C494 Back to the Academy

Patriarch Lin and Patriarch Li were shocked. Was it really that powerful?

The Yue Family was even stronger than the Lin and Li Families. If they could be destroyed so easily, wouldn’t the Lin and Li Families be destroyed as well?

No wonder that kid wanted to take the blame for them. He really did have the ability to take the blame.

“Who is stronger between him and the Ninth Prince of the Beiming Family, Beiming Chen?”

Patriarch Lin’s voice sounded out. There would always be a difference between the strong and the weak.

Lin Yuan frowned and said, “The Ninth Prince of the Beiming Family was crowned when he was five years old. He was the only one among the nineteen princes who was crowned.”

“However, he was much more low-profile than Chief Long. There were no rumors about him in the Hao Yuan Empire. I only heard that he showed up at the birthday banquet of the girl from the Yue Family last year.”

“People who saw him said that he was peerless. His looks were no worse than Chief Long’s. He only showed up at the banquet because the Emperor wanted to marry the Third Lady of the General’s Mansion. However, the Third Lady of the General’s Mansion was Chief Long’s disciple, so she was stopped by Chief Long.”

“Later on, I only heard that he offended Chief Long for some reason and was killed by Chief Long. After that, he disappeared and there was no news about him.”

He was betrothed to the third daughter of the General’s Palace by the Emperor at the birthday banquet of the Yue Family?

The two old men, Elder Li and Elder Lin, were curious about this.

Elder Li frowned and said, “Didn’t they say that Beiming Chen was betrothed to Yue Lingyan of the Yue Family? And what about the third daughter of the General’s Palace?”

“There’s such a thing?”

Lin Yuan was obviously stunned. He obviously didn’t know about the betrothment between Beiming Chen and Yue Lingyan. He frowned and said, “I don’t know about that, but I did hear that he was close to the girl of the Yue Family.”

“Besides, the marriage between him and the third daughter of the General’s Palace was stopped by the Chief of the Dragon. Maybe it was after his marriage was stopped, and then the marriage was made between him and the girl of the Yue Family.” “What?”

“You haven’t told me what happened to the third daughter of the General’s Palace yet?” Elder Lin reminded him unhappily.

Lin Yuan smiled and said in a good mood, “The third daughter of the General’s Palace is called Yun Fengyu…”

“What? Yun Fengyu…”

Elder Li and Elder Lin shouted at the same time when they heard the name. They looked at each other and then looked at Lin Yuan with weird expressions.

Lin Yuan nodded and said, “That’s right. She is called Yun Fengyu, the disciple of the Chief of the Dragon.”

“I see.”

Elder Li nodded and suddenly understood everything. Elder Lin, who wasn’t as stupid as him, also understood.

If Long Zixuan didn’t stop them, Yun Fengyu and Beiming Chen would be engaged. That meant that they didn’t know each other that well. Maybe there was something more complicated between them.

The little girl of the Phoenix Palace must have known about this. Or maybe the name of the little girl was fake. She was Yun Fengyu.

That was why they told Beiming Chen to tell them the name of Yun Fengyu when he came to seek revenge.

It wasn’t just Long Zixuan who stopped them. Maybe the little girl of the Yue Family did something too.

Otherwise, why would Beiming Chen suddenly get engaged to the little girl of the Yue Family?

Long Zixuan must have found them and took the blame. Maybe he wanted to protect his disciple. Maybe he didn’t want Beiming Chen to go to Yun Fengyu. Maybe he had other reasons.

However, it could be inferred that if the little girl of the Phoenix Palace was really Yun Fengyu, she must have been hurt. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have changed her name.

Nobody knew what hurt her.

However, they were sure that Long Zixuan and Beiming Chen must be looking for the little girl. They couldn’t find her no matter what.

Ancestor Lin waved his hand and dismissed Lin Yuan. They knew what they wanted to know. They didn’t need to keep him.

Lin Yuan left respectfully. Only the two of them were left in the room.

Patriarch Lin looked at Patriarch Li and said, “Old Li, what do you think?”

“I think that the girl from the Phoenix Palace called Yu Feng is lying to us. She must be the Yun Feng Yu from the General’s Mansion,” Patriarch Lin said.

Patriarch Lin nodded and said, “I think so too. Forget it. At least we can let the Sacred Martial Division take the blame.”

Patriarch Li nodded and said, “That’s right. That brat from the Sacred Martial Division even dared to kill Beiming Chen’s mansion. I think he doesn’t even put Beiming Chen in his eyes. Forget it. Since he wants to take the blame, let him.”

Patriarch Lin nodded. He felt that it was best. He wouldn’t be in a hurry to cultivate after solving the most troublesome problem. …

In the afternoon.

Hao Yuan Academy, Eastern Xuan Mountain.

Feng Yu changed into Yu Feng’s appearance and walked toward Ye Jinglan’s yard. She spent ten days in Ning Province this time. She didn’t tell her aunt when she left. Her aunt would be worried about her if she disappeared for such a long time.

Therefore, since she was back, she would go and see her.

There were only two days left before the registration for the sect’s trial. The registration would be done in the morning and they would enter the trial in the afternoon.

It would probably be another period of time.

They walked into the Orchid Court.

They saw Ye Jinglan holding a book in her hand. She was sitting on a stone bench under a big tree in the courtyard. She looked extremely serious. The scent of books was everywhere around her, and it was extremely enchanting.

Hearing footsteps, she moved her eyes away from the book. She slowly raised her head and saw Feng Yu’s appearance after the change in her phoenix feathers. A hint of joy flashed across her eyes.

She smiled and looked at Feng Yu warmly. She was like a kind mother, and her entire body was radiating the light of motherly love.

“Aunt.”

Feng Yu sat down beside her and called out softly.

Ye Jinglan instinctively wanted to grab her hand, but she suddenly remembered her body’s condition. She could only extend her hand out, but it froze in midair before she retracted it.

“Yun-er, you suddenly disappeared for so many days. Where did you go? Aunt is very worried about you.”

Feng Yu thought for a while and said, “I went to the Ning Province.”

“Ning Province?” Ye Jinglan’s eyebrows moved and she said in surprise, “What did you go there for?”

Feng Yu didn’t hide it from her. She lowered her eyelids and said faintly, “I went to get the Moonlight Stone.”

“Moonlight Stone?”

Ye Jinglan’s eyes instantly widened and she said with a worried face, “Yun-er, the Moonlight Stone is the sacred object of the Yue Family. I don’t know how strict the Yue Family is with it. You actually dared to have designs on the Moonlight Stone? If you want that thing, you can tell aunt. Aunt will help you think of a way. Why did you go alone?”

[Do you dare?]

Feng Yu thought indifferently. [What is there to be afraid of? So what if the Yue Clan is watching me closely? It still falls into my hands.]

She raised her head and looked at Ye Jinglan. Her eyes looked at her worried and slightly reproachful face. After a long time, she winked at her and said, “Aunt, I know you are worried about me, but I am fine.”

When Ye Jinglan saw her nervous appearance and the girl beside her who had turned into a youth, she didn’t know what to say.

She just felt her chest tighten.

[Yun’Er has grown up. She has her own thoughts. However, she couldn’t help but feel a faint sense of loss.]

She wanted to be Yun’Er’s support, but Yun’Er didn’t want to be under her wings.

“What about the Moonlight Stone? Did you get it?”

Ye Jinglan suppressed the sourness and loss in her heart and asked in a low voice. In fact, she knew that it was impossible for her to get the Moonlight Stone. She asked this question because she wanted to help her.

If she didn’t say anything, according to Yun’Er’s personality, she wouldn’t say anything.

The Yun’Er of the past was a natural loser. She couldn’t cultivate. Everyone said that she was unwilling to accept her fate, but she knew that Yun’Er was just like that.

Although she was weak, her personality was incomparably tough. She looked humble, but her bones were concealed with arrogance. She was more patient than anyone else.

Feng Yu nodded and said, “Yes.”

Ye Jinglan opened her mouth in surprise. She actually got it?

The Yue Family was very strict about Moonlight Stones. No one knew better than her. She couldn’t imagine how Yun’Er got it. Was Yun’Er really that powerful?

The Yue Family in Ning Province had been wiped out, so no one knew about it yet. Therefore, Ye Jinglan didn’t know about it yet.

The news in this world was very limited. People could only hear about it from others or read the news from the Feng Palace.

The Feng Palace hadn’t spread the news about the Yue Family being wiped out yet. It would take at least half a month to spread the news to everyone.

Feng Yu looked at Ye Jinglan’s shocked face and said, “I was lucky. When I went to the Yue Family, they were wiped out. I sneaked into the Yue Family’s ancestral hall and took the Moonlight Stone.”

She only said that the Yue Family was wiped out, but she didn’t mention that she was the one behind it.

This news shocked Ye Jinglan. The Yue Family was a thousand years old family. How could it be wiped out in one night?

It seemed that no one in the Northern Wilderness could do it except the Martial Saint Bureau. Was the Martial Saint Bureau the one who wiped out the Yue Family?

Ye Jinglan shook her head and didn’t think about it anymore. It was fine even if the family was annihilated. After all, it was only a matter of time before the family was annihilated.

She just didn’t know if Yue Lingyan and her daughter were annihilated.

She didn’t know that Yue Lingyan was actually Yue Lingyan’s daughter. How could she not know that she had a daughter?

She had been with her sister for many years, so she naturally couldn’t bear to see her die.
