It was just a character, but it felt like a mountain pressing down on their heads. For a moment, everyone felt that the air around them had become thinner, and a feeling of suffocation came over them.
What kind of cultivation can bring such great pressure to people
Everyone present, including Linglong, felt pressure to varying degrees.
Looking at the suddenly gloomy weather, Xia Junyu's face became solemn.
"Whoever dares to bully me is really brave." The deep voice, like a cello, made me unconsciously quiet down the moment it fell into my ears. At that moment, it seemed that all the sounds in the world disappeared, and my ears were completely surrounded by this sound, no longer allowing any impurities.
Just by hearing the voice, it is hard to imagine how stunning and charming the owner of the voice must be.
A man in black robes fluttered, silver hair entangled, and he came in the air. He was surrounded by clouds and mist, exuding a strong kingly demeanor. It seemed that every step he took was a sign of dominance.
"Silver hair, red eyes, these... these are the characteristics of the Nine Nether Demon Lord."
"What, Nine Nether Demon Lord? Hasn't Nine Nether Demon Lord disappeared for many years?"
"You are ignorant of this. Jiuyou Demon Lord has returned for quite some time. During his absence, the Demon King took the opportunity to install his own forces and worked hard for many years. Unexpectedly, after Jiuyou Demon Lord returned, it took less than half a year to wipe out all of the Demon King's forces. It is said that Jiuyou Demon Lord's strength is unfathomable."
"But this Nine Nether Demon Lord is not an ordinary person. It is said that he is aloof and arrogant, and never attends any banquet invitations. Why did he come to the Ling family today?"
"Haven't you heard about the relationship between the Demon Lord and Yunhai City?"
"What's the relationship?"
"It is said that this is the secret of the demon clan, I..." I wanted to say something, but suddenly I felt a cold gaze, my hair stood on end immediately, and I closed my mouth.
Whether it is the Nine Nether Demon Lord or Yunhai City, they are forces that he cannot afford to offend. Trouble comes from the mouth, so the less you say, the less mistakes you make.
"Why don't you say anything? Keep going."
... ...
In the yard of Demon Lord Luo Ling's house, he raised his eyes and met a familiar gaze. Their eyes met, and both of them were full of inquiry.
This man..
This child...
Demon Lord and Xia Junyu had this doubt in their minds almost at the same time.
After staring at each other for a while, the Demon Lord moved his gaze slightly upwards, and a woman was reflected in his eyes.
The moment he saw Xia Ling'er, some unfamiliar fragments flashed through the Demon Lord's mind.
A touching scene of a man and a woman with ears.
The man looked very much like him, except for the color of his eyes. And the woman's face actually merged with the woman in front of him.
This was a dream he had been having for a long time. In his previous dreams, he could never see the woman's face clearly, but he didn't expect that today he could see it clearly.
"Have we met before?" he asked subconsciously.
Before Ling'er could say anything, the Demon Lord's sight was blocked by a small figure.
"Man, isn't your way of chatting up too old-fashioned?" For some reason, the moment he saw this man, an inexplicable fear flashed through Xia Junyu's heart, but despite this, he still had to stand up bravely to protect his mother.
Don't think that you can seduce your mother just because you have a good-looking face. His mother belongs to him alone, and no one can take her away from him.
Xia Junyu's sudden appearance successfully diverted the Demon Lord's attention to him again.
This child could actually hear his voice transmission. And his little face looked very familiar. I felt like I had seen it somewhere before.
This mother and son gave him too many doubts, but in his memory, he could not remember having any intersection with them.
What is going on
Linglong felt anxious when he saw that the Demon Lord's eyes were always wandering between his granddaughter and his precious great-grandson.
It is said that this demon lord has an unpredictable temper. If his granddaughter accidentally offends him, the consequences will be...
Thinking of this, Linglong immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Xia Junyu, successfully blocking the Demon Lord's sight.
"I didn't know that the Nine Nether Demon Lord was coming. I'm sorry for not welcoming you from afar. Please forgive me."
Demon Lord
When Xia Junyu heard these two words, his expression changed immediately.
If he remembered correctly, the reason why he took his mother away from Yunhai City was because of this Demon Lord.
This man turned out to be her mother's fiancé, her stepfather whom she had never met
What is he here for
Is it because you didn’t find your mother in Yunhai City that you followed her here
Xia Linger also raised her eyebrows slightly at this moment. Jiuyou Demon Lord, fiancé...
"Your Majesty the Demon, you must be here to look for Xin'er. Xin'er was locked up in the yard because she made some mistakes. If you were her, I can take you there after I have dealt with things here." Lingyuan said with a flattering look on his face.
As a father, he knew that Ling Xin liked Jiuyou Demon Lord. He sent him out this time to get closer to the Demon Lord.
He hadn't had time to ask when Lingxin came back this time. But Xin'er had always been reliable, and the Demon Lord had come in person, so he thought the matter should be settled.
If he had the Nine Nether Demon Lord as his son-in-law, his status would be much higher. In a sense, the status of the Demon Cultivation World was higher than that of Yunhai City.
At that time, Xia Ling'er's background was nothing.
However, the Demon Lord ignored Lingyuan at all. The next moment, he did something that no one expected. He bent down towards Linglong and said, "Grandpa, please excuse me."
Ling'er: Hmm
Xia Junyu:!
Everyone: Shocked!
Lingyuan was also dumbfounded. What the hell was this? Even if he was following Xin'er's lead, he should have called him grandpa. How did he become grandpa? A bad premonition slowly came to his mind.
Linglong: Confused?!
Wait a minute, who can come and explain to him what is going on
He was really confused by the word "grandpa".
"Demon... Demon Lord... not... grandson... No, oh, that's not right... Demon Lord, what do you mean by this?" Could it be that his ears haven't been working well recently and he's hallucinating
But it can’t be that my eyes also don’t work.
The Demon Lord actually bent down and saluted him.
The Demon Lord did not explain, but flashed in front of Ling'er, pulled Ling'er into his arms, and said: "My woman, my son."
He seemed to understand, but his eyes, which had been wide open in surprise, now doubled in size.
The Demon Lord is Xia Ling'er's man!
Xia Junyu's father!
Oh my god!
How can people survive like this
Did Xia Ling'er save the Milky Way in her previous life? She's so lucky.
She was reborn into a family that needed to inherit the throne, and found the best man in the world!
"This... this... Ling girl... this..." Ling Long didn't know how to organize his words at this moment. It turned out that this girl's partner was the Nine Nether Demon Lord.
When they asked her before, they saw that she was evasive and seemed unwilling to talk about it. They thought that the other party had a bad family background or was no longer alive, so everyone subconsciously stopped asking. I really didn't expect that this person was actually the Nine Nether Demon Lord!
"Girl, why didn't you say it earlier?" At this point, Linglong could only say this.
Ling'er, who was caught in the crossfire for no reason, wanted to explain something, but suddenly found that she seemed unable to speak.
Her eyes turned and glared at the man beside her, and her meaning was very clear: What do you want to do
The corners of the demon's mouth curled up slightly, "Don't be shy."
Ling'er glared: Be considerate of your sister, if you have the guts, untie me and let me talk, I will beat you to death!
"My lady, don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything. I will protect you."
"... ... "
"Who said that my son's father is unknown?" His cold eyes swept through everyone and finally landed on Lingyuan, "It must be you."
Lingyuan was trembling at this moment.
What is going on here
Shouldn’t the Demon Lord be here to find Xin’er
Why did he become the man of that wild girl? Things shouldn't have turned out this way. What went wrong
The Demon Lord's gaze was like the sharpest knife in the world. He just stared at him without doing anything, but he felt as if he was being tortured to death. He was so scared that he pissed himself!
"Father, father, save me, father." He rolled and crawled to hide behind the spirit dragon, his body trembling.
After all, he is his son. Linglong closed his eyes and said, "I declare that from today on, Lingyuan will be deprived of all his rights in the Ling family. Demon Lord, please let him go for my sake." If Demon Lord wants to bypass Lingyuan, Linglong must first punish him to show his sincerity.
"Grandpa has the final say."
"Okay, since there are no more problems, let's begin the ceremony." said the Great Elder.
Linglong nodded, and everyone present had no objection at this moment.
Even Elder Lan Yanqing didn't dare to speak at this moment.
One is the King of Yunhai City, the other is the Demon Lord of the Demon Cultivation World. Ha, who the hell dares to speak? Who can afford to offend them
If she had revealed her cards earlier, would all this mess have happened
Lan Yanqing felt that this girl did it on purpose, deliberately waiting to see these old guys make a fool of themselves. She was too scheming.
I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse to put the future of the Ling family in the hands of such a person.
The ceremony began, and the great elder Linglan personally opened the gate of the ancestral temple. Linglong stepped forward and took Ling'er into the ancestral temple.
The Demon Lord tactfully let her go.
Ling'er still couldn't speak at this moment, but in order not to worry her relatives, she did not resist, but obediently followed Linglong into the ancestral temple.
After all, this man did not show any malice, and he did not use any tricks, but he gave her an invisible pressure.
He is very strong, this is the only thing she knows about him at present.
So even if she wanted to resist, it would probably be useless. She might even end up getting her grandpa and mother into trouble, so she should just forget it...
"Child, kowtow to the ancestors. Then drop your blood on this incense burner, and you will officially enter the ancestral temple."
Ling'er nodded, then bent down and knelt. But the moment she knelt down, a golden light suddenly shone from her body.
The source of the light circle was the ancestral tablets. The light circle was soft but very resilient, as if preventing her from kneeling down.
"This..." Linglong was also puzzled by the scene in front of him. However, it was clear that the child was not allowed to kneel.
"In that case, girl, just bow." This child is different after all, after all, she came out of the misty forest.
Ling'er followed Linglong's instructions and bent her body as a sign of worship. Then she took two steps forward and pricked her finger. A drop of blood slid from her fingertips and sank into the incense burner.
"Well, now the ceremony is complete. From today on, you are the new generation young master of the Ling family, and the only recognized heir."
This ceremony is really simple, Ling'er thought.
After Ling'er and others left the ancestral temple, the incense burner emitted a faint purple light.
"Finally, I'm back..."
The ethereal sound echoed in this silent room, like a sigh, like joy, like melancholy. However, no one noticed.
Outside the ancestral temple, Feng Ling was in a daze at the moment. It was really not his fault. The scene that just happened was too... unreal.
He reached out and tugged at the robe of Qinglan, who was standing in front of him.
Qinglan turned around and looked at him, "What's wrong?" Her tone was calm, without any anger in it.
"Prime Minister, the man just now is really the master's..." He was too embarrassed to say the rest of the words.
"Well, go ask your master yourself." He didn't know what to say because he didn't know either.
However, Qinglan's face was still gentle and calm, and he didn't look confused at all. His look gave Feng Ling the illusion that his question was answered. Although Qinglan said so, it was clear from his expression that it was all true.
His owner actually had a dog outside secretly without his knowledge!
So sad.
But if you think about it carefully, this is a good idea. As long as the owner likes it, the fact that he didn't know about it in advance doesn't seem to be that important. It's just that he feels a little unbalanced.
But he couldn't see clearly what the man looked like.
For some reason, every time he looked closely at the man's face, it was always obscured by a cloud of mist. Could it be that the Nine Nether Demon Lord looked a little shabby, so he cast this kind of magic
"Prime Minister, did you see the man's face clearly? What does he look like?"
"good."
Hearing Qing Lan say this, Feng Ling felt relieved. He didn't want his master to find an ugly man as her husband.
But since this demon king is good-looking, why does he cover his face with a cloud of mist? This is really, quite strange.
When Feng Ling wasn't paying attention, Qing Lan looked at the Demon Lord again. The scene he saw was exactly the same as Feng Ling's, also a cloud of fog.
He secretly cast a spell to try to dispel the fog, but it was completely useless.
Qinglan's thinking is not as simple as Fengling's. He would not think that the fog is to cover up the shame. There must be some secret hidden in this Demon Lord.
What will it be...
"The ceremony is over."
The ceremony of Ling'er entering the ancestral temple was completed. Linglan looked at Ling'er who stepped out of the threshold of the ancestral temple and shouted something, which was a kind of announcement.
"Everyone from the Ling family, greets the young master." The moment Ling'er came out, the younger generations of the Ling family knelt on the ground.
"Get up." In fact, Ling'er was not very interested in the position of the young master of the Ling family.
"Goddaughter, congratulations." Liu Chu also smiled and stepped forward to congratulate. He was a casual person who was not afraid of power, so his attitude would not change because of Ling'er's identity. Whether she was a descendant of the mountains or a royal family, to him, she was just a child.
Ling'er smiled and shook her head, "I'm the same as you, with a free and easy personality. This may be a good thing for others, but for me, it's just an extra trouble." Then she turned to Linglong, "Grandpa, I actually don't want to..." Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Linglong.
"Girl, I'm sorry for you. This is not a gift, but a burden. Grandpa is old, and there are these troublesome things at home. Please take pity on me, an old man, and don't postpone it."
I have to say that Linglong is very smart. Before Ling'er could say no, he took the initiative. He was already playing the victim like this, what else could Ling'er say? Are all the old people nowadays so cunning
"Okay, but let me make it clear in advance that I can't manage too many things in the Ling family, nor can I stay in the Ling family for a long time. During my absence, all matters of the Ling family, big or small, will be taken care of by Uncle Qing." Ling Qing was about to refuse when she heard it, "Uncle, you have to feel sorry for me, I still have Yunhai City to take care of."
This is really a good pair of grandfather and grandson, they use the same method. Lingqing touched his nose helplessly, what else can he do...
When Shushu in the space heard Ling'er's words, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and secretly complained: If you are lazy, just say you are lazy, why do you have to use Yunhai City as an excuse? How long have you left Yunhai City to your son, and I haven't seen you take care of it.
Ling'er's eyes turned and suddenly caught sight of the beautiful and annoying face, then she walked straight towards the man.
