Chapter 79 -67: What exactly is Ling Yunduan’s origin?
At this moment, the sun was setting. Facing away from the lingering light of the sunset, Feng Yin strolled towards his own yard, an air of relaxation about him.
Having successfully evaded being followed, and that too by a strong adversary, Feng Yin, despite his calm demeanor, felt somewhat exhilarated.
His footsteps were remarkably lighter as well.
Good heavens, I really am a genius.
That level of expert surveillance, and I was able to shake it off.
But this Spiritual Transformation Technique really is something special. It can even seal my divine consciousness immediately. It’s all thanks to my cleverness and calmness in facing danger.
The very act of delivering a package for the other party already felt like a puzzling encounter, a mysterious twist of fate. Furthermore, the other party’s method left Feng Yin quite irritated.
But the weak can’t possibly fight the strong. Feng Yin admitted that he couldn’t provoke such a horrifying existence.
At the very least, it’s not something he could afford to provoke right now.
It was lucky that Feng Yin’s curiosity wasn’t strong. He had a clear understanding of his own limitations, had no intentions of prying into things, or bearing more karmic debts.
Thus he didn’t even attempt to peek at what was inside the other party’s package.
The whole matter should have ended with the package delivery. However, to Feng Yin’s dismay, the other party had sent someone to track him.
Feng Yin couldn’t be certain whether the other party bore good or bad intentions towards him. But he wasn’t interested in guessing their motives.
If it’s goodwill, I won’t accept it.
If it’s ill-will, I’ll avoid it even more.
I’m just a little grasshopper, really not worth the meat!
Very simple. No matter what, I won’t let you know my real details. After that, I’ll have nothing to do with your Universe Building.
Feng Yin, who didn’t want to amass more karma, understood one thing very clearly: If his own worth was discovered by others, he’d be done for.
Moreover, he was a complete stranger to the other party.
Just these two points alone were enough to make Feng Yin stay alert.
“Whether it’s good or evil is irrelevant. Whether their intentions are benign or malicious doesn’t matter. Carrying out a favor is the limit. Especially when that favor is a threat I cannot bear and must temporarily succumb to. Going forward…..at least, it will only be when I can handle you, that I will confront you directly.”
This was Feng Yin’s rationale.
Quite simple and pure!
As a transmigrator, his understanding, his insights, be it societal wisdom, control over human emotions, understanding of human nature, or his level of insight into human dark side, had all given him great confidence that he is unrivalled in this world!
Sometimes, he even feels that these experiences and knowledge from the previous world were his true golden finger.
But one undeniable fact was, his initial aptitude was not good. Without a real cheat, even if he was smart, or understood human nature, or was adept at pursuing advantages and evading disadvantages, there would still be no way for him to reach the peak.
The greatest achievement would perhaps be someone else’s chief strategist. And even if he succeeded in a rebellion, or unified the world, he would be nothing more than a prime minister, the kind that would want to wash their hands off affairs as soon as they secured their position, for them to truly be second only to one person and above all others, is unrealistic.
This was the drawback of having no power or confidence. It was beyond his control and he could not be assertive when speaking.
But now, the Spiritual Transformation Technique and the little knife existence made up for his biggest weakness.
“Since I had the luck to come to such a wonderful and chaotic world, in this martial world where might is respected, how can I be willing to live a bland life? How can I be resigned to live an ordinary life like everyone else? Now that I have the Spiritual Transformation Technique, why can’t I live a long, insightful life?”
This was Feng Yin’s ambition.
Seems like I’ve deviated a bit, but that’s who Feng Yin is.
Just his current ambitions!
…
Feng Yin was feeling somewhat anxious as he headed home.
He had been out for a long time this time and Feng Ying must be eagerly awaiting his return. Once he got back, the little one would probably be in a bad mood and get temperamental.
Thinking of the little fluffy ball-like creature acting all cute, Feng Yin’s lips instinctively curved up into a somewhat affectionate smile before he even realized it himself.
…
At the same time.
He Xiangming was holding a piece of paper, her eyebrows furrowed in thought.
On it were the results of investigations into ‘Ling Yunduan’, the younger man she had taken a liking to, carried out by all the forces of the Beast Taming Sect in and around Yuezhou.
They had conducted a fully three-dimensional investigation.
He Xiangming, who had been in charge of all the business related to the Beast Taming Sect in Yuezhou for many years, wouldn’t have survived this long just relying on her infatuation if she had been simply following impulses.
So even though she had taken a great liking to Feng Yin, when it came down to basic precautions and necessary investigations, they were still essential.
But at this moment, holding the investigation report on ‘Ling Yunduan,’ she was left feeling puzzled.
The man named Ling Yunduan on this paper seemed to have almost no past.
He seemed to have dropped from the sky all of a sudden.
About a year and a half ago, he had rented this house here by himself for a few months. During that period, he had lived alone without any family, hardly interacting with his neighbors.
Then, a few months later, he had disappeared, leaving the house vacant for a long time.
But no one knew where he had gone.
Until a few days ago, when he suddenly reappeared, and this time, he leased the house for a whole year.
Moreover, there’s also a little cat by his side now, which, he claimed, was intended for the pet business.
What truly is his identity?
Where does he come from?
What is his real name?
What did he do before?
Who are his parents?
What family does he belong to?
What forces are behind him?
What’s his purpose?
All these remain unknown.
“The only change is that the last time he lived here, there was a faint mix of chilling murderous intent on him. That’s a kind of aura that appears after a considerable number of killings.”
“This murderous intent he gives off is very familiar, it suggests a ruthless, almost kill-or-be-killed attitude. This type of aura is often found among assassins from various major organizations.”
“Because of the existence of Heavenly Judge, such assassins are not uncommon in the territories of Great Qin, but what is rare is that, Ling Yunduan, who now reappears, has lost that chilling feeling he exhibited before.”
“Murderous intent can be suppressed, but the most common method involves ceasing the act of killing and gradually mitigating the intent over many years. Given Ling Yunduan’s young age and the brief time frame, this clearly isn’t his method. He must’ve found a way to hide his intent, likely a technique or methodology that can conceal his aura. This makes him appear to have a return-to-nature innocence, but it’s definitely not because he’s ceased killing.”
“What’s more, the last time he lived here, his cultivation was only at the Houtian seventh rank; but now it has broken through to the Innate level. Such a leap in progress… although a bit fast, it would be considered normal for a solid disciple in a sect.”
“Of course, compared to the true core prodigies, he falls short.”
“After all, his aptitude does not seem weak, and his physique seems quite balanced. But it’s safe to conclude that his aptitude isn’t top-tier. Otherwise, his cultivation level would not be at its current state.”
“From an assassin’s perspective, he’s done a brilliant job hiding his true self, much better than half a year ago.”
“In summary, Ling Yunduan might be an assassin from some organization; and now, probably having gained some wealth, he might either want to leave the profession, or use it to hide another identity. There are two possibilities.”
The maid stood before He Xiangming, detailing the investigation report.

It must be said, the Beast Taming Sect, one of the seven major sects, has reached the peak in terms of its investigation and analytical abilities.
At least from the surface, they haven’t missed any traces that Feng Yin left.
“The houses on either side of where he currently lives are, on the left, was previously occupied by a retired official. However, because the family was found guilty of betraying and siding with the enemy, it was confiscated and remains unoccupied. On the right side, there’s an elderly couple. Their three sons have all joined the army, leaving only the elder daughter-in-law and a grandson at home.”
“According to this family, Ling Yunduan doesn’t interact with neighbors. He doesn’t come off as unsociable, but there’s a very evident vibe of ‘loneliness amidst the crowd’, as if he rejects any form of acquaintance.”
“This time when he returned, the old couple did not bother to visit him pretending they didn’t notice his return. But to say they’re scared, they’re not. The old woman evaluates: ‘This boy doesn’t look like a bad person.'”
The maid finished her report.
He Xiangming pondered, her eyebrows furrowed and biting her lower lip.
“I see… maybe it really is…
“But what’s his purpose in coming back to Yuezhou City?”
“Is his target me? Or the Beast Taming Sect?”
“Is our encounter a coincidence or intentionally arranged?”
“But this young fellow gives me a pretty good impression.”
He Xiangming sighed lightly, her eyes flickering.
“Regardless of your background and intentions, I will just keep an eye on your movements for a while. Over time, any trace or clue will eventually surface.”
He Xiangming quickly made up her mind.
Since I was the first to engage with him, and it was about a pet, did I voluntarily approach him for … bait? It couldn’t be, could it?
Regardless, He Xiangming realized that even if she wanted to let go now, after this report, she was already incapable of doing so.
“What a mess… ”
He Xiangming sighed a little.
The more she investigated, the more confusing it seemed.
There was a vague feeling that things were getting complicated. She needed to figure it out as soon as possible.
…
When Feng Yin returned home and opened the door,
“Meow~~”
“Chirp!”
“Chirp!”
In a whoosh, he was laden with three new charms.
