After being dressed as Wu Zetian's daughter, she was favored by the group

Li Lingyue's eyes were cunning, and she leaned over and smiled at Shi Qingfeng:
"This princess recognizes your biological father!"

Without waiting for Shi Qingfeng to refute, she handed the sword to him and pursed her lips:

"Take a good look at this sword. It's exactly the same as the wooden sword in your wooden house!"

After hearing what she said, Shi Qingfeng turned his attention back to the sword. The cloud pattern on the hilt was very consistent with the wooden sword he had used before, especially the word "Chen" engraved with gold plating at the end of the sword. The handwriting was very vigorous and flamboyant, and it was indeed similar to the word "Chen" on the copper bell hanging under the eaves of his old home.

Shi Qingfeng looked a little excited and a little confused.

Li Lingyue folded her arms, sat down next to him, and said jokingly:
"If I'm guessing correctly, your father is the old man wearing a mask. He beat you severely but didn't kill you because he wanted to find out where your mother lived in seclusion. From what I know about you, you definitely didn't even ask why and just went straight to fighting with him. As a result, you were not as skilled as him and were tortured by him using inhumane methods. Am I right?"

Shi Qingfeng turned his head and asked coldly, "How did you know?"

Li Lingyue laughed and did not answer, because she was the culprit. If she had not used Shi Qingfeng as a shield in order to protect herself, the Third Master would not have tortured Shi Qingfeng like this and used such despicable tricks to force the two of them to submit.

"Don't worry about how I know this. Answer me first, is that masked old man trying to find out your mother's whereabouts?"

Shi Qingfeng fell silent upon hearing this, recalling the several fights with the masked old man. It was indeed as Li Lingyue said, the other party could have killed him, but in the end he just tortured him by tearing off his limbs and forcing him to tell him if he knew a woman named "Xiuzhen". As someone who claimed to be from a famous and upright family, he had already determined that the Third Master was a villain in the martial arts world. Not to mention that he had no impression of Xiuzhen, even if he really knew her, he would never tell the other party.

Later, the Third Master pressed him to tell him whether he knew the Gezhao Sect and Manichaeism. He had never heard of Manichaeism, but he knew about the Gezhao Sect. Ever since he entered the Tiandao Sect, the Gezhao Sect had always been regarded as the scum of the Taoist sect by the Tiandao Sect. Whenever the Tiandao disciples met them, they would do their best to kill them. Therefore, he had a preconceived idea that the Third Master was most likely a member of the Gezhao Sect, and in this case, it was even more impossible to get anything from him.

Thinking of this, Shi Qingfeng retorted without hesitation:

"Stop talking nonsense. That villain is a member of the evil cult. All disciples of the Tiandao Sect have the right to kill him!"

Li Lingyue rolled her eyes. Is this guy a blockhead? He actually defined the damn Third Master as a cult. Does the Tiandao Sect also use brainwashing?

Li Lingyue, who was unwilling to give up, took Shi Qingfeng to the wooden house and pointed out the similarities between the furnishings in the wooden house and Shi Qingfeng's hometown. Finally, the two came to the painting. Li Lingyue pointed at the female general in armor on it and said to Shi Qingfeng with some admiration:

"Look carefully. The sword on the waist of the female general in the painting is the one in your hand. If I'm not mistaken, her name is Chen Shuozhen. She is the leader of the rebel army. She once led her men to capture cities and strongholds, and occupied half of the territory of our Tang Dynasty..."

Li Lingyue paused, suppressed the excitement in her heart, and said in a trembling voice: "In fact, she is the first female emperor in the history of China, posthumously named "Emperor Wenjia", and you are her son, the deposed prince!"

After Li Lingyue finished speaking, she looked inexplicably arrogant. Perhaps it was because she was also a strong woman, and when she saw a senior who was more awesome than herself, she couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration in her bones.

If Chen Shuozhen is Shi Qingfeng's mother, then Shi Qingfeng's identity...isn't it the deposed prince of the previous dynasty?

Li Lingyue's eyes immediately sparkled with little stars, her thoughts had already flown away to the sky, countless awesome scenes kept appearing in her mind.

My goodness, this guy named Shi took advantage of me. If I marry him in the future, wouldn’t I have more status?

My grandfather is an emperor, my grandfather is an emperor, my father is an emperor, my mother is an emperor, my brother is an emperor, and my nephew is an emperor. If I marry Shi Qingfeng, then my mother-in-law will also be an emperor. If I become more ambitious in the future and kick my nephew out to become emperor myself, then wouldn’t all of my, Li Lingyue’s descendants be emperors?
Good fellow! Other families are either full of loyal and brave people or full of treacherous people, but in my case, I have a family full of emperors. Thousands of years later, how will the history books evaluate me? In terms of power alone, I must be the number one person in the world.

Just as Li Lingyue was immersed in endless fantasies, Shi Qingfeng poured a basin of cold water on her and said coldly:
"Stop talking nonsense. Chen Shuo is a demon who caused chaos in the country. Her death is not a pity. My mother is just a peasant woman. She doesn't know martial arts and her last name is not Chen!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Li Lingyue grabbed Shi Qingfeng's sleeve and said in a somewhat inappropriate manner: "Look carefully again, your mother is Chen Shuozhen, otherwise how could your cabin be exactly the same as this one, and how could this sword be engraved with..."

Before she could finish, Shi Qingfeng shook off Li Lingyue's pull and snorted, "The village I live in is originally Chenjia Village. Every household has the surname Chen. My mother and I are outsiders!"

Shi Qingfeng spoke very decisively, and it didn't seem like he was lying. Li Lingyue's excited mood instantly sank to the bottom, but he still asked:
"Then tell me who your mother is and what her name is. What's your father's surname and name?"

"No comment!" Shi Qingfeng said, turned around and walked out.

Li Lingyue stood there in a daze, her heart in turmoil. All the clues clearly pointed to her determining the truth, but when the mystery was revealed, the answer was the exact opposite of what she thought it was, as if all this was a joke played by God on her.

Shi Qingfeng stepped out of the door and walked down the stairs steadily. Li Lingyue's voice came from behind him: "Hey, wait a minute!"

"Anything else?" Shi Qingfeng turned his head and asked softly.

Li Lingyue folded her arms, leaned against the door frame, and asked with a little concern: "Where are you going?"

Shi Qingfeng thought that the other party would continue to talk about his life experience, but he didn't expect that the other party suddenly changed his mind. He was slightly stunned and wanted to say "It has nothing to do with you", but when the words came to his lips, he temporarily changed them to:
"I have violated the sect's rules and my sins are grave. I must return to Chang'an to accept my punishment!"

Li Lingyue said "Oh", looked him up and down, and had a little more approval of this guy's character, so she curled her lips and smiled at him:

"If you leave, who will protect me? Don't forget, you promised me, Aye, that you would be my personal bodyguard!"

Shi Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, then turned around and saluted Li Lingyue:
"After I return to Xuandu Temple, Master will send another senior brother over... Take care!"

After that, he turned around and left.

Li Lingyue walked out of the room and refused directly: "Okay, don't send anyone else over here. You alone are annoying enough!"

As he spoke, he walked in front of Shi Qingfeng, leaned slightly, got close to his shoulder, and deliberately teased: "Besides, this is not the first time you have flirted with me, why are you pretending to be a pure man... Hey, don't do it!"

Seeing Shi Qingfeng's fists clenched so tightly that they made a crackling sound, Li Lingyue quickly put away her frivolous expression, took a small step back, and continued, "I advise you to investigate the masked old man before you go back to accept the punishment. Think about it, he could have killed you, but he showed you mercy. His purpose was to find out the whereabouts of 'Chenjia Village' from you. Don't you think it's strange? In my opinion, even if he is not your biological father, he must be related to someone around you. It's better to ask clearly, so as not to miss a father!"

The reason why Li Lingyue said this was that she still suspected that Shi Qingfeng's life experience was related to Chen Shuozhen. Thinking back to the fight last night, those people from the Fire Phoenix Society did not come for her and the Third Master, but for Shi Qingfeng. There must be some unspeakable secret here.

Shi Qingfeng remained silent for a long while, then bowed to Li Lingyue and flew out.

"Hey, what are you thinking about? Squeak!"

Li Lingyue shouted in the direction where Shi Qingfeng disappeared, but did not hear a reply until the figure completely disappeared. Li Lingyue shook her head helplessly, turned around and cursed in the direction of the wooden house: "Da Huang, you beast, get out quickly and follow me back to the Taoist temple!"

With a roar of a tiger, Dahuang came out from behind the cabin, wagging his tail.

Li Lingyue moved her feet and moved behind Dahuang's butt. Dahuang seemed to sense Li Lingyue's ill intentions and also moved with tiger steps, circling around Li Lingyue.

The man and the tiger were drawing circles on the spot. Li Lingyue had lost all patience. He jumped up and pounced on Dahuang, wanting to ride on its back. However, Dahuang dodged and was faster. Li Lingyue missed and fell flat on his face.

Li Lingyue spat out the weeds in his mouth with two "puffs" and cursed, "You damned beast, I'm going to rip your tiger skin off today!"

As he said that, he ran outside the yard and broke off a vine. When Dahuang saw it, he instinctively felt fear, glared at it, and ran away.

After a long time, a beautiful scenery appeared in the valley. A woman holding a rattan stick was chasing a tiger with murderous intent, running all over the mountains... (End of this chapter)
