【408】The three years she was away



"Alright, stop being embarrassed here. I've already seen Wei Jie's strength. He's at the Heavenly Rank or even above. It's understandable that you can't beat him, but you have to tell me the cause and effect of the matter, right?"

"Hey? You damned girl, what do you mean by extenuating circumstances? It's embarrassing enough that you can't win, but you're so good that you're actually trying to make excuses for it? Are you our sister or not?"

Shen Si's unhappy speech made Ling Yuan speechless, "Fourth Brother, if I don't say this, what else can I say? Say that you deserve to lose? Say that your talent is not as good as others?"

"How can this be related to talent? None of us have bad talents, but Wei Jie has someone who gave him a backdoor. Where do you think his strong strength comes from?"

"Don't forget who his master is. And his two fellow apprentices, any one of them would be ranked high in the Dragon Empire. Wouldn't they use all the good resources for him?"

"No matter how good our talents are, it's useless if we can't absorb enough spiritual energy if we stay in the Four Continents all year round!"

Listening to the complaints of his brothers, Ling Yuan finally understood. They attributed Wei Jie's powerful strength to his going to the Dragon Empire to absorb spiritual energy?

Although this factor is not ruled out, she feels that talent still plays a big part, right?

For example, her talent in spiritual cultivation is far inferior to that of Gongzi Yan, and Gongzi Yan's knowledge of medicine and poisons can never catch up with hers. The same is true for her brothers. As for Wei Jie, even she has to admit that this guy really deserves to be the King of War!

"It seems you know his situation well?"

Su Yu nodded, "How could I not pay attention to him? After your body was taken away, this man was not sad at all, he even suddenly became enlightened and even removed the scar on his face. We were so angry at that time. My sister's whereabouts were unknown and her body was still warm, but he actually started to pay attention to his appearance. Could it be that he wanted to have affairs with willows?"

"So I charged at their door, and what was the result? Although neither side gained an advantage, we were four against one. Even though Wei Jie was seriously injured, he was still able to withstand the combined force of the four of us!"

Shen Si's words seemed to make Han Jin think of the battle situation on that day. He looked at Ling Yuan with a gaze as deep as the sea.

"It was from that day that we realized the true strength of this guy. But no matter how powerful he was, we never forgot to find him to avenge you. We would go to fight him from time to time. He never refused and we fought to our heart's content every time!"

"During this process, not only did our four strengths increase, but he also rose several levels. We were so angry at that time!"

"I came out to avenge my sister, but in the end, I became his practice target for no apparent reason!"

Speaking of this, Huamao was furious. "This Wei Jie is more than just a fraud. He is simply an old fox. He came here with this purpose from the beginning. No wonder every time we show up, he has a strange expression of 'Why did you come only now?'"

Seeing the frustrated looks of his brothers, Ling Yuan looked at them with sympathy, "So, you guys have been training with him a lot over the years?"

"What else can we do? We can't enter the Dragon Empire, so we can only get news about you from him. But he is so useless. He has not been able to find out your whereabouts for so many years. We always return disappointed. But now we realize that this shameless guy didn't have any news about you, he just didn't tell us!"

Ling Yuan immediately understood what Huamao was referring to. She was very depressed when this was mentioned. She thought that something really happened in Siyou Country and she was seeking help. She never thought that this was a trap that someone had dug, waiting for her to jump into!

"So how have you been these years, brothers?"

Han Shuo, who had been silent the whole time, finally had the chance to speak. "This is all thanks to my sister's advice. Our Fengchi Villa was one of the first organizations to build a protective wall and protect the river. It was precisely because of these protections that we were able to avoid a lot of trouble when the zombies broke out!"

"As well as the medicine you left behind, if someone is bitten, amputation will be carried out immediately, and many other plans were implemented immediately. Over the years, our Fengchi Villa has lost less than 500 people. All the villagers were evacuated from various places, and their families were also settled in our villa."

"When you are able, help the local residents. In short, if you can help one person, help one person!"

Ling Yuan looked at his brothers with gratitude and said, "You five brothers have worked so hard over the years. No wonder I saw so many makeshift huts when I passed by the back mountain just now. They were all refugees from nearby."

During the heyday of Fengchi Villa, the number of people had reached 2,000. After a few years, it lost 500 people, which was considered lucky compared to the completely destroyed City That Never Sleeps.

While Ling Yuan was grateful, he also thought of Yaowang Valley and Lingjiazhuang: "How are they doing?"

It was not until she was in the Dragon Empire that she learned from Mo Yin that Lingjiazhuang was actually a branch separated from the Ling family of the Dragon Empire. Although her brother did not tell her the reason, she could basically guess it.

Now I understand why Ling Wentian and Ling Wuya are away from home most of the time every year. Could it be because they have returned to the Dragon Empire?

In the past few years, she has only been focusing on cultivation and has not been able to take care of anything else. Although her brother has found out some information for her from various channels, which allows her to know enough about the people she cares about, how can words compare with living people?

Now that I have the opportunity to come to Fengchi Villa, I naturally want to learn more about it from other aspects.

"Lingjia Manor and Yaowang Valley are in a similar situation to us. They have been secluded from the world for a long time. Their losses should be smaller than ours. Moreover, the people of the Ling family do not seem to be in the Four Directions Continent. They should have gone to the Dragon Empire. The ones left behind are just some villagers."

"When you stopped breathing, Ling Wentian and Ling Yi came to see you in person. I don't know if they knew what poison you were poisoned with. I don't know where their confidence in you came from. They actually said that you might not be dead."

"But they never expected that a year later, your body would start to rot and stink. By the time they received the news and rushed over, you had already been kidnapped. Your brother was so angry that his eyes turned red. He fought with Wei Jie for three days and three nights. He was unconscious and seriously injured, and was taken away by your adoptive father."

"After that, they never came back. No one knows what they have been busy with these years. When the zombie poison broke out, Lingjiazhuang and Yaowang Valley, which have always been committed to saving lives and healing the wounded, did not show up. They have been in seclusion until now."

At this point, Ling Yuan's tears were already falling uncontrollably, "Brother, why do you have to do this? They are clearly disappointed and have left all around!"

"Don't cry, we are not telling you this to make you cry. You are alive and well now, and they are in the Dragon Empire. Isn't it a piece of cake to meet them?"

Ling Yuan wanted to hold back her tears, but the more she tried to hold back, the harder she cried. She didn't know why she felt so sad and wronged, but she just couldn't stop crying.

Finally, Su Yu stepped forward and changed the subject, "I heard that the black-clad female hero who saved Si Youguo from danger was you, my sister?"

Because the atmosphere was still there, Ling Yuan sniffed hard and wiped away the tears from her red eyes: "Bah, wasn't that all because I was tricked by that bastard Wei Jie? My brother, oh, my dear brother, received an order to choose two people to go to support Yan and Siyou at the same time, so I went. I didn't know that this was all planned by Wei Jie all along."

"He knew you were going?"

Ling Yuan shook his head. "I don't know. Anyway, with his strength, he is fully capable of fighting against those zombies. But he is still waiting for support from the Dragon Empire. Why do you think he is doing this?"

"Even if he didn't predict that I would go, he was waiting for me to go, because when my brother took me away, he clearly told him that I would come to him on my own in three years. He must have kept it in mind, right?"

"Bah! Shameless, so shameless. He didn't even tell us such an important thing. This man is so evil!"

"He has more than remembered it in his heart. He has clearly gone crazy. No wonder he has been trying to find out about you in the Dragon Empire all these years. It seems that he had already predicted that the person who took you away was from a family in the Dragon Empire."

"People like Wei Jie never do anything without confidence. Since he planned this, it is possible that he can guess that the family going on this expedition is very likely related to you."

"The Dragon Empire has been supporting the Four Continents for a long time. In the past two years, each family has been taking turns to join the battle. Now that the person he expects has not appeared, isn't he getting anxious? Especially when the three-year period is up, he will definitely burn his boats once and for all!"

A meeting that was supposed to be a good one turned into a meeting to complain about Wei Jie. Ling Yuan could hear the strong dissatisfaction of the brothers towards Wei Jie. It was enough to show that during the years when she was away, the brothers were really tormented and tortured by this big devil Wei Jie, right?

"Sister, have you ever met Shangguan Qingxi when you were in Siyou Country?"

When this person was mentioned, Ling Yuan's face instantly darkened, "No, brother, I don't want to mention this person."

Su Yu nodded in understanding, "I know, but there are some things I must tell you in advance. Shangguan was engaged to Wei Li not long ago. And Wei Li is my wife's brother. You..."

Ling Yuan knew about the news that Su Yu was going to marry Wei Tanya, and she immediately said to him, "Don't worry, brother. I already know about this matter, but I haven't congratulated you yet. Don't worry, I will personally make up for this great gift from my sister after this period is over."

"I have seen this little princess, she is very nice, but I didn't expect her to marry you. This shows how charming your brother is!"

Su Yu couldn't help but pinch her cheek. "You, stop teasing me. I'm actually looking forward to your gift, hahaha!"

"Of course. Once I, Ling Yuan, take action, we'll know whether it's possible or not!" As he said this, he did not forget to look at his other brothers.

"Although this is an extraordinary period, you brothers can't stay single like this, right? My eldest brother is already married, when are you going to get rid of your single status?"

Shen Si slapped her on the forehead, "You haven't settled your own affairs yet, and you still have the time to care about us? Men have ambitions to go far and wide, and it doesn't matter if they are older. But now is a time when the country is in danger, who has the time to do this? Trouble!"

"That's right. I still want to be free for a few more years. If this poison is not cured, I will never plan to get married. After all, with this poison around, no one can sleep peacefully!"

Huamao curled his lips, looking disgusted.

Ling Yuan thought about it and felt that it made sense. Besides, the current Sifang Continent has been devastated by zombies and beasts. The conditions of her brothers are not the best in the Sifang Continent, but they can be ranked in the top 20. Marriage is a big deal and should not be rushed.

After realizing this, she stopped forcing them. Huamao asked her about her strength. When she was about to answer, she heard the butler's announcement from outside: "My dear Miss, several young masters, there are two guests outside who want to see you."

Two guests?

Everyone realized who was coming in an instant, and Huamao's expression changed instantly.

"He's really haunting us, chasing us all the way to our territory. Humph, I want to see how rampant this Wei Jie can be in my territory. Brothers, follow me! If I don't beat Wei Jie so badly today that his mother won't recognize him, I'll take his last name!"

Ling Yuan's mouth twitched, "Fifth brother, please don't be impulsive, otherwise you will be in trouble!"

"Sister, are you telling me, your fifth brother, clearly that you are going to turn your elbow outward?"
