"How could that be? Miss Ling 'er is as beautiful as a fairy. How could she not be worthy of me? It's just that … Miss Ling' er wants to kill me! "
Lu Ming began to complain.
"Wants to kill you?"
Blue Merchant was slightly taken aback. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, "This girl is really rebellious."
Then, Blue Merchant frowned and fell into deep thought.
Lu Ming secretly prayed that Blue Merchant would give up on the idea of marrying Lan Ling to him.
Although Lan Ling was an outstanding beauty and any man would be moved by her, Lu Ming knew that he didn't have the fortune to be with her bad temper.
After a while, Blue Merchant said, "How about this, I won't make things difficult for you. I'll let Ling 'er stay by your side for a thousand years and let you develop feelings for each other. If after a thousand years, you still don't want to marry each other, then this matter will be dropped!"
"This, this … isn't too good!"
Lu Ming's face immediately turned bitter.
Let Lan Ling, that crazy woman, stay by his side for a thousand years? What a joke. At the thought of this, Lu Ming felt a headache coming.
"What's not good about it? Feelings need to be developed. You're afraid that Ling 'er will make a move on you again. Don't worry, I'll warn her properly!"
"In addition, Ling 'er's talent is not bad. If you two are together, you can take care of each other and help Jingyu reverse the case. This matter is settled!"
Blue Merchant waved his hand and settled this matter.
"This, this …"
Lu Ming was completely speechless.
"Hahaha, that's it. Lu Ming, go out and wait for me. I'll call Ling 'er in and give her a good scolding!"
Lan Shang laughed out loud. He laughed like a sly old fox.
Lu Ming despised him in his heart. This Blue Merchant looked gentle on the surface, but in fact, he was scheming in his heart. He wanted to set him up with Lan Ling.
He believed that with Lan Ling's beauty, staying with Lu Ming every day, they would definitely develop feelings for each other.
"This old man must have taken a fancy to my talent. Sigh, there's nothing I can do about it. Who asked me to be so talented and handsome? There's really nothing I can do about it.
Lu Ming sighed inwardly.
If Blue Merchant knew what Lu Ming was thinking, he would probably spit out a mouthful of blood.
Lu Ming walked out of the courtyard and saw Lan Ling. He said to Lan Ling, "Your father is looking for you!"
"Hmph!"
Lan Ling coldly snorted and walked into the courtyard without looking at Lu Ming.
Lu Ming waited in the garden.
Not long after, he saw Blue Merchant and Lan Ling walking out together.
Lan Ling's eyes were red. When she saw Lu Ming, she glared hatefully at Lu Ming. She wished she could eat Lu Ming.
"Lu Ming, I'll tell Ling 'er to inform you about the matter of the evidence after I find it. Now, I'll let Ling' er send you back. Ling 'er, send Lu Ming off!"
Blue Merchant instructed.
Lan Ling gritted her teeth and walked unwillingly to Lu Ming's side. She said coldly, "Let's go!"
Lu Ming smiled bitterly. It seemed that Lan Ling was really reprimanded by Blue Merchant. It seemed that her resentment towards him was even heavier.
"Uncle Lan Shu, goodbye!"
Lu Ming cupped his fists. Then, he stepped into the air and flew towards his own courtyard.
Lan Ling walked side by side with Lu Ming with a cold face. After a while, they were far away from Blue Merchant's residence.
"Lu Ming, what did you say to my father?"
Suddenly, Lan Ling spoke. Her voice was cold as she glared at Lu Ming.
"No, I didn't say anything!"
Lu Ming said. Of course, he had to deny it.
"You didn't say anything? Then why would my father reprimand me? You're a man, but you actually snitched in front of my father. You're really shameless! "
Lan Ling said hatefully.
“？？？”
Lu Ming was speechless. He felt wronged in his heart. It was the other party who wanted to kill him as soon as they met. Couldn't he say anything?
"Hmph! Lecher, you already have a woman by your side. You still want me to follow you. Shameless, despicable … "
Lan Ling continued to scold.
Lu Ming almost coughed up blood.
What did she mean by him wanting Lan Ling to follow him? It was clearly Blue Merchant who forced her to follow him, okay?
"Don't talk nonsense. It was your father who forced you to follow me for a thousand years. I originally refused …"
Lu Ming quickly denied.
"You mean to say that no one wants me and it was my father who forced me to follow you? Am I trying to climb up your social ladder?"
Lan Ling's face turned colder.
Lu Ming almost coughed up blood. How could this woman's imagination be so wild? He didn't mean that.
"It's fine if you want to follow me for a thousand years, but it depends on whether you have the ability or not. If you can survive three of my moves, I'll follow you for a thousand years!"
Suddenly, Lan Ling's voice turned cold. A cold murderous intent shrouded Lu Ming.
Lu Ming frowned. He felt that Lan Ling really wanted to kill him.
She wanted to use this reason to kill him.
However, that was then and this was now.
Lu Ming's current strength was many times stronger than when he first met Lan Ling.
"Come on, let me have a taste of your moves!"
Lu Ming's gaze turned cold.
He had already given way many times, but Lan Ling was still pressing on. Lu Ming was also angry.
Clang!
The long sword was unsheathed and the sword's cry was earth-shattering.
"First move!"
Lan Ling's voice had just sounded when a terrifying sword light slashed towards Lu Ming. Its power was extremely shocking.
This move could even kill a Half-step Divine King who hadn't awakened his divine origin power.
Lan Ling attacked without mercy.
Boom!
Lu Ming's body also erupted with a powerful aura. A long spear appeared in his hand and he swung it out.
Clang!
The long spear collided with the sword light, erupting with a violent rumble. Terrifying force qi spread out in all directions like a storm.
When the force qi dissipated, Lu Ming and Lan Ling's bodies stood in the void motionlessly.
"Turns out that he already awakened his divine origin power!"
Lan Ling's gaze sharpened, revealing a look of surprise.
She did not expect that Lu Ming only had Sixth Level Celestial Deity cultivation and he already awakened his divine origin power.
Wait a minute, Sixth Level Celestial Deity!
Lan Ling thought of something and secretly revealed a look of surprise.
She remembered very clearly that back then at Starmoon Ancient City, Lu Ming's cultivation was only Fourth Level Celestial Deity.
Just how long had it been? Lu Ming actually broke through two rounds in a row and reached Sixth Level Celestial Deity. This speed was also too fast.
"He must have had a fortuitous encounter in Starmoon Ancient City. Otherwise, it's absolutely impossible to be so fast by relying on his own cultivation!"
Lan Ling's heart skipped a beat.
She did not guess wrong about this. Lu Ming did have a fortuitous encounter. Otherwise, it was absolutely impossible for his cultivation to rise so quickly.
"One move!"
Lu Ming said indifferently.
Originally, he could have purposely lost to the other party. Then, Lan Ling would not have to follow by his side.
However, Lu Ming also had his pride. He wanted to teach Lan Ling a lesson now. Naturally, he would not give in.
"Humph, don't think that you can stop me just because you've awakened your divine origin power!"
Lan Ling snorted coldly. The aura on her body became even stronger. Her strength was pushed to the extreme by her.
Buzz!
A sword shadow that was tens of thousands of meters long continuously shook the void. Then, it slashed down violently at Lu Ming with terrifying might.
