In the Luo family's inner courtyard, the majestic buildings look like deep castles in the night.
Luo Tian stopped for a moment in one of the most majestic lofts. In an instant, the shadows on both sides of the loft moved a few pieces of darkness, and immediately disappeared in the night.
Suddenly, a low voice came from between the attic and said: "What's the matter with Zhenger?".
Luo Tianzheng respectfully saluted the door and said, "You have something to report to you."
As soon as his words fell, the door opened automatically.
Luo Tianzheng was not surprised, and immediately stepped into the attic.
I saw an old man in a gray robe sitting in it, holding a teacup in his hand, and a book beside him. The old man was very handsome, of medium build, with a straight waist, not a bit rickety, and eagle eyes shone with gleaming light. This old man was Luo Xiangming, the head of the Luo family, sixty-six years old, one of the few masters in Meteorite City, and Gu said he was already a spiritual master.
"What is so important, let you report overnight" Luo Xiangming asked lightly.
Therefore, Luo Tianzheng briefly talked about what Luo Biao told him again.
"Oh, that kid from the Ling family can actually practice again, it's really good," Luo Xiangming responded casually, as if he didn't care too much.
"Father, it wouldn't matter if he could just cultivate again, but..." Luo Tianzheng said hesitantly.
"Just what, if you have something to say straight," Luo Xiangming raised his eyes and said.
"It's just that, Biao'er said that Ling Xiao only defeated Shuang'er with a single sword, and that he defeated Shuang'er with Biao'er, which shows the power of one sword, and I heard Biao'er say that Ling Xiao Not a profound practitioner, but at most an eighth-level martial artist. This move can defeat an intermediate-level profound practitioner and force a high-level profound practitioner to retreat. Will this..." Luo Tianzheng said clearly.
"Are you trying to say what amazing mysterious skills that Ling family kid has?" Luo Xiangming interrupted.
"Baby is exactly what he meant," Luo Tianzheng replied.
"Do you think that Ling Xiao has a green-level technique?" Luo Xiangming frowned slightly.
The profound skills of the Xuanling Continent are divided into nine major levels, namely "gray, yellow, cyan, green, blue, red, purple, brown, and black".
Luo Tianzheng remained silent, but just nodded.
"The Ling family has only one volume of the blue-level golden gun of the town clan, but the boy of the Ling family uses swordsmanship. Is it possible that the Ling family has two volumes of the blue-level mysterious skills? Junior, let the junior come out to show off, is it another chance that kid got?" Luo Xiangming guessed.
"I think it's possible. Two years ago, the elder of the Ling family confirmed that the kid couldn't rebuild his profound strength, but he is now an eighth-level martial artist. This is really intriguing," Luo Tianzheng said in deep thought.
Both of them were silent for a while, before Luo Xiangming said: "You go down first, I will deal with this matter myself."
When Luo Tian was about to leave, Luo Xiangming said again: "Shuang'er seems to be particularly concerned about that kid, let her go to Ling's house more when she has time."
Luo Tianzheng's eyes lit up and he nodded before leaving the attic.
When Luo Tianzheng went out, Luo Xiangming said indifferently: "Feng Ying, go check the situation of that boy in the Ling family, don't disturb anyone, and report to me immediately if there is a situation."
A cold voice from a corner of the attic said: "Yes, the patriarch."
…
In the basement of a quiet courtyard in the Ling family.
The family meeting had just ended, the fifth elder Ling Yan and a tall and thin old man came here for secret affairs.
The old man was actually Ling Mo, the second elder of the Ling family, and the two were brothers. They were second only to the patriarch Ling Cang in the Ling family, and even Ling Mo had more power than Ling Cang in some respect.
As the head of the three major families in Meteorite City, the Ling family is strong, but everyone knows that the Ling family is not as united as it seems, and the second elder Ling Mo and the fifth elder Ling Yan of the Ling family are the disruptors. .
Ling Mo and Ling Yan were both sons of the old family of the previous generation. Later, when the old family passed away, Ling Mo did not become the patriarch as he wished, but was instead the patriarch by Ling Cang. This matter has always made the two brothers hate in their hearts. When Ling Cang exercises the power of the patriarch, many of the two brothers carry it, and many people in the clan support the two brothers. This led to Ling Cang’s The authority of the patriarch is not so majestic.
Take Ling Zhan as an example. Originally, Ling Zhan was Ling Cang's second son, and he was once known as a generation of geniuses, but when Ling Zhan was abolished, he was actually arranged to live in the most remote courtyard of the Ling family, and there was not even a servant. This is the reason why Ling Mo and Ling Yan made bridges from it. Otherwise, as Ling Cang, they would also arrange a relatively quiet and unique home.
This shows how deep the resentment between Brother Ling Mo and Ling Cang is.
"Big brother, what do you think you should do about this?" Ling Yan asked immediately after entering the secret room.
"It depends on how anxious you are, that little bastard is just a little warrior even if he can rebuild his profound strength, what are you anxious about?" Ling Mo waved his hand and snorted coldly.
"I, am I not anxious for Kuang'er" Ling Yan said displeasedly.
"Don't worry about that, Kuang'er has already broken through the profound scholar. By the time of the family test, he will definitely win the first place. By then, it will be a sure thing for the Supreme Elder to accept Kuang'er as the closed disciple," Ling Mo said in a low voice.
"Hey, Rui'er failed to kill him a month ago and turned him over. That little bastard's life is really hard," Ling Yan sighed.
"Huh, I haven't asked you to settle this matter yet. You are so stupid. Knowing that it is impossible for the kid to rebuild his profound strength, the father and son will fend for themselves. Fortunately, the kid didn't die this time, otherwise. … Hmph, Ling Cang will never make you feel better," Ling Mo snorted coldly.
"Could it be that he would fight me hard for a trash?" Ling Yan said disapprovingly.
"He won't fight you hard, just let your grandson disappear" Ling Mo said with a bit of hatred for iron and steel, and after a pause, he said again: "Okay, you go back first, I'll take care of that little bastard There is a conclusion".
Ling Yan wanted to say something, he hesitated, and then sighed softly and left the secret room.
"Huh, want to turn over? There is no door." After Ling Yan went out, Ling Mo's eyes were full of murderous intent.
Li's house in the north of the city.
Li Guanghan watched Ling Xiao all night on the only way back to Ling's house, but Ling Xiao was nowhere to be seen. Finally, he had to give up the interception and immediately rushed back to the family to report the situation to his father.
Li Guanghan couldn't help shivering when he thought of Ling Xiao's sword attack.
Now Ling Xiao is still an eighth-level martial artist, and it seems that he needs all the profound energy to use that move. With the strength of his high-level profound practitioner, he may be able to barely block it, but it must also be seriously injured, in case Ling Xiao breaks through the profound practitioner. After that, wouldn't it make him invincible in the same rank
Thinking of this, he must try his best to get the family to get rid of this potential opponent, if it grows up for the other party, then Meteorite City will be the only one in the Ling family.
When Li Guanghan found his father Li Yuanhua to report to him, Li Yuanhua already knew everything.
Li Yuanhua said to Li Guanghan: "I know what happened in the restaurant yesterday. You don't need to worry about it. There are already arrangements in the clan. As for the marriage with the Luo family, the old fox may not be attracted to us. The Li family, you immediately go to retreat and strive to break through the profound practitioners within half a year. One year later, the three families will definitely not lag behind our Li family."
Li Guanghan stopped talking nonsense, nodded, turned around and went out.
…
The sun was shining brightly and it was noon.
In an inconspicuous inn, Ling Xiao was drinking small wine and eating small dishes, accompanied by beauties, and had no idea about everything outside.
"Come on, eat a chicken drumstick, see if you are poorly skinny, or eat a little fat to look good" Ling Xiao said, holding a chicken drumstick and putting it in Bai Yuxi's bowl.
After meditation last night and this morning, Ling Xiao's condition improved a lot, at least his face was a little more bloody.
"Thank you Master" Bai Yuxi was shy and ruddy, her bright eyes looked at the chubby chicken drumsticks, and her heart was filled with indescribable sweetness.
Last night, Bai Yuxi guarded Ling Xiao all night. In the morning, she had a high fever. Fortunately, Ling Xiao found out in time and passed a trace of profound energy. After she slept for a while, the fever had subsided.
"What's your kindness? What's the relationship between us? You are not allowed to be so kind in the future, do you know?" Ling Xiao said after taking a bite of the dish.
Listening to Ling Xiao's words so kindly, Bai Yuxi's beautiful eyes couldn't help but a faint mist appeared.
Upon seeing this, Ling Xiao panicked, and quickly comforted: "Yu Xi, what's wrong with you? Cough cough". Ling Xiao was agitated, involved in the pain, and couldn't help coughing twice.
Bai Yuxi hurriedly stood up, walked to Ling Xiao and patted his back vest and said: "Master, I'm fine, I... I'm just so touched. I thought that only my mother was the best to me in this world, but now I I found out... I found that the young master was really good to me. I really didn't intend to worry the young master."
Bai Yuxi is like a kid who has done something wrong. While carrying Ling Xiao's back vest, she explained that she was afraid that Ling Xiao would be hurt again and she would be sad.
"Silly girl, you are not only my god-sister, but also mine... My friend, I'm not good to you, who is good to you, okay, I'm fine, hurry up and eat, we have to go back, or father and mother I'll be very worried." Ling Xiao scraped Bai Yuxi's Qiongbi and said with a smile.
Bai Yuxi nodded obediently, and then returned to the seat to eat.
After the two came out of the inn, they went to the tailor shop that ordered clothes yesterday to pick up the clothes, and then they were ready to rush home.
On the way home, Ling Xiao faintly felt that someone was following behind him, but when she turned her head and looked around, she didn't find anyone, so she couldn't help cursing whether she was suspicious.
However, when the two of them just left the market intersection, danger came together.
A bitter breath came from behind, and the breath had already locked Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao felt wrong all the time, and now he has secretly guarded.
When the surprise attack came, Ling Xiao's giant sword in his hand reacted instantly.
"When" the weapon collided, Ling Xiao was knocked out instantly.
"Master!" Bai Yuxi was shocked and ran to Ling Xiao immediately.
