However, although the faces of these people had already hung a trace of dejected and impatient expressions, no one dared to make too much noise here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this black-clothed man suddenly appear at the entrance of the cave, the crowd, who were just dejected, instantly began to have a trace of joy and hurriedly stood up to give way to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black-clothed man passed through the crowd and arrived at the deepest part of this cave, saying loudly to a middle-aged man who was still meditating with his eyes closed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big Brother, that group of people has withdrawn. Do we want to go back directly now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't be in a hurry, let's wait a bit, so as not to fall into their trap.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person speaking was the boss of Eagle Nest Ridge, Cheng Yilong. This person is not only cunning in character but also very ruthless in his actions. In Eagle Nest Ridge, no matter how close your relationship is with him, if he turns his face, he will definitely not recognize anyone. Even if so many fierce people are squeezed into this cave, no one dares to stand out and complain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That group of people from Qinghe Marketplace came for us this time. It's hard to guarantee that they won't leave any backhand, so it's better to be careful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's really strange, how come so many people suddenly came for us for no reason? I saw it clearly just now. The cultivation of those who came was at least late-stage Qi Refining, and there were at least five Foundation Establishment experts. If it weren't for you, Big Brother, being prepared early, we would have really fallen into their hands this time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Yilong opened his eyes, looked at the black-clothed man who was a bit puzzled, and continued: \"This time it's because the Feng brothers lost their hand in Qinghe Marketplace and mistakenly killed two guard team cultivators of Qinghe Marketplace, which angered them. These boys have become more and more ignorant of the height of the sky and the depth of the earth recently. When they come back, I will punish them in public, and also remind everyone to see clearly who the other party is before taking action, and don't bring such a big disaster to us for no reason.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I said Big Brother! How did you get the news? The Feng brothers haven't come back yet. How come you were so sure they were coming for us this time?\" The black-clothed man thought for a while and still asked a question he most wanted to know in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Yilong waved his hand with a smile and said softly: \"Of course someone told me in advance, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to take you to withdraw safely so quickly. It's just that this person's identity is still useful to us, so don't inquire about it, so as not to cause any trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning without success, Song Qingming also felt a bit aggrieved in his heart. Eagle Nest Ridge was, after all, his life-and-death enemy. That robber who had chased him for half a day still echoed in his mind from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought he could find this person to take revenge by going to Eagle Nest Ridge this time, but he didn't expect that after being busy for more than half a month and sleeping in the open, he just went there to see the scenery and came back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, Song Qingming had been thinking about who was so wicked to tip off Eagle Nest Ridge in advance, causing them to make a wasted trip from so far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First of all, he could rule out his side. Until he set off, he did not tell the people below his true purpose. When he summoned them, Song Qingming only told them that he was going to perform a task and did not inform them of the specific matter and time. Logically speaking, it was impossible for anyone to guess it so quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After gathering and setting off, along the way, under the eyes of five Foundation Establishment cultivators, it was impossible for these people to hide any small actions from everyone. He still had the confidence to believe this point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Huang family, Song Qingming also felt that it was unlikely. After all, one of their clansmen had already died in Eagle Nest Ridge last time. No matter how bad the Huang family was, they wouldn't dare to collude with Eagle Nest Ridge secretly at this juncture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the remaining Gao family and Lu family, to tell the truth, Song Qingming was a bit suspicious in his heart, but he was only suspicious now and had no actual evidence in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the people under Lu Yuanfeng, Song Qingming was also a bit afraid to believe. After all, Song Qingming had seen with his own eyes back then that Lu Yuanfeng's disciples Hu Maocheng and Gao Yufu colluded to harm Li Hongyu and his daughter. It can be seen that there should be many people under him who can be bought with spirit stones. If Lu Yuanfeng had revealed this matter to the disciples below from the beginning, then his side leaking the secret was also very likely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In any case, this matter served as a reminder to him. Even the law enforcement team guarding the marketplace could be plotted against. It can be seen that Qinghe Marketplace is no longer a stable place now. After returning, he must hurry to remind the clansmen in the marketplace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Qingming now also knows that these people from Eagle Nest Ridge generally stare at the marketplace. They usually stare near the marketplace, targeting those cultivators who leave the marketplace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for himself being attacked near Lingyuan Mountain back then, it was also because Feng Laodao was targeted by those few people from Eagle Nest Ridge after leaving Qinghe Marketplace, and he fled there, which also caused him to suffer along with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back and forth, until a month later, Song Qingming and the others finally returned to Qinghe County. After\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Qingming first gathered the Song family members in the market to emphasize this matter, warning them not to leave the market unnecessarily in the near future. Even if they needed to return to Mount Funiu, they were to send word in advance to travel in groups and must never set out alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To facilitate the transport of goods, Song Qingming also temporarily retrieved the Skyfire Roc from Huang Siyuan and handed it over to his second sister, Song Qingwan. In any case, the creature was now fully capable of carrying a person back and forth between Mount Funiu and Qinghe Market; with it, Song Qingwan could better communicate with those at Mount Funiu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after returning from Eagle Nest Ridge, Song Qingyu finally stabilized her cultivation and emerged from seclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their sixth uncle, Song Changfeng, had originally wanted to hold a Foundation Establishment ceremony for her and invite nearby friends and major cultivation families to celebrate, but this proposal was quickly rejected by Song Qingyu herself, who did not want to waste family resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After her Foundation Establishment, Song Qingyu had indeed matured quite a bit and began to understand how to think more about the family and others. Song Qingming approved of her choice, as he also did not want the news of Song Qingyu’s Foundation Establishment to spread so quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To help conceal the news of her Foundation Establishment, Song Qingming carefully fabricated a lie for the clansmen, saying that she had gone to Guiyun Market for training half a year ago and it was unknown when she would return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Song Qingyu’s Foundation Establishment, the spiritual energy in her original cave dwelling was slightly insufficient, so she simply renovated the cave dwelling Song Qingming had temporarily opened half a year ago and moved in. Now that their cave dwellings were not far apart, it was convenient for her to come over at any time to consult Song Qingming on cultivation issues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time flew by, and another four years passed. On this day, a large amount of spiritual energy suddenly gathered in Song Qingming’s cave dwelling. Even Song Qingyu, who was cultivating not far from his cave, felt the fluctuation of this spiritual energy and hurried out to see what had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Song Qingyu could figure out what was going on, the spiritual energy suddenly dissipated. A moment later, the barrier at the entrance of the cave dwelling slowly vanished, and a smiling Song Qingming walked out slowly from within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It looks like you have broken through to the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, Seventh Brother!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of this chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1479,"2026-06-14T03:09:35.509Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","aa1d6dc314691ccf8bb3c7defdad18e38803df9296c32a4c438261f967ceb2e5","the-song-clan-of-qinghe-chapter-253","the-song-clan-of-qinghe-chapter-251",846,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-qinghe-song-clan-cover.jpg"]
