However, at this time, the Limitless Heaven shouted, "Have you looked at the place indicated on the map?"

When Shi Ling heard this, he paused for a moment. Without turning his head, he said, "If I have the time, I will go and take a look."

As he said this, Shi Ling came to the place where he had entered previously. Then, a golden light appeared on his spatial ring and wrapped around his body, before he dashed out with him. As Limitless Heaven watched Shi Ling's back as he left, he could tell that Shi Ling had become a little angry.

With his hands behind his back, Limitless Heaven raised his head and looked at the pitch black dungeon, recalling a young man. He shouted at him: "Even without the Buddha Prison Mountain Palm, I can still become a powerful warrior, and bring my Everlasting lineage to glory!"

After that, the young man ran out the door and never came back. Thinking about this, Limitless couldn't help but smile. Luckily, that young man left home and didn't get slaughtered, so he kept a trace of his bloodline.

If possible, he really wished that he could look at him before he died and hear him call him 'father'. However, Limitless only knew that it was impossible.

"..."

There were also sharp screams. Looking over, one would see a young man kneeling on the ground, his upper body bare, with two hands grabbing at his ears. Behind the young man was a beautiful woman, holding a leather whip in her hand, constantly whipping the young man's back.

Another light slap rang out, leaving a deep trail of blood on the young man's back. The young man cried out in pain, and at the same time, he told the girl, "Sister, stop hitting me, I know my wrongs!"

The woman was even angrier. She swung the whip over and said, "Now you know you're wrong. What are you doing? So many people died. If your family asks, I'll see how you explain it to your family."

As he spoke, he lashed out with a whip at the young man's body. The young man howled in pain and cursed at Shi Ling in his heart.

At this moment, who else could it be other than Zhang Yusheng who was kneeling on the ground? As for the pretty lady behind Zhang Yusheng, she was the second young miss of the Zhang family, Zhang Yue.

The Zhang Clan Head, Zhang Wu Hao had a total of three sons and daughters, among which the eldest, Zhang Tianxiao, was already an inner disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect and was ranked seventh on the Heavenly Rankings. Not only did he gain the favor of many of the sect's elders, he also possessed outstanding talent and was modest and polite.

As for the second brother, Zhang Yue, even though she was only a female, she was extremely hardworking. With the addition of her extraordinary talent and the support of her family, she had now become an outer sect official disciple, and was also an expert on the Mountain River List.

Zhang Yusheng was the only one who had no future in the Zhang family. It was fine if he did not do his work all day long, but he had also caused a lot of trouble at home. Not long ago, he was punished by the sect for sullying a new female disciple.

However, he still did not know how to repent. This time, in order to deal with a mere servant, they had sent out many experts from the Zhang Family, and that was fine, but the key point was that none of these experts had returned. Even Yan Wuping had lost contact with them.

Immediately, Zhang Yue picked up a whip and whipped Zhang Yusheng's body, causing Zhang Yusheng to immediately sit on the ground in pain. Zhang Yue wanted to pick up the whip and whip him, but instead, he quickly retreated and hid behind a tree.

Zhang Yue angrily said, "Come back here!"

However, Zhang Yusheng lost his temper and said, "Then put down the whip in your hand first."

Zhang Yue saw that this little rascal actually dared to negotiate with her, and was immediately angered to the point that her little face turned red. Her towering breasts rose and fell, and she suddenly slapped the long whip in her hand onto the stone table, saying, "You're not coming, right? Okay, when Big Bro comes back, let's see how he'll deal with you!" As he spoke, he sat down and took a cup of tea to drink.

When Zhang Yusheng heard about her big brother, she was stunned and did not dare to hide anymore. She immediately walked out obediently and then knelt in front of Zhang Yue and said, "I know I was wrong."

But facing his big brother, he was truly afraid. In his memories, this big brother of his was even more vicious than his father, and would not show any mercy when beating him. He still remembered that his legs were broken by that big brother, so how could he not be afraid?

Zhang Yue had calmed down, but her expression was still extremely ugly. She shouted towards the door: "Zhang Cheng!"

At this time, Zhang Cheng walked in, and after arriving in front of Zhang Yue, he cupped his fist, bowed and said, "This old servant is here."

Zhang Yue put down the teacup in her hand and asked, "Have you still not found the people you lost contact with?"

Zhang Cheng said, "Not yet, but our people have already cleared out that area. We should be able to find it very soon."

Zhang Yue replied, "There's no need to search. Let our people come back. Those who lost contact with us must have been killed. Even if they did, I'm afraid they're already dead. There's no need to search any further."

Zhang Cheng nodded in agreement and immediately wanted to do so. Zhang Yue said, "Oh right, there's one more thing."

Zhang Cheng hurriedly walked back and bowed to Zhang Yue as he said, "Second Miss, do you have any other instructions?"

Zhang Yue said, "Go and list the names of the people you have lost. Be quick about it. It's best to finish this matter before the Spirit Sword Sect comes down with their questions."

Zhang Cheng nodded and left. Zhang Yue then stood up and walked back and forth with her hands behind her back, not daring to say a single word. She was afraid that if she spoke another word, she would be slapped by her elder sister.

Zhang Yu Sheng had sent out nearly twenty experts, but they were all killed outside. One must know, even if the Zhang Family wanted to cultivate a master who was absolutely loyal to the Zhang Family, it would still take a lot of manpower and resources, but Zhang Yu Sheng was the only one who had lost a lot of resources, and all of a sudden, more than twenty people had died at his hands. If the Zhang Family asked him, Zhang Yu Sheng would be in trouble, and might be beaten to death by his father and brother.

However, Zhang Yue naturally could not stand by and watch as her own brother was killed. Otherwise, how could she face her dead mother? Immediately, Zhang Yue sat back down and asked Zhang Yu Sheng: "Who are you going to deal with?"

At this time, Zhang Yu Sheng's head was lowered even further, and he did not dare to say anything. However, Zhang Yue slapped the table and said: "Hurry up and say it!"

Zhang Yusheng hurriedly replied, "A errand boy named Shi Ling!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yue was so angry that she almost fainted. "A mere servant is worth sending over 20 experts to assassinate him!"

"Actually, it's not that complicated," Zhang Yusheng said submissively. "It's because that bastard Shi Ling slapped me in front of everyone in the Vast Expanse Valley, I was furious, so I sent people to kill him, and then the people I sent disappeared, and I thought he had perished together with Shi Ling, but then Yan Wuping saw that he was still alive and was going to take on a mission at the Pavilion, so I asked Yan Wuping to personally lead the way. We must kill Shi Ling, but who knows, they died outside."

At this time, Zhang Yue felt as if she was unable to make sense of the situation, and said: "That Yan Wuping should at least have the strength of an initial Blood Condensation cultivator, right? In addition to that, there are also more than a dozen experts accompanying us. We shouldn't have died outside. "

Zhang Yusheng also said in bewilderment, "I originally thought the same, but I don't know what happened to them. They were actually killed by Shi Ling. Now that they are all dead, no one can ask me what happened."

Zhang Yue bit her lips but didn't say anything. "I should have known that you would stop after sending the first batch of experts to assassinate Shi Ling if they didn't succeed. But why are you so stubborn!"

Zhang Yu Sheng was scolded by his sister to the point that he didn't dare to say anything. However, at this time, Zhang Cheng hurriedly ran in and said to Zhang Yue, "Second Miss, Qiu family's housekeeper, Qiu Liang is here."

At this time, Zhang Yue couldn't help but furrow her brows, "It's nothing, why did you come here for?"

Zhang Cheng said, "He said that there were survivors from the assassination attempt on Shi Ling!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yue and Zhang Yusheng both turned their heads, but Zhang Yue turned to Zhang Yusheng and said, "How did the people from the Qiu Family know about this?"

Zhang Yusheng lowered his head and said, "Just to be safe, I had Yan Wuping find Qiu DaoZhuo to deal with Shi Ling. That's why I dragged the Qiu Family into this."

Hearing this, Zhang Yue could no longer suppress the anger in her heart, and immediately, she slapped Zhang Yusheng's face, causing him to retreat several steps. At this time, Zhang Yue said to Zhang Cheng: "Come, let's go take a look."

Zhang Cheng nodded his head in agreement, and then followed behind Zhang Yue as he walked out. At this time, Zhang Yusheng also quickly got up from the ground, tidying up his clothes, and ran out. He also wanted to know, what exactly happened here, and why did so many experts all die at the hands of Shi Ling.

Soon, they arrived at a pavilion. An old man with white hair and beard was sitting in the pavilion, sipping a cup of tea. Next to him was a stiff faced Qiu Doudou, and behind him stood a masked young man.

Zhang Yue then walked over to the old man, bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, Butler Qiu. What are your orders today?"

Qiu Liang stood up from his seat, smiling. He turned to Zhang Yue and said, "I don't dare to take orders from you. However, this matter is still somewhat important."

Zhang Yue glanced at the stiff Qiu DaoZhuo. Then, she sat down and gestured for Qiu Liang to follow her.

At this time, Zhang Yusheng also looked at Qiu DaoZhuo, giving him a look, asking him why he couldn't even do that small thing properly, but Qiu DaoZhuo ignored him, as if he didn't know who he was.

Qiu Liang sat down and said, "I assume that Housekeeper Zhang has already told Second Miss about the purpose of my visit, right?"

Zhang Yue pursed her lips and chuckled, "I want to know who that witness is?"

Qiu Liang waved at Qiu DaoZhuo, who was standing next to him. Qiu DaoZhuo stood up, clasped his hands, and bowed to Zhang Yue. He said, "I, Qiu Daozhuo, greet Second Miss."

After Zhang Yue heard this, she looked over Qiu DaoZhuo's body and said, "Could it be that this young noble witnessed everything that happened before?"

Qiu Liang waved at Qiu DaoZhuo, gesturing for him to sit down again. Qiu Liang said, "Yes, out of all the people that Yan Wuping brought out earlier, he's the only one who survived."

Zhang Yue's eyes lit up as she looked at Qiu DaoZhuo and said: "Then tell me what happened earlier."

Qiu DaoZhuo lowered his head and said, "I don't remember."

Zhang Yue seemed surprised, Zhang Yu Sheng also stared at him and said: "Everyone is dead, only you are alive, you have escaped from the gates of hell, do you dare to say that you don't remember anything?"

Zhang Yue glared at him, indicating that he did not have the right to speak. Zhang Yu Sheng did not dare to speak anymore, but at the same time, what Zhang Yu Sheng wanted to ask was what she wanted to ask, so he turned to Qiu Dao Zhuo.

At this moment, Qiu Liang said, "You don't need to ask him anymore, he really doesn't remember anything."

Zhang Yue opened her eyes and asked: "How could this happen?"

Qiu Liang said, "I've already checked his body before. He must have suffered some kind of head impact that caused him to lose his memory. I tried to recover his memory, but he was in great pain."

Zhang Yue's slender eyebrows creased as she said, "In other words, he doesn't know anything now?"

Qiu Liang shook his head. "As long as we can find a way to recover his memories, everything that happened before will come to light."

Zhang Yue asked, "What does Butler Qiu mean by this?"

Qiu Liang said, "I've long heard that the Zhang family has a variety of spiritual herbs and medicines. One of them, 'Illusory Dream', is very effective in recovering amnesia."

Zhang Yue frowned and said, "We can only collect less than a hundred Illusory Dream Beast every ten years, and every one of them is very precious. Even our Zhang Clan regards them as treasures."

The meaning behind his words was that if you wanted to buy Illusory Dream, you could. However, the prerequisite was that you had to spend money to buy Illusory Dream.

Qiu Liang smiled, "Everyone understands the rules, but I don't have that much money on my behalf. I don't know if Second Miss can make any arrangements to heal my unfilial son first, but I'm worried that his memories will never recover after this period of time."

Zhang Yue said in a slightly displeased tone, "The words of Butler Qiu really made things difficult for me."

Qiu Liang waved his hand with a smile. "Not at all. As long as the Qiu Family's salary comes down in a few days, I will make it up to you. Also, don't you want to know how your Zhang Family sent their experts to die?" "I suspect that the brat called ShiLing has the help of some other powerful expert behind him. Otherwise, with just his strength alone, he would have had no chance of surviving against so many powerful enemies."

Hearing this, Zhang Yue also hesitated. She also wanted to know what had happened, but she still had some misgivings. At this time, Qiu Liang suddenly increased his fire and said, "Also, when the Spirit Sword Sect asks about Yan Wuping's death, I'll help you suppress it. How about it?"

Zhang Yue's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She immediately turned to look at Qiu DaoZhuo and walked over. She examined his mind to make sure he had lost his memory before saying to Qiu Liang, "Deal."

Qiu Liang laughed and said, "That's right, I just like to make deals with straightforward people."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked outside, saying, "There is one more thing, the so-called 'family is ugly and cannot be seen by the public.' Tomorrow is the examination competition for the disciples, and that servant named Shi Ling will definitely be there. When that time comes, I'm sure you don't need me to teach you what to do, right?"

After speaking, he departed. Zhang Yue's eyes narrowed as she spoke in a low voice, "Shi Ling!"
