In Fang Zhengyi's impression, people who can become the master of the five holy gates are basically a little older, at least, they cannot be so young.
But the woman in front of him is indeed a bit too young.
"Yu'er! Yu'er... is it really you?" At this moment, Lin Mubai's voice suddenly rang out. Then, Lin Mubai, who was seriously injured on the ground, struggled to support his hands on the ground. Trying to forcefully get up from the ground.
"You guessed it right?" Fang Zhengzheng's heart moved slightly.
But after Pingyang heard Lin Mubai's voice, his body trembled violently. He looked at the woman in front of him with clear water eyes, and almost dropped the Fire Lin Gun in his hand.
"Mom? Are you a mother?" Pingyang's lips parted slightly, obviously in disbelief.
After all, in Pingyang's heart, she never thought that she would see her mother under such circumstances, and that her mother would actually be the owner of Lingyun Tower.
This undoubtedly surprised her.
However, the woman did not pay attention to Lin Mubai and Ping Yang's intentions. She did not even look at Ping Yang and Lin Mubai. She just walked straight in front of Cang Yue. A faint golden light filled her surroundings. Under the shining of the sun, It gives people an unholy feeling, just like the warmest radiance in the world.
"Owner, Cang Yue... I let you down!" Cang Yue's brows furrowed tightly, and then she put one hand on the ground and leaned her body slightly on the ground.
"It doesn't matter, you've done a good job." The woman shook her head gently, slowly stretched out one hand, helped Cang Yue up, and pressed the other hand on the scar on Cang Yue's chest.
In an instant, the injury on Cang Yue's chest solidified rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she recovered in just a moment.
"Huh?" Fang Zhengzheng narrowed his eyes slightly. The woman in front of him was young and frightening. However, he had only seen this kind of method used by the woman when he fought against the Demon King Xieluo King.
However, he was not too concerned about the woman's methods now, but he was a little surprised by Cang Yue's name for the woman.
"Lord of the building? Shouldn't I call you master?" Fang Zhengzheng didn't know what kind of rules there were in Lingyun Tower. However, if according to common sense, since Cang Yue is a woman's servant, then she should be called a woman in any number of ways. He should be different from other Lingyun Tower disciples.
what happened? Could it be that I made a mistake
But…
If it was really a mistake, why did the woman ignore the injuries on the woman in the red dress and other people, but treated Cang Yue alone.
Moreover, the most important thing is that even if he might guess wrong, Lin Mubai would definitely not be wrong. Could it be that there is something else in this that he has not guessed through
No way, this woman and Cang Yue...
Have a leg? !
While Fang Zhengzheng was making random guesses in his mind, Lin Mubai's voice sounded again.
"Yu'er... I..."
"Shut up, Lin Mubai, look carefully. This is our building owner, not the master! Moreover, I have told you a long time ago that the master cannot come out to see you, so give up!" Cang Yue's voice At this time, he directly interrupted Lin Mubai, his expression unusually cold.
"Not Yu'er?!" Lin Mubai's body trembled, his eyes visibly widened, and his gaze was subconsciously fixed on the woman in front of him. After a moment, Lin Mubai's emotions suddenly became excited again. : "You're not Yu'er, you...who are you?"
"No?" Fang Zhengzheng was slightly shocked.
Not only him, Pingyang also had his eyes widened. He looked at Lin Mubai, who was trying to get up from the ground, and then at the woman standing in front of him, with a confused look on his face.
She naturally believed Lin Mubai's words, but she didn't know whether Lin Mubai, who was seriously injured, really still had the sanity to make a clear judgment.
"Father, have you been separated from your mother for many years, so..."
"No, she is indeed not Yu'er. I have been with Yu'er day and night for several years. Let alone more than ten years apart, even if we are separated for twenty or thirty years, I can be sure that she is not my Yu'er. But , She is really similar to Yu Er, so similar..." Lin Mubai shook his head desperately, his expression looking extremely certain.
"Are you Fang Zhengyi?" At this moment, the woman finally slowly turned her gaze to Fang Zhengyi, calmly and indifferently.
A faint golden light flows, and coupled with a golden dress, she looks like a holy god.
However, the woman still did not look at Lin Mubai and Ping Yang.
"Before asking someone's name, shouldn't you state your name as a courtesy? The owner of the dignified Lingyun Building is not very polite, isn't he?" Fang Zhengzhi did not answer the woman's words, but asked instead.
"Be presumptuous, don't be unreasonable!" Cang Yue's voice sounded, and her body stood up from the ground, obviously very angry at Fang Zhengzheng's unreasonable words.
The red-dressed woman Hongying, the two white-dressed women lying on the ground, and the surrounding Lingyun Tower disciples were also extremely angry when they heard Fang Zhengzheng's words.
"Be bold!"
"It's okay." The woman waved her hands towards Cang Yue and the surrounding Lingyun Tower disciples, and then looked at Fang Zhengyi again, with an elegant smile on her lips: "What you said is not unreasonable. It is indeed etiquette to state your own name before asking someone's name, but..."
When the woman said this, she paused, and then she looked up at the sky slightly: "Cultivation is to go against heaven. Since you are also practicing, you should not follow the etiquette so rigidly. Besides, this is Ling Yun. Lou, even if we really talk about etiquette, as the owner of Lingyun Tower, it is up to me to determine whether it is rude or not."
Is it up to you
When Fang Zhengzheng heard this, he also smiled slightly. Sure enough, Lingyun Tower's arrogance is innate. It can be said that it has its own lineage from top to bottom.
Of course, he didn't care too much, after all, he was used to it.
"The poster is right, but the mouth is on me. I want to say that you are rude. That is also my own business. Just like I said you are an ugly and old witch, does the poster think it is right?" A smile appeared on Fang Zhengzheng's lips.
"I've always heard that Fang Zhengzheng is eloquent. When I saw it today, it turned out to be true." The woman nodded gently, not seeming to be angry at Fang Zhengzheng's words. Instead, she slowly withdrew her gaze to the sky: "Let's be honest, your purpose in coming to Lingyun Tower is to take Pingyang away?"
"Yeah, that's right." Fang Zhengzheng nodded directly this time, because he really came to Lingyun Tower to take Pingyang away. If he hadn't seen Pingyang's treatment in front of Hantan, he wouldn't have come here at all. Trouble in Lingyun Tower.
Of course, except for Cang Yue's matter.
"Then, why don't you leave yet?" the woman asked again.
"Can the host allow me to leave?" When Fang Zhengzheng heard this, his eyes moved slightly, and then the smile on his lips became wider and wider.
"Why not?" the woman also asked.
"It seems that I still have a way to survive?" Fang Zhengzheng smiled softly. He didn't know what the owner of Lingyun Tower was thinking.
But obviously, this result was different from what he imagined, and it was very different. It was obvious that the owner of Lingyun Tower was more tolerant than he imagined.
As the master of the first floor, he would actually take the initiative to let go of a person who had hurt so many disciples in Lingyun Tower. Such a thing would never happen in other sects of the Holy Domain.
But the owner of Lingyun Tower...
But he did it!
Then, there are only two possibilities, one is to show weakness on purpose, and the other is to be patient and not act. To put it bluntly, if you are not sure of victory, you will tolerate it for the time being.
Regarding these two possibilities, Fang Zhengzheng thinks that the second one is more likely. Of course, he is not sure yet.
However, what surprised him was that when the woman asked to let him go, the other disciples of Lingyun Tower, even Cang Yue, who had an extremely angry face, did not make a sound.
This kind of obedience is simply amazing.
"Since ancient times, it has been believed that anyone who breaks into Lingyun Tower without permission will be doomed. However, I can make an exception for you today and give you two choices!" The woman did not pay too much attention to the subtle changes in Fang Zhengzheng's expression. In other words, what Fang Zhengzheng was thinking was not enough for her to pay attention to.
"Oh? Why don't you tell me, sir?" Fang Zhengzheng nodded with interest.
"The first way is to survive. The condition is that you must swear to do three things for me, Lingyun Tower, and then you can leave with Pingyang and Lin Mubai." The woman said directly.
"So simple?"
"With your current strength, it's not easy to do three things with all your strength, and then to save a few lives in Lingyun Tower."
"It seems that the second road is a dead end?"
"Yeah." The woman did not deny it.
"So, before I make a choice, could you answer a few questions for me?" Fang Zhengzheng naturally did not make a choice immediately, but asked again.
"I know what you want to ask. I can give you three opportunities to ask questions, but you must use the five-color flowers you took in exchange." The woman seemed to have guessed Fang Zhengyi's request.
"Okay, first question, are you sure you are not Yu'er and have never changed your name to Yu'er?"
"No." The woman shook her head and answered simply.
"Is Yu'er in Lingyun Tower?"
"exist."
"Why doesn't Yu'er recognize Pingyang and doesn't want to see the emperor?" Fang Zhengzheng looked at Pingyang and Lin Mubai, and finally asked the third question.
When Pingyang and Lin Mubai heard this question, they also held their breath tightly. Their expressions were obviously extremely expectant.
"Are you sure you want to ask this as the last question? Instead of asking where Yu'er is?" The woman did not answer Fang Zhengyi's question immediately this time, but looked at Fang Zhengyi in surprise.
"I'm sure." Fang Zhengzheng nodded.
"Okay, I actually don't want to answer this question, but since I said you can ask three questions, then naturally you should keep your promise. The answer to this question is... Yu'er did not deny Pingyang, the same , she is not unwilling to see Lin Mubai."
After hesitating for a moment, the woman finally spoke. However, after she finished speaking, the golden light around her body became obviously stronger.
"Yu'er wants to see me? Yu'er really wants to see me... Sure enough, my Yu'er won't let me down. Why? Why don't you let Yu'er come out to see me!"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, Lin Mubai, who had been seriously injured on the ground, suddenly stood up from the ground. Golden light filled his eyes, and a huge golden dragon was swimming around his body.
"Father!" Pingyang subconsciously supported Lin Mubai's body, with extremely complex emotions in his clear, watery eyes.
Of course she could see that her father was still seriously injured, but Lin Mubai's eyes and expression were firmer than ever before.
"Pingyang, don't worry, Yu'er will not abandon you. My Yu'er is definitely not a heartless person. She must be in the building, yes, she must be in the building!"
"Father, mother, she..."
"Who are you? Why do you look so similar to Yu'er? Where are you imprisoning Yu'er? What happened in Lingyun Tower in the past ten years? Where is Lord Lan! Where is she?!" Lin Mubai's emotions seemed extremely excited at this moment, and it seemed that he could no longer calm down.
"Master has passed away." The woman also spoke at this time. For the first time, she answered Lin Mubai's question head-on.
Fang Zhengzheng, on the other hand, frowned.
What he is thinking about now is not what happened to Lingyun Tower in the past ten years or so, nor does he care about it, but there is one thing that makes him very confused.
If it is true as the woman in front of me said, Yu'er is not the current owner of Lingyun Building, then why does the woman in front of me value Cang Yue so much
Obviously, Cang Yue's strength alone should not be enough to reach the top in Lingyun Tower. Let alone Hong Ying, the woman in the red dress in front of her, her strength is higher than Cang Yue's.
However, when the woman in front of her took the dagger from Hong Ying's hand, she did not take action to treat Hong Ying. Instead, she went to treat Cang Yue first, rather than seeking the distance.
This is too weird.
Moreover, the most important thing is, if the woman in front of him is not Yu Er, according to what the woman said, Yu Er did not deny Pingyang, nor was she unwilling to see Lin Mubai, then where is Yu Er
In Lingyun Tower
Since we are in Lingyun Tower, why not see you
Within half a year, Pingyang was brought into Lingyun Tower by Cang Yue. It was impossible for Yu'er not to know about this kind of thing.
Knowing but not seeing
Fang Zhengzheng couldn't understand.
"You have already asked the three questions. I also asked Lin Mubai a question. Now, please return the five-color flowers." The woman's voice interrupted Fang Zhengzheng's thinking, her expression looking extremely calm.
"Five-colored flowers?" Fang Zhengzheng was not stupid. Naturally, he quickly guessed the woman's true purpose. However, the woman's answer just now was obviously beyond his expectation, so he decided to ask a few more questions. : "You did answer my three questions, but I don't know whether the answers are true or false. You said that Yu'er recognizes Pingyang and is willing to see the emperor, so why doesn't she come out?"
