The Patriarch of the Nine Dragons

Chapter 413 I Want to Ask Two Things!

"Is this the Lingyun Mountain?"

At the foot of the Lingyun Mountain Range, a young man with a bit of a dusty look looked up at the endless mountains, and murmured, as if he was quite emotional.

This young man in rough clothes is naturally Yun Xiao who came from afar. He didn't pay much attention to Xiao Lan who left without saying goodbye. It was just a friend who met by chance, and he may not see each other again in this life.

The Lingyun Mountain in front of him seemed to be a little more majestic than the Yuhu Mountain where the Yuhu Sect was located, but the belief in his heart did not make Yun Xiao flinch, but directly stepped into it.

"Squeak!"

A voice came from above Yunxiao's shoulder, and when he turned his head to look, he saw Huoyunshu Chiyan scratching his ears and cheeks, as if a little impatient.

"Go and play by yourself, pay attention to safety!"

Knowing this guy's temperament, Yun Xiao didn't care too much, it was too boring to follow him, it seemed that Chi Yan couldn't hold back when he saw this huge mountain range.

Yun Xiao knew that Chi Yan had a sensitive nose, and could sense his breath even if he was far away, so he was not afraid of getting lost. If he could make another breakthrough between the mountains and forests, it would be even more likely that he would fall out with Ling Yunzong in the future. A few chances to escape.

Yun Xiao, who had already inquired about the exact location of Ling Yunzong, did not go too far. A few days later, a large building in the mountains in front of him appeared in his sight.

With an unusual mood, Yun Xiao straightened his clothes and strode forward, but when he reached the entrance of Lingyun Sect, he was stopped by two guards.

"Do you have a greeting card?"

One of the guards had a cold expression on his face, and he stretched out his hand without any muddling. The young man in front of him looked extremely strange, and he was dressed in rough clothes, so he didn't look like someone with a background. Of course, he had to question him.

The Lingyun Sect is the largest sect in the Lingtian Empire, and it is an existence that can sit on an equal footing with the Lingtian royal family. This sect headquarters is not just for anyone to enter if they want.

"Goodbye?"

Wen Yan Yunxiao was slightly taken aback, but after staying in Yuhuzong for a while, he quickly realized, shook his head, and said, "I haven't posted a note, please bother me, just say Xuanyue Empire Merchant Yunxiao, please see Sovereign Xu Lingsong!"

"Xuanyue Empire? Merchants?"

Hearing these two words suddenly, the two guards who had been guarding the entrance of Lingyun Sect all year round couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both saw a hint of bewilderment in each other's eyes.

But seeing the young man's seriousness, the two guards thought that the merchant was a big family of the Xuanyue Empire, so they nodded immediately, and one of them hurried forward to report.

After about a stick of incense, the guard walked out quickly with a dignified expression, no longer the negligence just now, but a trace of respect.

"Master Yunxiao, the suzerain is here to invite you!"

A slightly trembling voice came out, the guard hadn't come to his senses at this time, what is the background of this young man, and why even the Suzerain had to meet him in person after he informed him, could it be that the merchant is really a big deal?

Yun Xiao didn't take it seriously, no matter how many nasty things this Ling Yunzong did in secret, but on the surface, Yun Xiao is still a son-in-law with a marriage contract, so he can be regarded as the younger half of Ling Yunzong's master.

This is also why Yun Xiao came to Lingyun Sect with such great fanfare. Such a big sect must want to save face, and he would never kill himself blatantly.

Following the tense looking guard and turning left and right, a large hall finally appeared in front of Yun Xiao. After he took a closer look, the three big characters "Lingyun Temple" on it seemed to be shrouded in clouds and mist, extremely majestic.

Being able to use Lingyun as the hall, it should be able to explain the status of this hall in Lingyunzong, this is also the reason why the guard was surprised.

As far as the guard knew, the Lingyun Hall was usually not open, and it was only when some other great sect masters or distinguished guests from the royal family were being welcomed, that they would entertain guests in the Lingyun Hall.

The young man behind him, who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, might not be enough for the Sovereign to open the Lingyun Temple by himself. So, does this person really have an extraordinary background?

"Master Yunxiao, please come in!"

A place like Lingyun Temple is not something that a guard can easily enter. The guard sent Yun Xiao to the front of the hall, and he opened his mouth respectfully, but he himself did not move.

Seeing this, Yunxiao nodded, ignored the guards, and stepped forward. Immediately afterwards, he felt a strong oppression coming towards his face, and immediately turned his gaze to the top of the hall.

There, a majestic middle-aged man was sitting upright, the aura was obviously from this person, and meeting his eyes, Yun Xiao instantly knew the identity of this person.

"Sect Master Xu?"

Yun Xiao's face remained calm, as if he didn't feel the tyrannical oppression, he walked forward slowly, cupped his fists at the middle-aged man, and asked softly.

"Sure enough, a hero is born as a boy, Yun Xiao, you are very good!"

The person sitting upright at the top was indeed Xu Lingsong, the patriarch of Lingyun Sect. For some reason, Yun Xiao was a little puzzled by such a compliment from him at this moment.

It stands to reason that if the matter of exterminating the family back then was really done by Ling Yunzong, the suzerain lord would never have such an attitude. Could it be that he was thinking wrong? Yu Qian has someone else?

"Yun Xiao, it's a fluke that you survived. I think back when I first heard about the business tragedy, I couldn't sleep at night, it was so painful!"

Xu Lingsong stood up from the seat, and the oppression dissipated. Listening to his tone, he really seemed to be sighing at the tragedy of the merchant's destruction.

However, Yun Xiao is the reincarnation of the soul of God of War Long Xiao, not an ordinary boy in Qianlong Continent. The more Xu Lingsong is like this, the more he feels that things will never be so simple.

"Sect Master Xu, I have two matters to inquire about during my visit. I wonder if I can tell you the truth?"

Yun Xiao obviously didn't have the heart to reminisce about the past, and with just one sentence, he changed the topic to a certain level, causing Xu Lingsong's eyes to flash an imperceptible light.

"Tell me, as long as you know what Uncle Xu knows, you will know everything and say everything!"

The light in Xu Lingsong's eyes disappeared in a flash, and was replaced by a warm color, as if he was really a kind elder, waiting to answer the younger generation's questions.

Yun Xiao's expression didn't change, he saw that he flipped his right hand, and a half-shaped jade pendant appeared in his palm out of nowhere, and he heard him ask: "Does Sect Master Xu still know this half jade pendant?"

This half of the jade pendant was naturally the engagement token that Shang Li gave to Yun Xiao back then. It was personally witnessed by the previous suzerain of Lingyun Sect and Shang Li's father, Yun Xiao's grandfather.

"Hehe, how could I not know this thing, Hongzhuang also has half of it!"

A smile appeared on Xu Lingsong's face, and he didn't know what was really going on in his heart. In short, he couldn't tell the slightest clue from what he said.

"Since Sect Master Xu knows this thing, there is no need for Yun Xiao to explain the meaning it represents. The first thing I want to ask..."

Seeing that Xu Lingsong didn't deny it, Yun Xiao asked, "More than two years ago, someone claimed to be entrusted by Ling Yunzong to go to the merchants in Yuebow City, and wanted to cancel the marriage. , do you know it or not?"

After Yun's joke was over, his eyes stared at the Sect Master Lingyun for a moment. The reason why he asked each other so directly was because he wanted to catch the other party by surprise. A clue.

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

Unexpectedly, Xu Lingsong only had a look of surprise on his face, which immediately turned into anger, stretched out his hand, and slapped the table next to him hard, causing the tea to splash instantly.

"This is a marriage made by my father and grandfather Ling. Who dares to be so bold as to divorce us without telling us?"

Xu Lingsong didn't seem to be pretending at all, seeing that his face was livid with anger, he said bitterly: "Nephew Yun Xiao, don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter and give you a satisfactory explanation!"

Yun Xiao was unmoved at all, and said with a half-smile: "Actually, this matter is nothing. After all, my meridians have been broken and my pulse energy has been exhausted. How can I marry the majestic daughter of Sect Master Lingyun?" What about a trash?"

These few words were also true, but when they said them face to face, no matter how thick-skinned Xu Lingsong was, he blushed and quickly concealed it, the anger on his face seemed to be a little more intense.

"Yun Xiao, who do you think Uncle Xu is? Not to mention the loss of pulse, even if all limbs are severed, this marriage contract cannot be voided!"

The words filled with righteous indignation made De Yunxiao a little confused. If this Sect Master Xu was not really so angry, but pretended to be so angry, then his city mansion might really be described as terrifying.

"My father and Grandfather Ling had a life-and-death relationship back then, and the words 'Li Feng subdues evil spirits, draws his sword and laughs at red makeup' was once a good story, but it is a pity that Grandfather Ling died early, but I, Ling Yunzong, will never break my promise !"

The more Xu Lingsong spoke, the more angry he seemed to be expressing a state of mind. If an outsider who didn't know the inside story heard about it, he might really be deceived by him.

It's just that Yun Xiao has his own decision in his heart, and he won't believe it easily, but this Sect Master Xu doesn't admit it, and he has no choice but to let it go for the time being.

"One more thing, Yun Xiao wants to ask Sect Master Xu!"

Wei Yi pondered for a moment, Yun Xiao was not entangled in the marriage contract, his eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he asked: "I wonder if the great elder Yu Qian of the Guizong is here, can I let my nephew meet?"

The words fell, and Yun Xiao's eyes fixed on the Sect Master Lingyun once again. Compared with the irrelevant marriage contract, perhaps the massacre of the merchant's family, the death of his mother and sister, was the reason why Yun Xiao came to Lingyun Sect alone this time. The real purpose!

But this time, Xu Lingsong's face finally twitched lightly. Seeing this small gesture in Yun Xiao's eyes, his heart sank.
