The Heavenly Dragon's Beginning in the Journey Through the Heavens
Chapter 23: Guidance from Duan Yanqing Helps His Mother-in-Law Escape Predicament
In the original novel, Zhong Wanchou ended up all alone and ignored by everyone, a truly tragic end.
Since Ling Feng has decided to seduce Zhong Ling in this life, he should naturally have a good ending.
Of course, Ling Feng is not the kind of person who makes selfless contributions. If the other party does not appreciate it, he will not continue to help.
After all, Ling Feng had experience from his previous life and could understand the feelings of a sycophant.
Ling Feng then ignored the furious Zhong Wanchou and turned to look at the three villains in front of him.
In fact, among them, Ling Feng had no prejudice against Duan Yanqing and Yue Laosan.
On the contrary, he felt some disgust towards the wicked Ye Erniang and Yun Zhonghe, who had already met his demise.
There's no need to say more about Yun Zhonghe; he was simply a lewd and depraved pervert who deserved to die.
Besides, he's already dead, so Ling Feng doesn't want to comment on him anymore.
As for this Ye Erniang, because her own child was lost, she has harmed countless infants over the years.
How many parents have suffered the same fate as her? Given the chance, Ling Feng certainly wouldn't let her go.
Ling Feng then looked at Duan Yanqing again, knowing that if he wanted to help Duan Yu completely resolve this problem, he had to deal with Duan Yanqing first.
Of course, killing him to silence him was not the only option Ling Feng could think of, so the only way he could think of was to target Duan Yu's identity.
"Now that they've left, let's find a place to talk. You'll find what I have to say very interesting."
Duan Yanqing did not object to this. Ling Feng's words piqued his interest, and besides, it seemed pointless to object.
The two moved to the side, making sure the others couldn't hear what they were saying, before Ling Feng spoke:
"Actually, the reason you've been causing trouble for the Dali royal family is simply because of the time they stole your throne. Am I right?"
Duan Yanqing stared coldly at Ling Feng without saying a word, but his eyes revealed a hint of wariness and curiosity.
Ling Feng smiled and continued:
"I know you are filled with resentment, but I can tell you a secret that may change everything."
Duan Yanqing frowned slightly and asked in confusion:
"What secret?"
Ling Feng took a deep breath and solemnly said, "Outside Tianlong Temple, under the Bodhi tree, Guanyin has long hair, and the beggar is disheveled. Duan Yu... is actually your biological son!"
Upon hearing this, Duan Yanqing's eyes suddenly widened, his face filled with astonishment as he stared at Ling Feng in disbelief.
"You're talking nonsense!"
Duan Yanqing shouted angrily.
Ling Feng shrugged and said calmly:
"Believe it or not, but think about it carefully. Do you have any similarities with Duan Yu? And if you want to verify, you can ask Master Kurong of Tianlong Temple. He should know the answer."
Duan Yanqing remained silent for a moment, a complex expression flashing in his eyes.
He recalled that night many years ago, but he never imagined it would be Dao Baifeng.
Could it be true, as Ling Feng said, that Duan Yu is actually his biological son?
Duan Yanqing's mood became unusually heavy, and he was caught in an internal struggle.
If Duan Yu is truly his son, then what does everything he did count for?
"Now that you've told me all this, what do you want me to do?"
Duan Yanqing looked at Ling Feng expressionlessly and asked.
"Just like I said, in your current state, even if you kill all the members of the royal family, it's impossible for you to become emperor again."
"So it would be better to let your son become the emperor, wouldn't it be the same? And you could choose to become a nun at Tianlong Temple, so you can secretly protect your son."
Ling Feng looked at Duan Yanqing and said.
Duan Yanqing neither agreed nor disagreed with Ling Feng's suggestion. If everything was really as he said, then it wouldn't be a bad idea.
Why are you telling me all this? What is your purpose in doing these things?
Duan Yanqing looked at Ling Feng with suspicion, as if trying to see through his true thoughts.
"Haha... I didn't have any ulterior motive. I just found out about this by chance, and since I have some connection with Duan Yu, I thought I'd help him out of some trouble."
Ling Feng's lips curled up, revealing a faint smile.
Although Duan Yanqing did not completely believe Ling Feng's words, he could not figure out Ling Feng's purpose for the time being, so he stopped worrying about it.
"Alright, I've told you everything. As for what decision you make, that's none of my business."
Ling Feng clapped his hands, then turned and left.
Having said that, Ling Feng said no more.
He was never a patient person to begin with. If Duan Yanqing remained obstinate, he could simply help the Dali royal family get rid of this scourge later, though it would be a little more troublesome.
After returning to the courtyard, Ling Feng ignored everyone else and went straight to Zhong Ling and Mu Wanqing.
He approached Zhong Ling and asked softly:
"Ling'er, where is your mother? I haven't seen her at all."
Upon hearing Ling Feng's question, Zhong Ling suddenly realized that she had forgotten about her mother, and her expression changed drastically. She anxiously said:
"Oh no! My mother is still locked in her room by my father."
Having said that, Zhong Ling was extremely anxious and immediately turned around and ran wildly in a certain direction.
Seeing this, Ling Feng did not hesitate to call Mu Wanqing and follow her.
As for the other people present, Ling Feng had no time to care about them.
Ling Feng held Mu Wanqing's hand and followed closely behind Zhong Ling.
The two arrived at a house together, only to find that the door and windows were firmly sealed from the outside, clearly indicating that Zhong Wanchou had taken ample precautions.
None of the three had a key, and none of them wanted to go back to Zhong Wanchou to get it. Ling Feng immediately said to Mu Wanqing, who was standing nearby:
"Wanqing, just break this lock."
Without hesitation, Mu Wanqing drew her sword and with a 'bang,' the iron chain was cleaved to the ground.
Zhong Ling was the most anxious. As soon as the iron lock hit the ground, she rushed forward, pushed open the door, and ran inside.
Ling Feng and Mu Wanqing followed closely behind and came in, only to see the mother and daughter embracing each other, whispering and sobbing as they spoke.
After a long while, the two finally calmed down. Gan Baobao looked up at Ling Feng and said:
"Ling Feng, Ling'er has just told me everything. I want to thank you for everything you've done."
Ling Feng smiled and waved his hand, saying:
"Auntie, please don't worry. This is what I should do for Ling'er."
Gan Baobao nodded, a look of relief on her face.
Her thank you seemed a bit out of the ordinary, and Ling Feng was completely baffled, not knowing what she was thanking her for.
Was it because he saved Duan Zhengchun and the others? Or was it because he restored peace to Wanjie Valley?
Ling Feng didn't press for the reason, after all, Gan Baobao would become his mother-in-law in the future, and she was his biological mother.
