THE LING TIAN LEGEND

THE LING TIAN LEGEND
episodes 291-300


After Ling Tian reminded them to make sure that they were not seen by anyone, he disappeared into the forest.


Shui QianRou looked at the newly dug ground with a reluctant gaze as he thought to himself, This is where my closest comrades are. Too bad. His face was filled with a complicated expression. As he watched Ling Tian leave, he returned to his usual calm self. From the point when she stared at the newly dug ground until Ling Tian left, Shui QianRou did not even glance at her.


As for Ling Tian, he dashed back to the Ling residence quickly. While he was very confident Ling Chen consumed the Great Cycle Pellet, Ling Tian still felt worry in his heart. Hoping that he could quickly watch Ling Chen greatly improve, Ling Tian accelerated even further.


Suddenly, a sentence appeared in his head, “. Are you really going to be so heartless? ”


Very in love? Ling Tian shook his head as a grin appeared on his lips. Becoming one with a sword with a radiating killing intent, the splendor of a sword that wanted to take its life! If it could be considered very loving, wouldn't this young noble be the saint of love?


Then, the appearances of Ling Chen and Yu BingYan appeared in his heart and Ling Tian immediately felt a sense of warmth. I have to respect the people in front of me. Even if she is the most beautiful rose, I still have to be careful with her durians!


While Ling Tian had killed two elder Yu on his way out, he did not feel the slightest bit of guilt in his actions. To know about Shui QianRou's scheme and save his father from danger, if he had to kill two elders of Yu whom he was not familiar with, it was not worth mentioning. Even if he had to kill Yu ManTian, he would do it mercilessly! Furthermore, with the Yu Family's actions getting bigger, who knew what kind of hidden plan they had? From the way Yu ZhanFeng and Yu ZhanYun sneaked silently into the Sky Bearing, it was clear that the Yu Family was not detached from worldly affairs as seen on the surface!


It might be unavoidable for us to fight!


With his dense inner qi to support him, Ling Tian quickly crossed a distance of several hundred miles.


In the small courtyard in the Ling residence, two women were talking.


“Saudari Chen, when do you think Tian’ge will return? I really want to tell him about my body condition!” Yu BingYan said with a bright smile as she spun around inside the room. Despite cultivating the silk that Ling Tian had given him earlier, his illness would still flare up from time to time. After consuming the Great Cycle Pellet, Yu BingYan could clearly feel that her body was much better than usual, filled with energy and filled with warmth and comfort. The heavenly Black Negative Meridians that had haunted him for decades and the coldness he felt at all times, especially the fact that his illness had been churning more often recently, were, it cannot be felt at all today. He felt as if his body was as light as a feather and he could fly into the sky. At that moment,


A healthy red color and redness could finally be seen on her normally pale face, making her look very healthy and even prettier.


Ling Chen watched him with a smile and an expression of satisfaction could be seen in his eyes. At the same time, a warm jade color was visible on his normally bright face. If Ling Chen's ordinary appearance could be said to be like transparent ice, his current appearance was like warm snow jade.


As long as one had sharp eyesight, he would definitely be able to tell that Ling Chen had changed a lot in these short few hours.


“No need to worry sister Yu, young nobles will be back soon.” Ling Chen teased, “When the young noble returns and notices that sister Yan looks like a blooming peony, the first thing she will definitely do is give you a kiss on the cheek.”


Yu BingYan's face reddened as she said while snorting, “He dared?! If he dares to do it, I will... I will..”.


Ling Chen then interjected, “If he dares to do so, you will let him kiss you twice. Mmm, maybe you even let her kiss somewhere else. After all, young nobles are the saviors of your life! Am I right! Ha ha ha!”


Yu BingYan's face reddened as she was completely embarrassed, chasing after Ling Chen to hit her. Ling Chen then laughed as he avoided Yu BingYan, the two women making a fuss in the small courtyard.


As if she suddenly thought of something, Yu BingYan sighed and said, “Sister Chen, may I ask you something?”


Ling Chen looked at Yu BingYan with a strange look as he heard her question. Seeing the mischievous and nosy look of Yu BingYan, Ling Chen inevitably had to be careful as he asked, “What do you want to ask?”


Yu BingYan suddenly giggled and whispered on Ling Chen's lips, “Saudari Chen, I always hear you cry at night.... tell me the truth,” Yu BingYan blinked her eyes, “does this really hurt? Is it very sad?”


“Aiyah!” Ling Chen covered his face with his hands even his neck started to turn red. After setting his foot on the ground, he said, “You ... shit, what are you talking about?” Ling Chen's shame could not be hidden. Who would have thought this girl would hear me. What should I do?


“But ...” Yu BingYan said with a thoughtful gaze, “Your crying sounds very... strange... Does Tian’ge bully you?”.


Ling Chen quickly covered his mouth with his entire body heating up. Standing up, he quickly caught Yu BingYan and started tickling her in the armpits, “Who asked you to say nonsense! Fucking girl.. When Tian’ge returns, I will ask him to bully you as well!”


Yu BingYan avoided it while laughing, “I didn't eavesdrop on you... hehehe..... Who asked you to cry that hard? Hehehe... The entire Ling residence can definitely hear you.. AHHH... mercy!”


“Who asked you to keep talking!” Ling Chen started to worry. How could Yu BingYan be his opponent? Moments later, he did not even have the strength to laugh as he lay on the floor and begged for mercy while panting.


“Mmm? Why so noisy?” Ling Tian's clear voice rang out as he stepped onto the page, “What's so funny? Let me get into the secret too. ”


The two women never imagined that Ling Tian would suddenly return. In shock, they quickly broke away from each other with both of their faces red.


The moment Ling Tian saw them, blood almost gushed out from his nose. The weather was currently clear and the two women had just consumed the Great Cyclic Pellet. Both of them were filled with positive energy, and their clothes were rather thin. After one round of teasing each other, their clothes were already in a mess with their messy hair. While Ling Chen's snow-white superior was in a mess, he did not reveal himself. However, Yu BingYan's shirt was almost completely loosened with several buttons removed and her collar wide open. At the same time, her snow-white underwear had also slid down, and both worlds balls were seen standing proudly. Compared to Shui QianRou's surging waves, it was not inferior in the least!


Who would have thought that he would be greeted with such a beautiful sight after rushing back? Ling Tian immediately sighed in his heart, Heaven does reward the diligent. What a beautiful sight.


However, the girl Yu BingYan did not even know that Ling Tian was having fun. Seeing Ling Tian return, he was suddenly filled with an unknown source of energy as he leaped towards Ling Tian while laughing, “We are talking about Ling Chen's sister. Hahaha, that's too funny. ”


As he jumped, his chest also began to jump with him. As he laughed, it began to tremble along with his laughter as well. Ling Tian felt his mind go blank as hot blood rose to his head. He then could not help but extend his hand.


Ling Chen lowered his reddened head, but a mischievous smile was seen on his face.


Yu BingYan was still wondering why Ling Chen had not tried to stop her but she suddenly felt a pair of hands landing on the chest shrine of a woman. His body then could not help but freeze in place as he could no longer move. Then, a look of disbelief could be seen in his eyes as he slowly lowered his eyes to look at her.


He soon realized that his shirt was detached with a pair of hands gently caressing the mountain he was proud of. From time to time, they would even be formed into two different shapes … To think that he would actually let Ling Tian do as he wished while standing there motionlessly.


His eyes instantly widened as his mind went blank and he did not even know what he was thinking. A moment later, he finally regained his senses from the daze and a loud scream broke the silence. Yu BingYan then anxiously brushed off Ling Tian's hand and turned around to immediately tidy up her clothes. Her face was as red as cooked shrimp as she felt a wave of sweetness, fear, and grievance. Suddenly, tears began to flow from her cheeks.


Ling Chen was already holding his side as he laughed. Walking over to Yu BingYan, she whispered in her ear, “Didn't the younger sister wait for Tian’gemu back and give you a kiss? Why are you embarrassed now?”


Yu BingYan rolled her teary eyes at Ling Chen and lamented, “Who wants her to kiss me? I don't care!”


Ling Tian was still enjoying the comfort felt in his hands as he was still confused. He only felt as if he was holding a cotton ball in his hand, with a hardness in softness with a frightening chewy texture. However, he was actually forced to leave that sacred base! Therefore, he could not help but be disappointed. However, after hearing Yu BingYan's whining voice, she knew that she was doing something wrong.


Ling Chen rolled his eyes towards Ling Tian and looked at him, gesturing for him to comfort Yu BingYan. He then left secretly.


Ling Tian extended his hand and placed it on Yu BingYan's shoulder. Yu BingYan's back was still facing him and she immediately raised her hand. Flicking his legs, he covered his face with his hands and charged outwards.


With his quick reflexes, Ling Tian caught his waist, and Yu BingYan sent a fist to Ling Tian, hitting his chest. At the same time, he lamented, “Let go of me! Bad guy! I'll beat you to death!”


Ling Tian chuckled as a thought suddenly appeared in his heart. Flipping his face, Ling Tian could see his face reddened by the dazzling and alluring tears. He then lowered his head and kissed her trembling lips.


Before Yu BingYan could even resist or resist, she felt her lips closed. His entire head then jolted as if his world had collapsed and his heart was completely empty. He then felt a mystical feeling as a slippery tongue slipped into his mouth like an agile snake.


He immediately regained his senses from the daze as his body began to struggle, wanting to struggle free from Ling Tian's embrace. At the same time, he started slapping his back but to no avail. Therefore, he tried to push his chest but felt as if he was pushing against a concrete wall that was unwilling to move. Furthermore, his body was completely tied up in Ling Tian's embrace.


292


A strange feeling then filled his heart and Yu BingYan slowly stopped struggling. He felt as if an electric wave was transmitted from the touch of their lips, as his soul was shaken and his body became light. His jade arm also involuntarily wrapped around Ling Tian's neck with his eyes tightly shut and a soft groan sounded. At the same time, he was completely unaware that a pair of despicable hands had swum into his clothes, playing with all the holy places in his body.


Their lips finally parted and Yu BingYan gasped for breath, with a red face and blurred eyes. He lay in Ling Tian's arms like a pile of mud with his head buried in Ling Tian's chest. His entire body had no strength and he looked like he was under Ling Tian's full power.


 rose in Ling Tian's heart as he bowed and carried her. As if she realized something, Yu BingYan felt as if she had no sense of objection but muttered involuntarily, “Tian’ge, do not ... do not ... my illness has not healed ..”


Ling Tian suddenly stopped all his actions as he stood there in a daze. A while later, he released Yu BingYan and took a step back, pinching his thigh with all his strength. Sensing the wave of pain attacking him, Ling Tian immediately felt himself awaken. Looking at Yu BingYan who was completely flushed and at her full compassion, Ling Tian felt grateful as the remaining fear crept into his heart.


He suddenly recalled that Yu BingYan was still suffering from the heavenly Black Negative Meridians! If he were to engage in a male-female relationship with Ling Tian without the root of his illness being healed, his final positive energy would definitely be depleted and his body crushed on the spot.


Yu BingYan was still in a drunken state as she felt the man she loved leaving her embrace. Therefore, he could not help but open his eyes in confusion as he saw Ling Tian looking at him with a gentle face of affection. He immediately understood what he was thinking and said gently, “Tian’ge, you ... no matter what you want to do to Yan’er, Yan’er willing .. Yan’er Saying that, he lowered his head in embarrassment.


Ling Tian sighed and took two steps forward, hugging him. At the same time, he only felt love and affection in his heart, void of all forms . Rubbing her hair gently, Ling Tian said gently, “Yan’er, you are still sick and it is not wise for you to participate in the man-woman relationship. We both love each other and we will have many opportunities in the future. I will definitely cure your illness properly and make you a full woman again. Yaner, trust me.”


Yu BingYan's petite body was still curled up in Ling Tian's arms as she nodded her head and leaned against Ling Tian's chest. Yu BingYan could feel a strong sense of security from leaning on Ling Tian's sturdy chest. At the same time, he felt comfort, warmth, and satisfaction. It was as if he was leaning on a high mountain peak that had existed since ancient times, capable of obstructing and rain or wind in the world! At the same time, he also felt as if he was in a cozy and warm spring, capable of wiping out all his fatigue and sadness. So, he could not help but close his eyes in satisfaction.


With the Great Cyclic Pellet, Ling Tian once again ignited Yu BingYan's long-dead hope. From the changes of his body, Yu BingYan could clearly feel that the Great Cyclic Pellet was definitely the best medicine to deal with his illness. After consuming it, he felt that his vitality had recovered to the level of a normal individual. If such a pill could be consumed for a long period of time, even if it was unable to cure his heavenly Black Negative Meridian, his life would definitely be preserved.


However, if curing his heavenly Black Negative Meridian was an easy affair, Ling Tian would not be too frustrated about the matter. Other than Yu BingYan who looked down on the heavenly Black Negative Meridian, she also underestimated the value of the Great Cyclic Pellet. If it was consumed for a long period of time, even the Yu Family might not be able to support it with their wealth. Moreover, apart from the significant effects when these pills were taken for the first time, the subsequent consumption of the Great Cycle Pellets would definitely result in a reduced effect. If Yu BingYan really consumed the Great Cyclic Pellets over and over again, she would probably suffer from the effects of the medicine. This is the meaning of ‘drug is 30% poison’!


They then leaned against each other as if they were one because their hearts were filled with love. However, they were in full control of their current selves and were not slaves like before.


With his sharp hearing, Ling Tian heard someone quickly approaching his courtyard. Then, a soft voice sounded, “Saudari Ling Chen, is young noble Ling present?”


It was Xiao YanXue's voice. Ling Tian was instantly shocked as he thought, The Xiao Family has not left yet?


Ling Chen's voice could then be heard, “Young nobles are resting. What does Miss Xiao need? ”


Xiao YanXue's eyes dimmed as she said, “Is Sister Chen still mad at me?” Ever since she came to the Sky Bearing, Xiao YanXue had been friends with Ling Chen because of her talent and they called each other as sisters. However, Ling Chen called her Miss Xiao at this moment and made their relationship sound very distant. It could be seen how dissatisfied Ling Chen was with Xiao YanXue's actions. Otherwise, with Ling Chen's gentle personality, it would be impossible for him to act like this!


When the Xiao Family came to Sky Bearing, they visited many parties and had close ties to various powers. However, they had evil intentions and held an auction to stir up a huge wave in the world. They even took out Heaven Slitter and pushed the Sky Bearing to the end of the waves! As long as their plan was successful, the Ling Family would definitely bear the brunt of the huge wave and Ling Tian's plan would definitely be destroyed. How could Ling Chen not be frustrated?


Ling Tian then patted Yu BingYan on the head as he said gently, “Good Yan’er, I will be back in a moment.” Yu BingYan responded gently to ‘en’ and lifted her head from her embrace. He then suddenly kissed Ling Tian's cheek gently with gentleness in his eyes.


Ling Tian then smiled affectionately and stroked his head before shouting, “Chen’er, take Miss Xiao to my study and serve tea.”


Outside, Ling Chen acknowledged Ling Tian's orders.


Just as Ling Tian was about to walk out, he suddenly recalled the deaths of the two Yu elders. He then could not help but stop as he turned to look at Yu BingYan. Seeing him suddenly stop walking, Yu BingYan mischievously stuck out her tongue and made a cute face at him.


Seeing Yu BingYan's wide smile, Ling Tian could not help but smile. He originally wanted to talk about the death of the Yu elders but decided to use a different method to ask him, “Yan’er, let me ask you something. Don't be in a hurry to get back at me. Ponder the question carefully before giving me an answer. I want to hear your real thoughts.”


Yu BingYan blinked her eyes and asked curiously, “What? It looks very serious!”


Ling Tian sighed and said softly, “Yan’er, if I become your family's enemy one day, and the two of us won't rest until one of us perishes, what are you going to do?”


Yu BingYan had never expected Ling Tian to ask such a sensitive and difficult question to answer at this moment. Thus, he was dumbfounded on the spot as he stared at Ling Tian's serious eyes in silence.


Ling Tian then smiled and said, “Think carefully and don't rush to give me an answer. I can accept any answer but I hope you won't lie to me! He then gently stroked her face before leaving the room.


Yu BingYan watched Ling Tian's back as she walked away, and in a daze, she muttered softly, “Tian’ge, do you still need to ask this question? In BingYan's heart, I already had an answer. No matter how deep your hostility is, as long as you don't hurt my parents, Yan’er won't take sides. Even if my parents become your enemies, I will definitely die first and not let Tian’ge get caught in such a dilemma!” Two streams of tears then flowed down his face.


Poor Yu BingYan was completely infatuated until she had such a feeling! For him to be infatuated at such a point, what else could be said?!


Ling Tian paused for a moment and Yu BingYan felt her heart beating fast. Ling Tian then continued walking as if nothing had happened. With Ling Tian's cultivation, he would naturally hear what Yu BingYan said. While Yu BingYan also knew that Ling Tian could hear what he was saying, she could not help feeling sad when she thought about the inevitable showdown between their families.


Happiness always has an end.


As the daughter of a noble family, choosing between a family and her lover was the hardest choice she could make! It was akin to cutting his heart in half! However, Yu BingYan knew that for Ling Tian to ask such a question, he would definitely have to face such a choice in the end. Could this be destiny?


Yu BingYan's originally cheerful appearance was replaced with a sad expression. However, his eyes were very firm!


For the one who loved her and the one she loved, so what if she had to sacrifice herself?


“I never thought that Miss Xiao would make a personal visit. What a rare guest.” Ling Tian said with a harmonious smile, “For the honored guest who visited me, I want to know what is it?”


When he heard that Ling Tian's words were very far away, Xiao YanXue's eyes dimmed and he forced a smile, “Ling the young noble was too polite. This little sister is here for three important things. The first was to say goodbye to the young noble Ling.”


Ling Tian raised his eyebrows and chuckled, “I've already guessed this first goal. I wonder what the second and third are!”


Ling Chen then served the tea and Ling Tian raised his tea glass, lightly blowing it away as he said, “Your Xiao family must have reaped a lot from this visit to Sky Bearing and this young noble is very envious of it. I wonder if this is Miss Xiao's second reason?


Xiao YanXue's face flushed red as he said, “Young nobles are very wise and we have been very troublesome for your Ling Family in our visit to Sky Bearing. This younger sister was very sorry about that, and the second thing was to apologize to the young noble Ling. Granny Ling has always taken care of this little sister but this little sister has been very annoying to your Ling Family. I have no face to look at grandma and I hope that young noble Ling can accept this bow on her behalf! As he said that, he bowed to Ling Tian.


Ling Tian then laughed and said, “Our two families are very close to each other. There is no need for you to be polite for such a small reason!” He actually received Xiao YanXue's bow!


On the surface, the Xiao Family looked as if they were the biggest winners in Sky Bearing. Not only did they earn a lot of money from the auction, they had even triggered future battles on the continent and even placed Sky Bearings on the opposing factions of all the other great powers. Moreover, it was impossible for their Ling Family to avoid all of this. Ling Tian was convinced that if not for Duke Ling and Old Lady Ling, it would have been impossible for him not to kill everyone from the Xiao Family here in the Sky Bearing. So, it was true for him to accept the bow!


After Ling Tian received Xiao YanXue's bow, the entire place became silent.


After a while, Ling Tian finally took the initiative to break the silence, “So what is Miss Xiao's third problem?”


293


Xiao YanXue then glanced at Ling Tian and said softly, “When this little sister was captured earlier, if not for young noble Ling saving me, I might have been sent to an eternal curse. The pleasure and kindness you have given me cannot be expressed in words. Please accept the bow from this little sister! ” He then gave Ling Tian a bow.


Ever since that incident, Xiao YanXue had often thought about this matter and even tested Ling Tian many times. While Ling Tian had never acknowledged this matter, Xiao YanXue was already convinced by the answer in his heart! The figure and gaze of the person who saved him that night was too familiar. If not Ling Tian, who else?


However, Ling Tian dodged it quickly this time without receiving his bow. Shaking her head, she said, “That's no big deal and Miss Xiao doesn't need to put that matter in your heart.” She then smiled deeply, “To put so much importance on emotions and truth, knowing how to return one's favor, Miss Xiao is indeed a descendant of the Xiao Family. Is this Miss Xiao's third problem? ”


The moment Xiao YanXue woke up, he heard Ling Tian say this and his face became extremely red! He stood glued to the spot with his face pale and could not say anything. With his wisdom, how could he not know that Ling Tian's words were filled with a strong tone of sarcasm and ridicule?


Both the Xiao and Ling families initially did not know each other and Xiao FengHan met Ling Zhan by chance while exploring the continent. They become adopted brothers and explore the world of boxers together, living on the brink of life and death. Since Ling Zhan was the older one, he was the older brother and took very good care of his younger brother, Xiao FengHan. Old Madam Ling also loved Xiao FengHan very much and treated him like her own sister. Even Xiao FengHan himself had admitted that if not for Ling Zhan and Old Madam Ling, he would have already died more than a dozen times.


After the Sky Bear Empire was established, Ling Zhan had become a prominent figure in the empire with his great services. At the same time, Xiao FengHan became the new head of the Xiao Family. The two sisters could be said to have reached the peak of their lives. At this time, they had also planned a wedding between their two families to further enhance their bond.


With the expansion of the Xiao Family, the ambitions of the Xiao Family and Xiao FengYang grew bigger and bigger. After seeing that Ling Zhan was extremely loyal to the Sky Bearings, Xiao FengHan knew that his rebellion did not necessarily have the support of Ling Zhan. Thus, he also gradually reduced his contact with the Ling Family while preparing for his Xiao Family ambitions. Then, he made use of Ling Tian's useless attitude to force the Ling Family to cancel the marriage. If not for his ambition, Xiao FengHan would have definitely restored the marriage after seeing Ling Tian's appearance, even if he had to lose face!


Since that incident, while both of their families still have relationships with each other, their relationship is much lower than before. Xiao FengHan felt as if he had let down his brother and sister-in-law, so as not to visit Sky Bearing in the past decade. Now that the world was about to fall into chaos again, the exact moment the Xiao Family needed was in front of them. Thus, Xiao FengHan naturally would not be willing to let go of this opportunity and sent Xiao FengYang and Xiao YanXue to help foment the storm. He even used Heaven Splitter to trigger conflicts in the world. When they stayed in the Ling Family when it came to Sky Bearings, they also had the intention to utilize the Ling Family, pulling them into the muddy waters as well. Now that their plan has been successful, they,


From the beginning to the end, of the three generations of the Ling Family, other than young Ling Tian, no one else had been suspicious of the Xiao Family at all. Even Ling Tian had only gathered information about the Xiao Family and had not taken any action. For so many things to happen between their two families, it could be said that the Xiao Family was completely wrong. If well said, the Xiao Family did it for their ambitions, and if said frankly, the Xiao Family is ungrateful!


Now that the Xiao Family reached their destination, they would leave the Sky Bearings to wait for their chance to stage a rebellion. However, the moment the Xiao Family left, the Ling Family would be placed in an awkward position. Who does not know about the relationship between their two families? With their relationship, no one would believe that the Ling Family did not participate in the actions of the Xiao Family!


Furthermore, the Ling Family was located in the Sky Bearing, right in the middle of the continent. When the world broke into chaos, the Sky Bearing would definitely bear the brunt of the flames of war and could be said to be isolated and without reinforcements! It was almost certain that the Ling Family would perish. All of these were created by the Xiao Family!


Was it really unintentional?


However, when Xiao YanXue said goodbye, he did not mention anything about the future. It was clear that the Xiao Family left the Ling Family after making use of them! Even Xiao YanXue himself felt that his family was acting too far this time around! Hearing Ling Tian ridicule him about this, how could Xiao YanXue be truly indifferent? Is an apology enough for this?


A cold gaze then shone in Ling Tian's eyes as he chuckled, “For Miss Xiao to say goodbye personally, Ling Tian is indeed overwhelmed with the help you have shown me. When you go to the South East, there are many mountains and may your journey be safe. After today, we may not have the chance to meet again and may Miss Xiao take good care of you!” These words were akin to sending his guest.


How could Xiao YanXue not understand that? With ****** lightly, he stood up and said, “Our Xiao family is lacking in consideration of our actions and has disappointed the Ling Family and the young Ling nobles. Xiao YanXue will apologize to the young noble again.” After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly said with certainty, “If young noble Ling faces a problem, you only need to send someone to let me know. No matter the distance, YanXue will definitely send people to help you repay the kindness of the Ling Family and yourself.” These words were akin to giving Ling Tian the promise that he would save the Ling Family once.


While the Ling Family had Ling Tian with their prestige in the Sky Bearing growing every second, they were still nothing more than a baby family. No matter how strong Ling Tian was, he would not be able to hold the fortress alone. The way Xiao YanXue saw it, even if the Ling Family could control the entire Sky Bearing, the Ling Family would not be able to escape destruction as chaos broke out due to the Heaven Separator!


Xiao YanXue's promise was akin to giving the Ling Family a protective talisman! Even when his family had given up on the Ling Family, Xiao YanXue still made such a promise without getting the approval of his family.


However, Ling Tian replied with a cold laugh and said in an indifferent tone, “Ah ah, if there really is such a day, I will naturally seek help from Miss Xiao. Ling Tian thanked him in advance. To thank Miss Xiao for your kindness, Miss Xiao could also send me a message when you were in danger. Regardless of the distance, I will definitely be there to help you. ” Ling Tian's words were full of sarcasm and ridicule.


After leaving Ling Tian's courtyard, Xiao YanXue was actually confused for a moment. After taking a few steps forward, he could not help but turn around and look at Ling Tian's courtyard. Ling Tian's temptation could be heard from within accompanied by Ling Chen's giggling. The moment Xiao YanXue heard that, she felt that it was very friendly yet so far away. Therefore, he could not help the feeling of sadness in his heart. Even if she was the little princess of the continent's greatest financial king and would probably become the daughter of a nation in the future, she said, he would never be able to get the feeling of being protected by the man he loved! As for Ling Chen, even if she was talented and beautiful, she was still nothing more than a Ling Tian servant. However, this servant was able to enjoy the happiness that he would never be able to enjoy.


Standing there in a daze, Xiao YanXue felt his mind completely jumbled. After I leave, the fight for Heaven Splitter will probably turn this place into a pile of rubble, right? What about the man in my heart? What's gonna happen to her?


With Ling Tian's arrogance and pride, why would he be willing to help a weak woman like me when I was in trouble? Xiao YanXue stomped her feet in frustration as she thought, It seems that I need to be extremely vigilant.


Xiao YanXue then looked towards the courtyard reluctantly again before finally leaving.


At the gate of the Ling residence, Duke Ling and the others from the Ling Family had already bid farewell to Xiao FengYang. However, both sides had complicated expressions on their faces. Xiao YanXue stood beside him with his head lowered, occasionally looking around. However, Ling Tian's suave figure never appeared from beginning to end. Finally, everyone from the Xiao Family rode their horses as a blank look was seen in Xiao YanXue's eyes. My ex-fiancee, why didn't she show up? Am I really insignificant in his heart? Am I really incomparable to a servant ?!


Xiao FengYan sighed as he said with a hint of sadness in his eyes, “Xue’er, ride on the horse.” With regards to Xiao YanXue's thoughts, Xiao FengYan was also aware of it but was completely helpless! On his way to Sky Bearing, he had personally witnessed Ling Tian's talent, martial arts, and strength. With regards to Ling Tian, his original humiliation turned into admiration as he felt a hint of inferiority deep in his heart. However, the situation was already set in stone, and it was time for the relationship between the Ling and Xiao families to be stopped. With regards to Xiao YanXue's feelings, he could only sigh helplessly. If things progressed as they predicted, it would be impossible for the Ling Family to survive and for Ling Tian to survive. After a while,


An hour later, the calvary of the Xiao Family shot out from the southern gate of the city with a huge cloud of dust formed by galloping horses. Xiao YanXue's horse was right at the end of the troop and he stopped his horse after making a long trip. Turning around to look at the thick walls of the city, streams of tears flowed down his cheeks.


You have to live well! Nothing has to happen to you! Be it for the one you love or for any other reason, you definitely have to stay alive!


Xiao YanXue's lips trembled as she muttered softly with tears flowing like rain. The sun set as a long silent shadow could be seen, with the Xiao Family troops waiting far away with complicated expressions.


A short while later, Xiao YanXue suddenly turned her horse around and whipped it once. With a loud neigh, the horse dashed out like an arrow coming out of a bow. The others from the Xiao Family then sped up their horses and chased after him.


This feeling could turn into my past memories and frustrations!


294


Young nobleman, are we really going to let the Xiao Family leave peacefully like that?” Ling Chen asked with a frown.


“Mmm,” Ling Tian replied with a smile, “The Xiao family left because they thought that their goal was achieved. The Heaven Divisor had managed to gain the attention of the entire continent and would definitely cause chaos to break out. In their predictions, regardless of who obtained the Heaven Splitter, they would definitely make a rebellion no later than a year. The Xiao family must have been preparing for war after they returned. However, what they did not know was that the party that obtained the Heaven Splitter was the party that would not dare to be provoked by anyone on the continent. Furthermore, the party was also the only power without the ambition to conquer the continent. However, this was something that no one could guess! ”


Ling Chen nodded his head in response and said, “However, it is a pity to let Xiao FengYang go like that.”


Ling Tian then said with a smile, “What is unfortunate? If we let them go, the Xiao Family will definitely remain silent for now. As long as the world did not break into chaos, the Xiao Family would not make a move. However, chaos will definitely not break out any time soon. This change was something that was definitely beyond the calculations of the Xiao Family. So, subconsciously we have won more time for ourselves. ” Ling Tian chuckled before continuing, “If Heaven Splitter has really been obtained by the other party, I will definitely spend all my means to kill Xiao FengYang in Sky Bearing! While the plans of the Xiao Family were very complicated and well thought out, they did not include Beyond Heavens, the greatest wild card, into their calculations! With the addition of this change, everything will be interesting!”


Ling Chen realized and he could not help but smile, “That's right, regardless of whether a power has the power to conquer a continent or not, they definitely have ambitions. However, the extraordinarily powerful Beyond Heavens were able to seclude themselves from worldly affairs without thinking of conquering the continent. For the Heaven Separator to land in the hands of Beyond Heavens, it was the same as eliminating it from the world. Thus, the Xiao Family's plan of using the Heaven Splitter to incite war had been completely thwarted. Am I right?”


Ling Tian laughed out loud, “That's right! The Xiao Family would definitely wait for a party with the Heaven Divider to carry out a rebellion so that they could benefit when the continent broke into chaos. While their plans were good, they could not predict the future! The Xiao Family's plan would definitely be thwarted. Furthermore, if Beyond Heavens thought that the Xiao Family was the mastermind to instigate chaos in the continent, the Xiao Family would definitely be in trouble!


Ling Chen replied in a giggle, “Then, the Xiao Family won't wait for anything or perhaps a catastrophe to befall them?”


A faint smile was seen on Ling Tian's face as he looked out the window, “That's right, by the time the Xiao Family realized that, maybe a year later. At that time, Xiao FengHan would realize that the state of the world was much different from now! Ling Tian at that time would also not be the Ling Tian now! While one year is not a long time, it is enough for me to work out my plan!”


“So, Xiao FengYang cannot die!” Ling Tian concluded, “He must not only live, we must pray for him to arrive back at the Xiao Family safely, lest the Xiao Family get anxious and start the war early. After all, it was us who received the most from the auction. Not only did we receive the Millennium Warm Jade and the Ice Fire Lotus, we even annihilated most of the Heavenly Wind Water in the continent and captured Shui QianRou. At the same time, we have also exterminated the XiMen Family and gained the most time we reduced! If we do not let others return home safely after receiving so many benefits, I will not be able to face my conscience. Right, Chener?” As he said that, he revealed a mischievous smile.


Ling Chen's face flushed red and he also burst into laughter. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel sorry for the Xiao Family. After detailed planning and foresight, their plans were completely thwarted and even benefited others! Furthermore, they were still kept secret and celebrated their success.


The smartest is still my young noble!


Ling Tian suddenly stopped smiling and asked, “Chen’er, how is your improvement?”


A trace of excitement could be seen on Ling Chen's face as he said happily, “Young nobleman, the Great Cyclic Pellet that you have perfected is truly a heavenly medicine! Chen’er did not encounter any danger while taking the pill. All I did was use my cold inner qi to continue refining the medicinal effects of the pills. In the end, not only was my inner qi much purer than before, I had broken through to the seventh stage and entered the mid-seventh stage. The pills are too awesome! ”


Do wrong! Ling Tian's mouth opened wide in surprise.


The top grade Great Cyclic Pellet that Ling Tian had refined was without a doubt extremely effective and even Ling Tian had tried it himself. However, he definitely did not have an unusual improvement like Ling Chen. Thinking of how he had to undergo such a torturous process to absorb the medicinal effects of the pellets, and seeing how Ling Chen could absorb them so easily as if it was something insignificant, he said, Ling Tian suddenly wanted to bang his head against the wall!


The seventh stage of the heavenly Ice Formula?! It seemed that Ling Chen was only at the fifth stage initially! To think that one Great Cyclic Pellet could help him pass through two stages! Ling Tian was completely silent.


“Acrease as fast as that?” Ling Tian suddenly thought of something and could not help but become anxious. Quickly putting his finger on Ling Chen's wrist, he sent a wave of deep qi into Ling Chen's meridians. However, he was surprised to realize that the flow in all of his meridians was extremely smooth with his soft, dense and pure inner qi. There was not a single strangeness in his meridians, and Ling Tian could not help but exclaim in shock.


Ling Chen then smiled, “At first, I felt as if the medicinal effects of the Great Cycle Pellets were extremely harsh but became soft and smooth after full circulation in my meridians. Furthermore, when I hung the Millennium Warm Jade given by the young noble on my chest, I felt as if it was constantly sending waves of warm energy into my meridians. The originally violent energy then became much calmer and gentler. It was amazing, hehehe..”.


The Millennium Warm Jade! Ling Tian suddenly thought of this item! No wonder Ling Chen's improvement was so amazing! With the Millennium Warm Jade protecting him, he would not have to worry about entering cultivation aberrations and could focus entirely on absorbing the medicinal effects of the pill. How can it be slow? Furthermore, he possessed a pure Yin physique and cultivated the heavenly Ice Formula. After being mixed with the pure Great Cyclic Pellet, he would naturally achieve double results with half the effort. After which, breaking through to the seventh stage of the heavenly Ice Formula was nothing more than a realm that took its course. Ling Chen was originally at the peak of the fifth stage and one step away from the sixth stage. With the help of the Great Cyclic Pellet and the top grade Millennium Warm Jade, he was actually able to break through to the seventh stage! It must be something unexpected.


“I understand ..” Ling Tian nodded.


Ling Chen then said excitedly, “Young noble, this Great Cyclic Pellet is very useful. If I take a few more, will I break through to the ninth stage directly and enter the highest stage of the heavenly Ice Formula?


Ling Tian was shocked as he reprimanded, “You must not have such thoughts! The Great Cycle Pellet was something that went against the heavens and was contrary to the logic of the inner qi growing with slow accumulation. Such a rapid increase is already something that should not happen and would be harmful to your meridians. If you take another pellet, you will suffer a counterattack on the spot and die because all of your meridians are broken! This is no joke! With your improvement, you can only take the second pill five years later! Furthermore, this depends on whether your improvement in these five years is satisfactory or not. Even if you could take the second pill, the effect of that pill would definitely be greatly reduced. If I had to say, I don't want you to consume another pill. Anyways, anyway,


Ling Chen's eyes widened in shock as he patted his chest in fear, “Ah? So that's the problem? Luckily I only ate one pill. I originally still intended to consume two pills. Mmm, I will listen to the young nobles and work hard in my cultivation. I will not rely on such a heavenly pill! ”


Ling Tian started sweating as he thought, Does this girl think that this is candy? Geez! If this girl really took two pills, I might be greeted with a pile of ashes when I return! Then, Ling Tian could not help but pull Ling Chen into his embrace. With a scream, Ling Chen had already laid on Ling Tian's knees. With two loud slapping sounds, Ling Tian started to hit him in the back.


Ling Chen shouted in pain but his eyes were filled with excitement.


Ling Tian said with ‘hmph’, “Let me teach you a lesson! How can you be so naughty!”


Ling Chen leaned on his knees and raised his head, “Didn't the young noble want to judge my improvement? Why not let Chen’er exchange some moves with the young noble? It had been a long time since Chen’er had argued with the young noble. ” With a big increase in his inner qi, he is eager to have spar.


Ling Tian then smiled pervertedly as his hands were already under his clothes. Grabbing his two twin peaks, he snorted, “You can compete with Ling Jian tomorrow. Today, we have something more important to do. See how this young noble makes you submit!”


Ling Chen's face was completely red as he struggled to wake up. However, he was quickly suppressed by Ling Tian and had no choice but to close his eyes as he felt a surge of pleasure rising from his chest. With a groan, he said, “Young master, it's still daylight!”


Ling Tian then carried him and walked towards the room with a small laugh, “So what if it was during the day? Who says we can't do it during the day?”


With a scream, he buried his face into Ling Tian's chest and stopped thrashing. Like a docile cat, he let Ling Tian take him to the room.


Ling Tian was first ignited by Shui QianRou first and Yu BingYan next. However, he had no way of letting go of her and could only hold back. Then, Xiao YanXue came to say goodbye which made her even more frustrated as she almost wanted to roar to the sky. Now that he had the chance, why would he care about day or night? He immediately looked for Ling Chen to get a good ‘confirm’!


The voices of the two of them spoke then could be heard.


“Young noble, can I defeat Ling Jian tomorrow?”


“Mmm..”


“Then I should definitely teach him a good lesson tomorrow! I must beat him black and blue. Hmph, hmph..”.


“... up to you, the more vicious the better.” As if he was busy with something, Ling Tian's words were not so clear.


“Young nobleman, then can I ..” Ling Chen keeps babbling.


“Shut!” Ling Tian finally cried out in despair and thought, This stupid woman really knows how to ruin the atmosphere!


“Oka...err...ooo...” His mouth is closed and the room is quiet…


295


The next day, the Ling Family Page.


Ling Tian coldly looked at Ling Jian, watching him lower his head in guilt.


Ling Jian initially thought that he would receive punishment for acting outside the bounds yesterday, but it was delayed until the next day.


Ling Tian coldly looked at him for a while, before speaking, “Chen’er, go and compete with Ling Jian. I'd like to see which stage you both have reached. You both have to give everything, I don't expect leniency. ”


As he finished speaking, an expression of ecstasy appeared on the faces of the other seven gifts! The group of five Ling Chi was actually here to make figures, and Ling Jian could be said to be soaring in happiness. As for Ling Chen, after consuming the Great Cycle Pellets, he had already been itching for battle long ago.


Ling Tian indifferently added, “Ling Jian, I allow you to use your sword!”


Ling Jian stopped in surprise. While Ling Chen's movement skills and techniques were on top of him, the moment he used the sword, he would be filled with killing intent, his strength more than doubled. How could Ling Chen accept it? He slowly replied, “Use my sword? Is there really a need for it?”


Ling Jian also had his own considerations. Earlier during the battle between Yu ManTian and the five Ling brothers, Ling Jian had always been hiding. However, his contacts and experience still grew by a large margin, and if he pitted himself against Yu ManTian once more, a winner might only be determined after a few hundred moves! When compared to Ling Chen who had always followed their young nobles, while his martial skills were strong, he rarely took action. Thus, compared to his killing skill, if he could not retreat in time, he would probably hurt Ling Chen!


Seeing Ling Jian looking down on him, Ling Chen angrily replied, “Jian Jian, you should use your sword. Or else, you will not be satisfied when you lose later!


Ling Jian put on an expression full of suspicion, where did Ling Chen's trust come from? The past few years when they were arguing, if not for him restraining, he would have been on the ground looking for his teeth!


Ling Tian lightly patted Ling Chen on the shoulder as he cheered him, “Chen’er, rest assured and fight. Your mission today is to defeat Ling Jian until he looks like a pig head. If you do not complete your tasks, then there will be no dinner tonight.”


Ling Jian laughed out loud, “Lass Chen, looks like you will be starving tonight!”


Ling Chen, however, smiled superficially, “Jian Jian, let's see who will starve tonight!”


Ling Jian was happy like punching, giggling, “What can be seen? These past few years, have you ever really won against me? Haha, stop joking. I also had a few minor breakthroughs during this time. If you lose, don't tell me that I'm bluffing you!”


But everything turned out completely different!


As they started, Ling Jian felt something was wrong! Ling Chen's palm carried an extremely cold winter pressure, which was cold enough to make him feel like he was in the fridge on this hot summer day! As the two of them fought, their surroundings began to be covered in a layer of clear ice! On a hot summer day! Furthermore, it continued to hang in there! Ling Jian started to suspect something, since when did this girl's skill improve so much?


When he was stripped away by Ling Chen and fell to the ground in a half-freezing state, he cried inwardly. In order to avoid injuring Ling Chen, he did not use his killing moves, but even if he used them, there might be no effect, seeing how frenzied he was today. What kind of steroids did he eat today?!


He had indeed guessed it correctly, wasn't this frenzied Ling Chen due to him taking medicines?


The moment he was struck by Ling Chen, his intestines turned green out of regret for not sending the five Ling brothers to another place earlier. Now how would he maintain his prestige among the five of them?!


In the end, Ling Jian lay on the ground groaning, not even having the energy to stand up …


Ling Chen did not disappoint Ling Tian. Right now, if anyone saw this scene, they would not recognize that Ling Jian was Ling Chen's match partner! Ling Jian's fame had plummeted to its lowest point in just a matter of hours. But Ling Chen was already very considerate, not even injuring his bones, but in return bruising every inch of his muscles. If one took a cursory look, they would see that Ling Jian's head had somehow grown larger by size, and his beautiful son's face could actually replace a pig's face!


“Young nobleman, my mission has been completed.” Ling Chen happily walked back to Ling Tian's side, giving a sweet smile. However, the five Ling brothers looked as if they had seen a female demon, they all had faces as white as milk, and subconsciously took a few steps back. No one here was unaware of Ling Jian's true prowess, but Ling Chen actually did not need much strength to defeat Ling Jian to this state! Wasn't this skill already on par with Yu ManTian?


“Hmm... barely passable.” Ling Tian nodded his head, but with a slight hesitation. “He still has a way to go before becoming a pig head. His ears were not big enough, and his nose was not long enough either. Forget it, I can take it as bait. ”


Ling Chen pouted in response, hatefully glaring at Ling Jian who was lying on his back, lamenting the fact that his ears were very small, and his nose was very short. To think that he almost made her lose the success of her mission.


“Young nobleman ..” Ling Jian slowly crawled up, opened his swollen eyelids and spoke in an obscure way, “Young nobles are being biased! Why did Chen's girl suddenly improve so quickly ?! ” Now he finally realized that Ling Chen's shocking growth could only happen due to the use of medicines and it was definitely the Great Cyclic Pellet Ling Tian who had done the job!


The problem with the Great Cyclic Pellets, the fewer who know about them, the better. Even Yu BingYan only knew of it as a form of medicine to cure her illness, and nothing else. The only people who were aware of his true nature were Ling Tian, Ling Jian, and Ling Chen. After all, such a heaven-defying medicine would definitely trigger many waves if news spread about it. It might even cause people to try to steal the drug. So, after a long consideration, Ling Tian decided that the medicinal effects should not be revealed.


Ling Tian snorted and looked at him meaningfully, whispering in his ear, “This is a consequence of what you did yesterday. Are you happy with that? Hmph, if there is a next time, it means Ling Chen is not doing his job well, and I am the one who will argue with you. ”


Ling Jian immediately trembled, a terrified expression on his face. Ling Chen had sent punches to almost every piece that had flesh on him, and Ling Tian said that he was not doing his job well?


Ling Tian took out a jade bottle from his chest, poured six pellets before putting it in Ling Jian's hands, instructing, “I want you to go into closed cultivation, please, and after cultivating for thirty-six hours, take one of these. . Remember, only one. If you take more than that, you won't have a body left to talk about! Once you have finished absorbing the medicine, give each of the other five and take care of them. There is no margin for failure, am I clear? ”


Ling Jian was overjoyed, taking the Great Cycling Pellet with his hands and holding it tightly in one hand. He thought, If the six of us can improve like Ling Chen did, then the First Pavilion will turn into the number one assassin organization overnight!


Ling Tian walked away, he suddenly stopped as if he remembered something, saying, “Before you give it to them, you need to do what Ling Chen did to you: relax all their muscles. This is to ensure the drug is more easily absorbed.”


Ling Jian stopped in shock, then a strange smile began to form on his face. Glancing at the five of them standing in the corner staring at him with schadenfreude, he slowly clenched his fists, and the crackling of his knuckles could be heard.


Finished with his preparations, Ling Tian ordered Ling Chi, “Take me to Ye BaiFei.”


In the secret room.


“How's Brother Ye?” Ling Tian smiled as he sat down, Ling Chen standing behind him.


“Ling Tian, you put this Ye here, but you didn't take any action. What does this mean?” Ye BaiFei seemed to have recovered quite a bit, a clear sign of the treatment he received in the Ling Family Courtyard. Other than the fact that his inner qi had been sealed, he lived like a normal person, albeit without freedom.


“Brother Ye has incredible martial skills and courage that surpasses normal men. Ling Tian admires you.” Ling Tian sincerely spoke. “My goal this time is to solve everything with you. You can decide whether to be killed or released!”


A cold smile appeared on Ye BaiFei's bloodless face. “Solve score? Did you kill or let me go, did it matter?


Ling Tian stood up as he replied, “I now lack capable people, and I hope Brother Ye can consider forming an alliance with me, to help me in my achievements. If Brother Ye agrees, not only will I thank you endlessly, but you will also regain your freedom. ”


Ye BaiFei grinned, “If this Ye does not agree?”


Ling Tian inwardly sighed, he had already realized what Ye BaiFei's inner attitude was, and inevitably felt pity.


He could only answer heavily, “It's no use me lying to you. Brother Ye, if you disagree, I am also not a saint, and will not leave you alive. May Brother Ye reconsider. ”


Taking two steps forward, Ling Tian solemnly continued, “Brother Ye, you should know that I am not trying to use your life to blackmail you. I'm just telling you a fact. In our territory, it would be childish if we used life and death to try to blackmail someone. Therefore, this is an option for you, and the only difference is where you have to play with life and death!:


Ye BaiFei laughed out loud as he replied, “Yes, that is indeed a childish choice for me!”


However, Ling Tian was not angry, instead a flash of mercy appeared in his eyes! Ling Tian deeply looked at such people who did not blink even when on the verge of death, but if such a person was his enemy, then he would definitely finish him off before anything happened! Because such people, if given the chance, can inflict irreparable damage on him!


A brief silence occurred before Ling Tian spoke once more, “Brother Ye, you still haven't answered me. What the hell are you thinking? Please reconsider seriously, there is no turning back!”


Ye BaiFei simply looked at Ling Tian calmly. “Ling young nobleman, the only reason why I have not silenced myself until now is because I have been waiting for this day.” His eyes displayed the gaze of someone who viewed death as another goal and continued with a hint of memories in his eyes, “You can end his life at any time. I was waiting for the young noble to come so I could ask this: That day when I was arrested, did you give the order


296


Ye BaiFei laughed out loud, “Thank you!”


Ling Tian, however, remained silent for a while longer, finally saying, “No need thank you! Because you are Ye BaiFei! Golden Leaf BaiFei!”


Ye BaiFei smiled in satisfaction, with a hint of pride, “That's right. I am the Golden Leaf BaiFei! Just like you Ling Tian, Ling Tian wants to overcome Heaven by himself! ” He looked at Ling Tian with a few extra award points, and this was the first time he had looked directly at him since Ling Tian entered! “I may not be as good as you, but there is one thing, and it is a fact that I will not admit defeat.”


Ling Tian slowly nodded, “That's right, Brother Ye's demeanor completely left respect.”


Using a much calmer tone, Ye BaiFei recounted, “Therefore, your last sentence needs no answer.”


Ling Tian sighed loudly in response, “Yes! While I knew it was futile, I had to ask. If I didn't ask, it would be a huge regret in my life!”


Ye BaiFei turned around and spoke in a soft voice, “Because that's the case, Brother Ye won't see young noble Ling leave.”


Ling Tian laughed out loud as he replied, “Then let me give you a few final words of farewell: If there is a next life, then let's meet again as opponents! The road to the Yellow River is long, Ling Tian will not take you away!”


“If there is a next life, let's meet again as an opponent!” Ye BaiFei silently repeated these words, and laughed, shouting, “You too! He who understands me, Ling Tian!”


A tremor suddenly passed through his body, and Ye BaiFei discovered that all of his internal energy that had been sealed had suddenly opened. An expression of appreciation and gratitude flashed across his face, and when he turned around, he discovered that only he was left in the room.


Looking at the door of the room that was left open without any guards, he sincerely whispered, “Thank you, Ling Tian! If there is a next life, maybe we are not enemies, but true friends!”


On the way back, Ling Tian had a heavy expression. Ling Chen finally couldn't bear it anymore and curiously asked, “Young noble, just now when you spoke to Ye BaiFei, I didn't understand a single word you said to him.”


Ling Tian halted his steps, sighing, “Chen’er, while Ye BaiFei might not be a good person and could even be considered a heartless killer, he was, in the end, a hero!”


Ling Chen was stunned in silence. Since he was not a good person, how could he remain a hero?


“Not every good person must be a hero,” Ling Tian mused. “Just like not every criminal is a criminal! There will always be anomalies! And for a hero, he has his own moral principles that we cannot be ashamed of or cross!”


Hasty footsteps could be heard from afar, and Ling Tian seemed to feel something, as his face changed and he became stiff.


A man full of sweat rushed over, kneeling as he reported, “Young noble, this servant just discovered that the secret room was left unlocked, and inside, the, Ye BaiFei had committed suicide by destroying all of his meridians!”


Ling Chen took out ‘ah’ in shock, not knowing what to do.


Ling Tian had a cold expression. He suddenly turned around, staring at the sky as if recalling something, but also looking as if he was sending something. In the place where he was staring, the clouds lazily floated, calm and beautiful. At this point, he solemnly spat out two words, “Bury him!” Then step away. Ling Chen followed closely.


“Iya!” The black-robed man tilted his head respectfully, then stood back up.


“The turbulent river water flows east, and the waves carry away the heroes; looking back, all the successes and failures of life seem empty. The mountains still remain green, but the sun has risen and set many times!” Ling Tian seemed to be in a gloomy mental state, writing such a poem as he walked through the courtyard. However, after this, he smiled lightly, shaking his head as he muttered, “Let this poem be a sincere gift to Ye BaiFei!”


Ling Chen muttered the poem to himself and found that even though the poem sounded encompassing everything, it had some points to be detached from all worldly affairs. He could not help but feel worried, glancing at Ling Tian. This was the first time in a decade Ling Chen felt the uncertainty from Ling Tian, as if his previous mentality of being able to do whatever he wanted had disappeared.


Seeing Ling Chen's gaze at him, Ling Tian couldn't help but pat his head, tousling his hair as he lightly spoke, “You won't be able to understand. As a woman, there are things that we men would not understand, and I also would not let my loved ones worry about such things!”


Ling Chen felt like he was being confronted with an esoteric concept. You guys are obviously men, and I am a woman, why do you affirm that? But hearing Ling Tian talk about him as ‘his loved ones’, he felt a sweet taste fill his heart, and immediately threw away all the irrelevant thoughts from his mind!


Looking at Ling Chen's cute expression that winked his eyes in confusion, Ling Tian laughed, erasing the depressed feeling he had a while ago. She pulled Ling Chen into her arms and beamed, “You stupid girl, let's go, we'll go see how Miss from the Shui Family is doing!”


Shui QianRou sat quietly in his room with half-closed eyes and a haggard expression on his face. Ever since he stepped into this place, many doctors treated his injuries, and put some medicine into his throat, so that he could clearly feel that his injuries were already in the process of recovery, he said, the pain is much less. Die’er sat beside him silently, fretting over his longing expression, but not making any sound. Instead, his eyes moved incessantly, as if thinking of something. After being taught a lesson by Ling Tian that day, he no longer tried to shout and shout anymore!


Inside the room, there are not only beds and sofas but also clean blankets as well as tables and chairs. There is even clean hot water as well as a cup. Evidently, the Ling Family still treated this young miss well.


However, within Shui QianRou's heart, it was like a wave crashing on the beach, billowing high as he constantly repeated the harsh words Ling Tian spat at him! ‘What mistakes have I made? Did I really do something wrong? Nah! I did nothing wrong, all this was done for the benefit of my family, what was wrong? But no! I was completely wrong, I had long since lost my original purpose, and I had never done anything on my own behalf, with my own intentions!’


With Shui QianRou's two sides fighting each other in his mind, going from thought to thought, this caused him to be tortured to no end, and become chaotic. He really couldn't make heads or tails out of what he was thinking.


The whole day and night had passed, and he seemed to have become a walking sack of meat, to the point where he had to need help from grooming and bandages, until eating and drinking where Die’er should feed him. . It was a surprise he received when he realized that he had never done anything himself before and that he was always being manipulated from behind the scenes.


“Nona Shui, how are you feeling? Is the service provided here still adequate?” Suddenly, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice pulled the half-conscious Shui QianRou back into the real world. He sharply opened his eyes! That disgusting voice! And the disgusting owner of that disgusting voice! Ling Tian, you b* st*rd! You're finally here!


“Ling Tian!” Shui QianRou's voice sounded like he was speaking with gritted teeth. “What have I done wrong? To deserve to be scolded like that? Who do you think you are? This woman here has never done a dirty game! Yes, I admit I like you! But liking is one thing, and my personal stance is different from my family stand! Since we are enemies, when the time comes for me to kill, then I will kill! Who are you to lecture me?! My life and everything have long since left to my family, and sacrificed myself to complete the task, where am I wrong?!”


Shui QianRou was extremely agitated, his pale face flushed abnormally. “You think you're a tall person? Don't bring feelings into this! Ling Tian, let me ask you, even if you love a woman, would you betray your family for her? Can you do that? If you can't then who are you to judge others, you're a hypocrite!”


Ling Tian stopped in shock, what is with this girl? Spit so much when they just met? Did the doctors give him gunpowder for medicine?


However, Ling Tian did not realize that while Shui QianRou did not consume gunpowder, he was filled with such thoughts all day and night! And furthermore, he fought against whatever Ling Tian said in his mind! The more he thought, the more he decided that he did not have any faults, and upon seeing Ling Tian, he exploded like a volcano that had an atomic bomb thrown into it. It was only when he finished speaking everything on his mind that he finally slumped onto the bed, losing energy.


Ling Tian replied calmly, “You are not wrong! In your point of view, you are absolutely right. Rela sacrifice for the family, exerting all efforts, what's wrong? At the very least, for your family, it is absolutely true, and you will be considered prestigious, your family is very proud of you! I never once said that your point of view is wrong!” A cold smile then appeared as he continued, “But, from MY point of view, you are wrong big time! What do you think?!”


“You are the Heavenly Wind Water, located in the distant Heavenly Wind Continent. Other than the Yu Family with whom you have grudges, you have no grudges with others in the Heavenly Star Continent, am I right? Ling Tian's tone became even colder.


Shui QianRou reluctantly raised his head, “And what does that have to do with something?”


“What does this have to do with something?” Ling Tian repeated his words, laughing, “You invaded the Heavenly Star Continent, not purely for the Yu Family, right? Your first, and biggest, mistake is to provoke me, Ling Tian! We have no enmity, but you just have to go to collude with Northern Wei and the Sky Bearing Imperial Court to get rid of my father! Shui QianRou, plotting to kill someone who has no enmity or hostility with you, which part is right?”


297


Shui QianRou looked into his eyes with a flat gaze and firmly replied, “Same like celestial bodies that never run out of energy, we should always strive to improve ourselves. To achieve some achievement, how can one be picky about what they do? Winners are glorified, and losers are slandered, what else can I say? Your father Ling Xiao was a great general, with half his life as a soldier, he should have long made preparations to die in battle. When two countries are at war, everyone is to himself. To be truly immoral, what's wrong with that? ”


Ling Tian coldly snorted, “So, for all of you, what you guys are doing is ultimately right. But if you stand in my viewpoint?


“When two countries are at war, everyone is for himself. When people fight for achievement, winners are glorified and losers are vilified!” Ling Tian read. “Indeed, with this pretense, whatever is done cannot be considered wrong. Miss Shui, isn't that so? Do you really think that's the problem? Is this the behavior of a king?”


Shui QianRou sneered at him, “ It was unexpected that young noble Ling finally reached enlightenment!”


Ling Tian ignored her scorn and instead continued to speak, “As an enemy on the opposite side, based on what Miss Shui said, does that mean that everything must be done to win? Since we chose to be enemies, then should we accept it and try our hardest? Is this what Miss Shui wants to say? ”


Shui QianRou coldly laughed, “After all, you are not too stupid! I've said it, just as celestial bodies never run out of energy, we should always try to improve ourselves. This is the way of a king!”


Ling Tian laughed out loud, suddenly pulling his smile as his face turned cold. “Good. What a good saying, just like celestial bodies never run out of energy, we should always strive to improve ourselves! In that case, let me ask Miss Shui, are we now enemies? ”


She snapped back, “If not, then why is this woman here?”


Ling Tian clapped his hands, casually continuing, “Then since we are enemies, why can't I scold you? Since you can even kill me, do I need a reason to scold you? Whatever you do is the way of a king, so why can't I remain noble if I scold you?


Shui QianRou was dumbfounded silly!


A cruel smile now appeared on Ling Tian's face, Based on your logic, anything I want to do is allowed! Are you ready to really be my slave? Or toys to play with and throw away? Can I really throw you into the barracks to become a military prostitute? To satisfy my soldiers? Do you have this mental preparation? Because you are a noble who understands this concept. That's it?!”


Shui QianRou's face instantly paled! No one knew if it was out of anger or fear! This young lady's heart must be panicking right now.


Ling Tian coldly snorted, ruthlessly pressed, “Since you have already made a lot of preparations, then if I don't do what you want, won't I be considered too friendly? Otherwise, I wouldn't have that grand attitude! ”


He turned around, yelling, “Men!”


From the outside came the sound of approval, and Ling Tian ordered, “Take off Miss Shui's clothes, and throw her into the military barracks! Tell the brothers that they should have fun to the fullest, at the request of the successor of the Heavenly Wind Water! This guy has long since prepared himself for such trouble, and we should definitely live up to his expectations!”


The group agreed, and four big men rushed forward!


“NO!” Shui QianRou shouted in sadness! It was a miserable wail, filled with sadness. What color was left on his face immediately bled, as two streams of tears streamed down his cheeks!


“Ling Tian! No, young noble Ling, I beg you, please let my family's young daughter go!” Die’er immediately knelt on the floor, kowtowing to him, “My young lady's body is somehow worth gold, how can it be soiled? Because of the feelings that our little princess has towards you, please let her go! I beg of you! I beg of you! I beg of you! …” Die’er keeps banging his head against the floor, until his forehead spits out a lot of blood. On the floor, a bloody patch had already formed!


“Apartment with its weight in gold?” Ling Tian sneered, “But after all we are enemies, and what is the value of a noble body to me? Hurry up! Pull him out!” Shui QianRou's face was already deathly pale, looking like a corpse! For someone with his status, to not say anything about having a rude person defile him, even touching him would be an insult! If he was really given to Ling Tian's army as a reward, then he would rather die! He had already formed the intention to commit suicide in his heart!


In the end, Ling Chen was still a woman and could not bear it anymore. He pulled up Ling Tian's sleeves, gently whispering, “Young nobleman ..”


Ling Tian, however, angrily shouted at him, “Close your mouth! When a man does his business, as his partner, you have no right to interfere! Stand to the side!” His voice was cold and cruel, with no room to argue!


The edge of Ling Chen's eyes instantly reddened, as tears threatened to fall. He could only sadly stand beside the wall, not even daring to speak a word. This was the first time Ling Tian had reprimanded Ling Chen so loudly and ruthlessly, so how could he not feel heartbroken?


The four guards looked at each other, feeling that the situation was very awkward, and hesitated.


Ling Tian was furious and sent a kick to one of the guards as he shouted, “Are you guys deaf?! This nobleman here has given his orders, have you not heard me? Hurry up and comfort this Miss Shui, unless you tell me that you want this young noble to do it yourself? ”


The guards who were kicked were hit hard on the stone wall and even bounced back. An expression of intense pain surfaced on his face, yet he did not even dare to let out a voice of pain. However, sweat poured down his face as he held it back!


Seeing the four guards stepping closer, Die’er lost his mind in fear. She quickly crawled back up, and stood in front of Shui QianRou, pleading in a low voice, “Nona, under someone else's roof, you should lower your head; hurry and beg young noble Ling! If you ask him yourself, he might change his mind!”


Shui QianRou had a bloodless complexion, despair clearly visible in his eyes. “No! I'd rather die!”


Ling Tian immediately took the chance, “Mati? Do you think you can still choose to die now? Do you think that by dying you will get away with all this? Shui QianRou, you are too naive!”


“Dan!” Ling Tian took out one of the blades on the waists of the guards, and threw it beside Qian ShuiRou, saying, “I will give you this sword. Do you dare to kill yourself now? Hm?”


Shui QianRou stretched out his hand and placed the knife on his white neck. With a heavy yet sad voice, he shouted, “Ling Tian! I'll die for you to see!” As he spoke, he raised his sword to slash his neck!


Ling Tian sneered, “Please! After you die, I will strip your body, and while it still has human warmth, give it to each warrior to satisfy themselves! Once done, then I will freeze your body and resolutely send it back to the Heavenly Wind Continent to be paraded. I will let everyone around the world party for their eyes and let the world see what the millennium-old Shui family is like! I believe, the name Miss Shui, of the Heavenly Wind Water, will go down in history, to be passed down in all ages!


“Dang lang!” The steel bar fell to the floor as Shui QianRou pounced on Ling Tian, grabbing his collar. “Ling Tian! You are not human! As a noble, how can you treat me like that? You demons! You dog ab*st*rd which is worse than a beast! ”


Yet Ling Tian remained unmoved, as if nothing extraordinary had happened. She just coldly replied, “Isn't this Miss Shui's life motto? This young noble only follows your thought process. Since we are enemies, then of course I can be as immoral as I want to be! This is nothing more than what I just learned from Miss Shui! ”


Shui QianRou slowly released Ling Tian's collar, his entire body falling to the floor as he began to cry. How could a young girl like her receive such psychological torture?


“Young master Ling, what should we do so that you can let go of my family's miss?” Die’er knelt on the floor once again, with a trace of tears all over her cheeks, and her forehead covered in blood, looking like an evil spirit.


Ling Tian snorted, “Who are you asking me! Your Miss Family clearly knows what to do! And he also knows what I want!” Ling Tian turned his head to face Shui QianRou, his voice suddenly became soft, the great “Nona Shui, are you planning to have your family's reputation smell like the XiMen's home for the next millennium or so? Or are you going to tell me about your detailed plan? How are you going to deal with my father? Where did this scheme come from? Who participates in it? As long as you divulge it, I can save my father, and your Shui Family can avoid this humiliation. It's a win-win! Even if the scheme doesn't work, your people probably won't die! However, if you don't speak, while you can't avoid your fate, my father might still not be dead! ”


Ling Tian continued, “I tried hard to kill the two elders of the Yu Family, to bring you back. I don't have time to linger! Right now, my patience is thinning, so I will count to three. Shui QianRou, if I don't receive the answer I want, then I will immediately rush through dawn and dusk to the North to save my father. And you can obediently accept your fate as a prostitute! ”


Ling Tian did not even hesitate, immediately counting, “One!”


A tremor passed through Shui QianRou's body, and various expressions flashed across his eyes, but his lips only trembled.


“Two!” Ling Tian did not stop, immediately shouting the next number.


Shui QianRou bit his lips, bleeding. His body trembled uncontrollably, and tears continued to fall.


“Haha,” Ling Tian laughed, “It looks like Miss Shui won't say it. Then I don't have to waste my time counting down. Come on, guys, drag him out!”


“No!!” Shui QianRou raised his head in panic, his defense completely shattered! In a voice as gentle as the hum of a mosquito, he spoke, “I…. I'd say ...” But he suddenly swayed and fell unconscious. He had originally already sustained heavy injuries, and now that his soul had been destroyed by Ling Tian, there was nothing left to support him, and he had fainted! As he fell, his breathing became shallow, as if he was about to die!


Ling Tian's face turned grim as he took a step forward, grabbing his wrist. Training his inner qi, he could only sigh, this girl's injuries were unexpectedly heavier than he thought! He immediately ordered, “Call a doctor to treat him. When he wakes up, report to me, regardless of the time. ” After he finished, he walked out, and the four guards followed, standing in uniform outside. Ling Tian suddenly stopped and patted the shoulder of the guard he had kicked earlier, apologizing in a friendly tone, “Sister, thank you for your hard work. To get what I want, I have to do it. Does it still hurt?”


A warm current of inner qi flowed as he patted the guard, seeping into his body and alleviating the pain immediately, before removing all the wounds present.


298


After receiving Ling Tian's ‘first aid, the guard felt a wave of gratitude, and two huge tears completely flowed from his eyes and dripped onto the floor! Who would have thought that the owner of the Ling Family Courtyard, Ling Tian, the person whom everyone here considered a god, really knew how to apologize ?! At that moment, he felt the blood in his body surging and found that his voice was choking with emotion, unable to say anything. Only after a long time did he finally force words, “muda ... noble ..”


Ling Tian wiped his tears and laughed, “What a sight! You're a strong, burly man, but you're actually crying. Did I hit you so hard that you cried in pain? Look at him, is he really a grown man?” As he spoke, he turned to the other three guards.


“That's right, it's very unsightly. Li LaoSi, you humiliated us, crying like a newborn baby. You only get kicked once! Even we wanted to do the same but didn't have a chance! Ha ha ha!” The three of them were also laughing, but you can see that their eyes were shining brightly and their voices were also trembling slightly. Seeing the sympathy and attention Ling Tian showed Li LaoSi, and making Ling Tian joke like a friend, the four of them felt that they would happily give up their lives for her!


Li LaoSi wiped her tears and started laughing.


When Ling Tian left that place and saw Ling Chen silently trailing behind with a terrified expression on his face, he could not help but laugh, pulling him to his chest as he whispered, “Dumb girl, he said, it's just a trick, and you really think it's real! Look at your frown, I could've hung the lights there! If I can't even lie to you, then how am I going to bully the girl? To lie to someone, you must first be able to get people close to you to believe in your lies!”


Ling Chen initially did not frown, but after hearing his words, his lips instantly protruded as he lamented, “I also know that the young noble used a trick, but when the young noble lectured me, it was when the young noble lectured me, my heart still hurts! I've never been scolded by a young noble before, and it's actually very painful!”


Ling Tian started, and could not help but ruffle his hair, while laughing at her scolding, “Basic stupid girl!”


Ling Chen leaned against his chest and calmly replied, “Nona Shui must also feel bad, after all, he has feelings for you, young noble, she is also very sad, and Chen’er can say that he did not lie about that!”


Ling Tian smiled in response, “Of course he would feel bad, the grand heir of Heavenly Wind Water became like that. How can he feel good? Of course, he better tell the truth, or I will actually do what I say! ”


Ling Chen sighed, “While what you said is the truth, it is not enough to cause suffering for Miss Shui. Young noble, you really do not understand the mind of a woman. ”


Ling Tian paused for a moment and then suspiciously replied, “What do you mean?”


Gazing into the distance, Ling Chen slowly spoke, “A woman may not care too much, but the thing she values the most is her purity! A woman can face the harsh judgment of the world, but cannot accept a single word of scorn from her loved ones! Even the slight bad impression in the heart of the man he liked was as if he was being mutilated. Does the young noble now understand that I said it like this? ”


At this point, Ling Chen gathered his courage to directly face Ling Tian and snorted, “The actions of the young noble today, given being an enemy, are completely justified! But if you are the object of a woman's admiration, then it is not only excessive but also unnecessary cruelty. I believe that no woman can accept such humiliation! Even if Miss Shui was from the Heavenly Wind Water, she was no exception, because after all, in the end she was still a woman!”


Ling Tian quietly took two steps forward, the sight of Shui QianRou in fresh despair in his mind. He could only sigh loudly, muttering, “Maybe I overdone. But for my father's safety, I have no other choice.”.


Ling Chen also became a little nervous at this moment, and tried to calm her down saying, “In the end, Miss Shui is still on the opposite side, too, so suffering a few sentences of verbal abuse can be considered letting go quite lightly. ” As she spoke, she sighed again, “Actually, in this patriarchal society with power struggles among men, women should never be involved. Anyway, we're still too weak. The young noble is the one Chen’er loves the most, so whatever you want to do, Chen’er will support you to the end without a word of complaint!


Ling Tian curiously looked at him a little, as he had not expected Ling Chen's mind to have reached such a stage, and could not help but admire his maturity. He carelessly smiled in response, “It doesn't matter even if women are involved, as long as they don't lead. As long as they remained safe behind their people and utilized their meticulous nature and intelligence to help them, it was already more than enough. To Shui QianRou, she did not treat herself as a woman at all! While a woman does nothing wrong in helping her husband, trying to take over the role of a man is too much!”


Ling Chen also smiled, thinking to himself while looking at Ling Tian, the young noble, I will always be right behind you, living for you. This life, the next life, and the next life. Forever!


Ling Tian walked in front, with his hands behind his back as he gazed up at the sky. He felt his soul leave his body, his spirit soaring into Northern Wei. In his ear he heard the sound of a galloping warhorse and the sound of slaughter and thought to himself, I wonder what the situation is now? His brows furrowed at the problem he was facing.


The Northern battlefield.


Great general Ling Xiao was clearly different. With ten thousand personal troops and a hundred thousand as the main force, they seemed to have formed an iron wall around the Nine Wallets City! Ever since Ling Xiao arrived at his destination, the morale of the soldiers had risen to an all-time high! Northern Wei had tried many attacks, but not only had they been repulsed from time to time, but their casualties continued to increase without end! Even if they were to unite under one common banner, many of their soldiers would still be mysteriously killed in their barracks! All the marks pointing towards Northern Wei already had the intention to surrender and retreat.


Deep in the night, Ling Nineteen's thin body was hidden in the shadows, sitting in front of the tent as she tested her own sword. The war this morning had just ended, and the bloodstains on Ling Nineteen's body were akin to badges of courage and bravery.


The nearby soldiers all started to shift a little further away from him, throwing frightened gazes. In their eyes, he was like a stinky, hard dirt. Other than those brothers, he treated everyone coldly, staring at everyone with an emotionless face. Seeing him was like meeting a pestilence demon.


Ling Nineteen turned her gaze to the soldiers, the corner of her mouth raised with a helpless smile. Ever since he started participating in the war, he had chosen a lifestyle that was not harmonious with those around him. This is not introversion, nor is it an insult. This was because the lives of their young soldiers were too colorful and beautiful, and he had to use such a style to protect himself.


All of this came from the fact that when Ling Nineteen first entered the army barracks, she only took an hour to befriend all the other soldiers there. After all, the army would be full of hot-blooded men, and such people were the easiest to contact. In those few days, Ling Nineteen felt that it was the happiest and most fulfilling time of her life. He appreciated his friends, and was even ready to live and die with them!


However, in the battle three days later, while all the men had hot blood flowing through their veins, most of them lost the chance to bleed hot again! Of the one platoon consisting of nearly a hundred people, only four of them were left. Ling Nineteen actually wanted to use her ability to protect some people close to her, but this was a battlefield, and sudden changes occurred anytime and anywhere. To be able to protect your own life is already considered a miracle! After seeing the people who had shared a joke with him just an hour ago lying on the sandy, lifeless ground, he felt completely helpless at that moment! Such emotions can even drive a stubborn man crazy!


From then on, Ling Nineteen stopped befriending any man in the barracks, instead deliberately distancing himself from them and burying any emotions in his heart. There was no other reason for that, just that he did not want his comrades to feel the same pain he would feel if he fell on the battlefield. It was the attentive people who knew that this young man was not as cold as he seemed, acting further to save anyone by his side, whether he knew them or not.


Ever since he was sent here by his young nobles, he had developed a strange habit of wiping his sword. In the middle of the night, he would sit still while wiping his steel blade, his mind floating to some unknown place. He would reminisce about the moments he spent with his fallen comrades and remember the wonderful moments they went through together. This period of brightness was the greatest pleasure he had every day.


Inside the tent, three of his other roommates had long fallen asleep and let out loud snoring sounds. Flags in the neighboring tents also fluttered at night, suddenly giving him the feeling that although the large tents looked majestic during the day, they resembled a tomb at night. This kind of thought was a bit too unfavorable!


Thinking of his young noble, a respectful expression was immediately revealed on his face. By adopting abandoned children and without food, clothing, or shelter under his care, and even giving them a set of martial skills, it was as if going from hell to heaven! Such a life, what more could he ask for?


Touching the scar on his arm, Ling Nineteen's face had a reminiscent expression.


At first, when the young nobles gathered the children, he chose three thousand of them himself to teach in private. After a month, only a tenth was further selected to continue undergoing this particular training. After another month, three hundred became a hundred, and one last month passed before this number was reduced to fifty! The scar on his arm was obtained on the final qualification test! At that moment, he originally did not have enough ability, but when his arm was injured, he did not even flinch despite the sweat on his face showing his pain. It was this particular point that attracted the attention of his young nobles and got him elected.


His opponent that year was originally named Gou Dan, but the young noble later named him as Ling Chi. However, every time they met, Ling Nineteen would still call him Gou Dan, and every time they fought but he would not be able to defeat him. Thinking of this, Ling Nineteen smiled.


299


Thinking about his agonizing training in the past and the brutal training methods of Instructor Ling Jian, those memories seemed extremely sweet. Those memories were probably the ones he valued the most.


In the fifty brothers, other than a few of them, the rest were named Ling One to Ling Fifty! Three years ago, they scattered in all directions in one night. No one knows where the other brothers went. At this moment, the only siblings Ling Nineteen could see were the few people sleeping in the tent behind him: Ling Twenty, Ling Twenty-One, and Ling Twenty-Two. Under the orders of the young nobles, they had entered the army to secretly protect General Ling!


I wonder where my other brothers are. Are they still okay?


From the last few battles, Ling Nineteen could faintly sense that something was amiss. Their fight is too easy! The moment Ling Xiao arrived, the two sides had some fierce battles and had a considerable number of casualties. However, both forces are still in fairly healthy condition.


Despite that, Northern Wei had suffered from many defeated battles and even showed signs of retreating! There are too many unnatural signs!


How could the 200,000 strong Northern Wei army be easily defeated? While Ling Xiao was extremely aggressive, he was an experienced general with sharp eyesight! Originally, he only wanted to fight steadily and would be satisfied if he could protect Nine Swallow City. However, some newly promoted generals who were close aides of the emperor suggested sending their troops and expanding the war! Frustrated, Ling Xiao could only let them dispatch their personal troops. He thought that as long as they faced some difficulties, they would stop suggesting the expansion of the war.


However, things did not go as Ling Xiao had planned, and the new generals actually won in their battle. They had managed to push the Northern Wei backwards for a hundred miles which further boosted the morale of their troops.


Now that they were on the path of victory, the other generals could no longer sit still. After all, the opportunity for them to perform services was right on their faces. As long as they could defeat the Northern Wei army, the noble titles would definitely be within their reach and their future would be bright. Who wouldn't be tempted by that? Even some wise and experienced generals began to fidget.


After repeatedly sending out his spies, Ling Xiao was unable to find anything wrong. He could only give in to the majority opinion and lead his army north!


Their battles along the way were smooth, and they won every confrontation with the Northern Wei army! Even a few carefully planned ambushes could easily be thwarted by their soldiers with the Northern Wei army walking miserably for their lives. The battles of the Sky Bearings troops went smoothly with victories one after another! After so many wins in a row, everyone was in an excited mood with high confidence. They almost felt as if they would be able to defeat the imperial palace of the Northern Wei capital and return triumphantly. After chasing their enemy for 200 miles, they were already in the Northern Wei region.


Such a scenario made the four Ling feel a strong sense of unease. The war had gone too smoothly, and they had managed to get to a strange and suspicious point. The four of them had already tried to send a report to the Ling Family Courtyard three times but had never received a reply from their young nobles! Just this point alone made them feel even more anxious. Due to the need for secrecy, they did not bring their best messenger hawks and used traditional pigeons to send their letters.


As long as their young nobles received news of their circumstances, it was impossible for him to ignore his father! However, why didn't he give an answer after such a long time? There may be only one explanation!


Behind him, a rustling sound rang out and someone came out of the tent, sitting beside him. “Kakak Nineteen.” Ling Nineteen turned around and could see a pair of sharp eyes staring at her in the darkness.


“Small sister, why don't you sleep? We have a big battle waiting for us tomorrow. ” Ling Nineteen frowned. The one who came out was the youngest of the four, Ling Twenty-Two.


“Brother of the Nineteen, I feel something is wrong.” Ling Twenty-two said with a frown. While Ling Nineteen was the highest ranked here, they were used to calling each other as they did in the courtyard. When they spoke to each other like this, they would feel a deep sense of pride in their hearts! They belonged to the young noble and were the trusted aides of the young noble!


“Mmm, something is wrong indeed,” Ling Nineteen lowered her head, wiped her sword again, and continued, “I continue to have a bad premonition. Looks like this is the calm before the storm.”


“I'm not just talking about this,” Ling Twenty-two said with a serious expression, “I strongly suspect that our soldiers have entered a big trap. Brother Nineteen, are you aware that we have sent three pigeons a post to the young noble? There should be no reason not to get a reply after sending the three of them! I suspect that our messenger pigeons have been captured! If that's the case, there's definitely a trap!”


“Maybe that's the problem.” Ling Nineteen was still calm as she continued polishing her sword. Dealing with her twice with love, she said, “Fortunately, our message was sent with the secret code of the young noble. It is impossible for the contents to leak. Otherwise, everything will be bad.”


“Even if that was the case, I'm sure the young noble would be very anxious if he didn't receive any news from us.” Ling Twenty-Two said, “Brother of the Nineteen, we are too passive. If our opponent could intercept our carrier pigeons, there would definitely be ambushes along the way! If the young noble rushes here in dismay and sends reinforcements to us, he might be ambushed by our enemy! If we cause the young noble to be ambushed because we did not send him news, even if the young noble is not afraid of his enemy because of his strength, what face will we have to continue living in this world? Should we send someone to deliver the news to the young nobles? ”


Ling Nineteen thought hard. After quite some time, he shook his head and said, “The mission that the young noble gave us was to protect General Ling! This mission should be our number one priority, no matter what. We are obviously already in a dangerous situation, and it would be unwise for us to dilute our strength! We can only try to find a way to contact brother Liu. It would be best for them to resolve this matter. ”


Ling Twenty-Two then stood up anxiously, “What if the young noble chooses to come ..?”


Ling Nineteen then replied with a confident smile, “Sister, do you think there is anyone in this world who managed to ambush the young noble?”


Ling Twenty-Two was dumbfounded as he laughed out loud, “That's right! With the extraordinary abilities of the young noble, how could he be fooled by this little trick? ”


Just when Ling Nineteen wanted to reply, her expression stiffened as she stood in full alert, “What sound is that?” Ling Twenty-Two's expression changed as he descended to the ground and felt it tremble.


“Enemy attack!” Ling Twenty-Two jumps with an ugly expression, “Enemies in all directions!”


“Warn camp!”


“Iya!”


Two other figures shot out of the tent with two voices ‘swoosh’. The four of them looked at each other without saying anything and ran in four different directions. Then, a loud gong rang out and all the warriors woke up from their dreams! They are all in a daze!


“Enemy attack! Prepare to fight!” Crisp sounds could be heard in the camp as everyone woke up with heavy expressions.


The sound of horseback roaring could be heard from all directions as they charged out like a tsunami that ate up the city! Earth-shattering battle cries rang out from all directions!


Ling Nineteen quickly climbed the flagpole to get a bird's-eye view, only to see the enemy in all directions. They were densely packed like sardines with a long trail of soldiers still approaching from behind them. As Ling Nineteen watched that, she could not help but breathe in a breath of cold air!


Didn't intelligence say that there were only 200,000 enemy troops? Why did it seem like there were over 400,000 soldiers present? Where did they get all their troops? Did they fall from the sky?! Even if they fell from the sky, there was at least a sign! After all, it was not twenty people but 200,000 people!


Ling Xiao walked out of his tent quietly with his armor fully attached. This was his custom when he was in the army: even if it was peaceful, he would wear his armor to sleep. Although it is uncomfortable, time will not be delayed. With tiger-like eyes, he shouted, “What are you guys panning for? They finally appeared after waiting for so long and we just need to kill them all!” For some strange reason, all the troops immediately became calm after Ling Xiao said those words! Looking at the burly commander and their sharp gazes, Ling Xiao's personal army shouted, “Kill them all!”


Their voices spread far and wide with unrelenting echoes, “Kill them all! Kill them all! Kill it! Kill it! Kill!”


Suddenly, the frantic army camp completely calmed down. Every soldier present had gone through many battles and all of them were veterans. While they were confused at the beginning, they quickly regained their composure.


Ling Xiao then climbed onto his horse with his broad shoulders raised high on his horse. With a loud shout, he said, “I'm Ling Xiao! Listen to my orders and kill the enemy! We don't have to back off! Shit, kill them all! Our army will surely win! We are invincible! ” His voice is filled with amazing confidence and majesty!


“Roger! Our army will win! We are invincible! ” A thunderous roar resounded after Ling Xiao and the morale of the troops reached its peak! Their general's battle intent and calmness had affected all of them! The enemy is near! The closest ones are already within the range of their arrows!


Ling Nineteen and the other three surrounded Ling Xiao and heaved a sigh of relief. As long as their troops could maintain their morale, they would remain a formidable force! Although it was impossible for them to emerge victorious, it would not be too difficult for them to protect Ling Xiao and get out of this siege!


Right at this moment, something happened!


“The enemy is here! Escape!”


A commotion sounded in front of the troops in charge of the outpost and both wings of the army. There were 30,000 full troops, subordinates of Long Xiang's trusted aide. Once the commotion started, they immediately started retreating in two different directions and fleeing for their lives at a critical moment!


Therefore, Ling Xiao's army was completely hit by the enemy's attack!


300


“Jun ZiTang, Wu AiLing, Deng QuaiYan! Three b*st*rd despicable! This dad here is going to fuck your grandma!” Ling Xiao was angry to the point that he almost vomited blood! He could feel his heart throbbing from the anger and disappointment he felt.


These three men were the generals of the three armies. At first, the three of them were also the ones jumping out to persuade the others to give chase. Who would have thought the three of them would escape from the battlefield during the most critical and dangerous period!


With this sudden change, the army began to break into chaos again. After all, the veteran soldiers were still human. Many of them revealed panicked expressions as they looked around anxiously. It was as if they were looking for a way to escape.


Right at this moment, a high-pitched horn could be heard from the enemy formation and the enemy suddenly stopped their advance.


Ling Xiao sat on the back of his horse as he looked around him, looking at the endless waves of enemy troops in all directions! However, when the three traitorous troops reached the enemy siege, the enemy troops actually paved the way for them to leave safely! There is not even a need for communication and everything happens as if it was intended.


Seeing that, no matter how glazed Ling Xiao was, he immediately understood what was going on! He could only roar, “LONG XIANG! YOU FORGOT **! YOU DISAPPOINTED ME!!” His bitter voice spread far and wide. Enraged from anger, he suddenly groaned and vomited a mouthful of blood. His gaze dimmed as his body fell from the horse.


Ling Nineteen quickly darted forward and caught Ling Xiao. At the same time, he said anxiously, “General! This is not the time to get discouraged. The most important thing to do is to preserve the morale of our troops and destroy this siege. As long as we can contact the young nobles, our problems will be solved! General, you must hang in there! There are 70,000 brothers here who are counting on you. If you fall here, we'll all be ruined!”


Ling Xiao closed his eyes as his non-fine face furrowed in pain. Two traces of tears were seen flowing from the corner of his eyes. He was heartbroken to the point that he could not speak because he felt sadness in his heart.


Although he was not a smart individual, he was not a fool either. How could he not understand what had just happened? If not for the Emperor's orders, how would the three of them dare to escape from the battlefield? Furthermore, their enemies even paved the way for them to escape. This was definitely a huge conspiracy targeted at his Ling Family!


Cooperation between the two countries to eliminate the Ling Family!


No wonder all my troops are the ones I trust the most! Turns out he wanted to kill us all in one fell swoop! As Ling Xiao looked at the young faces around him who were looking at him with complete confidence, he could not help his heartache. These people were all his personal army and true elites who had been forged by many battles! Today, they will perish in the wilderness because of their own folly and their royal schemes! As a general of the army, how could Ling Xiao forgive himself?


There was only something that Ling Xiao could not understand! Even if Long Xiao was wary of the Ling Family, he shouldn't be so assertive! Joining Northern Wei to take care of the Ling Family was nothing more than eating with the tiger! Did Long Xiang really naively believe that the Sky Bearing would have the strength to contend with Northern Wei after his vitality was severely harmed from dealing with the Ling Family? Without his elite army, wouldn't the Sky Bearings just wait for their deaths? Even if Northern Wei would foolishly abide by their alliance, there were still Southern Zheng, Eastern Zhao, Western Han, and the Wu Empire eyeing them with envy. Furthermore, there were still the elite of the Xiao Family waiting.


Without the Ling Family and Ling Xiao, the Sky Bearing was like a tiger that lost its teeth. How can they protect their territory?


I don't understand! Why?!


The enemy surrounding the Sky Bearing Army stopped the arrow spacing from them and waited in silence. Apart from the calm ranks of the army, their dense killing intent surged into the sky as a mountain-like pressure pressed down on the shoulders of the Heaven Suppressing Army!


“Why don't they attack?” Ling Twenty-two's cold face was fearless. Instead, it was filled with insane battle intent!


“They are waiting for dawn! Since we are already besieged, their victory is certain. So, they waited during the day to prevent the killing of the brothers from their troops. At the same time, they also try to destroy our morale by making us wait in suspense! As for whether they have any other motives or not, we will not be able to tell at this time. ” Ling Twenty moved her lips and said with disdain.


“Should we hide and take their leader first? It should be worth it, right ?! ” Ling Twenty-Two yelling.


“No! Now that we are surrounded by over 400,000 soldiers, it is useless for us to kill a general. General Ling's safety is a top priority, and we cannot disappoint that young noble. We cannot risk anything at such a time.” Ling Twenty calmly said as she held onto the hilt of her sword.


“Mmm, brother Twenty right,” Ling Twenty-two muttered something before saying, “if that's the case, we'll let this b*st*rd live a little longer!”


However, the other commanders of Ling Xiao's army had eyes filled with despair. As men who had gone through many battles, they were already used to facing death with a smile. While these soldiers were not afraid of death, they simply did not have any confidence that they could return this time around. The situation in front of them was already extremely dire! Hearing the two brats in front of them talking about the several hundred thousand soldiers in such a carefree manner, they could not help but stare at the two of them in shock. Are these two people afraid of being silly?


“What do you guys see?” Ling Twenty suddenly shouted, “See all your cowardly expressions! Do you even have the face to declare that you are the commander of ten thousand soldiers? I'm ashamed on your behalf! If you guys are afraid of dying, why go out to lead your troops in battle? Come back and hug your wife and kids!”


The moment these words were spoken, the commanders surrounding them were all enraged as their expressions greatly changed. After all, Ling Twenty was a lowly warrior, and it was taboo to humiliate a commander like that.


“Who are you saying cowardly?” A forty-year-old commander over shouted, “Damn it! This father here has been a soldier since I was seventeen and I have been through countless battles. After killing so many enemies, I've been broke for so long! When this father went to war, you weren't even born yet! What do you know!”


“Cih!” Ling Twenty moved her lips in disdain, “Since you are not afraid of death, why do you guys have such a pitiful appearance? Are you guys singing opera?”


“Who makes a pathetic appearance?” Another commander replied, “How can some of these Northern Wei troops scare this father? What joke! You brats are probably the ones who are scared, right? Hahaha..” As he said that, he actually laughed out loud, completely forgetting the current situation!


“Who is afraid?” Ling Twenty pretended to be angry as she shouted back, “We will see who the real heroes and men among us are in battle! I'll only submit willingly if you can kill more people than me! ”


“Good!” All commanders cheered, “We will see who the hero and the real man among us are in battle! This father here will compete with you! If this father here cannot make you submit, it will be a waste of my time here! Our army will win! We are invincible!


This battle cry was heard by many warriors and they immediately echoed, “We will see who are the true heroes and men among us in battle! Our army will win! We are invincible! ”


The cries of war spread throughout the troops as thousands began to echo the cries of war together! The loud roar of the army shook the sky like thunder! The originally silent and helpless atmosphere was completely swept away! Their battle intent shot into the sky!


Our army will win! We are invincible!


Ling Nineteen revealed a smile and brandished Ling Twenty as no one looked. Ling Twenty chuckled and made a funny face in return.


Ling Nineteen remembered that the words Ling Twenty had just spoken were something they often used on the Ling Family Page. However, they will usually say, “We will see who are the true heroes and men among us in training!” Now, Ling Twenty had used those words to raise the morale of the troops and achieve an incredible effect!


Thinking of how they would be filled with energy when hearing these words in the past, Ling Nineteen could only smile reminiscing.


Ling Xiao gradually opened his eyes and straightened his back! At this moment, he had regained the majesty and prestige he had in battle! His body was filled with killing intent with his eyes burning with vigor and confidence!


Jumping back on his horse, yelling, “Brothers! Each of you already know our current situation! We have been betrayed! However, I, Ling Xiao, am not willing to accept that! Are you willing to accept that?”


“No!!” A loud roar sounded in response.


Ling Xiao's voice boomed in the night sky, “Let's kill the bloody way! I, Ling Xiao, will bring you back to teach the dog emperor a lesson! As long as you can come back alive with me, I won't treat you guys badly! However!” Ling Xiao's words suddenly turned serious, “For those who can't come back alive with me, you guys are still my brothers! Even if you are going to die, you must die a glorious death! If any of you cannot do that, even if you are in front of King Yama, I will catch you and hit you in place in front of King Yama! Did you hear me ?! ”


The army laughed out loud! Soldiers then reverberated back in unison, “Disregard that! We will die with a glorious death! Our army will win! We are invincible! ” Cheers could then be heard from the army as whistles and chatter filled the army. The entire army was filled with laughter, and they did not allow any thoughts of their imminent death to enter their hearts!


From far away in the enemy ranks, two young men wearing golden armor sat on horseback. One of them was actually the Crown Prince of Northern Wei, Wei ChengPing. The other young man was skinny and tall with a slender face and eagle-like eyes. He was surrounded by a majestic majesty, and every action was filled with elegance. With his calm appearance, he showed the disposition of an expert.


A small blood red flag was on his hand, and the surrounding troops were staring at the small flag nervously. Even Wei ChenPing was extremely respectful when facing this young man!


It seemed that this young man was the one responsible for leading the troops. Looking at this confident appearance, it seemed like he had also taken part in planning this scheme. As the Crown Prince of Northern Wei, Wei ChengPing actually acted like a small vassal in front of this young man! Who her?


SERIATE....
