At a secluded side door of the Ling Family's ancestral home.
Swoosh!
Two figures suddenly appeared in the dim passageway. They stood side by side, wearing the same pitch-black short-sleeved clothes. Their breaths were long but indiscernible, like two ghosts that appeared out of thin air.
The one on the left was tall and burly with a domineering aura. He was Ling Yi. The one on the right was slightly skinnier, with a sword-like posture and cold eyes. He was Ling Qi.
Both of them were at the pinnacle of Xiantian Realm Level Six.
Ling One and Ling Qi smiled at each other after they landed. They then walked towards the door as if nothing had happened.
"Big Brother, Seventh Brother, why are you two here?"
"A mission?"
Ling Eight and Ling Jiu, who were on duty at the other end of the passageway, were excited when they saw the two captains suddenly appearing.
Ling One glared at them. "Mission, mission. Beijing is as peaceful as a pool of stagnant water now. Why are there so many missions?"
"Change of guard. Boss and I will be on duty for the first half of the night. The two of you can go to the backyard to practice."
Ling Qi said seriously as he waved his hand at the two of them, indicating that they could go in.
"Change of guard?"
Ling Eight and Ling Jiu were stunned. They couldn't help but look at each other in confusion. How could there be such a good thing? Aside from training them, when did the two of them ever take the initiative to guard the door for them?
Subconsciously, the two of them didn't move. Ling Eight suddenly smiled at the two of them. "Big Brother, Seventh Brother, what good thing is it? Don't hide it from us, just tell us directly."
"All of you, get lost!"
Ling One was impatient and chased the two of them away. From the looks of it, he was just short of throwing the two of them in.
"…"
Ling Eight and Ling Jiu immediately lost their temper. The two of them looked at each other again and shook their heads helplessly. They mumbled something in dissatisfaction before slowly leaving the place.
"Hehe."
After making sure that the two of them were far away, Ling One and Ling Seven secretly looked at each other as if their plan had succeeded.
The two of them leaned against the door frame out of habit and started chatting.
Ling One glanced at him. "Seventh Brother, are you sure that our master will rush back today?"
"Definitely, tonight!"
Ling Qi's body leaned loosely against the door frame, but he nodded his head confidently. His eyes were burning with passion as he said, "Tomorrow is our third master's birthday. Even if there is something big happening outside, the family head will definitely rush back."
"Yes."
Ling Yi agreed with this reason, but he immediately frowned and asked, "But what if our Family Head doesn't walk here, what if …"
He raised his hand and pointed above his head. "If they flew down from the sky or walked through the gate, wouldn't we not be able to welcome them here?"
"Hey!"
Ling Qi was overjoyed and said proudly, "Let me calculate a little more …"
As he spoke, he actually stretched out his right hand and closed his eyes. His lips moved as he began to calculate with his fingers.
After a while, Ling Qi suddenly opened his eyes and nodded seriously, "According to my calculations, our Family Head will definitely use this door to return home tonight."
Ling Yi was angered to the point of wanting to rush over and give him a good beating. He angrily said, "Speak human language."
Ling Qi smiled apologetically, "Don't be anxious, listen to my analysis."
"Big Brother, why do you think our Family Head came back?"
"Nonsense, of course it's because Third Master's birthday is tomorrow."
"So when he comes back, he will definitely go to see our Third Master first, right? Then, the two of them will return home together, right? "
"Yes!"
"According to my observation, our Third Master has been going home from this side door these few days, so …"
At this point, Ling Seven stopped and gave Ling One a look that said 'you know what I mean'.
"Reliable!"
Ling Yi was elated and nodded his head. "Why else would I say that out of the hundred of us brothers, you were the most cunning? Not bad, not bad!"
"Big Brother is the best."
Ling Qi immediately complimented him.
The two brothers started to flatter each other as if there was no one else around.
Thousands of meters above the Ling Family's ancestral residence, Ling Yun and Ling Xiao couldn't help but look at each other and smile.
They had just rushed back from the Martial Arts Academy, but Ling Yun didn't land directly. Instead, he looked down at the entire Ling Family's ancestral residence to see if there were any spies from other families hiding around the ancestral residence. In the end, he didn't find any spies and instead saw this exciting scene.
"Interesting."
Ling Yun smiled and nodded his head.
"Just like Luo Yucheng, Lu Wenlong, and the rest, Ling Yi and Ling Qi were indeed the most outstanding among the one hundred and eight men of sacrifice twenty years ago."
Ling Xiao's eyes were filled with praise as he said slowly, "It's a pity that our Ling Family was too weak at that time and didn't have many resources to train them. That's why they were stuck at the Houtian Realm and couldn't advance any further."
Pearls covered in dust!
"Yun Er, it's because of you that they broke through to the Xiantian Realm and finally shone with the brilliance they deserve!"
Ling Xiao looked at Ling Yun seriously and said, "Yun Er, these thirty-six men of sacrifice have all fought for our Ling Family and made great contributions. Every one of them is willing to sacrifice their lives for our Ling Family."
"Now that you're the head of the family, their gratitude and worship towards you is even greater than your seventy-two disciples!"
Ling Yun's blood boiled as he listened. He nodded his head solemnly. "Father, I understand. I've always understood."
Ling Xiao smiled. "Then how do we go down?"
Ling Yun chuckled. "We can't let them struggle for nothing."
"Whoosh!"
Before he finished his sentence, Ling Yun had already descended from the sky. He maintained his invisible state and suddenly appeared at the side door!
"Who's there?"
Ling One and Ling Seven shouted at the same time!
In that instant, Ling One and Ling Seven's pupils constricted and their expressions changed. Their nerves tensed up and they immediately entered a defensive stance. One of them had the aura of a tiger while the other was as alert as a wolf!
Ling Yun was extremely satisfied with their sharp senses and quick reactions.
"It's me!"
Ling Yun opened his mouth and exited his invisible state at the same time. Beside him was Ling Xiao, who had followed closely behind him.
"Ah!"
Ling One and Ling Seven were stunned at the same time. Following that, they were ecstatic as they knelt on the ground!
"Ling One and Ling Seven greet the head of the family!"
Because the two of them were too excited and surprised, they actually forgot about Ling Xiao who was beside Ling Yun.
"Get up!"
Ling Yun calmly enjoyed the bow of the two of them and lifted Ling One and Ling Seven up from the ground.
After Ling Qi stood up, he didn't forget to give Ling Yi a smug look even though he was busy. What he meant was that he was right, right?
However, at this moment, how could Ling One still have the time to care about him? He was so excited that he couldn't tell which way was north or south!
"Head of the family, y-you're really back? You're really back! "
"Yes, I'm back."
Ling Yun was touched as he smiled and patted Ling One's shoulder.
"Hehe, hehe …"
This made Ling Yi so happy that he only knew how to chuckle and not say anything else.
This made Ling Seven, who was at the side, full of envy and resentment. He thought to himself, Why did the head only pat him and not me?
"You're not bad!"
Ling Yun's gaze looked over at the right time and praised him.
Ling Seven was instantly overjoyed.
"There's no need to guard this door tonight. Follow me in."
After saying a few words to the two of them, Ling Yun took the lead and stepped into the Ling Family's ancestral home.
They were finally home.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …
In a split second, the entire Ling Family was filled with people using Qinggong. The sound of people flying through the air could be heard everywhere. All the figures that flew out were rushing towards the same direction.
"Yun Er!"
"Young Master is back!"
"Head of the family is back!"
"Big Brother is back!"
"That brat really came back!"
Because of the sudden return of the Ling Family, the huge Ling Family's ancestral home was in a mess!
Today, everyone in the Ling Family was present. Not a single core member was missing. Even Ling Yong and Cui Lao were present. There were also more than twenty men of sacrifice!
With so many people flying into the air from all directions, the scene was like flying fish leaping out of the sea at the same time.
This also reflected the prosperity of the Ling Family!
"Caw caw, caw caw …"
Apart from the sound of a human figure breaking through the air, there was also a large bird with a black body, golden beak, golden eyes, and a golden line on its back. It flapped its wings and took off from a tree in the backyard. Its wingspan was more than a meter, and it was unusually spirited. It flew towards the front yard.
This was naturally Ling Yun's Golden Striped Crow, Big Gold.
"Woof woof, woof woof …"
There were also two big black dogs that rushed out from the backyard.
Although Ling Yun had expected this scene, he was still helpless. He had just walked out of the corridor when he was blocked by a large group of people.
"Yun Er greets Grandpa."
However, no matter how many people there were, the first person Ling Yun greeted was still his grandfather, Ling Lie.
"Good, good, good!"
Ling Lie nodded repeatedly and laughed heartily. At the same time, he took a big step forward and held onto Ling Yun's shoulders. He looked left and right, and the joy and love in his eyes was indescribable.
"Two days ago, Cui Lao told me that you might rush back for your father's birthday. At that time, I wasn't sure and wanted your uncle to ask you, but I was worried that it would affect your work outside, so I held back. Who knew that you would really come back today?"
Ling Lie was so happy to see Ling Yun that he didn't give others a chance to speak.
"Hehe, it's my father's birthday. Of course I have to come back."
Ling Yun's line of sight was blocked by Ling Lie's burly figure. He couldn't see the people behind him, so he couldn't greet them.
Fortunately, the rest of the Ling Family didn't rush to greet Ling Yun. They gave the grandfather and grandson enough time to exchange pleasantries.
"Oh, Yun Er, come and meet Cui Lao. He predicted that you would come back and has been waiting for you at home for a few days."
After some pleasantries, Ling Lie remembered the others and hurriedly moved to the side.
Ling Yun finally saw the Ling Family.
Cui Lao, Ling Yong, Ling Feng, Ling Li, Ling Xiu, Ling Xue …
Ling Yun greeted them one by one. Finally, his second uncle, Ling Yue, walked out from the depths of the courtyard with a smile.
Only Cao Shanshan was missing.
