Chapter 497 People Gathered
While Ling Yun and the others were busy building several bridges across the stream and the main building of the residence, Feng Ruxue had already arrived at Cultivator Peak.
Unexpectedly, so many people from the Lower and Middle Clans were already gathered and waiting there, for they wanted to witness the trial of the people from the Nangong Clan just like the rumors were circulating outside.
Those people immediately cheered when they saw Feng Ruxue, causing her to sigh seeing them like that.
Not long after Feng Ruxue\'s arrival, people from the five Upper Clans arrived at the place.
As usual, the Chen Clan was led by Chen Wentian and Liu Ruyue. However, Fang Lin also came with them, for she wanted to confirm whether the man who spoke to her via voice transmission in the Yunlong Chamber of Commerce was Ling Yun.
The Zhang Clan is led by Zhang Long on Zhang Xingcai\'s behalf, for she prefers to stay by Ling Yun\'s side.
Meanwhile, Lei Yuntian and his two daughters arrived simultaneously as Ling Ming and Ling Jie.
The last to arrive were four people from the Huo Clan. Huo Jun, Chen Qing, Huo Yun, and Yan Zilan.
Lei Yuntian then asked her. "Madam Feng, where are the others? Why haven\'t they arrived yet? And what about the people from the Nangong Clan?"
"It seems you can\'t wait to punish them, huh?" Feng Ruxue said as she shook her head.
Lei Yuntian laughed at that. "Haha! After all, they are members of those blessed people and plotting bad things against us, so I naturally can\'t wait to see them receive harsh punishment."
"I agree with you." Huo Jun said as he nodded. "Fortunately, we got information about their sinister plans sooner, or else it would be too late for us to face them."
"However, I\'m still curious about the identity of the person who gave us that information." Ling Ming joined in, and he then asked Feng Ruxue. "Madam Feng, why did you and the others choose to cover up that person\'s identity? Since that person has already given us valuable information, we naturally won\'t do anything against that person."
Chen Wentian nodded in agreement with him. "Madam Feng, who exactly is that person?"
As for Zhang Long and the others, they naturally knew that person was Ling Yun. Yet, they chose to keep their mouths shut, especially since he was indirectly the leader of their clan, for he was Zhang Xingcai\'s husband.
Feng Ruxue shook her head at them. "You guys don\'t need to bother asking that, for I will never tell you that person\'s identity. Moreover, that person doesn\'t want to get involved with you guys, so he asked us to hide his identity."
Just as they were about to ask Feng Ruxue again, they suddenly sensed quite strong auras from several people moving swiftly toward them.
Soon Feng Qian, Feng Qingmeng, and a few elders from the Feng Clan landed before them, bringing many members from the Nangong Clan.
Those people could clearly see that the clan members were desperate about their situation, especially since their cultivation was sealed long ago, and the people in Feng City mistreated them.
After all, cultivators hate those blessed people, and the news about their plan to cooperate with the demons to invade their land has spread widely, making their hate for them even deeper.
"Madam Feng, we have brought them." Feng Qian and Feng Qingmeng reported together.
Feng Ruxue nodded to them. "Now we are just waiting for Long Wei and Xuanyuan Xue\'er, and we will immediately start the trial once they arrive at this place."
However, they didn\'t have to wait too long, and the people from the Long Clan had already arrived at the place. Long Wei brought his two wives, a son, and a daughter.
Behind them, people from their clan carried members from the Nangong Clan from their flying artifacts.
"Have you been waiting long?" Long Wei asked as he laughed.
Feng Ruxue shook her head at him. "We arrived not long ago, and Xue\'er still hasn\'t arrived either."
While waiting for the arrival of the people from the Xuanyuan Clan, they discussed their plans to punish those people. Even though Feng Ruxue, Long Wei, and Xuanyuan Xue\'er had planned everything, they still wanted to hear the opinions of those people, especially those from the Upper Clans.
On the other hand, two women seemed to be confusedly looking for someone, muttering in their hearts. \'Where\'s Ling Yun? Why didn\'t he come here with Madam Feng?\'
The two women were none other than Fang Lin and Long Yuyi, for they really wanted to meet Ling Yun, but they had different goals for meeting him.
Long Zhan raised his eyebrows when he noticed his youngest sister\'s behavior, and he asked her. "Who are you looking for, Yuyi?"
"Ling Yun." Long Yuyi replied curtly as her eyes kept searching for him.
After hearing that, Long Zhan sighed in his heart and asked her again. "Are you in love with Ling Yun?"
"Huh?" Long Yuyi turned to her big brother as she continued to blink, but soon she shook her head. "You are wrong about that, Big Brother. I may be attracted to Ling Yun, but it\'s not because of love."
"Then what attracted you to him?" Long Zhan suspiciously asked as he tried to suppress his jealousy towards Ling Yun.
Long Yuyi thought for a moment before answering him. "Honestly, it would be more accurate if I said that I admire him, he can even do many amazing things, so I want to meet and learn from him."
"I see." Long Zhan nodded in understanding; he then pointed towards the Central Forest. "Ling Yun is training there right now, and Qiu\'er is also with him. So if you want to see him, I will accompany you to go there after this event is over."
"Really?" Long Zhan nodded to her, and Long Yuyi said to him. "All right, you must accompany me to the forest to meet Ling Yun, okay?"
"Yes, I will accompany you." Long Zhan replied as he nodded.
Since she was standing not far from them, Fang Lin could hear the brother and sister talking. She also looked toward the Central Forest. \'Is Ling Yun really there? If so, I will go there to meet him, or else I can\'t rest easy until I find out the truth.\'
Meanwhile, the people from the Upper Clans could also hear their conversation. Yet, they only thought Long Yuyi was already smitten by Ling Yun. Yet, she was embarrassed to admit it, especially after they discovered that Long Qiu was also close to him.
Even so, one of them was very regretful about Ling Yun, and he was Ling Ming.
Sometime later, the Xuanyuan Sister had already arrived with a few members from their clan. Yet, they immediately looked towards the Central Forest without saying anything, and Xuanyuan Xue\'er then said to them. "Since everyone has arrived, we will start the trial immediately."
They all nodded in agreement with Xuanyuan\'er, and they immediately began the trial to determine the fate of the members of the Nangong Clan.

Meanwhile, two women had just arrived at Feng City. Lu Wan\'er then brought Situ Luan up to a building near Feng Clan\'s location. She immediately raised her eyebrows when she saw that the clan was quiet.
Moreover, Lu Wan\'er remembered another cultivator\'s words yesterday that the people from the Nangong Clan were locked up in a public place, but no one was there. "What happened? Why aren\'t those people in this town?"
"Hmm?" Situ Luan also raised her eyebrows. "Could Madam Feng have moved them somewhere else, Big Sis?"
"En, you might be right, Luan\'er." Lu Wan\'er then brought Situ Luan down from there, and they questioned one of the cultivators nearby. However, they were shocked after he told them that they took the people from the Nangong Clan to the Cultivator Peak for trial.
Lu Wan\'er then asked. "Is Nangong Ying\'er among them?"
"No." The man answered with a shake of his head. "Ever since those damn people were imprisoned in this city, no one has ever seen that bitch."
Although Lu Wan\'er felt furious after hearing his words, she immediately calmed down, for she didn\'t want to face the people of the Feng Clan in their city.
After that, Lu Wan\'er immediately took Situ Luan to a quiet place, and they immediately broke their returning jades to return to the Hundred Flower Sect.

Meanwhile, a woman was standing at the front of her flying artifact, and behind her were a young woman and a young man. Even though their genders are different, their faces show they are twins.
The woman in front suddenly asked. "Do you two want to join your cousin to train in the Central Forest, Shi and Shu?"
"Yes, Master." Yi Shi and Yi Shu replied in unison.
Yi Shi then said to her. "Master, since Yun\'er and his women can train in that forest, we feel that we can also train there, so Shu and I decided on that."
"That\'s right, Master." Yi Shu chimed in. "After all, we\'ve been cultivators longer than them, so we have confidence in our abilities."
Qin Shuang nodded to them. "Since you guys have decided on that, you can do it. Moreover, I\'ve wanted to meet that spirit woman for a long time, so I can ask her many things later."
"Yes, Master."
