Chapter 128 The Shocked Ling Cang (Part 2)
Thank you, please ask my brother to give a reward. Don’t keep everyone’s tickets and Huahua, give some to Chunjie, thank you!
Ling Cang said with his hands behind his back, "The ancestors have long remembered that there was a third-grade alchemy master in our Ling family more than 800 years ago. At that time, our Ling family was the most glorious day in Meteorite City. At that time it rose up, and all the big and small families wanted to curry favor with our Ling family, our Ling family was so powerful at that time, but now it is gradually declining."
"Grandpa, don't be discouraged, I believe that under the leadership of grandpa, the family will be able to reproduce its glory," Ling Xiao comforted.
"I thought so too at first, but grandpa is getting old and unable to do what he wants, so Xiaoer, you are the hope of the new generation of our Ling family. As a pharmacist, you can definitely revive the prestige of the Ling family." Ling Cang patted Ling Xiao said very kindly on the shoulder, his old eyes were full of longing.
"Grandpa, you think too highly of me. To be honest, I'm not interested in elders and patriarchs. I feel tired watching you and the second elders fight back and forth." Ling smiled and replied, paused and asked "Yes." Has there been any movement from them recently?".
"Xiao'er, you don't need to pay attention to these things. Grandpa has his own opinion. How many people still know about your becoming a pharmacist?" Ling Cang asked.
"As far as you know".
"That's good, this matter should not be made public for the time being, and it will not be too late when you break through to the level of a spiritual master, and you must not show your space ring in front of outsiders, you know?" Ling Cang asked.
"Xiao'er knows," Ling Xiao replied.
The trees are beautiful in the forest, but the wind will destroy them.
Every man is innocent, but he is guilty of his own crime.
Ling Xiao understood this truth.
"Xiao'er, you must be careful this time, I don't think the Li family will let go of the chance to deal with you," Ling Cang warned.
"Xiao'er knows," Ling Xiao replied. In fact, he didn't take it seriously in his heart. Could it be that there will be masters of the spiritual master class in the Li family? Below the rank of spiritual master, he can kill in seconds, not because he is talking big.
So, after the grandfather and grandson talked in secret for a while, Ling Xiao left and went back.
Looking at Ling Xiao's majestic figure, Ling Cang sighed softly, "The future of the Ling family is up to you."
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and the big family competition day finally arrived.
In the square in the middle of the market, six arenas have been funded by the three major families for the elimination competition, and the arena cut out of rocks in the middle is reserved for the final ten competitions. of.
Early in the morning, the surrounding area of the ring was already full of people.
The scene at this moment can only be described in eight words-the sound of gongs and drums, and the sound of people!
There are a total of 150 people participating in this competition, and 30 people in each ring will draw lots to determine their opponents.
The rules of the competition are very simple, the loser is the one who admits defeat, abstains or falls off the ring.
Since the martial arts competition will use weapons to do their best, it is inevitable to be disabled during the fight, but no killers are allowed. Each arena will be strictly guarded by deacons sent by the three major families.
If someone starts to kill in a martial arts competition, he will be captured and killed.
After all, those who compete in the arena are all the leaders of each family, and no one wants the new generation of family pillars to die unexpectedly.
As time passed, the heads and elders of the major families brought their younger generations into the competition venue.
For a while, the people around started talking again.
"Look, the heads of the Xue family and the Qin family are here."
"Four years ago, both the Xue family and the Qin family were in the top fifteen."
"The Zhong family has also come over there, and the leader of the team is actually their previous elder."
...
Some small families entered the arena one after another to choose their positions.
These positions are determined by the rankings determined four years ago, and no one can stand randomly.
It didn't take long before the competition venue was full of people from all the major families. It was really crowded and lively.
"Look, it's someone from the Lan family."
"Lan Jianren led the team himself. He was one of the top ten masters in the previous session. He was a low-level Xuanshi at that time. His current strength should be more refined."
"In recent years, the strength of the Lan family has increased greatly, and they are expected to take a step forward this year."
"Look, it's Li...Tianhao, one of the top five masters in the previous session."
"Four years have passed, and this year he is the most popular candidate for the leader."
"Ling Feng from the Ling family is also here, this time there is a good show to watch."
"No, the shocking battle between Li Tianhao and Ling Feng is still unforgettable to this day. I don't know who will die this time, I really can't tell."
"Don't forget there are brothers from the Luo family, they are here too"
Just after the representatives of all the families arrived, eight figures rushed towards the high platform from eight different directions.
For a moment, everyone exclaimed.
Eight old men appeared on the high platform, and standing in the middle were Ling Cang, the head of the Ling family, Li Qianzhong, the head of the Li family, and Luo Xiangming, the head of the Luo family.
The other five are the patriarchs of other small and medium-sized families and the elders of the previous generation. Each of them has unfathomable strength, at least above the level of spiritual masters, otherwise they are not qualified to sit side by side with the patriarchs of the three major families.
The Patriarch of the Lan Family, Lan Zhenfeng, sat next to Li Qianzhong, cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Brother Li, this year's leader is none other than your Li Family." Lan Zhenfeng flattered Li Qianzhong, as if to demonstrate to Ling Cang at the side
"Hehe, Brother Lan is exaggerating." Li Qianzhong responded modestly, but his old eyes were full of arrogance. It seemed that he was bound to win the position of leader this time.
Li Qianzhong and Lan Zhenfeng talked in public, which was to convey a message that their Li family and Lan family had indeed formed an alliance.
At this time, Luo Xiangming, the head of the Luo family, turned his old eyes, and then smiled at Ling Cang who was beside him, "Brother Ling, when are you going to come to our Luo family to propose marriage!".
Luo Xiangming's words are really endless!
Li Qianzhong and Lan Zhenfeng almost froze their tongues when they heard this, and the representatives of the small and medium families beside them also looked shocked.
What does it mean if the Ling family and the Luo family form an alliance?
If two of the three major families form an alliance, I'm afraid it will cause a major earthquake in Meteorite City!
Even Ling Cang himself was taken aback, and immediately asked inexplicably, "Brother Luo, what do you mean?".
"Brother Ling, don't you know that your Ling Xiao and my granddaughter Shuang'er are in love with each other? My Shuang'er said she wouldn't marry Ling Xiao, so don't you think Ling Xiao looks down on my Luo family?" Luo Xiangming said with a frown .
"Brother Luo, what you said is serious. Xiao'er has always been independent, and he was taught by the elders. I rarely interfere with his affairs. I really don't know what's going on between him and your granddaughter." Ling Cang quickly responded, He was very surprised!
He really didn't expect his grandson Ling Xiao to hook up with all the granddaughters of the Luo family. As long as the Ling family and the Luo family get married, all internal problems will be solved.
"Brother Ling, you know now, why don't you express your opinion?" Luo Xiangming asked lightly.
Li Qianzhong on the side is so angry! He asked his grandson to propose marriage to the Luo family, but the Luo family rejected it. It turned out that the Luo family had taken a fancy to the Ling family, and he was the brat he hated the most.
"Well, you Luo Xiangming, when the Ling family is destroyed, your Luo family won't have to hang around in Meteorite City any more," Li Qianzhong said inwardly.
Ling Cang laughed and said, "Brother Luo, you've already said that. If I, Ling Cang, refused, wouldn't it be too ignorant. I'll send someone to dowry when the competition is over."
"Shuang'er is my favorite granddaughter, you can't take this gift lightly," Luo Xiangming said with a smile.
"It's natural," Ling Cang replied with a smile while pinching his beard.
At this moment, two more figures came up from below.
"We shouldn't be late, right?" A clear voice came from one mouth.
All of a sudden, the three major clans on the high platform and the other five people stood up to welcome the visitors.
There were two old men who came, one was wearing a light yellow robe, his body was slightly fat, and he had a Hexi smile on his face, giving people a kind of approachable feeling. He was the one who spoke just now; while the other old man in a gray robe On the other hand, he has an indifferent face, is extremely tall and thin, and stands out from the crowd a little bit.
"Master Li, Master Yuan" the three chiefs of the family called together with the other five people.
The only ones who could make these three patriarchs welcome together were Li Kong, the master craftsman of Meteorite City, and Yuan Ping, the mysterious second-rank pharmacist of Lingcao Hall.
After Li Kong and Yuan Ping returned their salutes to everyone, Li Kong walked up to Ling Cang and clapped his hands, "I've wanted to visit Brother Ling for a long time. After the competition, I will go to the house to ask for a drink. Brother Ling doesn't mind."
Li Kong spoke a little loudly, and everyone on the high platform could hear them clearly.
Everyone is even more frightened!
Li Kong is the only refining master in Meteorite City, and his status can be equal to the patriarchs of the three major families. Before that, the three major families all threw out favors to Li Kong, hoping that Li Kong could become their worship elder. It's a pity that Li Kong didn't like restraint and refused one by one. However, he still made good friends with the three major families and remained neutral. It had never been heard that he favored any one of them, but now he showed his favor to Ling Cang in the hall, which surprised everyone.
If Li Kong really has a special friendship with the Ling family, then the Ling family's prestige will be greatly enhanced in the future, and the position of the chief of the three major families will become unbreakable, even the Li Lan family will not dare to think about it.
You must know that although Li Kong is only one person, his appeal is quite amazing.
All of a sudden, everyone's minds became active, and representatives of some medium and small families were looking for ways to build up some relationship with the Ling family.
Ling Cang himself didn't understand what was going on, and Luo Xiangming's stance to him was justified, but with Li Kong's temperament, he never sold it to anyone, why did he change his nature now?
However, Ling Cang didn't think much about it, and immediately responded with a smile, "Master Li can come to sit at the mansion, and Ling Cang will naturally sweep the couch to welcome us. Our Ling family doesn't have many other things, but there are still a lot of good wines that have been preserved for hundreds of years. ".
"That's great. By the way, Xiao'er will participate in the competition today. I'll wait to see if he can make it into the top five." Li Kong asked.
"It's about Xiaoer again?" Ling Cang's heart trembled, and he immediately asked softly, "Master Li knows my useless grandson?".
"Hehe, speaking of it, I would like to thank Xiao'er. If he hadn't saved my son, I would have sent a white-haired man to a black-haired man. He is the benefactor of our family, and I even let him recognize me as a grandfather Brother Ling, don't you mind?" Li Kong said with a smile.
"Li...Master Li, do you want Xiao'er to recognize you as a godfather?" Ling Cang asked back somewhat at a loss.
"What, don't tell me Brother Ling looks down on me, Li Kong!" Li Kong said solemnly.
"No...Of course not, this is something you can only wish for!" Ling Cang hurriedly waved his hands in response, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
His grandson really surprised him more and more, the future of the Ling family will rise because of him.
