Chapter 580 Huo Clan's Visit
Chapter 580 Huo Clan's Visit
?
Meanwhile, seven people were waiting in the outer periphery of the Central Forest; they were Huo Ye and the six people from the Huo Clan.
At first, they wanted to go straight to meet Ling Yu'er, but Huo Ye told them to wait for the other cultivators to leave the Cultivator Peak first, especially since she knew that Ling Yun didn't want other cultivators to know the whereabouts of their residence.
"Why do we have to wait here, Ye'er? Haven't you stayed at their residence before?" Chen Qing asked Huo Ye.
Huo Ye nodded to her mother. "I've lived there before, but still, I can't come and go as I please, especially since I'm not part of them. Anyway, I've already contacted Yu'er, and she'll be here to pick us soon."
"I didn't expect that Ling Yun and the others live in the heart of this forest, and the other cultivators are not aware of it." Yan Zilan made a comment as she attempted to look inside using her senses, but Zhou Yu's formation naturally blocked her senses. "They even set up such a powerful formation, and my senses are unable to penetrate it."
"You'd better stop it, Sister-in-law." Huo Ye spoke to Yan Zilan as she shook her head. "Let alone you, even the ancestors would not be able to break through that formation without the permission of Ling Yun and the others."
"I still don't understand how those women could be willing to share a husband." Huo Ziqi suddenly said to them. "I admit that Ling Yun is handsome and powerful, but I still feel weird about their relationship."
Huo Rui had different thoughts than her twin sister. "Isn't their relationship natural? The stronger a cultivator is, the more wives they have, let alone Ling Yun, who is a dual cultivator."
"Well, that's true." Huo Ziqi answered her twin sister with a nod. "However, Ling Yun's number of women is overwhelming! If I don't count it wrong, he has at least 20 women by his side."
Suddenly, Huo Jun said to them. "Instead of all of you thinking about that, you should think about the matters between Ling Yun and the Chen Clan."
"Huh?" Yan Zilan and the others turned to him.
Huo Jun then told them. "My father-in-law told me that he suspected Ling Yun had killed Chen Hong, and Tang Zhiyi helped him to do it."
"Is that true, Husband?" Chen Qing asked with a raised eyebrow. "Why did Ling Yun kill my little brother? Is there a problem between them?"
"I did not know about that." Huo Jun answered his wife with a shake of his head. "However, your mother suspects that the trouble between them happened because of Wen Qing. After all, she was Chen Hong's ex-wife, and she has now become Ling Yun's woman."
Chen Qing's expression turned ugly after she heard that. Even though she didn't like Chen Hong, he was still her little brother, and she then turned to Huo Ye. "Do you know anything about this matter? After all, you have a good relationship with Wen Qing, and you two are like sisters."
Huo Ye sighed softly and nodded to her mother. "Honestly, I have known for a long time about the matter between Ling Yun and Chen Hong, and it was indeed because of Wen Qing."
"Tell me the truth, Ye'er." Chen Qing said this to his daughter again.
"My uncle-"
However, before Huo Ye could answer her mother's question, Ling Yu'er suddenly appeared before them, and she informed Chen Qing. "Grandma! A few months ago, Chen Hong ordered his men to gang up on Yun'er, and he also ordered them to throw him in the ravine. Fortunately, Sister Xi found him at the verge of death, and she immediately saved him, or else he would have met the king of hell now."
"What?" Chen Qing and the others screamed in shock upon hearing that. "Is that true? But why did Chen Hong do such a thing to Ling Yun?"
Ling Yu'er then told them about the whole matter between Ling Yun, Chen Hong, and Wen Qing.
Huo Yun and Huo Pojun sighed inwardly after they heard that. They also knew about Chen Hong's character, but they did not expect that he would do such a thing to Ling Yun when he was still an ordinary human.
On the other hand, the Huo Twins didn't think much of it, especially since they never liked Chen Hong, so they didn't care if their uncle died at Ling Yun's hands. Moreover, it was their uncle who had tried to kill him first, so they thought that it would be natural for him to take revenge on him.
However, Chen Qing felt angry and disappointed at the same time. She was disappointed that Chen Hong did such a thing to an ordinary human, but she was also angry with Ling Yun because he had killed her little brother.
Seeing her mother-in-law's expression, Yan Zilan directly patted her on the shoulder and said to her. "Mother, I know you feel angry at Ling Yun, but everything that happened was Chen Hong's fault, and his actions were truly disgraceful."
"I know, but-"
"Grandma, you better put those thoughts away." Ling Yu'er directly interrupted her grandmother. "Yun'er is such a person; he will repay kindness with kindness, but he will not hesitate to repay evil with evil. Plus, what can you do about it? Chen Hong is dead now, and I advise you not to find trouble with him, or you will regret it yourself."
Huo Yun sighed and said to his wife. "Wife, you'd better listen to Yu'er, especially since she knows Ling Yun far better than us. Moreover, we've personally witnessed his character during the competition, and I feel that he's definitely that kind of person."
Suddenly, Ling Yu'er said something that shocked them. "Anyway, Yun'er has a grudge against that slut, and he will definitely do something to her in the future."
"Hmm?" Huo Yun frowned upon hearing her words, and he naturally knew the meaning behind his granddaughter's words. "What exactly happened between Ling Yun and Lan'er?
"Back then, that slut sent Huo Yin to kill Yun'er, but she certainly failed to do her task and died at his hands." Ling Yu'er casually answered her grandfather's question.
Huo Yun took a deep breath and nodded in understanding; he had already asked Huo Lan about Huo Yin's disappearance himself, but she only told him that she sent her off to a dangerous place to look for an item, and she failed to retrieve it and died.
Chen Qing's face became even paler after she heard that, her brother had already died at Ling Yun's hands, and he was now also targeting one of her daughters.
Huo Jun then said to her niece. "Hey, Yu'er! Are you going to let him do something to Big Sis? Even if you're mad at her, she's still your mother."
"Why should I care about that slut?" Ling Yu'er asked back with an indifferent shrug.
"You-"
"Stop it, Husband." Yan Zilan immediately stopped Huo Jun as he shook her head. "Honestly, I've never liked Sister Lan's behavior myself; even now she's always spending time with those men. You may not have heard of it, but everyone in our clan always talks about her relationship."
"En, I agree with you, Sister-in-law!" Huo Rui said. "Big Sis Lan is really a slut, and I really don't like her!"
"Me too!" Huo Ziqi spoke as she raised her hand.
Huo Jun's face darkened upon hearing his sisters' words, and he turned to them. "You guys! Lan'er is your big sister, remember?"
"I don't care!" The Huo Twins answered simultaneously, and they then hugged Ling Yu'er's arm. "Little Niece! Take us to your residence now!"
Ling Yu'er felt helpless at their behavior, but she couldn't deny that the Huo Twins were her aunts. "Do you two really want to go to our place, Aunts?"
"Yes!" The Huo Twins nodded repeatedly. "Big Sis Ye already told us that your residence is really beautiful, so we want to see it in person."
"I'm coming with you." Huo Ye then asked Chen Qing and Yan Zilan. "Are you guys coming with us? Don't you two want to spend some time with Yu'er?"
"You two can go with them; Jun'er and I will return to our clan." However, Huo Yun immediately warned his wife. "Wife, I know how you feel about Ling Yun, but you better control yourself and don't get into trouble with him, and we'll talk things over after you guys come back."
"I know." Chen Qing answered as she nodded, and Ling Yu'er brought them to Yunlong Zuzhai straight away.
After they left, Huo Jun asked his father. "Are you going to tell my grandpa about Chen Hong's matter?"
"I won't tell your grandfather about Chen Hong." Huo Yun replied as he shook his head. "We both know that Ling Yun is powerful, and the Chen Clan will be perish like the Shui Clan if they fight him."
Huo Jun nodded in understanding and asked him again. "Then what about Big Sis Lan? Are you going to let Ling Yun do anything to her?"
Huo Yun sighed softly and answered him. "Let's return to our clan now, and I will discuss this matter with Lan'er first."
"All right." Huo Jun nodded to his father.
They immediately broke their returning jade and disappeared from the place.
