"Today is inconvenient, let's do it tomorrow." Jiang Ling said with a smile.
"Okay, then tomorrow, my Huo family will sweep the couch to welcome you!"
Huo Tianxiang was overjoyed, which meant that his Huo family not only resolved the conflict with Jiang Ling, but might even get to know him.
"However, regarding my identity..."
"Don't worry, Young Sect Master Jiang. I have never met Young Sect Master Jiang. Where are you two?"
Huo Tianxiang looked at Huo Yunxiao and Huo Yunlan, and the two of them nodded like chickens pecking at rice.
"I haven't seen it before..."
Jiang Ling immediately showed a satisfied smile. He still had to keep his identity hidden. He would not be exposed to the public until the necessary moment.
"In that case, I won't give it away."
"Farewell."
…
The next day, early morning.
"What, Brother Shentu, what you said is true. The Huo family really won't come to take revenge on us?" Su Zihao's eyes widened.
"Haha, of course it's true. Brother Su, just keep it in your heart."
"Oh, I'm sorry for bothering you, Brother Shentu."
"Don't say these kind words. Okay, I have to go out for something and I'll be back in the evening."
After saying that, Jiang Ling took the Four Swordsmen and went out.
He did not plan to go to Huo's house immediately, but started walking around the king's city.
Looking at the prosperous scene around him, Jiang Ling was thinking about other things.
Last night, he couldn't wait to refine the two boxes of heavenly materials and earthly treasures and two hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones compensated by the Huo family.
The result was very disappointing to him. His cultivation and physical body were naturally improved, but the extent of this improvement was minimal.
He knew that the jade body was also storing energy and beginning to transform, so he still needed a lot of cultivation resources.
But he didn't know how much it would cost.
Moreover, even if he breaks through to the golden elixir stage, there will be another problem that worries him.
That is, his Wutian Holy Body Technique is incomplete, with only the first three levels, corresponding to the foundation building stage to the golden elixir stage. If he cannot find the follow-up technique, he may stay in the golden elixir stage for the rest of his life.
"The strength is still not enough..."
Suddenly, Jiang Ling saw an acquaintance out of the corner of his eye, who was looking at him with a smile.
Go, why is she here?
Jiang Ling quickly turned around and left, but it was already too late.
"Brother Jiang Ling, where are you going?"
"This girl, you have recognized the wrong person." Jiang Ling said in a lowered voice.
"Brother Jiang Ling, people know your aura, so it's useless for you to wear a mask, hehe~"
Jiang Ling's eyes showed helplessness as he looked at the girl who walked around him.
Yes, it’s Baihua!
As an assassin, he wears a white dress, but it doesn't give people the impression of being holy, but rather charming. This contrast makes people's eyes brighten.
But Jiang Ling was no longer in the mood to appreciate it. After he came out of the ghost cave, the girl seemed to have disappeared. He thought she had left on her own and there would be no interaction with her in the future.
Unexpectedly, I met him again in Junwang City.
"Hmm, I'm not Jiang Ling now." Jiang Ling coughed.
"People understand, Shen Tufei, everyone has heard about it. Those people are really ungrateful. If Brother Jiang Ling reveals your identity, you can scare them to death." Baihua said with a smile.
"Uh... am I that scary? I'm so amiable."
“Stop the child’s fussing and the baby’s cry.”
"..."
"You're kidding, brother Jiang Ling, you are a great hero!"
Jiang Ling curled his lips. What was the use of this title? He still wanted to pursue something real.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Ling asked.
"Of course I came here to see you. I want to practice with you." Bai Hua blinked.
"You can practice with me, but you can't practice dual cultivation..." Jiang Ling righteously refused.
"Brother Jiang Ling, you actually wanted to go there, but if it's with brother Jiang Ling, it's not impossible."
Let me go, what kind of tiger-wolf talk is this?
Jiang Ling didn't know what to say for a moment. When he wanted to ask the Four Swordsmen for help, they all looked up at the sky, as if there was something extraordinary up there.
"You can follow me if you want, but don't get in my way."
Bai Hua's appearance made Jiang Ling no longer in the mood to go shopping. Then he asked for the direction of the Huo family and went directly to the Huo family.
"Brother Jiang Ling, did you go to the Huo family to take revenge?" Baihua asked curiously.
"I'm a guest and will go to Huo's house later. Don't talk nonsense."
"Oh, I'm sure they won't talk nonsense."
…
Along the way, Bai Hua chattered some unhelpful topics, while the Four Swordsmen were also talking quietly.
"Isn't this girl the future young sect master's wife?"
"I don't know, I feel like the young master doesn't like her very much either."
"You still have to be vigilant. The young sect master is now at the age when his love affair is just beginning, and he can easily be taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives."
"Sister, what you said makes sense."
…
After a stick of incense.
Jiang Ling came to the door of Huo's house. Before he could enter, a hearty laughter came from the house.
"Master Shentu, welcome to my Huo family as a guest. It's really unfair to welcome you from afar!"
Huo Tianxiang was seen striding over with a group of people, including Huo Yunxiao and Huo Yunlan.
Jiang Ling's lips twitched, even if I were a guest, there would be no need to drag your whole family out, right?
"You're welcome, you're welcome."
"Then please come into the mansion and talk about it."
…
Later, Jiang Ling and his party entered Huo's house.
Although they are impressive, there is still a clear gap compared to the Daqian Sword Sect. This is the gap in background.
"I don't know what to call this little friend?" Huo Tianxiang turned his attention to Baihua.
"Hehe, my name is Baihua, and I am from brother Jiang Ling." Baihua said with a smile.
Jiang Ling suddenly stumbled and almost lost his balance.
"Didn't you agree not to talk nonsense?" Jiang Ling said via voice transmission.
"I'm not talking nonsense. If I follow you, of course I am yours, just like the four of them." Bai Hua responded as a matter of course.
"But you are so ambiguous!"
The spiritual sound transmission between Jiang Ling and Bai Hua was very fast. At this moment, Huo Tianxiang was still surprised by Bai Hua's identity.
"Haha, they are indeed a talented and beautiful couple!"
Bai Hua glanced at Jiang Ling proudly, and the latter twitched the corner of his mouth, not intending to take up the topic.
Soon, the Huo family began to hold a grand feast.
"Master Shentu, these dishes are made from heavenly materials, earthly treasures and monster beasts. Not only do they taste far better than mortal delicacies, but eating them can also increase your strength." Huo Tianxiang introduced.
Jiang Ling could already smell how fragrant these dishes were and couldn't wait to taste them first.
"Yes, although the spiritual energy is not very good, it can still satisfy your desires."
"Shentu..."
"No, wait until I finish eating before we talk."
Everyone in the Huo family was a little embarrassed as they watched Jiang Ling deal with all the food on the table in a hurry, not knowing what to say.
"I've finished eating and we can chat. I'll ask a question first."
