeting her.
Neither Yu Zhenghao nor Yu Zhengming had families or wives; they were both focused solely on cultivation.
If the two hadn't come out against Zhong Lingxin this time, Zhong Lingxin's impression of them might have been limited to the information they provided.
Logically speaking, she and these two people had no direct conflict of interest, and even if the Long family members were captured, the benefits they could share would not be significant.
There was really no reason for the two of them to jump out and be at the forefront to oppose her.
It seems there's a reason she had to dig out behind this.
Zhong Lingxin sent a message to An Yin, expressing her thoughts.
The Dark Moon Palace was founded by Yu Wuqing, who was once a member of the Lingyun Sect.
Therefore, the Dark Moon Palace has relatively more information about the Lingyun Sect.
An Yin was also puzzled by this matter and was chatting with Yu Huan Yan.
After pondering for a long time, Yu Huanyan offered a piece of information that wasn't exactly news: It's said that when Yu Zhenghao first arrived at the Lingyun Sect, he was just an outer disciple. Once, during a training expedition, Yu Zhenghao was injured by a demonic beast, and it was a cousin from the Liu family who saved him. It's also rumored that Yu Zhenghao and the cousin fell in love afterward. Unfortunately, Yu Zhenghao lacked family influence, and the Liu family disapproved of the marriage, instead marrying the cousin off to the Wen family, another powerful family within the Lingyun Sect.
An Yin immediately thought of Wen Xupeng, whom Zhong Lingxin had killed in the sect challenge.
Soon, a message reached An Yin: Wang Wanyu, the cousin of the Liu family, had indeed married into the Wen family, where Wen Xupeng lived. The information also showed that Wang Wanyu was not happy in the Wen family; her so-called Daoist partner rarely appeared with her, and one concubine after another was being brought into the family.
The concubines had given birth to several children, and she, the legal wife, increasingly lost her status at home.
The Liu family only needs to have interests in common with the Wen family and be able to advance and retreat together.
This also made her almost invisible in the Wen family, living in a secluded courtyard of the family and rarely coming out.
The information also shows that three years ago, Wang Wanyu suddenly emerged from seclusion and had a chance encounter with Yu Zhenghao.
Next, Yu Zhenghao and Yu Zhengming suddenly jumped out to compete for the Long family.
