Gradually, the crimson of the west faded, and the sky gradually darkened.

In the ancestral hall, incense continued to burn, white smoke lingered, and the dim light of the surrounding lights appeared.

The ancestral hall was shrouded in black, and the silence was a little scary.

In front of the spiritual seat, two people stood side by side.

Ling Xuan's face was solemn, and Ling Wu was also serious and expressionless. Neither of them spoke, quietly, their eyes fixed on a special spiritual seat in front of them.

The special thing about a spiritual position is not its appearance, but its significance.

Ling Xuan broke the silence of the moment and said, "Father, when I was a child, you said that I was still young, and now that I have grown up, can you tell me about my mother's concubine?"

Ling Wu didn't answer what Ling Xuan said, he still stood quietly, his eyes still on the spirit seat, and he didn't look away.

No one knew what Ling Wu was thinking.

After another moment, Ling Wu spoke, his eyes not moving.

"When I led the army to the Demon Domain, at that time, your mother was pregnant with you, and your mother said that she wanted to go with me. At that time, I was arrogant, thinking that the Demon Domain was not enough to fear, so I brought your mother concubine, who knows, the war between humans and demons will be half a year. ”

The soft words sounded in the ancestral hall, and Ling Wu's eyes gradually filled with tears, and with a blink, the tears receded.

Ling Wu paused, and then said: "Later, the army of the Celestial Empire marched forward bravely, like a bamboo, and defeated the Demon Domain, I was complacent, and the whole army celebrated. What I didn't expect was that in the middle of the night, a demon army squad suddenly sneaked into the barracks, killed people when they saw them, which caught us off guard, and in the chaos, your mother was brutally killed, when I saw you, your little face was stained with blood, and your body was also stained with demonic energy, that was the first time I saw you, but in such a scene. ”

When he said this, he could see that Ling Wu's face twitched slightly, his eyes were empty, and his heart was full of guilt and self-blame.

Hearing this, Ling Xuan was stunned, and then he realized that the black mist in his body was actually demonic. At this moment, Ling Xuan had not only demonic qi in his heart, but also hatred, hatred for the Demon Domain.

Immediately after, Ling Xuan said lightly: "So, the demonic qi is the reason why I can't open the pulse. ”

Ling Wu nodded, "This demonic qi is unusual, it contains a huge amount of energy, if it is just a demonic qi that invades the body, it will not be so strong, it can be seen that this demonic qi is not ordinary." Later, I tried to get rid of this demonic energy, but I couldn't do anything, and after the witch doctor checked it, he also shook his head, and then in order to prevent the demonic energy from affecting your mind, he took you into the demon, and let you meditate, which is also the reason why you were sent to the two-sleeved villa. ”

I see.

After listening, Ling Xuan was silent for a long time.

Seeing Ling Xuan like this, Ling Wu's eyes were full of pity, he approached Ling Xuan and patted Ling Xuan on the shoulder, "Xuan'er, with the strength of our Xuanwang Mansion, even if you don't cultivate, no one in the Holy Heaven City will dare to look down on you, so you don't have to worry about it." ”

Ling Xuan knew that Ling Wu's words were comforting him, but he didn't like them.

In the dead of night, the chill hits.

The chill Ling Xuan felt was even worse.

Ling Xuan was silent, his face was calm, but his palms were clenched into fists, and his eyes were staring straight at the spiritual position, the spiritual position of his mother's concubine.

At this time, Ling Xuan secretly made a determination in his heart: I want to practice, I want to become stronger.

Ling Xuan turned around, looked at Ling Wu and said, "Father, I want to enter the Changqi Academy. ”

Ling Xuan's tone was firm, at this moment, it seemed that no one could change his decision.

"Nope"

Ling Xuan's blood was extinguished by Ling Wu's bucket of cold water. Ling Wu's answer was very decisive and resolute, he didn't ask the reason, and naturally he didn't need the reason. For any reason, he will only have one answer, and that is, no.

If you don't, you don't agree.

Regarding Ling Wu's objection, Ling Xuan did not immediately refute, but remained silent. Ling Xuan was silent for a while, and then said, "Father, I have succeeded in opening the pulse. ”

Did the pulse succeed?

Yes, the opening pulse was successful. This is a declarative sentence, a reminder to Ling Wu.

But hearing this, Ling Wu had no smile on his face calmly.

Ling Xuan thought that Ling Wu didn't agree because he hadn't opened his pulse, but the facts in front of him proved that Ling Xuan was wrong.

"Nope"

Ling Wu's voice sounded again in the ancestral hall, and the words "no" were repeated again, and Ling Wu's tone was very light and understated.

"No" is not an answer, but an order.

It's simple, no, no, no.

Why?

At this time, what Ling Xuan wanted to ask most in his heart was why, but Ling Xuan didn't ask, but said: "If you stay in the bird's nest, you will only be a young eagle for the rest of your life, and you will never be able to fly to the blue sky, Father, do you want me to live under the wings of yours, or Xuanwangfu, for the rest of your life?"

"It's impossible, and I can't do it, I want to do something on my own, to achieve something, so I must enter Changqi Academy. ”

Ling Xuan emphasized his thoughts again.

Ling Wu didn't speak, he took a few steps out, looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, and was silent.

The bright moon was so dazzling in the night sky, and the light sprinkled it sprinkled brightened the night, but it also exuded a chill.

The moon hung high in the night sky, and people had to look up at it, but it was lonely.

Ling Xuan looked at Ling Wu quietly, he didn't speak, he was waiting for Ling Wu's answer.

"Xuan'er, do you know why Father and I don't let you cultivate? Because the water in the Holy Heaven City today is so deep that it can drown a person. ”

"My father's statement that the Holy Heavenly City is about to change the sky, now I can probably understand, but it is precisely because of this that I can't hide, I must have the courage to face it. ”

Ling Wu turned to look at Ling Xuan, who looked at him with four eyes.

Ling Wu thought for a while and said, "Xuan'er, Father can agree to let you enter the Changqi Academy, but you can't be the third prince of the Xuanwang Mansion, you must hide your identity. ”

Hearing this, Ling Xuan felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and it was only joy, he didn't ask why. Whether he knew these or not didn't matter to Ling Xuan, over the years, Ling Xuan had looked down on many things, and he didn't care about the identity of the third son of Xuanwangfu.

If it's gone, it's gone.

The important thing is to be able to enter Changqi Academy.

"Thank you, Father," Ling Xuan thanked him.

Fortunately, Yu Shangguan Wan'er didn't say her real name during the day, and now it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone. In this way, in the future, he will enter Changqi Academy as Lin Xuan.

Thinking of this, the corners of Ling Xuan's mouth rose slightly.

Ling Wu patted Ling Xuan with a smile, and without saying anything more, he turned around and left.

Subsequently, Ling Xuan also left the ancestral hall.

......

At night, insects in the corner of the wall chirp, and fireflies can sometimes be seen flying in the night sky.

The night is covered with a silver glow, with a deep beauty.
