In an ancient room with a strong scholarly atmosphere, an old man with a head full of white hair sat beside a middle-aged man. In front of the old man stood a middle-aged man with a resolute expression. The old man's expression was so indifferent.
"You are the new Shadow Sect's Sect Master, Ying Feng?”the old man said.
"Yes, I am. Can I ask the elderly head a question?”The middle-aged man asked.
"You're the disciple that Sixth Brother favors the most. If you have any questions, just ask. As long as I know, I'll definitely tell you.”The old man smiled.
The old man sitting on the chair was the previous head of the Ling Family, Ling Yan. Standing beside him was the current head of the Ling Family, Ling Fei. The person in front of them was none other than Ying Feng, who had just arrived.
"Does the elderly head know the whereabouts of 'Ghost Hand'?”Ying Feng asked.
"It was your big brother Qilin who told you that I know the whereabouts of Ghost Hand Flute, right?”The Old Clan Head retracted his friendly smile and asked instead of answering Ying Feng's question.
"That's right." Ying Feng replied calmly. However, his heart was already in turmoil. The Ling family's intelligence network is indeed extraordinary. He actually knew that Qilin was my big brother long ago.
The old man looked at the middle-aged man standing beside him and said indifferently,"Fei 'er, you can leave first. I'll have a chat with him."
The middle-aged man replied with a " hmm " and left the room respectfully. Only Ying Feng and the Ling Clan's Patriarch remained.
The old Ling Family Head carefully sized up Ying Feng and asked,""You're already an S-class thunder possessor?”
Ying Feng's face flashed with a trace of shock, but he soon regained his composure. He faintly replied with an "En" and thought, Why did the Ling family seem to know everything? As expected of the head of the four great clans.
"You don't have to be surprised by how I know. Back then, the Xuanyuan and Wanyan families of the Huaxia Continent were so glorious, but now…sigh!”Old Master Ling shook his head.
Then, the old head of the Ling family said,"Your Xuan Yuan family's natural lightning ability and their Wanyan family's silver pupil inheritance. That was the Two Heavenly Seals that no family could surpass.”As he spoke, his face carried a trace of yearning.
Ying Feng didn't say anything and only looked at the Ling Clan's Patriarch.
"Young man, you don't mind my nagging, do you? Why don't you listen to me tell you a story? I will tell you the answer you want later. Have a seat first!" Old Master Ling pointed at the chair beside Ying Feng.
Ying Feng nodded and sat on the chair, listening to Old Man Ling's story.
"You must have heard about the matter between Old Man Ying and his big brother from your big brother, right?”Old Master Ling asked.
"My big brother said that my master and uncle master are from the Wanyan family. He was the illegitimate son of the Wanyan family head 40 years ago.”Ying Feng replied respectfully. After all, the person in front of him was his master's sworn brother and his elder. Respect was a must.
"Yes, they are from the Wanyan family, but they are not illegitimate children. They are the direct descendants of the Wanyan family, which is the elder brother of the Wanyan family head twenty years ago. Otherwise, how could the illegitimate child know the secret of the Wanyan family's silver pupil inheritance?”the old man said calmly.
"What?" Ying Feng's face was filled with shock as he said in great shock,"What?" They were actually the direct descendants of the Wanyan family. That uncle should be the heir of the Wanyan family. How did Wanyan Hong become the head of the Wanyan family?”Wanyan Hong was also Yan Feng's blood grandfather, old man Ying and his big brother's blood brother.
"I'm not too sure about that either. Perhaps Old Man Ying and the others felt that they had let down" Ghosthand Desolate ", so they made the decision. Old man Ying's real name was Wanyan Ying, and his big brother was Wanyan Feng.”Old Master Ling said.
"I remember back then. I, Nangong Bufan, Qiao Guang, Shen Qi, the two brothers, and Xiao Tong, also known as "Ghost Hand Xiao", became sworn brothers. Perhaps it was my selfishness back then. I didn't want others to know my identity, so I suggested that we not reveal our movement techniques and just communicate like this. Everyone agreed. That was why the brothers had fallen out with each other. Sigh!" Old Master Ling sighed.
"Then how did you meet my master and uncle-master back then?”Ying Feng asked.
Old Master Ling started to reminisce. He paused and said,""I remember that forty years ago, the descendants of the five great families in the south set off separately with the goal of climbing Mount Everest. They did not bring any supplies and were alone. They had to live on Mount Everest for two years before they could return home to inherit the position of the family head. At that time, the five of us ran into each other in Tibet. Since we were all going to Mount Qomolangma, we went together. We don't know who leaked the news, but our enemies found out and sent their people to ambush us. We didn't receive any news. Back then, I was the only high-level martial artist among the five of us. The other four were all mid-level martial artists. And all the people the other party sent were high level martial artists. Just like that, a chase began in Tibet. When we arrived at Mount Qomolangma, we happened to meet the two brothers, Old Ying, and they saved us. The five of us were lucky enough to survive.”
"If that's the case, then Master and Uncle-Master were already high-level martial artists back then. Then, after 40 years, why haven't they advanced to super martial artists?”Ying Feng asked again.
"Back then, old man Ying was only an intermediate level martial artist, while his big brother Wanyan Feng was born with silver eyes.”Old Master Ling said calmly.
"How is that possible, uncle master was a silver pupil back then, then how could the Wanyan family be massacred 16 years ago?”Ying Feng's face was filled with disbelief. One had to know that the power of a silver-eyed person was not something that ordinary people could deal with.
The old man shook his head and sighed,"I have to say that the Wanyan family's silver pupil inheritance is very cruel." The inheritance of the Wanyan family's silver pupils had to be passed on to an unborn child. Because the two old man Ying brothers killed the head of the Xiao family, they knew that they had killed their brother's father. The two of them were filled with regret. The next day, Wanyan Feng transferred all his abilities to the child of his sister-in-law, but the child that the woman gave birth to was a girl. It was Wanyan Bing. The two of them then left Wanyan's house and entered the Shadow Gate.”
"Then why is the child that the Wanyan family swore to protect also a silver pupil? I remember Bing 'er always had silver eyes?”Ying Feng looked at the elderly Ling Family Head and asked.
"When Wanyan Bing was assassinated, she didn't die immediately. She left a breath and returned to the family to transfer all her abilities to her sister-in-law, who was three months pregnant. After that, Wanyan Bing died.”
"I'm sure you know about that child. He's already dead, only conscious. Can he still live? My big brother said that "Ghost Hand Xiao" might be able to save him, right?”Ying Feng looked at the old patriarch with a face full of expectation.
"This might be fate. I can tell you where Ghost Hand Xiao is, but whether he can save that child or not depends on him. He's at the foot of Mount Emei now. Go and find him.”Old Master Ling said.
"Thank you so much!" After Ying Feng thanked him, he left the loft-like room.
The old Ling Family Head looked at Ying Feng's back as he left. He muttered,"Old... Second, it's been decades. I hope you can let go.”
