Chapter 1700: Learn His Past

"Did you hear what your husband said earlier, Sister Ming?" Liao Shuzhen asked, watching Ling Yun and Ling Xi fly away.

Sheng Ming nodded slightly. "Do you think I don’t know about it? From the start, we already knew that my husband loved Yi Mingxia and Ling Xi the most."

"Does that mean he doesn’t love you and his other wives?" Bai Xuanyue frowned.

"You’re wrong about that, Xuanyue." Liao Shuzhen and Bai Xuanyue looked at Sheng Ming with puzzled looks. "My husband loves me and his other wives, but we will never have the same position as Yi Mingxia and Ling Xi in his heart. Yi Mingxia was his mother, and she went through many hardships raising him by herself. While raising him, she was frequently sick and on the verge of death. Ling Xi saved him from death, and she gave him a great opportunity to change his future by teaching him to become a cultivator, including giving him Long Hun’s bloodline."

"Where is his father? Why did his mother raise him by herself?"

"His father had an affair with another woman, so Yi Mingxia divorced him. Sometime after she left him, she found herself pregnant." Liao Shuzhen and Bai Xuanyue didn’t know what divorce meant because they weren’t used to the lives of mortals. "She was afraid that her ex-husband would steal her son from her, so she went far away to raise him. When he grew up, she fell into critical condition and nearly died, forcing him to work as a male prostitute."

"A male prostitute?"

Sheng Ming nodded. "In the past, he had ten female clients, but those women were not cheap women."

"Humph! Only cheap women would use the services of a male prostitute." Bai Xuanyue coldly snorted.

"Haha!" Sheng Ming laughed. "You’re wrong about them, Xuanyue. They’re not cheap women, and they’ve never been with any other men besides their ex-husbands and our current husband."

"I don’t believe that." Bai Xuanyue shook her head.

Sheng Ming sighed before telling the two female immortals about Ling Yun’s past relationships with Su Fei, Zhao Yao, Tang Zhiyi, Liu Qiyue, Ying Zi, Zhang Xingcai, Wen Qing, Yang Xiaoyi, Nangong Ying’er, and Catherine. "Do you still think they’re cheap women? They chose to be with him for various reasons, and they haven’t had relationships with other men since being with him. After he became a cultivator, he brought them with him. Only Nangong Ying’er and Catherine met a terrible end out of the ten of them."

"What did Ling Yun do to those two women?"

"He crippled Nangong Ying’er’s cultivation and sent her to a brothel after she and her sect members did many things to his two women, Zhang Xingcai and Situ Luan." Liao Shuzhen and Bai Xuanyue never expected Ling Yun to do such a thing to one of his women in the past. "That woman died before she served another man in the brothel, and Chaos did something unbelievable to her."

"What did Chaos do to her?"

"Chaos moved her soul into a dead woman’s body, and she lives as that woman now." Liao Shuzhen and Bai Xuanyue were shocked when they heard that. "The woman named Nangong Ying’er in our residence is that woman."

"Huh? Is she really that woman?" Bai Xuanyue had already met Nangong Ying’er before, and Sheng Ming’s words shocked her.

Sheng Ming nodded. "That woman is really Nangong Ying’er, Xuanyue."

"Did Chaos transfer her soul into that woman’s body because they have the same name?"

Sheng Ming shook her head. "I don’t know Chaos’s reasons for doing that, but her soul is that Nangong Ying’er, and she is the owner of the Thousand Flower Body."

"Then, what about Catherine?"

Sheng Ming told the two female immortals about Ling Yun’s past relationship with that woman. "My husband had warned her several times, but she didn’t listen to him. She tried to abuse his other wives, so he turned her into a necro devil. Although he took her with him, her status was far different from his other wives, and she was no different from his slave from then on."

"I didn’t expect that your husband could turn people into devils and demons, Sister Ming." Liao Shuzhen felt sorry for Catherine, even though she had never met her before.

"Hehe," Sheng Ming chuckled. "My husband looks relaxed and easygoing, but he will be cruel if people dare touch one of his wives. Since you two don’t live in the tower, you guys probably haven’t heard about his actions on the 90th floor."

"What was he doing at that time, Sister Ming?" Sheng Ming created a qi screen that showed the incident on the 90th floor of the mysterious tower several years ago when Ling Yun killed Feng Tian and those male phoenixes. "He’s insane! Why did he kill those phoenixes? Doesn’t he know that their numbers are very few in this universe?"

"That incident was Feng Tian’s fault, Xuanyue." Sheng Ming herself still regretted what happened back then. "He committed suicide and took Feng Bing’er with him. At that time, she had only been my husband’s wife for a few days, but she died because of her ex-husband’s jealousy. They would have died if Huang Lingzhu had not reversed the time, allowing them to go through their rebirth process."

"Why didn’t Sister Lingzhu stop him from killing those phoenixes?"

"Huang Lingzhu stopped him?" Sheng Ming sneered, confusing the two female immortals. "In fact, Feng Bing’er’s death back then was part of her plan to lead my husband into darkness, and she wanted to use him to purge the population of this universe. That’s why my husband hated her so much, especially after all the terrible things she did because of her selfishness."

"Why would Sister Lingzhu do such a thing?" Sheng Ming explained some things to them about Huang Lingzhu’s past plans for Ling Yun. "I didn’t expect that she would do such things."

Liao Shuzhen sighed. "Sister Lingzhu is the first primordial, and no one can understand her thoughts. She may have done all that for the sake of that universe, but her plans are disastrous. If Ling Yun falls into darkness, countless people will die at his hands, and the population of this universe will probably be reduced by more than half."

"Fortunately, my husband was aware of Huang Lingzhu’s plans, and he tricked her by pretending to fall into darkness." Liao Shuzhen and Bai Xuanyue found it hard to believe. "My husband was in the process of fusing with Long Hun’s bone marrow at the time, and she should have been able to accelerate the process with her time element, but she didn’t do it and let him go through the process longer. When Feng Bing’er died, he could feel her death, and he suspected that woman had known everything from the start. In the end, he pretended to fall into darkness, killed those phoenixes to take revenge for the death of his wife, and also tricked her."

Liao Shuzhen sighed again. "I don’t understand why Sister Lingzhu had to do all that, but the universe is fortunate that Ling Yun didn’t fall into darkness. If he had fallen into darkness back then, he would have committed mass murder."

"That’s true." Bai Xuanyue nodded in agreement. "Sister Lingzhu’s actions back then were too excessive. I know that she loves this universe, but she shouldn’t have thought about purging its population."

"Forget it, it all happened, and we can’t do anything to change it," Sheng Ming sighed. "Fortunately, my husband didn’t fall into darkness back then, and the incident at that time changed his mindset. For now, he’s fully focused on preparing himself to face the Chaos in the future, and we will help him with that."

"So, what about Qinzhi’s fate?"

"Haha," Sheng Ming laughed. "Do you believe me that Qinzhi will fall into my husband’s arms soon?"

"How—"

"Currently, her soul is a dual soul cultivating with my husband in his soul space." Liao Shuzhen and Bai Xuanyue’s jaws dropped after Sheng Ming said that. "Even though it’s only a tiny bit of her soul, their activities also affect her body. I’ve experienced it myself, so I dare say with certainty that she will fall into his arms soon."

Liao Shuzhen and Bai Xuanyue smiled amusedly as they imagined Dongfang Qinzhi’s situation, and her previous reaction convinced them that Sheng Ming’s words were true.

"As I said before, Qinzhi may regret the situation now, but she will accept my husband soon, and she will understand many things after that," Sheng Ming said confidently. "Alright, I have to return to my room now to accompany my daughter, and you two can do whatever you want."

Bai Xuanyue turned to Liao Shuzhen. "Do you think Qinzhi will accept Ling Yun and become his wife?"

"Qinzhi has no other choice, right? Her soul is tied to Ling Yun’s, and they are currently dual soul cultivating in his soul space, so I believe she will fall for him soon." Liao Shuzhen fell into deep thought. "I thought about returning to my private place, but I already promised to train him and all his wives, so I won’t go back on my word."

Bai Xuanyue nodded slightly. "We already know the situation, so we should keep our distance from Ling Yun when we’re not training him; otherwise, Grandpa Hun will do something to us without our knowledge, and we’ll suffer the same fate as Qinzhi."

"Let’s go back."

After he brought Shuang Yuzhu and Shuang Meixue back to their room, Ling Yun summoned all the female beasts to accompany him in training, and they sparred for several days without stopping.

Bai Xuanyue and Liao Shuzhen also joined them, but the two women kept their distance from Ling Yun because they were afraid that Long Hun would do something to them without them knowing.
