Indeed, in his eyes, Ling Xiao City was only a small place. In fact, the Yuan Territory that the Soaring Cloud Empire resided in was nothing more than a wasteland in his eyes.

It was not only him. In the eyes of the people from the other regions, the Yuan Territory was just like this. After all, the Yuan Territory was the weakest among the eighty-one human regions.

"The Lone Sword of Heaven is renowned throughout the world. This prince can still trust it." Lingyun laughed and did not directly answer Ning Tianya's question. He laughed loudly and said, "If you want to expel the demonic energy, come find me at the Violet Bamboo Manor tomorrow morning!"

With that, he walked away with Meng Meng in his arms. Behind him, Ning Tianya hesitated for a moment before shakily following.

Inside the spirit hall of the War King's manor, Ling Yun looked at the spirit tablet on the ground, as well as the incense burner. His face was ashen, his fists clenched tightly. The anger in his heart was clearly felt by Ning Tianya and Yan Lu behind him. They wisely shut their mouths without saying anything.

Lingyun was very angry in his heart, although he already knew that his mother did not die, this spirit tablet was only a cover. However, he had worshiped her for so many years, just like his mother.

"Meow ~"

With a wail, she saw that the situation was not looking good. She knew that the little dragon cat who had stirred up a huge disaster was trying to escape. However, just as he moved, he was ruthlessly thrown out of the mourning hall by Ling Yun, and onto the ground.

Ling Yun walked towards the fallen Xiao Xiaolong step by step, his face ice-cold. The two people behind him shivered; they had never seen such an enraged Ling Yun before. The way he looked was too terrifying.

"Mengmeng!" A delicate voice rang out from outside the mourning hall. Immediately afterwards, the sound of footsteps could be heard as Qin Yinyue, dressed in a light green dress, and Murong Xiaoxiao, dressed in palace attire appeared in their line of sight. Qin Yinyue ran to the side of the kitten, bent down, and gently hugged Mengmeng.

The little Dragon Cat laid in Qin Yinyue's arms, feeling wronged. Its eyes were filled with tears. At this moment, not to mention Qin Yinyue, even Murong Xiaoxiao's heart had softened.

"How can you be so cruel to an adorable girl? How did it provoke you?" Looking at Ling Yun, he gritted his teeth and spoke with a dangerous glint in his eyes. Then, he lowered his head to caress Mengmeng and said gently, "Be good, and follow your sister in the future. I want to see who dares to bully you in the future!"

"Yun'er, wasn't Meng Meng just hungry? Go find something to eat. If you don't know the way, and cause chaos in the palace, then why did you have to be so merciless to her!?" If there's no one in the Battle King's Mansion, then tell Aunty that I'll get the servants of the Duke of Qin's household to help clean up the mess. " Murong Xiaoxiao also scolded.

Early in the morning, she was dragged by Qin Yinyue to the Battle King Manor. Halfway there, they heard that the Battle King Manor had been ruined by a little kitten of unknown origins. The two hurriedly rushed over, and happened to see the scene where Lingyun threw Mengmeng out.

She could not help but feel disappointment in her heart towards Ling Yun. Could it be that after he grew up, he had completely changed, and was no longer that kind-hearted kid he was when he was young? If he could be so ruthless towards such a cute little cat, then wouldn't he be even more ruthless towards Qin Yinyue in the future?

Seeing the disappointed look on Murong Xiaoxiao's face, how could Lingyun not know what she was thinking? He could only bitterly smile in his heart. It seemed that he had been completely wronged.

"You guys take a look at what good deed it has done." Lingyun resisted the urge to anger the two and walked back into the mourning hall.

"Humph!" Qin Yinyue gave a charming snort and glared at Lingyun. She carried Mengmeng and followed behind them. Murong Xiaoxiao also entered the room. She suddenly had a bad premonition and wondered if she had misunderstood Lingyun.

"AHH!" The first person to enter, Qin Yinyue, cried out in alarm. She abruptly loosened her hand and covered her mouth as she blankly stared at the spiritual altar.

Mengmeng did not expect Qin Yinyue to suddenly let go of her hand. She immediately dropped to the ground and mewled in grievance. However, Qin Yinyue did not care about it. She only had one thought in her mind. No wonder Big Brother Ling Yun was so angry. That look in his eyes was as if he wanted to kill someone.

Murong Xiaoxiao, who was closely following behind Qin Yinyue, heard her cry. She looked in the direction of Qin Yinyue's gaze, and her red lips also slightly parted. No wonder …

Lingyun glanced at Mengmeng, who was grabbing Qin Yinyue's skirt with her little claws. Mengmeng immediately shrank back and looked at Lingyun with her teary eyes.

Ling Yun did not look at it anymore. He looked at Qin Yinyue and Murong Xiaoxiao, and said calmly, "Did you see that? This is its masterpiece. "

Ling Yun's indifferent voice caused Qin Yinyue and Murong Xiaoxiao to wake up. The mother and daughter pair looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

"Sigh!" Qin Yinyue looked regretfully at Mengmeng, who was grabbing onto her skirt as if she could find a sense of security here. She sighed and could not bear to look at it again.

This time, even if Ling Yun loved her again, he would definitely not let his go just because she begged for mercy. After all, what Meng Meng did had offended Lingyun.

Murong Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly, and said apologetically to Ling Yun, "Yun'er, it was aunty who misunderstood you."

Lingyun lightly shook his head, and looked towards Xiaolong Cat. Seeing Lingyun looking at it again, Xiao Xiaolong's little body suddenly trembled. He looked pitifully at Ling Yun, and seeing that Ling Yun was unmoved, he raised his head to look at Qin Yinyue and Murong Xiaoxiao. His eyes were full of pleading, and the two of them immediately turned away, not daring to look at him.

"Meow, meow ~"

Seeing this, the little dragon cat said two words. Her teary eyes made people want to love her. However, because of what it had done, it didn't plead for it. There was only a trace of pity in its heart.

Zi Luo also remained silent within the ring. He felt a bit regretful, but his beautiful eyes were filled with unwillingness. Could it be that the last dragon cat on the continent was finished just like that?

After a while, she let go of the corner of Qin Yinyue's skirt and slowly crawled towards him. As she climbed, she paid attention to Ling Yun's expression. It had only travelled a few meters, yet it had climbed for a few minutes.

Little claws lightly tugged at the corner of Ling Yun's clothes, his eyes full of fawning.

Lingyun sighed in his heart, and the old Dragon Cat's pleading gaze appeared in his mind.

That kind of gaze was like a humiliation to a Stage Seven Demon Emperor, the incomparably arrogant Dragon Cat in his heart. However, for the sake of the continuation of his bloodline, for the sake of his child, he didn't hesitate to reveal it.

He slowly extended his palm. Seeing this, the little cat closed its eyes in despair, waiting for the palm to fall down and end its short life.

However, he did not feel any pain for a long time. He could not help but open his eyes and look at Ling Yun with some doubt.

"What? You want to die?" Ling Yun's voice was indifferent, and did not have the usual gentleness. His palm stopped above Xiao Long Cat's head.

The little dragon cat shook its head, its eyes shining with hope.

"For your father's sake, I'll let you go this time. If there is a next time, even if I break my promise to your father, I will still kill you with my palm." Ling Yun said indifferently, as he slowly retracted his palm.

Qin Yinyue, Murong Xiaoxiao, and Ning Tianya heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. They couldn't bear to see such a cute little thing leave with their own eyes.

Upon hearing Ling Yun say that he wouldn't kill it, Xiao Long's eyes were filled with gratitude. He was very intelligent, and seeing the expressions on Qin Yinyue and the rest, he naturally knew what he had done wrong.

Hearing Lingyun mention its father, its eyes revealed sorrow.

"Go reflect on it!" Lingyun glanced at the little dragon cat, and the picture on his hand flashed. In the next moment, the little dragon cat disappeared from where he was.

"Equality Contract?" Ning Tianya and Murong Xiaoxiao were a little surprised. That kitten was actually Lingyun's contracted demonic beast, and it had even signed a contract for equality.

"Yun'er, are you crazy?" At first, she had wanted to wait until Lingyun's body had reached the second transition before she personally caught a Rank 3 Fey King as a contract demon beast to protect Lingyun. She did not expect this brat to take in such a cute little kitten as a contract demon beast.

A contract demon beast was different from a beast taming one. A person could only sign an equality contract once in a lifetime, not even if the contract was cancelled in the future.

In this way, could it really be as Qin Yang had said, that these elders would protect them for the rest of their lives?

Lingyun, of course, knew what Murong Xiaoxiao was referring to. She rubbed her nose in embarrassment and smiled bitterly. She lowered her head, not daring to speak. He couldn't possibly say whether it was Mengmeng or the Dragon Cat! Even if she had, Murong Xiaoxiao might not have believed her.

Seeing Ling Yun's current state, Murong Xiaoxiao could no longer bear to blame him. She helplessly shook her head. Looking at the fallen spirit tablet, Xiao Yan wanted to say something but hesitated. He sighed in his heart.

Lingyun did not notice the change in Murong Xiaoxiao's expression. Walking forward, he gently straightened the spirit tablet and took the handkerchief from Qin Yinyue's hand. He carefully wiped off the ashes of the cigarette on the spirit tablet and gently placed it back in its original position.

He then took out three sticks of incense and lit it in front of the censer in front of the spirit tablet. He then knelt on the bed and kowtowed three times respectfully.

Ning Tianya's shrivelled lips slightly curled. Lingyun had always been asking about his mother, and this incident just now had occurred. He already had a guess in his heart. Lingyun knew that his mother did not die, and the so-called difficult delivery was a lie, but this little guy still did things like burning incense so naturally.

Yan Lu did not think too much about it. He only thought that Lingyun was thinking about his mother's identity, and where she was buried after she died.

After respectfully offering incense, Ling Yun stood up and looked at the spirit tablet. On it were only the words "Battle King Queen's spirit tablet", and there wasn't even a name. He slightly narrowed his eyes and a trace of coldness flashed through them. He clenched his fists and whispered in his heart, "Mother, don't worry. In a few years, our family will be reunited."
