Helian Mountain is just a small mountain.
It is not as endless as the Daliang Mountains, nor as high and steep as the Thousand Snow Peaks. Some of them are just small hills that are neither high nor low. They look ordinary and featureless.
Ling Miaoyin's steps were as fast as flying, her jade feet lightly touched the mountain road, and one step covered a distance of about ten feet.
Today is the day of Ling Ruoyin's appointment.
This is also the moment that Ling Miaoyin is most looking forward to right now.
She must ask the other party carefully, why does she know so many things about herself?
Xiaolianzhuang, Huzhou, jade pendant, sword manual...
And...the fire phoenix pattern on the baby's body...
How did she know this?
And her jade pendant...
These questions have been bothering her for days.
But today, it’s finally time for answers.
Thinking of this, Ling Miaoyin couldn't help but speed up her pace up the mountain.
But because of this, she was allowed to explore her surroundings.
Just behind, about ten feet away from Ling Miaoyin, everyone in the Jiulong Mansion except Lin Dao was present.
Everyone restrained their energy and followed Ling Miaoyin closely while maintaining a certain distance.
Suddenly, Huo Yuanji sneezed for some unknown reason.
"Shh..." Everyone turned around and acted in unison.
Huo Yuanji smiled helplessly. But suddenly I felt a cold wind blowing behind me.
It's so cold that it makes the hair stand on end!
The rest of the people also felt the same cold wind in the next moment, and they secretly used their internal energy to be careful and vigilant.
The cold wind is getting closer!
Everyone even felt that there was a familiar wave of internal energy in the wind!
The next moment, Xue Tianhan shook his head helplessly.
Then he said silently to the empty space behind him, "What are you doing?"
Everyone was astonished when they saw several figures looming in the air behind them.
One of them, with silver hair and white robe, is the Ice King!
"Senior Ice King, Master, Senior Sword Master, why are you here?"
Chen Yutian asked with a hint of surprise.
The person who came was none other than the Five Saints who had been added to the Thief Saint.
The three saints, Wu Kuang, Wu Sheng and Yun Sheng, had left the Barbarian Kingdom yesterday.
The Thief Saint originally wanted to leave, but he refused to return to the Thieves' Gate. He insisted on following his apprentice well, lest he be kidnapped one day without knowing it.
Although Tang Fengling was speechless about this, she let him go.
Dragon Lord smiled and asked, "Then why are you here?"
Chen Yutian and others looked at each other, then smiled helplessly.
They thought it was strange because they accidentally saw Ling Miaoyin sneaking out of the Tianlang Palace through the back door, so they started to follow her.
Could it be...that they are the same?
Bing Wang smiled at Xue Tianhan and said: "You silly boys, although the girl can't care about it right now, but you are just following her like this, do you think you were discovered too late?"
Everyone was speechless.
Admittedly, with Ling Miaoyin's current martial arts skills, the chance of them being discovered like this is indeed very high.
But there is nothing we can do about it!
The sword master sighed and said to everyone: "Okay, you all come over."
Everyone was slightly startled! Look at each other!
Sure enough...
Immediately, I heard Bing Wang laugh and say: "Don't act like you are a stranger. We are also human beings, and we should gossip a little!"
Everyone looked to the sky - sure enough!
Xue Tianhan turned away as if he didn't know him.
It's so embarrassing...
"Come on, let me take you for a ride! You will be discovered sooner or later."
Long Zun also smiled awkwardly and was speechless.
Chen Yutian pondered for a moment and nodded.
Their martial arts are similar to Ling Miaoyin, so they are in danger of being discovered.
But the skills of Long Zun and others have already transcended their realm, and even if she were standing next to Ling Miaoyin, she wouldn't notice.
So, under the cover of the five idle and panicked saints, the group continued to follow Ling Miaoyin.
…
…
"You came really early."
When Ling Ruoyin showed up as promised, Ling Miaoyin had been waiting for a long time.
"It's actually her?" Everyone who was following secretly in the dark was secretly surprised.
No one expected that the person Ling Miaoyin sneaked out to meet would turn out to be a saint from the Futian Sect.
"Why did they meet?" Ice King was also a little curious.
Chen Yutian was thoughtful.
The sword master looked at him, silent, and just sighed.
Without any extra words, Ling Miaoyin went straight to the topic.
"You said that today you can answer all the questions in my heart. So I came very early."
"You are really direct." Ling Ruoyin shook his head slightly.
"Because I have nothing to say to you people from the Futian Sect." Ling Miaoyin said coldly, her tone as emotionless as an iceberg.
"Are you really heartless?"
Ling Ruoyin smiled sweetly, "But you are right. Tell me, what do you want to ask?"
"Why do you know where I was picked up?"
"And that set of sword manuals. I have never shown them to anyone except my master. Why do you know how to use them?"
"Also, why do you have something exactly like this jade pendant on your body?"
Ling Miaoyin asked three questions in a row.
"It's so direct." Ling Ruoyin smiled secretly.
Ling Miaoyin said nothing.
Ling Ruoyin sighed softly, took off the jade pendant from her waist, and said, "Let's start with this jade pendant."
The jade pendant in the shape of a phoenix shines brightly in the sunlight.
"Let me tell you a story."
Ling Ruoyin sighed and spoke.
"I have worn this jade pendant since I was a child. Because it is the only relic left to me by my mother."
"What I want to tell you is my mother's story."
Ling Ruoyin gently put away the jade pendant in her hand and said slowly: "This is also a story I heard from others."
"My mother was once the most talented descendant of the Kong Clan. The Kong Clan at that time, like the current descendants of the Eight Great Saint Clan, chose to remain anonymous and live in seclusion. Before my mother awakened her bloodline, she did not know that she was the Eight Great Saints. Descendants of the holy clan Kong clan.”
"And just one month before my mother was about to awaken the bloodline of the Kong Clan, she met my father, who was still the young master of the Futian Sect at the time."
"My mother fell in love with my father very quickly."
"But she doesn't know that a disaster is about to befall the Kong clan."
"On the night when my mother awakened to the blood of the Kong Clan, a group of masked men in black entered the Kong Clan and slaughtered the entire Kong Clan. Mother was saved from death because her father happened to call her outside to admire the moon that night. Death calamity."
"By the time she returned, the entire Kong Clan had become a ruins of fire. She lost all her relatives overnight."
"Only my father is left."
Speaking of this, Ling Ruoyin paused deliberately.
Ling Miaoyin still didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, as if asking her why she didn't continue talking.
Ling Ruoyin showed an unclear smile and continued to talk.
"After that night, my father became my mother's only support. He promised to help my mother find the murderer and take revenge. Since my mother had no one to rely on, she followed him back to the Futian Sect. It didn't take long for the two to get married and become husband and wife. .”
"Not long after, the previous leader, my grandfather, abdicated, and my father naturally became the new leader. A few years later, my mother became pregnant."
"But it was at this time that my mother accidentally learned from several members of the cult that the murderer who massacred the entire Kong Clan was the Futian Sect!"
Hearing this, Ling Miaoyin's eyes flashed with surprise!
Ling Ruoyin smiled and said: "Are you surprised? But that's the fact. The person who planned all this back then was the former leader, my grandfather. Although my father knew about it, he had no way to stop it and could only secretly steal my The mother cried out to save her from death!"
"My husband and father-in-law turned out to be the accomplices and culprits of everything. This incident shocked my mother greatly!"
Ling Ruoyin stated, her tone slightly low.
In the darkness, everyone in Jiulong Mansion also had some feelings.
A few girls, in particular, almost screamed in surprise.
Only Chen Yutian, after hearing this, touched his chin and began to ponder.
"What are you thinking about?" Long Zun asked.
Chen Yutian pondered, "I'm thinking that the Futian Sect destroyed the whole clan of the Kong Clan. Could the reason be related to the Holy Land?"
"This... I'm not sure about the specifics!" Huo Yuanji shook his head, "But I think it's about the same."
"If this is the case, then is it really because of his intolerance that the current leader of the Futian Sect can save the woman from the Kong Clan?" Chen Yutian suddenly said.
"What are you talking about?" Xuan Xi said, "Of course it is! Otherwise, how could Yi Futian Sect's behavior style let a girl go?"
"Is this really the case?" Chen Yutian asked.
His eyes were always fixed on Lin Feifei.
"You mean... that saint's mother, like Miss Lin, is most likely the key left by the Futian Sect deliberately to open the Holy Land with blood?"
Xue Tianhan suddenly spoke.
Chen Yutian nodded slightly, "This possibility is also possible."
The rest of the people were taken aback, and then nodded one after another.
Indeed, this possibility exists.
"You mean her father has been lying to her mother all this time?" Xuan Xi asked.
Chen Yutian shook his head slightly, "I didn't mean that."
"I don't know if the story she told is true. But it's obvious that Ling Ruoyin concealed some of the facts."
"According to my speculation, this part of the facts should involve the core part of the Futian Sect's entire plan. That's why she deliberately concealed it."
"However, there is nothing we can do about it. It is impossible for her to tell such a thing to someone who is hostile to her."
Chen Yutian smiled bitterly and looked at Ling Ruoyin.
Ling Ruoyin continued: "After my mother was severely hit, she knew she was no match for my father and grandfather, so she fled the Futian Sect headquarters while she was nearly ten months pregnant. But...my father, he is very I soon found out about my mother’s departure, and soon found out that my mother was hiding in Xiaolianzhuang in Huzhou.”
"Xiaolianzhuang?" Ling Miaoyin's expression changed slightly.
Ling Ruoyin smiled as if nothing had happened, and then spoke.
"And my mother, not long after leaving the Futian Sect, gave birth to a pair of twins in a family in Xiaolian Village."
"Twins?" After hearing this, the expression on Ling Miaoyin's face finally changed.
"That's right. They are twins."
Ling Ruoyin smiled slightly, then turned his back to Ling Miaoyin and stood.
"However, not long after the child was born, my father led people from the Futian Sect to chase him. At that time, my mother left with her two newborn babies in order not to disturb the family who was rescuing her. .”
"But she didn't go long before she was chased by Futian Jiao's men."
"But it was at this time that the mother made a shocking decision. She placed one of the twins in a place where other people in Xiaolianzhuang were concentrated, and then left with the other child."
"But it didn't take long for her to be found by my father himself."
"Perhaps out of guilt for my mother, my father didn't say much. He just asked her to take the child back to Futian Sect. He didn't ask any questions about the rest."
"But my mother's escape during pregnancy caused some damage to her body, so she passed away a few years after she returned."
Speaking of this, Ling Ruoyin suddenly sighed again.
Ling Miaoyin looked at her, but her eyes were unexpectedly calm.
"Before she left, she told me all these things, including her confession to the child she left behind in Xiaolian Village."
"She said that she was indeed sorry for the child, but her idea at the time was just that she didn't want her two children to become victims of the Futian Sect's plan, so she deliberately left the child in Xiaolian Village. Because there were often people walking around in Xiaolianzhuang, she believed that the child would be adopted by a family in Xiaolianzhuang and grow up healthy and happy..."
Having said this, Ling Ruoyin took a deep breath and said:
"The mother told the child who stayed with her that she left a piece of the same jade pendant on the other child to prove the child's identity."
"The child she left behind was me."
Ling Ruoyin suddenly turned her face.
"And the child left behind in Xiaolian Village is you! My sister!"
As soon as Ling Ruoyin finished speaking, she saw Ling Miaoyin, who was a little excited because of these words, suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Ling Ruoyin, motionless!
There was even a hint of shock that disappeared in a flash!
"How is this going?"
In the darkness, everyone in Jiulong Mansion, including the Five Saints, looked at Ling Ruoyin in great surprise!
"She, her face..." Xuan Xi pointed at Ling Ruoyin's face and looked at Chen Yutian.
Chen Yutian nodded slightly, with a look of shock on his face!
The scene in front of me happened too suddenly and too unbelievably!
Suddenly, at this moment, Ling Ruoyin's face turned around again was exactly the same as that of Ling Miaoyin standing opposite her!
