Before Ling Gaofeng could finish his words, Ling Nan slapped him back. Looking at the smiling Yun Fan, Ling Gaofeng had a bitter expression.
What was this?
Why was he looking down on him? He could not wait to hide!
"Father, I can't beat him!" Ling Gaofeng gritted his teeth.
"Can't beat him? Brat, I know you want to help Xinyue. But if you don't do it, you're hurting her. Do you understand? Hurry up, stop wasting time. "
Ling Nan reached out and dragged Ling Gaofeng out.
Hmph, you're full of tricks, and you're still pretending in front of me. You brat, don't you know you have no chance?
"Come on, since the general has no confidence in me, then let's try!"
Seeing Yun Fan stand up, Ling Gaofeng knew he could not refuse. He stepped forward and clasped his hands at Yun Fan, causing Ling Nan to glare at him.
In his eyes, this brat had never been so polite. Just as he was surprised, the latter's words almost scared him off his chair.
"You can fight, but we have an agreement. You can't draw your sword!"
Blood must be shed when the sword is drawn. Ling Gaofeng remembered this.
What a joke, wasn't it just to show his father his strength? Was it worth risking his life? Although Yun Fan did not dare to kill him, he could still make a few cuts.
Seeing Yun Fan nod, Ling Gaofeng did not wait for Ling Nan to speak and punched out.
Yun Fan's feet did not move, he also swung his fist to meet the attack.
The two fists collided, and before his divine dragon energy could surge out, Ling Gaofeng retreated. He retreated seven to eight steps and only stopped when he knocked into the chair behind him.
"I lost!"
Yun Fan was stunned, then thought of something and smiled. "Thanks for letting me win!"
Ling Xinyue covered her mouth and snickered, causing Ling Nan to be confused.
But since he had already said it, he could not go back on his word. He said in a low voice, "Xinyue, in that case, you two should rest first. We'll discuss the details of the siege during dinner."
He got up and glared at Ling Gaofeng, then walked into the room. He pulled Ling Gaofeng to the side and glared at him.
"Brat, have you gone crazy today? I'm warning you, no matter how much you like Xin Yue, don't cause trouble for me.
That Yang Tianzong is backed by the Sun Sect. Even the royal family of the Tianwu Kingdom can't afford to offend him, let alone your father. If you want to do me a favor, look at the time! "
Although Ling Nan doted on Ling Gao Feng, there were some things that he was not muddle-headed about.
Especially when it concerned Ling Gaofeng's life, he would never compromise. On this point, Ling Gaofeng was still quite afraid of him.
"Father, you're thinking too much. Do you really think I gave in to him for Xinyue? "
"Nonsense, your old man's eyes aren't blurry at all. That kid didn't use any force at all. You were the one who hit the chair yourself."
Ling Gaofeng nodded and said bitterly, "Yes, it was me. But if I didn't do it myself, the outcome would be even worse! You don't know a lot of news at the border. You haven't heard of Yun Fan, but you should have heard of Ma Chenglong and Diao Zhaixing, right?
I look down on them, but you know what? Those two fellas died in his hands. In the mystic realm, if Xinyue wasn't there, even I would have lost my life.
That kid is a killer. Don't be fooled by his harmless, smiling face. If he didn't make a move, he would at least be heavily injured.
Do you know why I didn't let him draw his sword? If I let him draw his sword, it will taste blood. If I let him draw his sword, that would be asking for my own life! "
Speaking of Yun Fan, Ling Gaofeng talked non-stop, like the surging waters of the Yangtze River.
On one hand, he was fearful of the other party's strength and viciousness. On the other hand, he was complaining to Ling Nan.
Ling Nan stared at Ling Gaofeng in front of him, making him wonder if the person in front of him was his son.
Not only did he not have the disdain and arrogance from before, but all he showed was shock and helplessness.
"Is that kid really that strong?"
"Not only that, I'm talking about his strength when he was in the Taixu mystic realm. You know that Tianwu Pagoda closed, right? But do you know what he did there?
Not only did he push Ling Batian's name down, but he also entered the ninth floor. The ninth floor, ever since Tianwu Pagoda opened, no one has ever entered the ninth floor!
Not only that, I heard that when he cultivated on the ninth floor, he actually depleted all the Spiritual Qi in there. In the end, he came out and challenged more than two hundred elite disciples of Heaven End Sect and Earth End Sect alone.
Even Sun Mingxu and Han Tianling couldn't hurt him. Instead, he killed more than ten disciples of the two sects. I think only someone in the Transcending Mortality Tier could do that. "
The bloody scene was still fresh in his mind, and he couldn't get rid of it. A flash of sword light was almost equivalent to a human life.
Ling Gaofeng had seen many ruthless people, but he was the first one like Yun Fan, who looked harmless and killed like a god of death with his sword.
"Pushing Ling Batian aside and entering the ninth floor, he killed more than ten people under the joint attack of two ninth tier Element Gathering Tier martial artists and more than two hundred elite disciples?
Brat, are you trying to fool me? Are you still an inner disciple? Not to mention the Cloud Sect, even an inner disciple of the Sun Sect wouldn't be able to do that. "
Ling Nan couldn't believe it. Any one of these things was like a fantasy, not to mention that it had happened to one person.
And this person was an inner disciple of a declining third-rate sect, a brat who hadn't even reached the Element Gathering Tier.
"You're my biological father, why would I lie to you about this? Moreover, the news would arrive in less than two days. What's the point of lying to you?
I'm your son, you know my personality. To be honest, I've never been convinced by anyone since I was young, not even Ling Batian. But he's different, I can't not be convinced! "
It was the first time Ling Nan saw such a serious expression on Ling Gaofeng's face. He couldn't help but feel shocked.
"Alright, then I'll see for myself tomorrow. Go and arrange dinner, I'll see his military ability first. "
The sky gradually darkened. A large round table was set up in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion. Wine and dishes were prepared on the table, and waves of fragrance filled the main hall.
Beside the round table, Ling Nan, Ling Gaofeng, Ling Xinyue, and Yun Fan took their seats. They toasted each other and spoke pleasantries.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Ling Nan suddenly said seriously, "Little Brother, since I've agreed to help you attack the city, I won't refuse. However, if you want to obtain the title of Champion, I can only help from the side.
I'm sure you already know the situation around us, so I'd like to hear your thoughts. War isn't child's play. Every order concerns the life and death of many of our brothers, so we have to be cautious! "
"Since General says so, then I'll be straightforward. This is my first time fighting a war, and any of the brothers General can find are stronger than me.
Saying this in front of the General is like showing off in front of an expert, but since I've promised Xinyue, I'm not afraid of the General making fun of me.
This is what I think, now that the two armies are in a stalemate, and the ancient castle city is strong, easy to defend and hard to attack. It's not very practical to attack the city from the front.
