DongFang JingLei's eyes lit up, "I understand." Giving a pill to DongFang HuaHu, he stood up and said with a smile that didn't seem like a smile, "That lady outside causing trouble is also one of your people, right? She won't be in danger, right? "
Ling Tian smiled lightly, "Second Master DongFang is indeed perceptive! She might be in danger, but the one in danger wouldn't be her! "
DongFang JingLei was taken aback as he laughed bitterly. Slowly walking to the entrance of the tent, he opened a small gap and shouted, "That lady is an esteemed guest of mine. Quickly invite her in, no one is to be rude!"
Turning around, he saw that Ling Tian had already returned to his original seat and was taking out a jug of wine from under the table with great familiarity. His eyes narrowed, "Aren't you afraid that I'll take the chance to escape and trap you here?"
"Haha …" Ling Tian smacked open the seal and glanced at DongFang HuaHu on the ground. Then, he turned back to DongFang JingLei, "Firstly, you wouldn't dare! Secondly, you wouldn't dare! Brother JingLei is an intelligent person, you wouldn't be so unwise! "
"That's right, I wouldn't dare, and I wouldn't dare!" DongFang JingLei admitted without hesitation. Seeing DongFang HuaHu fall to the ground without any warning, DongFang JingLei didn't even dare to think about escaping. Even if he wanted to make a move, he would have to think twice before making a move so as not to cause any misunderstandings with Ling Tian. That nameless impulse from before was because of his brother who had gone through life and death with him. What he didn't know was that it was his nameless impulse that gave him unlimited hope!
"Since that's the case, what am I afraid of? Afraid that you'll find someone to kill me?! If you really find someone to kill me, the only one who will suffer will be yourself! " Ling Tian raised the wine cup and took a sip. Smacking his lips, he placed it by the side and said lazily, "This wine is too ordinary, isn't there anything better?!" DongFang JingLei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was the imperial wine of the Eastern Zhao Imperial Palace!
At this moment, the He ChuLai and He ChuQu brothers had already turned into two identical 'frost men'. Beside them, there were a dozen or so people covered in white frost. They stretched out their arms, kicked their legs, gritted their teeth, and remained motionless. En, it was obvious that they had all been frozen by Li Xue's frost aura!
Li Xue was standing by the side with her arms crossed and a smile on her face. The hundred or so burly men around her had long faces, but none of them dared to step forward. Since they didn't step forward, Li Xue naturally didn't move either. Her mission was to stall for time, to delay them as much as possible. She would just let them surround her. Seeing that more and more people had gathered, the little lass was elated. En, en, all of you, come and take a look. With all of you here, Tian Ge's side would be even less eye-catching.
Hearing DongFang JingLei's command, all the guards heaved a sigh of relief and opened up a path that led to DongFang JingLei's tent.
Hurry up and take this lass away! This lass knows some demonic arts, right? The two uncles, He ChuLai and He ChuQu, were defeated in a single round by her. Furthermore, their bodies were frozen, but they didn't die. Their eyeballs kept darting around, but their bodies were still covered in frost!
What kind of weird martial arts was this? Could it be that this lass had a body of ice, the incarnation of a Snow Demon? Why did she turn into a 'frosty man' upon contact?! Wasn't this too horrifying?!
If Ling Tian was here, he would naturally be able to tell that these people only had their acupoints sealed by Li Xue. Although they seemed to be frozen, their lives weren't in danger. It was just that Li Xue's actions were too secretive and she had used the Divine Ice Formula to cover them. Those who didn't know would naturally think that they were frozen stiff …
As for He ChuLai and He ChuQu, their strength naturally couldn't be compared to Li Xue. But even if they joined forces, they wouldn't have been defeated so easily. It was because Li Xue's actions were too strange. Furthermore, the Divine Ice Formula was a mystical technique that had never been seen in the Heavenly Star Continent in the past thousand years. Otherwise, with the combined might of the two brothers, they wouldn't have been defeated in a single round!
Seeing that Li Xue had entered the tent, the group of people hurriedly separated. Not long later, they carried a pile of dried branches and placed them beside He ChuLai and the others. Following that, thick smoke rose … En, to expel the cold.
Right now, it was the hottest day of summer! The layer of frost on their bodies melted very quickly. The heat that followed caused He ChuLai and He ChuQu to complain incessantly. But with their acupoints sealed, they couldn't even scream. The only thing they could see was sweat pouring down their faces like rain …
Seeing that the few of them were still unable to move, could it be that they were so severely frozen? Everyone felt uneasy in their hearts. A few warm-hearted people even braved the danger of being roasted by the fire and went closer to the He ChuLai and He ChuLai …
Not long after, the fragrant smell of roasted meat wafted out …
As for the instigator, Young Miss Li Xue, she was already seated in DongFang JingLei's tent as though nothing had happened. She was completely oblivious to everything that was happening outside.
The moment Miss Li entered the tent, she obediently stood behind Ling Tian and even helped him massage his shoulders. It was as though she did not see the other two people in the tent, one standing and one lying down.
DongFang JingLei didn't say anything, but Ling Tian was also speechless. This lass really took advantage of him after stepping on his nose. Was she treating him like a maid now? If he really had such a maid, wouldn't his heart be twisted to death? If Ling Chen were to see him like this, how was he going to explain himself?!
"Prince Ling's luck with women, haha … JingLei is truly envious." DongFang JingLei broke the silence with a single sentence.
"Brother JingLei, since things have already come to this, let's not beat around the bush." Ling Tian twisted his neck awkwardly. "Since the DongFang Family has already fallen to such a state, I would like to know, what plans does Brother JingLei have for the future?"
DongFang JingLei smiled meaningfully, with a hint of self-pity in his smile. "I'm afraid it's not a question of what I want to do, right? It's Prince Ling, what do you want me to do? "
"Brother JingLei's words are too serious. I dare say that if Brother JingLei does not cooperate with me and allows the DongFang Family to continue on like this, within a year, the DongFang Family will follow the Northern Wei and become the second power to be destroyed! What does Brother JingLei think? " Ling Tian's eyes flashed with a dark flame as killing intent pulsated from him. His fingers tapped lightly on the table, emitting a crisp sound.
Ling Tian's meaning was clear. If DongFang JingLei did not do as he wished, even if he let him off today, he would immediately take action against the DongFang Family.
With the strength that Ling Tian had displayed so far, this wasn't an exaggeration! He had absolute strength!
"That might make sense." DongFang JingLei said solemnly.
"With Brother JingLei's talent, you naturally wouldn't want to see your family decline step by step. Naturally, you would want to change the current situation. However, if you want to change the current situation, you would have to become the head of the DongFang Family. Only then would you be able to fulfill your ambitions! However, with your current strength, it is impossible for you to replace brother JingLei as the head of the family! Even if you succeed, the DongFang Family would suffer great losses and become the weakest of the aristocratic families! "
"Thus, only by working with me can you minimize your losses and even increase your strength. I can make you the head of the Dongfang Family and fulfill your ambitions. You can strengthen the Dongfang Family for a thousand years and never fall from grace!" Ling Tian tried his best to speak slowly and deeply, allowing every single word to sink into DongFang JingLei's heart.
"If your goal is only to integrate the Dongfang family and ensure that the Dongfang family can survive and reproduce better, then I can assure you that your goal can definitely be achieved. Moreover, it can be achieved in a very ideal way that will even exceed your imagination. However, your brother DongFang JingTian's ambitions are too great. In this world where there are experts stronger than you, the ambitions of your DongFang Family will only lead you into the abyss of destruction. This is something that I am clear of and you are clear of as well. "
DongFang JingLei remained silent, not uttering a single word. It could be seen that his mind was in a whirlwind of thoughts, worrying about his gains and losses.
"I can tell that you are a person with a strong sense of family values. You should also be clear that if your DongFang Family does not rely on external forces, regardless of who is the one in power in the end, your family will definitely not have much strength left after the internal strife. How can your DongFang Family compare to the Yu Family? Can the current you compare to the Shui Family? Can the current you compare to the Xiao family? Not to mention the future! You also saw today that the Xiao family has the support of another hidden sect, Above Heavens. What about the rest of you? What do you have? In fact, at that point, the strength of your family will not even be able to compare to the strength of me, Ling Tian! "Ling Tian said mercilessly.
"Since ancient times, there has never been a single fluke in the struggle for hegemony. If you are only thinking of slowly growing your strength, then you will definitely be the first to perish! I can tell you very clearly that in this world, there is no lack of anything except idiots! It is just that … do you think that Yu ManLou or Xiao FengHan are fools? Or do you think that I, Ling Tian, am a retard? That I will allow you to grow after your strength is greatly reduced? "
While DongFang JingLei's posture remained the same, in Li Xue's eyes, he seemed to have become a little crooked. He coughed violently and said with difficulty, "Perhaps what you said is true. However, what qualifications do you, Ling Tian, have to talk about cooperation with me? Right now, you're being hunted down by the Martial Order Medallion owner. Furthermore, I've personally witnessed the strength of the Martial Order Medallion owner. I truly find it hard to believe that someone could escape from his hands. Since young master's life is already in danger, what's the point of cooperating with him? "
This was the first time that DongFang JingLei had rebutted Ling Tian. However, his words were filled with sharpness! It was as though he was a swordsman who had suddenly brandished his sword and faced his enemy head-on!
He had to admit that DongFang JingLei's words made sense. Ling Tian could not deny the strength of Justice!
"The safety of the Ling family will ultimately depend on you. If you are unable to escape from the pursuit of the Martial Order Medallion owner, not to mention cooperating with me, even your Ling family will change hands! Regardless of whether Tamago or the Xiao family succeeds in the end, the Ling family will still fall! In fact, you will fall even earlier than my DongFang family! "DongFang JingLei said sharply.
