So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

This caused cold sweat to break out on Jiuze's forehead.

Mrs. Lan had done a lot with him over the years.

There were some things that he originally thought Ling Jiucheng didn't know.

Now it seems that Ling Jiucheng may not be able to stay.

He took a deep breath and smiled stiffly.

"Brother, you are joking..."

Before he could finish, Ling Jiucheng interrupted him.

"You know whether I am joking or not. Ling Jiuze, whether it is the Red Feather Sword or the Jade Jade, they originally belonged to Jiuan. As for other things that belonged to Jiuan, they will all return to Jiuan and no one can take them away."

His mother said to be patient, and he has been patient for so many years, but now he finally doesn't have to endure it anymore.

Ling Jiuze looked extremely unhappy, but he had to endure it.

And Ling Jiuxi was even more frightened.

Jiucheng knew all those things clearly.

This was something she had never thought of before.

Seeing this, Ling Jiuan felt relieved.

"Brother, let's go back!"

She had no mood to watch the show now because she had too many questions.

The only person who can solve her doubts is Ling Jiucheng.

After getting on Ling Jiucheng's carriage, Ling Jiuan did not hesitate and directly asked the questions in his mind.

"Brother, did these things already recognize their master?"

Ling Jiucheng smiled.

"That's it!"

He should be the only one in the entire Ling family who knows about these things.

Back then, their mother, Lin Zhiyao, was the most beautiful woman in the world and her fame spread far and wide.

In addition to her unparalleled beauty, what is even more enviable is her rare talent.

At the age of twenty, she was already an eighth-level Jindan master, and later married her childhood sweetheart Ling Changfeng.

After they got married, their life was quite happy.

Soon, Ling Jiucheng was born.

He inherited his mother's talent and had been a candidate for the future head of the family since he was young, with high hopes placed on him.

But everything changed in the second year after Ling Jiucheng was born.

Ling Changfeng had not yet taken over the position of head of the family at that time. He was out on business and rescued Madam Lan and brought her back.

In just three months, Mrs. Lan became pregnant.

From then on, the story of their sincere love turned into a joke.

It’s not that Lin Zhiyao didn’t care, but at that time the two families were getting married, so she had to endure it.

The next year, Ling Jiuze was born, and Madam Lan officially became a concubine.

From then on, Ling Changfeng's feelings for Lin Zhiyao completely returned to normal.

Madam Lan is ruthless and has complicated thoughts, and she has often made moves behind the scenes.

How could someone as smart as Lin Zhiyao not understand? It was only by taking many precautions that Ling Jiucheng was able to grow up successfully.

But soon, Mrs. Lan became pregnant again.

Then, Ling Changfeng succeeded the position of the head of the family and doted on Madam Lan.

It was not until Ling Jiuxi was born that Ling Changfeng seemed to come to his senses and realize that he still had a wife.

So later, Ling Jiurong came into being.

It’s a pity that Ling Jiurong’s natural aptitude and physique are average, and she is not as talented as Ling Jiuxi.

As a result, Ling Changfeng loved Ling Jiuxi even more.

It was just that Ling Changfeng's position as the head of the family was secured because of his eldest son's extraordinary talent. He was not too harsh on Lin Zhiyao and would visit her in her yard from time to time.

It was at this time that Ling Jiuan appeared.

As soon as Lin Zhiyao became pregnant, some people asserted that this was something extraordinary.

For this reason, Ling Changfeng ignored Madam Lan.

Later, when she was about to give birth, Lin Zhiyao quietly called her seven-year-old son to her bedside and asked everyone around to leave.

Lin Zhiyao looked at her young son, her eyes full of helplessness.

"Cheng'er, I'm afraid that I won't be able to make it. So I'm going to tell you a few things, you have to remember them well."

Hearing this, the young Ling Jiucheng burst into tears.

"Mom, please don't leave me alone."

What's the kid's fault? How could he understand those things?

Even if a child becomes precocious, he is still a child who needs his mother.

Lin Zhiyao looked at her son who was crying out of breath, her eyes filled with heartache.

"Cheng'er, don't cry. You are the older brother, and from now on, you will be the one to protect your two younger sisters. If... your father doesn't like your younger sisters and treats them harshly in the future, you should take care of yourself first."

"As for the two sisters, you just need them to live well. One day, they will grow up. When the time comes, you can give the things I gave you to your younger sister, understand?"

She knew very well that this pregnancy was special.

But her life will never be smooth sailing.

But it’s okay. When she’s not around, they’re too outstanding and it’s dangerous.

Ling Jiucheng nodded blankly.

"I understand, mother..."

Then, Lin Zhiyao took out the Chiyu Sword.

"Keep this. No one knows that the Red Feather Sword is in my hand. It has long recognized me as its master. I originally thought that I could travel the world with my sword. Now I think it was just a dream."

She is the eldest daughter of the Lin family, and she was born to bear the heavy responsibility of the family.

So she had no idea about marrying Ling Changfeng.

In a family marriage, it is naturally good if both parties are in love with each other.

If not, that’s okay.

But she was still somewhat unwilling to be trapped in this square backyard and waste her life.

Ling Jiucheng put away the Chiyu sword and held Lin Zhiyao's hand obediently.

"Mother, I understand. I will be obedient and protect myself and my sisters."

Lin Zhiyao nodded, her eyes full of relief.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. There are still many top-grade magic tools in this room. If I am not here, they may be taken away by others. Don't fight with them for them. These things will all be returned. Do you understand?"

Now, there is less and less she can do for her children.

Ling Jiuan didn't understand at that time, but he agreed to all of Lin Zhiyao's requests.

Now I'm grown up.

He understood it all.

He looked at Ling Jiuan and smiled.

"My mother must have been attacked by a traitor at that time. She realized that she would die soon and told me a lot of things. This Red Feather Sword is what she left for you."

Only you are worthy of the Akabane Sword!

Ling Jiuan was stunned.

"Leave it to me?"

That's not right. She wasn't even born at that time, so how could I acknowledge her as my master?

Ling Jiucheng nodded.

"Mother had a difficult childbirth, and in order to save you, she gave you all her blood and energy. So... the Akabane Sword was yours before you were born."

But because of Lin Zhiyao's death, the Chiyu Sword has been silent for many years.

If it wasn't in Ling Jiuan's hands, it would be like a piece of scrap metal.

Ling Jiuan was somewhat moved.

"Mother, she..."

The love of the parents is far-reaching.

After living two lifetimes, she finally realized that there really are parents who devote all their efforts to their children.

I think the arrangements Lin Zhiyao made before her death were the best she could do for her children.

Her eyes darkened and her tone became colder.

"The murderer is Madam Lan?"

Apart from Madam Lan, Ling Jiuan couldn't think of anyone else.

Even Ling Changfeng had no reason to kill his talented wife who was willing to be indistinguishable from the crowd.

Only Madam Lan has both the motivation and the ability.
