Chapter 697: Chapter 697: Qing Wanrong’s Return
After they began living together, Lin Chen occasionally took time out of his cultivation to guide Qiu Ya’s practice.
Even though the core cultivation technique that Qiu Ya practiced was related to the Divine Soul, it so happened that Lin Chen was also skilled in this area.
In addition, Lin Chen also provided some elixirs for Qiu Ya, which were the Fourth-Grade Yun Ling Pills.
Seeing such precious elixirs, Qiu Ya was so shocked that she was at a loss for words. She initially did not want to accept them, but Lin Chen indicated that he had plenty of such elixirs, which ultimately put Qiu Ya at ease to accept them.
Lin Chen also took a trip outside to inquire about the situation of the Ten Great True Disciples from Qin Kaifeng and asked Qin Kaifeng to investigate which two of the Ten Great True Disciples were behind Qing Qizheng.
"It’s indeed troublesome for you!"
Lin Chen hadn’t expected that when he found Qin Kaifeng, the latter had already investigated everything thoroughly.
As a result, Lin Chen gained a deep understanding of the Ten Great True Disciples and the people behind Qing Qizheng.
Qin Kaifeng also explained other important figures within the Formation Sect, like the Forty-nine Peak Masters and various Law Enforcement Elders.
Qin Kaifeng also took the opportunity to boast about the Qin Family’s status within the Formation Sect, claiming their influence to be almost top-notch, unmatched by any other force.
Only then did Lin Chen realize how powerful Qin Kaifeng’s background was.
After understanding the situation, Lin Chen became aware of his current predicament. Behind Qing Qizheng were his sister Qing Wanrong and brother-in-law Lu Min.
Lu Min was the white-haired man among the four True Disciples who had ambushed Lin Chen on his return to the Formation Sect that day.
Qin Kaifeng mentioned that Qing Wanrong extremely doted on her brother, and now that Lin Chen had severely injured Qing Qizheng, he would likely provoke Qing Wanrong’s fury, which meant she would not let Lin Chen off easily.
"This guy, I had no grievances with him, and yet he dug such a big pit for me."
Remembering he had offended Qing Wanrong, Lin Chen felt uneasy. He speculated that this situation was likely a scheme of Yu Chuan.
Yu Chuan was potentially one of the two people whom Lin Chen had sensed in the clouds atop the mountain peak that day.
With things having reached this point, Lin Chen could only take one step at a time.
...
Inside the Formation Sect, at Qing Qizheng’s residence.
A tall and slender woman with a fiery figure hurriedly arrived at Qing Qizheng’s residence.
Learning that Qing Qizheng had been seriously injured, Qing Wanrong quickly returned to the Sect.
Seeing Qing Qizheng lying on the sickbed, wrapped in white bandages with only his eyes exposed, Qing Wanrong felt a surge of anger, and a powerful aura erupted from her, causing the furniture in the room to tremble.
"What exactly happened!?"
Qing Wanrong’s icy gaze shot toward the maid serving Qing Qizheng.
Unable to withstand the pressure, the maid immediately knelt on the ground, afraid to make a sound.
"Sister..."
"It was that guy Lin Chen..."
"He..."
"You must avenge me for this grievance!"
Although Qing Qizheng had his limbs severed, his limbs had not been destroyed. As a True Disciple, finding Heavenly and Earthly Treasures to reattach them was not difficult.
To deepen the hatred against Lin Chen, Qing Qizheng endured the pain for several days, deliberately not using expensive medicine to treat himself and allowing his injuries to worsen so that Qing Wanrong could see how severe his injuries were.
Qing Wanrong knew Qing Qizheng’s personality like the back of her hand.
However, no matter what, Qing Qizheng was still her younger brother. She couldn’t ignore his injuries.
Qing Wanrong promised Qing Qizheng that she would severely punish the person who hurt him, sever his limbs and hand him over for Qing Qizheng to deal with.
Afterward, Qing Wanrong left the room in a fury and ordered the maid to use a secret medicine to treat Qing Qizheng and restore his injuries.
Qing Wanrong was clearly aware that Qing Qizheng was intentionally not treating his wounds and acting pitiful.
But she could not tolerate Lin Chen causing such severe damage to her brother without taking her into account.
"Hua Ying!"
As Qing Wanrong stepped out of the room, she called out lightly, and several pink petals materialized behind her, soon taking the form of a woman’s figure.
"Master, what are your orders?"
Hua Ying looked at Qing Wanrong and asked quietly.
"Go investigate, get to the bottom of this, and also, I want to know all about Lin Chen, including everything about him before he entered the Formation Sect."
Filled with hatred, Qing Wanrong had warned Qing Qizheng that there were some major figures in the Formation Sect that should not be provoked.
She knew well of Qing Qizheng’s arrogance and often reminded him not to be too presumptuous.
Yet, while she cautioned him, she also protected his bullying behavior within the Sect.
This contradictory behavior led to Qing Qizheng becoming what he was today, and she was also to blame.
Upon hearing Qing Wanrong’s commands, Hua Ying transformed into a few peach blossoms and vanished on the spot.
Watching Hua Ying leave, Qing Wanrong’s eyebrows knitted tightly, forming a single line.
As a True Disciple, Qing Wanrong was naturally not foolish. She knew that Lin Chen’s cultivation was only at the seventh level of the Reverting Void Realm and that he shouldn’t have had the ability to hurt her brother.
Moreover, if the other party really had such strength, why didn’t he kill him?
The situation behind this incident was probably far more complicated than she imagined.
But regardless of who it was, anyone who hurt her brother would pay the price.
Hua Ying first planned to go to the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion to inquire about the specific circumstances of that day.
However, just as she was about to reach the foot of the mountain of the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, a strong aura suddenly appeared around her, causing Hua Ying to become immediately alert.
She stopped in her tracks and indeed saw a figure with white hair appear in front of her.
"Greetings, young master!"
Hua Ying said respectfully to the man in front of her.
Lu Min was Qing Wanrong’s Dao Companion and also Hua Ying’s master.
Hua Ying did not understand why Lu Min would appear at this time.
Could it be that the incident was even more complicated than she had imagined?
