1874 Clues

Qing Mengmeng and Ji Daiyu were stunned by Yun Lintian's question.

Yun Lintian continued speaking. "He is the servant of the Qing Clan's eldest young miss who was accused many years ago."

"I know…" Old Man Tang struggled to speak.

"Grandpa Tang!" Qing Mengmeng hurriedly helped the old man to his feet.

"What do you want to know, sir?" Old Man Tang struggled to speak.

"He is my friend." Yun Lintian slowly descended from the sky and landed on the ground before Qing Mengmeng. "Do you know that someone in your Qing Clan framed him?"

Ji Daiyu and Qing Mengmeng were taken aback. They didn't expect a servant of the Qing Clan to know such an expert.

Yun Lintian frowned slightly and threw a pill toward him. "Take it."

Qing Mengmeng grabbed the pill and looked at it with surprise. Without a doubt, it was a high-quality pill. She then hastily placed the pill in the old man's mouth.

A moment later, the old man's unsettled spirit began to calm, and his injuries gradually healed.

Ji Daiyu's pupils shrank. He had seen many high-quality pills before, but none of them could facilitate such rapid recovery.

Fear immediately flooded Ji Daiyu's heart. If the old man were to recover, it would be a disaster for him.

Ji Daiyu's mind raced. He struggled hard with the decision of whether to attempt an escape.

Old Man Tang cupped his fists and expressed his gratitude. "Thank you, sir. I owe you my life."

"I don't care about it. Just answer my question." Yun Lintian said calmly.

Old Man Tang nodded and said. "Of course, we know it wasn't Zhao Ming who revealed the eldest lady's whereabouts. It's clear that someone set him up. However, the person who did it has already escaped."

He turned to look at Ji Daiyu and continued speaking. "Maybe he knows about it."

Yun Lintian looked at Ji Daiyu, waiting for his explanation.

Ji Daiyu seemed to catch a glimmer of hope. He spoke hurriedly. "I know who it is. He is a spy we raised. His name is Li Chao. I can take you to see him, sir."

"Take me to see him?" Yun Lintian looked at Ji Daiyu with a playful smile. "Do you think I am stupid, or you are stupid?"

Ji Daiyu was stunned and quickly corrected. "This is a misunderstanding, sir. I mean, I can call him out."

Yun Lintian laughed. "I have a better way. How about I send your arm back to your clan and ask for this Li Chao?"

Ji Daiyu's face turned deathly pale. Although he could regrow his arm, it would take a lot of effort and time. After all, he was a soul without a physical body.

"Sir, may I express my opinion?" Qing Mengmeng suddenly spoke.

Old Man Tang wanted to stop her, but he held back when he saw Yun Lintian's calm expression. Perhaps Yun Lintian would listen to her.

"Do you want to take him back in exchange for your sister?" Yun Lintian asked directly.lightsnovel

Qing Mengmeng nodded vigorously. "Yes. I can do anything in return, sir."

"Really? Anything?" Yun Lintian inadvertently glanced at Qing Mengmeng's well-developed figure.

Qing Mengmeng trembled slightly. She bit her lip and lowered her head. "If you want my body, sir... I can give it to you."

"No, Young Miss! Absolutely not!" Old Man Tang grew anxious.

Qing Mengmeng smiled and said. "This is my decision, Grandpa. As long as I can get my sister back, everything is worth it."

Upon seeing this, Yun Lintian decided to tease her even more. "You know, I have a big appetite. How about accompanying me for a year?"

Qing Mengmeng was stunned.

Old Man Tang quickly stepped in front of Qing Mengmeng and fixed Yun Lintian with a serious gaze. "I cannot agree with this, sir. Please leave her alone. As for this life, I will return to you."

As he spoke, he raised his hand, preparing to take his own life.

"No, Grandpa!" Qing Mengmeng hurriedly stopped him.

Yun Lintian immediately felt bored when he saw this. He put away the smile and said expressionlessly. "Forget it. I was just teasing you."

He glanced at the old man and continued speaking. "Your life is worthless to me. It doesn't matter to me whether you want to live or die."

Old Man Tang lowered his hand and bowed deeply. "Thank you for sparing the young miss, sir."

Yun Lintian looked at Ji Daiyu and asked. "How is her sister?"

Ji Daiyu quickly replied. "Although she has been imprisoned, no one has ever touched her in the past decade. After all, we know that Qing Heng would become frantic if anything happened to her."

Qing Mengmeng felt relieved after hearing this. At least her elder sister was fine.

"Do you think your family will exchange her and Li Chao for you?" Yun Lintian asked calmly. "Think carefully before answering."

In fact, Yun Lintian didn't care about the so-called eldest lady of the Qing Clan or the life and death of either clan. He simply wanted to deliver the culprit responsible for Zhao Ming's incident to him. If it couldn't be done, he would just let it be.

Ji Daiyu struggled hard. A moment later, he gritted his teeth and said. "I don't think they will exchange them for me."

"Oh? Why is that?" Yun Lintian asked with a faint smile.

"She holds more value to the Ji Clan than I do." Ji Daiyu revealed a wry smile. "They captured Qing Xiwei because she can be used to threaten the Qing Clan for a spot on the Bridge of Oblivion[1]."

"Bridge of Oblivion?" Yun Lintian was surprised. "It's still there?"

"Yes," Ji Daiyu responded. "Although the bridge has been destroyed, there is still a lingering sense of power around the place. We usually use that place to temper our souls."

"The value is higher than that." Old Man Tang took the initiative to explain. "If one desires to break through the God Emperor Realm and achieve godhood, they must pass through the bridge and gain its approval. If they are fortunate, they will have the opportunity to be reincarnated."

Yun Lintian became interested. "Wouldn't this imply that the path to reincarnation wasn't completely destroyed?"

"You can understand it that way, sir." Old Man Tang replied. "However, only one person has ever achieved it in the past million years."
