Chapter 58: A Father's Love Is Like a Mountain
So he secretly swore in his heart that in the future, he would try to let Ling Shouxin worry about him as little as possible. ()
Ling Xiao really didn't know how to tell his father Ling Shouxin that he was going to leave the Ling family for a few months, and with his understanding of his father, it was estimated that the possibility of his father agreeing to him leaving the Ling family was very small, which gave him a headache.
The whole afternoon passed quietly in the question of how to tell Ling Shouxin that he left the Ling family, the sun was setting, night was falling, after Ling Xiao had eaten dinner, he did not cultivate, but sat in the courtyard and waited for his father.
Ling Shouxin basically got up early and returned late every day, as the only son of the patriarch Ling Potian, during the period of Ling Potian's retreat and cultivation, he temporarily acted as the head of the Ling family and dealt with the big and small affairs of the Ling family.
Ling Xiao was not in a hurry, and waited patiently for Ling Shouxin.
Until late at night, Ling Shouxin dragged his tired body back to the courtyard in a hurry, and found Ling Xiao sitting on a stone bench in a daze, so he immediately walked over and said distressedly: "Xiao'er, why don't you sleep so late?" You are still young now, it is the time to grow your body, you need to rest more." ”
"Dad, Xiao'er knows. Ling Xiao stood up, grinned and said, "Dad, I didn't see you coming back so late, I was very worried, so I sat here and waited for you." ”
When Ling Shouxin heard Ling Xiao's words, his heart was suddenly moved, tears appeared in the tiger's eyes, and he stroked Ling Xiao's head with his broad palm, and said with relief: "Xiao'er has grown up, and I know that I feel sorry for my father." ()”
Ling Xiao showed an expression of enjoyment and felt a strong father's love.
Only when you lose it can you know how to cherish it.
Ling Xiao understands the value of family affection better than everyone else, so he cherishes his relationship with Ling Shouxin after being reborn.
It's not that Ling Shuoxiao is hypocritical, but Ling Shouxin's love is unreserved, great and selfless.
He clearly remembered that when his family was destroyed, Ling Shouxin roared at the powerful enemy, delaying time for him to escape.
"It's cold outside, let's go into the house first. Ling Shouxin withdrew the big hand placed on Ling Xiao's head and pulled him towards the house.
After entering the house, Ling Xiao obediently made a cup of tea for Ling Shouxin, and then stood next to him without saying a word.
Ling Shouxin naturally noticed this, and said suspiciously: "Xiao'er, you usually like to talk, why don't you say a word now?"
Ling Xiao was now hesitating how to tell Ling Shouxin about his departure from the Ling family, when he heard Ling Shouxin's question, he decided to confess to Ling Shouxin, and he said, "Dad, I plan to leave the Ling family for a while. ()”
"Impossible" As soon as Ling Shouxin heard this, he put the teacup in his hand heavily on the table, and immediately shook his head and said: "The outside world is too dangerous, what is going to happen to you, what should you do with your father and your grandfather?
"Dad, I know that the outside world is dangerous, but Xiao'er has grown up now, and she is not a child anymore, so she should go out and break through. Ling Xiao showed a determined look, but he didn't want to make Ling Shouxin angry, and said pleadingly: "Xiao'er knows that my father is afraid that I will encounter danger outside, and it is impossible for a young eagle to soar into the sky under the wings of an eagle, I want to go out for a walk and see the wonderful world outside." ”
He definitely wouldn't tell Ling Shouxin that he was going to the primordial mountain range to look for an adventure, after all, an adventure was accompanied by danger, and he could die at any time, if Ling Shouxin knew, he would definitely strongly oppose it, and maybe he would send someone to watch him, and it would be troublesome if he wanted to leave at that time.
Ling Shouxin fell silent, looking at Ling Xiao in front of him who was about the same height as him, only to know that Ling Xiao had grown up, he sighed lightly and said: "Xiao'er, if you want to go out, your father won't stop you, but you must promise your father that you must put your own safety first at all times, otherwise your father will not let you leave." ”
Ling Xiao didn't expect Ling Shouxin to agree so easily, and happily responded: "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely do what you say." ()”
"That's good. Ling Shouxin nodded and continued: "It seems that you have been planning to leave the Ling family for a long time, when will you leave this time?"
Ling Xiao smiled wryly and said, "I plan to leave the day after tomorrow and come back within half a year at most." ”
"Leaving in such a hurry?" Ling Shouxin said in surprise, he thought that Ling Xiao would have to stay at home for a few days before leaving, and he was planning to accompany Ling Xiao in the next few days.
"Yes, as long as my strength breaks through, I will rush back. Ling Xiao said, the Zhang family will make a move on the Ling family within a year, where does he have so much time to waste.
"It's okay, go early and come back early. Ling Shouxin didn't express any opinions, and advised: "Go and talk to your grandfather tomorrow and say goodbye to him, you are his only grandson, if he goes out and finds that you are not in the Ling family, but went out to practice, he will definitely be furious." ”
"I see, Dad. Ling Xiao responded obediently, Ling Potian already loved him very much, especially after he won the first place in the family's ****, Ling Potian took care of him meticulously, even if he practiced in retreat, he would arrange the best resources for him to cultivate.
"Okay, you go to rest early, I'm tired, and I'm going to rest. Ling Shouxin stood up from his chair and waved his hand.
"Dad, you should rest early, Xiao'er will retire first. Ling Xiao said a word, and walked towards the door, when he reached the door, he turned his head and glanced at Ling Shouxin, at this moment, he felt that Ling Shouxin's back seemed to be slightly rickety, so lonely and lonely.
Ling Xiao's nose was sour, his heart was not a taste, he clenched his fists and said guiltily in his heart: "Dad, our Ling family will face the crisis of extinction within a year, I now have to look for opportunities to improve my strength, only by defeating the enemy, can I keep the Ling family, and I will definitely be filial to you when the time comes." ”
Then he returned to the room, although he was going to leave the Ling family the day after tomorrow, but the cultivation was never slack, he sat cross-legged on the bed to absorb the vitality in the room, integrated into the sea of qi, and warmed and refined the six meridians.
Early the next morning, Ling Xiao woke up from his cultivation, he had not slept all night but did not feel any fatigue, his eyes were shining, and his whole person was full of energy and vitality.
Because he was going to leave for the Primeval Mountains the day after tomorrow, in addition to saying hello to his grandfather Ling Potian today, he also had to buy some necessary herbs in case of unpreparedness.
Ling Xiao washed up briefly, had breakfast, and punched the broken jade fist, only then did the sun slowly rise from the east, and then he left the courtyard and walked towards the courtyard where Ling Potian was retreating.
Since Ling Potian was in retreat, there were elite guards of the Ling family guarding him near the courtyard, and he was on guard, these people all knew Ling Xiao, and they didn't stop him, let him in, who made him the only grandson of the patriarch.
The furnishings in the house were extremely simple, and when he walked into the house, he saw an old man about sixty years old with white hair, who was this Ling Potian?
Ling Potian raised his head and glanced at Ling Xiao, and said with a smile, "Xiao'er, why did you come here today?"
"Grandpa, I'm going to go out to practice and say hello to you, so that you don't have to worry at that time. Ling Xiao said casually.
"Going out to practice?" Ling Potian showed a look of surprise, seeing that Ling Xiao was very calm, as if he didn't take the experience seriously at all, he couldn't help but muttered in his heart: "My grandson's talent is really amazing, he can break through the fifth layer of the condensation period at the age of fifteen, all kinds of hole cards emerge in endlessly, even if it is the sixth layer of the condensation period, he has the power to fight, the word "genius" is well deserved, but is it too proud and complacent to go out to experience it in less than a month?"
He observed Ling Xiao carefully, and then his old eyes burst into essence, and said happily: "Good boy, I didn't expect that in less than a month, you broke through again, it seems that I have a successor to Ling Potian." ”
The more Ling Potian looked at Ling Xiao, the more satisfied he felt in his heart, and at the same time sighed in his heart: "How long has it been, this stinky boy has broken through to the sixth layer of the condensation stage, and the speed is too fast, I was only at the fourth layer of the condensation stage at his age, isn't it that I am old?"
Ling Potian didn't know that the reason why Ling Xiao's strength was able to break through so quickly was because he had experienced several life and death dangers in those half months, and had obtained some adventures to have such strength, if he broke through to the sixth layer of the Condensation Stage according to normal cultivation, it would take him at least more than a year.
"It's just a fluke, it's just a fluke. Ling Xiao scratched his head and said with a smile.
Although he was an old monster who had lived for more than three hundred years, that was in the past, and now he was in his teenage years, only fifteen or sixteen years old, if he showed his old-fashioned side in front of Ling Potian, it was obviously not suitable.
Besides, young people should have the vigor of young people, and now that he is living again, he doesn't want to behave like an old man in his seventies and eighties everywhere.
His personality was originally more lively and cheerful, before the Ling family was exterminated, as the grandson of the patriarch, he lived a life of "clothes to reach out and food to open his mouth", most of the contacts were some people with masks and hypocrisy, and he was surrounded by people all day long.
It was only after the destruction of his family that he recognized his own situation, and his heart began to slowly change and gradually became mature, but his lively and cheerful personality did not change.
Otherwise, for the more than 300 years, he spent two-thirds of his time in retreat and cultivation, and if it weren't for his personality, he would have been driven crazy by being able to entertain himself when he was tired from cultivation.
When Ling Potian heard Ling Xiao's words, he scolded with a smile: "You stinky boy, you first broke through to the fifth layer of the condensation stage in the clan competition, and now you have broken through to the sixth layer of the condensation stage, there is less than a month between it, you are so easy to fool as a grandfather." ”
"Hehe, grandpa, how dare my grandson fool you, your grandson and I are amazingly talented, and it is natural that my cultivation speed is fast. Ling Xiao said very angrily. (Chivalry Chinese Network)
