"Master, if you have something important, just ask, and the disciple will do it for you. ”

Hearing that Tang Ling had something to say, Li Changhe, the eldest among the apprentices, hurriedly opened his mouth to promise, but Tang Ling, on the other hand, was not as anxious as them, and just said lightly: "I have agreed with Yun'er that after I get married, I will continue to travel the mountains and rivers, and I will not stay in Luoyang again. ”

After hearing this, Li Changhe smiled: "Master, you don't have to worry about this little thing, although the recruitment of members in the blood sea is strict, if you just let Xiao Jing stay in the palace to practice, a few of us will still be able to make a decision after all." What's more, Xiao Jingtian's capital is good, I believe that in a few years, it will become a big weapon, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the sea of blood will still hope that he can join and defend the country together. ”

"That's very good, but there's one more thing ......," Tang Ling said here, glancing at the "sky" and "earth" on the side.

"Earth" still didn't say a word, as if he didn't feel Tang Ling's gaze, and "Tian" smiled: "This is your own business, we won't say much." ”

When everyone saw Tang Ling and the two sages behaving strangely, they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, but they couldn't ask questions, so they had to stand in place and wait for Tang Ling to speak again.

Tang Ling didn't say much, just glanced at Li Changhe: "Changhe, after I and Yun'er leave, you will take over the title of King of Wind and Cloud, how about it?"

Except for Xiao Jing, who is not deeply involved in the world, this sentence has a more effect on everyone than a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Li Changhe, who is the person concerned, suddenly turned pale, and hurriedly refused: "Master, this kind of practice is absolutely unacceptable." ”

The word "Fengyun King", although it does not have any real power, is not just a title for the Tang Dynasty. Since Taizong gave the title and Xuanzong established the palace for him, these three words are equivalent to the domination of the entire Luoyang, and over the years, more than half of the tax benefits in Luoyang City have been owned by him. The wealth hanging in the name of the Fengyun King, after a rough calculation, can definitely support the Tang Dynasty's military expenditure for several years. Tang Ling now wants to transfer this title to Li Changhe, that is, to transfer all the wealth under the name of the Fengyun King to him, but Li Changhe never dares to respond.

Even so, Tang Ling didn't seem to know much about Li Changhe's reaction, and asked in surprise, "Is this inappropriate?"

"Master, whether it was in the past, present, or future, the King of Wind and Cloud will always be the only one, please forgive Changhe for not agreeing. Compared with the previous days of being respectful and responsive, Li Changhe was uncharacteristically and directly rejected Tang Ling's proposal mercilessly.

Tang Ling smiled bitterly: "You know, what kind of reputation and wealth is meaningless to me, it is better to leave it to you, and it can be of some use." ”

"Senior Brother Changhe is already in a transcendent position in the sea of blood, if he takes over the title of King Fengyun again, I am afraid that it will arouse unnecessary suspicion in the imperial court, and then the sea of blood will only become controlled everywhere and be in a passive situation, not to mention that this title is the evidence that Emperor Taizong and Master knew each other back then, and I hope Master will think twice. Mo Lengyan and the others also opened their mouths to persuade.

The name of the King of Wind and Cloud, although he can earn a lot of advantages for the sea of blood now, but the premise must be that Tang Ling has this title, not only Li Changhe, as long as any of his apprentices inherit this title, it will inevitably attract hostility from many parties, and it will be a disaster if it is attacked by various forces at that time.

"So, because of your own position, you are not willing to take over the position of the Fengyun King?" Although all the apprentices strongly objected, Tang Ling still did not have a displeased look on his face, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, as if this development was as he wished.

Everyone was silent, answering Tang Ling's question in silence.

Tang Ling was still not annoyed, Xiao Jing pointed out: "Then if I let Xiao Jing succeed to the throne of the King of Wind and Cloud, there should be no problem, right?"

Everyone was dumbfounded, although they still wanted to open their mouths to refute, but they couldn't say anything, it was indeed as Mo Lengyan said, Xiao Jing was not a person in the sea of blood, and at the same time he was Tang Ling's descendant disciple. When it comes to martial arts, although he is not the top among everyone, he is the most suitable candidate.

After a long time, Li Changhe said intermittently: "If Master, you insist on this...... The long river must be assisted by power. ”

"That's good. Tang Ling looked at Xiao Jing, who still couldn't figure out the situation, "Xiao Jing, I want to give you the title of Fengyun King and all the wealth and power under his name, are you willing?"

This sentence, Tang Ling did not have a deliberative tone like Fang Cai, but with a burst of majesty in his words, although Li Changhe and the others had long been accustomed to seeing the wind and waves, but after hearing this sentence, they couldn't help but shudder.

The coercion of the Creation Sage, even if it is only a little leakage, is still issued by the Creation Sage after all, how can ordinary mortals resist? But in the face of this momentum that can make Li Changhe and the others tremble, Xiao Jing seems to have no feeling, and the young man only responds a little timidly: "Master, I'm afraid that I can't do it. ”

"If you feel that you are not up to the task, then you can continue to practice until you are competent, after all, there is no rush in this matter. Tang Ling's words were unabated, "I only ask you, are you willing?"

"If this is the master's test for the disciple, the disciple will take it. ”

Xiao Jing spoke again, this time he was a little more resolute, although he did not explicitly agree, but he did not show the slightest resistance.

"Good!"

Xiao Jing's response like this seemed to be what Tang Ling was looking forward to, only to take a long breath, and his thin face already showed a look of approval, and then he looked at the two sages of "heaven" and "earth", and the same was true. Obviously, there is a certain potential that Xiao Jing has shown just now, which makes them satisfied.

Looking back at Li Changhe, Tang Ling's face had already softened, and he only said one word to him: "Changhe, you should understand what I mean by this." ”

Li Changhe's face was cloudy, and he only reluctantly said two words: "Understood." ”

After coming out of Duan Huanshan's residence that day, the conversation between their master and apprentice was recalled in Li Changhe's heart again.

"It's good to understand, and what to do then is up to you, the senior brother, to decide. In addition, choose a date to hold an apprenticeship ceremony for yourselves, so that those who dare to covet the King of Wind and Clouds and the Sea of Blood know that there are some things that they are not qualified to fantasize. ”

Tang Ling was still calm, and there were no waves on his face, but after the "sky" and "earth" behind him glanced at each other, he shook his head helplessly.

The "spirit" guy is becoming more and more obscure like a mortal.
