The general of an army
"Everyone, you're too polite!"
Lin Ling said with a smile as he held his wine cup. What he did was to avoid being suppressed by the Third Prince. The Third Prince had bullied him time and time again. Everything that happened today was his own fault. Moreover, the grudge between him and the Third Prince had yet to be resolved!
He had tried to kill Lin Ling three times. How could an apology end all grudges?
"Lin Ling, you defeated the top scholar in both civil and military affairs, and led an army to defend the Heavenly Fragrance City. Now, you have enough strength to become a general of a hundred armies!" the Second Prince said after drinking a mouthful of wine.
"General of a hundred armies?"
Lin Ling was slightly puzzled.
"Right, the current inner city of Ocean of Clouds City is as deep as the ocean. Besides us princes, there are the four kings, the three pillars, the Empress Dowager, the Grand Preceptor, and so on. Finally, there are the Generals of the Army. The Generals of the Army are a force that can't be underestimated in the city. Even Zhang Sanshan is one of them!" King Duan continued.
To be able to become a general of a hundred armies, every single one of them was a top-notch expert. Their status was only below the four kings!
Lin Ling nodded. He knew that he was only the number one expert of the younger generation. However, some Great Generals had deep foundations and were powerful. Currently, he had only just stepped into the circle of Great Generals!
Ocean of Clouds City really is like an ocean!
However, Lin Ling was confident. After all, he had been in the inner city for less than a year, and he had already defeated experts of the same age. Therefore, he could also surpass the general of a hundred armies!
"Third Brother has suffered a great loss this time. I think he won't dare to be too arrogant in the future. Come, everyone, let's drink. Today is Lin Ling's celebration banquet!" the Second Prince said again.
Everyone raised their glasses.
The night was deep like an ocean, and the estate was bustling and clamorous. Compared to this, Ocean of Clouds City seemed to be quite quiet!
"Third Brother has suffered a great loss, and his reputation has fallen. Many forces and generals have lost confidence in him!"
In a secluded mountain range, a bare-chested young man spoke to himself. His body was tall and sturdy, revealing his well-defined muscles. It was as if he was hiding a true dragon. His long hair was scattered and casually draped over his shoulders, adding a demonic aura to his handsome face.
"Your Majesty, that Lin Ling has completely risen. I'm afraid he's become the general of a hundred armies!" A seductive woman stood quietly at the side, holding the young man's golden robe in her hands.
"Then what is his strength?" The young man asked indifferently.
"It's said that he's at the middle stage of the Earth Spirit Realm!" The woman said.
"Mm, with such strength, he can barely become a general of a hundred armies. You have to know that even the weakest general of a hundred armies is in the mid earth spirit realm, and many of the geniuses are in the sky spirit realm. As long as his strength takes another step forward, he'll have the qualifications to become one of the four kings. This Lin Ling is still far from that!" The young man shook his head.
"However, Lin Ling is only 18 years old now. He's the youngest general of a hundred armies in the history of the Heaven Mystics Kingdom!" The woman continued.
"Mm, he has some potential. His potential is even greater than his father, Lin Chen. He did what his father didn't do back then, but that's all there is to it. As a country kid from the outer city, his current achievements are probably his limit!" The young man looked at the mountain range behind him!
Rumble!
In the mountain range, a terrifying waterfall gushed down!
"True Dragon Fist!"
The young man yelled out and blasted out a fist. The giant waterfall was blasted apart, and the water flowed backward!
"Ocean of Clouds City isn't as simple as it seems. It's difficult for him to rise. However, the members of the Fire Ancient Clan are all fated with my Ocean of Clouds Empire. His father died from infamy in order to help me succeed, and I established the demeanor of a king!"
"His son is the same, but Third Brother obviously failed when he wanted to establish the demeanor of a king. Hahaha!"
His laughter shook the heavens!
He was the Crown Prince, a natural ruler who carried the aura of a king since he was young!
To him, Lin Ling was like an ant that he couldn't care less about. However, Lin Ling had helped him suppress the Third Prince, and this made him feel slightly satisfied. Perhaps this was the value of an ant's existence!
"Lin Ling? I've never heard of this name, but he dared to suppress the Third Prince. This young man is really formidable! "
In the bustling streets of Ocean of Clouds City, an old man drank tea and spoke quietly. His eyes flickered like stars, and the passersby who walked past him completely treated him as an ordinary old man.
"Lin Ling? Does he have the qualifications to become the general of an army? He's simply a disgrace to us generals! "
"It's said that this kid isn't even 18 years old. Haha, what a mockery to us generals. Back then, I killed millions of people and barely became a general!"
"He's just a junior in the Earth Spirit Realm, what qualifications does he have to be arrogant!"
In every corner, the powerful generals snorted coldly in their hearts. Obviously, they were dissatisfied with the rise of an alien star that had entered their ranks!
At this moment, Lin Ling naturally didn't care about the thoughts of the outside world. He was already in a state of cultivation!
He was currently in the middle stage of the Earth Spirit Realm, had comprehended two great concepts of fire, and possessed the strongest fire art of the generation — Prairie Blazing Flames!
According to his guesses, he didn't fear anyone unless they were in the Sky Spirit Realm!
However, his goal was too strong, so his current strength wasn't enough for him to be proud of!
"I wonder if I can open a new page in the Blazing Flames Art?"
Lin Ling took out the ancient stone book and poured his spirit qi into it. However, the ancient stone book remained unmoved, and a new page still couldn't be opened.
It was obvious that Lin Ling wanted to find a new method to rebirth flames, but his strength still hadn't reached the required level. Perhaps only by reaching the peak of the Earth Spirit Realm would he be able to easily open a new page!
A silent night passed, and Lin Ling opened his eyes at dawn. A night of cultivation hadn't allowed his cultivation to progress much, but the realm he'd just broken through had gradually stabilized.
He pushed open the door and walked out. Laughter continuously rang out from the manor's garden.
Forefather Taiyan and the others had returned to the outer city, while Youyou and the others had stayed behind to take care of Lin Ling. As for Lin Ling's Flame Legion, Tian Xiaoman had taken them away. However, Lin Ling was afraid that something would happen to the Fire Ancient Clan again, so he'd let the Flame Legion stay in the Ancient Clan!
Looking ahead, it seemed that the three girls were discussing how to plant flowers. They'd already made Lin Ling's manor their home!
The harmonious and joyful scene made Lin Ling smile faintly. No matter how much he fought outside, he felt relaxed at home. No matter how tired he was, as long as he thought of his family at home, he would resolutely continue to fight and never fall!
"Sister Xiaolan, this is the Night Orchid of the Great Prairie. Can we plant it here?"
"Mm, Youyou, but we can also plant some Heavenly Red Roses here!"
"The flowers you two planted aren't bad, but the formation you set up isn't good. This side should be set up like this, and the other side should set up a Nine Palace Formation. This way, the layout will be even better!"
What surprised Lin Ling was that Youyou and Qin Xiaolan liked to plant flowers. This was very normal, but the Heavenly Concubine, the high and mighty strategist, also liked to plant flowers like ordinary girls.
