This result surprised Mo Lingling. The people she found were all masters. Even if they could not complete the task successfully, they should not all die.

"Are you sure there are no experts protecting her from the Lingxi Bulletin?"

"The slave is sure."

In fact, when she went there in person that day, she also investigated where that woman came from and why she was so difficult to deal with.

"It seems that this is the only option left." She has been in the Mo family and Lingxi Palace for so many years, and she is not just going to eat and wait for death.

He walked to the desk, wrote a letter with a pen and paper, and suddenly paused, crumpled the paper into a ball, and threw it on the ground. Then he turned around, waved his hand, and the ball of paper on the ground instantly caught fire and turned into ashes.

"You go out first. You are not allowed to come in without my order."

Chunying nodded, then left and closed the door. After Chunying left, Mo Lingling sat in front of the bronze mirror, dyed her curved eyebrows, painted her lips red, then changed into a tight gauze skirt, a wide black robe, a hat, and disappeared into the room.

The next day, a shocking piece of news spread throughout Dream Island. Mo Lingling, the adopted daughter of the Mo family and the only disciple of the Palace Master of Lingxi Palace, turned out to be the long-lost daughter of the Palace Master of Fenggu.

It is said that the wife of the Lord of Fenggu Valley died of illness many years ago, and since then, the Lord of Fenggu Valley has never remarried.

The valley master’s wife has only one daughter, Feng Yinyin, so the valley master Fenggu has no son.

People have always believed that this is a great love that will last forever, and they sang praises to it. There are even many folk opera scripts written based on the prototype of the Valley Master and his wife. Unexpectedly, a daughter suddenly appeared at this moment.

The reputation of the Master of Fenggu plummeted, and all kinds of rumors spread instantly. Some said that the mistress had taken over, some said that the master had an affair, and some even said that the Master's wife was killed by the mistress... However, this rumor did not last long, and was replaced by another rumor.

The master of Fenggu personally issued a notice, which briefly described how he met Mo Lingling's biological mother. She was out to eliminate evil thieves, but was framed by a trap. In short, she was drugged. Although Mo Lingling's daughter did not come from a good family, blood is thicker than water after all, and the mother's faults cannot be passed on to her children. After all, she is his daughter, so he is willing to acknowledge her and announce to the world that she is recognized!

As soon as this notice came out, the wind direction changed instantly. The master of Fenggu was righteous, recognized his daughter regardless of past grudges, and sacrificed himself for everyone. He was a hero of the islanders. This not only saved his image, but also raised it to a higher level. When all parties received this news, they were also very surprised. However, most people felt that Mo Lingling was too lucky. The Mo family had just fallen, and immediately relied on Fenggu again. With this luck, if he went to gamble, he would definitely win the whole game.

In an inn, Ling'er changed into men's clothes again, looking at Feng Yinyin who was sitting opposite him and drinking alone, with deep affection and indifference. After all, this was someone else's family affair, and as an outsider, he couldn't ask anything. The only thing he could do now was to accompany her silently and be a listener.

After drinking a pot of wine, Feng Yinyin seemed a little drunk, with a slightly red face.

"Waiter, bring me another pot. No, bring me ten pots! I want to get drunk today!"

The waiter looked at the scene and was a little hesitant, not knowing whether he should serve the wine or not. He looked at Ling'er helplessly.

Ling'er waved at him, the waiter nodded and placed the wine on the table, then hurriedly retreated and closed the door.

As soon as she saw the wine coming up, Feng Yinyin stood up without saying anything, picked up a pot and poured it into her mouth, her posture was elegant and her red skirt was flying, looking extremely charming. Feng Yinyin's posture was so attractive that even a woman like Ling'er couldn't help but be moved, let alone a man.

The sake flowed too quickly, overflowing from the mouth and flowing along the corners of the mouth, so charming.

She was born with a good body, but her aura was very unstable, as if she had used some secret method to enhance her aura of seduction. Ordinary people could not see the clues of her body, but they could not escape her eyes. Such an improvement was tantamount to forcing the growth of seedlings, which would bring great sequelae. In the mildest case, it would affect the acquired cultivation and lead to infatuation. In the worst case, it would greatly reduce one's lifespan and even cause sudden death!

After finishing the jug, he threw it on the ground, and it broke into pieces. He was about to take another jug, but this time he was blocked by Ling'er.

"Wine makes me sadder. You invited me to relax, but why did you drink it yourself?"

"Lingxia, why do people in this world always have so many thoughts? Some are even two-faced, acting like human beings in front of people but devils behind their backs. Why is this world so unfair? Why do good people suffer while bad people are free and easy? Why is this? I can't figure it out. Can you tell me?" As he said that, he walked around Ling'er's hand, took another pot of wine, and took a big sip.

"Why are people's hearts so complicated? This is not the life I want. Why do I have to struggle in this world with this disliked skin? This place doesn't belong to me. I'm not happy at all, not at all!"

Feng Yinyin seemed a little drunk. She probably didn't know what she was saying. To be honest, Ling'er was also a little confused.

I thought she was unhappy because of her father's illegitimate daughter, but the more I listened, the more I felt that it was not that simple.

Logically speaking, she was the eldest daughter of Fenggu. Before Mo Lingling appeared, she was the only child of the valley master. She should have been the apple of everyone's eye. But not only did she use the secret technique that hurt the enemy by 800 but herself by 1,000, she now looked so desolate. Even if she didn't explain it clearly, one could still see some clues.

"As a human being, who can live an easy life? Behind the carefree attitude you see, everyone has a painful and desperate side, but it's just a matter of degree. When God closes a door for you, he will always open a window for you." Ling'er paused for a moment, then looked at Feng Yinyin from top to bottom and continued: "Look at you, you are so beautiful, no one can match you. Isn't this the window God opened for you?"

Hearing Ling'er's slightly amusing words, Feng Yinyin suddenly laughed, and laughed until tears came out. Then he suddenly raised his head and asked with a dazed look in his eyes: "Who is God?"

"Well, God is the heaven... a very powerful person... for example... for example, the god you believe in!"

"God? Is God a very powerful person? But I have never seen him. If he is so powerful, can he help me fulfill my wish? I want to be with my mother, and then retire to the mountains and forests and not care about worldly affairs. But where is God?"

Before Ling'er could react, an enlarged face appeared in front of her. Feng Yinyin suddenly came closer to her without her noticing.

He raised his hand, grabbed Ling'er's clothes and shook them, and asked again with a confused look on his face: "Lingxia, do you think there are really gods in this world? Can you help me find her?"

"... ... " I guess he was really drunk, he actually said something that sounded childish. So when you are in a bad mood, you must not drink, it is easy to get drunk.

"Okay, I'll help you find it. If I really find it one day, I will definitely let him fulfill any of your wishes." Ling'er's tone was like coaxing a child, but it was sincere. No one would have thought that a joke after drinking would really come true in the near future.

Suddenly, her body tensed up, and she was hit by Feng Yinyin. Because it was too sudden, Ling'er didn't have time to react. Looking at the drunk Feng Yinyin who threw himself on her, Ling'er was stunned on the spot, with her hands raised in the air, a little at a loss.

Although she was a woman, she was now dressed in men's clothing, so I should have pushed her away, but before I could do anything, I heard her sobbing.

Feng Yinyin always looks so free and easy, who would have thought that he would have such a vulnerable side. If you don't know a person deeply, never judge him based on his appearance or something, because you are not her, you don't know what she has experienced behind her beautiful smile.

"Okay, don't cry. After going through the wind and rain, you will become stronger and better. You must believe that there is a rainbow after the storm. All the unhappiness today is for better welcoming tomorrow. If you are really upset, just say it. I am willing to be a listener. If there is anything I can do to help you, just say it and I will definitely help you. Don't cry." He slowly retracted his words and patted her on the back.

I don't know how long Feng Yinyin cried, but she finally fell asleep from exhaustion, and Ling'er put her on the bed. When she woke up again, Ling'er was no longer in the room.

Because of the hangover, she still felt a little headache when she woke up, so she subconsciously reached out and knocked on it. Although she was drunk, she still remembered everything that happened before, including the scene where she hugged Ling'er. But after she sobered up and recalled it, she still felt a little shy.

Damn it, how could she think of drinking with Lingxia and cause all this trouble... How should she face him from now on? Would Lingxia also think that she was as frivolous, pretentious and shameless as the rumors said

Although she had only known Lingxia for a short time, to be honest, she really liked him. Otherwise, she would not have invited him to drink when she first saw him. It seemed that she was also a lustful person, greedy for beauty.

The door suddenly opened, followed by the waiter's voice.

"Miss Feng, are you awake?"

"Come in." Feng Yinyin looked at her neatly dressed clothes, got out of bed, sat on the chair, and poured a glass of water.

As the door was pushed open, the waiter came in carrying the food.

"Where is the young man who drank with me last night?"

The waiter placed the food on the table and said, "That young master left very early last night. When he left, he asked me to bring you some light porridge, side dishes and sobering soup after you wake up. Oh, by the way, the young master also left you a note when he left, asking me to pass it to you." As he said that, he took out the note and handed it to Feng Yinyin.

"I will help you tie up the god and make your wish come true. Be happy." There was only this sentence written on the note. Feng Yinyin smiled when he saw it.

He was a smart man. He didn't ask anything even though she was drunk. He just accompanied her quietly. He seemed to know that she didn't want to hear any questions. Maybe he was the only one who could make her happy in this situation.

As for the words Ling'er left for her, she took them as well-intentioned consolation and just laughed them off.

A man in black moved nimbly through the night, from houses to shops, from alleys to streets, and finally stopped in an open space in the suburbs.

"You've been following me all the way? Who are you? What's your purpose? Just tell me directly." The man's voice was hoarse and unpleasant, as if his throat was seriously injured.

As he finished speaking, a figure slowly walked out from behind him, also covered in black gauze, so his face could not be seen clearly.

"I want to make a deal with you." The voice was clear and sounded like that of a young man.

"Heh, someone who doesn't even want to reveal his identity is actually asking me for a deal. Don't you think it's ridiculous? Besides, I'm alone and have no desires or requests. Why do you think I will agree to it?"

"Although you have profound cultivation, you feel unbearable pain all over your body in rainy weather, and you can't even gather your spiritual power. Wuming, am I right?"

Wuming's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he seemed a little angry and a little surprised. He turned his hand into a blade and attacked the vital point of the man behind him. Because once this secret was known by his enemies, his situation would become very passive. This was his fatal weakness. Since this man knew his secret, he could not leave alive.

The attack was easily broken, and the man was slightly surprised. He should be young from the sound, but he didn't expect his cultivation to be quite high. After a few moves, Wuming stopped attacking.

"What deal?"

"I'll treat you, and you do three things for me. How's that? Isn't it a good deal?" The man said briskly, looking confident. "Of course, I'll do these three things only if you're willing. What do you think?"

"Okay, I promise."

The deal was done and the young man threw something to Wuming.

"That's the first thing you need to do, take a look."

After reading the content, Wuming nodded, which was considered as his agreement.

"Every full moon night, I will come to you to heal you." As he spoke, the man suddenly approached Wuming and pressed the acupuncture points on his upper body. Silver light flashed between his five fingers, and four silver needles instantly sank into his body.

"Try to gather all the energy in your body to the place where the needle is inserted."

Wuming then realized that this was a treatment for him. As expected, his body felt much lighter.

"I haven't done anything for you yet, aren't you afraid that I will regret it?"

"Your illness is an old one. It cannot be completely cured in one or two times. It requires multiple acupuncture treatments. In the later stages, you will also need my medicine. Of course, I am not afraid. Besides, since I can come to you, I have full confidence. Otherwise, I would have died in your hands long ago."

"... Wuming himself is not good at speaking, and after all this, he was actually a little speechless and didn't know what to say.

"Do what I tell you to do as soon as possible. You should know that this matter will benefit you and will not harm you. You are troubled by this matter now, aren't you?"

"What about the other two things?"

"When you finish the first task, I will come to you naturally when I need you to do the other two. Don't worry, I said that I will only let you do it if you are willing to do it."

"It's a deal."

"Okay, it's a deal." Just when Wuming was distracted, he suddenly slapped him on the back and spat out a mouthful of black blood onto the ground.

"This is some of the blood clots inside. I'll take it out for you. If the disease breaks out again, you will feel less pain." After he finished speaking, the young man disappeared on the spot.

After scanning the surroundings, there was no trace of him. Using his spiritual power to sense him, he was sure that he had left, so fast that he didn't even notice it. He really came and went without a trace.

"Little girl, it took me a long time to find you." The old man in black robe spoke coldly, with a strong aura of death emanating from his body.

It was really a narrow road that enemies meet. As soon as she turned back, she ran into the old man who had been chasing her.

"I let you escape last time, but I'm afraid you won't be so lucky this time."

"Why are you still haunting me, old man? I've already told you that I don't know you and I haven't taken anything from you. Why are you always chasing me? Are you mentally ill?" Anyway, it was obvious that this old man wanted to kill her, so she didn't need to be nice to him.

"You boy are so rude." The old man was a little angry. He waved his hand and formed a seal. Countless sharp blades came out from the glowing mark and went towards the direction where Ling'er was.

Oh my god, they started fighting over a disagreement. Can they have any humanity

Ling'er clearly felt that this attack was extremely powerful.
