Chapter 289: It's Him Too
"Who are you?
Several elders of the Ling clan immediately rushed out, about to stop the team that was coming straight forward.
However, it turned out that this was clearly their overthinking.
Because the girl who was surrounded by them, when she was still more than a hundred feet away from them, she ordered the people around her to stop, and walked out alone, saluted Ling Qiuhan, and said, "Uncle Ling, since I saw you once in Cangyan City, but I haven't seen you again for many years, I don't know if you still remember Qianping's niece?"
It turned out that the girl was Xia Qianping, the eldest lady of the Jiuxia Chamber of Commerce.
She originally went to visit the palace in the early morning, wanting to inquire about Su Qin's condition, but was turned away by the palace guards, and later witnessed the scene of the Flame Beast starting to cross the river, so after wandering outside the palace for a while, she chose to return to the Chamber of Commerce, planning to discuss the current situation with her father.
Later, when the two major clans jointly attacked Cangyan City, Xia Chun immediately ordered several masters in the Chamber of Commerce to protect his daughter first, and if necessary, he didn't need to ask him to send Xia Qianping out of the city first.
But it is impossible for Xia Qianping to leave simply, two very important people to her, her father and Su Qin, are still in the city, no matter how much she cherishes her life, there is no possibility of leaving first.
So when the situation of the big battle became more and more tense, several masters who protected her had no choice but to escort her to a place not far from the city wall first, so that she could leave at any time as soon as possible, and then divided three people to go around to reconnoiter the situation, so as to guard against the danger that might come.
Therefore, until Su Qin flew out of the palace unharmed and fought with Su Mutian, Xia Qianping, who got the news, was still very comforted in her heart, after all, this young man who made her more and more concerned was not really seriously injured to the point where it was difficult to move as she had heard before, but seemed to be very energetic.
But when Xia Chun was trapped under the hands of the Quartet Shield, and Su Qin was besieged by Su Xing and the three great elders of the Su family, her heart hung in the air again.
And it was at this moment that the masters of the Ling family felt it.
Xia Qianping, who learned the news, made a judgment in a very short period of time, and finally decided to leave Cangyan City, but not to escape, but to persuade the Ling family to stand on the side she needed.
"Remember, of course I remember you, you weren't as tall as my legs. ”
Ten years ago, when Ling Qiuhan had not yet become the great patriarch of the Ling clan, he had come to Cangyan City once and met Xia Qianping, who was only a few years old at the time.
Now that ten years have passed, Xia Qianping's appearance and figure have changed greatly, but the eccentric energy that comes out of her bones is getting stronger and stronger.
Therefore, even if he was a man of all kinds in the clan, when he saw Xia Qianping giving a salute to him, his face couldn't help but soften a lot, and he nodded and said.
"It's good that Uncle Ling can remember, my niece is still worried that you have forgotten about it a long time ago. It's a bit windy here, I wonder if it's inconvenient for you to accompany your niece down there to talk?"
Xia Qianping slowly stood up straight, but her feet were a little shaky, because after all, she only had the cultivation in the early stage of the Earth Hell Realm, and in order to reduce the vigilance of everyone in the Ling family, she had to use a precious wind talisman, so that she temporarily gained the ability to fly in the sky, and now the effect of the talisman was about to dissipate, and the scene was about to be unsupportable.
"Okay, let's go down. A few of you, go and do a favor to all of you in the Nine Summer Chamber of Commerce, and if there are any more people running over from Cangyan City, stop them all. ”
Ling Qiuhan saw Xia Qianping's situation, and at the same time, he also saw the scene where some masters of the Su family and the Ouyang family wanted to chase after him, so after agreeing to the latter's request, he ordered a few elders of the Ling family to join with those masters of the Nine Summer Chamber of Commerce, in case someone came to disturb their conversation.
"Alright, tell me what you came for. ”
Ling Qiuhan took the three great elders of the Ling clan, as well as his son Ling Jiangtian, and fell to the ground with Xia Qianping, and asked about the latter's purpose in the first sentence.
Seeing that he was so straightforward, Xia Qianping didn't drag his feet, put on a smiling expression on his face, and said, "Uncle Ling, you are really direct enough." Niece, I actually have something special, I just want to ask you to help the royal family, help Uncle Chennan, the lord of the country, and resist the joint attack of the Su family and the Ouyang family. ”
"Oh, you want me to help you on your side?"
Ling Qiuhan was originally listening to his son's analysis, and the content was about why he should help the royal family, but now seeing Xia Qianping say the same, it was inevitable that there would be some fluctuations in his heart.
But because he didn't see the situation at the beginning of the war, he only saw the scene of Xia Chun being trapped by the Quartet Shield, and thought that the Jiuxia Chamber of Commerce had already chosen to stand on the side of the royal family from the beginning, and Xia Qianping's identity was enough to be half of the talker of the Jiuxia Chamber of Commerce, so he fundamentally misunderstood the position of the Jiuxia Chamber of Commerce.
However, Xia Qianping wanted this effect, otherwise she would not have only mentioned helping the royal family in her words, and did not say a word about helping her father.
"It's not to help us, it's to help the royal family. ”
Xia Qianping deliberately corrected Ling Qiuhan's words, thus deepening the latter's misunderstanding even more.
"Let's talk about your reasons, I can't just let my Ling family get involved in this big whirlpool. ”
Ling Qiuhan maintained a cautious attitude after all, and did not immediately nod in agreement.
He hadn't even listened to his son's words, how could he make a choice for the sake of an outsider.
However, Xia Qianping's answer surprised him very much, he thought that she would be like Ling Jiangtian, and put forward several truths to prove how correct it was to help the royal family, but Xia Qianping only made a slight move in total, and said a very simple sentence: "My reason is because of one person!"
"A person? because of a person?"
Ling Qiuhan couldn't help but feel extremely strange in his heart.
Ling Jiangtian's third reason just now was that it was because of a person, and now Xia Qianping also said that it was because of a person, is this a coincidence, or is there some other reason in it?
And before Ling Qiuhan could ask who that person was, Xia Qianping raised his hand and pointed to the sky of Cangyan City, with a strange look in his eyes, and said: "Uncle Ling, niece doesn't know if you have seen the situation in the city clearly, the person I want to talk about is a young man who is being chased and killed by the great patriarch of the Su family, his name is Su Qin!"
She finally introduced Su Qin's name for Ling Jiangtian, and at the same time, Ling Qiuhan fell into a deep shock.
"Is that him? So the guy you're talking about is also him?"
The first to react was Ling Jiangtian.
He was still depressed just now because he was interrupted by Xia Qianping's appearance, although he heard that the latter also wanted his father to help the royal family, and he wanted to share the same direction as himself, but the most critical reason in his heart could not be said in time, and he always felt a little unhappy.
However, since Xia Qianping even said the same reasons as himself, there was nothing to continue to be depressed, and he was still surprised by the idea, after all, he didn't know that Xia Qianping and Su Qin knew each other.
"What's the matter, weren't you discussing Brother Qin just now?"
Xia Qianping's mouth opened slightly, and a pair of delicate eyebrows were raised, but she didn't expect that the people of the Ling clan had also paid attention to Su Qin.
"Well, I was just trying to persuade my dad to help the royal family through this difficult time, but I have more reasons than yours, except that the third one happens to be the same as what you said. ”
Ling Jiangtian explained a little, and at the same time looked at his father, but because Ling Qiuhan hadn't said anything yet, it was not good for him to say too much in front of Xia Qianping.
"I see. ”
Xia Qianping's eyes rolled, and she already had a rough idea in her heart, seeing that Ling Jiangtian seemed to still have concerns, she guessed that he probably hadn't been able to explain the reason to Ling Qiuhan before, so she smiled and said, "I don't know why you support Brother Qin, but you can listen to what I have to say together." ”
When she said this, even Ling Jiangtian became curious, because after all, he had only been in contact with Su Qin for a while, and his understanding of the latter was not particularly sufficient, although he had already felt a sense of pity for Su Qin in his heart, it did not prevent him from wanting to listen to other people's opinions on the latter.
As for Ling Qiuhan and the other elders of the Ling clan, they were naturally more curious than Ling Jiangtian, they didn't know about Su Qin's situation at all before, but they had just seen the scene of the latter being chased by the resurrection, and they had just seen Su Qin's appearance a little.
Seeing that the eyes of these people looking at her obviously became much brighter, Xia Qianping couldn't help but straighten her waist, but instead of showing her figure, she put on a posture as if she was recommending her own treasures, her complexion was neat, and she said:
"The reason why I want to support Brother Qin, and then support the royal family, is actually very simple. Because Brother Qin, he is the person Qianping has seen since he was a child who has the most hope of surpassing the Nine Tribulations Realm in the future and stepping into the legendary Zhiyuan Realm, for this person who will be able to overturn the entire Cangyan Country in the palm of his hand in the future, I also want to support his choice, help the Chen family, and help the royal family!"
Unexpectedly, she actually made such a big evaluation for Su Qin, who had not yet completely stepped into the realm of the Yuan Fetus, which immediately made all the Ling clan masters present stunned!
