Chapter 8: The Robbery
Chilled small building.
It had been two hours since he came back from the city lord's mansion clan meeting, and during this time, neither mother nor son had said a word.
Ye Qingying was just silently busy in the room, while Ling Zhi was completely like a nobody, sitting on the side and leisurely playing with a small blue token in his hand.
This token was handed over to him by his cheap son Ling Taichong at the clan meeting, and taking this token means that Ling Zhi agreed to Ling Taichong's conditions.
There was no reason why he didn't agree, no matter what conspiracy there was, just because the other party proposed that his mother could enjoy the normal status of the City Lord's Mansion, Ling Zhi had no reason to refuse.
But now it seems that his choice was not wrong. Not long ago, he had learned from his mother that it turned out that Ling Muchen, the son of the second lady Hongling, was also practicing in the Luoxia Sect.
And Ling Muchen's cultivation is said to have reached the initial level of the Xuanwu Realm as early as two years ago, and he is the second person in the entire Ling Mansion and Ling Zhi's generation, second only to the daughter of the eldest lady and Ling Ruoxin.
Needless to say, the so-called conspiracy was nothing more than relying on Ling Muchen to prevent him from entering the Luoxia Sect.
But, is it possible?
As soon as he thought of this, Ling Zhi couldn't help but want to laugh. It is conceivable that one day, when Ling Taichong and his two aunts knew that their plan to get rid of Ling Zhi had become a stepping stone for him to step into the Luoxia Sect, the expression on his face would definitely be very exciting, right?
"Xiaozhi, do you really have to go? If you are worried that your mother is not doing well, you don't need to do this at all, your mother has been used to the quiet here for more than ten years, and if I suddenly move outside, my mother will not be used to it. ”
Ye Qingying sorted out a burden and looked at Ling Zhi with a reluctant face.
Ling Zhi shook his head, suddenly looked at Ye Qingying and said seriously: "Mother, don't you believe me?" "I ......"
"Martial arts, it's never been a flat river, if you want to go further, how can you blindly hide at home? Bianliang City is too small, since you have the opportunity to go to the outside world to see, mother, why should I refuse?"
There was a sharp look in Ling Zhi's eyes, in fact, there was something he didn't tell Ye Qingying. This trip to Luoxia Sect, in addition to the gamble with Ling Taichong, the most real reason is that he also wants to see if the Luoxia Sect, which is known as one of the four major sects of the Great Xia Dynasty, can help him go further on the road of cultivation.
Xiuzhen entered the foundation building period, and with the various means of the previous life, with his current age, among his peers, he has rarely met opponents. But since he didn't encounter a thunderstorm when he advanced to the foundation building period, there has always been a hurdle in his heart.
Is it just that there is no thunderstorm in the foundation building period, or is there no thunderstorm in this world?
If the former is enough, in case it is the latter, then his wish to make up for the lack of martial arts with his cultivation is just a dream bubble. Because without the baptism of thunder, he would never have been able to attain the golden pill. And if you only linger in the foundation building period forever, even if you cultivate to the peak of the foundation building period, at most it is only equivalent to the martial arts realm of this world.
Seeing the sharpness in Ling Zhi's eyes, Ye Qingying also sighed. She didn't know that what her son said was right? If she wanted to go further in martial arts, it was indeed not a wise move to blindly hide under her wing. But knowing that as a mother, and knowing that the future is so dangerous, how can she be willing to let her son take risks?
"Xiaozhi, you have such ambitions, and my mother is happy for you, but my mother also hopes that you will understand one thing, in this world, there is not only martial arts practice, if you can't do anything, your mother hopes that you should let go and let go, mother, only you are a son......"
"Don't worry, mother, it's just a Luoxia Sect, the son is not in his eyes, even if it is the Great Xia Dynasty, it will not be the final return of the son, the son's goal is this world, it is the entire vast Kyushu Continent!"
Ling Zhi walked to the window and looked at the blue sky outside the window, his eyes flashed with essence, revealing a strong sense of confidence and ambition.
Is the Kyushu Continent vast? Is the path of martial arts very difficult?
Since in the previous life, in such a cruel environment as the cultivation realm, he was able to use his mortal body to almost cultivate three heavenly tribulations, the great cultivator of the Yuan Infant Stage, and in this life, he has the memory of two lifetimes, and now he is already a cultivation in the foundation building period, and the starting point will only be higher, what is he afraid of?
Outside Bianliang City, on the desolate ancient road, Ling Zhi turned over and stepped onto a night lion horse specially prepared for him by his mother, and waved goodbye to Ye Qingying: "Mother, please go back, three months later will be the Ling family's year-end clan meeting, and I will definitely come back when the time comes, so that my mother can sit in the head of the clan meeting!"
At the end of the year, the clan meeting is not only as simple as the reunion of the Ling family, but also a big competition between peers, as long as he wins the first place in the big competition, he believes that his mother's status will definitely increase greatly, and even surpassing the two aunts Ziluo and Hongling is still unknown.
"Xiaozhi, remember my mother's words, be careful in everything, my mother will wait for you to come back!"
Ye Qingying kept nodding at her son, and in her sight, watching her son's figure turn into a cloud on the horizon, gradually disappearing on the horizon, her cold cheeks couldn't help but shed two lines of motherly tears.
......
At the same time, at a fork in the road dozens of kilometers away from Bianliang City, there were two straight figures like swords.
"Senior brother, I really don't understand, in the place where Bianliang City has a big palm, the city lord Ling Lao'er is just a hillbilly, since you are here, why don't we go into the city?
At this moment, one of the handsome young men with a pale face and a faint languishing brow between his eyebrows suddenly spoke. If Ling Zhi was here at this moment, he would definitely recognize that this person was the disciple of Wuji Sect who was seriously injured in his Huang family and was promised by Huang Qingqing as the best disciple of Wuji Sect in this life, Yi Feng.
The gray-clothed young man, who was also the senior brother Wei Cang invited by Yi Feng's rescue army, after listening to Yi Feng's words, his two thick eyebrows wrinkled imperceptibly, and then he smiled lightly: "Wuji Sect, known as one of the four major sects of the Great Xia Dynasty, it can be said that as long as it is in the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, no one dares not to give face, but this is Bianliang City in the end!"
"What about Bianliang City, could it be that the bullshit city lord of Bianliang City still dares not to give us face from the Wuji Sect?" Yi Feng couldn't help but said hurriedly.
"Bianliang City, it's too far away from Wuji Sect......"
Wei Cang sighed with emotion, and when he looked back and saw that Yi Feng still looked ignorant, he couldn't help but feel a little disdainful in his heart, but thinking of the other party's background in the Wuji Sect, he finally explained: "With the strength of the Wuji Sect, of course Bianliang City doesn't dare not give face, but junior brother, you must know that whether it is you and me, we are just outer disciples of the Wuji Sect."
I heard that Ling Taichong, the city lord of Bianliang City, seems to have reached the cultivation of the Earth Martial Realm, if we force our way into Bianliang City, or the other party will be polite, or even pour tea in person to admit his mistake, but let him hand over his own son, do you think it is possible?"
"Then what should I do? Can't I just let that little bastard go?" Yi Feng was unwilling.
"That's why we have to ambush here, block the road of that little bastard, and then take his head, and then go back to the Ling family in Bianliang City, at that time, even if Ling Taichong hates it in his heart, but his son is dead, with the prestige of our Wuji Sect, he doesn't dare to do anything to us, and you, junior brother, have taken revenge, and the purpose of humiliating the Ling family has also been achieved. ”
"Okay, it's still Senior Brother who is thoughtful, hehe, when the time comes, I will personally carry Ling Zhi's head and ask him to pour me tea and admit my mistake, hahaha......" Yi Feng stroked his palms and laughed, obviously extremely satisfied with Senior Brother's arrangement.
At this time, I heard Wei Cang say again: "However, the only thing I am worried about now is whether that little mongrel will really take this path." ”
"Haha, senior brother, don't worry about this, I have already confirmed to Qingqing repeatedly when I came out, according to the eyeliner they placed in the Ling family, that little bastard has already obtained the family recommendation qualification, as long as he goes to the Luoxia Sect, he will definitely take this path. ”
The corners of Wei Cang's mouth showed a hint of disdain, and he couldn't help but shake his head and said: "It seems that Bianliang City is really just a small place, and there are not many talents, and even such waste as Ling Zhi was sent out to participate in the election...... Huh, here it is!"
In the distance, among the verdant trees, a rider came from the dust, kicking up the dust in the sky, and the speed was extremely fast.
"Senior brother, you will be careful later, although that little bastard's cultivation is nothing, it seems to be a shadow martial spirit, and his speed is also fast, and this is how I fell victim to his way. Seeing Ling Zhi approaching in the distance, Yi Feng subconsciously touched his chest, as if he was still aching faintly, with endless resentment in his eyes.
Ling Zhi jumped immediately, and the divine consciousness of the foundation building period found the two figures blocking the road in front of him, and at first he thought that the eldest lady Ziluo was unwilling to send a killer to rob and kill him halfway.
However, when he saw the familiar Yi Feng among the two figures, he immediately felt relieved, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the speed not only did not decrease, but became more and more raised.
Not long after, with the servants and dust, the night lion and horse had already come to Yi Feng and the two, Ling Zhi grabbed the reins, glanced at the two of them casually, and quickly stopped his gaze on Yi Feng's face and said: "Huh, you are in good health, you kicked me, I didn't expect it to be so soon, why?
"You're looking for death!"
Yi Feng was furious, and flew out with a "bang" of the long sword on his back, "Ling Zhi, don't think that you are invincible in the world if you are a shadow martial artist, my senior brother is here today, you don't want to leave alive." ”
"Senior brother?" Ling Zhi raised the corners of his mouth and said towards Wei Cang: "You are his senior brother?" Yes, he is already a fifth-level cultivator in the Xuanwu Realm, much stronger than this waste. ”
In the face of Ling Zhi's deliberate provocation, Wei Cang's ordinary face did not change, and he said very calmly: "Huang Wujing's fourfold cultivation, but I look down on you, get off the horse by yourself, and abandon your cultivation, I may be able to leave you a whole corpse for your sake." ”
"Get out!" Ling Zhi's smile did not change, but the words he spat out could make people's lungs explode.
"Senior brother!" Yi Feng's face changed, and the killing intent in his eyes was like substance, "Let's go together and kill him!"
"He's mine!" Wei Cang waved his hand at Yi Feng, the corners of his mouth hooked up a cold arc, and at the same time, his body exploded, shocked, and the huge coercion swooped out, and he didn't intend to give Ling Zhi half a chance to speak.
"Ten Peerless Swords!" Wei Cang shouted, the sword behind his back flew out, and at the same moment, the sword qi in the air was soaring, magnificent, and terrifying, as if the air was pierced by his sword qi.
At this time, he saw that Ling Zhi was standing still, and the terrifying sword qi in Wei Cang was about to pierce his eyelids, and the whole person was still sitting on the horse, and there was a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Die!" Wei Cang's eyes were full of murderous intent, and the other party's calm and calm expression was the biggest irony in his eyes, as a prey, he had no prey consciousness, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
But in the next second, his face suddenly changed, his pupils contracted violently, and even his breathing stopped.
But seeing the sword qi in the air, a red blood light suddenly burst out, domineering and wild, arrogant and raging! Sword qi! The terrifying sword qi slashed the sky and the earth, suppressed everything, from nothing to something, from virtual to real!
Boom!
With a knife, the earth regains its clarity.
Quiet!
There was a deathly silence in the space!
Looking at the corpse on the ground blankly, Yi Feng opened his mouth wide, and there was a sense of unreality like a dream. One knife, just one knife, the incomparably powerful senior brother Wei Cang in his eyes was directly killed, and he didn't even have a chance to beg for mercy.
"The knife just now, so fast, so domineering. ”
Gulling swallowed a mouthful of saliva, Yi Feng raised his head with difficulty and slowly looked towards Ling Zhi, but soon, the sluggishness in his eyes was replaced by endless anger.
Looking at Ling Zhi like a dead man, Yi Feng yelled frantically: "You killed him, little bastard, how dare you kill him? Do you know what you did? Die, Ling Zhi, you are dead, no, not only you, including your entire Ling family, all the people related to you, all of them will die!"
After the words fell, Yi Feng quickly took out a jade slip from his arms, tightened his two fingers, and pinched it towards the jade slip.
