On the way back from the cemetery to the Ling Family's ancestral home, the Ling Family's hearts gradually became heavy after the excitement of trampling on the Sun and Chen Families passed.
Ten days later, the Ling Family and the Chen Family would have a life-and-death battle!
Everyone in the Ling Family knew that the Chen Family wouldn't be easy to overcome!
Even Ling Yun was thinking the same thing at this moment.
This battle was too important. It concerned the life and death of the entire Ling Family. The rise of the Ling Family depended on this battle!
If they won this battle, the Ling Family would definitely rise. If they lost, the entire family would be wiped out!
There were only ten days left for the Ling Family. Ten days later, their life and death would be decided. At such a crucial moment, who wouldn't have a heavy heart?
On the Ling Family's bus, Ling Lie pulled Ling Yun to his side. The two of them sat side by side and communicated via telepathy.
"Yun Er, the Ling Family is rising day by day, while the Chen Family is on the decline. Chen Jingxuan wants a life-and-death battle with us. Why did you let Grandpa agree?"
"If we fight like this, our family will be at a disadvantage."
Ling Lie wasn't complaining about Ling Yun. As the head of the family, he had to consider the entire Ling Family. That was why he had to analyze the situation with Ling Yun.
Of course, Ling Lie knew that his precious grandson was someone who would never allow himself to be taken advantage of. He also knew that Ling Yun would be able to guess his concerns. Therefore, he couldn't understand why Ling Yun would choose to accept Chen Jingxuan's challenge.
Ling Yun patiently explained to Ling Lie, "Grandpa, I know that the Ling Family will be at a disadvantage if we fight like this. However, I also know that if we don't fight like this, the Ling Family will be at a greater disadvantage! "
Ling Yun had said this a long time ago. Ling Lie couldn't understand this point. He hurriedly asked, "Oh? What do you mean? "
Ling Yun already knew that Ling Lie was a straightforward person. He didn't have a dark corner in his heart and wasn't good at scheming against others. That was why he couldn't figure it out.
So he smiled and said, "Grandpa, think about it. How did the Chen family end up like this?"
Ling Lie was stunned, and he stuttered, "… Because they provoked you!"
"That's right, it was because of me."
Ling Yun smiled. "Chen Jingxuan, Chen Jingtian, and his son are the only ones left in the Chen Family. That's because in the past few months, I've divided and devoured them. I've basically wiped out the mainstays of their family and the main forces that they relied on." Ling Yun smiled.
"Counting carefully, starting from Shennongjia's Chen Jianren, then Chen Haizhen, Chen Jianwei, Chen Jianjie, Chen Jianhao, Chen Haishan, more than a hundred ancient martial arts masters invited by their families, nearly a thousand Blood Clan bats, and dozens of Japanese ninjas … they were all killed by me.
Ling Lie sucked in a breath of cold air. "The Chen Family actually sent so many people to kill you?"
Ling Yun, on the other hand, was calm and collected. "At that time, I wasn't as strong as I am today. It can be said that the Chen Family underestimated me when they dealt with me."
"If Chen Jingxuan had chosen to attack me personally, I probably wouldn't have been able to escape, let alone fight him."
Ling Yun couldn't help but smile as he said this. "I think Chen Jingxuan must be very regretful recently because the people that the Chen Family sent to deal with me became the stepping stones for my rise."
"But today, after Chen Jingxuan saw me, and through his two probing attacks, he has realized that I am no longer a lamb that he can slaughter at will. Instead, I am qualified to fight him."
Ling Yun had fought with Chen Jingxuan before. Naturally, he could tell that Chen Jingxuan had the intention to kill the Ling Family today. If Ling Yun couldn't withstand that Heaven Slaying Heart Destroying Claw, none of the Ling Family members would be able to leave alive.
Chen Jingxuan used his full strength against Ling Yun. He didn't hold back, but he didn't gain any advantage. That was why he chose to fight to the death with the Ling Family.
Ling Yun continued to explain, "Chen Jingxuan suddenly realized that our Ling Family's overall strength had increased explosively, while his family was already at the end of their road. Just now, in front of everyone, he didn't kill anyone from the Ling Family because of his status."
"However, if we didn't agree to him just now, Chen Jingxuan would definitely attack personally after he left. He would assassinate the Ling Family members one by one!"
"Grandpa, with Chen Jingxuan's strength, how many people in the Ling Family would be able to escape his clutches?"
"Even if I used all my strength, how many people in the Ling Family could I protect?"
Ling Lie was dumbfounded. At the same time, he finally understood and murmured, "So that's how it is … Yun Er, now that you put it that way, it really is like that."
Wasn't that the case? Other than Chen Jingxuan, the rest of the Chen Family were lambs for Ling Yun to trample on.
On the other hand, other than Ling Yun, which member of the Ling Family wasn't lambs for Chen Jingxuan to slaughter?
Chen Jingxuan could kill everyone in the Ling Family first and then challenge Ling Yun to a duel. That would be a huge loss for the Ling Family!
Ling Lie immediately understood the crux of the matter after Ling Yun pointed it out.
He blushed and said shamefully, "Cough! Grandpa thought that Chen Jingxuan wouldn't do such a thing because he has been in the Heavenly Team for so many years … "
Ling Lie would never do such a thing. That was why he didn't think of it.
Ling Yun chuckled. "Grandpa, you're too righteous. Of course, you would think that way."
Ling Yun flattered Ling Lie before continuing, "Chen Jingxuan wouldn't do such a thing under normal circumstances. However, this is a matter of life and death for his family. Now that he knows my true identity, he will naturally put the score between me and the Chen Family on the heads of the Ling Family!
"Tell me, how is it possible for him to allow our Ling Family to continue developing and grow so that we can destroy the entire Chen Family?"
Ling Yun's analysis was meticulous and flawless.
Furthermore, that was the truth. Needless to say, if Ling Yun couldn't block Chen Jingxuan's all-out attack today, Chen Jingxuan would start a massacre in a fit of rage.
As for the Huaxia Ancient Martial Arts Practitioners not fighting on the streets, it was nothing to the people of the Heavenly Team. They did not care about it at all.
"Yes, you're right. Grandpa understands, that's indeed the case."
Ling Lie finally understood. From the looks of it, agreeing to Chen Jingxuan's request for a duel to the death was indeed the best choice for the Ling Family.
"Yun Er, what do you plan to do for the next ten days?" he asked immediately.
Ling Yun smiled calmly. "Of course I'll go all out and prepare for battle. Grandpa, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. The Ling Family won't lose. "
Accepting the Chen Family's request for a duel to the death was a helpless choice. However, Ling Yun wouldn't have agreed to it if he wasn't confident.
Ling Lie felt much more at ease after hearing Ling Yun's words. He knew that Chen Jingxuan was strong, but he trusted Ling Yun more. Ling Yun would never do something he wasn't confident in.
"Alright! We'll go all out then! Grandpa will listen to your arrangements for the next ten days. As long as the Ling Family wins, I'll do whatever you want me to do! "
Ling Lie no longer had any doubts. He heaved a sigh of relief when the day of the duel arrived.
Ling Yun smiled confidently and nodded without saying anything else.
At this point, he wasn't thinking about whether they could win or not. Instead, he was thinking about how to win beautifully and how to minimize the casualties on his side!
Also, after the Ling Family defeated the Chen Family, if the other enemies of the Ling Family seized the opportunity to attack and destroy the Ling Family in one fell swoop, what kind of arrangements would they have to make?
These were the problems that Ling Yun had to consider and solve.
These problems could be summarized into three things: defend well, increase their strength, and have a way out.
The traffic in Beijing was at its peak at five or six in the afternoon. It was the time when the roads were the most congested. Therefore, the Ling Family took an hour and a half to return to the Ling Family's ancestral home.
After dinner, Ling Yun didn't participate in the Ling Family's discussion about the duel to the death. Instead, he returned to his room.
After returning to his room, Ling Yun sat on the sofa alone and began to think quietly. This took more than an hour.
After considering everything thoroughly, Ling Yun smiled and went to look for Mo Wudao.
Mo Wudao couldn't help but grumble when he saw Ling Yun. "What took you so long? You almost got in the way again. Let's go."
Even though the fourteenth of July was the time of year with the heaviest Yin Qi, the fifteenth of July was the Hungry Ghost Festival. The heaviest Yin Qi at night wasn't that far off.
Therefore, at around nine-thirty, the two of them left the Ling Family in the black van. Just like the night before, they continued to cultivate the Divine Ghost Willow.
With last night's experience, the two of them could be said to be familiar with the route tonight. Other than Beijing's Third Ring Road and Yanjing University, they went everywhere else.
By one o 'clock in the morning, the Divine Ghost Willow had grown to two and a half meters tall. Its trunk was thicker, and its crown was thicker. Its leaves were more luxuriant, and its roots were thicker.
Seeing that the Divine Ghost Willow was almost done, Ling Yun wanted to go back and cultivate in his spatial ring. However, Mo Wudao said that it was still early and suggested that they go to a few more places.
After all, this only happened once a year. Ling Yun had no choice but to agree. The two of them drove out of the Sixth Ring Road and began to wander around, allowing the Divine Ghost Willow to absorb Yin Qi.
This round of cultivation only ended at four in the morning.
Even though the Divine Ghost Willow absorbed a lot of Yin Qi, there weren't any changes. Obviously, the Divine Ghost Willow was "full" in the short term.
"Alright, it's about time. Let's go back and cultivate!"
"I still have a lot of things to do in the next ten days!"
