Ling Dong braved the wind and snow to rush to his father's front yard. However, he was informed by a servant that Ling Yuanshan had gone to his own backyard. Ling Dong felt a little strange as he walked towards his own courtyard!
Living in a big family had its disadvantages. For example, in this snowy day, there wasn't much snow on the ground during the day. The servants were constantly sweeping the ground, destroying the tranquility of the snowy day for no reason!
When he reached his own backyard, Ling Dong saw Ling Yuanshan from afar. He was standing at the door, watching two servants moving things inside. He was laughing and talking to Ling Dong. This made Ling Dong feel very strange!
"Father, what are you doing?" Ling Dong was stunned as he walked closer. The two servants were actually carrying plates of freshly cut vegetables and meat.
"Oh, Dong-er, you're back. I was just about to ask Gao Yuan to look for you!" Seeing Ling Dong's puzzled look, Ling Yuanshan held Ling Dong's shoulder and smiled. "Come, come, come. It's snowing heavily today. Since I have nothing to do, I asked the kitchen to prepare a hot pot. Let's have a chat!"
"Hot pot?" When he entered the house and saw the steaming hot pot with the copper charcoal core, as well as the various cut vegetables and meat on the table, Ling Dong understood that his father wanted to eat with him!
"En, come, come, come. Sit, sit down and talk!" Ling Yuanshan personally boiled a pot of good wine and sat opposite Ling Dong. He began to boil the meat!
Amidst the steaming hot pot, a few pieces of spicy mutton entered his stomach, dispersing the cold in his body. Ling Dong looked at Ling Yuanshan and was a little puzzled. What was his father drinking today?
What made Ling Dong even more puzzled was that Ling Yuanshan actually stood up to pour the wine himself. Ling Dong wanted to pour it, but he didn't let him!
"Dong 'er, do you know what day it is today?" Ling Yuanshan raised his cup and asked.
"What day? Father, is it your birthday?" Ling Dong's old face turned red as he guessed in surprise. At the same time, he felt ashamed. As a son of two lives, he didn't even remember his father's birthday. It was really a bit outrageous!
However, Ling Yuanshan revealed a reproachful expression. "This child, are you making fun of your father? Today is not your father's birthday. It's your birthday. Don't tell me you don't even remember your birthday? "
"My birthday?" Ling Dong's eyes widened instantly. He really couldn't remember!
"What? Did I remember wrongly? Isn't December 5th your birthday? "Ling Yuanshan was surprised.
"December 5th …" Ling Dong murmured, but his eyes were filled with complicated emotions. Birthday, this word was too distant for him. For him who bore the hatred of his past life, celebrating his birthday was a kind of extravagant behavior. Later on, he couldn't even remember the exact date!
"Why are you in a daze? Come and drink. Father wishes you a happy birthday!" Ling Yuanshan raised his cup again.
"Thank you, Father!" Ling Dong took a deep breath. Taking advantage of the time when he raised his head to drink, he wiped the tears from his eyes. Then, he got up and rushed to fill Ling Yuanshan's cup with wine!
"Father, look at my memory. I even mixed up your birthday with mine. You deserve a beating!" After pouring the wine, Ling Dong smiled shyly and asked shamelessly, "Father, when is your birthday exactly? I can't remember!"
"This child!" Ling Yuanshan smiled and pointed at Ling Dong. "July 21st!"
"July 21st!" Ling Dong nodded heavily and drank the wine in his cup. However, in his heart, he secretly thought that in this life, he must remember this date. He couldn't be like his previous life, where the only thing he remembered was his father's death anniversary!
The father and son sat in front of the fire pot and ate happily. During this time, Ling Yuanshan casually asked, "Dong Er, just now I saw Gao Yuan bring two jars of Marching Wine. You give me one and a half jars every month. Half a jar is too little for you. How about this, each of us can have one jar!"
"Father, it's not just two jars. There's a total of five jars!" With a light flick of his finger, three jars of Marching Wine appeared on the ground!
Ling Yuanshan self-deprecatingly slapped his forehead. "Ah, so many. I forgot that you also have a Storage Talisman!"
At the mention of the Storage Talisman, Ling Yuanshan suddenly revealed a mysterious look. He lowered his voice and asked Ling Dong, "Dong Er, the Storage Talisman that appeared at the auction a few days ago, were you the one who sold it?"
"At the auction?" Ling Dong was a little surprised. He didn't expect Kuixing Pavilion to put the Storage Talisman up for auction. "Yes, I was short of money a few days ago, so I disguised myself and sold a few! By the way, father, how much did you get at the auction? "
"Eight hundred thousand taels!" Ling Yuanshan smacked his lips.
Ling Dong heard this and stood up. "That's impossible. Ten Storage Talismans for eight hundred thousand taels of silver. Kuixing Pavilion suffered a great loss!" Ling Dong's ten Storage Talismans were worth a million taels of silver. There were also two Demonic Cores that were worth a hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver!
"Who said it was ten?" Ling Yuanshan was even more surprised. "Kuixing Pavilion only auctioned one Storage Talisman for eight hundred thousand taels of silver!"
"Just one!" Ling Dong's mouth was wide open. This was too f * cking exciting. He only sold one Storage Talisman to Kuixing Pavilion for a little over a hundred thousand taels of silver. Kuixing Pavilion suddenly increased the price by eight times!
"Yes, they only auctioned one Storage Talisman. Kuixing Pavilion also announced that they will auction another one at the end of this month. Kuixing Pavilion's auction seats have all been booked in advance!" Ling Yuanshan said.
"That Zi Yao is really a profiteer!" Ling Dong cursed angrily. Then, he returned to his normal state of mind. This thing was so attractive. If Ling Dong had chosen to auction it, he would have sold it for a sky-high price. However, he was afraid that he wouldn't have the life to spend the money.
Thinking of Zi Yao, Ling Dong suddenly remembered the Qian Kun Ring that he took from Zi Yao a few days ago. He had been hiding it in a secret compartment under his bed. He hadn't picked it up yet. He secretly reminded himself to open it after dinner to see if there were any treasures inside.
"You think you're at a disadvantage? As long as you're not found out! In the future, unless absolutely necessary, don't take this Storage Talisman out. You didn't see the scene at the auction. It was crazy! "Ling Yuanshan shook his head and said.
"Dad, I'll remember! By the way, dad, do you know what the Zuo Family's Clan Defining Combat Skill is? "Ling Dong suddenly asked.
"The Zuo Family's Clan Defining Combat Skill?" Ling Yuanshan frowned and thought for a while before answering, "The Zuo Family's ancestor hasn't fought for a long time. However, ten years ago, he had a fight with your grandfather. At that time, your grandfather was at a disadvantage. It is said that the Zuo Family's Clan Defining Combat Skill was used!"
"Grandfather was at a disadvantage? Is it a type of sound attack type combat skill? "Ling Dong asked.
Ling Yuanshan was stunned. "How do you know? That combat skill is called Soul Scare. It is a special Sound Attack Combat Skill. It doesn't have any direct lethality. However, it can directly affect people's thinking and disturb their mind. During a fight, if one's mind is disturbed, they will suffer a great loss! In the battle ten years ago, it was the Zuo Family's ancestor who suddenly used the Soul Intimidating Battle Skill. Before anyone could react, he had injured your grandfather with a palm strike! "
It was true!
After hearing his father's words, Ling Dong was even more certain that his judgment was correct!
After hesitating for a while, Ling Dong said, "Dad, according to what you said, Soul Scare can not only disturb people's mind during a fight, but it can also surprise them and win! Then, at the critical juncture of a person's closed door cultivation, it can also disturb the person's mind and cause them to fail in their breakthrough, or even be seriously injured! "
Ling Yuanshan picked up a piece of delicious mutton to his mouth. However, because of Ling Dong's words, he didn't eat it.
Gently putting down his chopsticks, Ling Yuanshan's expression became extremely serious. "Dong Er, what do you mean by that? Don't be evasive, speak clearly!" Ling Yuanshan also understood that Ling Dong's words had a hidden meaning.
Ling Dong didn't answer directly. Instead, he replied with a completely unrelated matter. "Dad, I received news that a member of the Ling family sent Zuo Family's Patriarch Zuo Xuancheng with a large gift and requested to see the Zuo Family's ancestor!"
Staring blankly for a moment, Ling Yuanshan suddenly stood up. His complexion suddenly became extremely unsightly: "Is what you said true? Is the source reliable? "
"Dad, don't worry. Sit down first and let me finish!" Ling Dong gestured. "The source of the news is absolutely reliable. You don't have to worry about that! However, that person didn't see the Zuo Family's ancestor because the Zuo Family's ancestor is also in closed door cultivation. It's uncertain when he will come out! "
Hearing this, Ling Yuanshan heaved a sigh of relief. "That's good!"
"Dad, you can tell, right? For all we know, someone wants to deal with Grandpa who is in closed door cultivation. Someone doesn't want Grandpa to break through to the Earth Realm! "Ling Dong said.
Ling Yuanshan glared at Ling Dong. "If even you can tell, how can I not? You didn't even finish your sentence. Why are you so surprised!"
"Heh, isn't it because you are too anxious?" Ling Dong smiled apologetically and asked again, "Dad, I want to know, what are the chances of Grandpa breaking through to the Earth Realm in this closed door cultivation?"
Hearing this question, Ling Yuanshan's mouth twitched. "Not even 30%! Four years ago, your Grandpa used up all of the family's wealth to bid for an Ice Lotus Tribulation Breaking Elixir that is specially used for breaking through bottlenecks. However, that Ice Lotus Tribulation Breaking Elixir is usually used for martial artists below the Earth Realm to break through bottlenecks! It's used as a supplementary elixir for breaking through to the Earth Realm, but it's not very useful! However, the family's wealth is limited. That's all we can do! "
"Not even 30%, but it's still possible!" In his previous life, Ling Dong didn't know much about the Ling family's affairs. He didn't even know about his Grandpa's failure to break through! From the looks of the current situation, someone might have done something!
"Oh right, Dad, can you contact the place where Grandpa is in closed door cultivation?" Ling Dong continued to ask.
Ling Yuanshan shook his head. "It's very difficult. The place where your Grandpa is in closed door cultivation has already been set up with a Broken Dragon Stone. Usually, a family elder takes turns to guard the place! Unless it's a matter of life and death for the family, no one is allowed to disturb him! Why are you asking this? "
"I'm thinking … if I can contact Grandpa, I might be able to help a little and increase his chances of breaking through!" Ling Dong said.
Ling Yuanshan was immediately delighted. "You little rascal, why didn't you say so earlier! It's not very difficult to contact your Grandpa. It's just a little troublesome. Every half a month, we have to send some dry food and water to your Grandpa through a reserved passage. "
After pausing for a moment, Ling Yuanshan asked again, "Hurry up and tell me, how are you going to help your Grandpa?"
Ling Dong shook his head and said, "Dad, I can't do that now! Oh right, Dad, I might have to go on a long trip soon. "
"For your Grandpa's matter?" Ling Yuanshan asked suspiciously.
Ling Dong nodded his head.

PS: Brothers, the recommendation ticket isn't very good! This is the second chapter! Zhu San's chapters are really close to 3K words! It's not the kind where 6K words are split into three chapters and three chapters!
Also, some brothers might feel that this chapter is a little weak! Actually, in Zhu San's opinion, novels aren't just about fighting and killing. There's also life. That's what a person is!
