C487 The Yue Family Was Destroyed
A crazy power spread out in all directions. The small yard couldn’t bear it anymore. With a boom, it collapsed.
Old Ancestor Li and Old Ancestor Lin who were far away couldn’t help but feel scared. Luckily, they were fast enough. Otherwise, they would be severely injured by the power.
Maybe they would lose a few levels.
“We finally got rid of this old guy.”
Old Ancestor Lin looked at the collapsed yard and sighed.
“Yeah.” Old Ancestor Li said, “The three of us have known each other for more than two hundred years. I didn’t expect that he would die in our hands. Old man Lin, are we too inhumane?”
Humans didn’t do things for themselves. The heavens and earth would destroy them. In this world, who wasn’t selfish?
They did this because they couldn’t resist the temptation of the Longevity Divine Pill. However, it was not because they were inhumane. It was because of their human nature that they did this.
What was human nature? Wasn’t it selfishness, greed, and filth?
Old Ancestor Lin glanced at him and said, “You’ve killed him. Aren’t you too late to say this now?”
Old Ancestor Li touched his nose and said, “We’ve known each other for more than two hundred years now. Don’t you feel a little guilty in my heart? Forget it. Let’s go to the Treasury of the Yue Family. That little girl said that she emptied the Treasury of the Yue Family. I want to go and confirm whether she lied to us or not.”
“Do you want to confirm whether my daughter has lied to you or are you thinking about the treasures of the Yue Family?”
Ancestor Lin’s voice sounded with disdain.
Ancestor Li touched his nose and said with embarrassment, “Are both possible? The Yue Family will no longer exist after tonight. If my daughter didn’t take the treasures away, who would you keep them for?”
“I think you will go there empty-handed.” Ancestor Lin said, “That’s good. I will go with you to make you give up.”
For some reason, Ancestor Lin had an inexplicable confidence in Feng Yu. She said that she would empty the treasures of the Yue Family, so she wouldn’t lie to them.
When they reached the door of the treasure house, Ancestor Li waved his hand and the lock fell to the ground. The door opened automatically and two people walked in. The first floor was empty, and nothing was there.
“Let’s go upstairs.”
Ancestor Li walked upstairs with no intention of stopping. Ancestor Lin followed him without saying anything. The second floor, third floor, and fourth floor were all empty.
There was no treasure, and there wasn’t even a single silver coin.
Ancestor Li kicked the wooden box on the floor angrily and said, “It was really emptied by my daughter. The Yue Family is so strange. The treasure house is so clean, why lock it?”
If the door wasn’t locked, he wouldn’t need to go to the fourth floor. He was almost three hundred years old. Would it be easy for him to go there?
Ancestor Lin humphed and didn’t bother to respond. He thought to himself that after this matter was over, he must build a good relationship with the little girl. Otherwise, she might really empty the Lin family’s treasury one day.
If that was the case, the younger generation of his family wouldn’t even have a place to cry.
“Since there’s nothing here, let’s go. After we solve the problem with the old guy of the Yue family, the younger generation of the other two families can solve the other problems.”
“Okay.”
The two figures moved and disappeared.
Not long after they left, two figures appeared. Looking at the empty treasury, Lin Yuan and Li Jingyun were so angry that their faces turned green.
“Who was the one who stole the Moonlight Stones of the Yue family and emptied the treasures here?”
Li Jingyun frowned and spoke in a low voice with displeasure.
Lin Yuan’s eyes moved and said, “Could it be the people of the Phoenix Palace?”
Today, the people of the Phoenix Palace suddenly appeared and then left. It was something worth investigating.
However, the ancestors of the Phoenix Palace and the Lin family seemed to have some secret relationship.
Li Jingyun nodded and said, “I think what you said makes sense. Let’s go back today and ask the ancestor if there’s any relationship between the Phoenix Palace and us. If we attack the Phoenix Palace directly and anger the ancestor, we can’t explain ourselves.”
Lin Yuan nodded and said, “Okay, let’s go back.”
The two of them left the place.
In the backyard of the Li family.
Lin Li and the two Ancestors were in the same room with Lin Yuan and Li Jingyun.
Lin Yuan looked at his Ancestor and said respectfully, “Ancestor, may I ask if you have any relationship with the Phoenix Palace?”
Hearing what Lin Yuan said, Ancestor Lin almost immediately remembered Feng Yu. He nodded and said, “That’s right. That little girl from the Phoenix Palace is interesting.”
Lin Yuan and Li Jingyun were confused. Little girl from the Phoenix Palace? What was that?
Ancestor Lin looked at Lin Yuan’s face and suddenly became serious. He warned him with a serious face, “You brat, don’t have any evil thoughts toward the Phoenix Palace. Do you understand? Otherwise, I will kick you out of the Lin family.”
How could a girl who could empty the whole Moon family’s treasury and plan to destroy the Moon family, and even take out such a heaven-defying pill, be simple?
Therefore, it was best that this brat didn’t have any evil thoughts toward the Phoenix Palace. Otherwise, even he couldn’t save him.
Hearing his Ancestor call him brat, Lin Yuan felt tired. He was already over seventy years old and was the grandpa. Why was he still called a brat?
However, what he cared more about was that his Ancestor actually warned him not to do anything to the Phoenix Palace. Otherwise, he would be kicked out of the Lin family. Was it that serious?
Li Jingyun also looked at Ancestor Li doubtfully. Ancestor Li put down the teacup in his hand and glared at him coldly. He said, “What are you looking at? You are the same. If you dare to have any evil thoughts toward the Phoenix Palace, I will kick you out of the Li Family.”
Although Li Jingyun was the Patriarch of the Li Family, the Li Family was still the most important thing to him. As a junior, he did not dare to disobey him.
Even if he wanted to break his legs, he could only bear it.
Li Jingyun and Lin Yuan nodded and said respectfully, “Don’t worry, Ancestor. We will listen to your teachings.”
Although they said that, they were really confused in their hearts. What was the background of the Phoenix Palace? Why did the two Ancestors care so much about it?
While they were confused, they also felt relieved. Luckily, they decided to come back and ask the Ancestors, not to attack the Phoenix Palace directly. Otherwise, they would be in a miserable situation if the two Ancestors protected the Phoenix Palace.
At this moment, Lin Yuan and Li Jingyun were no longer worried about the treasures of the Yue Family and the Moonlight Stones. It was in the hands of the Phoenix Palace anyway. It was useless even if they were still coveting it.
What could they do if the Ancestors protected it?
The next day.
News that could shake Ning Province exploded. The Yue Family, a first-class family that had been passed down for a thousand years, was annihilated overnight.
This matter made all the cultivators in Ning Province panic and feel happy.
The Yue Family was a tumor in the hearts of the cultivators in Ning Zhou City. They had become more and more arrogant recently. Many cultivators wanted to get rid of them, but they were too weak to do so.
The difference in strength was too big. They could only think about getting rid of the Yue Family.
No one questioned which force had destroyed the Yue Family because they knew it.
The incident about Lin Qianxiao and Li Xiaoran in the Phoenix Palace was caused by Yue Linglong. The Yue Family had been destroyed. Who else could it be other than the Lin Family and the Li Family?
There were no other forces in Ning Zhou City. Only the two families could destroy the Yue Family.
However, they were puzzled. Why did the Lin Family and the Li Family have the courage to destroy the Yue Family?
They thought that even if the incident in the Phoenix Palace was revealed, they would only let Yue Linglong go. Who would have thought that they would uproot the Yue Family?
It seemed that they had underestimated the Lin Family and the Li Family in the past.
At noon.
Phoenix Palace.
Feng Yu was sitting in the private room on the second floor. She was holding a cup of tea. She looked down at Lei Lie who was standing quietly next to her in black.
She should have left after getting the Moonlight Stone and destroying the Yue Family. However, she had a feeling that the two ancestors of the Lin Family and the Li Family would come to find her.
She didn’t need to pay attention to the two ancestors normally.
However, it was different now. The two families had joined hands to destroy the Yue Family, so it wouldn’t be able to be hidden. Once it reached the Imperial Capital, Beiming Chen would know about it.
With the relationship between Beiming Chen and Yue Lingyan, he might help Yue Lingyan take revenge. Maybe he would also come to the Ning Province to destroy the two families.
There were more than five hundred people in the two families, and there were more than six thousand disciples in total.
So, she couldn’t let so many people die in vain. Besides, the two Patriarchs might even tell the Phoenix Palace about it.
The branch of the Phoenix Palace in the Ning Province was developing well, so she couldn’t let it be destroyed by Beiming Chen.
She was right. The two Patriarchs of the Lin Family and Li Family had come to the Phoenix Palace to find her.
President Zhao was a native of the Ning Province, so he naturally knew the two legendary Patriarchs of the Lin Family and the Li Family. When he saw them walk in side by side, he immediately greeted them with a big smile.
“Welcome, Patriarchs.”
Patriarch Lin looked at the junior who was very polite and said proudly, “We are here to find your Palace Master. Take us to see her.”
The Phoenix Palace had told him that if the two Patriarchs came to find her, he would just take them to her.
President Zhao quickly led the way and said, “Yes, Patriarchs. This way please.”
President Zhao respectfully led the two Patriarchs to the second floor. They went around the screen and saw the girl who was slowly sipping tea. Patriarch Lin’s eyes lit up and he said happily, “Little girl, we meet again.”
Feng Yu waved his hand and dismissed President Zhao. He stood up from his chair and pulled out a chair for the two old men. He said in a faint voice, “Yes, I was waiting for the two ancestors.”
