Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“H-He couldn’t have escaped after killing the Sun Family’s men, right?” After hearing that Ling Yun disappeared, he began to panic. In his anxiety, he jumped up from the sofa as he said this.

Zhuang Meifeng scoffed in her heart as she replied calmly, “Escaped? Ling Yun has never been afraid of anything!”

Towards her beloved, Zhuang Meifeng’s trust was even stronger than her belief that the sun would rise from the east!

“Then, why did he suddenly disappear? After getting into such a huge mess, what’s going to happen to our family?” Agitated and upset, Zhuang Tiande was like an ant in a flaming pan, pacing about restlessly.

Zhuang Meifeng replied coldly, “What are you so anxious about? Even though Ling Yun disappeared, aren’t I back now? Relax, since this matter happened because of me, I’ll definitely settle it once and for all!”

“Ling Yun disappeared? H-he’s not hurt, is he?” Hearing that Ling Yun had gone missing, Zhuang Meina couldn’t help but feel a wave of panic overcome her. Thinking to herself, this must have been why she couldn’t find Ling Yun when she went to his class yesterday.

Realizing that her sister had already fallen deeply in love with Ling Yun, Zhuang Meifeng sighed slowly. Even so, she had already lost her will to argue with her.

She couldn’t believe that her own sister had fallen in love with the same man. Zhuang Meifeng didn’t know how to handle such a matter; she could only wait for Ling Yun to return.

She had gone through thick and thin with Ling Yun. Their relationship was already sturdier than gold. Naturally, she wasn’t afraid that her little sister would steal Ling Yun from her. Even if she were worried, she would be more concerned about top-class beauties like Xue Meining or Cao Shanshan.

Even so, Zhuang Meifeng already knew that Ling Yun had far too many women around him. Not to mention Xiao Meimei, there were lots of women who were willing to fight for Ling Yun with their lives at stake. Just that night, they included Xue Meining, Cao Shanshan, and another masked girl with a sexy body. There was also the nine-tailed celestial fox, Little White that could turn into a human!

Furthermore, the beautiful female police officer, Lin Menghan, who had a body and face that were much more voluptuous and entrancing than herself, was there that night too. At the time, Ling Yun had watched her intently and felt her up, and she had obviously prepared herself to marry him right then and there.

When she was chatting with Xue Meining and Cao Shanshan, Zhuang Meifeng learned that there was also a stunning beauty who gave Ling Yun a Maserati!

However, none of these beauties could compare to that person!

Ning Lingyu!

A woman’s troubles couldn’t be hidden from another, especially not from such a top-tier, intelligent woman like herself!

Zhuang Meifeng had stayed with Ning Lingyu for two entire days. After Ling Yun’s disappearance on Monday, she had seen Ning Lingyu’s panic when she realized this.

That wasn’t the despair that a little sister would have when her brother disappeared. Her frenzied state had surpassed each and every one of them!

Zhuang Meifeng had already understood the darkness in Ning Lingyu’s gaze when she heard about her relationship with Ling Yun.

Zhuang Meifeng and Xiao Meimei understood her feelings. The two of them had even quietly discussed the topic, but none of them dared to ask Ning Lingyu to confirm it.

Once they found out, none of them could ask about it if Ning Lingyu refused to talk about it. Though Ling Yun and Ning Lingyu weren’t related by blood, they were still siblings in-name.

Of course, while Ning Lingyu had feelings for Ling Yun, Zhuang Meifeng felt that Ling Yun only treated Ning Lingyu as his little sister and nothing else.

The care and concern that Ling Yun showered for Ning Lingyu were far beyond any brother. However, Zhuang Meifeng believed that those feelings were definitely because of their relationship as siblings.

Around Zhuang Meifeng, there were many “competitors”. Each of them was willing to put everything at stake and die for Ling Yun. Even she didn’t know how to handle that. She didn’t expect that with everything that was happening, her own sister had also fallen in love with Ling Yun!

“Relax, with Ling Yun’s abilities, he’ll be fine. I believe he’ll be back soon.”

Above everything, she was still her little sister. Zhuang Meifeng couldn’t bear to see her panic.

However, once she said this, she regretted it. Wasn’t she implicitly acknowledging her sister’s feelings for Ling Yun?

For Zhuang Meifeng, she was apart from her family for four days. However, for Zhuang Tiande and his family, because they had lost an entire night of memories, Zhuang Meifeng had already left home for over 10 days.

After she finished explaining everything, Zhao Bomin began to ask about Zhuang Meifeng’s wellbeing. Listening to her oldest daughter talk about her experiences, she couldn’t help but sigh deeply.

The night passed just like that. On Wednesday, Sun Tianbiao began to use the Sun Family’s power to stir trouble in Qingshui City. Through the Public Security Bureau’s Director, Luo Zhong, he started using a series of ploys to lure Ling Yun out.

After investigating madly for three days, Sun Tianbiao naturally found some clues. However, no matter how he searched, he didn’t find anything concrete that could prove that Zhuang Meifeng’s story was a lie.

On that night, Ling Yun’s divine sense was very strong. He wiped the memories of the three assassins from the Assassins Organization and the men from Sun Family completely. With his Level Eight Fire Talismans, he burnt all the corpses to ashes. For everyone that was still alive, he wiped their memories and left no traces behind.

One could say that even if Ling Yun had been in Qingshui, he wouldn’t be afraid of Sun Tianbiao’s investigation. Unless Sun Tianbiao decided to forcefully do so, he wouldn’t find any conclusive evidence.

When Friday night came, Sun Tianbiao could no longer sit still. Using the Zhuang Family’s lives as a threat, he forced Zhuang Meifeng to tell him the truth.

Ling Yun had disappeared on Monday. He hadn’t returned even by Friday night. This was far beyond Zhuang Meifeng’s expectations. As her worry for Ling Yun escalated, her confidence was beginning to waver!

She couldn’t contact anybody. Aimlessly waiting for something to happen, she began to undergo lots of anxiety as her beliefs turned to dust.

Zhuang Meifeng wasn’t afraid of death or the Sun Family’s threats. What she was most afraid of was losing Ling Yun. If he truly disappeared, her heart would be dead.

What’s more, on that night, Sun Tianbiao’s tolerance for Zhuang Meifeng had reached its limits. Taking the three Xiantian Realm experts with him, he stood in front of the four from the Zhuang Family. He forced her to make a decision.

Either Zhuang Meifeng spilled what happened that night, or all four of them would die. There was no other option!

There was no way Zhuang Meifeng could say that Ling Yun killed everyone, and she couldn’t let her own family die either. She suffered immensely as she couldn’t make a choice.

However, all of a sudden, the entire Qingshui City, or rather, the entire Jiangnan Province, felt an intense earthquake!

This was precisely the day when Ling Yun used both Yin Qi and Yang Qi to open up the Eight Trigrams Tai Chi Map inside the crater!

The earthquake came from the direction of Dragon Mountain!

For such an impactful commotion, Sun Tianbiao’s senses told him that it was definitely related to the Earth Emperor’s Book. Without hesitation, he took the three Xiantian Realm experts and his men, sprinting straight to Dragon Mountain!

Underground, the water level rose a hundred meters. It was completely flooded at the crater!

The Yin-Yang Dragon Lock had been unlocked!

Just as Sun Tianbiao and the other experts were trying to analyze what could have happened, he received the news from his family that the Earth Emperor’s Book had appeared and acknowledged its master!

Hearing this, Sun Tianbiao was obviously enraged. However, at that moment, the crater was facing fierce currents. Since nobody came out, no one dared to enter either.

Sun Tianbiao took all of his men to search through the entire Dragon Mountain and the Southern Peak for the entire night. He was ready to kill anyone who came out from the cater at all costs. However, he couldn’t have dreamt that by that time, Ling Yun was already thousands of miles away, at Shennongjia!

Frustrated, Sun Tianbiao gained nothing after arriving at Qingshui City for so many days. This made him thoroughly agitated!

This triggered his need for bloodshed. He was prepared to start a huge, bloody fight to calm his rage!

Of which, the Zhuang Family was definitely one of his targets.

However, just as Sun Tianbiao was about to interrogate Zhuang Meifeng again, one person stood forward — Priestess Desireless.

Priestess Desireless revealed that as long as Zhuang Meifeng was willing to become a disciple of the Tranquil Sect, she would ensure the Zhuang Family’s safety.

She had the intention to take her as her disciple long ago. However, after observing her for a long time, she could tell that Zhuang Meifeng was deeply attached to Ling Yun. She knew that Zhuang Meifeng would definitely reject her invitation to be a disciple of the Tranquil Sect; hence, she was waiting for her opportunity.

Right now, Zhuang Meifeng had no other path to take. At this point, her offer was far too attractive.

Zhuang Meifeng and Ling Yun were soulmates that relied on one another; their relationship was very deep. If she became a disciple of the Tranquil Sect, the most important thing for her was to let go of her love. How could she bear to do that?

However, with Sun Tianbiao’s wolf-like oppression threatening her entire family and Ling Yun’s complete disappearance for five entire days, there was no other option but for her to accept Priestess Desireless’ offer.

Right now, only the Tranquil Sect was willing to stand up for the Zhuang Family. She had no choice but to accept it.

That was the only way!

Under Zhuang Tiande’s oppression, Zhuang Meifeng kowtowed to her on the spot. Priestess Desireless’ face broke out into a smile as Sun Tianbiao’s expression turned green; there was nothing he could do!

The Tranquil Sect’s power wasn’t something his Sun Family could afford to challenge. Furthermore, Priestess Desireless was an expert at Xiantian Realm Level Two. Even if she were to turn her back on him right then, there was no way Sun Tianbiao, Master Xingchi, and Head Priest Wuchen could have outpowered her!

Not only could Sun Tianbiao not display his displeasure, but he also had to force out a smile to congratulate Priestess Desireless on her new disciple.

Priestess Desireless was very satisfied. Taking each of their greetings, she announced that the Tranquil Sect was protecting the Zhuang Family from then on. If anyone dared to fight the Zhuang Family, they would be picking a fight with the Tranquil Sect!

With that, she forced everyone out of the house.

In front of the other three, Priestess Desireless asked Zhuang Meifeng if she was willing to let go of her love completely and focus on cultivating the Tranquil Technique.

For Zhuang Meifeng to forget about Ling Yun, it was something completely impossible for her. However, since she had already acknowledged her as her master, she could only nod quietly even if it was painful.

Zhuang Meifeng’s plan was good. As long as she refused to forget Ling Yun in her heart, and once Ling Yun returned and understood the situation, he would definitely take her back even if he had to cross thousands of mountains and even the seven seas!

Perhaps, once she had completed her cultivation, she would have an opportunity to leave the sect. She could still meet Ling Yun again, and nobody could stop her.

“Your disciple is... willing!” Even though Zhuang Meifeng knew that there was no way she could forget about Ling Yun, saying those words made her entire frame shiver uncontrollably as she grit her teeth and tears streamed down her face continuously.

“Alright, swallow this pill, and I’ll take you back to the sect!”

Priestess Desireless smiled lightly as she placed the pill she had prepared long ago into Zhuang Meifeng’s hands.
