Volume 1: The Rising Mountains Chapter 5: Situ Offerings

"Situ Offering!" Everyone in the hall, except for Murong Leiming, greeted the visitor respectfully, only to see an old man with white hair but a trace of essence between his eyebrows walking into the courtyard. Don't look at this old man's ordinary clothes, but there is a palpitating atmosphere between his gestures.

"Who's making a fuss!" After Situ Zhong entered the hall, he didn't look at Murong Leiming and the Ling family, but just looked at Ling Aoyun and said lightly. Although Situ Zhong, who suddenly appeared, looked extremely unreasonable, none of the people present, including Ling Aoyun, showed a look of displeasure on their faces, as if it should be so. Because this person is the Ling family's strength to reach the realm of military generals, don't look at Ling Aoyun and Murong Leiming are great names in Qingshan Town, but in front of Situ Zhong, the two of them are just outright juniors.

"Situ worship, the disciples of Murong Villa want to compete with my Ling family disciples in advance before the annual competition in Qingshan Town, and the sound of the fight just now disturbed the Qing Xiu of Situ's worship, please Situ worship Haihan!" Ling Aoyun clenched his fists and said to Situ Zhong. Although he knew that Situ Zhong was on his side, and he even came out to support him at this time, but Ling Aoyun, who was upright by nature, did not fall into the well in front of Situ Zhong, but said neither humbly, nor arrogantly, but impartially, he Ling Aoyun also took matters into his own hands to deal with Murong Leiming, and never did anything like a fox or a tiger.

"Now that the competition is over, the idlers are waiting to leave quickly, and Hugh is sparing me for Qingxiu!" Situ Zhong glanced at Ling Aoyun and Murong Leiming, and he said lightly, the movements of the previous fights in the Ling family's compound were not small, he had actually been paying attention to it secretly, he came out this time to support Ling Aoyun, and wanted to give this Murong Leiming some color. However, at this time, Ling Aoyun had no intention of using his hand to deal with Murong Leiming, and he didn't want to take the opportunity to attack a junior.

"Good! Patriarch Ling, I remember today's events in Murong Villa, and we will divide the winners and losers in the annual competition in Qingshan Town! In addition, I will remember the bet with your Ling family's Young Master Chen! Murong Leiming saw that Situ Zhongdu had already come out, and he knew that he couldn't take advantage of the Ling family here today.

"I'm not far away!" Ling Aoyun said lightly, but at this time, he looked at Murong Leiming's expression that he was angry and wanted to die, but he couldn't attack, but his heart was extremely happy and comfortable. Today, Murong Leiming originally wanted to come to the Ling family to save face, but in the end, stealing chickens and rice did not make a loss, and he also damaged his son Murong Fengxue, which made him feel like he wanted to laugh three times.

"Let's go!" Murong Leiming's face was not good, and he helped Murong Fengxue and left the Ling family's compound.

"Poof!" Xingchen watched Murong Leiming leave, and after he left, a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out of the corner of his mouth, and then the whole person fell to the ground at once.

"Chen'er!" Ling Aoyun was startled, and then hugged Xingchen.

"Get out of the way, I'll come!" Situ Zhong looked at Xingchen who spurted out a mouthful of blood, his figure flashed and Ling Aoyun retreated, and then his palm was attached to Xingchen's back, and a pure and peaceful fighting spirit instantly protected Xingchen's heart.

"Father, I didn't disgrace you!" Xing Chen wiped a handful of blood from the corner of his mouth, raised his head to look at Ling Aoyun, and then showed a smile.

"No, you are worthy of being my Ling Aoyun's son, you really give me Ling's family face! Don't worry, Murong Leiming, that old bastard, I will deal with it! You heal your wounds first! Ling Aoyun nodded and showed another relieved smile, Xingchen's performance today gave him too many surprises.

"Don't talk yet, calm down, I'll help you suppress the injury, and prepare medicine to heal the injury!" Situ Zhong said that the martial arts level powerhouse has a strong fighting spirit repair ability, and he has forcibly suppressed Xingchen's injury in a few breaths, but this is only temporary, as soon as his hand leaves Xingchen's heart, it will lose its effect, and if you want to suppress the injury, you also need special medicine to heal the injury.

"Quick, go and ask Pharmacist Li!" Ling Aoyun immediately shouted.

"It's coming!" An old man with the same white hair rushed over with a medicine box, this white-haired old man is called Pharmacist Li, his real name is Li Bencao, he is a well-known alchemist in Qingshan Town, he has been obsessed with refining medicine and medicine for decades, and he has a lot of experience in refining medicine and healing injuries.

Whenever the martial artists of the Ling family go wrong in their cultivation, or if they are injured when they go out to practice, most of them rely on Pharmacist Li for treatment, so Pharmacist Li's status and popularity in the Ling family are quite good, after all, when the martial arts are difficult and dangerous, anyone can be injured. If it weren't for Pharmacist Li's Douqi cultivation talent, Pharmacist Li would even have the opportunity to become a legendary alchemist.

"Just now he received a yellow-level martial art in his chest, his internal organs must have been shocked, he can't have too much activity, take this heart protection to stabilize his heart first, and I will configure medicine for treatment according to your situation later!" Pharmacist Li said.

"Old Li! I also know how to heal, my injuries are not as serious as you think! Xingchen sat cross-legged on the ground and then said with a smile.

"Chen'er, don't be reckless, you don't have a fighting spirit in your body to protect your body, if you take a martial art, your injuries will be much more serious than you imagined, and you must recuperate!" Ling Aoyun also said.

"I'm hurt, but it's not as bad as you think!" Xingchen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and then said.

"Patriarch, Xingchen usually knows the way of medicine, we should believe his words!" A middle-aged man behind Ling Aoyun said that this middle-aged man was Ling Aoyun's younger brother and Xingchen's second uncle Ling Yihai.

"But!" Ling Aoyun was still worried about Xingchen's injuries, knowing that during this day, his three children were all poisoned and injured before and after.

"Patriarch! Young Master Chen's injuries are not as serious as imagined, that Murong Fengxue is even more useless than we imagined, Young Master Chen's internal organs have only received some shocks, but they are not serious, and they can recover after taking some potions for a few days! Situ Zhong opened his mouth and said, Situ is a master of martial arts cultivation who has reached the general level, his perception ability is amazing, he can completely perceive the condition of the injury in Xingchen's body through his fighting spirit, and Xingchen's injury is not as serious as he imagined.

"That's good! Then send it to recuperate as soon as possible! Ling Aoyun said.

"Father, I'm really fine! I'm not going to joke with my life! I also know a little bit about medicine, I want to go see Sister Ziyue and Brother Tian! Xingchen waved his hand and stood up and then said, looking at the tone of his voice, it seemed that his injuries were really not particularly serious.

"Patriarch, as long as Young Master Chen doesn't engage in strenuous activities, or gets hit hard again, the old man guarantees that he will be fine!" Situ Zhong also nodded, and then said that Ling Aoyun should not be too worried.

"That's good! Ziyue and Tianqi are in the side room in the backyard! Ling Aoyun nodded, he knew that Xingchen had a good relationship with Ling Ziyue and Ling Tianqi, and he was also very relieved that he had this heart at this time, and he also knew that Xingchen was indeed proficient in some medical skills.

"Brother Chen, I'll go with you to see Sister Ziyue and Brother Tianqi!" Yan Xue'er also ran to Xingchen's side.

"Chen'er come with me!" Ling Aoyun nodded and motioned for Xingchen and Yan Xue'er to follow him to the backyard, while Ling Yihai and many Ling family elders also followed behind Xingchen.

"Ziyue and Tianqi are inside, Chen'er, you and Xue'er will go in with me, and the rest will wait at the door!" Ling Aoyun glanced at the people behind him, and then said.

Xing Chen entered and saw two bloodstained men and women lying on the two hospital beds in the room, and there were several servants who were treating their wounds next to them, and these two people lying down were Ling Aoyun's children, Ling Ziyue and Ling Tianqi, who were also Xing Chen's brother and sister!

"Xiaochen, you're here!" Ling Tianqi, who was lying on the hospital bed, found that Xingchen was coming, opened his eyes with some difficulty, and then pulled the corners of his mouth, obviously Ling Tianqi's injuries were very serious, and even he had some difficulty speaking.

"Brother Tian! How are you? Xing Chen asked after a quick glance at the injuries on Ling Tianqi's body.

"Don't worry! Your heavenly brother...... I...... Can't die...... I'll get back to the field this time...... Ahem, ahem! Ling Tianqi said with some difficulty.

"Brother Tian, you are seriously injured, don't speak, I'll go and bring you some homemade healing herbs later!" Xingchen said, Xingchen found that Ling Tianqi had a serious injury, and in many places he had even seen Sen Ran's white bones, which was obviously not an injury that could heal itself by relying on the fighting spirit of his own cultivation.

"Damn it!" Xing Chen frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Sister!" Xing Chen briefly checked Ling Tianqi's situation, and then turned his head to look at Ling Ziyue, who had fallen into a coma lying on the other hospital bed, and at the same time stretched out his hand to clasp Ling Ziyue's vein.

"The pulse is strong, and it is not a sign of extreme weakness like the usual poisoning!" Xing Chen groaned secretly in his heart, and then lifted Ling Ziyue's sleeve, Ling Ziyue's arm like mutton fat and jade milk At this time, there was a black line under the skin, which should be the poison in Ling Ziyue's body was spreading through the meridians.

"The toxicity is weird, and it has a strong ability to corrode the fighting spirit, if the poison spreads to the dantian, then the sister's fighting spirit will be all wasted, and she will be reduced to a waste person from now on. Even if the poison is sealed in a certain part of the body, this poison will still slowly corrode the fighting spirit, and even if the poisonous gas is lifted after a long time, my sister's fighting spirit of years of penance will also be turned into nothing! Xingchen held Ling Ziyue's wrist and said in a deep voice, don't look at Xingchen's young age, he has come to a similar conclusion to Pharmacist Li, who has been immersed in the medical Tao for most of his life.

"Chen'er, there is a way to solve it!" Ling Aoyun looked at Xingchen and said, although he also knew that his son was quite talented in medicine on weekdays, and at the same time, Pharmacist Li was very close, but the problem that Pharmacist Li couldn't solve, even if Xingchen was quite talented in this way, he shouldn't be able to solve it

"This poison is weird, I can't solve it!" Xingchen pondered for a while and shook his head and said.

"Father, this poison is extremely weird, I don't think this should be the poison that we should have in a place like Qingshan Town, and the annual competition in Qingshan Town is about to begin, who is going to attack my sister? Could it be that there is a conspiracy against our Ling family in the middle! Xingchen remembered Murong Feng who came to find fault before, and Xingchen felt that things were not so simple

"You've guessed right, if nothing else, this incident should be led by Murong Villa in the back!" Ling Aoyun looked at Xingchen's appearance and nodded, Xingchen is his adopted son, and since he was a child, he has a kind of calmness that does not match his age, but it is a pity that his talent in martial arts is not good, otherwise he really wants to cultivate Xingchen as the next patriarch of the Ling family, but it is a pity that the Ling family is a martial heirloom, and the position of the patriarch is absolutely impossible to fall on a person who has even broken through the martial arts cultivation to the martial arts class.

"Those guys in Murong Villa are really damned!" Yan Xue'er pursed her mouth next to her.

Xing Chen saw Ling Ziyue and Ling Tianqi lying on the hospital bed, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Ling Ziyue and Ling Tianqi are a few years older than him, although the two sisters and brothers have no direct blood relationship with Xingchen, but since Xingchen came to the Ling family and was accepted by Ling Aoyun as a righteous son, the two also treat Xingchen as their own brother, and take great care of Xingchen, the two sisters and brothers have things, Xingchen's share is only a lot more, even if Xingchen was checked by the family elders to be a cultivation waste material that could not break through the shackles of martial artists congenitally, their care and care for Xingchen was not a little less, Mrs. Ling Aoyun died of illness at an early age, Ling Ziyue, who was a few years older, to some extent, took on the role of sister and mother for the youngest brother in the family. Therefore, even if it was a 'waste material' in the Xingchen family, because of the relationship between Ling Ziyue and Ling Tianqi, even if there were no peers or elders in the Ling family, who respected martial arts, no one dared to ridicule or ridicule Xingchen in front of Ling Ziyue and Ling Tianqi.

You must know that this is almost impossible to exist in some other martial arts families, because in this martial arts world of the Firmament Continent, if there is no strong enough fighting spirit cultivation, in this world, he is almost despised by everyone, and even despised by the lowest level of existence, no matter what identity he has.

Xing Chen looked at Ling Tianqi, who was lying on the bed coughing painfully, and Ling Ziyue, who was unconscious, and his state of mind that had been like an old monk for many years had been turbulent for the first time.

"Brother Tian, you and Sister Ziyue take good care of your injuries! It's not over! I will definitely find a way to heal your injuries and help you get justice! Xing Chen looked at Ling Tianqi, who was lying on the hospital bed coughing painfully, and then said, obviously Ling Tianqi, who was lying on the hospital bed just now, didn't know what had just happened outside, he only knew that the people from Murong Villa had been here.

"Xiao Chen, it's okay if you have this heart, when I'm ready, Brother Tian will take you to kill that group of bastards in Murong Villa!" Ling Tianqi showed a smile after hearing Xing Chen's words, although he and Xing Chen were not brothers, but the two had a good relationship since childhood.

"Brother Tian, from today onwards I am no longer the same person I used to be!" Xing Chen looked at Ling Tianqi and said seriously.

"Good...... Brothers! Ahem, cough, cough ......" Ling Tianqi smiled and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a complete sentence because of his injuries.

"Okay, Yichen, let Tianqi and Ziyue rest here, you were also injured just now, go back and recuperate, you don't have to worry about the people over there in Murong Villa, my father will get justice for you!" Ling Aoyun said.

"Good!" Xing Chen nodded, he also knew that he couldn't disturb Ling Tianqi's recuperation at this time.

"Xue'er, you send Chen'er back to rest and heal first!" Ling Aoyun said.

"Yes! Patriarch! Yan Xue'er obediently agreed.

……

"Ling Hu, Ling Ying, all the members of the Family Life and Death Hall are gathered!" Ling Aoyun asked Yan Xue'er to help Xingchen go back to recuperate, and then he turned around and left the room and shouted to the people standing outside the door.

"Understood!"

"Understood!"

The two middle-aged men standing by the door with indifferent expressions but with Ling Ran's momentum immediately agreed.

These two people are called Ling Hu and Ling Ying, they are twin brothers, and they are Ling Aoyun's most trusted henchmen, both of them have the strength of a third-order great martial artist in their cultivation, and they are also the main and deputy hall masters of the Ling family's strongest martial arts organization, the Hall of Life and Death.

And the so-called Ling Family Hall of Life and Death is an institution composed of a group of orphans with good martial arts talents adopted by the Ling family since childhood, this institution only obeys the orders of the Ling family patriarch and specializes in performing some tasks with a high risk factor, and countless enemies of the Ling family are all under the hands of the Ling family's Life and Death Hall, it can be said that the Ling family's Life and Death Hall is the most feared institution in the outside world.

"The others and I go to the council chamber to continue the family meeting!" Ling Aoyun turned his head and walked towards the conference hall, his two children were seriously injured and bedridden by a sneak attack today, and the people of Murong Villa immediately came to the door to provoke, if it weren't for his righteous son's unusual performance to pull back a game for his Ling family, his Ling family would probably be disgraced after today.

Ling Aoyun knew Murong Leiming very well, he knew that today's matter was not over, Murong Villa would definitely have a backhand, his Ling family had to deal with it, and at the same time, he had to give Murong Villa some color. His Ling family has never taken the initiative to stir up trouble, but if someone else violates the Ling family, their Ling family will definitely give the most thunderous response.
