Chapter XVIII: The Meaning of Marriage
"The motive for revenge killing is the most common, so Ling Yu is the most suspicious.
But would a person who wants to kill someone be so stupid that people can guess who he is at once? Shouldn't we wait for the incident to subside and people forget about it?
Not to mention that I had been guarding Ling Yu that night, even if he really had this opportunity, would he do it? Am I going to let him do it again? “
The Great Elder nodded slightly, motioning for Ling Xiao to continue
"Besides, does he have the ability to kill Ling Si'er?"
"And who do you think will kill you?" The Great Elder's eyes were like lightning, and he asked Ling Xiao.
"It feels like you're killing someone!"
Ling Xiao came to this conclusion abruptly.
"You mean to say that the Xuancaotang case has a great relationship with Ling Si'er's killing?"
"This is true of the available evidence."
"So, this matter was sent by the Third Elder?"
Ling Xiao was silent, in fact, he was just talking about the facts, and he was analyzing it purely from the existing evidence.
He doubted his son twice, and denied it twice.
So far, it has been completely ruled out, so he can analyze the current case more objectively.
"It seems that I need to have a good chat with the third elder..."
The Great Elder seemed to be talking to himself, then turned his head and said to Ling Xiao again:
"Ling Xiao, I know that you are honest and steady. For so many years, I have been diligent, doing my duty, and never forming a party for personal gain, which has won my heart?"
"Thank you Great Elder for the compliment, Ling Xiao is ashamed!"
The Great Elder waved his hand, signaling that Ling Xiao did not need to be too humble, and then said:
"However, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, and the three elders have the intention of replacing me due to the gradual expansion of their power, and a big war is probably inevitable.
There is a way, under the nest, how can there be eggs? With the three elders in charge of Xingyue City, can he spare you and me?
No way! So you and I should have prepared early! “
"Do the Third Elder really have such guts?"
"Do you think anyone can be as indifferent to power as you are?
Power is a magic wand, and once it is tainted with it, it will be trapped in it...
The current Third Elder is like this, he can't wait anymore, kill me, wouldn't it be good for him to be in power alone? “
"He's already a law enforcement elder, isn't it enough?"
"It's not enough, the most difficult thing in the world to fill is human desire!
If you don't beat him again, he won't know who the real master of Xingyue City is! “
Speaking of this, the Great Elder's gray beard floated up, and it was obvious that he had already moved to kill!
"Ling Xiao, you must help me this time!
If such a person harbors evil intentions exists for a day, Star-Moon City will be more dangerous.
If I am killed by the Third Elder, he will not let you be the city lord again, and at that time, maybe he will not do anything and kill you! “
Ling Xiao knew that the words of the Great Elder were true.
These three elders were not in harmony with him, and often relied on their identity as law enforcement elders to dictate Ling Xiao's work as city lords.
Ling Xiao also endured it, hoping to take a step back and open the sky, who knew that the three elders were close to an inch, and they actually took over a lot of the work of the city lord.
From that moment on, Ling Xiao knew that the three elders were going to make a move, and to this day, it was true.
"Ling Yu is very worried about the way he is now, the Great Elder asked me to think about it..."
Over the years, he has been caught between the seven elders and dealt with it carefully, not cultivating his own power, the purpose is not to be suspicious.
Who knows that as the Great Elder said, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop!
Ling Yu went crazy in practice, and his meridians were all wasted!
This may seem like an accidental event, but there is an inevitability in it.
Ling Yu's performance was too sharp, it had already caused uneasiness from all sides, at the age of thirteen, he was at the fifth level of Xuan Qi, was this worth it?
The Great Elder is the highest cultivator in Star Moon City, and he is in his fifties this year, and he is only the tenth level of the top Feng in the late stage of the Xuan Qi Period.
And he has not broken through the bottleneck and entered the Yuan realm, and if he continues like this, I am afraid that there will be no hope in this life.
Ling Yu was different, a cultivation genius who was rare in a hundred years, with his cultivation speed, it was very likely that he would be able to break through to the Yuan Realm at the age of twenty!
At that time, he would be able to clean up the Seven Great Elders alone, how could he not be jealous?
Ling Xiao didn't suspect that in Ling Yu's matter, someone was secretly doing something, but he couldn't find evidence, what could he do?
This person's methods are extremely secretive, and even Ling Xiao didn't find any clues.
If you can't find evidence, you can't arrest someone, knowing that it's one of the seven elders, and all of them are suspicious, but they can't find out!
Ling Xiao also thought about letting go of everything, leaving this place with his wife and son, a quiet place for me, and living the life of ordinary people...
But Ling Yu's mother has always been in poor health, and Ling Yu also needs to be treated with medicine, which requires a lot of Xuanshi and silver...
If you don't be the lord of this city, you can only maintain the expenses of this family if you rob it.
Because apart from having a ninth-level Xuan Qi cultivation, he doesn't know how to make money anymore.
In order for Ling Yu to be able to go down to the ground, he devoted almost all of his energy to finding a doctor for Ling Yu.
For this reason, he spent almost all of his family's savings, and he also owed a large amount of Xuanshi in the Great Elder's pharmacy.
The Xuanshi that the clan put for him in the next ten years probably doesn't need to be withdrawn, and all the great elders can send someone to collect it on their behalf.
The sky pays off, and after two years, Ling Yu can finally walk on the ground!
And his prestige among the clan has also dropped to the lowest point...
And this Ling Xiao didn't care at all, all he cared about was Ling Yu.
This time, the unexpected recovery of Ling Yu's Xuan Qi rekindled Ling Xiao's hope for a new life, at least, Ling Yu once again had the capital to save his life!
The appointment between Ling Yu and Ling Si'er, Ling Xiao went early in the morning, earlier than Ling Yu.
He didn't want Ling Yu to show his true strength, in order to avoid arousing the suspicion of the higher-ups, so he was involved in the Xuancaotang case.
He was also worried that Ling Yu would have an accident, so he said that it depended on the situation, but he went to the martial arts arena early.
As a result, Ling Yu really had an accident just as he feared.
He even felt that Ling Yu was lying to him, and the Xuanqi level 3 he revealed was just a trick, just to comfort him.
Who can have such a great ability to raise a person without Xuan Qi to the third level in less than half a month?
After Ling Yu was seriously injured, Ling Xiao's heart once again raised his throat, what is more important than Ling Yu's matter now?
Ling Yu is his untouchable bottom line, if he can't even protect his own son, what does this city lord do?
Ling Xiao was really shaken this time, it was not safe to just retreat, so there was only an attack!
When the Great Elder saw that Ling Xiao was moved, he struck while the iron was hot:
"You don't have to worry about Ling Yu's affairs, I only have one granddaughter, Shuang'er, and everything I have will give her in the future.
Now our two families are married, and everything I have will be Ling Yu's in the future! What do you think of this? “
