Volume 1: The Beginning of the Storm Chapter 2: A Different Attitude

Ye Xiao and Ling Xueyao were naturally familiar with that old voice. The owner of the voice is undoubtedly the Ling family's current big butler - Ling Fu.

Ling Fu watched the two of them grow up, and the two of them were also quite close and dependent on Ling Fu. When they saw Ling Fu, the two of them would be long and short and shouting.

"Grandpa Fu is here. As soon as she heard the voice, Ling Xueyao hurriedly went over and opened the door. The door opened lightly, and a lurking face appeared outside the door.

Ling Fu's appearance was not much different from fifteen years ago. If he had to say yes, it would be that he felt a little older. After all, the years are not forgiving, and fifteen years is not a short period of time for him.

"Grandpa Fu, come in and sit. Ling Xueyao grabbed Ling Fu's sleeve and invited Ling Fu into the house in a milky voice.

"Xue Yao, you're also there. ”

Seeing this baby girl who was like his own granddaughter, Ling Fu's face was already smiling with joy. In front of others, several of them are known as young masters, young ladies and housekeepers on the surface, but they are too close in private. Seeing Ling Xueyao being coquettish, Ling Fu happily followed her into the house, and concluded in his mouth: "Since Xue Yao, your little girl is here, Xiao'er must also get up." ”

Ling Fu picked the nearest mahogany stool and sat down, and as soon as his voice fell, Ye Xiao also hurriedly came over to greet Ling Fu: "Grandpa Fu, please come over early in the morning." ”

Looking at his baby grandson and baby granddaughter, Ling Fu was indescribably happy in his heart.

"Why did Grandpa Fu come here in person?"

Hearing their question, Ling Fu gradually restrained his smile, his expression was serious, and he said seriously: "Xiao'er, Xue Yao, remember to go with Tianhao to greet that elder later." ”

The Tianhao in Ling Fu's mouth is naturally Ling Tianhao, the current head of the Ling family.

Seeing Ling Fu's face, Ye Xiao and Ling Xueyao instantly understood the importance of this matter, but they couldn't help but be curious in their hearts. What kind of high-powered swordsman can actually let the two big figures of the Ling family greet him in person, and he is sincerely afraid: "Grandpa Fu, what kind of identity is this swordsman, why do you and your father need to pay so much attention to it?"

Ling Fu seemed to know that the two of them would ask this question, and he didn't sell it: "That sword master is an elder from Canglan Academy. ”

"The elders of the Canglan Courtyard?!" both exclaimed at the same time.

For the Ling family, today is an extremely important day. Because today, there will be a venerable kendo cultivator who will come to the Ling family as a sword master and teach kendo. This is a great honor in Canglan City. Just the fact that the sword master taught the sword naturally couldn't make much waves. The important thing is that the terrifying identity of the sword cultivator who came today - Elder Canglan!

Canglan City is located in the northern part of the Tianqin Dynasty, and there are two other cities around it: Cangzhou City and Lanzhou City. This land close to the endless snow region is vast and sparsely populated, so just these three cities occupy a large area of land north of the Tianqin Dynasty. This land, in the Tianqin Dynasty, also has another name called "Canglan Domain". And this Canglan Courtyard is the guarding force of the Canglan Domain.

The Canglan Courtyard was established by the imperial court of the Tianqin Dynasty, and the head of the courtyard was directly appointed by the current Tianqin Emperor. For the Canglan Courtyard in the Canglan Domain, the imperial court naturally attaches great importance to it. Every few years, several powerful people are sent to take up residence here. In the Canglan Courtyard, most of the top martial arts masters in Canglan City, Cangzhou City, and Lanzhou City are gathered. The status and influence of Canglan Academy in the Canglan region can be imagined.

For Canglan Courtyard, the Ling family was too small, which had to attract the attention of all the high-level leaders of the Ling family. And the sword master who came to the Ling family today was actually an elder in a high position in the Canglan Courtyard.

What a sensation this will be.

"It turned out to be the sword master elder of Canglan Academy. Ye Xiao naturally didn't expect that his identity would be so noble and terrifying.

"That's why the old man came to tell you in person. "Ling Fu was able to come over in person, Ye Xiao and Ling Xueyao were naturally extremely grateful. As the highest-ranking young generation of the Ling family, the two should naturally not be absent.

"Xiao'er, thank you Grandpa Fu. ”

"Xue Yao also thanked Grandpa Fu. ”

"In that case, the old man won't sit much, so let's hurry up and check again. Ling Fu stood up, didn't stay long, and left quickly after being sent out of the door by the two.

"Xue Yao, in that case, it's better for the two of us to go over as soon as possible. "Something that Ling Tianhao and Ling Fu both attached great importance to, Ye Xiao naturally didn't dare to be sloppy in the slightest, and decided to leave immediately.

"Mmmm, Xue Yao can go with Brother Xiao again. Out of the room, Ling Xueyao took Ye Xiao's strong arm and held it firmly in her arms, which seemed to be familiar with it.

Her incomparably skillful intimate movements made Ye Xiao suddenly embarrassed, and she cautiously whispered tentatively: "Xue Yao, you are no longer a child. Holding my brother like this again is going to be laughed at by others. ”

"Just laugh, I don't care. ”

Ling Xueyao didn't let this go at all, and didn't care at all: "Anyway, in Brother Xiao's eyes, Xue Yao is a little girl who can't grow up. Gossip, listen to it and there will be no less meat, let others say it's good. ”

After Ling Xueyao finished speaking, the arm wrapped around Ye Xiao hugged her tighter.

It seems that in the future, I will have to discuss with Xue Yao, a girl, and discuss the truth that men and women are not kissed. Ye Xiao had no choice but to let her hold it like this, and walked towards the direction where the Ling family's compound was located.

Ye Xiao and Ling Xueyao hadn't left the small courtyard far, and there were two other people walking towards them in front of them.

One of them is a teenager who is similar in age to Ye Xiao. He was burly and gorgeously dressed, followed by an old man in a black robe with gray hair. This old man makes people feel as unfathomable as the sea, and at a glance he knows that he is a master. Being able to have a master as a bodyguard by his side is enough to show the noble status of the young man in the Ling Mansion.

This young man, who is actually three and a half years older than Ye Xiao, is the only son of Ling Tianhao's second brother and the second head of the Ling family, named Ling Yun. The name of the son is given in the hope that he can have Lingyun's ambition in the future and achieve an extraordinary life. And Ling Yun did not live up to the high expectations of his family, at the age of only eighteen and a half, he became a martial artist in the Xuanling Realm, and he also studied the way of the gun.

Even in the entire Canglan City, Ling Yun was among the top few genius youths. Those who can surpass him may not be more than half a hand.

Although the two are theoretically cousins, as the real sons of the Ling family, Ling Yun has never recognized Ye Xiao's identity as a member of the Ling family, and sometimes even speaks sarcastically.

Sure enough, after the two groups of people met, Ling Yun couldn't help but sneer at Ye Xiao: "Yo, isn't this Ye Xiao's cousin?

"That's right, after all, you're a picked up son, and you're just an outsider. I hope you will be reincarnated as a descendant of the Ling family in your next life, and you can be regarded as a dog of the Ling family if you say it. ”

Ling Yun smiled contemptuously, smug at the perfect line he had just said.

"Ling Yun, when you see your family, you speak sarcastically, this is the style of your young master of the Ling family? Do you still have the family rule of the Ling family's 'love for each other' in your eyes?" Ye Xiao asked sharply, his tone was tough, and he didn't let it go at all.

"You really take yourself seriously. A person who can't even cultivate spiritual power can only be a shrinking turtle for the rest of his life and become a waste behind others. still wanting to be a member of my Ling family is a big joke. ”

Ling Yun was dismissive of this: "That's it, I'm a noble Ling Gongzi, don't worry too much about you wild child." ”

Seeing his ugly face, Ling Xueyao beside Ye Xiao naturally couldn't help but lose her temper: "Ling Yun, shut your mouth." Brother Xiao is not what you think, he is a very good person. At least...... At least better than you. ”

"Ling Xueyao, for the sake of you being the biological daughter of the Ling family, let me remind you, don't get too close to Ye Xiao, a wild child. Otherwise, you won't have time to cry. Ling Yun sneered after speaking, unimpressed by Ling Xueyao's words.

Ling Yun didn't say anything more, his gaze shifted and he walked away. The black-robed old man followed his footsteps closely, and as he walked by, he seemed to look at the eldest young master beside him, with a look of disdain in his eyes.

"Brother Xiao, Lingyun has always been arrogant. Don't take his words to heart, just take them to ear. Seeing Ling Yun and the two of them go away, Ling Xueyao hurriedly spoke comfortingly. She also knows that in this wealthy family, family affection can never compare to power and status.

"It's okay Xue Yao, just think that there is a dog barking in my ear, this little thing is nothing. Ye Xiao was very calm and did not be depressed and silent.

On the Hongzu Continent, what people cultivate is a power called spiritual power. The degree of spiritual power determines the level of cultivation, and it is the standard for dividing the realm into high and low.

The spiritual power realm of a warrior is divided into nine major realms, namely the mortal spirit realm, the Xuan spirit realm, the Yuan spirit realm, the earth spirit realm, the heavenly spirit realm, the venerable spirit realm, the king spirit realm, the emperor spirit realm, and the ancestral spirit realm, which is known as the pinnacle of human beings! In these nine great realms, each great realm is divided into ten small realms.

As for whether there were other realms above the Ancestral Spirit Realm, no one dared to make a conclusion. Because on the Hongzu Continent, it seems that no one has ever been able to climb to such heights.

Ling Tianhao, the current head of the Ling family, is a ten-fold martial arts powerhouse in the Earth Spirit Realm, and he is only one step away from the next level of the Heavenly Spirit Realm. As the steward of the Ling family, Ling Fu has also reached the strength of the eightfold earth spirit realm, and he is also a force to be reckoned with in the Ling family. And the previous Ling Yun also had the dual level of the Xuanling Realm. Although he is in the Xuanling Realm at the bottom of the martial arts realm, among the younger brothers of the Ling family, he is the first person who deserves to be the first.

Only Ye Xiao, who has never even stepped into the mortal spirit realm!

When Ye Xiao was ten years old, Ling Tianhao planned to teach him to cultivate spiritual power, and was ready to start passing on his martial arts. But unexpectedly, Ye Xiao never had any spiritual power reaction in his body. Later, Ling Tianhao even did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to find famous doctors all over the world, but in the end, he had to come to an indisputable fact:

"Your son's spiritual veins are intact, but his spiritual power has not appeared, but it is due to ...... The Spirit House is depleted. ”
