A little famous?
"Lin Ling, you're here!"
Knowing that Lin Ling was coming, Duke Duan was already waiting at the entrance of the mansion.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
Lin Ling bowed slightly. He had some respect for this middle-aged man. After all, Duke Duan was his benefactor. It was all thanks to Duke Duan that the Fire Ancient Clan could remain safe and sound.
Duan Wangye smiled and nodded, his gaze sizing up Lin Ling. The young man in front of him had a slender body, well-proportioned limbs, and a handsome appearance. His facial features were distinct, making him look like a divine jade. Most importantly, his eyes would occasionally emit a light, a depth that did not match his age. It had to be said that such a genius was indeed very attractive!
"Come with me!"
Duan Wangye smiled and led Lin Ling forward.
The two of them walked all the way through the barracks and finally arrived at the foot of a small hill. There were people surging around, and from time to time, there were shouts of people practicing martial arts. At a glance, those people were all dressed in the same color, and their ages were only between 20 and 30 years old!
"These people are all new recruits. They will belong to you in the future!" Duan Wangye pointed at the people in the distance and said.
"These are my subordinates?"
Lin Ling nodded. From the looks of it, these youths were all good seedlings. However, they lacked the iron-blooded aura of a soldier. They lacked the imposing manner of cutting off all means of retreat!
Of course, this was normal as those people came from all over the Heaven Mystics Kingdom. Had it not been for the change of era, they might still be ordinary martial artists!
"There are fifty thousand people here, and I have arranged an assistant for you. In the past, the assistant was in charge of them. Come with me!" Duan Wangye brought Lin Ling forward and said as he walked, "That's right, that assistant is a beauty, it's just that she's a bit spicy!"
"Xiao Man, come out!"
Prince Duan shouted as soon as he arrived at the barracks.
Everyone bowed when they saw Duan Wang Ye, and some of them looked at him with gratitude. If it weren't for Duan Wang Ye, they or their families would have already disappeared from this world!
"This subordinate greets Duke Duan!"
A woman walked out with large strides. She was tall and slender, and her skin was the color of wheat. Although her figure was lean forward and backward, she was filled with explosive power, just like a female leopard.
This woman was Lin Ling's assistant, Tian Xiaoman!
At that moment, Tian Xiaoman was looking at Prince Duan respectfully. If it weren't for Prince Duan, she would have died already. She would have died because of humiliation. Therefore, to her, Prince Duan was like her second parent.
Then, her gaze fell upon Lin Ling and she frowned. Not long ago, she had heard that Duke Duan would be bringing along a commander. Looks like it was that young man!
It was just that he was a little too young, even younger than her!
Although he was handsome, this was a military camp. Being handsome did not mean that he could fight!
Tian Xiaoman thought so in her heart, but she did not reveal it. She quietly waited for Duke Duan to speak.
Duke Duan looked around and saw the puzzled looks on everyone's faces. He immediately knew that many people were wondering who the new commander was. Then, he introduced Lin Ling to everyone!
"No way, it's really him. I guessed it was him from the start, but he's too young!"
"It's really annoying to be our commander at such a young age!"
"Shut up! Even if you're unwilling, you have to obey the military order!"
Discussions broke out all around, and it seemed that many people were unwilling to accept it.
"I'm Lin Ling, and I'll be your commander next!"
Lin Ling said nonchalantly, as if he did not hear the voices around him.
Hearing this, the crowd fell silent, and no one replied. When Tian Xiaoman saw this, she slowly said, "Greetings, Commander Lin!"
She seemed to have a good reputation among the 50,000 people. After she spoke, everyone saluted and shouted, "Greetings, Commander Lin!"
Duke Duan smiled faintly and said to Lin Ling, "In the military camp, strength is respected. Although you have a status, they only obey you on the surface, but they are not convinced in their hearts. If the hearts of an army are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team!"
"Lin Ling, I believe that you can complete this challenge perfectly. After you complete it, you will have an army of tigers and wolves!"
After Duke Duan finished speaking, he turned and left.
Lin Ling smiled. An army of tigers and wolves? He was a little interested. He said nonchalantly, "Is the deputy here? Let's set off for Tianxiang City. What do you think?"
Tian Xiaoman narrowed her eyes slightly. Earlier, Duan Wang Ye was there, so she didn't dare to be careless. But after Duan Wang Ye left, she relaxed. She wanted to tell this young man that he could be his commander, and they would go about their business as usual, minding their own business and living in harmony!
However, before she could say that, this young man had already put on airs as a commander!
'Is the deputy here?'
The way he addressed her was so smooth, as if she had become this young man's subordinate!
"Commander Lin, set off for Tianxiang City. You can leave whenever you want. A month, a year, it doesn't matter to us!" Tian Xiaoman said nonchalantly.
"Huh?"
Lin Ling's eyes narrowed. However, when he saw the arrogant smile on the woman's face, he smiled. He knew that if he did not win over this woman, these 50,000 people would not listen to him!
"What do you mean?"
"Haha! This journey to Tianxiang City is long and bumpy. Commander Lin is a precious person. If you don't rest well, you might not be able to make it to Tianxiang City. Since that is the case, why don't we wait for Commander Lin to rest well before leaving? A month, a year, it doesn't matter to us! "Tian Xiaoman spread out her hands and smiled.
"That's right. If we leave immediately and Commander Lin can't take the long journey, then wouldn't we have to go back halfway?"
"So, Commander Lin should rest well first!"
The people around agreed.
Obviously, they saw that Lin Ling was young and tender, so they guessed that Lin Ling would not be able to take the long journey. Moreover, if he did not have a strong martial power to back him up, he would not be able to take the long journey!
Lin Ling was so young, so how strong could he be? To be able to become a commander, his family must have given him a lot of money!
Lin Ling listened quietly and could not help but smile. "Since that is the case, then let's leave tomorrow!"
Tian Xiaoman was stunned. "Commander, you don't plan to rest well before leaving? I'm afraid you won't be able to go far with your body!"
"If I can't go far, then I'm afraid you won't be able to go far either!" Lin Ling shook his head and smiled.
When these words came out, many people were not convinced. They had been practicing martial arts since they were young and were very strong. They did not believe that Lin Ling was stronger than them. One of them said, "Commander, whether you can go far or not is not based on words, but on strength. Everyone, am I right?"
"Yes!"
Everyone yelled out in unison.
"If that's the case, then let ten of you come out. I will see who can go further!" Lin Ling was still smiling. If he wanted to subdue this group of people, it was obvious that strength was indispensable!
"What?"
The yelling instantly stopped as everyone stared with wide eyes. It seemed like this new commander was going to challenge them and establish his prowess with his martial prowess. Furthermore, he wasn't going to challenge one of them, but ten of them!
"Commander, let me remind you. Before they entered the Second Prince's camp, they were all rather reputable in the Heaven Mystics Kingdom!" Tian Xiaoman frowned and said.
