"Lord Marquis's apprentice? ha. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Those people are probably brothers on night duty, this will be a little bright, all of them were a little hazki, sleepy, after hearing the words of the man in black at this moment, they all laughed, one of them said: "Friend, there is no such joking as you, it's just that, there was still some sleepiness, now Lao Tzu is in good spirits, for the sake of you to give our brother a refreshment, I won't embarrass you, this marquis's mansion, not everyone can break in, leave quickly, don't embarrass yourself." ”
The man in black frowned slightly, when was he in the imperial capital, and even in a certain circle of the entire Blue Moon Empire, he enjoyed a prestigious reputation, and when was he so despised. The two eagle-like eyes shot out two cold rays of light. Immediately, as if thinking of something, the light retracted and said sincerely: "Zai Xia is indeed the apprentice of the young master, if you don't believe it, go in and tell me, why make fun of Zai Xia here? Everyone is a man, if it is not the truth, why should I consider myself a young junior and take the initiative to come to the door to get ridicule...... Is there a problem in the head?"
The night owl's eyes just burst into that ray of light, which was keenly captured by these soldiers of the lightning corps on duty at night, these soldiers can be on duty in the Marquis's Mansion, and their strength is naturally not weak, although they have not reached the cultivation of the demon swordsman, but they all have the strength of the mad swordsman!
can feel a powerful momentum from the body of this black-clothed man, although it flashed, but at the same time there was a thought in his heart: this person does not look like the kind of guy with a problem with his head, although compared with the young master, it is heaven and earth, but this strength is not weak, maybe, it is really like he said, anyway, the young master rarely loses his temper, go in and say goodbye.
So, one of the soldiers of the lightning regiment looked at the night owl and said, "Then please wait here for a while, and go down to tell the young master." He turned and walked away.
After Ling Xiao got the confession, he was stunned for a moment, I don't know when he had an apprentice, Ye Zi, who had woken up from his meditation, frowned slightly, blinked his smart eyes and said, "Ling Xiao...... Didn't you, when you went to the Butamian steppe, subdue a third-order demon swordsman?
Ling Xiao said suddenly: "Oh, that's right, there is such a thing, but after entering Cameron Town, he disappeared by himself, and at that time I thought, probably, that he felt that a young man like me had lost face, and he was afraid of being ridiculed, so he left by himself." Could it be that he is here?"
Ye Zi smiled: "Isn't it, just go out and see." ”
With that, the two followed the soldiers of the Lightning Legion to the door of the Marquis's Palace.
Ling Xiao recognized at a glance that the tall man with a big hat on his head was the night owl he hadn't seen for a long time.
The night owl also saw Ling Xiao at this time, and Mu Ran's face finally showed a little excited, and he bowed respectfully and said, "Master, the apprentice has given you a salute." ”
Ling Xiao's body flashed to the side and said, "Night Stalker, there was actually no contract between me and you at the beginning, you disappeared in Cameron Town for no reason, and I only left on your own, but now why did you suddenly appear? As soon as this master said it, it should be taken as a joke, I am still young and have no interest in accepting apprentices." ”
The soldiers of the surrounding lightning corps, seeing that the man in black did know the young master at this time, they dispersed, and Ye Zi didn't want to disturb Ling Xiao, so he dodged and left.
Seeing that there was no one around, the night owl showed a wry smile on his face: "I know what I did, and I made you dissatisfied, but the night owl ...... There is really a last resort, alas, since the night owl is back in front of you, all the truth is said to be listened to with you. ”
Ling Xiao waved his hand lightly and said, "Forget it, I'm not interested in hearing your secrets, and I don't have much interest in you as a person, so you better leave." ”
The night owl's smile froze on his face, his expression was very embarrassed, he couldn't imagine that his pretending to be mysterious had caused Ling Xiao's disgust, and he wanted to soften, but the pride of being a strong man made him not know how to open his mouth, but when he thought of the feeling that he was so frightened by Ling Xiao's sword intent full of destructive power that he couldn't even hold the sword in his hand, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, his dignity was too insignificant in front of this person.
Sighing slightly, the night owl knew that he was not qualified to speak in front of this young man, let alone be invited in, he said, "Young Master Ling, the night owl...... At the beginning, I really wanted to follow the young master and comprehend the essence of the sword with the young master. It's just that...... After the night owl arrived in Cameron Town, he was immediately notified by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and ordered the night owl to go and kill the deputy commander of Cameron Town who participated in the rebellion......"
"Oh, hehe, His Royal Highness the Prince's hand is very long. With a hint of ridicule on his face, Ling Xiao said indifferently: "Is that it, the prince has lost power, and you think of me again?"
"No, absolutely not!" Night Owl looked embarrassed, unexpectedly, after not seeing him for a year, Ling Xiao's words became so sharp, making people even feel a little embarrassed.
"The orc clan in Cameron Town is actually His Royal Highness the Prince's people, and it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who killed them because he was afraid that the news would leak out. The night owl sighed softly, and since he had decided to say it, he would simply say it all.
"Since that incident, I have been arranged by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to work in a big family through relationships, and later I knew that that family was actually a hidden family! I didn't expect that there would be a hidden family in the territory of our Blue Moon Empire. There was a slight tremor in the night owl's voice: "Until then, I realized how shallow my previous knowledge was, and the funny thing is that I thought that my strength was very strong, even in the Blue Moon Empire, I could be ranked first, compared with those children of hidden families, my strength is not enough for a finger of others!"
Ling Xiao smiled and said, "You came mysteriously early in the morning to tell me this? Then I'm sorry, I'm really not interested in what you say." As he spoke, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Young Master Ling, I promise, what I say next, you must be interested!"
Seeing the impatient look on Ling Xiao's face, the night owl quickly stopped his nonsense, originally thinking that he would win some of Ling Xiao's favor through these and add some success rate to the next thing. But I didn't expect that this Ling Xiao has now become too difficult to speak!
"Well, you say, night owl, for the sake of having known each other once, I advise you, what is there to say. Ling Xiao sighed lightly, and then looked at the night owl indifferently. If a year ago, Ling Xiao probably needed a person with good strength like the night owl to follow him, then now, the strength of the night owl has completely lost his status by Ling Xiao's side.
In fact, strength is not so important in Ling Xiao's heart, otherwise, Li Fo, the deputy city lord of Penzes City, could not have any strength at all, and he also entered Ling Xiao's eyes.
What every superior needs is not necessarily the extraordinary ability of his subordinates, but their loyalty!
This is something that you can't find in a person like a night owl.
"The hidden families of the entire Eastern Continent will hold a grand family trade fair with the coral islands of the East China Sea in half a month, this trading conference, almost all the hidden families and sects of the Eastern Continent will participate, and at the conference, there will be all kinds of treasures, which can be called a grand event of the hidden family sect!
After all, anyone who knows some of Ling Xiao's current situation knows that Ling Xiao is currently being watched by all the hidden family sects, and a pair of greedy eyes are staring at him, if they are really seized by those hidden family sects with ulterior motives, I believe that Ling Xiao will definitely be forced to hand over the secrets in their hands.
Therefore, at this moment, this request made by the night stalker is really a bit ...... I don't know how to count.
However, this proposal of the night owl deeply attracted Ling Xiao, to be honest, Ling Xiao was very interested in the exchange event of this hidden family!
However, Ling Xiao still looked at the night stalker's flickering eyes and said, "Night stalker, you didn't come to me just to tell me the news, tell me, what benefits do you want from me for the forces you represent?"
"Hehe, he is worthy of being the most outstanding young nobleman in the history of the Blue Moon Empire, Young Master Ling is really smart. The night owl patted Ling Xiao on the back, and then said: "The meaning of our family is to protect the safety of Young Master Ling at the exchange meeting, and then, if you refine any elixir, you must give priority to selling it to our family, it's as simple as that." If Young Master Ling agrees, then the night owl will immediately tell the family some information, and at the same time, he will also give Young Master Ling a waist card of the family's guest elder, and when the time comes, Young Master Ling only needs to follow our family to enter the exchange event......"
Ling Xiao waved his hand, stopped the night owl's next words, and chuckled, "You can go back." ”
"You...... How would you refuse? My family is a family with the strength of the Sword Emperor! Young Master Ling, you can look down on my night owl, but you ...... You can't be ignorant!"
The night owl was in a hurry, and said without hesitation, and then looked at Ling Xiao a little nervously, I heard that Ling Xiao's strength had improved by leaps and bounds as early as this year, a year ago the night owl was not Ling Xiao's opponent, and a year later, the night owl did not have the courage to consider whether he could block Ling Xiao's sword.
Ling Xiao smiled slightly, snorted lightly, raised his two sword eyebrows, looked at the night owl with a mocking expression and said, "Go around and around, the feeling is to be a lobbyist, it's a pity...... You know too little about me, so, you go. ”
