Chapter 393: Ling Yun’s Impact!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhuang Meifeng was definitely an important person in this matter. Once she returned to the Zhuang residence, she was immediately brought to Sun Tianbiao.

Standing quietly in front of Sun Tianbiao and the others, her feelings were complicated. Even though her eyes were filled with determination, her expression remained calm and peaceful.

The main reason she felt like her feelings were in a mess was because of her worry and yearning for Ling Yun. Her eyes were filled with determination as she had already considered the worst possible scenario, preparing herself for it. As for her expression remaining calm, it was because of her absolute trust toward Ling Yun!

Once Zhuang Meifeng appeared, she gave Sun Tianbiao and the three other Xiantian Realm experts a shock. Especially Priestess Desireless from the Tranquil Sect who was at Xiantian Realm Level Two, her eyes immediately lit up when she saw her!

This was because of Zhuang Meifeng’s potential for cultivation!

All four Xiantian Realm experts could tell that Zhuang Meifeng’s body had gone through the internal cleansing, turning into a completely new body. If she had a chance to begin cultivation, her progress would definitely be frightening. In the future, her potential would definitely surpa.s.s the realms that they were currently at!

Priestess Desireless didn’t just see this. Amongst the four, the other three were experts at Xiantian Realm Level One, but she was an expert at Xiantian Realm Level Two. She was at the highest level, and her own Tranquil Technique was at the highest minor realm.

Through Zhuang Meifeng’s calm expression and determined gaze, Priestess Desireless could feel the strength of her heart!

In Priestess Desireless’s eyes, if she had to choose a candidate to succeed the monastery in future, Zhuang Meifeng would be the most suitable person for it.

After Priestess Desireless descended from the monastery, she failed to find Priestess Heartless, the Emperor Brush, or the Earth Emperor’s Book. However, she discovered the most suitable successor for cultivating the Tranquil Technique. Amidst her joy, she nearly broke out of her own technique.

However, Sun Tianbiao didn’t feel the same. When he met Zhuang Meifeng before, her potential was good then. At his level, Sun Tianbiao could tell that Zhuang Meifeng had just been an ordinary person with a stunning appearance and slightly more potential for cultivation.

On top of that, Zhuang Meifeng’s body had already matured because she was over eighteen. Even if she had a chance to cultivate her potential, it would have been difficult for her to reach Houtian Realm Level Seven, even if she was given cultivation pills every day.

As her energy center and meridians had already stabilized, they were no longer suited for cultivation. Unless an expert at Xiantian Realm Level Seven or above was willing to offer their own Xiantian Qi, supplement her with a tremendous amount of divine pills, and help her undergo a complete round of internal cleansing, there was no way she could have overcome that situation.

Other than using such a method, Sun Tianbiao couldn’t think of any other way.

However, what were the odds of one meeting an expert at Xiantian Realm Level Seven out of the blue? On top of that, even if she really met such an expert, would this person really be willing to offer his Xiantian True Qi that he had painstakingly cultivated? Beyond that, this person even had to sacrifice pills that were at the price of cities, just for an ordinary person to go through the internal cleansing.

In any case, if one had to pay such a huge price, that would have been sufficient for three Houtian Realm Level Nine experts to safely breakthrough to the Xiantian Realm!

This was practically a case of throwing away a watermelon to pick up a sesame seed. There was no one in this world who would do such a foolish and crazy thing.

Even so, such a ridiculous thing had happened in front of Sun Tianbiao’s eyes. Zhuang Meifeng had indeed gone through internal cleansing, creating a new body. Right now, her cultivation potential was greater than any other!

In that case, there was only one possibility. The expert that helped Zhuang Meifeng perform an internal cleansing had to have abilities far beyond a Xiantian Realm Level Seven expert. It was a person who would be completely unaffected by that little bit of Xiantian Qi he had to sacrifice. Furthermore, the expert that did such a thing for Zhuang Meifeng was immensely strong. Doing this for Zhuang Meifeng was as simple as lifting a finger!

The thought left Sun Tianbiao in a stupor. Sighing in his heart, he knew that he had run into a very troubling matter.

If an expert far stronger than a Xiantian Realm Level Seven was protecting the Zhuang Family from the shadows, then he, who was oppressing the Zhuang Family, was definitely digging his own grave!

If an expert at Xiantian Realm Level Seven decided to launch an attack to retaliate against the Sun Family, he had the power to easily wipe out the entire Sun Family on a whim.

Sun Tianbiao’s determination in his heart faltered significantly. He was not afraid of Zhuang Meifeng, but he was definitely afraid of that top-tier expert that had performed the internal cleansing for Zhuang Meifeng!

Which top-tier expert could have done that for her? No matter how hard he thought, Sun Tianbiao couldn’t figure it out.

Sun Tianbiao didn’t know that this “top-tier expert” he was trying to figure out was precisely Ling Yun, whom he was investigating with all his might. If he found out, his blood pressure would have definitely risen, and he would have vomited blood.

When the Emperor Brush first made its appearance, Xiantian True Qi had begun flowing toward it. At the time, Ling Yun’s abilities had reached Qi Cultivation Level Nine, and his abilities were at Xiantian Realm Level Nine. Not only did he possess unlimited Xiantian True Qi and the Five Elemental Vessel Seal, but he was also able to perform internal cleansing on a few people effortlessly.

Sun Tianbiao’s judgment wasn’t wrong at all. If Ling Yun had gone to the Sun Family at the time, he wouldn’t have had to make a move on his own now. Just by using the Mystical Dragon Howl with all of his power, he would have been able to kill everyone in the Sun Family with just its shockwaves!

On the other hand, using his divine sense to wipe each individual’s memory in different time frames was far more difficult than killing a group of people!

But what Sun Tianbiao didn’t expect was that Ling Yun’s ability-spike was only temporary. He didn’t spend more than six hours in that form before returning to his original level.

“Sun Tianbiao, look at this first!” Zhuang Meifeng stood there quietly for a while before she pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to Sun Tianbiao.

Sun Tianbiao and Ling Yun were already sworn enemies. Naturally, Zhuang Meifeng wouldn’t offer any formalities toward him and called him by name.

Hearing this, Sun Tianbiao felt a pang of irritation, but his facial expression didn’t display any form of anger. Lifting his hand to take the piece of paper, he simply scanned through it quickly.

This was obviously a declaration of divorce that was hand-written by Niu Fenjiao.

“This was written on Friday night. She publicly asked for a divorce and wrote this as proof. Right now, myself, the Zhuang Family, and your Sun Family no longer have any relation with one another!”

Zhuang Meifeng’s expression was cold, and her tone was calm as she said this plainly.

Recalling the day when Ling Yun pulled out all the stops to fight to the death with Sun Family’s four great experts in order to force Niu Fenjiao to withdraw her engagement, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of sweet pride for him.

“Sun Tianbiao, this is proof of cancellation of the engagement. Are you going to admit it or not?” Zhuang Meifeng’s beautiful eyes stared straight at Sun Tianbiao as she asked.

Zhuang Meifeng had been through a life-and-death situation. Right now, she wasn’t even afraid of death. Naturally, she didn’t consider Sun Tianbiao to be a threat. Furthermore, after knowing Ling Yun for such a long time, she knew that Ling Yun was a person who refused to suffer losses in any situation. She didn’t want to bring any shame to Ling Yun, even if she were in the face of the powerful Sun Family!

Sun Tianbiao remained silent. As if he were a scarecrow, he stared at the paper in his hands for a while before finally nodding. “I’ll acknowledge this. Your engagement with Sun Xing is officially withdrawn!”

Hearing Sun Tianbiao acknowledge this, Zhuang Meifeng quietly celebrated in her heart. Her first move after returning to Zhuang Family was a success!

The Chinese treasured their principles. Zhuang Meifeng’s engagement with Sun Xing had always been a p.r.i.c.k in her heart. Although Sun Xing had already disappeared to ashes and Ling Yun didn’t care about such a pseudo-engagement, Zhuang Meifeng cared!

She wanted to be engaged to Ling Yun without any attachments. There was no way she could let Ling Yun down in any way, be it life or death!

Zhuang Meifeng was so excited that she didn’t even think about why Sun Tianbiao would have agreed to cancel their engagement and why he did it so readily!

Victoriously, Zhuang Meifeng pressed on as she said, “Since the engagement has been canceled, please release my family and return their freedom to them!”

Sun Tianbiao had stirred a large commotion on his arrival to Qingshui City, enjoying fame and power. He didn’t expect that with Zhuang Meifeng’s appearance, she would be able to suppress him. Under her continuous pressure, his expression was terrible, but he had no choice but to hold back!

He was fooled by his own imagination. The thought of the “top-tier expert above Xiantian Realm Level Seven” simply terrified him!

With her aggressive stance, Sun Tianbiao was unsure if that top-tier expert was just outside the door. With an expert with that kind of ability and power, even if he had suddenly appeared behind his back, Sun Tianbiao wouldn’t be able to notice.

However, even though he was afraid, Sun Tianbiao was the representative of the Sun Family. He had to investigate the whereabouts of his wife and kid clearly. Hence, he asked what he needed to know.

“I didn’t capture your family. They’re doing well right now, but I have to investigate clearly where the people from my Sun Family are, so I temporarily restricted their freedom.”

Sun Tianbiao said such a thing first, seemingly to rea.s.sure Zhuang Meifeng. However, he was saying this for the expert that was secretly protecting Zhuang Meifeng to hear.

Even though Sun Tianbiao was unsure if the expert that had performed internal cleansing for Zhuang Meifeng was around, he dared not take the risk. He could only act as if that person was at the scene to handle this matter.

For people who were immensely strong, they could turn things around with just one word. One could say that if the Ling Yun who was at Qi Cultivation Level Nine had appeared in front of Sun Tianbiao and told him directly that he killed Niu Fenjiao and Sun Xing, Sun Tianbiao could only accept it. He wouldn’t even dare to make a single sound, and he would do everything in his power to get into Ling Yun’s good books as well!

This was what true power was!

“When my wife called me, she must have been at your house, is that right?

“If my guess is right, she must have written this after her call to me. Right now, this letter is in your hands, but my wife, son, and a team of experts from our Sun Family have disappeared without a trace for four entire days!

“So, I must know what happened that night after my wife called me and where the people from the Sun Family are!”

Sun Tianbiao wasn’t a regular person. The matter that happened on Friday night and the matter they had just discussed were different. The first matter was before Niu Fenjiao called him, and the second was after the call.

At that time, the Sun Family and Ling Yun were having a face-off. In order to take back her son from Tang Tianhao, Niu Fenjiao called Sun Tianbiao immediately. Furthermore, it wasn’t a short call either. She had already explained the entire situation to Sun Tianbiao.

So, Sun Tianbiao already knew that the matter wasn’t related to the Zhuang Family but was closely related to Ling Yun!

However, Niu Fenjiao had told him about Ling Yun’s immense strength over the phone and how he had killed the people from the Sun Family. She also told him about how her son, Sun Xing, was in Ling Yun’s hands and how he had suffered…

That was an incriminating phone call.

Sun Tianbiao didn’t need to investigate further; his investigation was simply a farce. He came to Qingshui City with one purpose — to kill Ling Yun!
