Chapter 479 Kong Family
Chapter 479 Kong Family
The old man raised his eyelids and said, "Let's just say this. I understand everything that the brothers who walked out together did."
Lin Zhao said, "Why do you think I would agree to your request? You have allowed them to harm so many people over the years."
There was clearly some guilt in the old man's eyes, but he felt guilty about too many things and people, and he had lived too long, so even if he had feelings, they would fade with time.
Only the friendships and memories in which he had risked his life continued to erode his sanity and sense of responsibility as a monk.
"I feel ashamed of the inheritance from that predecessor, but fortunately I finally met you." The old man pointed at the table.
Lin Zhao's hand rose uncontrollably and faced the old man's palm. Pure and powerful spiritual power continuously came from the old man's palm.
This feeling and scene were not unfamiliar to Lin Zhao. She had received spiritual energy from her brother before, but the amount of spiritual energy this time was completely different from that time.
Lin Zhao subconsciously wanted to interrupt the transmission, but the old man held his shoulder with one hand.
"I don't have much time left. Consider this as my reward to you. Please save the children who can still be saved."
Hearing this, Lin Zhao sighed and said, "In this case, I will definitely try my best."
She withdrew her resisting spiritual energy and began to accept the spiritual initiation.

When Cui Qingwan learned that the second elder wanted to see her, she pursed her lips at the heavily made-up girl in the mirror and stood up: "I'm coming."
She took some time before walking into the room. Seeing the man standing beside the bed, she smiled tenderly and said, "Dad, are you looking for me?"
The second elder turned around and looked at her. "Why do I feel that Qingwan is dressed much more plainly than before? Is it because she doesn't have any new jewelry, or does she not like the rouge and powder she used to wear?"
Cui Qingwan took out a handkerchief, rubbed her face and covered her lips, saying, "These things were bought by those stinky men. What kind of taste do they have? Daddy is the same. He also doesn't allow Panlong Tower to recruit some female killers. All the women who came in followed you, so there is not even one person who buys things for me."
The second elder smiled and said lovingly, "When the time comes, Daddy will go out and buy it for you. Are you satisfied with what Daddy bought for you?"
Cui Qingwan pinched her fingers, knowing that the next time the Second Elder went out would be the day of her death. She lowered her eyes to hide the coldness in them, and raised her head, still innocent and naive: "Really? Then the daughter wants the most expensive one!"
The second elder nodded with a smile: "Okay, okay, buy the most expensive one."
Cui Qingwan sat down on the chair in the second elder's room without hesitation: "Dad, what else is there for me?"
The second elder said: "Over the years, I have always thought of your mother. You look more and more like her."
Cui Qingwan pointed at herself and said, "Me? But they all say that I look more like daddy."
The second elder walked to his daughter's side, put his big hand on the top of her head, and stroked her softly and forcefully: "Whether you look like daddy or your mother, you are daddy's most precious daughter. Qingwan knows how daddy has treated you over the years, right?"
Cui Qingwan smiled and said, "Of course, Daddy loves Qingwan the most. He gave all the expensive pills to Qingwan. None of his other brothers and sisters lived to adulthood."
The Second Elder looked at Cui Qingwan, who still didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said, and nodded with satisfaction: "So, no matter what Daddy does in the future, it's all for your consideration, so don't blame Daddy."
Cui Qingwan sneered in her heart: "Of course, Qingwan likes daddy the most."
The second elder patted his daughter on the shoulder and said, "You are so good. Go back. When the election of the tower master is over, Daddy will buy you what you want."
Cui Qingwan walked out of the second elder’s room, thought for a while, and walked towards the third elder’s attic.
Cui Qingwan pushed open the door of the basement of the Three Old Attic and ran to an old woman with silver hair in two steps. "Grandma Medicine, Cui Mingyuan said that he will go out to buy things for me after the election of the tower master. Is he unable to control his desire to eat people?"
The silver-haired old woman was fiddling with the black medicinal herbs in front of her. Hearing this, she looked at Cui Qingwan.
Her eyes were pitch black, as if someone had dug out her eyeballs.
Back then, she was also one of the women who were forcibly abducted by the Second Elder, but she had some skills and was also an alchemist, so Cui Qingwan deliberately acted like a spoiled child and rescued her when others were about to kill her, and hid her in the basement of the Third Elder's attic.
Over the years, Cui Qingwan has been able to avoid being affected by evil spirits and being completely eroded by those elixirs all thanks to this medicine lady.
When Grandma Yao heard what Cui Qingwan said, she nodded and said, "He is going to do something to you, you beast."
Cui Qingwan didn't think it was excessive when she heard her scold her own father like that. "I hope Lin Zhao can take action to deal with them quickly."
Granny Yao asked, "Young lady, do you trust that girl so much?"
Cui Qingwan smiled bitterly and said, "Mother-in-law, please stop calling me Miss. What kind of Miss am I? As for trusting... Apart from her, we can't trust anyone else."
Although Grandma Yao has some cultivation experience, she is blind and relies entirely on the power of her spirit to perceive. She does not have any spiritual tool on her to communicate with the outside world.
Cui Qingwan's cultivation level is low, and the things she has are all obtained after strict control by the two elders.
Grandma Yao thought for a long time, then cut her palm, and the blood from her palm and her spiritual energy gathered into a red jade plate.
"Tell that Lin Zhao that if she fails, she can escape. As long as she can get out, take this to the capital of the Qin Dynasty to find the Kong family. The Kong family will help her wipe out this place."
Cui Qingwan took the jade token and nodded. "Okay."
Three days later.
There was still one day left before the election of the tower master. Cui Qingwan finally found Lin Zhao, who had been missing.
She knew it was too late, but she still found Lin Zhao, gave her the jade token, and explained the situation.
"Grandma Yao? So she is from the Kong family of the Great Qin Dynasty?"
Lin Zhao thought of the woman Kong Hui whom she met in the Qin Dynasty Legion. They both had the surname Kong. Could they be related?
So she used the Tiantong Mirror to record the appearance of the jade token and tried to send it to Kong Hui.
Unexpectedly, the other party replied to her very quickly: "I have an aunt who suddenly disappeared more than a hundred years ago. She is a direct descendant of the Kong family and her status is much higher than mine. The family has been looking for her for many years. This is the aunt's natal jade tablet. Do you know where she is?"
Lin Zhao replied with a "yes", and then briefly described the situation on her side. Of course, she omitted her relationship with the Zuhuang plane and the real reason for meeting Lin Yi. She only said that she was indeed Lin Yi's sister. Then, after finding her brother through the information given by Kong Hui, she followed her brother into the Panlong Tower and discovered the strangeness here.
Kong Hui was also quick. She immediately asked her for the location and passed the message back to the Kong family.
Even though the Kong family was not as good as the Duanye family in the Qin Dynasty, it was still a first-rate family, and they were fully capable of producing two or three cultivators in the fusion stage.
