Chapter Thirty-Eight: The White Old Land Entrusted

Yuyan may not have noticed her abnormality, but the old and refined Bai Lao was aware of it in his heart when he knew that Yuyan suddenly moved into the Eastern Emperor Academy. Now seeing Yuyan's eyes looking at Ling Ao, and this burst of red and even redder expressions, he can roughly guess Yuyan's thoughts, after all, he has been with her for so long, he can still feel this situation. However, Bai Lao was not ready to oppose this time, in his eyes, Ling Ao was already excellent in any aspect beyond his understanding, but he was wary of the gap between the two, including age, strength and power. Thinking of this, Bai Lao silently decided to talk to Ling Ao.

Because the duel will start early tomorrow morning, everyone will go to rest early. In the original world, Ling Ao, who was a night owl, was naturally used to not being able to sleep, staring at the blue moon in the sky in the courtyard in a daze.

"Ling Xiaoyou is so elegant and admiring the moon, why don't you have a drink with me, an old man?" Seeing Ling Ao alone in the courtyard, Bai Lao sat next to Ling Ao with a wine jug.

"Bai Lao has been working so hard these days, why haven't you rested?" Ling Ao didn't expect Bai Lao to suddenly find himself to drink, and it seemed like he had something to say.

"I'm old, I can't sleep so much, and when I die, I naturally have a lot of time to sleep, haha. Speaking of this, Bai Lao poured himself and Ling Ao a glass of wine, and drank it all without waiting for Ling Ao to say anything.

However, Ling Ao saw a little helplessness and unwillingness in Bai Lao's unconscious expression, so Ling Ao, who was puzzled, also lifted the wine glass and drank it all:

"Bai Lao, do you have something to say to me?"

"Haha, Xiaoyou is really smart, I can't hide it......"

Ling Ao didn't expect that the news he heard from Bai Lao would be so shocking. It turned out that when he helped Yuyan seize control of the business alliance before, Bai Lao was plotted and poisoned, this poison does not require human life, but it will dissipate the strength of the poisoner little by little. For so many years, Bai Lao had relied on the genius earth treasure that Yuyan had secretly found everywhere to suppress the toxicity, but he could no longer use the strength above Xingyao. Therefore, in addition to the momentum of the sky, today's Bai Lao may basically not be as good as a star-level person. And now, Bai Lao's suppression of toxicity is getting worse and worse, and I am afraid that he will no longer be able to suppress toxicity in less than half a year, and then Bai Lao's power will be exhausted, and Bai Lao's life will also come to an end.

Hearing this, Ling Ao finally understood why when Yuyan found her cooperation, she would add such a condition to protect her thoroughly. It seems that Bai Lao's situation may really not be optimistic. Yu Yan is now staying in this eight-way alliance where the mountains and rains are about to come, and he is also deeply involved in the struggle within the business alliance, if one day Bai Lao, who is the terminal deterrent force, suddenly loses his strength, then Yuyan's situation is really worrying. In this world of deceit and strength, no one will show mercy to your subordinates for the sake of power.

However, Ling Ao was very puzzled by how Bai Lao could suddenly tell himself about such a serious matter, so he asked:

"Bai Lao, why did you tell me this suddenly?"

"Ling Xiaoyou, to tell you the truth, I'm for Yuyan," Speaking of this, Bai Lao paused, picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank it all, and then said, "Cough, Yuyan, this kid, it's pitiful to say." When he was young and in the mood for love, he came to this smoky royal capital as a victim. As a result, step by step, she had to bear pressure that should not be her in order to survive. Over the years, I have been by her side, and many times I have seen it distressed, if it weren't for the fact that there was nowhere to go, I even thought about taking her out of this royal capital and letting her live an ordinary life. Now, I'm a rotten wood about to wither, I really can't take care of her anymore, once that day comes, I hope Xiaoyou can take good care of Yuyan for me, she has no relatives in this world now, old, please. ”

I saw that after Bai Lao finished speaking, if it weren't for Ling Ao's quick hand to support Bai Lao, Bai Lao would have already knelt down. Ling Ao hurriedly helped Bai Lao up, looking at Bai Lao's expression, he could clearly feel Bai Lao's love and helplessness for Yuyan. Even Ling Ao could see that Bai Lao even had a little tearful eyes. Ling Ao didn't expect that for the sake of Yuyan, an old man of Bai Lao's age would have to kneel down for him.

So Ling Ao hurriedly said:

"Bai Lao, this can torment me. Bai Lao, you also know that at present, my own troubles have not been solved, and in addition to this trouble, I actually have a lot of troubles, so Yuyan may not be really safe in me. "Ling Ao's words are not to shirk, in addition to the matter of the Eastern Emperor Academy, the matter of Avril Lavigne, the princess of the elf clan, will definitely have a follow-up, as well as the two abyss clans of the black robe and Liruo, the matter is definitely not as simple as the black robe said, so to speak, the matter of the Eastern Emperor Academy seems to be the simplest.

"Ling Xiaoyou, you are too humble. The affairs of the Eastern Emperor Academy are currently in your place, and I don't think it's a problem at all. I want to say that I have fought countless battles in my life, and I have accompanied Yuyan to deceive me in this center of power, for so many years, I can be regarded as reading countless people, Ling Xiaoyou, you are the first person to give me an unfathomable feeling, so as for the trouble you said, I think you will definitely be able to solve it, to survive in this world, sometimes in addition to your own powerful accidents, you still need a lot of friends. It can be seen that Xiaoyou, you have not entered the world deeply, and with the existence of you and your side, sooner or later you will be surrounded by forces that you may not even be able to imagine. Although I don't know what kind of family or force can cultivate people like you, if you are not safe around you, then there is no safe place in this world. ”

Bai Lao's evaluation of Ling Ao was so high, maybe even Ling Ao himself didn't expect it, although he was still misunderstood that he had some powerful and mysterious force behind him, but the affirmation of Ling Ao himself made Ling Ao's heart, which had always been not very confident, get a little joy. Since Bai Lao's words have already been said like this, Ling Ao is really not good at shirking anything, anyway, he will be numb if he has more trouble, so Ling Ao said:

"Elder Bai, don't worry, although I can't guarantee that I can solve the matter of your business alliance, I will definitely not let Sister Yuyan have an accident. ”

"With such a sentence from Xiaoyou, the old man has also made a wish. I felt that Bai Lao, who had solved a big stone in his heart at once, was in a good mood for a while, and pulled Ling Ao is drink cup after cup. It's just that what the two of them may not have noticed is that not far behind them, a beautiful face and a pair of bright eyes have long been crying. This figure was Yu Yan, who originally wanted to come to find Ling Ao, but accidentally saw and heard Bai Lao's entrustment to Ling Ao, and he really couldn't hold back.

Thinking of the fact that only Bai Lao has supported and accompanied him all the way for so many years, how many times he has wandered on the edge of life and death, how many thrilling struggles, if there was no Bai Lao, he might have died a long time ago. Now Bai Lao's situation is naturally clear to her, in addition to touching Bai Lao is still looking for a way out for herself, she also resents that she really has no way to solve Bai Lao's poison, and Bai Lao is still plotted because of herself. Thinking of this, Yuyan was even more heartbroken. For so many years, Bai Lao has long been the closest relative in Yuyan's heart. Now he can only watch his relatives gradually leave in front of him, but he has no choice, that kind of helplessness, that kind of sadness really makes Yuyan a little collapsed for a while.

The moon is still blue, the night is still quiet, and there are really three people in the small courtyard now. Yu Yan was afraid that her unbearable movement would disturb Ling Ao and Bai Lao, so she hurried back to her room. And Bai Lao and Ling Ao in the courtyard didn't know how to drop, it seemed that the more energetic the conversation, the more they drank, the more energetic they became, until the sky was bright.

"Ling Xiaoyou, it's dawn. Bai Lao looked at the white belly of the fish in the distance and put down the wine glass.

"Yes, yes. Ahem, I didn't expect that I had always been most afraid of trouble, but trouble has been coming to the door, since this is the case, then from today, starting from the Eastern Emperor Academy, I want me to avoid trouble wherever Ling Ao has passed!"

All along, because he always felt that he was an outsider, Ling Ao never really integrated into this world, so he always abided by some rules of this world, or he was always reluctant to expose himself in front of too many people, because he was afraid of being ostracized. But Bai Lao's words deeply touched Ling Ao. Because Bai Lao told Ling Ao that in this world, no one cares where you come from and where you are going, as long as you have the strength and ability, everyone will only flock to you, not reject you. And if you're at the top of your power, then you should make the rules instead of following them, and you're so qualified to make the rules.

Seeing the sharpness and sharpness in Ling Ao's eyes and tone, Bai Lao smiled with satisfaction, and couldn't help but nod his head while filling himself with another glass. He could see that today's Ling Ao might really have begun to transform. Although Ling Ao has always given him a mysterious and powerful feeling, he always feels that there are shortcomings, and now he also knows that what he lacks is the sharpness and passion of young people. It used to feel that everything was indifferent to Ling Ao, but now Ling Ao is different.

After a while, everyone in the Eastern Emperor Academy woke up one after another, and today was the first time in three years that the Eastern Emperor Academy took the initiative to stand in front of all the forces in the royal capital, Lan Xi and Fu Bo were naturally excited, because they knew very well that with the arrogant Eastern Emperor Academy, it was likely to return to its former glory, and today might be the beginning.

As for the black robe and the old man Bing, the two of them had already been given a death order by Ling Ao, and the scene today would definitely not be so simple, so no one from the Eastern Emperor Academy would be allowed to have any accidents. As for Garuru, today, it may be him who will change the fate of his life and his sister, if it weren't for the best condition, maybe he wouldn't have been able to sleep at all last night.

The most leisurely in the entire Donghuang Academy may only be the two little girls, Liruo and Garfield, after all, they don't know what is going on. As for Avril, although she is not worried about today's events, because in her opinion, there is nothing impossible with Ling Ao. But the affairs of the elves have always been like a boulder in his heart. And Yuyan, who had cried all night, was afraid that setting off with the Donghuang people would cause unnecessary trouble, so he left with Bai Lao in advance, in fact, he was afraid that Ling Ao would see his abnormality. It's just that when he was leaving, he still didn't forget to look at Ling Ao twice, and he always felt thoughtful.

In the end, although everyone had their own thoughts, after some repairs, everyone walked towards the arena full of fighting spirit.
