Hong Qi looked at Ling Xiao who was practicing in the house through the window, and couldn't help but smile with relief.
Adopting Ling Xiao back then was probably the most correct thing he did.
He left quietly and walked to the yard, looking at the stars in the sky with tears streaming down his face.
"Your son has grown up and become a man of talent. I, old beggar, have finally lived up to your trust. I only hope that you will also be safe and sound."
Ling Xiao didn't know what was happening outside the house.
Not even knowing that his parents might still be alive.
He now only wants to break through the third level of martial arts, and is using the power of the Breakthrough Pill to continuously attack the third martial arts.
After a night.
Ling Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and punched out.
"Clang!"
Thinking of the loud sound, the thick brick wall in front of me was shattered into pieces, leaving a big hole.
He could feel that the energy in his whole body had improved tremendously, including his muscles, bones, tendons and blood, which seemed to have become much stronger.
This punch has the power of a thousand catties at least!
This is the strongest power that a warrior below the third level of martial arts can exert.
"I didn't expect that it would be so easy to break through. It looks like Shanhe Martial Spirit is really extraordinary!"
Ling Xiao knew very well that although the Breakthrough Pill was effective, it was definitely not that good.
In the final analysis, his success is inseparable from Shanhe Wuhun.
When he broke through last night, every time he felt that he was about to fall short, there would always be a strange power coming from the mountain and river martial arts to help him defeat the obstacles.
Coupled with the fact that he has been suppressing for so many days without a breakthrough, it can be said that the power is on the verge of bursting out.
Release now and natural breakthroughs will be easier.
But the third level of martial arts is just the beginning!
Although Ling Xiao was excited, he also understood that at the moment, he was at most a first-line disciple like Ling Fei, Ling Feng, and Ling Tieshou.
Compared with Ling Yixue and Li Xingyun, there is still a gap.
Moreover, it is possible for someone to break through to the fourth level of martial arts at any time.
The third level to the fourth level may seem to be just the same realm, but they are vastly different.
After all, there is no comparison between true energy and Gang energy.
The power has undergone a qualitative change, and all attacks will be qualitatively improved.
It can be said that unless people with the third level of martial arts can also use Gang Qi, it is absolutely impossible to challenge the fourth level of martial arts warriors.
The showdown between Li Xingyun and Xiao Yuelang was obvious at the beginning.
"What happened?"
Hong Qi heard the loud noise and came over to take a look. He was stunned: "Son, what happened to your practice? Why did you tear down the house?"
"Grandpa, I told you that now that we have money, it doesn't matter if we don't want this house, we might as well build a new one."
The reason why Ling Xiao wanted to become stronger, apart from not wanting to be bullied, was of course also because he wanted to live a good life.
He has had enough of living in a house that leaks whenever it rains.
"You kid, even if you want to build a house, where will we live now?" Hong Qi said with a bitter smile.
"Don't be afraid. There is a rented house in Ling's family. Let's rent it for a while. It won't be too late to move back when the house here is repaired."
Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Grandpa, I'm going to find the construction team to repair our house."
After speaking, he ran out happily.
Having just broken through to the third level of martial arts, he was not afraid of anyone looking for trouble.
In other words, in fact, deep down in his heart, he really expected that someone would come to cause trouble. In that case, he could also test how strong he was now.
As soon as they left the front door of Ling's house, someone sneakily turned around and ran away in the corner.
"Senior Brother Xingyun, that guy is out."
The man arrived in a small forest, where Li Xingyun was talking to two other middle-aged men.
The strength of these two middle-aged men is similar to that of Li Rui, and they are both at the third level of martial arts.
"Okay, I understand, you two, this is one hundred taels of silver. I don't want to live, I will just kill you! After the matter is completed, I will give you the other one hundred taels."
Li Xingyun had a stern smile on his face.
"Hey, don't worry, Master Li. We brothers have always used people's money to eliminate disasters. We don't know how to do anything else, but killing people is easy!"
…
Ling Xiao came out of Ling's house, went to the market to find a civil worker, discussed building a house, and then returned to Ling's house briskly.
When passing by a small forest, he suddenly stopped.
"Friend, since you are here, why hide your head and show your tail?"
He looked at a tree not far away, his eyes sharp and cold.
"Hahaha, you're good, you can actually find us. It seems that we are not weak."
There was a sound, and two people fell from the tree.
They are all in their thirties, wearing hooded black scarves and dressed like warriors from Tianfeng City, more like thieves.
"Black scarf thief?"
Ling Xiao recognized the way these two people were dressed.
This is a group of extremely vicious thieves who usually operate around Tianfeng City. However, because the four major families in Tianfeng City are relatively powerful, they dare not enter the city easily.
But their reputation is not bad. It is said that there are six to seven hundred people in total, led by thirteen leaders.
Just because they like to cover their faces with black scarves, they are called black scarf thieves. In addition, this group of people have machete tattoos on their arms, so they are easy to identify.
"Boy, since you recognize grandpa, stop talking nonsense and take out all the money you have. I can spare your life!"
Although they took over Li Xingyun's errand, the black scarf thieves have always been greedy for money, lustful, and murderous. Of course, they are more willing to maximize their profits.
When the two of them were talking, they had already set their stances on the left and right, not giving Ling Xiao a chance to escape.
"Haha, the family previously offered a reward for killing an ordinary black scarf thief. The reward is one hundred taels of silver and ten merit points. Since you two are here, don't go back!"
Ling Xiao smiled and was calm and composed.
One hundred taels of silver was still a large sum of money to him, but merit was even more important.
Generally speaking, only warriors with level 4 or above are qualified to accept family tasks and obtain meritorious service.
Merit can not only be exchanged for things within the family, but can also enhance the family's status.
The Ling family has been doing this for thousands of years.
As long as you get 100 points of merit, you can change from a ninth-class family member to an eighth-class family member.
The ninth-level family members have no money and may be kicked out at any time, and they cannot enjoy many privileges of the Ling family.
The eighth-class family members are different. Not only do they receive regular money every month, but as long as they don't make a big mistake, they won't be kicked out. They have the status of a real Ling family member.
Ling Xiao has been a beggar since he was a child, so he really hopes to have a family that can protect him from wind and rain.
Although he suffered a lot of grievances when he came to the Ling family, he also got a lot of benefits, so he naturally refused to leave.
"Boy, you are really as arrogant as the rumors say. Kill us to receive the reward? I'm afraid you won't survive!"
Is it the same as the rumors
Ling Xiao's heart moved. The outsiders he had recently come into contact with were those from the Li family.
Could it be that this black scarf thief was actually invited by the Li family to kill him
He was already very smart, but if the other party let something slip a little, he made a rough guess.
He had known that the Li family would not give up. He was originally waiting for the Li family to go to the Ling family to cause trouble, but who knew that there was no movement at all.
Now he understands.
Probably Li Xingyun and the others did not report the real situation, but wanted to quietly ask someone to deal with them.
