The Rebirth of the Legendary King
Seeing The Two of them Holding Hands

Among that group of people, Cheng Rui only knew the Head of the Xiao Family. When he thought about this, he realized that something was wrong.

To be able to get the Xiao Family Head to intervene, it should be the guest he invited today. The status of the guest was definitely not low.

Maybe it was a group of influential people overseas. Those people are chatting here. However, they definitely did not expect to be bothered by these three people. That was the reason for Cheng Rui's quick reflexes.

Although they heard nothing, but appearing suddenly here was not a good thing.

"Miss Zhuo, I went to see the Shi Family, but they didn't agree right away" Long Hua said. He stood beside Zhuo Nan and turned his back to Ling. Previously, he wanted to wait for Zhuo Xia and the others to descend, then he would follow them. However, due to an important matter, Zhuo Nan forbade him to come along.

Zhuo Xia did not respond at all. He looked to the side, towards the door. His deep eyes were like bottomless holes.

Zhuo Xia poured the rest of his wine. Then, he said softly to the Xiao Family Head, "Master Xiao, you need not be too hesitant. Although we are not involved in the world of potions, it is not difficult to build a single place in the center of overseas for you."

Not only Long Hua, even Zhuo Nan and the Head of the Xiao Family were also shocked.

Although Ling was familiar with Lingxi, but a personal request like this, could not risk such a big problem.

Long Hua did not know what they were discussing in the study, but she knew clearly if they did not come to an agreement. Why did he suddenly agree? This change is truly surprising.

Zhuo Nan suddenly regained her senses from her daydream and glanced to the side. He saw a figure facing the door. His eyes immediately widened.

"This ... he .. is actually ... this person ...," Zhuo Nan did not speak properly because she was very nervous. He thinks he saw it wrong.

Long Hua also glanced at the three people. His face immediately became serious, "What are the three of you doing here?"

"Sorry, bother you. We will be leaving soon" Cheng Rui said followed by a nod of Shi Jiu. They did not know the name of the woman leaning on the door, but they recognized the symbol on Zhuo Nan's collar.

However, Ling did not move.

His eyes slowly stared at the empty wine glass. It would be hypocritical to say he was not surprised. Although many things were happening on this island, he really did not expect that Zhuo Xia would care about such a small matter, which was the matter about wine.

Seeing Ling still motionless and continuing to stare at Zhuo Xia, Long Hua was confused whether to praise Ling or should ridicule him because he was too confident. Finally, he just smiled cynically and ignored her. He already understood Zhuo Xia's style.

Ling's sleeves were pulled by Cheng Rui. He thought it better to leave this place immediately. The atmosphere around the group was wrong. Especially the leader of the group.

Zhuo Xia saw if he really made a move and seemed to be leaving. He really wanted to laugh, but his heart felt extremely angry. He clasped his glass until the sound of 'cracks' was heard'.

Zhuo Nan who saw Zhuo Xia almost smash his glass, he knew that Zhuo Xia was really angry. Zhuo Nan himself knew very well that Zhuo Xia had only drunk wine a few times this year.

Zhuo Nan lowered her head. He really could not face these two Great Bosses.

Meanwhile, Long Hua was not too surprised to see Ling leaving. Even Long Hua felt a little regretful for not seeing Ling made Zhuo Xia angry completely. He said to provoke, "Miss Zhuo, Mister Xiao, let's find somewhere else. We better avoid some of these fools."

However, before Ling took a step, he realized that someone had grabbed his left hand.

Ling was not surprised. He turned his head and looked at the person behind him. More precisely, his gaze was still fixed on the glass in his hand.

"Miss Zhuo?" the people from the Xiao Family and Long Hua were extremely shocked. They had never expected Zhuo Xia to do such a thing.

However, the Xiao Family Head instantly recognized Ling. His eyes twinkled, "Young Master Chen! I've just told Miss Zhuo if I'll see you later. I didn't expect you to come now. But it's also good."

Shi Jiu and Cheng Rui could not understand the situation yet. All they knew was that the Xiao Family Head seemed to have great respect for Ling.

Ling nodded at the Xiao Family Head, "Yes, Mister Xiao. Long time no see."

Then, Ling looked at Zhuo Xia, "Miss Zhuo?"

Zhuo Xia was wearing a black shirt with matching pants. His pitch-black eyes looked at the glass in his hand. His hands were clutching the glass even more.

"Miss Zhuo? Chen Ling, try calling me that again" Zhuo Xia sneered.

Ling knew that he could not escape. Then, he said to Shi Jiu and Cheng Rui who were still shocked behind him, "You two just go back first. There's something I need to take care of."

"Oh, okay, alright," Cheng Rui replied stiffly. He nodded and pulled Shi Jiu's hand.

As he walked, he could not help but look at Zhuo Xia with curiosity. So did Shi Jiu who was staring at Zhuo Xia curiously.

However, Zhuo Xia gave a cold look at them.

Zhuo Nan understood now. He turned to the people from the Xiao Family and said, "Master Xiao, let's go up and discuss this cooperation. Young Miss actually never cared too much about this."

Then, the people from the Xiao Family left. Some people who knew Ling, they even bowed respectfully to him before leaving.

Zhuo Nan also started to move, but she saw Long Hua still speechless there. He stood there looking at Ling with a terrible expression. To be more precise, he saw the two of them holding hands.

"Long Hua, let's follow me," Zhuo Nan glanced at him gently and called out to him.

After everyone left, Zhuo Nan closed the door carefully.

Zhuo Xia threw the cracked glass into a nearby trash can. However, his eyes never left Ling.

Ling tried to calm himself down and could only sigh, "Drinking alcohol is wrong."

However, he also made mistakes, so his speech was not very confident.

Zhuo Xia's eyes remained cold, but his face looked a little thin. Compared to before, it looked even sharper. I don't know which part, but with one look can feel the difference. However, his attitude was still indifferent.

Zhuo Xia draped his arm around Ling's neck, pulling him closer. Ling felt a faint smell of alcohol, not too strong.

Ling hugged his waist and Zhuo Xia increasingly pulled him. The fragrance still remains the same, is very refreshing, and may smell a bit of alcohol. The smell of alcohol that is not too strong indicates that he rarely drank alcohol during the past year.

For some reason, the word 'again' made Ling smile bitterly.

Long Hua and the others just stayed away, but did not leave. They all looked at Zhuo Nan. Long Hua asked, "Who was that young man?"

Cheng Rui and Shi Jiu did not leave either. They were waiting for Zhuo Nan's reply.

Zhuo Nan did not immediately reply. He simply looked at Shi Jiu and suddenly said, "You've been with Young Master Chen for the past 3 days, right?"

It had actually been four days since Ling left the mountain and was troubled by Zhuo Shiaonian. Shi Jiu felt the person in front of him was very familiar with Ling. So, he answered honestly and did not hide it.

"That's right," Shi Jiu replied.

"It turns out so. With Young Master Chen at hand, those people are by no means a threat to you guys," Zhuo Nan replied nodding. Initially, he felt a bit strange as Zhuo Xia took out a silver needle from the person's body. Now, it doesn't look strange at all.

Zhuo Nan looked very calm. He did not answer Long Hua's question and just said that.

The others who were there did not understand. But Shi Jiu and Cheng Rui knew what the Shi Family was up against a few days ago. They both look at each other. Even after Zhuo Nan left, they remained confused for a long time.

"Young Miss, Miss Cheng, have you not returned yet? Where is Young Master Chen?" ask the Shi Family elder who suddenly came. He felt strange when he saw the two of them standing in a daze. Moreover Ling was not with them.

Shi Jiu looked at the elder, "Elder, elder, was it Young Master Chen who saved us that day?"

"When?" shi Jiu's sudden question left elder Shi shocked because Ling had saved them earlier. However, seeing Shi Jiu's expression, he suddenly understood what Shi Jiu was talking about.

After thinking about it, he immediately realized that what was meant was the incident while in the cave. Suddenly everything became clear.

The elder replied, "That's right! I am also still wondering which mysterious cultivator saved us. If it was indeed Young Master Chen, it should have been natural. Holy hooch! I'm really stupid! That day, Young Master Chen did indeed save us from the destruction of that mountain. He must have felt it. He's not tired at all and just wants to save us!"

"Where is Young Master Chen now?" asked Elder Shi in a slight whisper. He held his voice.

"Young Miss, Miss Cheng, Young Master Chen seems kind to you. Don't waste this opportunity and make friends with the stronger ones" elder Shi said.

As the elder said this, Cheng Rui and Shi Jiu understood his point.

Cheng Rui thought, "This is an actual strong cultivator. The confession of others is no longer important."

It was indeed a good idea, but they had not thought of making friends with him. They just feel excited. He was one of the people who would stand at the top of overseas.

The elder also thought of being even better at him. If there was a chance, he would make Ling have a good impression on him.

*

Ling had no idea what those people were thinking. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care. He was currently going to the Xiao Family laboratory with Zhuo Xia.

Lingxi wanted to take a bath first, but when she returned to her room, someone told her if Ling had gone to the laboratory. He immediately put on his lab coat and ran to the lab, without even combing his hair.

The people from the Xiao Family looked at Lingxi in awe. He was the one who had developed the KKR-9 virus.

When he entered, Ling had not arrived. Just as he was about to pick up Ling, someone from the Potion God Association sent him a message.

Lingxi thought for a moment. He felt that he could not offend the Potion God Association right now. So, he took his cell phone that was brought by his subordinates.

Since the Potion God Association was a huge figure in the herb world, naturally they had their own secret base. In the world of potions, there were only a few outstanding laboratories. The laboratories were often used for meetings and brainstorming.

Lingxi answered the call from the Potion God Association. A voice rang out, "Lingxi, tell me the truth. Did your family really develop the virus? Even our Miss can't!"

In the laboratory of the Potion God Association, a large group of people jostled to hear the conversation within that phone. They sharpen their hearing.

The white-bearded old man holding the phone looked even more dignified, so no one dared to get too close to him. However, it also turns on the speaker so that everyone can hear it.

Lingxi answered gently. She leaned against the door and played her hair, "That's right. You can send someone to check on her."

Lingxi couldn't possibly lie to a highly respected person from the Potion God Association. And that's not necessary either.

"Lingxi, don't lie to me! Your family didn't even participate in this year's potion world meeting. You don't even know what that disease is, do you? Otherwise, why would you still invite Miss Zhuo Shiaonian?" said the old man. The people from the Potion God Association were also still unable to believe it. The Xiao family only needed to work hard for a year and did not even bother to attend the annual potion meeting to develop the virus?

Who's gonna believe this?

Their God Potion Association was the strongest.

Lingxi smirked lazily and glanced out the window. A figure slowly approached the laboratory. His eyes sparkled, but he remembered calling, "Do you know KKR-9?"

The people from the Potion God Association were instantly silent. Although it was a secret of the Xiao Family, some of them had heard about what happened a few days ago. Right now, they were suppressing prestige and nodding in acknowledging it.

"Do you know who was the first to propose this?" ask Lingxi again.

"Who?" ask the old man.

Lingxi replied in a very slow voice.

Most people in the lab can't hear it. They looked at the white-bearded old man, "Big Master, what did Lingxi just say?"

Unexpectedly, it turned out that the white-bearded old man was stunned. He only realized from his daydream when someone rebuked him.

"Is something wrong?" ask people to worry.

The white-bearded old man looked at them and replied softly, "Tell the Great Physician if he's back."
