Chapter 48: Selection
In the early morning of the next day, in Xu Ling's courtyard.
Huang Shibing stood in front of Xu Ling with an uneasy face. Last night, he had witnessed Xu Ling fighting with those two Xuanyin Sect disciples. In the end, he saw Xu Ling with his own eyes and cut off the arms of the two.
Until now, it was still difficult for him to calm down. You must know that those two people, but the sixfold cultivation of the True Yuan Realm, were defeated in the hands of Xu Ling, which really made him afraid of Xu Ling.
However, what made him even more uneasy was that behind those two people, there was the giant of Xuanyin Sect, and in the entire Demon Ridge, only the other three major sects and official forces could compete with it, even the royal family of Nanfeng Kingdom did not dare to offend the disciples of Xuanyin Sect easily.
And Xu Ling dared to easily injure the two of them, in his opinion, this was undoubtedly death. Of course, he was more worried about himself, in case Xu Ling was killed by the Xuanyin Sect, he would also have to die.
Thinking of this, Huang Shibing couldn't help but feel uneasy, and looked at Xu Ling with a sad face.
Xu Ling glanced at Huang Shibing expressionlessly and said, "Are you scared?"
Huang Shibing was speechless, but in his heart, he scolded Xu Ling for being a bloody dog, you want to die, but don't pull me.
"Since you're scared, then you pray that I don't have anything to do. ”
Xu Ling smiled faintly and said, "But don't worry, I, Xu Ling, didn't die so easily, and after this Dragon Gate Road, even if it is the Xuanyin Sect, if it wants to deal with me, it must be weighed." ”
"That's right, why didn't I expect that with Ling Shao's current strength, he would definitely be able to pass the assessment of the four major sects. ”
Huang Shibing's face suddenly improved, in fact, he knew Xu Ling's strength very well, if Xu Ling participated in the Dragon Gate Road, I was afraid that the four major sects, except for the Xuanyin Sect, would compete for him.
Xu Ling said lightly: "You go back first, continue to keep an eye on the Nangong family for me, if you behave well, perhaps, I will consider returning your freedom." ”
"Really?"
When Huang Shibing heard this, he couldn't help but be grateful, and said, "Ling Shao is really an adult, and the old man is grateful." ”
". ”
Xu Ling waved his hand and drove Huang Shibing away.

Imperial City, inside the arena of life and death.
In that quiet small courtyard, the woman in the black dress stood quietly in the courtyard, and there was no expression on her cold and beautiful face.
In the small courtyard, there was another person standing behind her, and this person was the old man who had fought with Xu Ling before.
"Master Yu, I didn't expect you to miss sometimes, and besides, the other party is just a little kid in the True Yuan Realm. ”
The woman in the black dress had a calm voice and couldn't hear any emotion.
However, Master Yu's face changed slightly, and there was a hint of uneasiness in his eyes, and he said: "Miss, it's not that the old slave is invincible to that kid, but that the second old ghost suddenly killed, and the old slave was also unexpected." ”
"Defeat is defeat, no excuse. ”
The woman in the black dress shook her head and said, "You have followed me for so many years, I naturally won't punish you easily, but I hope that I won't make an example." ”
"Yes!"
Yu Shi's face suddenly improved, and he bowed to the woman in the black dress, and said, "Thank you, Miss, for your forgiveness." ”
The woman in the black dress nodded and said, "You don't care about that little ghost for now, another day, I will go and meet him in person." ”
"Right now, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce, since it already knows that we are coming, will inevitably entangle with us, and besides, I heard that Chu Junyao's little girl is also in the imperial city. ”
"Therefore, we must concentrate on dealing with them, otherwise, it will be difficult for our plan to succeed. ”
The woman in the black dress said lightly, and the rain master nodded hurriedly after hearing it, although he also thought about finding another opportunity to deal with Xu Ling, but since the woman in the black dress gave the order, he could only obey.

Xu's house, inside the council hall.
Xu Cangyun sat on the seat of the head of the family, looking at everyone in the hall calmly, and beside him, sat Xu Ling with an indifferent face.
After the last big cleanup, most of the high-level officials of the Xu family who originally had something to do with Xu Cangxiong's father and son chose to submit to Xu Cangyun, and only a few people were expelled from the Xu family because they completely angered Xu Cangyun.
Therefore, the current Xu family can be said to be united, plus the Shang clan has such a demon as Xu Ling, and the whole family is famous because of him, and those big families who originally looked down on the Xu family have also changed their attitudes, because they know very well that with the talent shown by Xu Ling, they will definitely become a strong party in the future.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is one thing I would like to discuss with you at today's clan meeting. ”
Xu Cangyun's eyes were blazing, he looked at the high-level people in the hall, and said: "I think you all know that in a few days, the road to Longmen will come, and at this time of year, it is the time for the young generation of my Xu family to show their talents, and this year, naturally, is no exception." ”
"Therefore, this clan meeting, I want to determine the people in the clan who will participate in the Dragon Gate Festival. ”
Xu Cangyun said that, everyone in the hall suddenly quietly discussed, and some of the young disciples of the Xu family were even more eager to try, looking forward to being selected by the head of the family.
"Ling'er, do you have a candidate in mind?" Xu Cangyun looked at Xu Ling beside him.
Xu Ling smiled slightly and said, "It's all up to my father to decide this matter, but I would like to recommend someone." ”
"Who is it?" Xu Cangyun asked with some confusion.
Xu Ling looked at the group of young disciples in the hall and said, "Xu Chuan, come out." ”
"Yes, young master. ”
As soon as Xu Ling's voice fell, Xu Chuan stood up from the crowd.
"It turned out to be Xu Chuan! How could he be favored by Young Master Ling?"
"Yes, I remember that he had challenged Young Master Ling at the clan meeting before, but why was he favored by Young Master Ling. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, this kid was originally Xu Jinxuan's person, what did Young Master Ling think?"
......
As Xu Chuan came out of the ranks, there were bursts of discussion in the hall.
However, Xu Ling ignored everyone's gaze and said, "Xu Chuan, this time on the Dragon Gate Road, you can participate with me." ”
"Yes, much... Thank you, young master!"
Xu Chuan didn't expect that he would be able to get a place. In fact, because of the previous incident, he had always been unpopular in the Xu family, but now, Xu Ling actually gave him the opportunity, which really moved him, and he bowed deeply to Xu Ling.
"Ling'er, are you sure you want to choose this kid?"
Although Xu Cangyun knew that Xu Chuan had followed Xu Ling, he was still a little dissatisfied because of Xu Chuan's mistakes before.
You must know that the quota of the Dragon Gate Road is extremely precious for every teenager in the clan, because it is related to their future achievements, and it is also related to the prosperity of the Xu family.
Xu Ling smiled slightly, he naturally saw his father's thoughts, however, in the entire Xu family, maybe only he knew Xu Chuan, after these days of hard cultivation, Xu Chuan not only practiced that set of flame palms to the fullest, but also stepped into the sevenfold condensation qi, such a strength, already qualified to participate in the Dragon Gate Road.
Of course, what Xu Lingzhi did was more because of Xu Chuan's previous undercover Golden Wolf Gang.
"Father, don't worry, I can guarantee that this kid will never dare to betray the family in the future. ”
In order to dispel the concerns in Xu Cangyun's heart, Xu Ling had to pat his chest and promise.
"Well, since you insist, then it's up to you. ”
Although Xu Cangyun was a little reluctant, he still relied on Xu Ling.
"Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't have an opinion, then it's up to me to announce the candidates for this time. ”
Xu Cangyun's gaze fell on the young people again, and then, he took out a note from his bosom, and the names were written on the note, these people were all candidates agreed upon by him and several elders in the clan.
Next, Xu Cangyun began the roll call, and under his reading, several teenagers stood up.
In this Longmen event, the Li family has determined a total of eight places, in addition to Xu Ling and Xu Chuan, there are still six places left, and these six teenagers are all the strongest among the young people of the Li family.
"You all listen, in three days, you will go to Nantian Square, and at that time, there will naturally be four envoys to pick you up and take part in the assessment. ”
"On the road of the Dragon Gate this time, you must do your best to enter the sect and win glory for my Li family. ”
Xu Cangyun looked at Xu Ling and several teenagers, his eyes were full of expectation, of course, he was more hopeful, hoping that Xu Ling could soar into the sky.
Xu Ling also longed in his heart to be able to enter the sect as soon as possible and end the grievances between him and Nangong Allure as soon as possible.
............
After the clan meeting, Xu Ling returned to his other courtyard, taking advantage of these few days, he had to break through the double of the True Yuan Realm to have absolute certainty and sweep all the talents.
However, at this moment, a figure came directly to the courtyard.
"Ling Shao, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”
The person who came was the third prince, and he walked up to Xu Ling with a smile and said, "I heard that you are going to participate in this Dragon Gate event. ”
"That's right. ”
Xu Ling smiled slightly, he didn't care about the uninvited arrival of the third prince, after these days of communication, he had already recognized the friend of the third prince.
"Then you have to be careful this time. ”
The third prince said with a serious face: "I heard that this year's Dragon Gate Festival, but there are a lot of great geniuses, although your strength is very strong, but you can't be careless." ”
"Really?"
Xu Ling smiled faintly and said, "Why don't you tell me." ”
The third prince nodded and said, "I don't know about other neighboring countries, just our Nanfeng Kingdom, there are several, and the strength doesn't seem to be weaker than yours." ”
"For example, the first young master of the Imperial City, the No Regrets Sword, it is said that he has broken through the fivefold True Yuan Realm, and he has even cultivated a set of yellow-level superb martial arts, coupled with his terrifying talent, the ordinary True Yuan Realm sixfold martial artist is not his opponent. ”
"There is also the second-ranked Xiu Wuya, and the third-ranked Zhou Mang, as well as my imperial sister, their cultivation is also quite profound. ”
The third prince said and looked at Xu Ling with some concern.
"What about you?"
When Xu Ling heard this, he was not too surprised, but looked at the third prince lightly.
The third prince was stunned for a moment, and then smiled again: "Well, I'll naturally participate, but when the time comes, please take care of Ling Shao." ”
Xu Ling smiled slightly, he naturally knew that the cultivation of the third prince was not inferior to the ninth princess, and the reason why he said this was mostly modest.
"The third prince is polite. ”
Xu Ling said politely, and then said, "You won't be here to tell me this today, are you?" ”
"Hehe...... the third prince said with some embarrassment: "Ling Shao is really wise, I really have something to ask you for help with this time." ”
"Say it. Xu Ling looked at the third prince lightly.
The third prince smiled and said, "That... I've been practicing that spirit cultivation technique recently, and I feel that my spiritual power has improved a lot, so I want you to accompany me to the Spirit Tattoo Master Guild to test my cultivation. ”
"Yes. ”
Xu Ling smiled slightly, in fact, he had already seen that the spiritual cultivation of the third prince was just a one-star spiritual disciple, but if he said it himself, he might not believe it.
Subsequently, he left the Xu family with the third prince.
