"Brother Qinglan, why are you here?"
"Uncle, Yu'er misses you."
Ling'er and Xia Junyu spoke almost at the same time. Hearing their voices, Qinglan showed a gentle smile on his face.
"Yu'er, uncle misses you too." He hugged Xia Junyu who was walking towards him, touched his little head, and then looked up and gave Ling'er a reassuring look. As if to say, we are here, don't be afraid.
Ling'er smiled. She knew that no matter where she was, she was not alone. She had her family behind her.
Qinglan let go of Xia Junyu, took two steps back, and then knelt on the ground.
"I pay my respects to Your Highness and Your Majesty." As Qing Lan knelt down, the troops hovering in the air also lowered their heads and saluted.
"The Yunhai Royal Family, this is the Yunhai Royal Family's golden eagle army."
"Yes, I have only heard of it. This is the first time I have seen such a spectacular scene."
"Yunhai City is a country that stands on equal footing with the Demon Cultivation Realm and the Hidden Jun Family. This Azure Dragon is the Prime Minister and White Tiger is the General. Could this be the Prime Minister of Yunhai City, Qinglan?"
"He he he actually knelt down and called the child His Highness. Could it be... Could it be that he is the legendary prodigy who took charge of government at the age of three?"
"It should be correct. No wonder... No wonder he has such a high level of cultivation at such a young age. The title of child prodigy is not enough to match him."
"I didn't expect that the granddaughter of the head of the Ling family is actually the king of Yunhai City, who is famous all over the world. Which bastard told me that Lingxi married an unknown country bumpkin. Which country bumpkin has a throne waiting to be inherited?"
No one expected this situation.
The mother and son who were being bullied because of their family background one second ago, soared to the sky the next moment and became a person that people looked up to. This gap is really a bit big.
Ling Yuan, who hadn't finished speaking yet, was also dumbfounded at this moment. He had investigated Xia Ling'er's background and found that they were just an ordinary mother and son. What on earth was going on
"Okay, uncle, I told you that you don't have to perform the formalities, so get up." Xia Junyu raised his hand and motioned Qinglan to get up.
"Qinglan came here today to congratulate Mr. Ling for finding his granddaughter. I have prepared some small gifts, and I hope the old man will not despise them."
"Hahaha, no problem, no problem, you are a guest, come on, sit down."
Linglong was also a little confused at the moment, not knowing what was going on. How did his granddaughter become the king of Yunhai
Suddenly, a tiger roar resounded through the sky.
"It's Afeng." Bai Jingfeng is Linglong's contracted beast, a purebred white tiger.
Because the beast tribe in this world is also a strong tribe, few people can successfully make a contract. Moreover, Bai Jingfeng is a semi-divine beast. As long as the contract is successful, the strength of the contractor will increase a lot. If Bai Jingfeng is lucky enough to successfully enter the ranks of divine beasts, the contractor can also gain a lifespan increase, so the chance of a contract is even slimmer. If he hadn't accidentally helped Bai Jingfeng, he would not have been able to have such a contracted beast.
But strangely enough, he did not expect that Bai Jingfeng would choose to sign a contract with him in order to repay his kindness, and it was a master-servant contract. He was quite lucky.
As the tiger roared, a white tiger appeared in everyone's eyes.
"Afeng, why did you come out?" Afeng is what Linglong called him. He is a loner. He doesn't get close to anyone except his master Linglong. Apart from staying in the contract space, he rests in the mountains by himself and rarely appears in front of people.
Logically speaking, with such a big scene today and given Afeng's personality, he should have stayed away, so why did he come out
Bai Jingfeng didn't say anything, but walked straight to Qinglan and said, "Your Highness, I am here to see you, Prime Minister."
Now, Linglong was confused.
What did Afeng just say
Subordinates
Qing Lan nodded, "Get up, I know you have done a lot for protecting the old man over the years."
"This is my duty, I dare not take credit for it."
"This is the little prince and the king. You are here to meet them."
When Bai Jingfeng left Yunhai City, Xia Ling'er was not yet born, so he had never seen her.
He never expected that today he would not only have the honor of meeting the Prime Minister, but also the King and the Little Prince. This really made him excited.
"I am Bai Jingfeng, your Majesty, and your Highness." His voice was sonorous, and tears even welled up in his tiger eyes. His feelings at the moment could no longer be expressed in words.
He hasn't seen his relatives and companions for many years since he left Yunhai.
"Are you A Meng's father?" Ling'er stepped forward and asked.
"To answer your Majesty, yes, Ah Meng is still a child. If there is anything that has offended your Majesty and the little prince, I hope your Majesty will forgive me." Bai Jingfeng's personality is somewhat similar to Linglong's. They are both straightforward and don't beat around the bush when they think about something. When he heard the king mention his son, he subconsciously thought that his son was naughty and got into trouble, so he quickly begged for mercy.
Ling'er smiled and shook her head, "Ah Meng is a sensible child. The reason why I was able to recognize my grandfather was that Ah Meng helped a lot."
He reached out and touched Baihu's head, "You have a good son."
Hearing this, Bai Jingfeng became even more excited.
What an honor it is that the king actually praised his son in person.
I didn't expect that Ah Meng, that stinky boy, would have such a shitty luck, and accidentally helped the king. Hahahaha...
"Ah... Afeng... you... them... what's going on?" Linglong seemed to understand something, but didn't quite understand. He walked in front of Bai Jingfeng with a confused look on his face, and even stuttered when he spoke.
"Master, I'm sorry, I lied to you. In fact, our meeting was arranged by the late king. When Madam Lingxi and the late king were in love, he had to hide his identity due to some factors. As a result, people misunderstood and your relationship with your daughter deteriorated. Although Madam Lingxi left in anger, she still missed you as a father. So the late king arranged our meeting. But master, it's true that Jingfeng likes you. You have been very good to me over the years. Although we signed a master-servant contract, you have never treated me as a servant and rarely interfered with my freedom. You are a good master, and Jingfeng is willing to follow you all his life."
"So... So that's how it is... So..." It turned out that the luck he thought was given to him was given to him by his daughter.
After knowing this, his guilt towards Lingxi became even deeper.
"Grandpa, Mom is your daughter. No matter what she does, it is her duty. Just understand it. We are all a family. Don't be so picky. You have also paid a lot for us. Could it be that everything Grandpa does for Ling'er in the future is just for Ling'er to repay you?"
"No, no, why would grandpa expect you to repay him? Grandpa wouldn't think like that." This sentence made Linglong anxious and he hurried to explain.
Seeing Linglong's anxious look, Ling'er covered her mouth and smiled.
Only after Ling'er smiled did Linglong react.
"You little girl, you actually tease grandpa, it's really... I really can't do anything about you." My granddaughter should be spoiled no matter what. But who did she inherit this sinister character from
In the Demon Palace, ever since the Demon Lord left, Yao Lao has been extremely anxious, pacing back and forth on the ground without stopping.
The servants who were waiting on the side were all worried for him. They didn't know what the old master was thinking about that made him so upset.
"It's been so long, I don't know if that brat has arrived yet."
"According to the time, he should be here soon."
"I just don't know if he will be obedient and do what I, the old man, tell him to do."
"Oh, I don't know how my precious grandson is doing over there, and whether he is being bullied."
"I wonder if Ling girl has found my eldest grandson. It makes me anxious."
"That brat, if he dares not listen to me, I will... I will go on a hunger strike when I get back!"
"Although that guy always keeps an eye on me, he is still trustworthy."
"Since he has already promised, it shouldn't be that he goes back on his word."
"Well, when this brat comes back, I can see my precious grandson, hahahaha..."
The servants just watched their old master walking back and forth, talking to himself, frowning and laughing, and they were very worried.
I don't know what happened to the old master. Could it be that his condition has worsened and he has died
"Old Master, do you... do you feel unwell?" Servant No. 1 couldn't help but stepped forward to ask.
"It's okay, it's okay, old man, I'm fine, go away."
"Are you sure you're okay?" He doesn't look like a normal person at all.
"Come on, come on, come closer and take a good look. Look carefully. I don't look unwell at all. I look so lively and energetic. I feel like I have never felt better."
"... ... "That's right, it's because you are too energetic that I think you are abnormal.
In the past, after the Demon Lord locked you up, you lost your appetite and were like an eggplant hit by frost. Your current state is really abnormal.
"Go away, all of you, leave now, and don't disturb me, an old man, from thinking about life."
"... ... "
Faced with this erratic old master, the servants felt helpless and could only retreat silently. There was no other way, after all, he was the master.
But they had only taken two steps when they heard it again.
"Come back, come back, come back."
"... ... "Such unpredictable mood is really torturous.
"Do you think my disciple can bring his wife back?"
"... ... "This seems to be a fatal question.
It was well known that their master was a man who did not like women. For so many years, he had not even had a female servant. A wife? Hehehe... If he really brought one back, it would be a blessing for the sun to rise from the west.
You said you can’t get it back
It is estimated that they would be beaten to death by the old lord on the spot.
When Your Excellency left, the old master gave you so many warnings and instructions that if he couldn't get you back, he would cry, make a fuss, and even commit suicide.
So, how should they answer this question
Sweating profusely!
"What if that girl doesn't agree and doesn't like that boy?"
That girl doesn't look easy to deal with. Besides, his apprentice is an ice cube. Apart from a pretty face, he doesn't seem to have any other advantages. Can he pick up Ling girl
"By the way, do you know what girls generally like?"
Hmm? That’s an easy question to answer.
"Gold and silver jewelry." The first servant answered.
"Jade and jewelry." Servant No. 2 answered.
"An anti-aging and beauty elixir." Servant No. 3 answered.
The old master suddenly realized and slapped his thigh, "Okay, go to the warehouse quickly, pack up all the things that girls like, and send them to Ling girl in the name of my apprentice. Just say this is... this is... this is..."
"It's a betrothal gift." Servant No. 1 answered quickly.
"Yes, just say it's a betrothal gift and send it over." The old man thought this was a good idea. If Ling girl is happy, she might agree.
Then, he not only solved the single problem of his unfilial apprentice, but also got a grandson for free.
Ha ha ha ha... .
It makes me happy just thinking about it.
"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and do it. This must be done for me. If there is any mistake, I will break your legs. Go!"
"Yes, old lord, I'll go right away."
... ...
After learning Ling'er's identity, the smiles on everyone's faces deepened.
Not only is he a master of alchemy, but he is also the king of Yunhai City. This means he has both strength and background. If you don't curry favor with him now, when will you
"I never thought that this girl would become the ruler of a country at such a young age. She also has such talent. Her future is limitless."
"Yeah, there's no comparison between this guy and others."
"Although I have never seen the child's father, just by looking at the child's appearance, it is not difficult to guess what kind of remarkable person her father is. So, Miss Lingxi has a very good eye."
How can a mere Lan family be compared with Yunhai City? In the past, everyone said Lingxi was stupid, giving up wealth and glory to follow a country bumpkin. Now, the plot has reversed, and everyone's comments have also reversed.
Only Lingyuan's expression looked like he wanted to eat a pile of shit. He couldn't say how uncomfortable he was, which was really disgusting.
I originally planned to use Ling'er's background to prevent her from becoming the young master of the Ling family, but now, this approach is no longer feasible.
"Look, isn't that Miss Lingxi?"
At this time, someone shouted.
Everyone immediately looked in the direction the man pointed, and a beautiful woman came into their sight.
She was wearing a plain blue dress, with no complicated decorations on her head except for an ordinary jade hairpin. Although Lingxi was no longer young, her charm was still as good as before.
The girl's immaturity has faded, and she has become more gentle and charming.
Lingxi was a famous beauty back then. Even after not seeing her for many years, she is still as charming as ever.
"Ms. Lingxi."
"It's really Miss Lingxi."
"It is said that it was the young lady who cured Miss Lingxi's stubborn illness. Now it seems to be true."
"Young lady is indeed a master of alchemy. From now on, the Ling family will be very powerful."
"Mother."
"grandmother."
Ling'er and Xia Junyu spoke almost at the same time.
Lingxi smiled and nodded at them, then slowly walked over to them.
"This is my daughter, this is my grandson. If anyone dares to bully them, I will be the first to say no."
Although Lingxi did not see what happened with her own eyes, the maid had already recounted it to her.
Her daughter had grown up and was able to take care of herself, but she still wanted to protect her.
"I pay my respects to the late Queen."
"After so many years, Qinglan, you are still the same, but I have grown old." Seeing the people and things of the past again, Lingxi felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
It seems like nothing has changed, yet everything has changed.
"You are still the same, not old."
"And me, and me, late queen, do you still remember me?" Feng Ling jumped off the carriage at some point, hopped in front of Lingxi, and said happily.
"You are... the little firebird."
Hearing this, Feng Ling pouted unhappily.
"I am a phoenix, a phoenix."
When he met Lingxi, he had just hatched and could not transform into a human form. He also did not have good control over his fire, so he often set the house on fire.
"I know, you are Xiao Feng Ling."
"Yeah, yes, I am Xiao Feng Ling, but I am grown up now. Look, am I not handsome?"
"By the way, who just said that my master is not good for having no family background? Come on, let me stand up for you?"
Feng Ling looked around and found the spiritual source hidden among the crowd.
"Oh, it's you. Come here." Feng Ling flew to Ling Yuan, grabbed him, and brought him to Ling'er.
"You, you, you, what do you want to do? I am from the Ling family, and I am your master's uncle!"
"Oh, you still have the nerve to say that you are my uncle. Didn't you capture my little prince? Didn't you slander my master? What kind of uncle are you?"
"You... you you you..."
"What's wrong with me? My master is the best in the world, isn't he?"
"So what if she is the first one? She gave birth to a child out of wedlock, and the father of the child is unknown. No matter how powerful she is, she still gave birth to a fatherless wild child."
Lingyuan was in a hurry, so he spoke without thinking.
"Shut up." Feng Ling said angrily.
"Lingyuan, you are so outrageous." Linglong widened his eyes.
For a moment, everyone's heart suddenly rose to their throat. After all, in this situation, daring to say such words is obviously seeking death...
Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and a cold laugh was heard in the void.
"Oh."
