Chapter 405: Qin Dongxue from the Qin Family! The Powerful Aunty!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the whistling sea breeze, the woman’s white chiffon dress wrapped tightly against her lithe body and revealed its beautiful contours. She captured their imaginations with her twin peaks and slim waist, along with her straight and slender legs.

Holding a sword in her right hand, her face was veiled in white gauze. Her beautiful eyes and arching brows were accompanied by a complexion that was fairer than snow. She was strolling in the sky towards Ling Yun!

Strolling in the sky, this... this expert has attained the peak of Xiantian Realm Level Three at the very least! Lei Sheng was astounded when he witnessed the powers of the woman in white!

Has Mother returned? Ling Yun was delighted at the sight of the woman. However, he could immediately tell that it was a different person even though her eyes and eyebrows greatly resembled Qin Qiuyue’s.

She could actually stroll in the sky. Even though it was a short distance, she is definitely from a high realm that is comparable to the peak of Physique Tempering Stage Nine that I’ve attained! Ling Yun silently made the comparison.

In terms of physical power, Ling Yun had reached the peak of Physique Tempering Stage Nine in the Cultivation World. Now that he had already cultivated an extraordinary energy center, Ling Yun reckoned that he would be able to put up a solid performance the moment it managed to break through Physique Tempering Stage Seven.

The woman in white was still walking in mid-air. Her pace was just right, neither too fast nor too slow. In a single stride, she covered tens of meters in the air. It only took her seven steps to land before the crowd.

Everyone present was captivated by this beauty who resembled a fairy descending slowly into the world. Along with the others, Ling Yun only regained his senses when she finally stood in front of them.

“If I may venture to ask, who might this lady be?” Lei Sheng knew that this woman’s powers were unfathomable and that she could slay him with a finger. He dared not take anything for granted.

“Qin Dongxue from the Qin Family!” To everyone’s surprise, the woman in white didn’t conceal her identity but chose to state it plainly instead!

“Sh...”

With the exception of Ling Yun, the rest of them — Cui Lao, Lei Sheng, and even Dugu Mo — couldn’t help but gasp!

A member of the Qin Family!

Cui Lao was baffled because his conjecture about the head of the Ling Family, Ling Lie, had turned into a reality!

Indeed, Qin Qiuyue was the poor woman who had been expelled from the Qin Family eighteen years ago!

Goodness, the third master from the Ling Family, Ling Xiao, had an illegitimate son with the goddess of the Devil Sect from the previous generation. The child had been left to wander on his own until he was adopted by Qin Qiuyue, who had been expelled from Qin Family. He had been in her foster care for eighteen years now!

This... was an incredible coincidence!

Lei Sheng and Dugu Mo had gasped not just due to Qin Dongxue’s display of her terrifying powers, but because she had mentioned the Qin Family!

Eighteen years ago, there were three distinguished Chinese families who had entered a tripartite confrontation. Out of the three families, the Long Family and Ling Family resided in Beijing, while the Qin Family lived in a secluded corner of Jiangnan!

Back in those days, there was an endless stream of illustrious Chinese families, but without a doubt, these three families were the most renowned of them all!

However, the Ling and Qin families gradually lost their standing due to two complicated and poignant love stories that happened eighteen years ago!

These two cases were well-known amongst all the ancient clans and secret sects in China. They were cited as cautionary tales to their descendants to prevent a recurrence of such incidences.

As a member of the Condor Team from the Chinese special forces, Lei Sheng — along with the pride of the ancient Chinese clans, Dugu Mo — certainly knew about the Qin Family. Understandably, they were shocked to see a descendant of the Qin Family in person!

Qin Dongxue’s face was thinly veiled. Although he was unable to discern her real age, Ling Yun perceived her to be a woman in her twenties based on her eyes and physique.

Lei Sheng was so shocked that he retreated a step. He asked, “Miss Qin, I’ve heard that there was once a pair of biological sisters in the Qin Family. They were rare talents in the realm of martial arts training and cultivation. While she was only nine years of age, the younger sister had already attained the peak of Houtian Realm Level Six. I wonder if...”

After hearing his words, the corners of Qin Dongxue’s enchanting eyes broke into a smile. Gazing on, she let out a laugh that was reminiscent of jingling bells. “You are really glib-tongued. However, you don’t have to beat about the bush to sound me out. The younger sister you’re referring to is none other than me!”

Qin Dongxue’s smile vanished, and her tone turned frosty. “I guess you’ve heard what Ling Yun said moments ago. Whatever has happened in Qingshui City tonight is none of your Condor Team’s business. Go back to where you came from, and I won’t make things difficult for you!”

Once she had finished speaking, Qin Dongxue turned her gaze from the embarrassed and bewildered Lei Sheng. Gliding towards Ling Yun, she raised her fair and slim left hand to pinch his cheek lightly and addressed him with tender delight. “You rascal, I didn’t expect you to be such a good fighter. Quickly greet your aunty!”

Ling Yun felt his cheeks tingling from her pinch. However, as she was his mother’s younger sister, he had no choice but to allow Qin Dongxue to twist his cheek and greet her obediently as his aunty.

Qiuyue and Dongxue — it was needless to probe any further. This was certainly his mother’s younger sister, and he had addressed her correctly!

“You’re so adorable. This face of yours is even fairer than a girl’s. How old are you now?” Qin Dongxue was still pinching Ling Yun’s cheek as if she couldn’t bear to let it go.

“I’m eighteen years old now and will be turning nineteen next year. Aunty looks so young, are you even eighteen years old?” From the corners of his eyes, Ling Yun glanced at Qin Dongxue’s fair and bright complexion and flattered her!

He had no choice; not only did his aunty possess extraordinary abilities, but she also had an imposing air and disregarded the people surrounding her currently. Ling Yun would definitely be waiting upon her under these circumstances.

Qin Dongxue laughed femininely and pouted at Ling Yun. “That’s enough. The sight of your entire body covered in blood — and the odor emanating from it — is nauseating. Let me take you for a wash!”

“What?” Ling Yun was unable to comprehend her instructions. He still had to settle many issues, and she was actually planning to bring him for a wash now?

“What’s the meaning of your ‘what’? Are you going or not?” Qin Dongxue’s beautiful eyes widened and turned reproachful as she pouted.

Lei Sheng’s expression turned uglier. He replied awkwardly, “Miss Qin, this...”

Qin Dongxue’s countenance changed. Beneath the veil, her frosty voice sounded. “Didn’t you hear what I said just now? If you’re bored and have nothing to do, then use whatever pathetic authority you have to find a way to clear these corpses. If you still dare to meddle in Ling Yun’s affairs, then beware of my merciless sword!”

Dugu Mo was swallowing his saliva on the sidelines. He thought, Why are all of Ling Yun’s relatives so rebellious? Ling Yun is already so unreasonable, and this aunt of his seems to be even fiercer than him.

Cui Lao stood silently at one side, and his mind was racing as he thought about how to report this news to Ling Lie!

He was unsure whether he felt excited or panicky. Although the Ling and Qin families were distinguished in China, there was never any interaction between the two of them. Moreover, they had been secret rivals eighteen years ago. Never would they have imagined that Ling Yun would be the link between both families!

Even though Ling Yun was Ling Xiao’s biological son, the Ling Family couldn’t be credited with nurturing him. On the contrary, it was Qin Qiuyue from the Qin Family who had raised him single-handedly. As for whichever party could claim closer ties with him — such things were better left unsaid.

However, Cui Lao’s excitement was overshadowed by his shock and concern. Following the Ling Family’s fall from glory, as well as the fact that the Qin Family had suffered a similar fate, wouldn’t Ling Yun be shouldering an extremely heavy burden now that everything from their past was exposed?

“Aunty, please don’t pinch my cheek anymore. If you continue doing so, you’ll squeeze out some fluids very soon...” Ling Yun pleaded with Qin Dongxue to let go of him. Then, he turned his head towards Tang Tianhao, who was quietly standing aside. “Uncle Tang, there are still tens of corpses in the Zhuang Family’s villa in the western suburbs. It seems like I won’t be able to settle the matter and will need to trouble you...”

The fatherly look that Tang Tianhao gave Ling Yun was comparable to the one he had given to his own son, Tang Meng. He nodded his head and smiled. “Rest assured, Uncle Tang can guarantee you that everything will have died down by tomorrow!”

Ling Yun then turned to look at Lei Sheng. “Senior Lei, with regards to our matter...”

Lei Sheng cautiously cast a sidelong glance at Qin Dongxue and pretended to cough. “Eh, we’ll discuss this another day... on another day...”

Qin Dongxue snorted. “What do you mean by deferring the discussion? In my opinion, this matter has already concluded. I’ll be staying in Qingshui City for a period, and if I discover that your operatives have the audacity to touch Ling Yun, then don’t blame me for bullying you guys!”

Lei Sheng sweated profusely as he heard those words. He gave an awkward smile and decided not to speak up anymore.

Proud to have such a tough aunty, Ling Yun was especially smug to witness the look of exasperation on Lei Sheng’s face.

He turned to the back and sent a telepathic message to Cui Lao and Dugu Mo. “There’s nothing else to settle tonight. You can both return home. If you wish to continue practicing your cultivation, Mansion Number One is available for your use. As for any other matters, we’ll only be discussing them tomorrow.”

Cui Lao and Dugu Mo nodded their heads, and when Qin Dongxue caught the latter winking and signaling at Ling Yun, she cleared her throat and frightened him to such an extent that he stood immobilized.

“So everything has been settled? Follow me!” Qin Dongxue gave Ling Yun a reproachful look and darted tens of meters across. With her long dress fluttering in the wind, she cut an elegant figure.

Ling Yun demonstrated his Dragon Fish Phantom Ability and managed to keep pace with Qin Dongxue. In an instant, the duo departed from the Zhuang Family one after the other and vanished in the dense forests nearby.

“Ling Yun!”

In her anxiousness, Zhuang Meina had hastily called out to him from a faraway place as she witnessed his departure with Qin Dongxue.

But Ling Yun was long gone, and he wouldn’t have bothered with Zhuang Meina’s beckoning anyway.

“Let’s go!” Cui Lao and Dugu Mo exchanged glances and darted out of the villa towards Qingshui City at a dizzying speed.

Lei Sheng heaved a melancholic sigh. He beckoned Tang Tianhao over and remarked nonchalantly, “Whatever happened tonight is beyond the jurisdiction of your Public Security Bureau. However, I still need your help to clear those corpses by dawn. This matter isn’t to be leaked at all costs!”

Tang Tianhao had already promised Ling Yun to carry out the task. He smiled faintly. “Rest assured, Mr. Lei. I’ll make the necessary arrangements.”

...

“Aunty, where are we going?”

As they approached the foot of the mountain, Ling Yun stopped in his tracks to question Qin Dongxue.

Qin Dongxue cast him a reproachful look once more and replied, “To take a bath. Where else could we be headed to? The sea is just ahead of us and would contain enough water to clean you up!”

After she had spoken, Qin Dongxue resumed her swift pace with Ling Yun and headed towards the sea.

At the foot of the mountain, the sea breeze was gentle, and the waves softly lapped the shore. It made the night seem even more obscure, tranquil, and mysterious.

Ever since he had been reborn, this was the first time that Ling Yun had been to the seaside. As he stood marveling at the sea from a short distance, Ling Yun felt a mix of emotions.

The night scene and sea was already conducive for evoking one’s emotions. Ling Yun was a twice-born human, so it was only natural that he would be even more introspective.

“Rascal, why is your expression so solemn? What are you thinking about?” When Qin Dongxue perceived a sudden change in his expression, she had assumed that it was an emotional consequence of the massacre he had carried out, and she couldn’t help but show her concern.

Still gazing at the boundless sea and its churning waves, Ling Yun casually replied, “I was thinking about where the heart of the sea is...”

Qin Dongxue was greatly astonished. She wondered why Ling Yun had such a strange train of thought; he was actually thinking about the heart of the sea while surveying it?

She pursued her crimson lips behind the gauzy veil and laughed. “The sea is boundless, and its heart is intangible. Why are you thinking about this?”

Ling Yun turned his head and gave her a smug look. “Aunty, I’m sure you don’t know that the heart of the sea is full of treasures!”

Qin Dongxue was stumped by his reply and pouted. “D*mn you! Quick, wash yourself clean before coming up to chat with me.”

Ling Yun was stunned. “Do you really mean that I have to take a bath? I would need to strip naked...”

Qin Dongxue blushed and glared at him. “Pfft, what are you saying? You’re already eighteen years old and still so vulgar. Quick, go down to bathe yourself. Aunty... Aunty will not look at you!”

“Heh heh...” Ling Yun chuckled. However, he was suddenly at a loss for words and retreated tens of meters in an instant. His huge frame landed in the sea with the force of a fired cannonball, and the frothy waves splashed from the impact!

“Hey... you... be careful!” When Qin Dongxue witnessed his reckless behavior, she called out in a tender voice and stamped her feet lightly. It was unclear whether she was upset or worried about him.

After he had landed in the sea, Ling Yun sunk himself tens of meters deep. There, the currents were strong and flowed in succession.

Ling Yun held his breath and activated the Yin and Yang Qi in his body. Now that his cultivation had reached the middle stage of Physique Tempering Stage Five, he could remain submerged in this manner for about seven to eight minutes.

“This is a really good place for physical training!” As he stood on the seafloor, Ling Yun was secretly delighted when he felt the impact of the turbulent currents.

With a flip of his hand, he retrieved the Shennong Cauldron, which weighed thousands of kilograms, and used both his hands to grasp its legs. As he held it, Ling Yun danced vigorously in the sea!

Now that the Shennong Cauldron was filled with seawater, it was heavier by several hundred kilograms. Coupled with the turbulent currents in his surroundings, Ling Yun’s energy and True Qi were depleted in no time. This exercise was indeed beneficial for training his physique.

Onshore, Qin Dongxue knew that Ling Yun hadn’t disrobed before entering the sea. As such, she didn’t need to avert her gaze from him. However, she was anxious when Ling Yun didn’t resurface after three minutes!

“This rascal, I must discipline him later on!” Qin Dongxue stamped her feet in anxiousness. Nevertheless, she was an impetuous character and darted to a place on the water that was tens of meters from the shore. Using her superb Qinggong technique, she scurried on the surface of the sea in search of Ling Yun.

The sea breeze was whistling and caused her long, white dress to flutter. Qin Dongxue resembled a radiant and mysterious fairy who was walking on the waves.

“Swoosh!”

A minute later, there was a gigantic wave in the sea. Ling Yun stored his Shennong Cauldron and emerged from the sea, naked.

“Whoa, Aunty is so beautiful!”

Ling Yun’s sudden emergence and shout had given Qin Dongxue a huge fright. Infuriated, she spun around and pouted. “You rascal...”

“Ah...”

Qin Dongxue was so preoccupied with anger that she had forgotten that she was walking on the sea. She had been scurrying across its surface for a minute already and had used up the breath of her True Qi in the process. At this juncture, she opened her mouth to speak...

Was it even possible that she could still remain standing instead of sinking?

“Plonk!” Qin Dongxue fell into the sea!,
