Chapter 508: Chapter 508: For Goodness’ Sake
Hearing this from Lin Yun, Li Tian nodded. "Right now, our only lead is Chunfeng Tower. I don’t think we should make any rash moves against them yet."Lin Yun agreed with Li Tian. Indeed, Chunfeng Tower was the only clue he had. If he severed that connection, finding the mysterious organization’s true base of operations would become nearly impossible.
"Yes. In that case, we’ll wait. Guang Xuanji will definitely come looking for me," Lin Yun said softly with a faint smile.
He would play the waiting game. Lin Yun was certain Guang Xuanji would seek him out. She couldn’t afford a war of attrition; she would surely try everything she could to eliminate him.
He ordered Li Tian to keep a close watch on Chunfeng Tower and Guang Xuanji’s every move.
Playing the waiting game, Lin Yun made no moves for the next few days, immersing himself in his cultivation. However, the one causing him a major headache was that little hellion, Mo Qingliu.
In just five days, Mo Qingliu had managed to cause trouble nearly every single day, and each time, Lin Yun was the one who had to clean up her mess. Bai Ling and Mo Qingshui simply didn’t get involved.
Sure enough, today, while Lin Yun was cultivating in his room, another incident occurred. With the Elemental Power Stones, his cultivation speed had increased dramatically. He was now not far from the Ninth Layer of the Primordial Ocean Realm and believed he could break through within half a month.
Just as Lin Yun was deep in his cultivation, Shi Wu once again knocked on his door, shouting, "Brother Lin Yun, something terrible has happened...!"
’As soon as I hear Shi Wu’s voice, I don’t even have to think. It must be that little hellion Mo Qingliu causing trouble again.’
Annoyed, he opened the door and asked, "What is it now? If a Celestial Spirit Realm expert like you can’t handle it, what am I supposed to do?"
"Ah, this time it’s really serious! The Second Miss, she... the son of the head of the Celestial Spirit Auction House in Wind City... she..." Shi Wu said anxiously.
After hearing Shi Wu’s explanation, Lin Yun asked in shock, "Castrated him? She castrated Chairman Qian’s son?"
This Chairman Qian was also a Celestial Spirit Realm expert, and moreover, he was the head of the Celestial Spirit Auction House in Wind City. Because he was backed by the colossal powerhouse that was the Celestial Spirit Auction House, not even disciples from the Flawless Palace would dare to provoke him lightly.
Furthermore, Chairman Qian was normally quite tactful. He never caused trouble for the Flawless Palace and would even frequently send treasures to its higher-ups. As a result, their relationship was quite amicable.
However, this Chairman Qian was famous for doting on his son. Perhaps because he was his only son, born late in his life, to say Chairman Qian was indulgent would be an understatement.
And now, Mo Qingliu had castrated his son. Wasn’t that the same as ending his family line? How could Chairman Qian possibly let this go?
"Where is she now?" Lin Yun calmed himself and asked Shi Wu. Since it had already happened, there was no point in panicking.
"Chairman Qian tied her up and took her to the Celestial Spirit Auction House. That’s why I rushed back to find you," Shi Wu blurted out.
She had been taken to the Celestial Spirit Auction House. Lin Yun fell into deep thought. Chairman Qian had only one son, who was now... ruined. It was easy to imagine that he would never let Mo Qingliu off easily.
Moreover, Chairman Qian was part of the Celestial Spirit Auction House, so even the Flawless Palace had to show him some deference. You have to give face to the power behind the man. On top of that, Chairman Qian was on excellent terms with the Flawless Palace’s higher-ups. The Palace would probably side with him once they heard about this.
Lin Yun remained silent for a long time. Seeing this, Shi Wu asked anxiously, "Brother Lin Yun, what are we going to do? Say something! The Second Miss has already been taken away."
