“Ling Yun…”

“Yes?”

“Hug me with both hands, don’t cover me from the rain. I like the feeling of the raindrops pattering down on me… It feels refreshing…”

Cao Shanshan had finally been saved. Even this ordinary occurrence was like God’s gift to her.

Ling Yun smiled and wrapped his arms around Cao Shanshan’s slender waist. However, he did secretly infuse some pure Yang True Qi into Cao Shanshan’s body to keep her warm and to eliminate the accumulation of Yin Qi in her body.

Figures shot out from the dense treetops in the torrential rain. It was Cui Lao and Pierce.

Pierce didn’t know Qinggong, but he was fast as a member of the Blood Clan. The branches of the trees might be broken as he stepped on them, but he didn’t fall.

Pierce transformed in his pursuit of speed. Pierce shot up into the sky and flew in Ling Yun’s direction.

Cui Lao couldn’t keep up with Pierce’s flying speed. He flew directly under Ling Yun when he was about fifty meters above the ground.

Ling Yun landed on Pierce’s back steadily, as though he was on the ground.

“Are we back on land? Ling Yun, how did you become so powerful?”

Cao Shanshan opened her eyes again. It was night and dark, but it was totally different from the absolute darkness of the cave. Cao Shanshan could now open her eyes completely.

Cao Shanshan was totally in awe of Ling Yun’s performance this time!

He broke through a half-meter thick stone door, had the Water Talismans and Fire Talismans, and jumped down two hundred meters with her without harm!

The heaven-defying boy from three months back had advanced to such a stage!

“Uh… It’s still so high up…” Cao Shanshan glanced around and exclaimed.

“There’s still some distance to the ground… Shanshan, look under your feet!” Ling Yun said with a grin.

Only then did Cao Shanshan lower her head. The first thing that came into her view was naturally Pierce’s black wings.

“Ah!”

Cao Shanshan shrieked and grabbed Ling Yun’s neck. She jumped out of her skin and wrapped her body around Ling Yun’s tightly. No part of her body was on Pierce.

A human-sized bird. Cao Shanshan knew it was a member of the Blood Clan just by looking at the wings.

“Shanshan, don’t be afraid. Pierce is an Earl of the Blood Clan, but he’s also my loyal servant…”

Ling Yun then looked at Cao Shanshan and said tenderly, “The kind that you get after The Embrace…”

Cao Shanshan relaxed and then immediately tensed up again. “T-then, are you also…”

Ling Yun snickered. “What are you thinking? Don’t worry, your hubby is still a human, not a monster. It’s a long story. I’ll tell you slowly.”

The rain drenched Cao Shanshan’s clothes, which stuck to her hot body. Her twin peaks pressed tightly against Ling Yun’s chest, causing Ling Yun to lose focus.

Ling Yun deliberately tried to tease Cao Shanshan. “Shanshan, you became skinnier, but your chest became bigger and perkier…”

Cao Shanshan was embarrassed. She let her legs slip down as her pale face reddened. “Rubbish, why are you still so perverted!” she said, glaring at Ling Yun.

“It’s my style to flirt anytime, anywhere…” Ling Yun replied casually. He felt at ease after sensing that Cao Shanshan had finally relaxed.

Pierce flew lower and met Cui Lao coming from the forest of the mountain.

Ling Yun was very moved upon seeing how Cui Lao had a sword in his right hand and an umbrella in his left. They landed.

Cui Lao flew to them, opened the umbrella, and held it over their heads.

“Shanshan, this is Cui Lao. He’s here to help me save you.”

Cao Shanshan curtsied. “Cao Shanshan from the Cao Family in Beijing is honored to meet Cui Lao. I’m thankful to you for saving my life.”

She was definitely the fourth young master’s future wife. Cui Lao didn’t dare to take the curtsy and thus flashed to their side. “No, no, please don’t stand on ceremony. As long as you’re safe!”

Ling Yun took the umbrella from Cui Lao and sheltered Cao Shanshan. “This is a place of contention, we shouldn’t stay here for long. Cui Lao, how did you get here?”

Cui Lao nodded. “Fourth Young Master, the car is on the road at the foot of the mountain.”

“Pierce will lead the way from the above. Let’s go!”

Ling Yun carried Cao Shanshan and dashed in the direction of the car, while Cui Lao followed closely behind.

…

“Bad news! Someone entered the cave! Cao Shanshan has been saved!”

Chen Jianwei was high up in the sky, nearly through the Huairou District when his face distorted in anger!

Technology had improved by leaps and bounds every day. Even a small neighborhood parking lot had a security system, so why would Chen Jianwei’s lodging not have anything?

Ling Yun clearly knew the way to open the stone door, but he still used the blade to slash it into pieces. It was so that Chen Jianwei would know!

Ling Yun didn’t need to refrain from shooting at the rat for fear of breaking the vase once Cao Shanshan was back by his side!

There was an advanced alarm system in Chen Jianwei’s coffin. He was alerted immediately when it was burnt.

Chen Jianwei was as angry as he was surprised. He really thought that no one could find such a secluded hiding place!

What made Chen Jianwei most anxious was that Cao Shanshan was rescued. How could he not be angry that his cooked dove had flown away?

Chen Jianwei turned back in mid-air towards his abode in Yunmeng Mountain, leaving only a trace of black lightning in the dark night sky!

Chen Jianwei used the communicator to notify his family to send people over at the same time!

“Father, Cao Shanshan has also been rescued. Send as many people as you can to Yunmeng Mountain!”

After his message to Chen Haipeng, Chen Jianwei sent a message to Grand Duke Dracula, who had already arrived in the Chen Family’s villa. Lastly, Chen Jianwei ordered the remaining twelve Barons to hurry over as well!

Chen Jianwei was nearly mad with anger!

Cao Shanshan might be one person, but her fresh blood could allow him to raise his rank to that of a Grand Duke. Moreover, his Blood Demon Skill might even be able to reach Xiantian Realm Level Nine! The importance of Cao Shanshan to Chen Jianwei couldn’t be emphasized enough!

Chen Jianwei could have never imagined that he would make so many preparations and take so many precautions, even against his own family, only to be thwarted by Ling Yun!

His nest was even destroyed!

Chen Jianwei rushed back the way he came, his huge wings flapping desperately. After only a few minutes, he approached the foot of the Yunmeng Mountain, his figure blending into the mountains.

Chen Jianwei hovered around the mountains, far away from the city. His body flew low, desperately searching for clues.

At the same time, he madly sent messages to Chen Haipeng, the head of the family, continuing to ask him to send as many people as possible.

…

The Chen Family’s resort in the southwest of Beijing…

Lighting struck as twelve unnoticeable black bats flew up into the air and into the rain. They hovered for a moment to determine the direction before quickly flying towards the northeast.

In the ancestral home of the Chen Family, south of Beijing…

Grand Duke Dracula sat elegantly in the Chen Family’s living room. He had just arrived and was exchanging pleasantries with Chen Haipeng when they received the messages from Chen Jianwei.

“This isn’t good…” Dracula frowned slightly.

Grand Duke Dracula had lived for nearly a thousand years. His handsome face was aged with wrinkles. He had a hooked eagle nose, blue eyes, and fair skin. He was dressed in an elegant tuxedo and had a cane in his hand. He appeared elegant and filled with gentlemen style.

Chen Haipeng got up immediately and apologized to Dracula. He then excused himself and went into his room.

“Chen Jianhao, Chen Jianjie, your younger brother’s prey, Cao Shanshan, was rescued. The opponent must be someone formidable to be able to find such a place. Which of you will go?”

Chen Jianhao and Chen Jianjie were both thirty years old. They were the two masters at the pinnacle of Xiantian Realm Level Eight that Chen Haizhen mentioned. These two were the geniuses of the Chen Family.

“It’s likely the black-masked man who attacked our villa in the southern suburbs. Let me go and meet him…”

Chen Jianhao and Chen Jianjie exchanged glances before Chen Jianjie stood up voluntarily.

“Alright, you go. Bring more of our men. The geography of the Yunmeng Mountain is complex. They won’t be easy to find if they hide in such a great storm…”

Chen Jianjie shrugged. “Yunmeng Mountain…” He flew out after repeating it.

Chen Haipeng frowned slightly. “Sigh, Jianjie is a genius, but he’s too arrogant…”

“Father, Jianjie has the right to be arrogant, don’t worry!” Chen Jianhao laughed.

Chen Haipeng was uneasy these days. “No, I better send some good men with him!”

Outside, in the living room of the Chen Family, Grand Duke Dracula rose and walked over to the door with a cane. He waved his hand, and six little bats flew towards him and circled around him.

Dracula stretched out his pale hand and grabbed a bat. He spoke a few words to it and then let it go.

That bat flew up into the air and shrieked. Numerous bats flew up from the canopy and followed it up into the air!

A black mass formed and flew straight for Yunmeng Mountain!
