"Thank you, Hall Master, for giving me a new lease of life. This subordinate … this subordinate actually doubted Hall Master's motives. This subordinate deserves to die!" After a quarter of an hour, Pingmiao, who had completely absorbed the ball of seven-colored starlight, actually knelt down on one knee in front of Ling Dong in an extremely shocking manner. Everyone was shocked and bewildered.
"Hirai Centurion, what are you doing? Quickly get up, quickly get up!" Ling Dong, who had already understood what was going on, naturally hurriedly asked Hirai Centurion to get up.
However, Pingmiao insisted on not getting up. Instead, he said stubbornly, "To be honest, Hall Master, this subordinate has over a hundred scars of various sizes all over my body over the past few hundred years. I was on the brink of death several times before coming back to life. However, the result of my struggles at the brink of death is that this subordinate's Spirit Origin is also covered in cracks, just like my physical body.
This subordinate has been trapped at the peak of the Constellation Realm for sixty-three years. Because of the many cracks in my Spirit Origin, I was unable to fully comprehend the Heavenly Dao and make a breakthrough.
However, Hall Master's Soul Pill has repaired all the cracks in this subordinate's Spirit Origin. Not only that, but it has also allowed this subordinate's Spirit Origin to soar by a large margin. To be honest, this subordinate has already faintly sensed the opportunity to make a breakthrough! "
At this point, Pingmiao's expression turned ashamed. "Hall Master rewarded this subordinate with such a precious and rare Soul Pill, yet this subordinate actually doubted Hall Master's motives. This subordinate truly deserves to die. Hall Master, please punish me!"
Jin Fu's situation was similar to Pingmiao's. Most cultivators like them who had relied on their own two hands to fight their way up were the same. The only difference was that who was more severe.
"Hall Master, please punish this subordinate. This subordinate is truly ashamed!" Jin Fu, who had the same thoughts, also knelt down on one knee in front of Ling Dong and asked for punishment.
Just as Ji Yuanbai was about to kneel down with a red face, Ling Dong hurriedly stopped Ji Yuanbai and helped Pingmiao and Jin Fu up. "You don't have to do this. This is human nature. Heh, if it were me, I would probably think more about it. "
Ling Dong's magnanimity made Pingmiao and Jin Fu feel even more ashamed. Pingmiao suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Ling Dong and said, "Pingmiao will never forget Hall Master's kindness. From now on, this life of Pingmiao's belongs to Hall Master!"
"I, Jin Fu, will do the same. From today onwards, I will be at your service," Jin Fu said.
Ling Dong helped them up one by one, the expression in his eyes relaxing slightly.
Ever since Ling Dong first came into contact with the two of them, he had finally used various methods, such as intimidation and showing his gratitude to them. Finally, he had completely subdued them.
From that day onwards, there were no longer any strange voices in the Yangkou branch hall. Everything was under Ling Dong's control. Only in this way could Ling Dong be completely at ease and do his own things.
At this moment, Ling Dong turned his body slightly and shot his gaze towards the distant north, the place that constantly affected his Spirit.
Over the past few days, that vague feeling had become clearer and clearer. It was as if that feeling was constantly strengthening. He could even vaguely sense the approximate location.
Ling Dong felt a sense of urgency in the dark. Ling Dong could not wait to set off.
The matters of the Yangkou branch hall had been completely handed over to Cheng Dongyuan, Ji Yuanbai, Pingmiao, Jin Fu, Chu Fangyue, and Guan Xingzi. Moreover, Ling Dong had vaguely hinted to Cheng Dongyuan and the others that if there were any important matters that they could not resolve, they could discuss it with Guan Xingzi.
This was Ling Dong vaguely raising Guan Xingzi's status. After all, Guan Xingzi's hundreds of years of experience were not just for show.
The family's matters were all on the right track. After so many things had happened, the Ling family's higher-ups had completely united around Ling Dong, with Ling Dong as the center.
It could be said that the current Ling Dong was the soul of the Ling family.
However, even if Ling Dong left, the Ling family would have no problem protecting themselves. In a few more days, Ling Yuanshan, Ling Yuefeng, Ling Xuanfeng, Ling Tieshan, and the other two Ling family elders would be able to break through to the Celestial Venerate Realm.
Although they had the cultivation of a Celestial Venerate, they did not have the corresponding combat strength. However, such a force would be very intimidating. In addition, with the help of the criminal army and the Yangkou branch hall, the Ling family's safety would not be a problem at all.
Moreover, in Ling Dong's opinion, if the Ling family was always under his protection, then the Ling family would never be able to grow.
Perhaps only blood and fire could allow the Ling family's descendants to grow quickly. In Ling Dong's opinion, even if some of the current Ling family members died, it would be worth it.
At the same time, because of that mysterious feeling, Ling Dong felt that it was extremely important, which was why he wanted to leave the Ling family. At this time, it was the time when chaos was about to arrive.
Although he said that he wanted to leave in a hurry, Ling Dong still spent one or two days to prepare. In particular, he bought a few life-saving treasures for his father, wife, and other important family members.
This kind of selfishness was human nature, and it had nothing to do with anything else.
Two days later, Ling Dong silently soared into the sky from the Ling family's castle. He glanced at the Ling family, which had flourished in just half a year and become one of the top families in the three thousand mile radius of Yangkou City. He felt a bit emotional.
"If it's going at this speed, it won't be long before I kill my way back to the Vermilion Bird Star Field and flatten the Tu 'er Deer World!" Ling Dong murmured softly. Then, his figure flashed and he quickly flew toward the north.
In the past few days, Ling Dong had carefully sorted out these matters and discovered some clues.
Ling Dong discovered that the mysterious feeling in the far north had suddenly appeared after he used the forbidden technique, Commanding the Heavens, Imperial Star. Ling Dong guessed that it might have something to do with his Imperial Star Ring.
However, in the past, even if it had something to do with the Imperial Star Ring, it didn't have such a distant feeling. In the past, the Imperial Star Ring's range was only a few kilometers. This made Ling Dong feel very strange.
On the way, Ling Dong quickly flew as he chatted with Mountain God Yin Kang. "Old Ghost, you're a Mountain God. Why don't you try to sense where that mysterious feeling in the north is coming from?"
"I don't know. I'm a Mountain God, not an Earth God. Moreover, even if I'm an Earth God, I can't know everything in the world! "Mountain God Yin Kang snappily replied to Ling Dong, causing Ling Dong to choke on his words.
He simply stopped chatting with Mountain God Yin Kang and flew towards the north while thinking hard about the strange situation that had happened in the past few days.
In particular, the Taihō Palace, the Life and Death Tower, and the Tenmu Temple all gave the same strange order. Ling Dong clearly felt that he had discovered something, but he couldn't figure out what it was. This made Ling Dong feel very vexed.
Suddenly, Ling Dong, who was flying towards the north, felt a sense of danger in his heart. His flying momentum came to an abrupt halt, and an extremely faint ripple of light had already spread out in front of him.
"Warning formation?" Looking at the ripples that were rapidly moving towards Xi Lou City in the distance, Ling Dong couldn't help but feel astonished. In Ling Dong's eyes, the dozens of lights had already turned into small black dots and were rushing towards him.
"F * ck, that's too abnormal! I purposely went around Xi Lou City five hundred kilometers away and rushed to Liao Province in the north, and even triggered their warning formation. "Ling Dong cursed helplessly.
Ling Dong wasn't stupid. Before he set off, Ling Dong knew that Xi Lou City was the only way he could go to Liao Province in the north. According to reliable sources, not long after Ling Dong led people to kill Ying Cong and Ying Xiangrong from the Taihō Palace, another group of people from the Taihō Palace came and stationed themselves in Xi Lou City.
After the Yangkou branch hall reported this matter to the Yuanzhou branch domain, the Yuanzhou branch domain's reply was to temporarily delay it and ignore it. The Yangkou branch hall could only delay it like this.
Therefore, when Ling Dong went out this time, he purposely took a detour of five hundred miles around Xi Lou City. After going around one thousand five hundred miles, he did not expect that he would still run into their warning array.
"These guys actually set up a warning formation five hundred kilometers away from Xi Lou City, or even further away. What are they trying to do? Why are they willing to sacrifice so much? "Looking at the cultivators in Taihō Palace attire rushing towards him, Ling Dong frowned.
What were the people behind this incident looking for?
There were a total of 20 cultivators rushing over from afar. One of them was a First Level Celestial Monarch, and the other 19 were all in the early, middle, and late stages of the Constellation Realm. Together, they were not a weak force.
"An Eighth Level Constellation Realm lone traveler? Hey, where are you from, and where are you going? " The Celestial Monarch leading the group wantonly scanned Ling Dong's body with his Spirit power several times, revealing Ling Dong's cultivation before asking impatiently.
In fact, if Ling Dong had not deliberately released his aura, it would have been strange if this guy could sense Ling Dong's cultivation with his Spirit power.
Since he knew the true purpose of this group of people setting up a warning formation here, Ling Dong naturally had a way to deal with it.
"I came from Yuanzhou's Lanhai County and went to Liao Province's Liao Sea to find a few materials to refine a Spirit Artifact. Brothers, what are you doing here?" Ling Dong casually said the excuse he had thought of.
The Celestial Monarch leading the group frowned and scolded impatiently, "Don't talk nonsense. From Yuanzhou's Lanhai County to here, you must have passed through at least two major roads. How could you not know the rules of the road inspection?"
"Oh!" Ling Dong revealed a look of realization. "So you are with them. It's just that I really don't know the rules!"
This was Ling Dong's honest words. He really didn't know the rules.
"Stop pretending!" A peak Constellation Realm cultivator at the side glared at Ling Dong. "We brothers stand guard here every day, eating the wind and drinking the dew. If you want to pass through safely, you have to!" As he spoke, that cultivator rubbed his fingers.
With this gesture, Ling Dong immediately understood the meaning behind it. These fellows were using the opportunity of interrogating him as an opportunity to get some benefits. Ling Dong was not the kind of person who did not know how to be flexible. With a flash of light in his hand, a hundred mid-grade Reiki appeared out of thin air.
"That's right, that's right. This is just a small token. Please buy some high-quality water and wine to moisten your mouths." In Ling Dong's opinion, using some Reiki to do something was not a big deal at all.
The peak Constellation Realm cultivator glared at Ling Dong and scolded, "Are you trying to dismiss a beggar? A thousand, at least a thousand mid-grade Reiki. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving!"
"A thousand?" Ling Dong was stunned. Then, he nodded and muttered to himself, "Brothers, there are so many of you. A hundred is too little. A thousand, I'll pay!"
Seeing Ling Dong take out a thousand mid-grade Reiki, the peak Constellation Realm cultivator grinned and reached out to take the Reiki. Just as he was about to take it, his hand was stopped by the first level Celestial Monarch Realm cultivator.
"I say, Old Zhu, you've been sunbathing here every day. Is your brain damaged? Among the people we've checked these days, there aren't many lone travelers. You only took a thousand mid-grade Reiki from this lone traveler. Compared to his life, don't you think it's too little? "
As the first level Celestial Monarch Realm cultivator spoke slowly, the eyes of the Taihō Palace cultivators surrounding Ling Dong became unfriendly! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
