Chapter 123: Unexpected
This stone mountain sword test, Ling Xiao was very touched, all along, Ling Xiao's heart is somewhat disdainful of the sword skills of this world, Shushan is a sword into the Taoist sect, in this sword-based secular world, subconsciously in the heart, will be a little despised for the world's sword skills and exercises!
After all, Ling Xiao's own head recorded countless sword skills and exercises, all of which were the essence of the entire Shushan Sword Sect for hundreds of millions of years! Although he is only in the foundation building period now, and because of the quality of this body itself, the strength is not the same as the foundation building period in the previous life, and he can't use many sword skills in his head for the time being, but any one that can be used in this world, not to mention the god-level sword skills, at least the saint-level is no problem!
Seeing his father's earth-shattering sword today, Ling Xiao's heart suddenly became a little more enlightened, in this world, there are no useless sword skills, only useless people!
That's right, good swordsmanship with good exercises can indeed exert exponential power, but if you cultivate ordinary swordsmanship to the top, then ...... It will also burst out with amazing power!
Just like Ling Tianxiao's sword, ten Ling Xiao were also killed in seconds, what can you do if you have divine sword skills?
was deeply touched, and there was also Ling Yun'er, after seeing the huge power of the family's legendary heaven-level mid-level sword technique "Hurricane Break", her whole heart was shocked, and the ghost made her dare to tell her father that she didn't like this set of sword skills, and then used the jade girl swordsmanship to draw more than 20 traces of different shades on the boulder that was missing. Although it couldn't be compared to the depth of the previous use of the Hurricane Break, Ling Tianxiao was not an uninformed mediocre person, and he immediately saw that the level of his daughter's use of this set of sword skills was no worse than his own family heirloom sword skills, and even ...... It's still a lot stronger!Although I don't want to admit it in my heart, this is indeed a fact, Ling Yun'er's strength is still shallow now, and when she opens up all the meridians of her body and enters the first order of the Demon Swordsman, she will use this set of sword skills again, and that strength will probably not be worse than when she was in the third order!
Ling Tianxiao was taken aback by his own guess, and at the same time, he also found that this set of sword skills was more suitable for his daughter! He was a martial artist, not a dead dogma, and if he had good sword skills, he didn't let his children practice, so wasn't there something wrong with his head?
It's just that Ling Tianxiao only had one concern, and asked Ling Xiaodao: "Xiao'er, this set of sword skills... Did you pass it on to Yun'er?"
Ling Xiao didn't deny it, nodded with a light smile and said: "I think for the little sister, this set of sword skills is more suitable for her than Hurricane Break! Unlike the eldest brother and the second sister, who have been cultivating for many years and have formed habits, the little sister's current thoughts have not been imprisoned in a set of sword skills, so I will be bold and pass on this set of sword skills to her, and I hope that my father will not be surprised!"
Ling Tianxiao laughed and said, "Confused! What do I think I'm weird?
Ling Yun'er muttered in her heart: Aren't you old-fashioned? Since I was a child, you have forced me to cultivate Hurricane Break, and you have already said that you don't like it......
Ling Tianxiao laughed, and then sighed softly: "Xiao'er, you must also have your own difficulties, many things are inconvenient to say, but you are like this...... Wouldn't it be possible to pass on the sword skills to your sister like this?"
Ling Xiao shook his head with a strange smile on his face: "They ...... They don't care about me. ”
Not to mention that these are already two worlds, even if the powerful people in Shushan can travel through time and space to come to this world, the first thing is probably to find a place to hide and frantically absorb the aura of this world for cultivation, right?
Although Ling Tianxiao didn't believe it, he was still relieved that his son could have such an achievement, and he would go out of the door, and who would dare to say that the third child of my family was not good in the future!
A few days later, Ling Xiao reappeared in the Imperial Academy, although he was still the same as before, there was no change, but the eyes of others looking at him had changed greatly, there was originally a lot less ridicule and disdain, but now it was completely gone, more envy and ...... Eat one's heart out.
There are no secrets among the nobles, and if something happens, I'm afraid it will spread throughout the entire aristocratic circle overnight, let alone such a big thing.
The students of the Imperial Academy have been awarded the title of nobility in the past, but they have been directly named a viscount, in people's impressions, there has never been, most of them are knighthoods, like Ling Zhi won the championship in the first sword competition of the Continental Academy at that time, and the reward after returning to China was just the title of a baron, which caused a lot of sensation at the time.
What's even more unbearable is that Ling Xiao, the viscount...... It's still hereditary!
However, after hearing about Ling Xiao's fiefdom, more people finally balanced their hearts. Penzes City, oh Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho, is actually the port city of Penzes that is about to be ravaged by the Orcs, it is estimated that he, the viscount, has not waited to go to a fiefdom once, and it has been trampled there, right?
No one believed that the King of the South would help Ling Xiao fight against the orcs, a fool would do that!
Even if he wanted to win over the Ling family, he wouldn't do it blatantly, not to mention that Pengzes City, everyone knew that it was one of the bases that the King of the South had been operating for many years, and now it was actually given away by His Majesty the King. Hell if the king of the south doesn't have a little resentment in his heart!
It's just that if Ling Xiao is smart, he can completely refuse to go to the fiefdom now, after all, he is not yet an adult, and no one can drive him away from Yanjing, not to mention, Ling Xiao is still a student of the Imperial Academy now.
Ling Xiao still ignored the various glances of those people, and as soon as he returned to the dormitory, Chunlan and Qiuyue, who arrived first, had already cleaned up and greeted Ling Xiao at the door.
The first person to visit would be Qiu Jianhua, the dean of the Imperial Academy, and at this time, Qiu Jianhua didn't have the slightest dean's shelf, as soon as he saw Ling Xiao, he immediately greeted Ling Xiao, what can make such a big man like this, it is not that Ling Xiao was knighted, nor that Ling Xiao broke through the heavenly vein and had a bright future, but that Ling Xiao cured his father!
"I was supposed to go to the Ling Mansion to thank you in person, and take a look at Brother Tianxiao by the way, but there have been many rumors recently, and it is inconvenient for me to go over. But don't worry, as long as you return to the Imperial Academy, no one will be able to lift a finger here!" Qiu Jianhua assured with a proud face.
"Thank you for the dean's concern, but Ling Xiao will leave in a few days, preparing to go to the fiefdom of Penzes City. Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said indifferently.
"What?" Qiu Jianhua was taken aback, then shook his head and said: "No, you can't go over now, it's too dangerous, the threat of the orcs is too great, and you have also participated in the war against the orcs, that's not child's play, what's more, you don't have a single person under your command at all, do you count on the little defenders of Penzes City? The elite have already let the king of the south take it away! Even if, even if the Second Highness has the idea of befriending your Ling family, it is impossible to directly help you, after all, it is your fiefdom." Qiu Jianhua said, wanting to speak and stopped.
Ling Xiao nodded: "What the dean said, Ling Xiao understands, what the dean said is right, it is now my fiefdom, so I can't abandon it there, when the time comes, even if Ling Xiao is still young, he will be criticized, Ling Xiao has already touched the family's reputation once, and I don't want to have a second time." ”
Qiu Jianhua looked at Ling Xiao, opened his mouth slightly, but didn't say anything, what Ling Xiao said was right, as a nobleman, although he has countless privileges and is high, but in the same way, he also has corresponding responsibilities and obligations, one of which is to protect the safety of the people in the territory!
Otherwise, there will be no one in your fiefdom, and you will be left with a nobleman, and you will not be laughed at yet!
"If the virtuous nephew has to go to the fiefdom, then ......" Qiu Jianhua said, took out a card from his pocket, and handed it to Ling Xiao: "Don't postpone, there are 100,000 gold coins here, and you can hire a mercenary team of two or three hundred people for at least a year, and I can rest assured that there are some people to protect you." ”
Seeing that Ling Xiao was going to postpone, Qiu Jianhua looked sincere: "Ling Xiao's virtuous nephew, don't postpone, listen to me, my father's illness, if it is treated by someone else, don't say 100,000, even if it is a million, tens of millions of rewards, Qiu has to give it to others! My father's health is not measured by money, I believe that the virtuous nephew also agrees with this sentence, right?"
Ling Xiao nodded, and Qiu Jianhua continued: "If the virtuous nephew doesn't go to the south, then I will definitely not take out this money, now that you are alone, there are many people who are interested in your sword skills, you are not in the Imperial Academy, alas, I can only do this!"
The dean was so gracious, Ling Xiao could only take it and hand it to Chunlan and Qiuyue for safekeeping.
Qiu Jianhua took a deep look at Ling Xiao before leaving, and then said: "There is still more than a year, it is the first sword competition of the academy jointly organized by the academies of various countries on the mainland, and when the time comes, Ling Xiaoxian's nephew will definitely be able to come back to participate, right?"
Ling Xiao nodded, he also wanted to meet the young masters on the mainland at that time, because recently Ling Xiao had heard a lot of legends about those mysterious "thousand-year-old families" or "thousand-year-old sects", it was said that some of them would mingle in the world for training, and as the first sword competition of the academy in the continent, maybe they could attract such people!
I thought that Shangguan Yutong, Isha and Ye Weini would be the first to hear the news, and the most unfortunate thing was that Li Tianluo's guy came over and said something about Ling Xiao's fiefdom.
What Ling Xiao didn't expect was that the second person to come over was actually ...... Xie Xiaoyan.;
