Chapter 1659: Chapter 719: News of Death

That night, in the Huangquan Team’s camp, Tang Tiansong stayed awake all night.

Several times, he wished he could sprout wings and rush to find Tang Lingbo.

But remembering the team leader’s words, he restrained himself.

Early in the morning, as dawn barely broke, Tang Tiansong impatiently went to find Ye Lingyue.

Only to find out that Ye Lingyue had not returned last night.

"She might have gone to find Di Shen."

Senior Sister Wan Yun showed a knowing expression. Back when she and her senior brother became a Dual Cultivation Couple, they were inseparable for a time, almost like conjoined twins.

Seeing Senior Sister Wan Yun’s suggestive expression, Tang Tiansong felt a bit embarrassed.

He dared not go to find Di Shen, as he always felt somewhat apprehensive about him.

"Senior Sister Wan Yun, if the team leader returns, please tell her I went to find Lingbo first. I... I can’t let go."

Tang Tiansong worried about Tang Lingbo’s injury, fearing that without treatment after 24 hours, she would either die or be crippled.

"Don’t worry, a few of us will go with you, and with numbers, the Tang Family won’t dare do anything to you."

Senior Sister Wan Yun and Ye Liuyun, along with Bo Qing, Qin Xiaochuan, and Guangzi, headed to the location of Tang Family’s Representative Team together.

The group arrived outside Tang Lingbo’s tent.

The guards assigned to watch over Tang Lingbo saw Tang Tiansong and warily blocked him.

"Let me in, or don’t blame me for being rude."

Tang Tiansong shouted.

These guards were all peripheral members of the Tang Family, acquaintances of Tang Tiansong from years past.

"Tang Tiansong, you have some nerve to keep causing trouble again and again."

Tang Lei approached with Nian Wu Venerable, striding forward.

Seeing Tang Tiansong, his expression changed drastically, and without a word, they were about to fight.

"Tang Lei, you’re less than a pig or dog. Ling Bo did so much for the Tang Family, yet you aren’t even willing to save her. Today, no matter what, I will take her away."

Tang Tiansong firmly decided that regardless of whether Tang Lingbo would be crippled or not, he would take good care of her.

"Tang Lingbo is my fiancée, Tang Lei’s, unless she dies, she will always be Tang Lei’s woman. You’re welcome to ask Tang Lingbo if she’s willing to go with you!"

With that, Tang Lei tore open the tent, wanting Tang Tiansong and Tang Lingbo to confront each other.

But inside the tent, it was silent.

Tang Lei suspiciously looked inside and saw Tang Lingbo lying on the bed, motionless, still masked, her once snowy white skin had turned blue-purple.

"Ling Bo!"

Tang Tiansong was shocked and rushed inside, ignoring the stunned Tang Lei.

He cradled Tang Lingbo; her body still held a trace of warmth, but her chest had long stopped moving, as if she had been dead for quite some time.

Tang Tiansong roared angrily, his voice as fierce as a beast that had lost its mate.

Nian Wu Venerable hurried forward to check Tang Lingbo’s pulse.

After a moment, Nian Wu Venerable shook his head regretfully.

"Second Young Master Tang, Miss Lingbo has been dead for more than an hour. Her heartbeat and pulse are gone, her pupils are dilated, and her meridians have all severed; she probably died by severing her own meridians."

"Tang Lei, it’s you, you drove her to death! Why, clearly already getting your wish and betrothed to her, why couldn’t you treat her well."

Tang Tiansong, a seven-foot man, was now hoarse and enraged, wishing he could tear Tang Lei to pieces, drink his blood, and gnaw his flesh.

Tang Lei looked pained; he gazed at Tang Lingbo’s corpse, took a deep breath, and suddenly burst into laughter.

"What fiancée, what wish fulfilled. Tang Tiansong, Tang Lingbo had no place for me in her heart. Look at her, look at her state; after you left, she was like a ghost."

Tang Lei lunged forward and pulled off Tang Lingbo’s mask.

"Tang Lei, how dare you!"

Tang Tiansong saw Tang Lei still daring to offend Tang Lingbo’s corpse and punched Tang Lei.

"Brother Tang, calm down. Miss Ling Bo’s body is not yet cold; if you behave like this, she’ll be saddened."

Several from the Huangquan Team rushed forward, some intercepting Tang Lei, others stopping Tang Tiansong.

Just then, Ye Liuyun lowered her head and happened to see Tang Lingbo’s appearance, she gasped.

Tang Tiansong looked down, and when he saw Tang Lingbo under the mask, he was stunned.

Even in death, Tang Lingbo’s face was still exceptionally beautiful.

But her head was bald, like a nun who had renounced the world.

Tang Tiansong was incredulous.

Tang Lingbo was a woman who loved beauty, especially treasuring her long black hair.

When they were in love, he loved most to hug her and play with her beautiful long hair.

"Hahaha, see, Tang Tiansong, this woman cut off her three thousand strands of worry after you left the Tang Family. For years, she built a Buddhist Hall and acted like a nun, eating vegetarian and chanting Buddha’s name, ignoring me, her fiancée. The whole Tang Family laughed at me, saying I was betrothed to a nun. All this is thanks to you!"

Tang Lei laughed until he sobbed.

Everyone present wore stunned expressions.

They finally understood why Tang Lingbo always wore a mask.

Several women present stood in solemn respect for Tang Lingbo.

How many women would sacrifice their beauty to remain loyal to someone under a misunderstanding.

Tang Tiansong held Tang Lingbo’s corpse, tears flowing unchecked.

"Lingbo, I was wrong. I’m sorry. I will take you away, from now on, we’ll never be apart." With that, Tang Tiansong lifted Tang Lingbo.

"Put her down."

Tang Lei, seeing Tang Tiansong trying to take Tang Lingbo away, again tried to thwart him.

He loved Tang Lingbo as much as he hated Tang Tiansong.

He would never allow Tang Lingbo to fall into Tang Tiansong’s hands, even if only her corpse.

"Tang Lei, what else do you want, you’ve already driven her to death, you said yourself, only in death would you release her."

Tang Tiansong’s eyes were about to burst with rage.

Had it not been for Tang Lei’s aggressiveness, how could the strong-willed Tang Lingbo have committed suicide?

"I simply won’t agree, what can you do? Tang Tiansong, let me tell you, before I left, the Family Head promised me the future position of Tang Family Patriarch, unless I agree, otherwise Tang Lingbo will always belong to the Tang Family, always be my fiancée. Do you think I’d let a stray man take her corpse away?"

Tang Lei declared defiantly.

"What would it take for you to agree to hand over Lingbo’s corpse?"

Tang Tiansong shouted furiously.

"That depends on what price you’re willing to pay."

Tang Lei sneered.

"I don’t know whether this in my hand is enough to exchange for Tang Lingbo’s corpse?"

Just then, behind Tang Lei, Ye Lingyue and Di Shen entered, Ye Lingyue holding a piece of parchment.
