Be the owner of Laojiabao?
Ling Xiao was speechless and found it difficult to clear his thoughts for a while.
After a while, he frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Xiao Zi smiled bitterly, slowly came forward, and whispered: "Lao Yu is dead."
"What?!"
Ling Xiao's body trembled, he took a step back and looked at her in shock.
I'm so shocked.
I pretended.
Xiao Zi didn't notice the difference, but smiled bitterly and said: "We are doing our best to catch the murderer. Now that the position of Lord of Laojiabao is vacant, Master asked me to ask you, are you interested in taking over the position?"
"Brother Ling, with your strength, why do you need to stay in Linfeng City and accept the favor of the prince's palace? Now the opportunity is in front of you to establish a cultivating family and develop your own power, isn't it good?"
"What's more, Laojiabao has been built a long time ago. If you take over now, it is equivalent to picking up a cultivating family for nothing!"
"Master said that if you take over Laojiabao, he is willing to make you the deputy leader, and all the resources of the sect will be at your disposal, so that you can develop your power to your heart's content. At the same time, he will also give you a foundation-building pill. If you succeed in building the foundation in the future, he won’t mind sitting on an equal footing with you and sharing the spiritual veins of Huangsong Mountain!”
Xiao Zi spoke in Ling Xiao's ear, her tone was extremely seductive, and the conditions she offered were unprecedentedly generous!
Even Ling Xiao's state of mind was slightly moved and his heart felt warm.
But then, he calmed down and figured out Gongsun Lie's thoughts.
With Lao Yu's death, Laojiabao instantly became an unfinished building.
The problem is that the "investor" Songshan Jianpai poured too many resources into Laojiabao in the early stage, and of course they do not want to see the property that was finally built become worthless.
The best way is to find a successor to this unfinished building and continue working on it until the day when the money is paid back.
Therefore, Ling Xiao, who was also a Fu cultivator, became the first choice.
"Xiao Zi, what you said today is so shocking, I couldn't relax for a while." Ling Xiao sighed and said with a wry smile.
Xiao Zi smiled slightly and said: "I understand. How about this? I will give Brother Ling three days to think about it, and I will come back after three days?"
"Can I ask first? Zifengtai has already banned it. Any remnants of Qingfeng Temple are not allowed to establish an immortal sect again. Master Gongsun is not afraid of being punished for doing so?"
"Brother Ling, don't worry about this. We have our own plan. Please trust our master."
Ling Xiao sighed: "Then come back in three days!"
Send Xiao Zi away.
Ling Xiao returned to the manor and yawned, feeling quite bored.
Acting is so tiring.
The conditions offered by the Songshan Sword Sect are of course very sincere. No one would refuse the benefits offered to them.
Wouldn’t it be beautiful to pick up a cultivating family for nothing?
Unfortunately, it was Ling Xiao.
Foundation Establishment Pill, can you also provide a heavenly grade Foundation Establishment Pill?
Establishing an immortal cultivating family is not even considered.
How can a man have time to do this if he has not avenged his grudge?
Besides, he has so many secrets, and if any of them are exposed, Gongsun Lie will not let him go.
And running under someone else's nose?
Too long to live, right?
"A golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as my doghouse!"
Ling Xiao stretched and continued practicing.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.
After "thoughtful consideration", Ling Xiao had to "bear the pain" and reject Xiao Zi who came to visit her again.
Xiao Zi immediately looked like "you're crazy" and stared at Ling Xiao, puzzled.
The Immortal Cultivation Family that came to your door, you actually don’t want it?
What kind of world is this?
"Miss Zi, please apologize to Master Gongsun for me! Your sect's conditions are certainly tempting, but now I don't dare to disobey Zifengtai's prohibition. Also, Lao Yu has someone kill me. If I take over, I won’t become the next target, right? Let’s forget it!”
Ling Xiao said with a wry smile, and then slammed the door shut without waiting for Xiao Zi's answer.
Xiao Zi stayed at the door for a long time, then stamped her feet unwillingly and left.
Not long after sending Xiao Zi away, the wind chime at the door rang again.
Ling Xiao opened the door and his face instantly darkened.
"Hong Da arrests the head, is there something wrong?"
The person who came was none other than Mr. Hong, with a wry smile on his face. He bowed his hands respectfully and said, "Young Master Ling, Mr. Hong has something to discuss with you..."
"No business."
With a bang, Ling Xiao slammed the door.
Hong Baotou smiled bitterly and had no choice but to leave with a sigh.
…
That night.
Ling Xiao put on the black rabbit mask after a long time and boarded the carriage heading to the black market.
The black market, under the jurisdiction of the Red Sect, seems to never be affected by the outside world. It is always so prosperous and always so restless.
After getting off the carriage, Ling Xiao started shopping at the street stalls.
It is impossible to go to the flea market in Huangsongcheng recently. There is a frantic search for the murderer of Lao Yu and strict interrogation of all people wearing masks. Ling Xiao does not want to fall into the trap.
After shopping around for a while, but not finding much, Ling Xiao then walked into various trading houses and started clearance sales.
A total of 700 spirit stones were sold for the jade slips of the martial arts and secret techniques.
Ore, monster materials, etc. are sold for 500 spirit stones.
In addition to Lao Yu's 30 second-level spiritual stones, Ling Xiao now has a huge sum of 4,200 spiritual stones in his hands, which is enough for him to squander for a while!
He was not polite and bought a bottle of moonflower dew on the spot, as well as some ingredients that he would not eat on a daily basis.
Finally, he came to Yunmengxiang, asked for a remote seat in the lobby on the first floor, and drank by himself.
Coming here has become his habit.
The more lonely you are, the more you miss the time when you had someone to accompany you.
Although those beasts often made Ling Xiao's blood pressure rise, when he really couldn't see them, Ling Xiao had to admit that he missed them very much.
I don’t know, how are they doing?
Strangely enough, since the elite team was disbanded, Ling Xiao had never seen the team members again.
Thinking back to when the team was first formed, Agou, Rao Wen and others wanted to sign a long-term contract and be bound to the team for the rest of their lives, but Ling Xiao didn't care.
But in the end, Agou Raowen left without hesitation, but Ling Xiao regretted it from time to time. Why didn't he ask for a longer contract in the first place?
It turns out that people really do change.
I didn't expect anyone today.
Its daybreak.
Ling Xiao stood up to pay.
"Everyone seems to have disappeared from the world. Where did they go?"
Ling Xiao was speechless.
Back in Linfeng City, Ling Xiao met Hong Baotou again at the gate of the manor.
It’s not over, right?
Ling Xiao felt angry and immediately turned a blind eye and opened the door to go home.
"Young Master Ling, this matter is not a trivial matter. It affects the lives of all the people in Luliu Town! Hong really had no choice but to invite you shamelessly. I hope you will stay for the sake of the people..." Mr. Hong said anxiously behind him.
boom!
What answered him was still the cold iron door.
Ling Xiao didn't even bother to look at him sideways, let alone stay.
Hong Shaotou looked dejected and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"What should we do now?"
"Only he can restart the things left behind by Qingfengguan..."
Just when Mr. Hong was about to return without success, the big iron door behind him opened again, making a sharp rumbling sound.
Hong Baotou was surprised and happy, and looked back.
He saw Ling Xiao standing at the door, looking at him coldly.
"30 seconds, finish speaking."
