Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 351 - 349: Jiang Lingyue: I Was Here First! Lu Ye Doesn’t Know What the Fall of the Five Poison Sect Means
"Then shouldn’t you keep a bit of distance from me to avoid spreading any rumors?" After thinking for a moment, Lu Ye said.
"I’m... I’m not afraid!" Unexpectedly, Jiang Lingyue said resolutely.
"Since I was on the mountain, I knew this day would eventually come." Jiang Lingyue said, biting her lip slightly.
"I... I just like you, no one can change this fact, even if father beats me to death, I’ll still say it!"
"Back when elder sister bullied you, I already developed feelings for you."
"If you really count it, I... I was the first one here!"
As she spoke, Jiang Lingyue was cheering herself on.
Really, clearly I was here first and the first to get close to the bad guy, why should I step aside?
It’s unfair!
"Really, you’re not afraid even if you’re beaten to death?"
Looking at Jiang Lingyue’s forced calm expression, Lu Ye couldn’t help but smile slightly and asked softly.
He could still see that Jiang Lingyue was somewhat afraid of her father.
"No... not afraid!" Jiang Lingyue said through gritted teeth.
At this moment, Lin Yuan, who had been watching for a while, suddenly walked over, looked at Jiang Lingyue, and asked with a smile.
"Junior Sister Jiang, what a coincidence, I didn’t expect to meet you here."
"I didn’t expect to also meet Brother Lin here, greetings, Brother Lin."
Considering her slightly lower seniority, Jiang Lingyue responded with a bow instead of putting on airs when Lin Yuan greeted her.
The next moment, Lin Yuan naturally shifted the topic to Lu Ye beside her, curiously asking, "This person looks a bit unfamiliar, he shouldn’t be a disciple of Wuxiang Sect, may I ask what relation he has with Junior Sister Jiang."
Jiang Lingyue directly said, "This is my brother-in-law."
She understood a long time ago that nothing can be hidden forever.
After asking her sister tentatively last time and discovering her sister seemed reluctant to dissolve the engagement with her brother-in-law.
Jiang Lingyue knew...
Her sister probably wouldn’t dissolve the engagement.
Thus, the difficulty of keeping this matter hidden also increased, so instead of always being passive, it’s better to turn passive into active and stop deliberately hiding it!
If indeed luck is bad and the truth is discovered, then tell the truth.
Faced with Jiang Lingyue’s words, Lu Ye didn’t show anything unusual.
He actually understood better than Jiang Lingyue that this day would come sooner or later, but when he mentioned it previously, Jiang Lingyue was a bit scared.
Unexpectedly now, she is the one who’s not panicked.
Upon hearing Jiang Lingyue’s answer, Lin Yuan nodded.
"So it’s Junior Sister Jiang’s brother-in-law, I’ve heard of you, Fellow Daoist. You’re a promising disciple of the Red Cloud Sect."
While speaking, Lin Yuan cupped his hands towards Lu Ye.
However, despite the seemingly amicable tone, there was still a hint of arrogance in his posture.
Even though Lu Ye’s previous identity was from the Red Cloud Sect.
Lin Yuan believed that his cultivation level was undoubtedly higher than most Red Cloud Sect disciples, only the few top disciples of the Red Cloud Sect could slightly surpass him.
And right now, Jiang Lingyue’s so-called brother-in-law obviously couldn’t measure up.
Giving him face was mostly due to the identity of Junior Sister Jiang’s brother-in-law, with only a small part due to the Red Cloud sect disciples.
Facing Lin Yuan’s attitude, Lu Ye nodded lightly, not taking it to heart.
Even during the Martial Arts Grandmaster period, Lu Ye wouldn’t let others’ opinions affect his emotions.
Now having advanced to Mortal Realm Grandmaster Second Layer, he wouldn’t be swayed by others’ opinions even more.
Mind as calm as water.
Seeing Lu Ye’s calm expression, Lin Yuan’s thoughts stirred, he chuckled and continued.
"Right, Junior Sister Jiang, you often stay at Dan Peak and rarely interact with other junior brothers and sisters, there’s a major recent event, I wonder if you’ve heard about it."
Seeing Lin Yuan subtly disdain her brother-in-law, Jiang Lingyue coldly said, "I don’t know, and I don’t want to know, if there’s nothing else, Brother Lin, please go."
Beside her, Lu Ye showed a hint of curiosity, waved his hand and said, "Oh? I’m somewhat curious, Fellow Daoist Lin, why not share what it is."
Seeing her brother-in-law having spoken, Jiang Lingyue thought for a moment and didn’t continue to drive him away.
In response, Lin Yuan pulled out his usual folding fan, snapped it open and fanned it twice, with an air of mystery he said.
"Previously, the demise of the Five Poison Sect, such a major news, you must have heard of it, but a few days ago, this news hadn’t been confirmed by any side and everything was in unknown status."
"But now... finally there is accurate news spreading!"
"The Five Poison Sect, once known as the first power in our Northern Territory, has indeed been destroyed by mysterious figures! The vast headquarters has been completely annihilated by the mysterious supreme experts, empty of anyone!"
On hearing Lin Yuan’s words, Lu Ye’s gaze shifted slightly.
So much time has passed, finally there’s someone daring to approach the Five Poison Headquarters location and roughly investigate the Five Poison Sect’s situation?
After speaking, Lin Yuan immediately looked at the two.
Jiang Lingyue appeared visibly shocked, as Lin Yuan had anticipated.
As for the young man beside, he still showed little expression, which made Lin Yuan somewhat uncomfortable inside.
Confirming that the Five Poison Sect truly faced incidents, and its fall, this news could be considered the most astounding in the Northern Territory for decades.
How can this Jiang Family son-in-law... maintain such an indifferent demeanor?
Does he understand what the brutal and insidious Five Poison Sect represented in the Northern Territory?
Don’t say he’s just an Inner Sect Disciple from the Red Cloud Sect back then, even the Red Cloud Sect Leader wouldn’t be enough in face of the Five Poison Sect!
"Looking at Fellow Daoist Lu’s expression, it seems he had anticipated this event," Lin Yuan coldly chuckled and said indifferently.
This time, Jiang Lingyue also heard that Lin Yuan was indeed targeting her brother-in-law.
Immediately, Jiang Lingyue raised an eyebrow: "Lin Yuan, watch your words, what my brother-in-law knows or anticipates has nothing to do with you? If you keep this up, don’t blame me for reporting to the Sect Leader!"
Upon hearing, Lin Yuan’s expression froze.
Even setting aside Jiang Lingyue’s famous Tier Four Alchemy Master mentor status, just she herself, as the youngest Tier Two Alchemist in Wuxiang Sect’s history... is enough for the Wuxiang Sect Leader to pay attention!
If really mentioned before the Sect Leader, Lin Yuan would only face punishment.
Gritting his teeth, Lin Yuan cupped his hands towards Lu Ye: "Apologies, I was a bit offensive to Fellow Daoist Lu earlier, I’m here to apologize."
Just then, a somewhat weak-looking man, accompanied by two Innate Guards, walked over.
Walking, he said, "This time, greatly thanks to the unswerving supreme expert who rescued me from the Five Poison Sect."
