Chapter 957

"Uncle, I lied." Ye Qingran sighed, she laid her cards bare.

"You…" Yun Zhonghe stared wide-eyed, seemingly unable to believe Ye Qingran would actually lie!

"Actually, the moment you said the name 'Yun Ling,' I knew your identity; it's just that our meeting was really awkward, I took you for a… uh… pervert, and even used you as a negative example to educate the kids, so I was too embarrassed to acknowledge you…"

Ye Qingran rubbed her nose, recalling the scene of their first meeting, she found it amusing.

"Great-uncle, we can testify for Mother!"

Xiao Hu Xiao Chen raised their little hands, afraid Yun Zhonghe wouldn't believe them.

"I believe your words!" Yun Zhonghe's throat choked, his heart warmed immensely, he couldn't help feeling, after all these years, not finding his sister but finding her children, perhaps this is another kind of fulfillment?

But…

"Xiao Ran, take the children and leave quickly!" Yun Zhonghe's expression gradually turned stern. Although recognizing Ye Qingran and her son made him overjoyed, the current situation was not appropriate.

"Want to leave? No one of you will escape today!" Flawless Emperor snorted coldly, his voice infused with the Emperor's Mysterious Force, extremely intimidating.

Yun Zhonghe furrowed his brows, a flash of determination crossed his eyes, he shielded Ye Qingran and her son behind him, "This matter started because of me; let them go, I'll go with you!"

The Flawless Emperor obviously couldn't decide, he glanced at the Ling Family Head, who nodded at him, then he barely nodded, shouting, "You three, get lost at once!"

A tone like almsgiving.

"I think the ones who should roll away are you." Ye Qingran looked up at the lofty Flawless Emperor, spoke softly, her peerless face showed no fear.

Upon hearing this, many people sucked in a breath of cold air, thinking Ye Qingran must be crazy; did she not realize the opponent was not an ordinary person but a supreme Flawless Emperor?

Flawless! It means a cultivator has reached the ultimate, the realm perfected to completion, without any flaw!

This is the realm countless cultivators spend their lives pursuing; even in a vast spiritual domain, those who possess such a realm number no more than twenty!

The Flawless Emperor narrowed his eyes, anger and killing intent radiating from his whole body; the Flawless Emperor, so exalted, how could he tolerate being provoked by ants?

"Palace Chief Wanqi, your Wànlíng Xuégōng people are so disrespectful to elders; let me discipline them for you, you don't mind, do you?"

Wanqi Zifeng heard this, slightly furrowed his brows, his tone still calm, "Hua Chong Master, please calm your anger; if we have offended, I will have my staff apologize to you, but we Wànlíng Xuégōng people will not trouble you with discipline."

Wanqi Zifeng's tone was gentle, yet hid dignity, fully displaying the aura of the Wànlíng Xuégōng Palace Chief.

The Ling Family's foundation is deep; among them, the most renowned are the Twelve Chapter Pattern Masters, each an unparalleled powerhouse.

Among the twelve masters, three are Flawless Emperors, and the remaining nine are all Nirvana Emperors, their strength peaking even within the same realm; this Hua Chong Master is one of the three Flawless Emperors.

"What if I insist?" Hua Chong Master narrowed his eyes, a pressure like a tide released, pressing downward; the Wànlíng Xuégōng crowd instantly felt suffocated.

Seeing this, Wanqi Zifeng stepped forward half a pace, his bearing suddenly soaring; at this moment he was no longer the gentle and refined Wànlíng Xuégōng Palace Chief, but…

"Flawless Emperor!"

The moment Wanqi Zifeng released his aura, the suffocating pressure on everyone vanished; they gazed at the radiant Wanqi Zifeng, eyes filled with admiration and respect.

As the Palace Chief of Wànlíng Xuégōng, Wanqi Zifeng hardly ever displays his strength before academy disciples; now, Hua Chong Master, one of the Ling Family's Twelve Chapter Pattern Masters, provokes at the academy gate, and the Palace Chief meets strength with strength, releasing his Flawless pressure!

The Emperor's realm aura rose magnificently, splendid brilliance, highlighting his extraordinary nobility!

The two Flawless Emperors stood opposed, the scene making hearts race; none doubted that if they struck, everyone nearby would suffer as well.

"Hua Chong, enough." The Ling Family Head's voice finally sounded; Hua Chong Master snorted coldly, then gradually withdrew his pressure.

"Palace Chief Wanqi, please calm your anger; we have no intention of feuding with your Wànlíng Xuégōng." The Ling Family Head wore a faint smile that didn't reach his eyes, he pointed at Yun Zhonghe, "This person has offended the Ling and Lu families; today I and the Domain Lord must seize him. As for them mother and child, we have no intention of targeting them; it's she herself who refuses to leave."

Wanqi Zifeng frowned, said nothing; the Ling Family Head was right—this matter the academy cannot overly interfere, it still depends on Ye Qingran's attitude; if she insists on sharing fate with Yun Zhonghe, he can't do anything, after all he is the Wànlíng Xuégōng Palace Chief, representing the whole academy.

Ye Qingran also saw Wanqi Zifeng's difficulty, "Palace Chief Wanqi, this is our private affair, unrelated to the academy; moreover, we can settle it ourselves."

Wanqi Zifeng looked at Ye Qingran in surprise, really unable to imagine how she would resolve it.

After all, their opponents are the Ling and Lu families; however, upon receiving the Sword God's gaze, he nodded, "Okay."

Ye Qingran actively severed ties with the academy; the Ling family looked at the four of them with even greater contempt.

One Nirvana Emperor plus a weakling not even at Nirvana Emperor realm, with two children—how could such a force escape the net jointly laid by the Ling and Lu families?

"Tie them up!" Hua Chong Master waved his hand, and immediately someone with a menacing aura stepped forward, holding heavy shackles.

"Wait."

Hua Chong Master looked at Ye Qingran, thought of something, and sneered, "How? Regretting it?" In his view, Ye Qingran must have regretted it, decided to cut ties with Yun Zhonghe.

"No." Ye Qingran denied, "I want to ask the Ling Family, what is their reason for mobilizing forces to seize my uncle? As the saying goes, even in death one must die with understanding."

Hua Chong Master pondered briefly, then spoke in a deep voice, "The criminal Yun Zhonghe attempted to assassinate the Ling Family's young master, failing; moreover, he deceived the Spirit Domain Princess Lu Qiqi, his crimes are grave!"

Ye Qingran nodded in understanding, "Ah, that explains it! But I heard the reason my uncle clashed with the Ling Family's young master was because the young master tried to abduct my aunt Lu Qiqi?"

The term "aunt" made Lu Qiqi beside her startle.
