Chapter 3731 Bad News

Linghu Ren Jie looked at Duan Ling Tian solemnly and said, “Duan Ling Tian, from today onward, it’s best if you don’t reveal your Sword Dao at the initial stage. Otherwise, I’m afraid there’d be those who want to kill

you out of jealousy. In the Eastern Ridge Mansion, I’ve not heard of anyone who has comprehended any of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth to the initial stage. At most, they had comprehended it to the rudimentary

stage. Naturally, there might be those who live in seclusion who have comprehended them to the initial stage. In any case, my point is very few people, if any, comprehended the Daos of Heaven and Earth to the initial

stage in the Eastern Ridge Mansion.”

Duan Ling Tian was taken aback upon hearing Linghu Ren Jie’s words. Needless to say, he knew better than to recklessly reveal his Sword Dao. Otherwise, he would not have just displayed his Sword Dao at the

rudimentary stage while he was in the Hidden Fog Sect. However, he was surprised by Linghu Ren Jie’s concern and intention to protect him despite having just met each other. He could not help but feel moved.

The solemn expression on Linghu Ren Jie’s face was replaced with a smile as he continued to say, “Duan Ling Tian, let me know when you plan to return to the Hidden Fog Sect. I’ll ask Supreme Elder Heng and

Supreme Elder Huan to escort you back to the sect. With them around, even if the four Supreme Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect join forces, they still won’t be able to make you stay.”

Linghu Ren Jie was clearly very confident.

Supreme Elder Heng and Supreme Elder Huan were two of three Supreme Elders in the Linghu clan. The two supreme elders were twins, and their names were Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan. Their strength was

comparable to any of the four Supreme Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect. If they joined forces, they could take on three Supreme Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect. Needless to say, it would not be a problem for the duo to

escape even if the four Supreme Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect joined forces.

“Thank you, Clan Leader Linghu!” Duan Ling Tian bowed to express his gratitude. Then, he said solemnly, “After dealing with some matters, I’ll return to the Linghu clan with Supreme Elder Heng and Supreme Elder

Huan. As long as the Linghu clan doesn’t betray me, I promise I will never forget this favor!”

Duan Ling Tian knew that the reason Linghu Ren Jie was so willing to help was in part due to his talent. Even if he did not stay in the Linghu clan for long, it would be greatly beneficial to the clan if he joined the Linghu

clan’s faction in the Flying Dragon Sect.

“I’m glad to hear this,” Linghu Ren Jie said with a smile.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at Linghu Yun as though he had just recalled something and asked, “Fourth Young Master, is there any news from Elder Xuan?”

Upon hearing this question, Linghu Ren Jie and Linghu Jun looked at Linghu Yun curiously.

Linghu Yun smiled wryly as he said, “Duan Ling Tian, I received news from Grandpa Xuan while you were sparring with my third brother.”

As long as the owner of the Little World did not deliberately seal it, unlike independent realms, communication with the outside world would remain open.

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up as he asked eagerly, “Should we head over there now?”

“1... I’m afraid we can’t do that for now,” Linghu Yun said with a bitter smile, “I have bad news for you...”

Duan Ling Tian was stunned.

“When Grandpa Xuan met Elder Qing Ze, he found out that my aunt had brought my cousin out of the estate two days ago. I’ve already sent a message to my aunt, but I have yet to receive a reply from her. There’s a

possibility she might have left the Profound Energy Land. As for Cousin Chu Yin, I can’t contact her since I don’t have her Soul Pearl,” Linghu Yun explained.

Linghu Ren Jie and Linghu Jun looked at Duan Ling Tian with strange gazes upon hearing Linghu Yun’s words. They could not help but wonder if Duan Ling Tian’s willingness to join the Linghu clan was due to Linghu

Chu Yin. After all, they had heard about the incident in King Descending City where Duan Ling Tian had stopped Linghu Chu Yin’s carriage in the middle of the street. They had been surprised that even an outstanding

disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect like Duan Ling Tian was entranced by Linghu Chu Yin’s beauty.

Hence, Linghu Jun said with a sigh, “Duan Ling Tian, you should listen to my advice and give up. My aunt will never allow my cousin to marry. No one, not even my father or the ancestor of the clan, can change her

mind regarding this matter.”

Linghu Ren Jie nodded. “That’s right. Duan Ling Tian, there are many beauties in our clan. Although they’re not as beautiful as my niece, they’re still very beautiful. In fact, my seventh daughter is only slightly lacking

compared to my niece. If you’re willing, you can meet her first before you decide if you want to marry her.”

Linghu Ren Jie’s eyes brightened when he thought about the possibility of Duan Ling Tian becoming his son-in-law.

Before Duan Ling Tian could speak, Linghu Yun explained, “Father, third brother, you’ve misunderstood Duan Ling Tian.”

After Linghu Yun explained everything to Linghu Ren Jie and Linghu Jun, the duo finally understood what was going on.

Duan Ling Tian looked at Linghu Ren Jie hopefully as he asked, “Clan Leader Linghu, can you try contacting your sister?”

“Let me try...” Linghu Ren Jie nodded before sending a message to his sister through her Soul Pearl.

Alas, there was no response at all.

“Yun’er might be right. My sister and my niece might have left the Profound Energy Land,” Linghu Ren Jie said as he shook his head.

Duan Ling Tian was naturally disappointed. Then, after a moment, he asked Linghu Ren Jie, “Clan Leader Linghu, do you know for certain if Linghu Chu Yin is your sister’s biological daughter?”

Although Linghu Yun did not know this, Duan Ling Tian thought that Linghu Ren Jie might know this.

Linghu Ren Jie looked slightly embarrassed upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s question. He said, “To be honest, I’ve no idea at all. My second sister has been unrestrained and rebellious since she was young. She was hardly

at home. In fact, she left the clan and the Profound Energy Land and stayed in the Divine Offering Land for tens of thousands of years. She only returned to the clan recently. Although I did ask her a few times if Linghu

Chu Yin is her biological daughter, she didn’t give me an answer. She looked distracted whenever the matter was brought out. I thought it wasn’t convenient for her to answer the question so I didn’t bring the matter

up again.”

Duan Ling Tian continued to ask, “Did you interact much with Linghu Chu Yin? Did it seem to you like she suffers from memory loss?”

“It didn’t seem like it to me. However, to be fair, I didn’t pay much attention to it.” Linghu Ren Jie shook his head. “After listening to Yun’er’s explanation, I tried to recall the times I interacted with my niece. I have to say

not only does my niece not resemble my sister, but their temperaments and personalities are completely different. When I spoke to my niece, her reactions were somewhat slow as well. At that time, I thought she was

distracted so I didn’t think much about it. However, when I thought about it again, perhaps, she had suffered from some head injuries that caused her reaction to be slower. Hence, it’s not impossible for her to suffer

from memory loss.”

Duan Ling Tian’s heart raced in his chest when he heard Linghu Ren Jie’s words. He said anxiously, “Based on what you said, I think it’s highly possible that Linghu Chu Yin is my long-lost wife. Is it possible for you to

continue trying to contact your sister? I really want to meet Linghu Chu Yin to confirm her identity. I’ll definitely repay your kindness in the future!”

“Don’t worry. I’ll help you regarding this matter,” Linghu Ren Jie said with a nod.

Upon hearing this, Linghu Yun smiled bitterly. “Duan Ling Tian, it seems like you won’t owe me any favor now. However, can you still record the story of the Eastern Emperor in a Memory Jade Talisman for me?”

“Of course!” Duan Ling Tian said. After all, this was nothing to him. It would not take long for him to record the story of the Eastern Emperor in a Memory Jade Talisman.

“Thank you!” Linghu Yun said with a smile.

“T’ll hand you the Memory Jade Talisman in two days,” Duan Ling Tian said. Then, he looked at Linghu Ren Jie before he continued to say, “Clan Leader Linghu, I plan to return to the Hidden Fog Sect in three days. Can

you please arrange this with Supreme Elder Heng and Supreme Elder Huan?”

If there was no way for him to survive in the Hidden Fog Sect, Duan Ling Tian was determined to join the Linghu clan. It did not matter to him even if he was labeled a traitor by the Hidden Fog Sect. Moreover, the

Linghu clan clearly valued him more than the Hidden Fog Sect did. Most importantly, after joining the Linghu clan, it would be easier for him to approach Linghu Chu Yin once she returned to the clan. Based on

everything he had learned, he thought there was a high chance that Linghu Chu Yin was Ke’er. He only needed to meet her to verify it. .
