Seeing that Ling Jin and the other two were looking at him, Lu Xuan didn't dare to refuse anymore. If he continued to be hostile to them, he might really become enemies with the Ling Clan. This wasn't the result Lu Xuan wanted. After all, he still needed the Ling Clan's resources to recover his strength.
Cold sweat broke out on Lu Xuan's back. Thoughts raced in his head. Looking at Ling Jin's face, Lu Xuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration. That's it!
Lu Xuan smiled lightly, "Since I came to rescue you at this time, there is naturally a reason. Because … not long ago, your Ling Clan finally gave birth to a Demon Emperor! "
Hearing this, Ling Jin's face flashed with astonishment. Then, she exclaimed with joy, "Senior Xia, is this true?"
"Of course it's true! It was because your Demon Emperor tried his best to make this happen that I came to the lower realm. " Lu Xuan said with certainty. In fact, the moment he saw Ling Jin's reaction, he also heaved a sigh of relief. This was because he was betting on the fact that the Ling Clan didn't have a Demon Emperor in the past. Otherwise, his lie would've been exposed immediately. The truth proved that his bet was correct!
"This is great!" Ling Jin clenched her fists in excitement. She showed a rare expression of a little girl, "Second Uncle, Third Uncle, our Ling Clan's status in the Heaven Region will definitely rise greatly. With the Demon Emperor's protection, we will definitely become one of the top clans in the Demon Race!"
"Yes, I really didn't think that our Ling Clan would have a Demon Emperor." Third Uncle Ling Yu was also very excited. This feeling was like when a person achieved the Dao, his chickens and dogs ascended to the heavens. Especially since this Demon Emperor still remembered them from the lower realm. When they returned to the Heaven Region, he would definitely take care of them.
"That's right, Lord Messenger, what is the title of our Demon Emperor?" Ling Yu couldn't help but ask again.
Eh, there's a title? How troublesome … Lu Xuan cursed in his heart and came up with a random title. "The new Demon Emperor's name is Ling Tian, so I shall call myself Demon Emperor Ling Tian."
"En, Demon Emperor Ling Tian, standing above the Heaven Region. This title of Lord Demon Emperor is truly domineering." Ling Yu chuckled.
Ling Jin, who was at the side, thought for a moment before saying, "Third Uncle, if I remember correctly, the name Ling Tian was recorded in our Ling Family's genealogy?"
"Is that so? Let me think … there seems to be such a person, ah! I remember now! Ling Tian, isn't Ling Tian the name of our ancestor's father? " Ling Yu cried out in shock. The ancestor he was referring to was the person who led the Demon Sealing Continent's Ling Family down to the lower realms. In order to let his descendants remember their bloodline, he had specially recorded down the Ling Family's genealogy. Ling Tian was the father of this ancestor.
Looking at Ling Jin and Ling Yu's heated discussion, Lu Xuan felt that it was a bit ridiculous. It couldn't be such a coincidence, could it? A random name he made up actually matched up? However, it didn't matter. They didn't have the chance to verify it anyway. Who knew if Ling Tian was dead or had really become a Demon Emperor? The possibility of the former was 99%.
However, this made Ling Jin and the others even more certain of Lu Xuan's words. Since the person who became a Demon Emperor was their ancestor, it was no wonder that he would send someone to save them. Demon Emperor Ling Tian must have been thinking about his son's bloodline. After all, the Heavenly Demon Clan's ability to reproduce was extremely low. Every bloodline was extremely important.
At this moment, Lu Xuan also sold Ling Jin a favor and said with a smile, "I didn't expect Commander Ling to be a direct descendant of the Demon Emperor. I've been disrespectful."
Now that Ling Jin was happy, she didn't care about Lu Xuan's previous disrespectful behavior. Of course, she didn't need to be as polite to Lu Xuan as before. After all, once they returned to the Heaven Region, they would definitely soar into the sky and their statuses would take a qualitative leap.
She immediately waved her hand and said, "It's fine, it's fine. We are already very grateful that Senior Xia was willing to take such a huge risk to come down and rescue us. When we return to the Heaven Region, I will definitely ask the ancestor for Senior Xia's merit."
Lu Xuan snickered inwardly when he heard that. He thought, "You really think you're fat? You're putting on airs now. However, since Ling Jin and the others were already immersed in the lie, Lu Xuan was also happy to do so and naturally wouldn't expose them.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lu Xuan bluntly said, "I believe that Commander Ling and the others also want to return to the Heaven Region as soon as possible, so we won't delay any longer. I'll have to trouble Commander Ling to prepare sufficient cultivation resources for me so that I can recover my strength as soon as possible."
"That's good. Senior Xia, you just need to focus on cultivating and leave the rest to me." Ling Jin guaranteed and immediately shouted, "Little Rou, bring Senior Xia to my cultivation location and also assign a group of maidservants to serve Senior Xia. They must be at your beck and call and satisfy all of Senior Xia's requests."
"Yes, this servant obeys." The charming Succubus Clan's young lady, Ling Rou, slowly walked in and stopped in front of Lu Xuan. She smiled at him and said, "Senior Xia, please."
Lu Xuan grunted softly and left with Ling Rou, completely turning a blind eye to her appearance and temperament that could charm all living things. Now, he just wanted to recover his strength as soon as possible. He felt that his bragging was getting bigger and bigger, so he had to recover his strength before his bragging was exposed and find a chance to return to the Heavenly Sword Continent. Otherwise … He believed that once Ling Jin found out that he was a liar, she would definitely tear him apart alive.
Under Ling Rou's lead, Lu Xuan followed her through the many turns in the huge castle. It took them quite some time before they arrived at a secret room.
Ling Rou stopped and pointed at the secret room. She explained to Lu Xuan, "This is the place where Commander usually secludes and cultivates. There are three Demon Gathering Arrays inside. If you cultivate here, I believe that Senior Xia will be able to recover his strength very quickly."
Demon Gathering Array? It should be similar to the Demon Gathering Array used by the human race. Could it be able to convert the astral energy into demonic energy? Lu Xuan thought to himself. However, he didn't know if he could absorb demonic energy or not.
"In a while, I will send a group of servants to stand guard at the entrance. They will listen to Senior Xia's every command. If you have any needs, you can tell them, or have them tell me. They will do their best to satisfy you."
Hearing Ling Rou's words, a strange expression appeared on Lu Xuan's face. Why did he feel that Ling Rou's words had a hidden meaning? What did she mean by doing her best to satisfy his needs?
Turning his head to look at Ling Rou and seeing the charm between her brows, Lu Xuan couldn't help but tease, "Then, can you satisfy my needs as well?"
Hearing those words, Ling Rou's face was immediately dyed red, adding a bit of charm to it. She said in a low voice, "Senior Xia, please don't joke around. I am the Commander's personal servant. Unless the Commander gives me permission, I cannot get close to others."
"Oh … In other words, as long as Commander Ling agrees to bestow you to me, you can satisfy all my needs?"
"..." Ling Rou was speechless and her face became even redder. She believed that with Ling Jin's respect towards Lu Xuan, as long as Lu Xuan asked, Ling Jin might really give her to Lu Xuan. That sort of thing was very common in the Demon race. The Succubus race originally didn't have much status, and although the Heavenly Demon race wouldn't choose to give birth to descendants with impure bloodlines, some normal needs still had to be taken care of.
To some Succubus females, if they could obtain the love of a Heavenly Demon race member with extraordinary status, it would be quite a good ending. Of course, Ling Rou didn't have such worries. She was Ling Jin's personal servant, so her status wasn't low. However, if Ling Jin chose to send her away, she had no power to resist.
Seeing Ling Rou's reaction, Lu Xuan laughed and no longer teased her. He pushed open the door and entered, walking into Ling Jin's private cultivation room. Truthfully speaking, he really didn't have many romantic thoughts in his heart. His life was more important!
"In a while, if Commander Ling brings the cultivation resources over, just leave them at the door. I will come and take them myself. If there's nothing important, don't disturb my cultivation." In the instant before the door closed, Lu Xuan's voice rang out.
Not expecting Lu Xuan to let her go so easily, Ling Rou lightly sighed in relief. She didn't know whether to feel happy or disappointed. After standing for a while, she turned around and went to arrange for servants to serve Lu Xuan.
