However, just as Ling Yun was about to grab Nangong Ying'er by the shoulders to take her away, Xuanyuan Chang'er suddenly shouted at him. "Wait a minute! That woman is the Matriarch of the Nangong Clan, so you should also hand her over to us."

Feng Ruxue sighed after hearing that, for Xuanyuan Chang'er was too rash and ignorant about the matter between Ling Yun and Nangong Ying'er, and she was sure that he would not hand her over to anyone.

Sure enough, Ling Yun turned his head and glared fiercely at Xuanyuan Chang'er. "Do you have the right to say that?"

"You-"

"Hey, you better use your brains wisely; you guys weren't capable at finding out where the people from the Nangong Clan were hiding before, remember?" Ling Yun interrupted Xuanyuan Chang'er fiercely. "Would you be able to capture them if I didn't tell you everything? And now you want to prevent me from taking this woman away?"

"You-"

Xuanyuan Xue'er immediately waved her hand to stop her sister, and she then said to Ling Yun. "You can take Nangong Ying'er away with you, but at least force her to tell us the location of the Hundred Flower Sect, so we can release the people they captured before."

"See? Your sister is much smarter than you." Instead, Ling Yun mocked Xuanyuan Chang'er, infuriating her incredibly, and he then replied to Xuanyuan Xue'er. "If you can force her to say the location of the sect, then you can try it, for I can't do it."

Nangong Ying'er gritted her teeth after listening to their conversation, for she was afraid that if Xuanyuan Xue'er managed to read her memories, especially since it would be the downfall of her sect, and she didn't want that to happen to Lu Wan'er and the others.

Xuanyuan Xue'er nodded to Ling Yun, walked to Nangong Ying'er, and touched her forehead. However, when she tried to read her memories, she was pushed back by something that came out from inside her.

Not only were those people shocked by that, but even Nangong Ying'er herself was shocked by it, and she glanced at Ling Yun. 'What has this bastard done? How could he block Xuanyuan Xue'er from reading my memories?'

However, only one person was not surprised by that, for Feng Ruxue could see Ling Xi circling above Nangong Ying'er's head, and she smiled in satisfaction at their expressions.

In fact, Ling Xi had already read Nangong Ying'er's memories from the beginning, and she knew that Xuanyuan Xue'er could also read them, so she had purposely blocked her from doing so.

Since the women from the Hundred Flower Sect would be of great use to Ling Yun, so Ling Xi didn't want them to fall into the hands of other cultivators.

"What happened, Xue'er?" Long Wei asked with a look of disbelief.

Xuanyuan Xue'er sighed softly and answered him. "Her memories are protected by something, and it's preventing me from reading them."

"What?" Xuanyuan Chang'er exclaimed loudly and asked her sister. "Can you really not read that woman's memories, Big Sis? Then how are we supposed to find the people they kidnapped?"

"Sigh." Long Wei sighed upon hearing that. "Apparently, we can only wait to save them, especially since none of us can read memories like Xue'er."

On the other hand, Xuanyuan Xue'er kept looking at Ling Yun, for she felt suspicious that he had prevented her from doing that. However, she couldn't sense the movement of the Qi in his body, so she couldn't prove her suspicions. "Forget it; we will definitely manage to locate that sect one day."

"Let's bring people from the Nangong Clan over to our clan, but when will we hold a meeting to determine their fate?" Feng Ruxue spoke to them.

Xuanyuan Xue'er immediately answered her. "In two days, we will gather at the Cultivator Peak and determine their fate there."

"That's good; it's a suitable place to do that." Feng Ruxue replied with an affirmative nod, and she then ordered Feng Qingmeng and the others to take some of the people from the Nangong Clan away.

Xuanyuan Xue'er and Long Wei also did the same; those people immediately followed their leader's orders. Yet, they didn't immediately follow their people.

"Hey, give me the key to the Stone Gate." Ling Yun said as he extended his hand to Nangong Ying'er, surprising Long Wei and the others, and they did not expect to need a key to open the gate.

Ling Yun nodded in understanding after Nangong Ying'er explained how to activate the gate using the key, and he gave it to Long Wei; He chose him because he did not know Xuanyuan Xue'er, and he was also irritated by Xuanyuan Chang'er's previous behavior.

"Tch." Xuanyuan Chang'er gritted her teeth at that, but her big sister immediately sent a sound transmission to her and asked her to be quiet.

In fact, Xuanyuan Xue'er didn't feel afraid to face Ling Yun, but her instincts told her something was off, so she chose to hold back for now.

After that, the Xuanyuan Sisters bid farewell to them, and they immediately flew away, following the people from their clans.

Suddenly, Xiao Xi moved to Ling Yun's side, and her eyes moved up and down, observing him. "Hehe, what a young man you are, and I want you to be my son-in-law."

Ling Yun was stunned to hear that and turned to Long Yuyi, but Feng Ruxue immediately said to him. "You recognized the wrong person; that girl is Long Yuyi, the daughter of He Yi. Meanwhile, the woman before you is Xiao Xi, Long Qiu's mother."

"I see." Ling Yun nodded in understanding and said to Xiao Xi. "I'm sorry I didn't recognize you, Aunt Xiao."

Xiao Xi giggled hearing that, but she liked Ling Yun's attitude. Even though he looked so stern and scary before, he also respects people who don't bother him. "It's okay, so are you willing to be my son-in-law? Moreover, you've often dual-cultivated with my daughter, right? Don't you want to be responsible for her?"

Feng Ruxue chuckled at Xiao Xi's question but wasn't surprised to see her act like that. After all, she loved her only daughter very much, and Ling Yun was indeed the best man for Long Qiu.

Ling Yun scratched his head and answered her. "I'm sorry, but I don't have an answer for that right now, Aunt Xiao. Even though I've dual cultivated with Qiu'er many times, she has no feelings for me, and I won't take a woman who doesn't have feelings for me as my wife."

"Sigh." Xiao Xi sighed heavily and shook her head after hearing that. "My daughter is foolish, it's obvious that there is such an outstanding man by her side, but she always acts like that."

Ling Yun smiled wryly, seeing Xiao Xi's expression, for she looked so hopeful of taking him as her son-in-law; he said again. "Aunt Xiao, you don't need to think about that now, we are all cultivators, and our lifespans are extremely long. If Qiu'er falls in love with me one day, I will take her as my wife. However, I will have to disappoint you if she never falls in love with me."

Xiao Xi could only nod helplessly, and she thought of a way for her daughter to fall in love with Ling Yun. 'Tch! That stupid daughter of mine! I'll lock her up and lecture her when she returns to the clan!'

Seeing that, Long Wei approached them and patted his second wife on the shoulder. "Ling Yun is right, Xi'er. Although I also want Qiu'er to marry quickly, we cannot force our will on her and let time tell our daughter's relationship with him."

"Sister Xi, their words are true, and we still have a long life span. Let's let Qiu'er take care of their relationship by herself, and we as parents can only pray for their relationship to be true." Yu Die said as she looked at Ling Yun, and she also liked his character. 'Sigh. Unfortunately, I only have a son; I want him to be my son-in-law if I also have a daughter.'

Xiao Xi nodded to them, but her mind was still contemplating ways to convince Long Qiu that she could get closer to Ling Yun; only then would he become her son-in-law.

"Little Brother Yun, I have wanted to see you for a long time, and we can finally meet now." Long Zhan said as he looked at him.

On the other hand, Long Yuyi did not say anything, but her eyes stayed on Ling Yun's handsome face. However, she didn't look like an infatuated girl, but she did seem very curious about him.

Yu Die then said to him. "Long Zhan is my son and Qiu'er's big brother."

"I see." Ling Yun then greeted Long Zhan. "Nice to meet you, Brother Zhan. However, I can't stay here too long, for I have an urgent matter that I need to attend to as soon as possible."

"Do you want to ambush Mo Tian now?" Feng Ruxue asked him, surprising Long Wei and the others.

Ling Yun nodded to her. "Mo Tian has almost arrived at the meeting place, so I have to go there asap to capture him."

"In that case, I will come with you, Ling Yun." Long Yuyi, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up. Before Ling Yun interrupted her, she immediately continued. "Mo Tian killed my mother, so I want to kill him with my hands."
