Cheng Yuan suppressed his hatred for his family in his tone, and then said.

"It has been a long time since anyone from the four major families has reached the Nascent Soul stage. Yu Tu has had some kind of opportunity to improve his cultivation by leaps and bounds over the years. Everyone in Linfen City speculated that he would be the first person from the four major families to enter the Nascent Soul stage. Unexpectedly, I My father will be the first to get there, and he will definitely not give up on the journey. When my father overcomes the catastrophe, there will definitely be another bloody storm!"

Yun Duo didn't know how to comfort him. Since they were firmly in high positions, they had to endure the difficulties that came with it.

Cheng Yuan chatted with her for a while and then left.

The next schedule allowed Cheng Yuan to take her to the hall again.

"Little friend Yun, please forgive me for my neglect in the past two days!"

When Cheng Qi saw Yun Duo coming, he greeted her politely and then asked her to take a seat.

"Master Cheng, you're welcome."

After Yun Duo sat down, Cheng Qi took out a jade bottle from his storage bag.

"Little friend Yun, the Jiuqu Lingshen Pill was refined yesterday. You must have heard about it. Here are two pills. I hope you don't dislike them."

After saying that, Cheng Qi pushed the jade bottle towards her twice more.

She heard yesterday that the Cheng family's alchemist had only refined five pills in total, but the Cheng family was reluctant to give her two pills.

"Old Master Cheng, this spiritual plant was obtained by Young Master Cheng. This junior deserves it!"

Yun Duo declined politely.

"You are so polite, little friend Yun. If you save Yuan'er's life, you have saved the entire Cheng family. Not to mention a few pills, even if you give up the Cheng family, you deserve it."

Now that the words have come to this point, Yun Duo will feel a little ungrateful if he refuses any more.

She accepted the jade bottle and said goodbye.

Cheng Yuan originally wanted to persuade her to stay for a few more days to see the scene when Cheng Zhi passed through the tribulation, but before he could speak, Cheng Qi raised his hand and interrupted.

"Since little friend Yun has something important to do, I won't force you to stay here. I hope you will come to Fencheng more often when you have free time in the future!"

Yun Duo agreed wholeheartedly, and the three of them exchanged a few polite words before she left.

As soon as Yun Duo left, Cheng Yuan couldn't help but eagerly moved towards Cheng Qi.

"Grandpa, why don't you keep fellow Taoist Yun to stay for a few more days? Didn't you say that becoming friends with her will be good for our Cheng family in the future?"

Cheng Yuan didn't understand why his grandfather said one thing and did another!

"Yuan'er, you can't just look at things on the surface. Xiaoyou Yun is leaving at this juncture just to avoid getting involved in the disputes between the four major families. It's not just our Cheng family that belongs to the Lingyun Sect in Linfen City. It's the same with other families. This is between us. It is not appropriate for Little Friend Yun to stay here."

Cheng Qi saw that his proud grandson, who was already in his twenties, could not see things as clearly as an eleven or twelve-year-old girl. He couldn't help but shake his head. He still had a lot to learn.

Cheng Yuan was already smart, and Cheng Qi knew everything. When he realized that he had asked a stupid question, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

As soon as Yun Duo walked out of Cheng's house, he felt the demon-slaying sword inside his body began to stir.

There were demon cultivators around, so she immediately stopped and looked around.

If no suspicious person is found, it means that the other party is hiding in the dark.

Yun Duo originally wanted to leave Linfen City, but now that she had sensed the aura of the demon cultivator, she couldn't just leave it alone.

Standing in the busy city was too conspicuous, so she found a secret place to hide. She would be able to detect any movement of the demon cultivator.

As soon as Yun Duo hid in the alley, he heard comments coming from not far away.

"Hey, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

"Lao Zhang, a sesame seed seller in the west of the city, whose son just married a new daughter-in-law yesterday, disappeared during the wedding night."

"Ah, no, this is the first time this month that a new wife has disappeared!"

"Who says it's not? I heard it's the fifth one. The city lord's palace has been notified, but the gangster hasn't been caught yet."

"How can it be so easy to catch? You forgot that brides have been missing one after another since a year ago. No matter how long we have been investigating, there is still no clue at all."

"Well, in the past, one or two disappeared a month, and no one took it seriously. This month has only been the fifth, and now we are finally panicking. Who knows whether the next missing person will be his daughter or his new wife? daughter in law."

"These gangsters are so bold in broad daylight. They have made the people in the city panic. If this continues, who will dare to marry their daughter and take a new wife."

"Who says it's not the case? I don't know whether these girls are alive or dead now."

The two old women looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

What could those captured girls do if they were still alive? After being caught on their wedding night and so much time had passed, who would believe them even if they were innocent? In the end, the only way out was to be immersed in a pig cage.

The two old women drifted apart, and the discussion became indistinct.

Yun Duo looked in the direction of the demon cultivator, wondering if these missing brides were related to them.

After staying in the dark for a while, the demonic cultivator walked out from the depths of the yard, walking hurriedly with a golden elixir cultivator beside him.

She quickly followed Mo Xiu and saw them turning left and right into an alley. She used her spiritual sense to check around to make sure no one was following them, then she opened a courtyard door and walked in.

Yun Duo affixed invisibility charms and invisibility charms on his body to make sure that he would not be discovered and activated his spiritual energy to follow closely.

The courtyard was empty and there were no guards patrolling it. There were only a few foundation-building monks guarding the entrance of the courtyard. The courtyard gave people a cold and dim feeling, making people feel like they were being targeted by venomous snakes for no reason.

Yun Duo activated the demon-slaying sword to feel the aura of the demon cultivator. Following the aura, she touched the inner courtyard, where the demon cultivator reported the matter to someone.

"Don't worry, the matter has been taken care of. Everything is ready. All we need is the east wind. As long as Cheng Zhi causes thunder and disaster, our plan will be completed."

Yun Duo came at a bad time. She didn't hear the previous content. She only heard Cheng Zhi's name. She knew what the demon cultivator was planning behind the scenes, but she didn't know the specific content.

"Okay, things have come to a critical moment. Keep an eye on the Cheng family these days. This matter can only succeed and not fail. Do you hear me?"

The voice sounded familiar to Yun Duo, but he couldn't remember who it was.

"Don't worry, young master, everything is under our control."

Yun Duo heard the word "young master" and suddenly remembered who the owner of the voice was, Yu Bin, the young master of the Yu family.
