Chapter 347: Chapter 216: Yu Yalan: Where is Ling Changqing?

"...Aunt, this should be the place, right?"

Dressed in a bright red Feathered Robe, Yu Yalan—her skin whiter than snow and her bearing utterly graceful—studied the land below and murmured.

Yu Ruoshuang, a woman of gentle temperament and scholarly grace, focused her gaze on the surroundings. After a long moment, she gave a slight nod.

"Although this Changqing Continent was only recently formed, the power of its ley lines, feng shui, and Destiny is indeed far stronger than that of a landmass of comparable size."

The stunningly beautiful and exceptionally wise woman said softly, "So, this is simply not the kind of presence a Golden Core Level faction should be able to command!"

Beside them, the radiant and captivating Yu Youqin, whose legs were long and slender, grew excited at once and asked:

"So that guy must be hiding here, living the good life? Right?"

’That bastard, Ling Changqing! He made us search so hard for him!’

Yu Ruoshuang smiled. "If what you saw and heard the last time you were here was accurate, then the probability that he’s hiding here... is likely around fifty or sixty percent."

Yu Yalan mused, "Ling Changqing? Changqing Continent? I always assumed that name was an alias, but it seems I was mistaken."

"Alright, let’s get a move on, shall we?"

Yu Youqin urged impatiently, "Let’s hurry and meet that Female Patriarch. We don’t need to feel her out—we’ll just lay our cards on the table. I refuse to believe she’d dare to deny it!"

Yu Yalan nodded. "Exactly. If she refuses to admit it, we’ll just stay here and won’t leave!"

Yu Ruoshuang chuckled. "Don’t threaten her. After all, we’ll all be serving him together in the future. It’s better to be a little more gentle."

The Flying Ship silently accelerated, heading toward the interior of the Changqing Continent.

Several hours later, the Ling Family’s main headquarters came into view in the distance; even the shimmering barrier of the Mountain Protection Array was clearly visible.

"Oh? Is someone breaking through to the Core Formation Realm?"

Yu Yalan remarked with a hint of surprise, "Judging by the scale and stability of this Spiritual Energy Vortex, there’s no doubt this will be another Golden Core Master!"

"And if I’m not mistaken, the one achieving Core Formation this time must be another Female Cultivator, and she’s undoubtedly connected to Ling Changqing!"

Yu Ruoshuang said softly.

The three women exchanged a smile, growing even more certain of their speculation.

"It looks like she’ll need a few more days to finish. We might as well wait."

Yu Youqin said, maneuvering the Flying Ship to pull back a little to avoid any misunderstanding on the part of the Ling Family.

Seven days later, once the Spiritual Energy Vortex had completely vanished, the Protective Array around the family headquarters finally lowered its alert level.

However, the Ling Family leadership was still not receiving any outside visitors.

After another ten days, Ling Bingyun, having formed her Golden Core and stabilized her new Realm, emerged from the Cultivation Chamber to meet with Ling Changqing. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

At this time, Ling Qiyue, Tang Qiu Yao, and the other women were already waiting in the main hall—a dazzling assembly of beauties, their colorful robes like a garden in full bloom.

"Senior Sister, the three Female Cultivators from the Yu Family sent a formal request for a meeting. They say they have something important to discuss with you face-to-face!"

Tang Qiu Yao said as she walked in, her fine eyebrows deeply furrowed.

"Which Yu Family?"

Ling Qiyue asked, surprised.

"What other Yu Family could it be? The number one family in Yuzhou, of course—at least, the one that’s publicly acknowledged!"

Xue Qingtan frowned. "I have a bad feeling about this. Don’t tell me they’ve figured something out..."

"I agree. And this is going to be a difficult situation to handle," Meng Feiyu added. With their keen intuition, the two of them had already prepared for the worst.

Ling Qiyue’s brow furrowed for a moment before smoothing out again. "There’s no need to be overly concerned. Let’s just hear what they have to say."

’With the influence of Ling Changqing’s supreme Destiny,’ she thought, ’it’s unlikely these three from the Yu Family are here to take him by force. Otherwise, the Yu Family’s experts would have surrounded this place long ago.’

"We’ll go with you."

Xue Qingtan and Meng Feiyu moved to stand behind Ling Qiyue. With their hidden techniques, they weren’t afraid even if the three from the Yu Family turned hostile.

Ling Qiyue didn’t refuse. The three of them went to the Inner Study, where she instructed a Maid to show the guests in.

A moment later, Yu Ruoshuang, Yu Yalan, and Yu Youqin entered together.
