Yun Lintian slowly put the teacup down upon hearing Wu Qingcheng's name. His face became serious as he asked. "Tell me about it."
Qin Mei slowly said. "It seems this person has something to do with you."
During these three months, the hottest news was naturally about the Beyond Heaven King's successor, and Qin Mei could guess more or less about Yun Lintian's identity. It was no wonder her young miss attached so much importance to him.
Yun Lintian didn't hide anything. "She's my fourth sister."
Ning Yue was surprised to hear this but didn't ask anything.
Qin Mei nodded slowly. "No wonder. Looks like young miss has foreseen ahead of everyone."
She paused briefly and explained. "More than a year ago, Miss Wu had returned to the clan with her father. The news was extremely shocking at that time. Even I, a low-level member, could feel about it."
"However, Miss Wu and her father were not welcomed by the other clan members. If it wasn't for young miss who spoke for them, they would definitely be imprisoned and even killed."
A cold glint flashed through Yun Lintian's eyes when he heard this. He asked calmly. "From your young miss' words, the Mystic God Emperor and the Shen Clan's patriarch seem to care about them. Why would they let it happen?"
Before Qin Mei could reply, Yue Chuntao, who was sipping orange juice boringly, spoke first. "How could you talk about feeling in a family that runs the business as a main priority?"
Yue Chuntao curled her lips and said disdainfully. "What kind of value could your fourth sister and her father bring to the clan except for a humiliation and unpleasant scandal?"
Yun Lintian frowned slightly. "What about her mother, then?"
Qin Mei's lips twitched slightly, and she didn't say anything.
Yue Chuntao looked at Qin Mei and said. "Let me guess. Her mother should be the Mystic God Emperor's daughter, Shen Yifei. Am I correct?"
Qin Mei nodded slowly.
Yue Chuntao chuckled and turned to Yun Lintian. "Hehe. It's a miracle that your fourth sister and her father are still alive."
Yun Lintian frowned deeply, waiting for her further explanation.
"Decades ago, Shen Yifei married Hidden Mountain God Emperor's eldest son, Shan Jinhao. Mystic Auction House is known for auctioning, Hidden Mountain for gathering information, and bounty hunting. They are not much inferior to the most famous assassination organization, Bloody Tomb Society." Yue Chuntao explained briefly.
She took a deep look at Yun Lintian and said further. "I also heard that Shen Yifei gave birth to a son for him. In your opinion, what's the use of having your fourth sister and her father around?"
Yun Lintian's eyes drooped slightly upon hearing this. He might look calm on the surface, but everyone could feel a cold killing intent around him. Even Yue Qi, who was a genuine Divine Emperor, couldn't help but look at him solemnly. He could tell that there were numerous bodies under Yun Lintian's hand.
Yun Lintian's heart was blazed with a flame of fury at this moment. It was fine if Wu Qingcheng and her father were under house-arrested, but it was different now. Their lives were basically hanging on a thin thread right now. As much as he wanted to avoid the limelight, watching Wu Qingcheng and her father die was impossible.
A moment later, Yun Lintian raised his head slightly to look at Qin Mei. "Do you know the shortest way to go there?"
Qin Mei involuntarily shuddered when her gaze met Yun Lintian's eyes. It was a pair of icy eyes that she would never forget for the rest of her life.
She took a deep breath and handed a silver token to him. "You can take this token to the Rising Sun Realm's capital city. There will be a grand teleporting formation directly to the Mystic God Realm over there."
Yun Lintian took the silver token from her and left directly.
Seeing this, Ning Yue hurriedly followed him. Her face was full of worries as it was the first time she saw him getting angry like this.
Yue Chuntao didn't leave right away. She looked at Qin Mei with a smile. "Your young miss is very good at business. She has perfectly inherited her grandfather's bloodline."
Qin Mei went silent and lowered her head slightly as if avoiding Yue Chuntao's gaze.
"The moment she knew about Wu Qingcheng's identity and background, she could immediately come up with this plan. Her vision is worthy of praise." Yue Chuntao chuckled.
Qin Mei raised her head slightly and said. "Do you believe she has no such an intention from the beginning? Even if she did know Yun Lintian's identity from Wu Qingcheng, it was impossible for her to guess his whereabouts."
"You should ask this question to yourself. Do you really believe it?" Yue Chuntao stared into Qin Mei's eyes with a faint smile.
Qin Mei opened her mouth, but no word came out in the end.
"Your young miss could easily deduct his whereabouts from the direction Wu Qingcheng came from. I bet all of your people in this Eastern Divine Region were told to look for an abnormal practitioner during this period. Tell me. Am I wrong?" Yue Chuntao's smile grew wider.
Qin Mei remained silent. Yue Chuntao simply nailed it.
"Why are you silent? Don't you feel happy for your young miss? She's about to reap the benefit she invested in, after all." Yue Chuntao asked.
Qin Mei sighed and said. "To tell you the truth, I don't agree with this approach from the moment I know his identity. But who am I to persuade her?"
Yue Chuntao stared at Qin Mei for a while and asked. "Do you know why you are still alive?"
Qin Mei thought for a moment and shook her head. The moment Yun Lintian knew the truth, she had already prepared to die. Surprisingly, he just left without saying anything. This puzzled her a bit.
Yue Chuntao smiled and said. "Of course, he wants you to notify your young miss… Well, maybe you should tell her to wash her neck clean."
She got up from her seat and prepared to leave. Just as she was about to step out of the room, she turned around and said. "Although he had never shown anything to me much during these twenty years we spent together, I can tell you that your young miss has made a huge, huge mistake by touching his people."
As she finished her sentence, she turned around and left directly, leaving behind Qin Mei, whose face turned pale…
