Chapter 217 Foreign Princes Came to Dahan Country
Seeing Ling Qinglan was happy, Ling Li smiled. Ling Qinglan didn’t like the Yinmo Cult for a long time. But now, he cared about the Yinmo Cult most.
After all, when he became Qinghu of the Yinmo Cult, there were lots of excellent people in the cult, but the cult was in a mess. However, it was in perfect order under his arrangement.
What Ling Li studied in his previous life was all the personal means that he could use all by himself. He could live well in the Real Spiritual Circle. But he couldn’t manage a big cult. There were lots of limitations.
Ling Qinglan studied military tactics from his father since he was a child. What’s more, he showed his talent for it early. Although the Yi Family was destroyed early, he was secretly adopted by the Ling Family. At that time, his Second Uncle intended to let him manage military affairs and give advice and suggestions for wars. However, he chose the Supreme Judiciary. On the one hand, he did that for the sake of the Yinmo Cult. On the other hand, the deeper reason why he did that was for the sake of the Yi Family.
No one was perfect. So was Ling Li. He couldn’t compare with Ling Qinglan in managing a cult. He knew that. But he was superior to Ling Qinglan in martial arts and evaluating people. It was in the Yinmo Cult.
“Qinglan, take these things.”
Ling Li gave several rolls of files to Ling Qinglan. Ling Qinglan took them in shock. He had a glance at them and quickly closed them. He said with calmness, “I know. I will settle the matter appropriately without impulse.”
The contents of the files were the same as those Mr. Li gave him. They were all related to the wife of Chen Gong. But he didn’t let Ling Li know that he had got the news for a long time. Otherwise… with the attitude Ling Li had towards Su Li, Ling Li would be hostile to Mr. Li.
By that time, if Mr. Li was in trouble, he would have a hard time.
Ling Li didn’t notice that Ling Qinglan didn’t behave as usual. No matter how big the matter was, Ling Qinglan could keep calm, which was quite similar to Ling Mo whose face was cold like a coffin.
After Ling Qinglan and Ling Mo left with assignments, Ling Li leaned on his wheelchair and rubbed his glabella. There were many things to think about recently.
Ling Xian cleaned away the messy files on the table lightly and poured a cup of Ling Li’s favorite tea for him. The tea was from the tree that master cultivated after he searched all over the country in his early years. Only he could understand its taste as he usually said.
Now this tea tree was in the back yard of the Yinmo Cult’s headquarter. It was planted by several old farmers who were good at planting. It could produce lots of tea leaves every year.
Ling Li smelt the fragrance and looked relaxed. He opened his eyes slightly and saw Ling Xian was busy. He was silent for a moment and said, “Ling Xian, is there something that you didn’t tell me?”
As soon as Ling Li finished his words, the warm atmosphere disappeared immediately. Ling Xian felt hopeless and dismal.
He finally asked her. What would happen if she told him the truth…
She remembered that on the ship, master, who never showed his real affection, was angry at Mr. Li just because Mr. Li said some defiant words. What she did undoubtedly violated his principles.
From the beginning, she knew that what she did would deteriorate their relationship. However, she couldn’t stand that the master loved another girl not her. She had already accompanied him for 10 years…
“Master.”
Ling Xian’s eyes reddened and she lowered her head and said, “I did hide something to you. It was not right that I delayed the affairs of our cult and went out privately these days. But, I heard the news of my biological parents recently. I…”
Ling Li was in surprise and breathed a sigh of relief. He said, “I see. You don’t have to investigate personally. You can ask the servants in the Tianya House to investigate.”
Ling Xian shook her head and was close to crying. She said in a low voice, “Recently, the Tianya House is so busy. I didn’t dare to delay the business. They discarded me before, which made me meet you. I don’t hate them, but I don’t want to see them. I just want to get a glimpse of them from a distance. That’s enough.”
Ling Xian was sincere and Ling Li didn’t doubt her. If what Ling Xian said was true, it was pardonable that she peeped at her parents and didn’t want to be followed by others.
After all, she was the holy girl in the Yinmo Cult and the symbol of holiness. If she showed her weakness, it would reduce the stateliness of the Yinmo Cult.
“Tell Ling Mo where your parents live and ask him to dispatch servants to protect them. After all, they are your biological parents. Don’t hide this kind of thing to me later.”
Ling Li’s voice was low and gentle. Ling Xian felt warm and she nodded. She had already found people to pretend to be her biological parents. She finally managed to convince him.
“What is Su Li doing recently?”
Ling Li suddenly spoke and it was really in time. Ling Xian was close to blurting out Su Li’s activities in these days. But she immediately realized and said in a low voice, “I am leaving to ask Ling Qinglan for her news.”
Seeing Ling Xian leave, Ling Li’s last suspicion also disappeared. He really didn’t want to test Ling Xian with this method, but if he didn’t try it, he couldn’t feel relieved.
It was difficult to guess at the girl’s mind. Ling Xue was a good example. He had already let her take charge of the Ling Family and he became a mercenary to have his own life. However, she still wanted to kill him… Why? He thought it in the previous life and he also thought it for 10 years in this life. He was also puzzled.
Ling Xian closed the door gently and walked out of the yard. She saw nobody around her and then squatted down with tears welling up from her eyes.
Eight years ago—
The little girl shook the childe’s sleeves and asked curiously, “Master, what kind of girl do you like?”
“Well… Let me think about it. Maybe she is gentle and not obstinate. I don’t want to spend my life with a moody woman again in this life.”
For Ling Li’s words, Ling Xian took a small fan and studied etiquette. She served Ling Li and tried her best to become the girl he loved. Su Li was obstinate and moody. But Ling Li loved her.
Ling Xian was beside him but he… turned a blind eye to her.
Ling Xian covered her chest and took a breath. She was broken-hearted. She had waited for 10 years and she did not reconcile herself to this result. The childe changed. He never let personal things affect the matters of the cult before, but now he was close to killing Mr. Li who was beneficial to their cult because of Su Li!
Su Li was a scourge!
Ling Xian stopped crying and calmed herself down. She wiped her tears and operated genuine energy. The swelling around her eyes faded away. Her face became normal and dark flashed through her eyes.
In most cases, the childe decided the matters of the Yinmo Cult. But if his decisions were bad for the cult, she could take full advantage of them…
Three days later, princes of Tianji Country and Nanjiang Country arrived in Yunjing City on the same day to visit the emperor with a written statement. It seemed that they had a deal to come in the same time
Since the princes of the two countries came to Dahan Country, the emperor paid much attention to them. He dispatched Hu Dadan to greet them and let them live in the National Guest House. Royal Guards protected the diplomatic corps and countless gifts in the Zhongtan Road like they did in the last two days.
At the same time, countless intelligence organizations of many forces tried their best to collect the information about the two countries’ princes.
“The Forth Prince and the Sixth Princess of the Wei Family of the Nanjiang Country came. They are called Wei Youran and Wei Zhenzhen!”
“One prince of the Tianji Country came. We are not well-informed in Tianji Country. We don’t know his name and rank.”
After reading the file sent by Qu Lu, Su Li was lost in thought. They visited Dahan Country on the surface for friendship, but they came here for the Full Moon and Heart Strings which would be sold at the Auction Fair.
Su Li did not expect that the Full Moon and Heart Strings was so attractive. It was not precious in the Real Spiritual Circle. Every sect had lots of treasures of the Immortals’ Place which were more precious than the Full Moon and Heart Strings.
But now, she realized that she lived in the secular world and few people in the martial arts circle could enter the Real Spiritual Circle. The fighting capacity of an extremity warrior of the inborn realm who had Full Moon and Heart Strings of the Immortals’ Place was not so inferior to that of the longevity realm. When they fought with the normal extremity warrior of the inborn realm, they could defeat the enemies within 10 movements!
For every sect and every family force, it must be a deterrent! But the Dongfang Family would sell it…
Su Li was stunned. The meaning of this matter made her scared.
