Feng Mingyuan's two consecutive weird behaviors gave Zhong Lingge a guess.
She had deliberately joked a few days ago, asking whether the fourth senior brother and Qin Fang were both named Qin. At that time, the fourth senior brother also said that Qin was a common surname in the Immortal Cultivation Domain. How could he recognize everyone named Qin.
At this moment, Zhong Lingge had to suspect that Qin Fang and the fourth senior brother were related, otherwise the second senior brother would not behave so strangely.
"Fourth Senior Brother, can you see Qin Fang's face clearly?"
"Can't see clearly."
Qin Guiyou's stern face was emotionless, and his tone was as calm and gentle as usual.
It was difficult for Zhong Lingge to see his inner thoughts from his face. After much thought, he decided to speak out.
"I suspect that Qin Fang and you are related to each other. There are ruins of the clan protection formation under Yehe Valley. It may be the clan territory of your family."
"Oh, that doesn't matter."
Not only did Qin Guiyou's eyes and expressions remain unchanged, but his spiritual aura also remained motionless, and his heartbeat and breathing were not disrupted. It was as if what he heard was about someone else and had nothing to do with him.
Zhong Lingge was not too surprised. The reaction of the fourth senior brother was reasonable, just like she didn't have much reaction when she learned about her life experience. She was just happy for a while when she learned about her mother's identity.
While the two were talking, the situation in the air battle changed again.
The evil cultivator who was fighting against Feng Mingyuan was cut off. The Jindan Taoist cultivators who had been in the rain and the wind saw this and shouted to him one after another, asking him to come quickly to support him.
Feng Ming couldn't show hesitation in front of others. His delay for so long was already the limit, and it would be unjustifiable if he didn't support him again.
Just as he turned around and flew toward the encirclement, black air suddenly exploded in the air, and turbulent air waves spread in all directions one after another.
The monks who surrounded Qin Fang had to fly back. One of them even grabbed Feng Mingyuan's sleeve and took him to a safe area behind.
"He's detonating his magic weapon!"
"Don't confront him head-on. If he blows up his golden elixir, we will all die!"
"Don't shout so loudly to remind him!"
Feng Mingyuan didn't think that Qin Fang would self-explode the golden elixir. He could practice evil skills to the golden elixir stage, and even miraculously had the possibility of advancing to Yuanying. How could such a person give up the hard work day and night and self-explode the golden elixir? Dan.
Abandoning one or two magic weapons may be to force everyone back and make it easier to escape.
That's fine.
Feng Mingyuan breathed a sigh of relief silently. It didn't matter who Qin Fang died in, but he couldn't die in his hands.
"No! He wants to escape!"
"Don't catch up, there is still a magic weapon that will explode!"
"Everyone, stop fighting and hide!"
Qin Fangdong used the teleportation talisman, but as soon as it was activated, he lost his aura and figure, making it impossible to catch up. The exploding third-level high-grade magic weapon was very powerful. The black air waves swept the surrounding spiritual energy, raising small vortex storms, and there was murderous intent everywhere.
The Jindan monks could only avoid the wind and waves and rush to the ground, hiding in the formation openings that the juniors quickly opened.
"Second Senior Brother! We are here!"
Zhong Lingge also opened a small passage and shouted loudly towards Feng Mingyuan in the air, not daring to get out of the formation.
The impact outside was dozens of times stronger than during the fight. Neither her physical body nor the sea of consciousness could withstand such a powerful attack. She would either be seriously injured or die as soon as she came out.
Fortunately, Feng Mingyuan recognized the aura of her formation disk. As she shouted, he quickly flew over, got into it, and once again activated the fifth-level barrier defense.
As soon as he sat down, Zhong Lingge asked directly: "Second senior brother, is Qin Fang a relative of fourth senior brother?"
Feng Mingyuan's eyes quickly glanced at Qin Guiyou, and saw that he was neither surprised nor angry. He knew that he had probably guessed the truth and didn't care much.
"Hey -" Feng Mingyuan still sighed. The fourth junior brother didn't care because he didn't know the full situation. If he knew, he might be as troubled as him. "Yes, this used to be the Qin family's clan. When I saw the invitation letter, I was sure that Qin Fang was the Qin Fang I knew."
"Who is he?" Qin Guiyou had almost no curiosity. If the junior sister hadn't kept mumbling, he wouldn't have even asked more.
In his mind, people are only divided into two types, one is his own kind and the other is not. He doesn't care about bloodline.
However, the second senior brother and the younger junior sister seemed to care.
Feng Mingyuan was silent for a moment and replied in a low voice: "He is your biological brother from the same mother."
Silence fell in the formation, and Zhong Lingge was so surprised that he was speechless. He thought they were just relatives, but turned out to be brothers.
There was no unnecessary emotion in Qin Guiyou's silence. He was just surprised for a moment, then nodded and said: "Now we have different paths, senior brother, don't worry about me."
“It would be great if I could not worry about it.”
Feng Mingyuan shook his head, with a rather complicated expression.
"It was he who carried you to escape the genocide. He escaped pursuit and was bullied and robbed. He finally made it to a safe city. You suddenly had a high fever and were in critical condition. It happened that Master took me to play in the city. We met. I heard about your situation and decided to take you in. Master originally wanted to place him in a nearby city, but he flatly refused and left simply. There was no news after that. "
Zhong Lingge couldn't help but sigh. People are always like this. Most of them are ordinary people who are born good or bad. They just go in different directions step by step in life, so the paths are very different.
Qin Fang left alone because he wanted to take on the family blood feud alone and not let his younger brother get involved. He chose the path that was the most difficult and most harmful to himself, but it was also the path that could achieve his goal the fastest.
"He is about the same age as me, not a few years older than me. Now I am still in the early stage of the Golden Core, and he has reached the perfection of the Golden Core and is about to become a baby." Feng Mingyuan fell silent again when he said this, unable to continue.
Both of them knew his unfulfilled intentions.
Qin Guiyou remained calm and composed after a brief absence. "He could have chosen to stay and grow up with me and share the blood feud together, but he didn't. He chose such a cruel shortcut. I wasn't forced to do it, and I can't blame anyone."
Zhong Lingge intellectually agrees with the fourth senior brother. Blood feud is really not a rare thing in the Immortal Realm. Many people are silently bearing the vengeance of genocide, massacre of the clan, and the murder of their father and mother.
If everyone took this as an excuse to take shortcuts and fall into evil ways, the human monks would have killed each other to the point of extinction.
"I have never thought about this." Feng Mingyuan had a natural affection for the relatives of his junior brothers and sisters. Once his emotions gained the upper hand, he did not think deeply about it. When he was not sure of his junior brother's true thoughts, he would instinctively give in.
When he met the Zhong family for the first time, he endured it again and again, smiling at the Zhong family's unreasonable troubles and insults. It wasn't until his junior sister expressed that she and the Zhong family were irreconcilable that he could no longer endure it.
"Senior brother, don't hold back next time you meet him." Qin Guiyou was resolute and resolute, with an unshakable firmness in his voice. "Killing him will be good for him, me and the Immortal Cultivation Domain!"
