The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 65 Ready to go
The gathering ended hastily. After Li Hao and twenty or thirty other powerful and influential figures from Sunset City signed a petition, they all left one after another.

The group agreed to meet again in ten days. Sun Yuyang promised to investigate the truth behind Sun Yunshan's death within ten days and bring Ruan Xinrou to justice.

Ruan Xinrou was not to be outdone and confronted Sun Yuyang head-on, publicly swearing a blood oath.

If the truth cannot be found, Sun Yuyang will be expelled from the family under the pretext of "insubordination and filial impiety"!

"Our Sun family... things are about to change!"

"Shh, keep your voice down, just do your job!"

At the entrance to the main hall, two sixth-rank guards whispered among themselves, their eyes flickering with suspicion.

The moment their young lady "woke up," she caused such a commotion. Anyone could see that something big was about to happen in the Sun family.

"One must be law-abiding and honest, otherwise one will only bring trouble upon oneself. That's all I have to say!" Suddenly, an emotionless voice rang in the ears of the two guards.

Then, the group filed out, glanced at the two of them indifferently, and strode away.

"Thank you, Mr. Li, for the advice!" The two men felt a chill run down their spines and their hearts trembled.

Once Li Hao and the others had disappeared from sight, the two straightened up and stared straight ahead with serious expressions, as if they had never been distracted.

Just then, the second group of people came out, and the two guards trembled at the sound of their angry voices.

A slight sense of lingering fear washed over him: "Luckily, it was Li Fuhao and the others who came out first!"

"Hmph, that brat Sun Yuyang is a real scoundrel, daring to embarrass me in public! Just wait, in ten days, I'll make sure she loses all face!"

"Godmother, Yu Yang was just confused for a moment. Don't take it to heart. Once she's figured things out, she'll come to apologize to you!"

A handsome man walked alongside a beautiful woman who was filled with resentment, trying to persuade her as they went, but she seemed not to listen at all.

"Hmph! Zhang Yi, you're just being protective of her. Don't try that on me, I'm not buying it!"

Ruan Xinrou felt a surge of anger. She stopped and stood outside the lobby door, angrily berating the man who had apologized on behalf of Sun Yuyang.

Not far from the two were the two sixth-rank guards who were listening with trepidation.

"Sigh!" Zhang Yi sighed softly. He knew that Ruan Xinrou would not let this matter rest.

"Slap!" Two loud slaps shocked the group of people behind him.

However, Ruan Xinrou had nowhere to vent her anger, and after looking around, she spotted two guards.

He strode over and slapped the two who realized something was wrong across the face.

"Madam Ruan, please calm down!" The two guards were stunned by the burning pain on both sides of their faces.

Despite feeling deeply wronged, he dared not be negligent in the slightest and quickly knelt down to apologize.

"What are you two looking at? Is it that funny? If this happens again, I won't let you off the hook!"

After saying this, Ruan Xinrou and her maidservant turned and left. After taking two steps, a breeze blew in her face, and she took a deep breath, thoroughly enjoying it.

I feel incredibly happy!

Upon noticing the slight numbness in her hand, she muttered to herself, "Next time I need to vent my anger, I guess I'll have to find someone with delicate skin!"

Upon hearing this, the two maids beside him shivered, their delicate bodies stiffening slightly, but they dared not show it.

The two aggrieved guards had no idea that before they even complained about the unexpected disaster, the other party was actually complaining that they were too thick-skinned!
"You two go to the accounting office and collect fifty taels of silver. It's up to you whether you stay or leave." Zhang Yi sighed, and the stunned crowd finally came to their senses and thoughtfully followed him away.

"Thank you, son-in-law!" The two guards were extremely grateful, clasped their hands in thanks to the departing figure, and immediately left. Who the hell wouldn't dare stay here?

*****
After everyone left, the hall was empty except for Feng Ling, Leng Ningshuang, Sun Yuyang, and Qi Cheng and his fellow disciples, a total of seven people.

"Miss Sun! Let's begin." Feng Ling and the others exchanged glances with Sun Yuyang, and with a nod from the group, seven layers of ghostly and divine power spread out, forming a thick soundproof wall that enveloped the entire hall.

"Nine Revolutions...!?"

"He advanced..." Wang Tao and the others stared at the extraordinary man in shock and anger, momentarily stunned.

Even Qi Cheng frowned subconsciously after sensing that aura that was no less powerful than his own.

Judging from their several encounters, Feng Ling was only a mid-level seventh-rank Ghost Spirit Master in the eyes of Wang Tao and his group, whose combat strength was at most comparable to that of an eighth-rank Ghost Spirit Master.

Unexpectedly, the other party has now reached the ninth level, which is unprecedented!
"Everyone! First of all, Yu Yang is very grateful that you are on my side; secondly, although we failed to bring down Ruan Xinrou today, which is a real pity, the mastermind behind the scenes must have received the news. As long as we can lure him out, my plan will be more than half successful!"

Sun Yuyang's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he glanced at Feng Ling and the others before slowly analyzing the gains and losses of the day.

Everyone was slightly startled, clearly not expecting that Sun Yuyang had such a scheme in mind; his cunning was truly profound.

On second thought, that makes sense.

A woman who can endure humiliation and feign madness for half a month is no ordinary person.

"Miss Sun, judging from your tone, you want us to join forces with that bastard Feng Ling?" Wang Tao's eyes flashed coldly as he questioned in a deep voice.

Although she was even more wary of Feng Ling, her hatred only grew stronger, and she clearly couldn't bear to see him have an easy time.

In fact, if it weren't for Qi Cheng's sake, Wang Tao wouldn't have bothered with this matter.

Sun Yuyang stared at the arrogant Wang Tao, frowned slightly, and thought to herself, "Anyway, this guy is dispensable to me, so I might as well exclude him early on to avoid him letting me down at a crucial moment!"

Just as Sun Yuyang was about to tell him to leave, Qi Cheng spoke first, angrily rebuking, "Wang Tao, shut up! Are you trying to go against your senior brother? This is not the time to discuss personal grudges!"

"Second Senior Brother! Have you forgotten what Master told you when you went down the mountain?" Wang Tao was furious and cursed Qi Cheng for valuing women over loyalty. He then brought up Elder Luo Bin to make an example of him.

"Hmph! I'll explain things to my master when we get back. You better behave yourself now, or I'll hold you responsible if anything goes wrong!" Qi Cheng snorted coldly, inwardly cursing Wang Tao for his reckless courage and lack of strategy.

"Idiot! Do you think you can beat them right now? Let's pretend to form an alliance first, then wait for the right opportunity!" Wang Tao's face flushed red as he prepared to speak again, but Qi Cheng quickly sent a secret message to the others to calm him down.

"Hmm?" As soon as the voice transmission came out, Li Si and Hu Mei'er both suddenly realized what was going on, and their tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

"Alright! With Second Senior Brother's words, Wang Tao will put public affairs before private matters and obey Miss Yu Yang's orders!" Wang Tao was taken aback, but remained outwardly calm.

To avoid arousing Feng Ling's suspicion, he even feigned provocation, saying, "Hmph! We'll settle our score later. You just need to make sure you wash your neck clean then!"

"I'll play along to the end!" Feng Ling's eyes flashed with disdain, his words neither warm nor cold. After a few thoughts raced through his mind, he had already discerned that the others were hiding something, but he wasn't worried at all.

"Alright! The most urgent task is to send a message to the Jade Purity Sect, but who would be the most suitable person to send it?"

Sun Yuyang frowned in thought, looking quite annoyed. Her power in the Sun family had already been usurped by Ruan Xinrou and others; although they were her own people, it was laughable that she couldn't use them!
"Leave it to me! I have a long-standing friendship with Madam Xu. I think it shouldn't be a problem for her to dispatch an excellent messenger."

After a moment's thought, Sun Yuyang's eyes lit up, and he immediately handed the joint letter to her.

Feng Ling remained silent, pondering to himself: If Senior Sister doesn't do me a favor, this S-level Purple Gold VIP card might come in handy!
Then a thought struck him, and he remembered the two maids from before. So, he raised an eyebrow and said calmly, "Eliminating internal troubles is also urgent!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Yuyang raised an eyebrow: "Having a treacherous dog by your side is ultimately a source of trouble. It's time to make an example of him to deter others!"

She naturally knew what Feng Ling meant, and with a determined heart, she made her decision.

Not long after everyone had left, a shocking piece of news spread like wildfire throughout the entire Sun residence…

Chunyin, Sun Yuyang's personal maid who grew up with him since childhood, committed suicide by poisoning herself in her boudoir. It is said that she bled from all seven orifices and her face was unrecognizable when she died!
"Hiss! What about Xiao Tao? Miss Yu Yang didn't do anything to her, did she?"

"Xiao Tao? Oh, she seems to be grieving and collecting Chun Yin's body..."

"Oh, that's good...!"

"Hey buddy, why are you asking this?"

"Uh, excuse me, then it's my wife!"

"Tch, look at how smug you are!"

In a long corridor of the Sun residence, two young guards on patrol whispered to each other as they walked away.

"Senior sister, this matter of delivering the letter might bring someone to their death. Aren't you afraid that the person behind it will come after the Miaoyin Pavilion?"

As Feng Ling and Leng Ningshuang walked along the bustling street, the man chuckled softly.

"The Myriad Sounds Pavilion has an extraordinary background. It can be said that it is the most mysterious force in the entire Eastern Sacred Continent. Who do you think would dare to go and provoke it?"

Leng Ningshuang didn't care about Feng Ling's little thoughts at all, and seriously explained to him the meaning of the three words "Miaoyin Pavilion".

“Eastern Sacred Continent…it’s that regional term again.” Feng Ling pondered to himself. He hadn’t expected Leng Ning Shuang to know about this as well; she probably saw it in the library of the Jade Purity Sect.

Thinking this way, Feng Ling didn't pay too much attention... The two of them quietly shut their mouths and walked slowly towards the direction of Miaoyin Pavilion.

*****
Night fell once more, and an eerie sunset once again hung high in the sky...

In a secluded courtyard of the Sun family mansion, a mysterious figure shrouded in the afterglow of the setting sun appeared.

"Greetings, Godfather!" Upon seeing the man and woman, who were leisurely drinking tea, suddenly appear, completely covered in black robes, they immediately stood up and knelt down respectfully.

Judging from their expressions, they didn't seem to care at all about the death of their informant, Chunyin.

"Alright, no need for formalities!" An old, emotionless voice came from within the black robe. With a slight wave of his withered old hand hidden in the sleeve, a strange, gloomy wind easily lifted the two of them up.

"What brings you here, Godfather?" The beautiful woman and the handsome man asked as they served tea to the man in black.

"We've received word from above that the plan has changed and we'll be moving out ahead of schedule!" Taking a sip of warm tea, the man in black robes put down his cup and said in a deep voice, "You need to hurry and find that thing as soon as possible!"

"We've turned the Sun residence upside down, searched every nook and cranny, but we still can't find a trace of him. What should we do?" The man's eyes flashed with anxiety as he frowned.

"Hmph! Godfather, don't listen to his nonsense. Sun Yuyang didn't search carefully at all. It's obvious that he deliberately let us through!" The beautiful woman glanced at the man and said angrily without any mercy.

"Yi'er, is this true?"

The man in black robes turned his head to stare at the handsome man, a few barely perceptible glints of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"Godfather, I..." The man stammered, unsure how to explain.

"Alright! It's understandable to be mindful of past relationships, but don't forget who killed your master and wiped out your entire family! Can you really accept your enemy's daughter in front of your master's spirit in heaven without any guilt?" The man in black robes looked at him with disappointment and raised his voice, his tone filled with grief, sighs, and rebuke.

"I'm sorry, Godfather! I know I was wrong. From now on, I will never be lenient again!" A painful struggle flashed in the man's bloodshot eyes as he made a final promise to the man in black.

"Godfather, he's fallen for Leng Ning Shuang!" The beautiful woman said in a coquettish voice, shaking her black-robed arm. Like a jinx, she was always trying to expose other people's dirty secrets.

"Pfft..." The black-robed man, who had just calmed down, suddenly spat out a mouthful of tea that was about to reach his lips. He stood up angrily, pointed at his nose, and cursed, "You bastard! This woman is no ordinary person. You must not lay a finger on her!"

"Uh..." The man was stunned by the scolding, inwardly groaning.

Heart of beauty in everyone!
I just had a vague idea about it, but I never actually thought about taking any action...

"It's all Xinrou's fault for being so talkative!" Zhang Yi sighed inwardly, kneeling on the ground and silently enduring endless anger, letting the black-robed man curse him...a torrent of abuse!

"Thump!" After an unknown amount of time, the man in black robes seemed to have finished cursing. He plopped down on the stone bench in front of him, caught his breath, and then called out to the man.

The three then gathered together to discuss their next move.
