Chapter 68: The Arrival of the Five Great Families
In Haicheng City, it is still as usual, people busy with work are constantly shuttling in the streets. It is time to get off work, and now it is the peak period of crowds.
At this time, Ling Yun stood in front of the window, overlooking the tide of people below, and then raised his somewhat dazed eyes to look at the setting sun.
The only clue to find his family was lost, which made Ling Yun disheartened. All his previous efforts may be in vain.
Although Situ Yun had already sent people to search for the ruins after learning about it, the news that came back had to dash Ling Yun's last hope!
Seeing Ling Yun so depressed, Situ Yun was also very anxious. In order to help Ling Yun recover from the shock of losing the necklace, Situ Yun vowed to recover the necklace. With Situ Yun's guarantee, Ling Yun finally recovered.
He felt a little angry. However, the trance in his eyes could not be dissipated.
The sunset that was about to disappear burst out with a strangely beautiful brilliance at the last moment, shrouding Ling Yun's face in the afterglow of the setting sun. Although there was such a beautiful scenery in front of him, Ling Yun had no intention of watching it, because at this time, in his eyes, the whole world had already
It lost its color and became extremely dark.
At this time, Situ Yun opened the door and walked in. When he walked to Ling Yun's side, Situ Yun said with an uncertain expression: "Ling Yun, another old gentleman who claims to be the director of the orphanage where you once lived wants to see you."
Hearing Situ Yun's words, Ling Yun's eyes fluctuated for no reason. He sighed and said with a reluctant smile: "Where is he? I'll go see him!"
"It's in my room next door, I arranged them there." Situ Yun said.
Ling Yun smiled at Situ Yun and walked out the door.
When Ling Yun walked to the door, Situ Yun suddenly asked with an unusual expression: "Ling Yun! Do you know your dean? I mean, do you know his true identity?"
Ling Yun who walked to the door trembled and suddenly stood there. After a while, he slowly turned around to face Situ Yun and said with a calm smile: "In my eyes, he is just an ordinary old man.
The elders who watched me grow up and gave me care, weren't they?" Ling Yun then turned around and left the room.
Seeing Ling Yun's calmness and composure, Situ Yun smiled happily. He didn't expect that there was such a great power behind Ling Yun. Even without Situ Yun's protection, the other four major families would not embarrass Ling Yun. Now
Only then did he understand why his father didn't send someone to him and let him face the four major families alone. It turned out that he had known for a long time that someone would stand up behind Ling Yun. However, thinking of the old man's identity, Situ Yun was still very concerned.
Yes, after all, the power that the old man can gather is enough to fight against any aristocratic family!
Ling Yun walked outside the door and took a deep breath. Although he didn't know why the old dean came to visit, Ling Yun knew that it must have something to do with him. He knew that Situ Yun just reminded him intentionally, and it seemed that the old dean did too.
A person who could be taken seriously by Situ Yun. No matter what identity the old dean appeared in today, Ling Yun still planned to face the old dean with a normal heart.
"Dong, dong!" Ling Yun knocked on the door politely twice.
"Come in!" A loud voice came from inside. Hearing this unfamiliar voice, Ling Yun couldn't help but frown slightly, hesitated for a moment, then opened the door and walked in.
Although Ling Yun thought of several possibilities, Ling Yun was still a little surprised when he saw the old dean!
Just when Ling Yun walked into the room, all the forces in Longfeng Pavilion withdrew. Only a few of the largest forces stayed, but the remaining forces just lived peacefully in the hotel.
In the four corners of Haicheng City, four luxurious flying cars marched towards Longfeng Pavilion in unison, and on the most eye-catching positions of the four flying cars, there were four different badge patterns printed on them.
In a guest room of Longfeng Pavilion, manager Wu Tao hurried over, for no other reason than that the guest in this room had just asked someone to bring him a gold card. After seeing this gold card,
Wu Tao's head immediately got bigger. This gold card can only be used by people within the family, so he had to come to receive it in person.
Wu Tao was sweating profusely when he walked into the guest room. He saw several people standing in the room, but Wu Tao, who was good at observing people's emotions, smiled and asked the only guest with his back to him: "Excuse me, is this gold card?"
Did you send it?"
"You have pretty good eyesight! I sent it to you!" The guest turned around and said with a smile.
If Situ Yun were here, he would definitely be stunned, because this guest is none other than his father - Situ Lei!
In a paradise with beautiful mountains and clear waters, there are antique buildings everywhere, which makes people feel like they are in that distant era. In the middle of this building complex, there is the tallest ancient building, and the hall of this building is full of people.
Zi stood in front of everyone, and an old man in the first seat was playing with the necklace in his hand.
After playing with the necklace in his hand for a while, a layer of light mist suddenly appeared in the old man's hand, and the necklace in his hand also changed. The word "Ling" that originally only appeared under the moonlight appeared.
Many young people standing below looked at the necklace in the old man's hand with envious eyes, because this necklace was a symbol of honor in their eyes.
After a while, as the light mist in the old man's hand dissipated, the necklace returned to its normal appearance.
Looking at the necklace, the old man frowned slightly and said: "It should be a token of our clan. This production method cannot be fake, but why did this thing fall into the hands of others? Do you have any opinions?" After that,
He turned to look at the other old men sitting in the hall.
Unfortunately, the remaining people were also puzzled and shook their heads. Finally, an old man suddenly thought of something and hurriedly whispered something to the old man at the head.
After hearing the old man's riddle, the old man at the head also looked puzzled, but he still dismissed everyone below, leaving only Feng Yunzi and a few old men.
After everyone left, the old man at the head stood up and led several people into the back hall.
After several old men sat down, Feng Yunzi stood quietly at the end.
"Sixth Elder, is what you just said true? Now Yan'er is practicing in the master's sect, and we can't ask her for confirmation!" the first old man said with a frown.
"Clan leader, it's true! More than ten years ago, Yan'er suddenly ended her experience in the secular world. As if she had been stimulated by something, she couldn't wait to go to the master to practice. Before leaving, she secretly asked me for a piece of my clan's
He said that he gave the token to an old friend, and then told me that if someone comes to visit with a token from the clan in the future, I must keep that person and inform her of the news." The Sixth Elder said seriously.
"Old Six! I'm not telling you, how can it be child's play to give clan tokens to others? Yan'er is making nonsense, and you follow her? Oh~!" the clan leader couldn't help but sigh.
"Um... Patriarch, there's nothing I can do about it. You all know Yan'er's temper. I'm really... ugh~" the Sixth Elder also said with a wry smile.
Feng Yunzi, who was standing at the end, couldn't help but burst into laughter. When the name "Ling Yan'er" was mentioned, as long as everyone in the clan knew it, even the descendants who had never met her would know it from other people.
I heard the legend about this little witch from the elders!
Hearing Feng Yunzi's uncontrollable laughter, several elders realized that there were still juniors here. At this time, the leader of the clan said in a deep voice: "Ling Hao!"
Feng Yunzi responded hurriedly: "Yes!"
"You came back suddenly this time. Although you have not finished your training, the circumstances are special. We agree that you should report to the master immediately. Remember, you are the disciple personally selected by fellow Taoist Huang Yunzi, and we also gave you the master's Taoist title of 'Feng Yunzi' in public.
, you will be the disciple of Fellow Daoist Huang when you go to the master's school. You must practice well and don't let our clan lose face, you know?" the clan leader said in a deep voice.
"Boy, I understand. Please rest assured, clan leader and elders, I will definitely not embarrass the clan I protect!" Feng Yunzi replied in response.
The clan leader said happily: "Okay! You are worthy of being a member of our clan, but this time you go to the master's gate, you still have another task, which is to tell Ling Yan'er exactly how you obtained the necklace. Do you understand?" As he spoke,
, a trace of amusement flashed in the patriarch's eyes.
"I understand, kid!" Feng Yunzi replied, but unfortunately he didn't know that he had been plotted.
"Okay, this matter is very important. You set out immediately. I will ask someone to deliver the necessary items. You can wait at the teleportation array first!" the clan leader continued.
"Boy, I understand!" After saying that, Feng Yunzi turned and left.
After Feng Yunzi left, an elder next to him said doubtfully: "Chief, don't be in such a hurry, right?"
But the patriarch said with a mysterious face: "He is not in a hurry, I am. If he tells what he just heard when he is free, wouldn't we lose face?"
The elders thought about it for a while, but they still couldn't help but feel cold when they thought of Ling Yan'er!
Is this still the old dean that he is familiar with? Ling Yun is no longer sure!
At this time, the old dean no longer had the vicissitudes of the past, but was full of energy. He looked as if he was more than ten years younger. He was dressed in a luxurious and solemn old-style white Chinese tunic suit, and wore a pair of gold-rimmed eyes, which flashed from time to time.
Shining with a towering light! Holding a cane engraved with dragon patterns in both hands, he sat as steadily as Mount Tai on the sofa facing the door. On both sides stood an old man in gorgeous clothes.
Seeing that Ling Yun was fine, the old dean felt a sense of comfort in his eyes. He pointed to a nearby seat and said softly: "I heard that you were injured just now. Stop standing and sit down!"
Ling Yun didn't say anything, and sat down calmly, staring at the old dean with a pair of calm eyes.
Seeing Ling Yun's calmness, the two standing old men couldn't help showing admiration in their eyes, while the old dean smiled happily.
"Perhaps you are guessing why I am like this, so let me tell you my story first..." Then the old dean began to tell his story.
Through the old dean's narration, Ling Yun learned a lot of things that he didn't know before. It turned out that the old dean's name was Liu Tianming, and he was born in a family that has been involved in the underworld for generations. Liu Tianming has been living in a bloody environment since he was born.
.Soon after, young Liu Tianming gradually emerged in the underworld and became a shining star in the underworld. After experiencing two ups and downs, Liu Tianming came to his senses and decided to quit the underworld. In order to make up for the wrong things he had done,
Liu Tianming built an orphanage on his own and has been managing the orphanage by relying on his own efforts.
I don't know how long it took, but the old dean finished telling his story, and Ling Yun was still sitting there quietly. The atmosphere in the whole room became very quiet, and it was a bit depressing.
"Old Liu Tou!" Ling Yun suddenly said a word without any meaning, which broke the oppressive atmosphere in the whole room and stunned the three old people in the room except Ling Yun!
With a faint smile, Ling Yun said slowly: "This may be the last time I call you. Maybe from today on, you will become a different person!"
Hearing Ling Yun's explanation, Liu Tianming smiled knowingly, and then said: "Actually, I will still become the old Liu Tou who is busy working for the orphanage all day long, but whether I can change back to my original appearance is not up to me.
, but in your hands, Xiaoyun!"
Ling Yun's face was full of doubts, and he couldn't understand why Liu Tianming said this.
"Xiaoyun, do you still remember what I told you about the experience of picking you up?" Liu Tianming said, staring at Ling Yun.
"Of course I remember, you accidentally found me on the road one night!" Ling Yun said doubtfully.
"Actually..." Just when Liu Tianming was about to speak again, someone suddenly knocked on the door and interrupted Liu Tianming.
"Dong dong!" After two rings, the door was pushed open, and Situ Yun walked in with a helpless smile on his face.
Seeing Situ Yun walk in without permission, Liu Tianming frowned in displeasure, and an old man with a scar on his face beside him yelled angrily: "Who asked you to come in!
go out!"
Situ Yun had never been treated like this before, but knowing that he was wrong, Situ Yun ignored the old man and said to Liu Tianming and Ling Yun: "Sorry to bother you, Mr. Liu, Ling Yun, how many of you are there?"
The guest wants to meet you two!"
Seeing that Situ Yun refused to leave, the scarred old man was stopped by Liu Tianming just as he was about to continue speaking.
"Fourth! Stop embarrassing the juniors. Okay, just let these people in!" Liu Tianming said in a deep voice.
Situ Yun first saluted Liu Tianming, then made an apologetic expression to Ling Yun, and finally turned around to give up his seat at the door. Then four people walked in successively, including an old man and a red-haired middle-aged man.
There was a middle-aged man with blue hair and a young man with blond hair. After these four people entered the room, Situ Yun quickly directed his men outside the door to place four high-end chairs. But he stood in the room.
In a corner.
When he saw the four people coming in, Liu Tianming frowned and motioned for Ling Yun to sit next to him. Seeing the look in Liu Tianming's eyes, Ling Yun quickly stood up and sat next to Liu Tianming, looking at them calmly as they entered in turn.
Among the four people, when Ling Yun saw the last blond young man who walked in, he suddenly felt like he had seen him before, and the other person actually showed a strange smile to him after seeing him, which made Ling Yun puzzled.
Just after the four of them sat down, a hearty voice sounded at the door again: "Don't you guys wait for me to join you? Haha~!"
I saw another middle-aged man walk into the room. After scanning around, he naturally sat on the seat where Ling Yun had just sat. Then he smiled at the four people next to him, and the four of them responded to the question.
The smile of a young man.
Situ Yun, who was standing in the corner next to him, looked at the middle-aged man who came in last with his mouth wide open, because this man was his father Situ Lei!
As if sensing Situ Yun's surprised look, Situ Lei turned his head and gave Situ Yun a reassuring look, and then ignored Situ Yun.
At this time, Situ Yun also calmed down his emotions and stayed quietly in the corner, staying away from the incident and looking at the few people sitting together.
With the arrival of Situ Lei, the five people seemed to form a siege by coincidence, surrounding Liu Tianming and Ling Yun. Liu Tianming looked at the five people in front of him coldly, while Ling Yun remained calm as usual.
A war between these seven people is about to begin!
