Chapter 866 The Ling Family Today
Chapter 866
Northwest Meteorite City, this is a remote and backward city.
But such a city relies on the famous mountains in the northwest, the Huangcong Mountains.
There are many resources in the Huangcong Mountains, but there are many spirit beasts, and even the strongest of the Tianzun rank do not dare to go deep.
This also caused Meteorite City to be unable to dig out resources even if it had resources, so this backward dilemma cannot be changed for the time being.
However, this situation is only relative to ten years ago.
Now the Ling family is the only one in Meteorite City, and several kings have emerged from the Ling family, which has made Meteorite City famous, and has also hooked up with the Purple Sky Sect. Every time the Purple Sky Sect selects disciples, there will be fifteen members of the Ling family. The number of places, was sent to campaign.
With the strong rise of the Ling family, many resources of the Ling family have been excavated from the barren mountains. Those third- and fourth-tier spirit grasses and spirit beasts are auctioned at auctions from time to time, which has attracted some big lords in the surrounding cities. Can't resist coming to bid on these things.
With the frequent flow of outsiders, Meteorite City has changed from normal and has become one of the wealthy cities under the jurisdiction of Zitianzong, and the Ling family has also become the first family under the jurisdiction of Zitianzong.
Regardless of whether others are convinced or not, just because the Ling family has one of the youngest elders sitting in Zitianzong is enough to make the Ling family look down on other cities.
Now there is not only the Supreme Elder Wang Jie in the Ling family.
Apart from the elder Taishang who traveled and went out, the number one master of the Ling family is Ling Zhan, who is the cousin of the current patriarch Ling Yuan.
Ten years ago, he suddenly jumped from the spiritual rank to the middle king rank, and it took less than three years to become the high rank king, and four years ago he was even the peak king rank.
In recent years, not many people have seen him walk around, and it is said that he has become an existence of the emperor rank.
In the northwest, the Dihuang rank is already a top-level existence. If Ling Zhan really reaches this stage, the first family within the Purple Sky Sect will truly deserve its name.
As for the second master, it was Ling Zhan's wife Meng Xiyun.
But she has never made a move, and no one would have thought that she is now a peak king.
People outside only know that the second master of the Ling family is the father of Ling Zhan, Ling Cang, the old patriarch of the Ling family, with the strength of a middle-ranked king, followed by the previous elder Ling Chen, the peak strength of a low-ranked king, and the current patriarch Ling Yuan. Low-level king-level strength.
Counting now, the Ling family does not include the Supreme Elder Ling He and Ling Xiao, and the Ling family has the strength of five or more kings.
Such a strength is indeed enough to be proud of one side.
Outside the management scope of Meteorite City, no one dared to offend members of the Ling family, and the Ling family also managed Meteorite City in an orderly manner, making it more and more prosperous.
The Ling family became stronger and stronger, and the land occupied by its mansion also became wider.
Inside the Ling family compound, there was an elegant and quiet courtyard, where a charming and beautiful woman was holding a few pieces of fresh meat and throwing it at a three-meter-high black bear.
"Xiao Hei, eat some meat pads to pad your stomach first, your appetite is getting bigger and bigger, if you continue like this, you will have to find something to eat yourself," the woman said with a loving expression on her face.
She looked at this burly black bear as kindly as she looked at her own relatives, but there was a hint of unspeakable worry and longing in her beautiful eyes.
Could it be Ling Xiao's mother, Meng Xiyun, or someone else who looked like a charming woman in her thirties.
And the big black bear in front of him is the cub that Ling Xiao personally gave birth to a mother bear when he was practicing in the barren mountain range.
The little black in the past has now become a big guy.
It is just an ordinary spirit beast, and even though it is fed by the beast pill, it is still only a low-level spirit beast of the fourth rank. It may not be easy to break through the bottleneck of the fifth rank, since its bloodline is too ordinary.
Xiao Hei devoured the big pieces of fresh meat, then swayed his huge body to Meng Xiyun's, licking Meng Xiyun's hand with his big tongue, seeming to be incomparably kissable.
Meng Xiyun caressed Xiao Hei's forehead with her backhand and sighed, "Hey, you're the only big stupid bear who stays here with me all day long."
Her husband went out to practice, and her son went to the central region without knowing the situation. She was not the one to take care of her grandson, so he was often bored in the yard alone. Apart from practicing, he was dealing with Xiao Hei, which made her life extremely monotonous and dull.
With her strength, Ling Yuan once invited her to join the Presbyterian Church, but she was born not wanting to show her face, so she could only choose to live like this.
At this moment, a breaking wind came from far away, followed by a loud voice, "Ma'am, I'm back!".
A figure shining with golden light dashed from the sky, the speed and momentum were unexpectedly extraordinary.
When the voice just fell, the golden shadow had already stood beside Meng Xiyun.
This man looked to be in his thirties, with sharp edges and corners, resolute lines, and strong eyes. There were many damages on his capable military uniform, but none of them hurt the vitals. He was carrying a bunch of golden spears. , with an excited look on his face, obviously something happy happened to him.
Isn't this person Ling Xiao's father Ling Zhan?
Now his aura has reached the peak of a low-level emperor, and his blood is particularly strong. It seems that he has gained a lot in the past ten years!
Meng Xiyun only glanced at her husband, and replied very boringly, "I'll be back when I come back, why are you yelling, I'm not afraid that the elder brother and the third younger brother will rush over to ask you for something again!".
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the hall briskly.
Looking at Meng Xiyun's situation, Ling Zhan naturally knew that his wife was angry. It took him half a year to practice this time, so it's no wonder his wife wasn't angry.
Ling Zhan hurriedly followed and said with a smile, "Xiyun, look what I brought back for you. This is the fourth-level middle-level green star flower and the fourth-level high-level pan lotus vine, which I found with great difficulty. They are very useful for your cultivation." Useful!".
Every time Ling Zhan went out, he never forgot to bring back good things for his wife, otherwise he wouldn't even think about sleeping in his wife's bed at night.
Previously, Meng Xiyun would forgive Ling Zhan after taking something, but this time she didn't do that, she didn't take the spirit grass that Ling Zhan handed over.
"What else is there in life other than cultivation? It doesn't matter if my son isn't around, and even my husband is a cultivator. What's the point of living a lonely life like a widow!" Meng Xiyun sighed.
For some reason, today she misses her son and grandson very much. How much she hopes that now she is full of children and grandchildren, and the family lives happily.
She would rather live with her relatives by her side in just a hundred years, rather than spend hundreds of years without her husband, children and grandchildren by her side, living alone in an empty house.
Ling Zhan was in a hurry, he was a henpecked master, he quickly put away the spirit grass and followed behind Meng Xiyun, after entering the hall, he signaled the busy maids in the hall to go out, he hugged her tightly Meng Xiyun said, "Xiyun, how about...how about we have another child? This will make you feel less lonely!".
In fact, Ling Zhan had this idea long ago. He knew his wife's character. If no one was by her side, her life would indeed be unhappy. In the clan, she didn't have many close friends. His father There is no need for her to serve there.
Therefore, he thought it better to have another child for his wife, which might make his wife really happy.
After hearing her husband's words, Meng Xiyun's beautiful eyes lit up, but she immediately turned down and said, "This is impossible, we already have a grandson named Tian'er, and if another child is born, it will be completely messed up, no...absolutely not !”.
"This...they are not together, shouldn't it matter!" Ling Zhan didn't think about this, and became a little embarrassed for a while.
If they had one more child, and their grandson was older than their own, the relationship would be messed up!
"What are you talking about? When Xiao'er comes back, we will definitely live together. I still hope that Xiao'er can find more wives and give me more grandchildren." Meng Xiyun rolled her eyes at Ling Zhan road.
To be honest, Ling Zhan's proposal did move her a little bit, but she restrained her thoughts more rationally.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, I don't know when that brat will come back, maybe something happened..." Ling Zhan replied helplessly.
Before he finished speaking, Meng Xiyun turned back and thumped his chest and said, "You have a dark mouth, if you talk a little longer, you don't want to sleep in my bed from now on. You are smart, you will definitely be lucky, and you will be safe and sound."
Speaking of this, Ling Zhan also showed a bit of emotion, and secretly said in his heart, "When this brat comes back, I will punish you for this crime of unfilial piety!".
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world. With their children away, which parent doesn't want them to live a peaceful and happy life.
At this time, a maid's voice came from outside, "Master, the patriarch and Elder Tao are here!".
"I've said it all, as soon as you come back, they must have followed," Meng Xiyun gave Ling Zhan a blank look.
Ling Zhan smiled dryly and said, "You tell the eldest brother and the third brother to wait, I will wash and change clothes first, and then I will come out to see them."
Ling Yuan and Ling Tao are Ling Zhan's elder brother and third younger brother respectively. The relationship between the three brothers has always been good, but after the birth of Ling Zhan's son, the relationship between them has become closer.
Because their current strength is thanks to his nephew, otherwise they wouldn't have the prestige they have today.
They came to see Ling Zhan now, of course they knew that Ling Zhan must have found a lot of good things when he came back from training, so they came here early to "rob".
"Brother, you came here so fast, third brother!" Meng Xiyun greeted the two with a smile.
The two were not angry when they heard Meng Xiyun's teasing intention.
Ling Yuan smiled lightly and said, "Second sister, don't blame me, who said that the second brother is powerful, and I also want to develop the clan, so I can only seek some benefits from him with a cheeky face."
"Sister-in-law, third brother, I just want to break through the king rank earlier, so I can only rely on second brother's help." Ling Tao smiled roguely.
