Chapter IV: Substitution
Ling Zhengxiong said to Ling Zhan: "Ling Zhan, this matter is the patriarch's negligence, and the responsibility lies with me! From now on, you can go back to your original place of residence and enjoy the same treatment. ”
After listening to Ling Zhengxiong's words, Ling Zhan was a little stunned.
Ling Zhan didn't expect that as the head of the clan, Ling Zhengxiong would actually apologize to himself in front of all the elders for a waste who couldn't cultivate! For a while, Ling Zhan was a little dumbfounded.
At this time, Ling Feiyun hurriedly shouted: "Ling Zhan, what else is there to send, don't you hurry up and thank the patriarch!"
After just a few minutes of contact, Ling Zhan already had some understanding of Ling Zhengxiong's character.
But it was precisely in this way that Ling Zhan felt a headache.
In Ling Zhan's view, Ling Zhengxiong is a person who only puts the interests of the family first, and to put it mildly, it means to be upright and selfless, and to put it mildly, it is impersonal, hard-hearted!
For the sake of the family, Ling Zhengxiong can sacrifice a qiē.
In his previous life, Ling Zhan had such a chief. For such a person, Ling Zhan knows too well.
Ling Xue's cultivation talent is ordinary, and it is impossible for him to have any great development in martial arts, while Ling Feng's martial arts talent is excellent, although he is not as good as Wang Shaonan, Feng Xuening, and Du Nan, but among the younger generation of the Ling family, he is a well-deserved leader!
Using Ling Xue's happiness alone to exchange Ling Feng's life, in Ling Zhengxiong's opinion, is definitely worth it.
Ling Zhan knew that Ling Zheng's ambition had been decided, and it basically could not be changed.
But Ling Zhan wanted to try again.
Ling Zhan arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Patriarch." ”
Ling Zhengxiong waved his hand and said, "No thanks, this is my business!"
Ling Zhan continued: "Patriarch, my sister Ling Xue ......"
Before Ling Zhan could finish speaking, Ling Zhengxiong stopped: "Regarding Ling Xue's matter, you don't need to say much, it's so decided." ”
Ling Zhan was unconvinced, and said: "Patriarch, among the Ling family, there are many women whose martial arts talent is weaker than Ling Xue, why do you choose Ling Xue, Ling Zhan is unconvinced!"
Ling Zhengxiong said with a straight face: "You are right, it is true that some women are inferior to Ling Xue in terms of martial arts talent, but these people are either married to women, or they are still too young, and in the entire Ling family, only Ling Xue is suitable! Besides, for so many years, the Ling family has not treated Ling Xue badly! Now that she sacrifices for the benefit of the family, Ling Xue should feel honored!"
Hearing Ling Zhengxiong's words, Ling Zhan felt cold all over, like a basin of cold water poured on his head, cold to the bone marrow!
Sure enough, as Ling Zhan guessed, in Ling Zhengxiong's eyes, every child of the Ling family, including himself, was an item, and as long as it was in the interests of the Ling family, he could throw it away!
This kind of person is terrible.
Ling Zhan said to Ling Zhengxiong: "Patriarch, is there really no way?"
Ling Zhengxiong shook his head and said, "Ling Feng is a genius of the younger generation of the Ling family! As long as he can survive this year, he will definitely be able to enter the Xuanyang Gate next year! Therefore, Ling Feng must survive!"
Ling Zhan closed his eyes, his face full of helplessness.
Just when everyone thought that Ling Zhan was going to compromise, Ling Zhan suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were full of light! In this compelling gaze, some elders didn't even dare to look at him.
Ling Zhan said coldly: "Since this is the case, then this time I will go for Ling Feng!"
What the?
Ling Zhan wants to replace Ling Feng to ascend to the Immortal Ring?
The elders here could hardly believe what they had heard!
Everyone stared at Ling Zhan in disbelief, as if they were looking at a monster!
Is it really Ling Zhan who is standing in front of him? Is it really that Ling Zhan, who is only willing and timid as a mouse?
At this time, everyone realized that maybe the person in front of them was the real Ling Zhan!
Even if Ling Zhan couldn't cultivate, even if Ling Zhan had a cowardly personality, at this moment, a force emerged from Ling Zhan's body.
At that moment, a man shouted, "No!
Everyone shifted their gaze to the speaker, who was Ling Feiyun.
Ling Feiyun said: "I absolutely don't agree to let Ling Zhan go to the Immortal Ascend to death! He is the only bone and blood left by Ling Feihua, if Ling Zhan dies, then Ling Feihua's lineage will be completely cut off! I will never allow this matter, not only me, but my father will not agree." ”
Ling Zhan knew that Ling Feiyun had a barrier against him, but at the critical moment, he was able to speak for himself, and Ling Zhan still felt a warm heart.
However, Ling Zhan would not let Ling Feiyun ruin his intentions with a word.
Ling Zhan said: "Patriarch, I, Ling Zhan, am just a waste, exchange my life for Ling Feng's life, this business should be worth it! ”
Ling Zhan unknowingly, he used the charm technique!
Ling Zhengxiong's spiritual power was only four stars, only a little higher than Ling Zhan. However, Ling Zhan used the secret method of using spiritual power, so invisibly, it still had an impact on Ling Zhengxiong.
Ling Zhengxiong fell into deep thought.
Obviously, Ling Zhengxiong was a little moved by Ling Zhan's suggestion.
Ling Zhan was right, he was a waste. The role of such people in the family is to eat and wait for death, and to pass on the ancestry! There are too many such people in the family, and there is no more than him, and there are no less than him.
And if Ling Zhan is allowed to replace Ling Feng to ascend to the Immortal Ring, he can not only save Ling Feng's life, but also use waste, which is definitely a sure thing.
Just when Ling Zhengxiong wanted to agree to Ling Zhan's request, Ling Feiyun suddenly said: "Patriarch, don't forget, if you want to participate in the Immortal Ascension Ring, you must at least have the cultivation of a one-star martial artist! Ling Zhan is just an ordinary person, if you go to participate in the Immortal Ascension Ring, won't it make others laugh at me that there is no one in the Ling family?"
Ling Zhengxiong nodded, and said to Ling Zhan: "Ling Zhan, at the critical moment, you can share the worries of the family, and the patriarch is still very pleased." However, you can't cultivate, but you don't have a chance to ascend to immortal. ”
Ling Zhan hurriedly said, "Patriarch, you are wrong, I can cultivate." ”
Ling Zhan's words surprised everyone present again!
Ling Zhan was born with clogged pores, which was recognized by countless people, otherwise Ling Zhan would not have been a waste for so many years.
But today Ling Zhan actually said that he could cultivate, isn't this a big joke in the world? For a while, everyone had a feeling of ridicule.
Ling Zhengxiong shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, needless to say, I know you want to save your sister, and I believe your sister will also be grateful to you." ”
Ling Zhan said seriously: "Patriarch, I didn't lie to you! I can really cultivate!"
Ling Zhengxiong looked at Ling Zhan with tears and laughter, and said, "If you can cultivate, why are you still an ordinary person after so many years?"
Ling Zhan said: "Patriarch, in fact, you don't know something. The pores of my whole body are not all closed, and I can still absorb the aura from the surroundings, but the aura absorbed is relatively rare. Patriarch, as long as I am given enough resources, I am sure that I will be able to raise my cultivation to a one-star martial disciple before ascending to the Immortal Championship!"
After listening to Ling Zhan's words, Ling Zhengxiong's eyes lit up and said, "What you said is true?"
Before Ling Zhan could speak, Ling Feiyun shouted: "What nonsense! Ling Zhan, is this the place where you can talk about it? Back then, the family masters had already asserted that the pores of your whole body were blocked, could it be that those masters would still be able to cheat?" At this time, Ling Feiyun was really nervous.
He really didn't want Ling Zhan to participate in any immortal ascension competition! Ling Zhan was his brother's only heir, and he would have to rely on him to inherit the lineage in the future. If he died, he would be so sorry for his brother.
Ling Zhengxiong glanced at Ling Feiyun coldly and said, "Shut up!" Ling Feiyun, this is the third time you have interrupted the words of the patriarch! If there is a next time, the patriarch will not be spared!"
Seeing Ling Zhengxiong getting angry, Ling Feiyun's face changed, and he hurriedly said respectfully, "Yes." ”
Ling Zhengxiong looked at Ling Zhan again and said, "What you just said is true?"
Ling Zhan said: "Every sentence is true. ”
Ling Zhengxiong nodded and said, "If you want to reach a one-star martial artist before ascending to the Immortal Ring, what resources do you need?"
Ling Zhan knew that Ling Zhengxiong was already moved, and his heart was overjoyed. He thought for a moment and said, "Fifty one-star crystal nuclei, five two-star crystal nuclei!"
Ling Zhengxiong snorted, and secretly said in his heart: These resources are enough for a martial artist with good qualifications to cultivate to a nine-star martial apprentice. This Ling Zhan's qualifications are really too wasteful.
However, it was worth it to exchange these resources for Ling Feng's life.
For a family like the Ling family, the crystal nucleus of one star and two stars is not too important. As long as it is not a crystal nucleus of more than three stars, it is easy to say.
Ling Zhengxiong said almost without thinking: "I can give you these things, but Ling Zhan, you have to remember that in this matter, if you agree, there will be no room for repentance!"
Ling Zhan Zhengse said: "I understand!"
Ling Zhengxiong said with a smile: "Okay, this matter is settled! After a month, Ling Zhan will replace Ling Feng in the battle to ascend to the Immortal Arena!"
Ling Feiyun was still a little unwilling and said, "Patriarch, my father ......"
Without waiting for Ling Feiyun to finish speaking, Ling Zhengxiong said impatiently: "Elder Taishang's patriarch personally went to say it, I believe that Elder Taishang will understand this patriarch." ”
Seeing that Ling Feiyun seemed to have something to say, Ling Zhengxiong couldn't help but snort coldly and said, "Ling Feiyun, this patriarch's patience with you is limited. If you still don't agree, then let your son Ling Shuang go to participate in the Immortal Ascension Ring!"
Hearing this, a look of helplessness flashed in Ling Feiyun's eyes. Let Ling Shuang go to participate in the Immortal Ascension Ring? Ling Feiyun was reluctant.
At this time, the gaze of all the elders present looking at Ling Zhan had turned into pity, a gaze that looked at the mortal.
Seeing the expressions of the people around him, Lin Ran naturally knew what they were thinking.
Ling Zhan sneered in his heart: You think that I will definitely die this time when I ascend to the Immortal Arena, but how do you know that this Immortal Enhancement Tournament is the opportunity for me Ling Zhan to leap into the Dragon Gate?
Ling Zhan said to Ling Zhengxiong: "Patriarch, then my sister Ling Xue shouldn't have to marry Wang Shaoxiong!"
Ling Zhengxiong said with a smile: "Wang Shaoxiong is just a gentleman, how can he be worthy of Ling Xue?"
Ling Zhan glanced at Ling Zhengxiong deeply and said, "I hope the patriarch can keep his word!" After speaking, Ling Zhan arched his hand around again and said, "Elders, Ling Zhan retires!"
After speaking, Ling Zhan withdrew from the Ling family ancestral hall.
Ling Zhengxiong looked at Ling Zhan's back with complicated eyes, sighed, and said, "I didn't expect the son of Fenghua to have such a responsibility! It's a pity that he can't cultivate martial arts, otherwise he will definitely be one of the popular candidates for the future patriarch!"
Hearing the patriarch's evaluation, all the elders present were shocked! They didn't expect Ling Zhengxiong to have such a high opinion of Ling Zhan!
