Back to the Peak

Chapter 09 Choice

Ling Feng knew that his eldest brother was a martial arts fanatic, and he had always been extremely obsessed with martial arts. Once he saw powerful exercises, he couldn't put it down. Now seeing his obsessed face, he couldn't help but nodded and said: "Okay, wait After dealing with the family matters, I will teach you in a while!"

"Okay!" Ling Luo rubbed his fists excitedly, thinking, "Since those exercises can make Brother Feng a congenital master, the power must be very powerful. If I learn it, my strength will definitely increase greatly, and I may be able to follow Feng. Brother is as good as him!"

Seeing Ling Luo dancing happily, the corners of Ling Feng's mouth turned up slightly, and he smiled gratifiedly. 26nbsp;

The Ling family lobby is the place where the Ling family handles family affairs and receives distinguished guests. It is extremely spacious and can accommodate hundreds of people.

Ling Xiao, Ling Luo, and Ling Feng and his son had just walked into the lobby of the Ling family when a family servant came over, and after seeing Ling Xiao, he quickly bowed and said, "Patriarch, the Lord Qingye just came over and said he wanted to see you. thing."

"Well, didn't he also get seriously injured last night, what are you doing here now?" Ling Xiao frowned slightly, somewhat unable to guess Qing Ye's purpose here.

"Okay, I got it, you go down." Nodding slightly, he retreated from the servant, Ling Xiao saw Qingye sitting on the chair at a glance, couldn't help suppressing the doubts in his heart, stepped forward quickly, and said with a loud smile : "City Master Qing, last night the Ling family underwent a big change, which almost caused you trouble, I'm really sorry!"

Hearing Ling Xiao's voice, Aoba turned his head and looked over, stood upright, stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Patriarch Ling is too polite, it should be the old man who thanked your son for saving his life last night! If it wasn't for him to turn the tide in the end Otherwise, I’m afraid the old man would have died a long time ago!” She bowed to Ling Xiao and thanked him, seeing Ling Feng behind him, Qing Ye’s eyes lit up.

"You are welcome, Lord Qing, please sit down!" Ling Xiao smiled and asked Qingye to sit down, and told the maidservant beside him, "Hurry up and serve tea to Lord Qing!"

"Yes!" Bowing slightly, the maid stepped back, and after a while, four cups of fragrant hot tea were brought up.

"When I went back last night, I mobilized the troops in the city overnight to encircle and suppress the daring and reckless villains of the Wang family, but unexpectedly, alas..." Qingye paused at this point, sighed, with regret on his face.

Seeing Qingye's sad expression, Ling Xiao glanced sideways at Ling Luo and then at Ling Feng. The father and son smiled at each other knowingly, and then said lightly, "But I didn't expect it to be empty. Have you run away long ago?"

"How did Patriarch Ling know that the other party ran away early? Could it be that you have already guessed it?" Qingye asked in surprise.

"The other party sent so many strong men to attack us, it must have been planned for a long time, and it is reasonable to transfer the tribe in advance." After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he slowly sipped the refreshing tea in the cup, followed by A thick fragrance is introduced into the nose, and I feel refreshed.

"The Ling family has suffered such a change, Ling Xiao is not in a mess, and he looks so calm, he is worthy of being the head of the clan, with a city in his chest!" Seeing Ling Xiao's expression, Qingye gave a secret praise in his heart, He laughed and said, "It turned out that Patriarch Ling had expected that the other party had escaped! No wonder all of you were so calm and didn't seek revenge from the Wang family! But having said that, it's such a pity that we couldn't catch these bastards!"

"I, Ling Xiao, ask myself that I'm not a modest gentleman. Our Ling family will remember the blood feud last night, and one day they will make their Wang family pay back several times!" Putting down the teacup in his hand, Ling Xiao said lightly, but the faint murderous intent in his words Hearing this, Aoba felt a chill in her heart.

A tiger with sharp claws will make people awe-inspiring, but a tiger that not only has sharp claws, but also knows how to hide its power and bide its time will make people frightened and even more fearful!

And Ling Xiao in front of him is a dangerous "smiling tiger"!

"The three of them, father and son, are not simple! Fortunately, I am friends with them rather than enemies, otherwise it would be quite a headache." A pair of muddy, shrewd eyes passed from the three of Ling Xiao and his son without a trace. After sweeping, Aoba secretly rejoiced in her heart.

"Patriarch Ling, the old man has taken the liberty to come here because he actually has a very good thing to tell you!" Aoba showed a smile all over her face, revealing her purpose of coming here.

"Oh, what a great thing? Please also ask Qingcheng Lord to express that Ling is willing to listen!" Ling Xiao raised his brows and said with great interest.

"It's like this. Just now I sent someone to hurry up and report the events of last night to my Emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty in detail. Your Ling family saved several important officials of the imperial court. This is a great achievement. In addition, your Ling family has always treated the My Eastern Jin Dynasty has made a lot of contributions. The most important point is that your Ling family has a young innate strongman, and the royal family will definitely recruit it! You just wait for the promotion of officials and nobles. If you are lucky, you may be able to become a marquis. General!" Qingye said with a smile on his face.

"Master Qingcheng speaks seriously. Our Ling family is also well-known in Pingyang City, but if we look at the entire Eastern Jin Dynasty, we are nothing. How can we get the favor of the royal family!" Ling Xiao said.

"To be honest, it was really difficult for your Ling family to get into the eyes of the royal family before, but after a bloody battle last night, the situation is very different!" Qing Ye, with a gray beard, set her eyes on the girl who was sitting next to Ling Xiao. On Ling Feng, he said frankly, "In the Lingwu Continent, strength is the most respected. I am not talented. I am just an acquired nine-level martial artist, and I can become the lord of Pingyang City. But your Ling family is out of A talented young man who has become an innate strong man at a young age has a limitless future, and such a strong man is exactly what the Eastern Jin royal family wants to recruit!"

"Furthermore, Duan Yi, the Great General of Zhenxi who was rescued by Mr. Ling Feng last night, is the most beloved nephew of the Emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Your son is powerful and has made such great achievements. It is hard not to be rewarded!"

At first Ling Xiao thought that Qingye's words were just empty words of compliment, and it was even more impossible for the Eastern Jin royal family to fancy a small family like his own, so he didn't care about his words, and didn't take them to heart.

But now listening to Aoba's narration, the words are clear and logical, even if Ling Xiao tried his best to suppress it, it is difficult to hide the excitement in his heart, and Ling Luo's eyes are also shining, and his face is full of excitement.

In the same way as a mother regards her son as the most important thing, if Ling Feng can be valued by the royal family and be promoted, then the status of the Ling family will skyrocket, much higher than it is now!

After all, although the current Ling family can be regarded as one of the best big families in Pingyang City, but in terms of real strength, it is only at the end of the second-rate family. Join the ranks of the first-class family!

Being able to make the family strong and become a first-class family is the result Ling Xiao hopes to see most as the head of the family!It is also the goal of generations of family struggle!

And the goal that everyone has been striving for for so many years is about to become a reality because of Ling Feng's battle last night!

The sudden joy had to make Ling Xiao very excited, and the eyes he looked at Ling Feng were even more gratified.

But unlike Ling Xiao and Ling Luo's joy, Ling Feng was expressionless and silent at the moment, unable to tell whether he was happy or worried.

"Your Ling family will wait for Ling Feng to be rewarded, and then you can be promoted together! Well, I have already brought the words, and I will leave!" Seeing Ling Xiao's unconcealable excitement, Aoba laughed, Standing up, he bowed his hands and said goodbye.

"Your Excellency, City Master, I am really thankful!" Ling Xiao also got up quickly, with a smile on his face, and said to Ling Luo and Ling Feng at the same time, "You and I will send City Master Qing out together."

Ling Luo and Ling Feng followed closely behind Ling Xiao, and walked out with Qing Ye.A group of people walked out with laughter and laughter, exchanging greetings along the way.

Walking to the gate of Ling's house, Qingye paused, suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at Ling Xiao, and said in surprise: "The old man remembered that Patriarch Ling was seriously injured last night, and today he walked like a dragon and a tiger, and he was fine. Could it be that there is some miraculous 'medicine' in the clan?"

"Haha, let's not hide the truth from City Lord Qing, it was the little boy who helped me heal my injuries, and I was able to recover so quickly." Ling Xiao was in a good mood, pointing to Ling Feng behind him, and laughed loudly.

"Oh?" She glanced at Ling Feng in shock, Qingye's eyes turned slightly, a gleam of light disappeared, and she turned her head to praise Ling Xiao, "Sure enough, a hero is born as a boy, congratulations to Chief Ling for giving birth to a good son! , is really enviable!"

"The city lord has won the prize!" Ling Xiao cupped his hands.

Seeing Qingye get into the sedan chair and go away, Ling Xiao turned his head and gave Ling Feng a solemn look, and asked, "What do you think of the royal family's recruitment of you?"

Hearing this, Ling Feng frowned and fell into deep thought.In fact, he had long guessed that his sudden outburst last night would definitely attract the attention of various powerful forces, but he did not expect this "attention" to come so quickly!

If he accepts the royal family's reward, then he will definitely pull the Ling family into a deeper and more difficult pool, and all kinds of dangers will follow, and his relatives will be in more danger. It was the result Ling Feng didn't want to see.

But if he refused, he would disrespect the royal family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and despise the imperial power. At that time, the emperor's anger would definitely bring disaster to the entire Ling family, which was also the result Ling Feng didn't want to see.

There are two roads, no matter which one to take, it is full of challenges for Ling Feng!

But now Ling Feng's best choice is: accept the reward!

At least for now, he doesn't have enough strength to dare to shout at the royal family!

And if I cower in Pingyang City, can I guarantee the safety of my relatives?

In the last life, the tragic destruction of the Ling family is a good example. Without enough strength, they may face crisis no matter where they are, and they can only let others control their own destiny!

Only the strong can control their own destiny!

And if you want to make yourself stronger, the best way is to face more crises, and then eliminate them one by one, step by step to the peak of the strong!

"Although you will face more powerful people after entering the imperial city, which is more dangerous than Pingyang City, but for the Ling family and me, this is also an opportunity for growth, which is a good thing, isn't it?" Ling Feng's eyes flashed A firm light, with a smile on his face, asked Ling Xiao back.

Hearing Ling Feng's answer, Ling Xiao nodded in satisfaction, patted him on the shoulder, and said with pride, "That's right! He is a good boy from my Ling family, so he should stand up and face challenges without fear!"
