Chapter 351: Yu Family's Unusual Movement
Inside the Lei Xiao Sect, in a quiet cave, Pei Ling and Chen Yan sat side by side, surrounded by a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy. They were about to embark on a period of seclusion and practice to remove the poison.
On the eve of the retreat, Chen Yan's eyes seemed a little hazy. He raised his head with difficulty, looking at Ling Jiuan who was standing not far away with gentle eyes but a hint of apology.
"Jiuan, I'm sorry. Those words... were not what I meant under the influence of the poison."
Chen Yan's voice was weak, but full of sincerity.
Although he was controlled, his memory was still there.
When Ling Jiuan heard this, the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.
"I know, Chen Yan. Just rest assured and retreat. When you succeed, we will return to Juling City together."
Chen Yan nodded slightly, and as the door closed, he closed his eyes and concentrated, officially starting his retreat.
After Chen Yan and Pei Ling were completely immersed in their closed-door practice, Lei Tingyi slowly turned around and looked at Ling Jiuan with a deep gaze.
"Jiuan, do you...really want to go back to Juling City?"
There was some reluctance and worry in his tone.
Ling Jiuan chuckled, "Returning to Juling City is naturally my wish. But before that, I'm afraid we will have to go through a fierce battle."
Upon hearing this, Lei Tingyi couldn't help but sigh and frowned.
"Yes, the Yu family will never give up easily. But...what methods will they use?"
A cold smile appeared on Jiuan's face.
"They? Naturally, they will directly attack the Thunder Sky Sect with the intention of annexing us."
Lei Tingyi's eyes flashed when he heard this.
"The Yu family is really ambitious. In that case, let's give it a try!"
The sunlight sprinkled dappled on the bluestone road of Lei Xiao Sect, and the breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness.
Just then, Uncle Zhong hurriedly walked in from outside, holding a tightly sealed letter.
He knew in his heart that the current situation was really bad.
He went straight to the meeting room where Lei Tingyi and Ling Jiuan were. As soon as he entered, he handed the letter to Lei Tingyi, who was sitting in the main seat, with a serious expression.
"Young Master, there are unusual movements in the Yu family. According to reliable information, Yu Lingyuan has ordered a large-scale attack on the Lei Xiao Sect in half a month."
Upon hearing this, Lei Tingyi's face darkened. He took the letter and opened it quickly.
His eyes quickly swept across the letter paper. Every word seemed as heavy as a thousand pounds, weighing on his heart.
After reading it, he clenched his fists, his nails digging deeply into his palms, but he was completely unaware.
"Yu Lingyuan, how dare he be so bold!"
Lei Tingyi's voice was low and angry, like a beast about to explode.
Ling Jiuan was standing aside, and seeing this, he gently patted Lei Tingyi on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down.
She took the letter and read it carefully, her brows furrowed and her eyes showing a cold light.
"It seems that they really intend to annex the Lei Xiao Sect."
Lei Tingyi took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner anger. He looked at Ling Jiuan with a complicated expression.
"Jiuan, a war is now inevitable."
Ling Jiuan nodded, she already had a plan in mind.
"Then let's fight!"
Lei Tingyi looked at Uncle Zhong.
"I will be responsible for contacting various forces. Uncle Zhong, you will be responsible for allocating resources within the sect."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Zhong responded respectfully, turned around and left, and started to get busy.
In the meeting room, Lei Tingyi and Ling Jiuan continued to discuss strategies to deal with the Yu family's attack.
As time went by, everyone in Lei Xiao Sect became busy and nervous, and the atmosphere was tense and weird.
The actions of the Yu family are like a sword hanging over the head of the Lei Xiao Sect.
After thinking it over, Ling Jiuan's eyes were fixed on Lei Tingyi.
"I have to go to the Yu family. I think the Yu family is hiding a secret that is unknown to the public. If my guess is correct, this secret is likely related to Manwu."
Upon hearing this, Lei Tingyi frowned, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
"Jiuan, are you sure you want to do this? The Yu family and we are now at loggerheads, and I'm afraid you'll be in great danger if you go."
Ling Jiuan shook his head gently, with a faint smile on his lips.
"I am sure I will go. We promised Lingjun to find Manwu. This is our promise. Moreover, only by understanding the Yu family in depth can we determine who our enemy is."
Lei Tingyi looked at Ling Jiuan's eyes and knew that she had made up her mind, so he stopped trying to dissuade her.
He took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"Okay, I promise you. But you must be careful and ensure your own safety."
Ling Jiuan nodded.
"Don't worry, it's just lurking. I'm good at it."
She was very familiar with such scenes from thousands of missions in her previous life.
The biggest difference is probably the difference in strength!
In her previous life, she was a soldier king, so in a one-on-one fight with her, the probability of her losing is very small.
Most of her opponents nowadays are stronger than her.
But she is Ling Jiuan and is never afraid of these things.
Lei Tingyi looked at Ling Jiuan with a serious tone.
"Jiuan, the Yu family is different from those noble families in Juling City. You must not be careless."
He had been to the Yu family when he was a child. It seemed peaceful, but in fact, there were undercurrents.
Hearing this, Ling Jiuan smiled.
"I know, if the Yu family was that simple, they wouldn't have pushed us to this point."
She was not a naive little girl. She could not predict whether she would live or die, but she had to go.
But before going, she still needs to make some preparations.
After thinking about it, she drew a bunch of drawings and handed them to Lei Tingyi.
"Please find someone to make the things on these drawings for me. They must be completed within three days."
Hearing this, Lei Tingyi nodded repeatedly.
"Don't worry, I will make arrangements for you."
Hearing this, Jiuan felt relieved.
"It would be great if you could inject spiritual energy into it."
Those bows and crossbows can be invincible only if they are infused with spiritual power.
But if it doesn't work, it's still a killer.
Lei Tingyi nodded.
"Don't worry, the cultivators of Lei Xiao Sect can do it well."
Afterwards, Ling Jiuan returned to his own yard.
She also needs to prepare some pills and talismans.
If possible, she still hopes she can provide more help.
Just then, Liu Zhu Liu Ying, who had recovered from his injuries, came back.
They looked at Ling Jiuan with worry in their eyes.
"Master, are you going to the Yu family alone? Please take us with you, otherwise..."
Ling Jiuan smiled.
"Don't worry, I will take you with me. You will have a share of what I prepared. If you don't follow me, naturally no one can cooperate with us."
Hearing Ling Jiuan's words, Liu Zhu and Liu Ying both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Master!"
Ling Jiuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Thank me for what? I asked you to accompany me through life and death, and you still thank me?"
Liu Zhu and Liu Ying looked at each other, their eyes full of smiles.
"Master, we couldn't ask for more."
