<h4>Chapter 2162: Ungrateful Cheng n</h4>


    Once Ling Han asked, Ling Yueyan[1] immediately frowned.


    “What’s wrong?” Ling Dongxing hurriedly asked.


    Ling Yueyan seemed like she wanted to say something, but then hesitated.


    “Your elder brother is no stranger. What on earth happened?” Yue Hongchang asked as well.


    With the repeated questioning, Ling Yueyan finally answered, “It’s Yifeng.”


    “What’s wrong with Yifeng?” Yue Hongchang questioned closely. This Yifeng had the surname of Cheng, and was Ling Yueyan’s husband, as well as the son-inw of the Ling n.


    Ling Yueyan answered, “Yifeng said that the Roc Pce has been destroyed, and there is an unspeakable rtion between our Ling n and the Roc Pce, so he wishes to sever our matrimonial rtion to prevent the Cheng n from being implicated as well.”


    “What!?” Ling Dongxing was immediately furious, and mmed a hand fiercely on the table.


    To attain this matrimonial union with the Ling n, the Cheng n had been extremely humble, and it was also Cheng Yifeng who was the most versed in speaking sweet, pleasant words, such that he had sessfully enchanted Ling Yueyan, who had been inexperienced andpletely naive.


    Actually, Ling Yueyan had had too many options at the time. Who knew how many ns had strength that was far superior to the Cheng n’s, yet Ling Yueyan had still ultimately chosen Cheng Yifeng.


    The Cheng n was a Severing Mundane Tier force. In the Roc Heaven, it was naturally a negligible—to the point of being unnoticeable—force, but no matter how small they were, they were still stronger than the Ling n, so why had they gone to so much effort just to get a connection with the Ling n?


    Naturally, it was because they had their eye on the colossal giant standing behind the Ling n, the Roc Pce.


    The Cheng n’s choice had brought them great benefits. After bing inws with the Ling n, the Cheng n had obtained a considerably valuable dowry from the Ling n, and their n’s grand elder had even broken through to the Dividing Soul Tier due to this!


    But now?


    The Roc Pce had been destroyed by the Four Seas Pce, and the Cheng n feared that they would be eradicated as well by the Four Seas Pce, so they naturally chose to draw a clear dividing line between themselves and the Ling n. However, the Cheng n’s level was too low, so it was alsote when they received the news. Only now had they finally reacted.


    …If the Four Seas Pce wanted to call them for an ounting, how could they have possibly waited until today?


    In brief terms, since the Ling n no longer had value for exploitation, and could possibly cause detrimental effects on the Cheng n, they naturally abandoned this burden immediately.


    “What does the Roc Pce being destroyed mean?” Yue Hongchang wore a strange expression. Wasn’t it false? Hu Niu was still standing here.


    “I’m not sure, either.” Ling Yueyan was a little dazed. They were all too cut off from recent news.


    Ling Han interrupted, “A great change has indeed happened in the Roc Pce.”


    “But that bastardly brat should not have left Yueyan at this time, either. What does he mean by that?” Ling Dongxing mmed his hand loudly on the table. His daughter had actually been left, so he was naturally enraged.


    “This should not be Yifeng’s own intentions. He must have said so because his npelled him to.” Ling Yueyan was still speaking up on behalf of her husband.


    Ling Han waved her off, and said, “Sister, let’s go on to the Cheng n, and meet with Brother-inw.”


    Ling Yueyan instantly looked troubled. Some time ago, when Cheng Yifeng returned to the Cheng n, he never came back again. She could not hold herself back today, and thus went to the Cheng n. In the end, Cheng Yifeng chased her away, and said that he wanted to sever their matrimonial rtions.


    Additionally, there were still a great many people in the valley that belonged to the Cheng n. They came here because they had their eye on the resources of the Ling n. After all, Hu Niu definitely could not be stingy with Ling Dongxing and his wife. Furthermore, the cultivation resources beneath Celestial medicines really could not be considered much.


    These people would also immediately retreat back to the Cheng n. After all, the Ling n would no longer gain any more benefits from the Roc Pce, so what was the point of staying behind any further?


    “This…” Ling Yueyan said hesitatingly. Her heart was still siding with her husband, and hoped that thetter would change his mind, ande back to her.


    “Attention to all members of our Cheng n, pack up immediately, and return to our n!” Right at this moment, a person was heard calling out loudly in the valley, his voice rolling out like thunder.


    “Yes, Elder Taiheng!” the members of the Cheng n all called out in answer, and began packing up.


    They had already gotten all their gains, and now nned to run?


    Ling Han humphed, and immediately raced out. His eyes swept around, and he saw that a man was standing in midair. HIs hands were crossed behind his back, a proud expression on his face.


    Ths was an elder of the Cheng n, someone along the lines of an elder of a sect. His name was Cheng Taiheng, and he was a second severance. This kind of cultivation level was not much in the Celestial Realm, but in this small valley, where the strongest elite was only at the Genesis Tier, he naturally was qualified enough to look down on the people of the valley in contempt.


    “Shameless viins can all get out. However, whatever of our Ling n that you have used and eaten, return them wholly!” Ling Han dered.


    “And who are you?” Cheng Taiheng looked down from his lofty position, looking down on Ling Han.


    Because Ling Han had sealed his own aura off with the Source Powers of heaven and earth, no one below Celestial King Tier could possibly see through the depths of his cultivation levels. Cheng Taiheng naturally would consider Ling Han beneath him. The Ling n was only supported by the Roc Pce, so how could they have any kind of elites or talents.


    In the valley, the members of the Cheng n had gradually packed up their belongings, and were preparing to leave.


    “Elder Taiheng!” Cheng Zilong leaped out, and knelt down on one knee in front of Cheng Taiheng. “This person has humiliated me before, so please seek justice for my sake, Elder!”


    “En?” Cheng Taiheng showed a slight expression of surprise. Cheng Zilong was the most outstanding nsman in the younger generation of the Cheng n, and it was precisely because of this that he had been sent here—the cultivation resources that he could obtain here were far superior to what he could gain in the Cheng n,


    Yet Cheng Zilong was actually outmatched by Ling Han?


    ‘Impossible!’


    However, anger immediately caused him to forget this fact. In any case, the Ling n waspletely negligible, so what need was there for him to take it to heart? He humphed, and his eyes turned onto Ling Han as he said, “How dare you, to actually dare make a move on one of the members of our Cheng n!”


    What Ling Han hated the most was ungrateful traitors, and more importantly, the Cheng n had gone too far. They had exploited his younger sister to obtain the resources from Roc Pce, and now that Roc Pce had fallen, they couldn’t even wait to separate themselves from the Ling n, and even a wife could be thrown aside.


    F***, he could not tolerate this.


    “I will give Cheng Yifeng three days to kneel with every step he takes, ande seek forgiveness from my younger sister. However, I will ughter the entire Cheng n until no one is left alive!” Ling Han dered coldly. If he had not seen the expectant expression on Ling Yueyan’s face, and knew that she waspletely besotted with Cheng Yifeng, he wouldn’t even bother.


    All ungrateful traitors should all just be killed.


    “Hahahaha, where has this arrogant madmane from, he really has no idea of his own weight!” Cheng Taiheng smirked coldly.


    “Elder, please seek justice for me!” Cheng Zilong hurriedly begged once more.


    “All right!” Cheng Taiheng suppressed the slight doubt in his heart. It was definitely impossible that the Ling n had any kind of elite. He stretched out his right hand, which moved to cover Ling Han.?<i>Weng</i>, Regtions manifested in a gigantic inky ck hand, which grabbed out at Ling Han.


    Ling Han couldn’t bother to move, and only breathed out towards Cheng Taiheng.


    <i>Whoosh!</i>


    Wild winds blew madly, and that ck gigantic hand instantly shattered in the wind, and the great gust did not slow its speed, and immediately rushed towards Cheng Taiheng.?<i>Shua, shua, shua.</i>?The hurricane winds were as sharp as des, and the flesh and blood from Cheng Taiheng’s body was visibly scraped off cleanly, leaving behind only a skeleton, and then the skeleton itself was also shattered.


    When the wild winds had passed, Cheng Taiheng’s whole person had vanishedpletely.


    Deathly silence descended.


    That was Cheng Taiheng, a grand second severance elder, and he had actually been killed with the breeze someone had breathed out.


    This… monster, he had to be a monster!


    Cheng Zilong’s whole body shuddered, and an indescribable chill rose up from the depths of his heart as his legs involuntarily trembled.


    [1] Longer names like this one and others in the first several hundred chapters of the novel were divided into three words, and we followed this in recent chapters as a reminder that they’re the same people. Now, however, we will switch back to surname + first name (that is two words) style. Why the difference? Two words is the style used in maind China when using pinyin. Three (sometimes four, I believe) words are used in ces like Singapore. We have basically used the wrong style at the start.
