Ling Tian held his first meeting since coming to this world. The participants were all of Ling Tian's current strength: the 36 Blood Iron Warriors, Ling Jian, and Ling Chen. The location was the largest room in the courtyard where Ling Tian lived. It was late at night. As for the contents of this meeting, Ling Tian did not allow any of it to be leaked.
For the time being, Ling Tian felt that having this strength was more or less enough. If he wanted to expand his strength, it was not impossible, but it would definitely attract the attention of those with ulterior motives, and the losses would outweigh the gains.
In Ling Tian's eyes, these people would become the core members of his group, which was the leadership. It was necessary for Ling Tian to understand the background of every single person, as well as everything about them.
Ling Xiao's beating did not have any effect on Ling Tian. But Ling Tian still rested on his bed for two days, because his mother, Chu Ting 'er, accompanied him for two days with tears in her eyes. After Ling Xiao sent people to call his wife several times without success, he finally personally came to pick her up. This was the first time Ling Tian witnessed his mother's valiance. She was as angry as a lioness protecting her cub. Looking at her posture, it was as if she wanted to tear Ling Xiao into pieces.
After Old Lady Ling heard about this matter, she called Ling Xiao in front of her and also scolded him. As for Ling Xiao wanting to call back the Blood Iron Warriors, he only opened his mouth and said the beginning, but was ruthlessly refuted by Old Lady Ling, and directly killed in the womb. This also led to a very convenient result for Ling Tian: Grand Marshal Ling Xiao felt that he did not have the face to face his 36 brothers, and from then on Ling Tian's courtyard kept a respectful distance from him, and listed him as a guest who refused to come in contact with him.
Looking at the 38 people in front of him, Ling Tian's face was cold, and his expression was unprecedentedly serious. Everyone could not help but become nervous, and their faces were all solemn.
"Today is the 11th day of the 12th month of the 3169 year of the Heavenly Star Continent, and also the 11th day of the 45th year of the Sky Bearing Calendar. Everyone, I ask that you remember this day forever. From today onwards, all of us here will truly become one big family, one big group. From the moment I say this, all of you will truly become my, Ling Tian's, people! "
Everyone's breathing became heavy.
"From today onwards, we will improve our strength step by step, strengthen our influence, and raise our strength. However, all of this will be done in secret. Because the opponents we will be facing will be facing all the strong powers in the world.. "
"In another three months, the Ling Family Courtyard will be completed. At that time, your true path to becoming strong will begin from there! I am only five years old now, and although it looks like there is still plenty of time, in reality, there are undercurrents in the various countries, and war will break out at any time. Once war breaks out, it will definitely engulf the entire continent. Thus, after I bring all of you under my wing, you will have to rely on yourselves for everything! If you want to live on and enjoy glory and wealth with me in the future, then do your best to raise your strength, and don't let yourself die in battle! "
Everyone's breathing became heavy, and their eyes were as round as bells, with sweat dripping from their foreheads. At this point, if they still could not understand Ling Tian's meaning, then they would be pure idiots. Ling Tian had already revealed his greatest ambition, and he was only short of saying that he wanted to become the Emperor. Ever since everyone came to the Ling House, they had realized that Ling Tian had been hiding something, but they could not understand why he had to be so careful with such a tyrannical Ling family behind him. Now, everyone understood that the ambition hidden in the heart of this little child was actually so huge and shocking!
To be able to hide like this, his ambition was definitely huge!
A trace of arrogance appeared on Ling Tian's face, and he said in a low voice, "My name is Ling Tian, and I want to suppress Ling Tian! Gentlemen, who wants to accompany me, to suppress Ling Tian?! "
All 38 of them knelt down at the same time, "We are willing to assist young noble, to suppress Ling Tian!"
Ling Tian chuckled, and waved his hands, saying, "This is just a small wish, there is no need for all of you to be so serious about it. Just keep it in your heart. If this news were to spread out, saying that a profligate young noble like me has such ambitions, the world would definitely laugh their teeth out. "
Everyone relaxed, and laughed along with him. The matter of Ling Tian 'teasing' a maid had already spread throughout the entire capital! To know how to tease a maid at the age of five! Ling Tian had already been labeled as a 'super profligate young noble', and the limelight of Ling Tian in the capital was unparalleled. He had already become the biggest joke in Sky Bearing.
After the serious topic ended, Ling Tian began to ask a question that had always been in his heart, "All of you are from the military, but have you heard of anyone in this world who has the strength to leap onto roofs and vault over walls, and crush rocks into powder with their bare hands?"
This question had already existed in Ling Tian's heart for a long time. All along, Ling Tian had been trying to find out about this among the people he had interacted with, but not a single one of them was able to answer him. In fact, there were even a few people who said that there was no such thing! This gave Ling Tian a misconception, that martial arts did not exist in this world. As for magic, it was even more impossible. This completely subverted Ling Tian's understanding of time travel.
It was only when Ling Tian saw Xiao FengHan's palm strike out in anger that he actually smashed a tea table into smithereens did Ling Tian realize that in this world, martial arts and internal energy still existed. However, for some reason, there were very few people who had such strength. Furthermore, they would not reveal it so easily.
The mysterious expert behind Xiao FengHan had also aroused Ling Tian's suspicions. That person was obviously an expert in both internal and external martial arts, and was also adept at concealing his tracks. What Ling Tian found strange was that such a person obviously existed, but why did no one know about it? Furthermore, in this world, just how many of such people were there? How were the martial arts in this world categorized? Just how strong were the true martial arts experts in this world? Where would these people usually hide?
Countless questions filled Ling Tian's heart. Now, Ling Tian had already figured out that the existence of such a person was a secret! There would definitely be a small circle of people who knew about this. As for the grassroots Ling family, they obviously did not know about this secret, nor did they have the qualifications to get close to this circle!
The Ling family was originally just a wealthy family, until Lin Zhan followed the founding emperor to conquer the world. They gradually worked their way up from nothing to their current glory. They seemed to be incomparably glorious, but their foundation was very shallow! Some of the deep-rooted aristocratic families that had lasted for dozens of generations still did not put the Ling family in their eyes. This was because no matter how powerful the Ling family was, compared to those deep-rooted aristocratic families, they still lacked a foundation that could be passed down from generation to generation! Everyone said that three generations were the most important! As for the Ling family, up until now, Ling Tian had only just stepped into the third generation.
Everyone looked at each other, completely at a loss. It was obvious that apart from Ling Tian's frightening strength, they had never seen anything like it before.
Ling Tian sighed softly. It seemed like he would have to rely on himself to discover this matter bit by bit. Ling Tian's heart was filled with pride. He firmly believed that as long as such a person existed, there would definitely be clues. As his strength grew, these people would appear in front of him sooner or later.
Besides, Ling Tian faintly felt that the other aristocratic families had been passed down from generation to generation. The longest was close to a thousand years old. These families would definitely come into contact with such a level! In fact, these families themselves were such existences. At the very least, there should be such a person in the family. Especially the number one family in the Heavenly Star Continent, Tamago, which had been passed down for a thousand years. If there was no such person, Ling Tian would not believe it even if he beheaded him! If there was no special reason, which family could pass down a thousand years? How could an ordinary family withstand a thousand years of wind and frost, a thousand years of change in dynasties?
