"You've all chosen, right?" As Ling Dong's somewhat cold voice sounded in the meeting hall, the tribesmen standing on the left side seemed a little embarrassed, and some people even looked around, feeling quite uneasy.
Ling Dong looked sharply at the tribesmen on the left. Even with the high-ranking officials of the Ling family acting like an example, standing on the left wanting to keep the tribesmen who were unwilling to leave, they still accounted for nearly half.
After being looked at by Ling Dong's sharp gaze, some tribesmen immediately lowered their heads with guilt, but the leaders, Ling Qiang and Ling Yuming, puffed up their chests slightly, and their meaning was very clear.
"It's really time for the family to rectify..." This sentence flashed through Ling Dong's mind. Ling Dong understood the thoughts of these people, but they all had one thing in common, selfishness.
It's too heavy, or it's just for fun.
For example, Ling Yuming is the representative of the Ling family who is greedy for pleasure and cannot live without fine clothing and food. He is already sixteen years old. Under such powerful training conditions provided by the Ling family, his cultivation has just broken through to the innate first level.
If it had been more than ten years ago, at this age and with this level of cultivation, he would have been considered a genius of the Ling family. But now, when the material conditions for the cultivation of the Ling family's children have improved dozens or hundreds of times, they are just waste among wastes.
.
More than ten years ago, for one pill a month, only the elders could enter the lowest level of Yuan Gathering Formation to practice. Even the elders could only get a few pieces of spiritual crystals per year.
Now, for example, direct descendants can apply for three pills a day for cultivation, and the pills needed to break through the ranks at any time from the family.
Direct disciples. Every moment of cultivation can be practiced in the corresponding Juyuan Formation. As long as the cultivation level reaches the innate level, one low-grade spiritual crystal will be given one piece per day. This number will also increase with the increase of cultivation level. Which one in Tiangang Continent should be placed?
The family is all luxurious.
Moreover, they have systematic cultivation techniques that are dozens or hundreds of times better than the previous tribesmen. The main technique was obtained by Ling Dong from the Ten Thousand Methods Tower of the Suzaku Star Lord's Mansion.
This has something to do with the fact that there are not too many members of the Ling family. It also has to do with the surge in wealth of the Ling family.
In Ling Dong's words, under such superior conditions, even a pig can break through the innate level in three or four years. But this Ling Yuming started practicing at the age of seven or eight, and now he is only at the first level of innate level?
However, this Ling Yuming is not the most hateful one, the most hateful thing is Ling Qiang, who represents some of the outstanding disciples of the clan.
Ling Qiang is four years younger than Ling Dong and is one of the most promising members of the younger generation of the Ling family. With the family's vigorous training, his cultivation has now reached the fourth level of the Tiangang Realm.
If one throws away the dazzling brilliance of people like Ling Dong and Bai Shaokui, then among the young generation in today's Gang Continent, Ling Qiang is the leader. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the leader of the young generation in the mainland.
But sadly, this kind of achievement that makes others envious has fueled their ambitions, which is why they made the decision to stay today.
Ling Yuanshan mentioned this matter in his letters home a few years ago.
Because the Ling family is as rich as any other country, although they dare not say that they have all the power in the world, there is still no problem with the entire Yaoguang Empire having power. Moreover, with the firm support of the Zhen Gang Sect behind it, almost all the top military forces in the world are between the Ling family and the Zhen Gang.
In the Gangmen.
Therefore, the young people in the clan have the idea of independence. To put it bluntly, they don’t want to be trapped in the framework of the family anymore. They want the family to rise up the empire from generation to generation. Become a royal family and then unify the continent. At that time.
Even if it is not their turn to be the emperor, it is a matter of course for them to be crowned kings and marquises.
At that time, Ling Dong gave his father a very definite answer. This kind of thing must never be done. Because throughout the history of the mainland, there are thousands of aristocratic families, but there are very few thousand-year-old royal families. As long as the status of the royal family is not guaranteed, they will immediately
The family was wiped out!
Besides, wouldn't it be better to hide behind the scenes and control the situation of a country?
Now, the family suddenly wants to evacuate Tiangang Continent as a whole. Ling Dong is very clear about their confusion and reluctance, and this kind of reluctance, Ling Dong is ten times and a hundred times stronger than them.
Because the current powerful Ling family was built by Ling Dong with his own hands. Only Ling Dong knew how uncomfortable it felt to give up the achievements he had created with his own hands.
However, the reason why people like Ling Qiang are so determined to stay is not because they are reluctant to leave their family and cannot leave their homeland, but because they want to take advantage of the opportunity to make things happen.
Otherwise, they would not have ignored the persuasion of Ling Tieshan, Ling Xuefeng and other senior family members and insisted on going their own way. On the contrary, they were even happier when these old guys from the family left.
Not only because they have lost the constraints, but also because once the top leaders of the family leave, they can completely claim the throne, and the throne they seize will truly belong to their young descendants.
They were completely considering their own selfish desires and did not consider their family at all. As for the generous and luxurious monthly income, they had become accustomed to it and took it for granted.
Ling Dong felt that after he established a foothold in the Central Town Star Territory this time, he would have to work hard on family matters.
"Now that you have chosen, I hope your choice is correct!" Ling Dong said lightly. At this time, Ling Dong suddenly noticed a wave of soul.
When he turned around, he found that the source was the anxious-looking Great Elder Ling Xuefeng. Opposite him, his precious great-grandson Ling Yuming, stubbornly turned his head to the side. It should be the Great Elder who was sending messages to persuade his great-grandson.
.
Seeing this situation, Ling Dong felt like laughing. It seemed that the clan members who had experienced the dramatic family changes more than ten years ago still had good memories.
"Oh, by the way, the reason. Since you have chosen to obey the family's orders, I should also tell you the reason." Ling Dong turned around and said to the clan members who stood on the right and chose to obey. As he spoke, he glanced at Ling Qiang on the left,
Ling Yuming and others said: "Originally, they are not qualified to hear the reason for the family's evacuation, but for the sake of their pity, we will let them hear it."
"Pity?" Upon hearing this word, Ling Qiang's expression changed, but Ling Yuming raised his chin high, while the Great Elder Ling Xuefeng's expression changed drastically.
But standing on the right were Ling Tieshan, Ling Zibai, Ling Leer and other representatives who chose to obey, but a vague sense of victory arose in their hearts.
"The reason is very simple. There is a powerful enemy from the outside that is difficult to resist and is determined to destroy our Ling family. Therefore, we must evacuate to ensure safety!"
After Ling Dong announced the reason, a sharp contrast instantly formed in the Ling family meeting hall.
The tribesmen standing on the right who chose to obey looked a little heavy, but they all looked at Ling Dong silently. The ones on the left immediately made a fuss when they heard Ling Dong's reason.
"Strong enemies from the outside? Swearing to exterminate our Ling family? Brother, are you just making assumptions out of thin air?" Ling Qiang finally couldn't help but asked, while the clan member on the left who chose to stay looked like he was listening.
"All matters here are left to Dong'er! Oh, by the way, you won't forget the position of Ling Dong's young patriarch, right?"
Suddenly, Ling Yuanshan stood up and interjected, making the clan member on the left look even more ugly. At the same time, Ling Yuanshan said to Ling Dong, "Dong'er, when are you going to set off? Let me know. I'll go find the ancestor first and let him know."
Make preparations too!" After saying that, Ling Yuanshan left.
Ling Yuanshan's words once again cast a shadow over the hearts of the tribesmen on the left, such as Ling Qiang, Ling Yuming and others! Because according to what Ling Yuanshan said, even the ancestor of the Ling family, Ling Yuefeng, had to evacuate?
Moreover, Ling Yuanshan's words also reminded Ling Qiang, including Ling Yuming, of an order issued by his ancestor more than ten years ago: except Ling Dong, there is no other person in the Ling family who can succeed as the patriarch!
"Making assumptions about powerful enemies out of thin air? Are you doubting whether my mind is normal? Or is there something wrong with your mind?" Ling Dong scolded mercilessly with a very cold expression.
Ling Dong's public rebuke made Ling Qiang's face turn red, but Ling Qiang still asked with dissatisfaction: "Brother, how could our Ling family provoke powerful enemies from the outside out of thin air? As far as I know, the Ling family
Are you the only one who has left Tiangang Continent and is walking in the outside world?"
As soon as Ling Qiang said this, all the Ling family members present looked at Ling Dong. Ling Qiang's question was on point.
Ling Dong's eyes were cold at first, and then he suddenly revealed a smile that chilled people's hearts: "Yes, this powerful enemy was provoked by me, Ling Dong."
Hearing Ling Dong's answer, Ling Qiang became more energetic: "Brother, you have brought such a powerful enemy to the family. Even if you are the young patriarch, you should give the family an explanation, right?"
"explain?"
"Pah, pah, pah!"
The figure flashed up, and loud slaps resounded in the meeting hall. Within a few breaths, there were nearly a hundred slaps.
"Beasts have forgotten their roots!" With a loud slap, the elder Ling Xuefeng's roar instantly stunned the Ling family members. Even his great-grandson Ling Yuming, who he always loved, looked at the great-grandfather who looked like a crazy lion in extreme horror.
He was fanning Ling Qiang wildly, even if it caused blood to fly from the corner of his mouth.
"Explain, I'm here to give you an explanation, you forget your roots! Bang!"
"Without Ling Dong, the Ling family would have been wiped out long ago. How would you be where you are today?"
"Without Ling Dong, you wouldn't be able to knock out a bottle of pills a year, and you wouldn't be able to receive ten spiritual crystals a year. Let alone the fourth level of the Tiangang Realm, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to reach the Earthly Evil Realm now!"
"Without Ling Dong's intimidation and face, how would you be qualified to marry the princess of the Yaoguang Empire?"
"Without Ling Dong, how could you be so majestic when you go out and be surrounded by people?"
However, the elder Ling Xuefeng became more and more angry as he beat him, and slapped him several times every time he cursed. Ling Qiang was stunned by Ling Xuefeng's beating. Of course, even if he was not stunned, he could only let Ling Xuefeng beat him.
As the eldest elder of the family, Ling Xuefeng's cultivation is currently at the peak of the ninth level of the Tiangang Realm, second only to the clan leader Ling Yuanshan, and his combat skills are even more superb. How can Ling Qiang be able to resist?
"You still want to explain? Furthermore, what is a family?
We have both glory and misery, this is the family! According to what you mean, when a disaster comes, you have to send your clan members out to take the blame! If a disaster really comes, you will be a traitor to the family!"
However, the Great Elder Ling Xuefeng became angrier and angrier as he fought. When he got extremely angry, he kicked him and said, "I'll beat you to death for forgetting all the classics!"
When Ling Qiang, who was helpless to resist, was kicked by Ling Xuefeng until he vomited blood and flew backwards, Ling Xuefeng's silver hair fluttered and he pulled his great-grandson Ling Yuming back to Ling Dong's side.
Ling Yuming was stunned and stubbornly shook his head subconsciously.
"Crack!"
This time, the Great Elder Ling Xuefeng slapped Ling Yuming mercilessly and dragged Ling Yuming to the right side. The latter's cheeks were immediately bruised and tears welled up in his eyes, but he did not dare to speak out.
At the end, Ling Xuefeng added: "Young patriarch, no matter how you deal with them, I agree with you!"
"Dispose of it?" Seeing the appearance of the great elder Ling Xuefeng, the tribesmen standing on the left looked like they were having a nightmare, with frightened and confused eyes.
Especially the honorific title given to Ling Dong by the Great Elder Ling Xuefeng!
