The Heaven-defying Beast Controller: The Evil Empress Sweeps the Nine Heavens

Chapter 46 Investigating Cheng Zhenlin

Cheng Tianling went out without staying at Feng's house. After waiting outside, Feng Yihai spoke: "Thank you very much just now."

"Why are you thanking me?" Cheng Tianling turned to look at him.

Feng Yihai's face was a little awkward, but he still explained: "You are afraid that my father won't be able to hold on, so you are planning to unblock Phoenix after the matter is over."

Hearing this, Cheng Tianling smiled slightly and did not deny it, but he also did not admit it: "Your father is a good man."

After saying this, Cheng Tianling took Tao Shanshan to leave. Bai Qingran, who came out last, saw the two leaving, said hello to Feng Yihai and followed him.

"Cheng Tianling, my father wants to see you!"

Cheng Tianling stopped and turned to look at him.

After thinking for a while, Cheng Tianling looked at Tao Shanshan: "You take Bai Ze and Huan Chaos back first, and I'll go to the Bai family."

"Hey, is it okay for you to be alone?"

Tao Shanshan was a little worried.

But Cheng Tianling shook his head.

Seeing that she thought it was nothing, Tao Shanshan left with Bai Ze and Huan Chaos first, while she went to Bai's house with Bai Qingran.

Because there are some things that Cheng Tianling is also very concerned about.

When Cheng Tianling arrived at Bai's house, Patriarch Bai was already waiting. The moment he saw Cheng Tianling, Patriarch Bai felt as if he had seen a savior.

"Lord Cheng Tianling..."

"Just call me Tian Ling, there's no need to call me that."

When Cheng Tianling saw them calling him this way, he thought about it and corrected himself.

The head of the Bai family nodded, and then his face became heavy.

"A lot of things have happened in the past six months. I think you saw it when you returned to Cheng's house that day, Tian Ling. Something big might happen to Long Yanguo."

After hearing his words, Cheng Tianling also asked: "Cheng family... What did Cheng Zhenlin say when he came to you that day?"

The head of the Bai family looked at Cheng Tianling and was silent for a while. Then he said solemnly: "Cheng Zhenlin wants to create a sect composed of aristocratic families."

Not to mention Cheng Tianling, Bai Qingran was shocked this time: "Why have I never heard you talk about father?"

What does it mean to create a sect?
These aristocratic families no longer retain their own inheritance, but must listen to one person's words.

Cheng Tianling also fell silent, thinking slowly in his heart.

When did Cheng Zhenlin have such ability?

Create a family sect?

In the past, he would never have dared to think about it. Is there someone behind Cheng Zhenlin?
Who is helping him?
A series of questions came out of his mind, but Cheng Tianling didn't have any clues.

"Then what do you and other aristocratic families think?" Cheng Tianling had no choice but to ask.

The expression on the face of the Bai family leader became ugly again, and he said slowly: "Actually, Cheng Zhenlin has told us a long time ago that the aristocratic families have always refused before, but every time they refuse, something will happen to someone in the aristocratic family."

Either someone died, or the industry was hit hard.

It was as if someone was forcing them secretly.

So the aristocratic families hesitated.

They all want to investigate Cheng Zhenlin, but every time the people they send out die mysteriously or disappear, and now they don't have any information.

I don’t even know what kind of person is behind Cheng Zhenlin.

"You haven't found any clues?"

There was a hint of surprise in Cheng Tianling's voice when he asked this question.

The head of the Bai family shook his head: "Cheng Zhenlin is very cautious, we can't find any flaws."

Cheng Tianling frowned: "That's strange. According to what you said, why would the Feng family catch a person and force him to ask about their affairs?" If Cheng Zhenlin is really so cautious, then This error should not occur.

The head of the Bai family was silent, of course he didn't know about this.

"It's a little strange."

"Tian Ling, what I mean is that you should not interfere in this matter. What if it has something to do with the people above?"

Cheng Tianling stood up: "If that's the case, then I have to intervene even more. I can't involve innocent people, but I won't let go of people with ulterior motives."

After learning some other things from the head of the Bai family, Cheng Tianling left the Bai family. This time she didn't go anywhere else and went straight back to the Cheng family.

As soon as she reached Cheng's house, Cheng Zhenlin came out to greet her as if he had received the news.

"Tian Ling, where have you been? It's hard for you to go home. You should stay at home for a while!"

Seeing his eager look, Cheng Tianling followed his words and said, "Well, the second uncle is right. In this case, why don't the second uncle find a way to let me accompany my father?"

Her topic suddenly changed, and Cheng Zhenlin almost missed it, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Didn't I tell you that the head of the family is seriously ill and contagious? What if you are also infected?"

Cheng Tianling raised his eyebrows and continued: "In that case, why don't you give me the things at home first?"

Cheng Zhenlin laughed sarcastically: "I'll look for an opportunity for you to accompany your father. You should come back and see him."

Seeing him abruptly changing the topic, Cheng Tianling twitched the corner of his mouth, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

It seems that he really wants to control the entire Cheng family.

"Okay, then I'll bother my second uncle."

Without exposing him, Cheng Tianling turned around and went to the backyard.

But Cheng Zhenlin stopped her again, with a serious tone, but if you listen carefully, you will find a hint of urgency: "Tian Ling, there is something I want to tell you. Can we talk?"

Seeing him stop him again and again, Cheng Tianling narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling something strange.

What is this Cheng Zhenlin doing?
But she didn't question him. She wanted to see what Cheng Zhenlin was planning to do.

"Okay, then where are we going to talk?"

"Just in the lobby."

Cheng Zhenlin turned around and walked forward, and Cheng Tianling also changed direction. At this moment, she glanced over with her peripheral vision, and a figure came into view.

When she turned around, she found no one there.

Cheng Tianling paused and stared in the direction behind him for a while.

"Tian Ling, what's wrong? What are you looking at?"

Cheng Zhenlin in front saw her standing still, so he opened his mouth to urge her.

Cheng Tianling turned his eyes back and replied: "Well, it's nothing, I'm here."

Following Cheng Zhenlin as he walked in front, Cheng Tianling's mind was still on the figure he just saw.

Although he didn't see his face, Cheng Tianling felt very familiar.

If she saw it correctly, that figure should be Cheng Yan.

Cheng Tianling did not expect that Cheng Yan was still alive.

She remembered that Cheng Yan seemed to have a lot of broken ribs when Chaos stepped on her.

She also returned to Cheng's house?

If that's the case, things are about to get interesting.
