After finishing his daily morning homework, Ling Dong came to Ling Yuanshan's room in high spirits. "Father, pack up. Take me to the Zuo Family."
On the other hand, Ling Yuanshan looked a little dispirited. His face was covered with a thin layer of oil and his eyes were bloodshot. It seemed that he had not slept all night.
"Go to the Zuo Family? What are you going to do there? " Ling Yuanshan was jolted awake from his deep thoughts. He looked at his son, who was brimming with energy, before he furrowed his eyebrows and said: "Dong-er, this time, you really didn't think things through. If father knew that you would agree like this, I would definitely have stopped you!"
"Father, don't worry!" Ling Dong promised.
"Why should I worry?" Ling Yuanshan frowned. "You are still too young and impatient. Why do you have to make a bet when you can just bear with it? There are only two options to accomplish this. First, let Master Shui leave the Zuo Family and return to the Ling family! That won't work. Even if Master Shui is willing, the Zuo Family won't! Could it be that you didn't understand that the reason Grandmaster Shui left behind that blood letter was so that you would suffer in the family and be punished?
Second, find a way to get rid of Master Shui and invite a medium level alchemist back to the Ling family! That's even more ridiculous! First, the Zuo Family treats Master Shui like a treasure. Second, they will definitely protect him in this special period. What's more, how are you going to invite a middle-ranked alchemist? Where are you going to invite him? The Ling family has worked hard all these years, but they didn't even invite a low level alchemist, let alone a medium level alchemist. Otherwise, Master Shui wouldn't have been so arrogant! Sigh! "
After a long sigh, Ling Yuanshan stood up and said, "Let's go. Come with me to see your Second Grandpa. Ask him to mediate and apologize to the First Elder. Then, I will give up the Ling family's business in the South Mountain Market. Then, this matter will be over!" As he got up, Ling Yuanshan rubbed his forehead in pain. He hadn't slept at all last night because of this matter!
"Dad!" Ling Dong called out with some dissatisfaction. How could he have so little confidence in himself?
"Father, think about the Three Flowered Demonic Aura Pill, the talismans I gave you, the Marching Wine, and so on. If I didn't give you anything first and directly told you that I can refine those pills and talismans, would you believe me?" Ling Dong tried to persuade him helplessly.
A few days ago, Ling Dong gave some of the life-saving talismans that he made every day to his father as a precaution. Of course, with the previous storage talisman, Ling Yuanshan was not too surprised by this!
Ling Yuanshan, who was just about to leave, was stunned. He lowered his head and pondered for a moment. Then, he looked at Ling Dong with an astonished gaze!
If Ling Dong hadn't mentioned it, he really wouldn't have noticed this!
The things that his son did during this period of time were indeed out of people's expectations. However, the treasures that Ling Dong gave him were all for him to see the real thing first, so he didn't think about it in this direction! Now that he heard Ling Dong say it, he understood!
If Ling Dong didn't take out the Three Flowered Demonic Aura Pill and directly said to him, "Dad, I can refine the Three Flowered Demonic Aura Pill, would you believe me?" Ling Yuanshan's first reaction was probably to slap him and scold him, "How can you talk so big at such a young age!"
After thinking about this, Ling Yuanshan's belief that his son couldn't accomplish something that was absolutely impossible in his eyes was shaken!
"Dong-er, are you really … sure?" Ling Yuanshan asked carefully.
"Yes, I'm 100% sure! Dad, you don't have to worry! "Ling Dong said confidently!
Ling Yuanshan wasn't the kind of person who would kill without hesitation. After thinking for a while, he looked suspiciously at Ling Dong a few times. He was still worried, "What are you going to do? Can you tell me first?"
"It won't work if I say it out loud!" Ling Dong said. For this matter, he needed his father's cooperation. If his father knew about it beforehand, it wouldn't work too well!
"Alright, I'll go with you!" Ling Yuanshan seemed to have made a great decision, "Oh right, do I need to prepare any gifts?"
"No need!" Ling Dong shook his head!
After a while, Ling Yuanshan and Ling Dong, followed by Gao Yuan, left the Ling family empty-handed and went straight to the Zuo family! However, Ling Yuanshan didn't seem to be in a good state of mind. He was a little tired and didn't seem to be very confident.
Not long after Ling Yuanshan and his son left, the Ling family courtyard was bustling with noise and excitement.
"First Elder, Second Master. First Master just left with Third Young Master. Judging from the direction, they are going straight to the Zuo family! "A shrewd guard reported.
"Oh, you're leaving so soon? Did they bring any gifts? Did you see their expressions? "Ling Zhengshan, who was discussing something with his father, Ling Gaofeng, asked.
"Second Master, no, they left empty-handed. First Master looked very tired. Third Young Master, on the other hand, looked very confident!"
"Oh … You may leave. Send someone to keep an eye on them. Report back if there's any news!" Ling Zhengshan said.
After dismissing the guards, Ling Zhengshan asked in bewilderment, "Father, what do you think Ling Dong is trying to sell? Where does his confidence come from? "
Ling Gaofeng didn't answer Ling Zhengshan's question. Instead, he asked, "Has there been any news from them?"
"Dad, I sent someone to inform them last night. I also told them that it was quite serious. I warned them to be careful of people who are trying to harm Master Shui!" Ling Zhengshan replied.
Ling Gaofeng closed his eyes. His face was gloomy. "What about that matter? Did the Zuo family respond?"
"Dad, the current head of the Zuo family, Zuo Xuancheng, has already promised to do it. However, he can't say when!" Ling Zhengshan said.
Ling Gaofeng raised his eyebrows and opened his eyes. "What do you mean by 'can't say'? Does that guy want to take the benefits without doing anything? "
"It's like this, Dad. Zuo Yicheng said that the Zuo family's Old Ancestor has been in seclusion recently. It's not certain when he will come out of seclusion. At least two months, at most half a year. Once he comes out of seclusion, he will do it! Besides, I've also asked around. The Zuo family's Old Ancestor has indeed been in seclusion for four months! "Ling Zhengshan said.
"At least two months, at most half a year? Although there's still time, I'm still afraid that something unexpected will happen! Go and urge the Zuo family's Old Ancestor to do it as soon as he comes out of seclusion! If that guy really breaks through to the Earth Realm, our bloodline won't have a chance to shine for the next few hundred years! "
"Yes, Dad, don't worry. If it really doesn't work, I'll send more of that thing!" Ling Zhengshan said.
"Yes, that thing is really good stuff. Get that kid to work harder. I feel that he's not far away from Xiantian Realm Level Nine!"
"Then I'll congratulate you first, Dad!" Ling Zhengshan's face was full of joy.

In another abode in the Ling family's courtyard, Ling Tieshan knocked lightly on the door a few times. An old voice sounded from inside!
"Tieshan, come in. I haven't started cultivating yet!" It was the voice of the second elder, Ling Xuanfeng.
After entering the abode, Ling Tieshan greeted him and stood at the side. He then said carefully, "Dad, Big Brother brought Dong-er to the Zuo family. They left empty-handed!"
Hearing this, Ling Xuanfeng just pondered but didn't say anything. Ling Tieshan, on the other hand, was anxious!
"Dad, what do you think Ling Dong is doing? He boasted in the meeting hall, but did he really kowtow and apologize? "Ling Tieshan didn't understand.
"If it were you, would you go?" Ling Xuanfeng narrowed his eyes. "I really can't see through Dong-er's actions this time. I've looked at all the possibilities, but I don't think he can do it! Even if he really lowered himself and apologized, it's impossible! "
After a pause, Ling Xuanfeng said, "Send someone to follow them closely. See what they do!" In the end, he seemed to be talking to himself. "If it doesn't work, I'll have to show up … Sigh …"
Hearing this, Ling Tieshan was even more dissatisfied. "Dad, why do you always speak for Ling Dong? If you spoke for us, Ling Dong and even Ling Yuanshan would have been dealt with by us!" Ling Tieshan complained.
"Dealt with?" Ling Xuanfeng sneered. "I'm afraid not! Fortunately, you didn't succeed. When you succeed, it will be the end of the Ling family! "
"Dad, is it that serious?" Ling Tieshan didn't believe it.
"You'll find out in the future. Well, you can't understand these things. You just need to do what I tell you! "Ling Xuanfeng said.

In the Zuo family's mansion in South Mountain Commandery, the current head of the family, Zuo Xuancheng, was holding a greeting card. After looking at it for a while, he said to the housekeeper, "Is this really from Ling Yuanshan's housekeeper?" Zuo Xuancheng was Zuo Guangzong's father. The rules of the Zuo family were different from the Ling family. The younger generation was in charge, while the older generation was focused on cultivation. The position of head of the family fell to Zuo Xuancheng.
"It's true. I just sent Housekeeper Liu away."
"Strange. What are they doing here? Did they really come to humiliate themselves? "Zuo Xuancheng muttered. He paced a few steps and suddenly turned around.
"Since they're here to be slapped in the face, I'll feel bad if I don't do it! Come, invite the young masters from the other branches over, and invite the two elders over as well! Also, tell Master Shui that Ling Yuanshan and Ling Dong are here! I've finished half of what I promised him today. He can come and see! "
