"Humph, that's good, but you must give me an explanation for today's matter. Our Xiao family cannot be bullied by others. Otherwise, even if I can agree, I don't think my family behind me will agree. Let's go."
Xiao Xianghan's face darkened, and then she turned and left the courtyard. She knew that it was impossible for her to touch Ling Yunfeng today.
I have no choice but to leave first and look for opportunities later. This is not the time to completely break up with the Ling family.
Immediately, Ling Renhao and Xiao Bing also left the courtyard with the support of several servants.
After listening to the words of these three people, Ling Yunfeng frowned slightly and his eyes flickered, guessing that there might be some unknown secrets in the Ling family.
Looking at Xiao Xianghan's back, Ling Zhanxuan's eyes couldn't help but condense, and then his eyes flashed back to his original look. He turned his head, looked at Ling Yunfeng and his son and said softly: "Okay, it's okay."
"Thank you, uncle and fifth master." Mrs. Su hurriedly stepped forward to express her thanks.
"Third sister-in-law, why are you so polite? We are all our own people," Ling Pengyi said.
Ling Zhanxuan smiled and nodded, then looked at Ling Yunfeng and asked: "Feng'er, when did you become a martial artist?"
"It's been a while." Ling Yunfeng said, his tone was quite polite. From his memory, he also knew that this uncle had taken good care of their mother and son in the past.
"Good boy, the third brother will be very happy to know." Ling Pengyi patted Ling Yunfeng on the shoulder and smiled, then turned his eyes and asked: "What kind of cultivation level do you have now, can you hurt Xiao Wei, Xiao You and others?"
Renhao, your cultivation level should be above the eighth level of martial arts stage, right?"
"I'm not sure, it's probably at this stage." Ling Yunfeng said.
Hearing this, Ling Mo glanced at him and saw that his young master's cultivation was not only at the seventh level martial arts stage, he was probably already a second level warrior or above.
Otherwise, how could a peak-level first-level warrior like Xiao Bing be seriously injured with one move? Master Wu probably asked this question because he didn't see the scene just now.
Ling Xueyuan didn't know when she released the restraint on her body, and now she and Ling Mengyu were standing quietly behind Ling Zhanxuan and Ling Pengyi.
When the two women heard Ling Yunfeng's words, they looked at each other with twinkling eyes. They knew that Ling Yunfeng had another identity - an alchemist, and one of the conditions for becoming an alchemist was that his cultivation level was at least
Warriors and above, only warriors can condense the elixir fire to refine elixirs.
Of course, seeing that Ling Yunfeng didn't want to expose his own strength, they naturally wouldn't say anything about it.
Seeing that Ling Yunfeng didn't seem to want to talk more about this aspect, Ling Zhanxuan's eyes flashed and he said: "Oh, I will take a test during the family test in a few days and I will know what kind of cultivation you are now. Since you are already a martial artist, you will
Do you have any plans?"
"I plan to leave the Ling family." Ling Yunfeng said.
"Leaving the Ling family is absolutely not possible. Staying in the Ling family can guarantee your safety. But you will be in danger after leaving the Ling family. There are some things you don't know yet." Hearing this, Ling Pengyi looked a little surprised.
He said immediately.
"Yes, you should stay for now. Leaving the Ling family will only make you more dangerous. You will understand some things later," Ling Zhanxuan said.
"I don't want to understand, I only know that if we stay in the Ling family, our mother will continue to be bullied." Ling Yunfeng said, he didn't have a good impression of the Ling family.
"Alas! It seems that you have been forbearing, so why not continue to be forbearing, it will be more beneficial to you." Ling Zhanxuan sighed, and then his face changed without any trace, looking at his nephew who had grown up with him.
, seemed to feel something strange.
"Some things cannot be tolerated." Ling Yunfeng said, watching his mother being humiliated by several slaves, how could he endure it? If he could still watch his mother being humiliated because of his own safety, then would he still be a human being? People should live their lives.
Have their own bottom line and principles.
Sometimes, some bottom lines and principles are even more important than your own life. They are never allowed to be touched in any way.
"Okay, that's it for today. You'd better stay at the Ling family for now. We'll talk about leaving later." Ling Zhanxuan said, then looked at Ling Pengyi and asked: "Pengyi, when did you come back? Father, he
…”
"I just came back. I rushed over immediately when I heard about this. My father asked us to meet him later." Ling Pengyi said softly.
"Oh, let's go see father now." Ling Zhanxuan said.
"Brother, you go first. I have something else to talk to Feng'er. I'll be there later." Ling Pengyi said.
"Okay then, I'll wait for you at my residence. You can come find me later when things are settled." Ling Zhanxuan said, then nodded to everyone and turned around to leave the courtyard.
"Mom, Uncle Pengyi, let's go now. It's getting late." Ling Xueyuan and Ling Mengyu stepped forward and said softly.
"Well, you two wait a minute. I have something for you to help me with. Feng'er and I have something to discuss. This matter is a bit important and needs to be kept secret, so... haha!" Ling Pengyi winked at the two girls and said with a smile.
.
"Uncle Pengyi, don't worry, we got it." Looking at the former, the two women smiled slightly and naturally knew that Ling Pengyi meant for them to guard him outside.
"Well, Feng'er, you come in with me, I have something to talk to you about." Ling Pengyi looked at Ling Yunfeng and said, then turned to Su Shi and said: "Third sister-in-law, you and Xueyan and the others are chatting outside, Feng and I are
Let’s talk about something.”
"Fifth Master, just go ahead." Su said hurriedly, obviously flattered by the other party's call of "Sister-in-law."
There was a small candle placed on the wooden table in the center of the small, dark room. A cluster of flames flickered on the candle. Ling Pengyi and Ling Yunfeng were sitting opposite each other at the table.
"Fifth Uncle, what do you want to talk to me about?" Ling Yunfeng asked. He didn't know what the Fifth Uncle wanted to say to him, and he seemed a bit mysterious.
"It's nothing, I just haven't seen you for a long time, and I want to have a casual chat with you!" Ling Pengyi said, and then sighed slightly: "You mother and son have suffered so much these years."
"Fifth Uncle, there is nothing wrong with it." Ling Yunfeng said. He could feel that this Fifth Uncle really cared about him.
"Well, originally I wanted to take you mother and son out so that you wouldn't have to suffer these hardships. But I am taking care of the family business alone. I am running around all day and I have no fixed place to live. It is not convenient to take you with me.
But I have made you suffer in this family, I am sorry for Third Brother."
Ling Pengyi said, blaming himself a bit on his face. He originally wanted to take Ling Mo's mother and son with him to protect them, but he has been running around for the family for many years and has no fixed place to live, so it is inconvenient to take them with him.
"Fifth Uncle, don't blame yourself, we are doing well this way." Ling Yunfeng said.
"Well, fortunately, although you have suffered some hardships over the years, luckily mother and son are safe, otherwise I would not have the shame to go down there to see the third brother in the future." Ling Pengyi said, and then seemed to remember something: "Oh, by the way, Feng
Son, you just said you wanted to leave the Ling family, and Uncle Wu is trying to persuade you that it is best not to leave the Ling family now."
"Why?" Ling Yunfeng asked.
"Do you know that your grandfather and several uncles have seen your mother and son being humiliated over the years but they have done little to help you?
Although your mother and your father were not officially married, she still gave birth to you for your father. Even though you were a waste who couldn't practice before, you are still your father's bloodline.
Even if our uncles and your grandfather cannot help you live a peaceful life, you are still capable of living a peaceful life, but do you know why they make you suffer in the family?" Ling Pengyi asked.
"Why...why?" Ling Yunfeng was also confused. In his memory, his grandfather and these uncles didn't seem like people who didn't care about family ties.
"This is because your second aunt Xiao Xianghan, your grandfather found out that she had a conspiracy to enter the Ling family, and it was a huge conspiracy. As for what the conspiracy is, I won't tell you now. You may know it later.
.
The Xiao family is too powerful for us to contend with, so in order to protect the Ling family, we have to compromise with Xiao Xianghan on some things.
I think you should also know that you were unable to practice before because someone arranged a trick, right?" Ling Pengyi said.
"Yes, I know it. Does Fifth Uncle also know it?" Ling Yunfeng asked, and at the same time he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was such a big secret.
"Of course I know. Not only do I know, but your grandfather and several uncles also know that Xiao Xianghan did this.
It's just that the method on you is too powerful, even your grandfather can't untie it, I think you must have had some adventure." Ling Pengyi said.
"Well..." Ling Yunfeng nodded and said. It seems that his guess was correct. It was Xiao Xianghan's fault that his body was unable to practice before. Thinking of this, Ling Yunfeng couldn't help but a chill flashed in his eyes. When he was strong enough,
, we must settle the score with that Xiao Xianghan.
"Also, your grandfather and I found something when we went out this time. Your father's death seems to have something to do with the Xiao family." Ling Pengyi said with a slight expression on his face.
"It's the Xiao family again, what do they want to do?" Ling Yunfeng said with a serious look.
"We don't know this, and Xiao Xianghan has always wanted to do harm to you and your mother. Now that you have become a martial artist, she will be more able to deal with you. If you leave the Ling family, it will be more dangerous, so you should stay here first.
In the Ling family, they don't dare to mess around too much," Ling Pengyi said.
"Okay, I'll stay with the Ling family first." Ling Yunfeng said. Listening to what Ling Pengyi said, it would indeed be more dangerous for him to leave the Ling family. If he leaves the Ling family and loses the constraints of the Ling family, Xiao Xianghan will be unscrupulous.
Deal with yourself.
Then Ling Yunfeng looked at Ling Pengyi with some doubts and said, "Fifth Uncle, there is something I don't understand!"
"What's the matter? Tell me!" Ling Pengyi asked with a stern look.
