The womenfolk of the Ling family were wailing for their parents. The originally glorious Ling family had turned into such a sorry state overnight. It truly made one sigh.
"The Imperial Concubine! Quick, we have to find the Imperial Concubine!"
The one who said this was Ling Yi’s younger brother, who was also Ling Xi’s second granduncle Ling Yihui. Now that Ling Yi was dead, he had become the head of the Ling family. But just when he was about to go and ask for the Imperial Concubine’s help, a black-robed girl appeared in front of the Ling family with a decree in hand.
"Our Majesty’s decree: the Ling family shall leave today’s matter as it is. They shall not trouble Gu Ruoyun and the Luo family, or else, they would have to accept the consequences!"
After seeing the decree in the black-robed girl’s hands, Ling Yihui kept quiet…
Because he was completely stunned!
Good heavens, a hunt order from the Dark Yin Palace? Could it be that this black-robed girl was a member of the Dark Yin Palace?
In the Mainland, you might not know about the names of the four countries, you might also not know the surname of the Weapon Refining Sect’s supreme leader, but there was no one who did not know about the Dark Yin Palace.
The collective power of the Dark Yin Palace might not be as formidable as the Weapon Refining Sect, but because the Dark Yin Palace was a nursery for assassins, and they accepted jobs to assassinate people in the outside world, they were widely known.
The Dark Yin Palace would give a hunt order before killing a person. There was never a person whom they could not kill after they had decided to hunt them down. More importantly, until today, nobody knew where the Dark Yin Palace was located.
That was why the people of the Mainland would be wary at the sound of the name "Dark Yin Palace".
He did not expect the Luo family to know people from the Dark Yin Palace.
Indeed, in Ling Yihui’s mind, the Luo family had dared to snatch a person away so brazenly all because of Dark Yin Palace as their backer! As for Gu Ruoyun, he had completely overlooked her…
As a little girl who had not finished growing, how could she know of the Majesty of the Dark Yin Palace? It was impossible!
"Second Granduncle, you cannot listen to her!" Ling Yu’s expression changed abruptly and she said with blood red eyes, "You must go find my aunt to avenge Grandpa and Big Brother!"
Qing Yi looked at Ling Yu coldly. That one look was like a sharp sword piercing one’s heart. It made Ling Yu’s heart shudder, and she did not dare to speak again.
"Young lady, don’t worry," Ling Yihui gaze turned and said flatteringly, "The death of my big brother had nothing to do with them. He asked for that, so I will not bear a grudge against them!"
"Whoever understands the times is wise. I will return and report to His Majesty."
The black robed girl raised the sword in her hand and said coldly, "I take my leave!"
She did not even give Ling Yihui a chance to react when she turned and left. Looking at her departing back, Ling Yihui’s body was covered in cold sweat.
As if she did not understand Ling Yihui’s decision, Ling Yu’s face was a look of despair…
No!
She could not allow Gu Ruoyun and the Luo family to be free and unfettered! If Second Granduncle was not willing to fight for Grandpa, then she would personally enter the palace to meet the concubine. Or else, the concubine, who lived deep inside the palace in a big hall, would never know the happenings of the outside world…
When she thought of this, a dash of cruelty flashed within her eyes.
She thought to herself, "Gu Ruoyun, Luo Yin, just you wait! I, Ling Yu will not let you be free and unfettered! Paying a blood debt with blood is the unalterable principle! You must go repent in hell for this!"
