Dig up my divine veins, I will be reborn to take revenge, why are you crying?

Three days later, in the Holy City of Qinglong Territory.

When Yunluo and Ling Yuhan arrived at the Ling family's house, white silk had already been hung on the Ling family's door.

In an instant, Ling Yuhan's heart skipped a beat.

"What's going on?" He grabbed a servant and asked in a trembling voice.

When the servant saw that it was Ling Yuhan, he immediately knelt down and said, "Young Master, you are finally back. The master, he, he..."

"What happened to my father?!" Although he had already guessed something in his heart, Ling Yuhan still wanted to hear it from the servant himself.

"The head of the family has already gone."

"What? This is impossible!" Ling Yuhan pushed the boy away and staggered to the backyard.

Yunluo followed behind him with a slightly furrowed brow.

Could it be that they came back a step too late, and the head of the Ling family had already...

But according to what Ling Yuhan said, the head of the Ling family should be able to hold on for a few more days and should not die of the poison so soon.

There might be something fishy going on here.

At this time, in the backyard, all the main members of the Ling family had arrived.

Seeing Ling Yuhan appear, several of them showed surprised expressions, looked at each other, and then quickly restrained themselves.

"Young Master, you are finally back!" Ling Yong, the second elder of the Ling family, hurried forward.

"Second Elder, my father..." Ling Yuhan didn't dare to say the rest of the words.

Ling Yong sighed heavily: "Young Master, please accept my condolences. The head of the family has passed away."

"No, it won't..." Ling Yuhan almost couldn't stand, and two servants quickly supported him.

"I want to see my father!" Ling Yuhan pushed the two servants away and staggered towards the room.

A figure suddenly stood up and stopped him: "Young Master, wait a minute."

Ling Yuhan raised his head with bloodshot eyes and looked at the person who was stopping him. It was Ling Yi, the eldest elder of the Ling family.

Thinking of Ling Zefeng's previous words, he slowly clenched his hands hanging at his sides.

Although he already knew Ling Yi's conspiracy, this was not the time to completely break off relations with him.

Ling Yi has been in the Ling family for many years and has a deep foundation, so it is not easy to touch him.

No matter what, he had to see his father first. He would never believe that his father was gone like that.

"What does the Great Elder mean?" He asked, suppressing the hatred in his heart.

Ling Yi frowned slightly. Why did he feel that Ling Yuhan seemed a little different from before?

In the past, Ling Yuhan was very respectful to him as the great elder, so why was he speaking so impolitely now?

Could it be that he already knew something?

And how on earth did Ling Zefeng manage to let this kid come back alive?

What a useless piece of shit, he can't even do such a small thing.

But it doesn’t matter. After today, the entire Ling family will be in his pocket.

Even if Ling Yuhan really knew something, there was nothing to be afraid of.

He is just an insignificant idiot.

It's easy to control him.

Thinking of this, a sinister gleam flashed across his eyes.

"Young Master, you are tired from the long journey, so you should go back to your room and rest. I will take care of it here."

"Handle it?" Ling Yuhan stared at Ling Yi: "I wonder how the Great Elder wants to handle it?"

"Now that the head of the family has passed away, we naturally need to take good care of it..."

"Who said my father passed away!" Ling Yuhan interrupted Ling Yi directly: "I said, I want to see my father!"

There was a flash of anger in Ling Yi's eyes, but since there were so many people around, he couldn't get angry.

I had to patiently explain: "We saw the master pass away with our own eyes."

"Oh? Is that so?" Ling Yuhan turned to look at Ling Yong who was standing beside him: "Did the Second Elder see it too?"

Ling Yong didn't understand why Ling Yuhan and Ling Yi suddenly had a dispute. He had always been immersed in cultivation and rarely asked about family affairs.

So naturally he wouldn't know what Ling Yi and Ling Zefeng did behind their backs.

"Although I was not present when the Patriarch left, the Great Elder and others saw it with their own eyes. Young Master, I know you don't want to believe it, but it is true. The Patriarch is indeed gone."

"You said you didn't see it with your own eyes, so how do you know if my father is really gone?" Ling Yuhan still didn't believe it.

And from what Ling Yong said, only Ling Yi and others were present at the time, and he didn't believe Ling Yi's words at all.

"Great Elder, you are trying to stop me. Are you hiding something from me?" Ling Yuhan looked at Ling Yi with a cold gaze.

Ling Yi narrowed his eyes slightly: "Young Master, what do you mean? This elder did not intend to stop you, but the appearance of the patriarch when he left was really too... This elder was just afraid that you would feel bad."

"Then there is no need for the Great Elder to worry. As a son, I must go in and see my father for the last time. The Great Elder is trying to stop me. Do you want me to be an unfilial son and make the Ling family the talk of the entire Holy City in the future?"

When Ling Yi heard this, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

It is true that one should look at a man with new eyes after three days of absence. How come he didn't know when Ling Yuhan became so eloquent?

He wants to use the reputation of the entire Ling family to pressure him. He is really capable.

If there weren't so many people around, he would have slapped him to death.

"Young Master, your words are too serious. Who dares to question the thousand-year foundation of our Ling family?"

"There is no point in saying more. No matter what, I must see my father today. I will say this one last time. Get out of the way!"

Ling Yuhan had completely lost his patience.

Why would Ling Yi stop him like this for no reason? He must have something to hide.

If my father were still alive, every second of delay would increase the danger.

If Ling Yi continues to stop him, he will have no choice but to resort to force.

Just when the two were at a stalemate, Ling Yong on the side spoke up: "Okay, Great Elder, since the young master insists on seeing him, let him see him. This will also put his mind at ease."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yi clenched his hands slightly in his sleeves.

Although Ling Yong is the second elder, he has devoted all his attention to cultivation over the years, and his current strength is far superior to that of the first elder.

Now that he had spoken, he naturally had no reason to refuse.

Moreover, if I continue to obstruct him, it would seem a bit too deliberate, and it might even arouse Ling Yong's suspicion, which would be a loss.

After all, the Ling family still needs a strong man like Ling Yong to take charge, so that the Ling family can maintain its second place among the four great families in the Holy City.

Forget it. After taking the medicine, it’s the same as being dead. There’s no way a stupid boy like Ling Yuhan would notice anything.

"In that case, young master, please go in, so that I won't be accused of doing something bad with good intentions and become a target of criticism."

Ling Yu snorted coldly, not bothering to pay attention to Ling Yi's shamelessness, and walked towards the room with Yun Luo.

After this incident, he will settle all the old and new grudges with Ling Yi.
