The boundless crowd that surrounded the Golden Winged Family finally retreated under Jin Ling's might. Jin Ling's turbid eyes swept across the surroundings before he turned around and leisurely returned to the Golden Winged Family.
Jin Zhen followed and the two of them walked side by side!
However, when Jin Ling turned around, a look of exhaustion flashed across his face!
To be honest, today's situation was actually him forcefully holding on!
Because he was already old and his muscles had deteriorated considerably. His strength was no longer at its peak. All that was left was his previous reputation that made everyone fearful!
If a fight were to break out, the result would probably be very bad!
Every generation, there would be a new talent. A new generation would replace the old. This was an eternal principle!
Among the many Divine Origin Realm existences in the Eastern Region, Jin Ling was clear that he had already left the top ten in terms of strength. It was just that no one knew about it!
Not to mention that above the Divine Origin Realm, there was still the Half-step Noble Realm. Many people in the Eastern Region didn't know who the Half-step Noble Realm people were and which forces they belonged to!
The reason why he was able to do this today was to repay Xiao Fan for saving the Golden Winged Little Roc King's life!
The grace of a drop of water should be repaid with a gushing spring. This was the principle that the Golden Winged Family had always adhered to!
Jin Ling's body landed. He looked at Xiao Fan and wanted to say something. However, Xiao Fan gave him a faint smile and seemed to have understood something. Jin Ling's body instantly froze as his eyes were filled with shock and disbelief!
Previously, when he arrived at the Evergreen Sacred Grounds, Xiao Fan had no relationship with the Evergreen Sacred Grounds. Therefore, he had directly informed Evergreen Yuanfeng of his identity.
However, the Golden Winged Family was different. Therefore, Xiao Fan treated it as an old friend. Only when he saw Jin Ling did he inform Jin Ling of his identity. The difference between them was obvious!
"Let's go. Let's find a place to drink!" Xiao Fan walked towards Jin Ling and said with a smile, "Then, we can chat while drinking!"
"Jin Ling pays his respects!" However, Jin Ling did not dare to be arrogant. He immediately agreed and went to drink with Xiao Fan at the same table. Instead, he hurriedly kowtowed and was about to kowtow to Xiao Fan!
However, he was stopped by Xiao Fan!
"There's no need to be so polite." Xiao Fan shook his head and smiled. "You weren't like this in the past!"
"When you're young, everyone has a bigger temper and more courage. But as you grow older, you slowly become defensive and fearful!" Jin Ling suppressed his excitement and said with a smile on his face.
"People change. This is normal. There's nothing wrong with it!" Xiao Fan said with a smile.
Then, together with Jin Ling, they walked towards the depths of the Golden Winged Family to find a place to drink and chat!
At the back, Magic Sword and the rest tactfully retreated. Now that Xiao Fan was meeting with his old friend, it naturally belonged to the two of them. There was no need for the others to be a third wheel.
Jin Zhen, the Little Roc King's mother, and the Little Roc King also stopped in their tracks. Then, they looked at the departing figures of Xiao Fan and Jin Ling in astonishment. Their expressions froze in disbelief!
Today, they had welcomed Xiao Fan so grandly purely because of Xiao Fan's saving grace to their son, the Little Roc King. They never expected that their father, Jin Ling, would actually do such a thing!
Jin Ling's actions just now had shown that he was extremely respectful to Xiao Fan, to the point that he was about to kneel down and kowtow!
But, how was this possible?
Who didn't know their father, Jin Ling's temper?
He wanted him to kneel down and kowtow? Unless his legs were broken!
But now …?
They looked at each other. Jin Zhen, the Little Roc King's mother, and the Little Roc King's eyes all flashed with a hint of shock and uncertainty!
What exactly was Xiao Fan's background and identity that could make their father and grandfather, Jin Ling, act in such a manner?
Could it be that Xiao Fan was a terrifying existence from the Middle Region, or even the Upper Region?
Looking at the disappearing figures of Xiao Fan and Jin Ling in the distance, the three of them stood there, their hearts surging with tempestuous waves. They couldn't calm down for a long time.
.....
In the depths of the Jin Ling Clan, in an elegant pavilion on the top of a mountain!
"How have you been these few years, thousands of years?" Xiao Fan asked.
"Just like that!" Jin Ling shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "You sent someone to find me back then, but I happened to be in seclusion and couldn't see him. However, your people left behind the cultivation methods to advance to the Noble Realm and even higher realms!
"Unfortunately, there was an accident when I was in seclusion. A member of the Demon Clan snuck in and fought with me in the secret chamber. Although I killed him, I was also seriously injured by him!
"From then on, even if I knew how to advance to the Noble Realm, I couldn't break through because my foundation was damaged. I'll be like this for the rest of my life!"
Xiao Fan didn't speak. He just kept silent and then sighed softly!
It was fate!
Jin Ling's talent back then was definitely not bad. Even without his help, he had a one percent chance of breaking through to the Noble Realm. However, the Demon Clan's surprise attack had damaged Jin Ling's foundation and left it there until now. There was really no other way.
"After your foundation was damaged, you should have come to the Upper Region to find me!" Xiao Fan said seriously, "If this problem was solved immediately, it wouldn't be a big problem at all!"
"I know!" Jin Ling said helplessly. "I'm not a pretentious person. I knew that my foundation was damaged and I kept delaying it, but I still didn't go to find you!"
"It's just that when the Demon Clan started to riot, the entire Central imperial realm was in chaos. I went to the Middle Region to find the outpost of the Magic Kingdom. However, before I could reach there, I almost died!"
"Later on, I used the communication device left behind by the person you sent. However, when I escaped back to the Lower Region, it was broken, so …!"
At this point, Jin Ling could only smile bitterly!
Some things were really destined. No one could do anything about it. He could only smile bitterly at his fate.
"What happened back then was a freak combination of factors. It's very difficult to recover, so let's not talk about it. However, would the Golden Winged Family be willing to join the Magic Kingdom?" Xiao Fan didn't say anything else and just nodded.
"Since the Devil Emperor has personally invited me, I naturally have to obey!" Jin Ling immediately nodded with a smile and agreed very straightforwardly. However, he changed the topic and said, "But I'll pass!"
"Why?" Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows and asked.
"I don't have many years left to live!" Jin Ling looked into the distance and sighed softly. "If you want to rebuild the Magic Kingdom, it's definitely not something that can be done overnight. By the time you start rebuilding the Magic Kingdom, I'll have died of old age and won't be able to contribute anything to the rebuilding of the Magic Kingdom!"
"If I agree to join the Magic Kingdom, you'll definitely give me a lot of things. Since I didn't contribute to the rebuilding of the Magic Kingdom, I'll have to enjoy many benefits in advance!"
"So, forget it!"
