Chapter 1526 - 1525: The Marriage Alliance

Chapter 1526: Chapter 1525: The Marriage Alliance

When Ling Chen suddenly thought of it just now, he suspected that the person from Xing Family being married might be Liu Xiling. Unexpectedly, when he asked, this was indeed the case!

"These people from Liu Family really have the audacity of a dog!"

An astonishing murderous intent erupted from Ling Chen’s body, instantly filling the entire room, shocking everyone else; Xuan Yu and Miaoyin were so frightened that their chopsticks fell to the ground, clearly greatly intimidated by this murderous aura.

"Little friend Ling Chen, what’s wrong?"

Mei Fangzhi was secretly shocked. Ling Chen was fine just now, why would he suddenly erupt in such fury?

Hong Ye was equally surprised. She had never seen Ling Chen lose his composure like this. Even when faced with the strongest enemies and greatest difficulties in the past, Ling Chen had never been this angry.

Just now, when Mei Fangzhi mentioned Liu Xiling’s name, Ling Chen suddenly changed as if he became a different person. It seems this name has a significant connection to Ling Chen.

"Master Mei, I’m afraid I can’t continue drinking and chatting with you."

Ling Chen stood up from his seat, cupped his fist towards Mei Fangzhi, then turned and walked out.

"Little friend Ling Chen, what exactly happened?"

Mei Fangzhi quickly stood up, looking very puzzled.

"The Liu Family’s Liu Xiling is someone very important to me. I absolutely cannot let this wedding proceed smoothly."

How could Ling Chen allow Liu Xiling to be forced to marry someone else, especially when his father Ling Tianyu hadn’t appeared?

"You want to stop this marriage alliance?"

Mei Fangzhi was taken aback. The marriage alliance between these two super families has the approval of Empress Yunyao, and it must have the consent of the high ranks of Xing Family and Liu Family to proceed. For Ling Chen to want to stop the alliance is to go against two super families.

Moreover, this is defying the Holy Command of Empress Yunyao.

This is too dangerous.

"Master Mei, rest assured, I know my limits."

Ling Chen shook his head. No matter if it’s a mountain of blades or a sea of flames, he must go to Liu Family, and no one will stop his resolve!

"Today’s wine will be drunk another day. Until we meet again!"

Ling Chen didn’t say much more. After bidding farewell to Mei Fangzhi, he suddenly waved his hand, and a giant flying sword condensed in front of him. Ling Chen then stepped onto the sword and left Hanmei Villa with Hong Ye, disappearing into the sky.

Watching Ling Chen’s hurried departure, Mei Fangzhi sighed again. He actually worried for Ling Chen. If the latter truly intends to stop the marriage between these two super families, it would be as difficult as crossing an abyss. A slight misstep could lead to a burial ground-less death.

Despite Ling Chen’s terrifying power, his fame has already shaken the Nine Provinces, yet this journey will still be fraught with danger.

"Master, Ling Chen is a top talent with the hidden sect Lingyue Island backing him. Didn’t he cause the Ling Family to be turned upside down last time, but everything turned out fine? This time, isn’t it unlikely to be life-threatening?"

Behind Mei Fangzhi, Xuan Yu asked with a hint of doubt on her pretty face.

"This time is different from last time."

Mei Fangzhi shook his head, "Last time Ling Chen made a big scene in Ling Family, it seemed as if he single-handedly defeated Ling Family. In reality, it was not so. Because Empress Yunyao protected him, Ling Family was helpless against him, allowing him to escape safely."

"But this time, Empress Yunyao has issued an edict, agreeing to the marriage between Xing Family and Liu Family. If Ling Chen tries to stop it, it would be an act of defiance, and Empress Yunyao will not only not protect him but also stand in opposition to him."

"Then this time it’s really going to be difficult."

Xuan Yu nodded, knowing Empress Yunyao is a person whose power is unrivaled, with unquestionable strength and authority. Once an edict is issued, it cannot be retracted. Although Ling Chen is a disciple of Lingyue Island, the Sect World of Nine Provinces does not usually interfere with the affairs of the Central Dynasty. This background won’t significantly aid Ling Chen in stopping the marriage alliance.

"I remember Empress Yunyao used to value Ling Chen highly?" Xuan Yu looked surprised. "Doesn’t she know the relationship between Liu Xiling and Ling Chen yet agreed to the marriage alliance between the two families?"

"That, I don’t know."

Mei Fangzhi was also puzzled. Indeed, in the past, for Empress Yunyao to value Ling Chen so highly, she would never do anything detrimental to Ling Chen. But now she did just that. Could it be that Ling Chen somehow offended Her Majesty the Empress?

"Sigh, I hope little friend Ling Chen can turn dangers into safety."

Mei Fangzhi sighed again. Such matters are beyond what someone like him can meddle in. He can only silently pray, hoping Ling Chen will pass this difficult obstacle safely.

At this time, on the swiftly flying sword, Ling Chen and Hong Ye’s figures could be clearly seen.

"Young master, who exactly is Liu Xiling to you?"

Hong Ye couldn’t hold back her curiosity and looked towards Ling Chen.

Could someone Ling Chen cares about be his beloved?

"She is my biological mother."

Ling Chen did not hide it and spoke calmly.

"She is your mother, young master?"

Hong Ye was stunned. She had imagined many possibilities but never thought Ling Chen and Liu Xiling were mother and son.

"My father?"

Ling Chen’s eyes initially narrowed, and then he shook his head, "He’s been missing for a long time, with no news."

"Then maybe he’ll appear this time."

Hong Ye continued, "After all, it’s his wife. If your father is still in this world, he shouldn’t sit idly by."

Hearing this, Ling Chen’s eyes brightened. Hong Ye’s words indeed made sense. Just as he would risk his life for Xu Ruoyan or Xia Yunxin, Ling Tianyu and Liu Xiling’s two-decade-long marriage should have deep emotions. Even if he were Ling Tianyu, he absolutely wouldn’t allow his wife to marry someone else. He would take action no matter what, determined to stop the marriage alliance between Xing Family and Liu Family!

Therefore, it’s very likely his father Ling Tianyu will appear this time!

"Perhaps, this opportunity will allow me to reunite with my father."

Ling Chen’s eyes sparkled. Previously, Liu Xiling also said, Ling Tianyu wasn’t dead. With Shentu Yan’s ability, he couldn’t possibly kill Ling Tianyu. However, Ling Chen didn’t know why Ling Tianyu had been missing for so long. Maybe there was some compelling reason he couldn’t show himself. But this time, surely he would have to appear!
