Chapter 39: Take the Initiative!

s down his spine.Now, the hazy and unfathomable light emanating from the divine tablet gave Yun Hao a feeling of boundless uncertainty. After staring at it for a while, Yun Hao felt as if his soul had...Kumu Dao suddenly appeared, giving Ling Feiyu no time to react. He directly asked her if she knew Ling Guang from Lin Feng County!

Ling Guang is Ling Feiyu's father; Yun Hao knows this.

Ling Feiyu was suddenly reminded of her deceased father's name, her expression stiffened for a moment, and then she immediately shook her head and said, "Never heard of him."

Kumu Dao's eyes turned sinister, and he smiled: "Ling Guang from Lin Feng County was an old acquaintance of mine. It's a pity that his entire family perished some years ago.

"

"I'd heard he had a daughter. Seeing you today, I thought you looked very much like Ling Guang and almost mistook you for an old acquaintance."

Ling Feiyu had already regained her composure: "Kumu Dao Ren was mistaken."

Yun Hao's mind raced with thoughts.

This withered wood man is deeply cunning. From Ling Feiyu's just-now performance, he must have observed it thoroughly. At this moment, the withered wood man has undoubtedly confirmed that Ling Feiyu is the daughter of Ling Guang.

How this matter will be settled, Yunhao needs to communicate with his father first. After all, he doesn't know the ins and outs of the Ling family extermination.

Yun Hao looked at Ku Mu Dao Ren and said, "Ku Mu Dao Ren, my father is entertaining Xu Yin Dan Shi. If you are not averse to it, why not join us for a drink"

A sneer appeared on the withered face of Daoist Kumu: "Then there's no need. If there's an opportunity in the future, I'll come to your Kuangjian Martial Arts Hall as a guest."

That said.

Ku Mu Dao Ren turned and left.

Yūn Hào held Lǐng Fēi Yǔ's hand and said calmly, "Let's go. Let's find my father first."

………

Yun Hao and Ling Feiyu, the two of them, came to the dining hall.

The wine and dishes were just served, their steaming aroma filling the air.

Yunttian Kuo and Xu Yin had clearly already had two cups, and the two were chatting very happily.

"Hao'er, Feiyu, why don't you come over and take your seats"

Yunttian Kuò urged.

Ling Feiyu looked absentminded and out of sorts, his mind clearly elsewhere. He had no appetite for food at all.

Yunhao: "Father, there's something I want to discuss with you."

Yun Tiankuo: "You rascal, you don't know any manners at all. Finish your meal first and then we'll talk. Don't be disrespectful to Master Xu!"

Yun Hao looked at Xu Yin.

Xu Yin understood, and immediately stood up, saying: "Master Yun Guan, I suddenly remembered that there are important matters to attend to at Bao Dan Lou. I can't delay any longer. Today's kindness from Master Yun Guan, I am deeply grateful, but I am very sorry, I must hurry back."

Is it easy to please Yunhao

Last time, Yun Tiankuo invited him to have dinner. Yun Hao said he had something to do, and he left immediately.

.

Today, after a few sips of wine, he was sitting by the table. The food and drinks were already served, but Yunhao had something to attend to... He could only honestly and proactively say his goodbyes...

Yun Tiankuo's face flushed with embarrassment. "Shifu Xu... this..."

Xu Yin laughed enthusiastically, "There's plenty of time ahead. Let's make plans to meet again another day and have a good drink, until we're completely tipsy!"

Waiting for Xu Yin to leave.

Yun Tian Kuo's face was gloomy, and he glared at Yun Hao: "You good-for-nothing brat, you don't know any rules!"

Although he spoke in a harsh tone, there wasn't a hint of anger in his expression. After all, he was just boasting about his precious son, who had finally brought him some face!

Yun Hao: "Father, let's move to a different place to talk."

Yun Tiankuo's expression tightened, realizing that things might be more serious than he thought. Seeing Ling Feiyue's unnatural expression, he immediately said, "Come with me!"

Then.

Three people entered a secret room in the Crazy Sword Martial Arts Hall.

Yun Hao didn't beat around the bush, and he got straight to the point. He told everything about Gu Mu Dao Ren.

Yun Tiankuo's face changed drastically, and he said with annoyance: "It's all my fault. I was so excited after disciplining Yun Haisheng that I completely forgot about this."

When the old man first arrived, he inquired about Feiyu's background and mentioned Lin Feng County... If I had reminded Feiyu in time, she would have been prepared!

He felt extremely guilty.

Ling Feiyu, with a mind in turmoil, said:

"Uncle Yun, this isn't your fault. Even the most meticulous plans can have a loophole. I just...want to know the truth about what happened when our Ling family was wiped out!"

Yún Hào also said: "Father, it's time to say this. Fei Yu and I are already able to face things together."

Yun Tiankuo hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, fine, I'll tell you!"

Then.

Yuntai Kuo took out a wooden box from his storage ring.

He opened the wooden box, inside of which, wrapped in a black cloth, was something the size of a palm.

The boundless sky unfurled, revealing a token hidden beneath the black cloth.

This token, on one side blood red, on the other, is etched with a picture of a blue face and fangs.

Only a single token filled the entire secret room with a murderous aura.

Before Yun Hao or Ling Feiyu could ask, Yun Tiankuo took the initiative to say, "Back then, Ling Guang sent me a message, urging me to go to an abandoned mountain shrine outside Lin Feng County."

When I arrived at the appointed place, I found that Brother Lingguang was seriously injured, and young Feiyu was unconscious.

Ling Guang's brother entrusted Fei Yu to me, urging me to leave with Fei Yu immediately. Before I could even ask what was going on, assassins arrived.

Brother Lingguang paid the price of his life to severely wound the assassin. Then, I followed up with a sword strike, killing the assassin. This token was found on the assassin.

Later, I infiltrated the county of Lin Feng and learned that the Ling family had been reduced to ruins a few days prior. All members of the Ling family, guards, and servants were killed in a brutal massacre.

Then I immediately left, bringing Feiyu back to Liuyun City, and publicly declared that Feiyu was from Hanshan City...

This is the time.

Ling Fei's eyes were red-rimmed, clutching the token tightly. Intense hatred burned within her, uncontrolled and fierce.

This token is the only clue to the Ling family's annihilation!

This matter has always been a thorn in Ling Feiyue's heart. Now that she has the clue, she can't wait to launch an investigation and clear her family's name.

Hundreds or even thousands of people, demanding justice!

The sky is vast.

He sighed and continued, “Over the years, I’ve been secretly investigating as well. But Liuyun City is just a remote town in the Qingfeng Empire. There’s no trace of this token whatsoever.”

As for that withered wood Taoist who appeared today, he doesn't seem like a good person. So, Feiyu, you must be careful not to be deceived. If he appears again, no matter what he says, don't listen to him!

Yun Hao tightly grasped Ling Feiyu's hand and said, "Calm down first, let me see the token."

Ling Feiyu remained silent, but she also handed the token to Yun Hao.

Yun Hao held the token, sensing it carefully. A faint wisp of energy within it was caught by him.

After all, this was a token that had been placed for over ten years. Some of the energy had dissipated very severely, but fortunately, Yun Hao's sensing ability was extraordinary, which allowed him to perceive it.

This wisp of breath is very similar to the one I sensed on the old man from Kumu Dao.

Yun Hao immediately had a 90% certainty that Gu Mu Dao Ren was connected to the power represented by this token!

However, Yun Hao did not say it out loud.

If it were spoken aloud, given Ling Feiyu's personality, she might just charge in and kill him.

Ling Feiyu is not the opponent of that withered wood Taoist!

Even his father, Yun Tian Kuo, couldn't stand against Ku Mu Dao Ren!

Moreover, Yun Hao was certain that even if Ling Feiyu had denied it just now, Kumu Dao Ren would have definitely already confirmed that Ling Feiyu was the daughter of Ling Guang from Lin Feng County.

Since Kumu Dao Ren has set his sights on Ling Feiyu, Yun Hao will absolutely not allow him to harm her.

Therefore, the best way is to take the initiative and strike swiftly to eliminate this threat before it spawns further complications!ng burst into laughter and said, "You are the most outstanding disciple among all my students. To be honest, if I were to kill you with my own hands, as a master, I would feel quite heartbroken! Hahah...
