Chapter 22

Under the scorching sun, the majestic Ye Mansion stands quietly. The capital of the capital has a building that is comparable to a palace waiting for a king, and the Ye Mansion is a symbol of wealth. All kinds of commodities and silk shops, almost [-]% of the industry in the capital belongs to Yefu, which shows its huge business.

Xiao Cui was tidying up a few guest rooms and was about to go back to her own room for a cup of tea. However, just as she opened the door and stepped in, she felt a chill on her neck, and she saw a sharp sword point across her throat when she lowered her eyes. She was shocked and was about to scream, but she heard a cold warning in due time, "Don't make a sound."

Xiaocui hurriedly covered her mouth tightly, turned her head tremblingly, and saw a handsome and cold man in a black robe standing behind her, staring at her with exquisite eyes.

Xiaocui thought that a thief had entered, swallowed nervously, and said in a trembling voice, "What are you doing? I... I have no money..."

Ling Xiefeng pulled his lips and said in a low voice, "Just tell me where Lin Chuchu is, and I'll let you go."

"Lin Chuchu? The master is asking Miss Lin?" Xiaocui's heart relaxed, and her fear eased a bit.

"Hmm." A look of joy flashed across Ling Xiefeng's eyes, and he said with a cold face, "Where is she?"

"Miss Lin was sent away by the master three days ago." Xiao Cui replied truthfully, the last time was just Ye Changnian's tricks, but everyone in the Ye Mansion knew that Lin Chuchu had left the mansion.

Ling Xiefeng frowned, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where did you send it?"

"This servant doesn't know..." Xiaocui shook her head, and felt a pain in her shoulder the next moment, she fainted, and the black figure disappeared into the room.

Ye Changnian had just returned to his room from drinking tea in the living room. Originally, he just came back to get the ledger. However, when he walked to the door, his sharp eyes glanced at the unclosed gate. He was startled, and his shrewd eyes swept towards the room. , Knowing that someone was waiting for him in the room, he pretended not to know and pushed the door open, the first thing he said when he entered the door was, "Come out!"

Ling Xiefeng's figure floated down from the beams of the house, his frowning brows showed a hint of surprise, Ye Changnian's keen observation ability showed that he was not just a commoner, he must possess martial arts skills, Ye Changnian turned his head and saw that he was a graceful man, He was stunned, and asked with his hands behind his back, "Why is the young master looking for the old man?"

For the sake of safety, Ling Xiefeng's sword was still on Ye Changnian's neck like a shooting star, and he asked in a low voice, "Where is Lin Chuchu going?"

"It turned out to be for Miss Chuchu. If the young master can find me, he must already know that I sent her away." Ye Changnian looked at the man in front of him, and read a dangerous signal from his bright eyes. That move of his horizontal sword was even more inconceivably fast, which shows that this person's skill is extraordinary.

"Ye Tianshang, the richest man in the capital who turned out to be born three years ago, as far as I know, before three years ago, there seemed to be no one with the surname Ye who was ever wealthy, and the surname Ye was even more unknown. This shows the origin of Yefu. Not shallow, may I ask Master Ye, is there any ulterior secret in this?" Ling Xiefeng pursed his thin lips with a probing sneer, and his gaze cast a compelling gaze on Ye Changnian's slightly discolored face.

Ye Changnian's heart trembled, and he quickly smiled and said, "Master, you have misunderstood. You are from the Cangyun Sect. You want to find Miss Chuchu's whereabouts. Why don't you go back to the Cangyun Sect to have a look?"

Ling Xiefeng's eyes darkened suddenly, and he asked in a low voice, "Where do you think she is?"

"I just heard that Miss Chuchu mentioned that she was going to this place." Ye Changnian said indifferently, the sword on his neck disappeared in a flash, and when Ling Xiefeng was about to walk towards the window, he could not help but warn, "Master , Yefu is innocent and his family background is clear, the old man is just a businessman, please be alert, sir."

Ling Xiefeng pulled his lips, hummed softly, and left through the window.In the room, Ye Changnian's face was no longer calm, and his old brows were full of worry.

Among the green mountains and green waters, a carriage was walking across the middle of the road. The carriage was moving forward at a steady pace. Lin Chuchu and Wang Yanchen were sitting in the carriage, and they were heading towards Cangyun Mountain.

"My lord, how long will it take to reach Cangyun Mountain at this speed?" Lin Chuchu asked curiously. She found that these two people didn't seem to be in a hurry, but seemed to be traveling in mountains and rivers.

"It will take another seven days." Wang Yanchen replied with a smile. His greater interest in coming out this time was to relax. He went to the Cangyun sect, and just stopped by to meet the master who was about to leave the customs and give him a gift.

Seven days?Lin Chuchu thought silently in her heart, with her status as a modern house girl, wandering on the road for seven days is indeed a difficult concept to accept. With this beautiful man by her side, she will not be lonely, but she is always thinking about it. Concerned about Ling Xiefeng's safety, he didn't know what happened to him.

"How did Mr. Lin know the second master?" Wang Yanchen asked with interest, his bright starry eyes were as bright as his words.

"Oh! I just met on the road." Lin Chuchu replied with a smile, and the embarrassment of meeting Ling Xiefeng for the first time appeared in her mind.

Wang Yanchen nodded, and did not ask abruptly, but Lin Chuchu said jokingly, "I've always wondered, since Ling Xiefeng is a disciple of the Cangyun Sect, how could he be a killer?"

Hearing this, Wang Yanchen wasn't too surprised, but just sighed softly, "Second Senior Brother, he has difficulties."

"Oh? What's the reason?" Lin Chuchu's face was full of interest, and she really wanted to know, what's the reason for this indifferent Ling Xiefeng?
"He is my master's son. After they had a quarrel two years ago, the second senior brother went down the mountain and never returned to the Cangyun sect. According to later disciples, the second senior brother is already a well-known killer in the world."

"What? What do you mean? It's impossible for Ling Xiefeng to return to the Cangyun faction?" Lin Chuchu cried out in surprise. Since he was not there, why would she go to the Cangyun faction?
"This... I don't know either." Wang Yanchen raised his brows, a little confused.
