Ling Tao told him exactly what happened when Qiu Fengzhu contacted him and asked him to find the eldest son of the Qiu family.
After Ling Tao finished narrating, he waited respectfully, but after waiting for a long time, Ling Yun showed no signs of giving instructions.
After waiting for a while, Ling Tao raised his eyes slightly and saw that Ling Yun was still reading the book, his expression did not change at all, and he seemed to have no interest in what he was reporting.
"Ahem... Young Master, what should we do next about this matter?"
Ling Tao asked again.
Ling Yun glanced at him and frowned slightly, then let go, with a bit of impatience, "You can just report this matter to Xuan Tianchuan, you don't have to repay me."
Ling Tao's mouth twitched, he was also the ninth elder of the Ling family, and he had to report his affairs to a boy who was no more than ten years old.
This kid is not from the Ling family!
Ling Tao felt very unhappy when he thought that although Xuan Tianchuan was a cripple and could only paralyze in a wheelchair, he could still make plans and guide the country.
After all, that brat of ours is a few years older than Xuan Tianchuan, but he fools around all day long, has poor cultivation, and has no scheming at all. He is extremely dandy!
Thinking of this, Ling Tao felt itchy under his hands and wanted to catch that brat back and give him a good beating!
Ling Tao calmed down all the thoughts in his mind, raised his hand and said: "Young Master, over there with Shengzi Lu..."
"What's wrong with Lu Yuan?!"
When Ling Yun heard the news about Lu Yuan, he immediately put down the book in his hand and looked over, his eyes filled with nervousness!
Ling Tao looked at his young master's expression that was completely opposite to usual, and for a moment, he could only purse his lips.
Thinking that ever since Ling Yun took a step forward in the art of spear, he became even more joyful and extremely calm.
But now, just hearing the three words "Lu Shengzi", he looks nervous, how can he look calm anymore?
This young master may have fallen into the hands of Shengzi Lu...
"There is still no news from Shengzi Lu. No one who has entered the imperial palace knows what happened. It's just that the imperial palace is now extremely alert, and the number of guards is ten times the usual number!"
"Something must have happened, but whether it is related to Shengzi Lu or not has not yet been determined."
Ling Tao responded respectfully and explained clearly the situation of the imperial palace investigation.
Ling Yun hummed, and after thinking for a few times, he said: "Continue to investigate. If you find out any information, report it to me immediately!"
"yes!"
Ling Tao raised his hand and turned around to leave.
After leaving the main hall, Ling Tao looked at the vast Ling clan in front of him and let out a long breath.
These past few days have indeed been earth-shaking for him.
Originally, he was just an undistinguished elder of the Ling family. He only had one heir and was useless. He had no intention of competing for the family's resources.
Every day he just wanders around or beats up the unfilial children in the family.
Until one day, he was about to find a place to relax in Xuanzhong as usual, but as soon as he stepped into the pavilion, he saw everything around him suddenly collapsed, and an unusual aura enveloped him.
The next moment, a person who looked exactly like him appeared in front of him.
The man's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he was holding a long sword in his hand to kill.
Ling Tao also immediately raised his gun to resist, but he was no match for this man. After one or two fights, the weapon in his hand was broken.
Seeing the long sword slashing in front of him, at the moment of life and death, Ling Yun suddenly appeared, his spear intent surged, and in a few breaths, he killed the man.
Only then did Ling Tao realize that this person was a lurking person from the Zhengdao Qiu family who wanted to take his place!
Then, for some reason, Ling Tao became Ling Yun's confidant and kept running for her.
From choosing a hiding place in the Ling family, to connecting Xuan Tianchuan and others into it, and then going to the door of the Qiu family with Ling Yun to deliberately provoke others, making other aristocratic families suspicious of the Qiu family, and even asking him to pretend to be Qiu.
Jia Anzi hinted at Qiu Fengzhu and gained his trust.
He did almost all of this step by himself!
Ling Tao sighed, feeling a little depressed. He used to be so happy with nothing to do, but now he is running around like this. It's really hard work!
After expressing some emotions in his heart, Ling Tao touched the jars of thousand-year-old wine that Ling Yun had given him a few days ago, hummed a little tune, and walked leisurely towards the courtyard where Xuantianchuan was located.
After a while, Ling Tao bypassed many people from the Ling family and arrived outside the hidden courtyard where Xuan Tianchuan and others were.
I saw that outside the courtyard, there were legal formations guarding me.
This was originally a courtyard where wrongdoers were imprisoned, but it has been abandoned for many years.
Ling Tao personally renovated it, and it is now passable.
He walked directly towards the inside. The magic circle covering the outside shook slightly, and he felt the aura on Ling Tao's body, and then fell silent immediately.
Ling Tao stepped directly into one of the main halls. As soon as he walked around a few bookshelves, he saw Xuan Tianchuan and Qin Yihan both looking solemn, as if they were discussing something.
As for the rest of the people who usually gathered here, no one knew where they were at this time.
When Xuan Tianchuan saw Ling Tao approaching, he immediately relaxed his frown, a gentle smile immediately appeared on his lips, and raised his hand to salute, "Senior Ling Tao."
Qin Yihan also raised his hand.
Ling Tao smiled back and gave an overview of Qiu Fengzhu's contact with him.
After hearing this, Xuan Tianchuan smiled and nodded.
"Senior Ling Tao, please reply to her and agree, saying that you will definitely mobilize all your strength to find Qiu Xuan!"
Ling Tao immediately called up the talisman and restored Qiu Fengzhu's talisman on the spot.
The matter had been decided, and Ling Tao was about to leave. After a thought, Ling Tao suddenly looked back and asked, "Shall we look for Qiu Xuan?"
Xuan Tianchuan's eyes were determined, "Look! How can we not look for the Qiu family's weakness that was finally brought up?!"
"Senior Ling Tao doesn't need to worry about this matter. I've already made arrangements. But if there is any news from Qiu Fengzhu, please let Senior Ling Tao inform me as soon as possible."
Ling Tao naturally agreed.
He took a deep look at Qin Yihan and Xuan Tianchuan opposite him. For some reason, he always felt that these two people were opposite him, but he always felt like he was facing thousands of troops.
Ling Tao shook his head secretly, flicked his sleeves, and walked happily to his small courtyard.
I finally have some free time today, so I can have a good taste of this thousand-year-old wine!
After Ling Tao left, the smiles on the faces of Xuan Tianchuan and Qin Yihan dropped instantly.
Qin Yihan leaned on the table with the map of Xuanzhong spread out and said calmly: "It is rumored that Qiu Xuan is extremely talented. He is only eighteen years old and has already entered the half-step of delusion. In the Qiu family, such talent and strength
, not inferior to Qiu Qingli at all."
"According to the Qiu family's eldest elder's temperament of competing with others in everything, it's strange that Qiu Xuan doesn't appear too much in front of the world."
