"Sorry to keep you waiting, Seniors." Ling Dong, who had tidied himself up, slowly walked into the guest hall. He cupped his hands slightly at Zhangsun Tong and the other two, who had ugly expressions on their faces.
It made sense. As half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods, Zhangsun Tong and the other three would receive a grand welcome wherever they went. When had they ever been treated like this, being ignored by their master for an entire day?
It would be strange if their expressions were good.
However, even though they had been ignored for an entire day and night, Zhangsun Tong and the other two hurriedly got up when they saw Ling Dong walk in. Even though they were unwilling, they still cupped their hands in greeting. "Greetings, Young Master Ling."
If it had been in the past, they would have slapped anyone who dared to do this to Ling Dong. However, with Ling Dong's influence now, they had no choice but to lower their noble heads. Moreover, they had come to ask Ling Dong for a favor.
After some small talk, Ling Dong asked directly, "Seniors, you have come to my humble abode and waited for an entire day. May I know why you have come?"
Upon hearing Ling Dong's words, whether it was Zhangsun Tong and the other two, or Wu Zhengyang, who was hiding outside the room in case something happened, they all cursed Ling Dong for being shameless.
Everyone knew what Zhangsun Tong and the other two had come here for. Ling Dong's question had forcefully pulled down Zhangsun Tong and the other two's faces.
While Zhangsun Tong and the other two had ugly expressions, Wu Zhengyang, who was outside the door, was also secretly glad.
In fact, it was not that Ling Dong was being mean. If it had been a few half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods, such as those half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods who had used excuses to leave during the chaotic battle at the Star Dou Mountain Range, Ling Dong would definitely treat them with great respect.
However, Zhangsun Tong had fought to the death for the Star Luo Temple that day, and now he was shamelessly coming to Ling Dong's door. It would be strange if Ling Dong would treat him nicely. Ling Dong was no saint.
Zhangsun Tong's expression was abnormally awkward. They were all from the United Ming Alliance. How could they not understand why Ling Dong was acting like this? After muttering to himself for a moment, Zhangsun Tong gave his two companions a look. After that, he bowed slightly to Ling Dong and said, "The Star Dou Mountain Range truly had no choice. Please forgive us, young master Ling."
Zhangsun Tong's shameless behavior surprised Ling Dong slightly, and he was even more certain of the value of the God Sealing Stone now.
Seeing Ling Dong's expression soften slightly, Zhangsun Tong went with the flow, "Today I am here to ask Young Master Ling for a way out. That day, Young Master Ling had said that anyone who was interested in the Godly Bestowment Stone could come and find him.
We came here today for the Godseal Stone, and we are willing to swear a Soul Oath to serve Young Master Ling for three hundred years. Please grant us our wish, Young Master Ling, "Zhangsun Tong said in an extremely humble manner.
After speaking, Zhangsun Tong and the other two looked at Ling Dong with slightly nervous expressions, as if they were afraid that Ling Dong wouldn't agree. After all, in the entire Long 'An Realm, only Ling Dong had taken out the God Sealing Stone. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so thick-skinned as to come here.
Under the nervous gazes of Zhangsun Tong and the other two, Ling Dong suddenly stood up and laughed loudly, "Three seniors have come together. How could I not agree? How could I not agree?" To be honest, at this moment, Ling Dong was also a little proud.
The three in front of him were half-step Zhou Tian orthodox gods. Wherever they went, they were existences that could shake three times with a stomp of their feet. Now, they actually took the initiative to bow to Ling Dong and serve him. That kind of satisfaction that came from the bottom of his heart was indescribable.
Hearing this, Zhangsun Tong and the other two were overjoyed. At the same time, they thanked him, "Thank you, Young Master Ling, for granting our wish."
Ling Dong laughed and didn't talk nonsense. He said directly, "I think you've already found out about this matter. Then, three seniors, please swear a Soul Oath here."
Ling Dong's idea was very clear. He still had two God Sealing Stones, and he couldn't give them away without full control. None of these half-step Zhou Tian orthodox gods were righteous people. If he didn't control them, they would all be ruthless existences.
"Swear a Soul Oath?" Zhangsun Tong and the other two frowned. After the three of them looked at each other, Zhangsun Tong said, "No problem, we can do it now."
"Then please!"
"However, before we swear a Soul Oath, can Young Master Ling give each of us a God Sealing Stone first?" Zhangsun Tong suddenly said unexpectedly.
Ling Dong's face suddenly darkened. "Zhangsun Tong, are you joking?"
"Young Master Ling, we heard you say that you only have two God Sealing Stones left, but there are three of us. If we swear a Soul Oath, what if we can't get the God Sealing Stones?" Zhangsun Tong argued.
"You don't have to worry about that. The God Sealing Stones I have won't be given to you immediately after you swear a Soul Oath. They will be given to you one by one based on your situation, your comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth, so that you can break through to Zhou Tian Shen. As for the number of God Sealing Stones, you don't have to worry about not having enough. I have my ways. "
After a pause, Ling Dong made up his mind. He didn't want to waste time arguing with them. He said directly, "And I won't hide it from you. If you want the God Sealing Stones, you can't just swear a Soul Oath. After you swear a Soul Oath, you have to let go of your Soul Origin and let me plant a Soul Slaying Nail. Only then will it be over. "
"What? You want to plant a Soul Slaying Nail?" Zhangsun Tong and the other two looked angry. "Then aren't you going to order us around like angry servants?"
Seeing the three angry people, Ling Dong rolled his eyes. "If you don't want to, then please leave. The Ling family didn't invite you here!"
They worked so hard for the Star Luo Divine Palace and didn't get the God Sealing Stones. Now that it was Ling Dong's turn, they wanted to take the God Sealing Stones with just a few words. Did they think he was a fool? Ling Dong was a fool.
Ling Dong's words made Zhangsun Tong and the other two lose their temper. They could only do their best to suppress their anger.
After a few breaths, Zhangsun Tong, who had suppressed his anger, cupped his hands and asked, "Young Master Ling, won't you reconsider? We're very sincere. "
"Very sincere? I'm also very sincere? " Ling Dong took out a God Sealing Stone and waved it. "But where's your sincerity? You're only talking, but you haven't done anything yet."
Staring greedily at the God Sealing Stone in Ling Dong's hand and sensing Wu Zhengyang's aura nearby, Zhangsun Tong licked his lips and said, "Young Master Ling, as long as you give us the God Sealing Stone, we'll immediately swear a Soul Oath to follow your orders!"
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Ling Dong scolded very ungracefully. "Swear a Soul Oath first, then plant a Soul Slaying Nail. When you break through, you'll follow my orders. No more discussion."
Zhangsun Tong's expression suddenly changed. "Young Master Ling, you have to think carefully. There are more than three of us!"
"More than three? What do you mean? "Ling Dong narrowed his eyes.
"To prevent any accidents, there are three half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods waiting outside the Ling family castle. As long as Young Master Ling does as we say, six half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods will immediately join Young Master Ling's side."
After a pause, Zhangsun Tong said meaningfully, "Young Master Ling, you have to think carefully. Six half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods are a force that can decide the outcome."
"What do you mean?" Ling Dong raised his eyebrows. "Are you threatening me? If I don't agree, you'll go to the Star Luo Temple? "
"We wouldn't dare!" Zhangsun Tong's posture was extremely humble, but he still said, "Please reconsider, Young Master Ling!" It was clear that he was threatening Ling Dong with this. If you agree, then so be it. If you don't, then we'll go to the enemy. It's that simple.
"Reconsider?" Ling Dong sneered. "You dare to threaten me with this? I'll tell you the truth, it's impossible!"
"Young Master Ling …"
"Come, see the guest out!" Anger appeared on Ling Dong's face. If it weren't for the fact that his family members were here and might affect them, Ling Dong would have had the urge to kill Zhangsun Tong.
Seeing Ling Dong refuse so firmly, Zhangsun Tong's face flashed with anger. He said in a low voice, "Young Master Ling, you have to think carefully. It's just a matter of order. We're sincerely here to join you. Moreover, your family members … "
"My family members?" Ling Dong's face suddenly showed a trace of an extremely dangerous smile. "What, Zhangsun Tong, are you threatening me with the lives of my family members?
Let me tell you, from today on, not to mention a family member of the Ling family, even if a servant goes missing, I'll send a few half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods to visit your homes and kill them ten times over! "
While the corners of Ling Dong's mouth emitted a dense murderous aura, he laughed coldly and said, "I have more than ten half-step Heavenly Cycle Righteous Gods under my command. I don't believe that the Star Gauze Divine Palace would place a large number of guards at your homes.
In his mind, Ling Dong had already contacted Bai Bai Xuan and Vermilion Bird. "Senior Brother, do you have confidence in killing six half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods?"
"Six half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods?" Bai Bai Xuan pondered for a moment. "If they fight to the death and don't run, killing three or four of them won't be a problem. But if they want to escape, we might not be able to kill even one …"
"Father, I can concentrate all my strength to kill one quickly, but if the others run with all their strength, I can't stop them. If Father can stop them for me, it won't be a problem to kill them with some time. "This was the answer Ling Dong received after asking Vermilion Bird.
"Kill them ten times over, how dare you!" Zhangsun Tong was also shocked by Ling Dong's ruthlessness. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Young Master Ling, we can make a Soul Oath, but after that, you must give us the God Sealing Stone. As for the Soul Killing Nail, forgive us for not being able to accept it. We're already very sincere! Otherwise … "Zhangsun Tong's pleading was quite threatening.
"I'm also very sincere!" Ling Dong sneered and pointed outside the door. "Do as I say, or leave!"
When he said this, Ling Dong was a little depressed. Ling Dong didn't expect Zhangsun Tong to threaten him with this. Ling Dong was almost certain that even if these people made a Soul Oath, as long as they got the God Sealing Stone, they would definitely hide somewhere and cultivate in seclusion for one or two hundred years. What could Ling Dong do to them?
Besides, Ling Dong had a deeper level of consideration. These people had risked their lives for the Star Luo Temple. Was there a shadow of the Star Luo Temple behind them?
This was what Ling Dong was most worried about!
"Ling Dong, you've gone too far!" In an instant, Zhangsun Tong's body overflowed with murderous intent.
"Humph! Little Four, come out and get ready to eat meat! " There was a flash of fire in front of him, and a fire shadow suddenly rose into the sky, staring coldly at Zhangsun Tong and the others.
Ling Dong sighed helplessly. The timing was too bad. Most of his half-step Zhou Tian righteous gods hadn't arrived yet. Mu Tie's cultivation had just soared. Although he had a cultivation base, he might not be able to fully utilize it. Moreover, this was his family's headquarters, so he could only endure.
"Humph, don't regret it. Let's go!" Seeing the Vermillion Bird staring at them from the sky, Zhangsun Tong's threat failed, and the three of them left quickly.
Seeing Zhangsun Tong leave, Ling Dong suddenly ordered, "Mu Tie, follow them from afar!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to vote for it at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
