Xue Wu's tone was cold, "I don't think you want to say anything to me, as for your clansmen in this mansion, there are some things that your Ling family patriarch knows!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Ling Xiao to answer, so he withdrew with the people of the Sword Alliance, and the people who belonged to the Sword Alliance in the same place only left one Hu Liu!

The Dao Alliance withdrew because they didn't want to have a conflict with themselves, leaving Hu Liu, to be a liaison person! And the Dao Alliance didn't care about the Ling family, it was very likely that the Ling family had reached some agreement with the Dao Alliance during this time, or that part of the Ling family's position had fallen to the Dao Alliance! Good means! Let the Ling family deal with Ling Xiao, the junior of the Ling family!

But helplessly, Ling Xiao still had to meet with the Ling family first in order to find out the truth of the matter!

The night has just fallen, the house is still brightly lit, Ling Xiao has just stepped into the courtyard, and has been discovered by the sharp-eyed subordinates, and a stack of announcements has been transmitted to the backyard, "Young Master Xiao has returned home!"

When the Ling family met, Hu Liu didn't want to be a thorn in his side, and after a glance at Ling Xiao, he turned around and left with a hint of murder in his eyes!

And with the report of the next person, a group of Ling family members came out to meet this famous descendant of the Ling family!

Patriarch Ling Zhenrui, clan uncle Ling Zhenxin, cousin Ling Dong, branch Ling Shuang, guard captain Ling Yue, and even several old deacons who were driven out of Lingxiao Fort a few years ago were all impressively listed!

But looking at these familiar faces, looking at these direct blood relatives, and thinking about the current situation, Ling Xiao was a little unhappy!

Patriarch Ling Zhenrui also seemed to be a little embarrassed, seeing that Ling Xiao was silent for a long time, he had to take a few steps forward, "Xiao'er, it's good to come back, let's go to the house and talk!

The head of the clan spoke, and the others obediently dispersed and went back to the room without mentioning it, but the cousin Ling Dong stepped forward and whispered to his patriarch father, "Father, don't forget to tell your cousin about the things entrusted by Xue Wu's predecessors!"

Ling Zhenrui, who was still smiling, heard his son say this, but his face sank, and he looked at Ling Xiao's face with a little worry, before he said sharply to his son, "I have my own sense of proportion for my father, and I don't prepare a rest place for your cousin!"

Although Ling Xiao's face did not show it, he sighed in his heart, what he was most afraid of had finally happened! Ling Dong's cousin's words clearly showed one meaning, that is, the Ling family had already formed an alliance with the Sword Alliance!

And this is not the thing that makes Ling Xiao feel the most chilling, the fact that makes Ling Xiao even more uneasy is that his cousin Ling Dong has always been smart, how could he say such things to his father in front of him as soon as he entered the door!

It is very likely that he is testing his reaction, and the scene in front of him is more like a performance, how can there be no participation of the head of Ling Zhenrui's clan!

After Ling Zhenrui, his uncle and patriarch, put his arms into the house and sat down, Ling Xiao spoke, "The people of the Sword Alliance are treacherous, and the useful people are treated as guests, and when they are useless, they fall into the ground! The Li Empire has almost been subverted by it, our Ling family is such a weak and small family, what capital do we have to form an alliance with the Sword Alliance?"

In line with the idea of doing his best to obey the destiny of heaven, Ling Xiao wanted to impress the patriarch with words and make him take back his fate!

But Ling Zhenrui didn't say a word, just listened to Ling Xiao's words quietly, with a satisfied smile on his face!

Finally, Ling Xiao also realized that something was wrong, so he had to stop talking.

Seeing that Ling Xiao finally stopped, Ling Zhenrui laughed, "After the Ling family has a queen, as the patriarch, I am comforted in my heart! Ling Xiao, do you really think I am the kind of short-sighted person?"

Then, without waiting for Ling Xiao to answer, he began to speak to himself, "As the old saying goes, your arms can't twist your thighs, how can a small bow and arrow workshop in Lingjiabao be compared with the Sword League, in fact, the same reason, if you don't compromise with the Sword League, Lingjiabao may not exist a long time ago!"

Then he waved his hand to stop Ling Xiao from speaking, "You listen to me first, the heart of the Sword Alliance, the ancestor and I both know it, but the hateful thing is that your third uncle Zhenxin and my son Ling Dong in the clan are ** by others, and they really want to form an alliance with the Sword Alliance!"

"Coupled with those deacons who have returned, now I, the patriarch, are already slight-hearted, and my heart is weak! Seeing the ambition of the wolf son of the Sword Alliance, but the juniors in the clan are all greedy for small profits in front of me, how can I not be sad! Fortunately, there is finally a sober junior like you, I am not alone!"

Ling Xiao, who finally understood the inside story of the matter, said hatefully, "Once the Sword Alliance's plan is successful, I'm afraid the first person to be eliminated will be my Lingjiabao people!"

Ling Zhenrui sighed, "Maybe these juniors haven't been walking outside for a long time, they don't know the sinister world, no one can see clearly!"

Then there was a sudden look on his face, "But, Ling Xiao, you remember, my Lingjiabao has been passed down for four hundred years, and has experienced countless ups and downs, although it is difficult this time, you can't lose your fighting spirit, if there is any case, you remember that your own safety is the most important, as long as you live, then my Lingjiabao will have a chance to rise again after all! I believe that the ancestor will also mean this!"

Listening to the meaning of the patriarch, Ling Xiao couldn't help but be solemn, it was indeed worthy of the Ling family's predecessors who grew up in blood and fire, this is to give up the rest of the clan, let them fend for themselves, and protect their own bloodline!

But the ancestor and the patriarch have this blood, but Ling Xiao is reluctant to give up this bloodline, not to mention anything else, think about the moon girl, can she tell her in the future, because her father is blind, she will give up?

No, absolutely not, the experience of Liang Guo and the affairs of Zhao Mansion made Ling Xiao understand the importance of blood and family affection to a person, if he is ruthless, no matter how high his cultivation is, he can no longer be called a person!

But in fact, there is no good way to deal with the evil of the current situation!

Seeing Ling Xiao's doubts, the patriarch began to enlighten Ling Xiao gently, "Ling Xiao, the weak eat the strong, there are some things that are beyond the reach of manpower, and now that the enemy is strong and I am weak, there is no way!"

"For today's plan, the Ling family will be split into two parts, and some of the people who are obsessed with ghosts will stay here! The others will return to the Ling Family Fort with you, but now the fort is not a safe place, and it is only right to move to another place. In addition, as the patriarch, I don't want to be alone, and I will stay here for the sake of the future!"

Hearing the patriarch say this, Ling Xiao was very excited, "Patriarch, you can't stay here anyway, the clan still needs you, in fact, I have already found a place to move, and I still need you to strategize!"

The patriarch has already made up his mind, "Ling Xiao, don't say it again, I have made up my mind, there is an ancestor in the clan sitting in the formation, there will be no problems! On the contrary, it's you, be careful, to say something unpleasant, I don't know what the Sword Alliance is trying to do with you, but as long as you live safely, then we, the de facto hostages, will be safe for a day." And once you die, we have only one way to die!"

Then the patriarch said the content of this transaction, "Xiao'er, the intention of the Sword Alliance is for you to personally infiltrate the Dreadnought Empire and find out what changes are within the empire, which will actually cause the Spear God family to attack the Sword Alliance!"

"And the reason why I have to go to you, the reason given by the Sword Alliance is that now that the Fearless Empire is closed to the country, masters above the Zun Realm are not allowed to enter! ”

"These are what the people of the Sword Alliance said, my uncle doesn't know what it means to be honored and attacked, but he can feel the hardships of this trip. Especially the Dreadnought Empire, for hundreds of years, outsiders have not been allowed to enter at all, and they don't know anything about its internal situation!"

"Even the merchants are just trading on the border, and they are not allowed to enter! This time, you are using the identity of a member of the Li Empire's birthday group, the identity of the Duke of the Kingdom, and you are going to congratulate His Majesty the Fearless Empire on his seventieth birthday! The Li Empire also asks for information from within the Fearless Empire!"

Hearing this news, Ling Xiao shook his head slightly, things will definitely not be so simple, if it is just for this information, whether it is the Sword Alliance or the Li Empire, there are extremely professional people to do it, and there is no need to go by yourself!

Maybe there are other insiders too!Suddenly, Hu Liu's sinister gaze appeared in Ling Xiao's thoughts. By the way, just by virtue of Hu Liu's identity as a master of the realm, maybe Hu Liu will know something, and Hu Liu is his own defeated general, find an opportunity to defeat him, and ask if he may know something!

However, the most important thing at the moment is the safety of the clansmen, and they can't take care of the rest for the time being, Ling Xiao and the patriarch Ling Zhenrui began to discuss who will leave first and who will stay!

The final result was that only Ling Zhenrui and Ling Dong's father and son were left at the core of the Ling family, and the rest of the personnel were all taken away, and those deacons who already had different intentions were also left, Ling Xiao wanted to see what happened to these people!

Having the Ling family patriarch's father and son stay behind to form an alliance and actually be hostages is enough to reassure the people of the Sword Alliance, but it also makes Ling Xiao unbearable! Make up your mind, it seems that the Dreadnought Empire must go, but Ling Zhenrui and his son must also be rescued!

The two of them have decided to make a decision, and they won't say anything more at the moment, but they are informing the relevant people who want to evacuate here to prepare separately.

And when everyone in Lingjiabao heard that only Ling Zhenrui's father and son were left to deal with affairs, Ling Dong's face was naturally very radiant, and he was complacent, thinking that he could participate in such a "big event", and naturally he had a bright future!

And many of the Ling family, including his uncle Ling Zhenxin, even showed a look of reluctance to leave, which made Ling Xiao speechless in his heart, and also saw the superb and vicious methods of the Sword Alliance!

On the second day, when the people of Lingjiabao left the Wuliuzhuang and marched towards Lingjiabao, except for Hu Liu, none of the people of the Sword Alliance were missing, and Hu Liu was only with the patriarch of Ling Zhenrui, without saying a word!

This situation made Ling Xiao a little puzzled, if he defeated Hu Liu, forcibly took the Ling family away, and then moved to the foot of the holy mountain as quickly as possible, would it be successful!

Such a simple way to save people was given up after Ling Xiao thought for a while, the people of the Sword Alliance must be fully prepared, if they startle the snake, it will not be good!

As long as you can successfully bring people back to Lingjiabao this time, it will be a victory, after all, only the patriarch father and son are left to rescue, it will be a lot easier!

The men rode horses, the women rode in cars, and set off from Wuliuzhuang, and it only took three days to return safely to Lingjiabao!

These days, Ling Xiao is busy, but Peaches has not watched from the sidelines, with the method of secret communication by the Sword Sect, he has already summoned thirteen Sword Sect masters, and has been guarding the safety of Lingjiabao!

When meeting with the ancestor, Peaches didn't care about face, and directly invited the holy mountain. And when the ancestor heard that Ling Xiao and Taozilang had a relationship, and the concubine had intentions, he had already made a lifelong decision in private, but he was relieved and laughed non-stop, until he ran away with Peaches smiling so red that he could not stop it! At this point, the relocation of Lingjiabao to the foot of the holy mountain was decided!
