The Jin family left without causing any trouble.
The ordinary daily life in Linfeng City is still going on, the shouts of the people can be heard everywhere, and the post-disaster reconstruction work is in full swing.
On everyone's face, there is a longing for future life, and they don't look like people who have lost their home.
This is because Ling Xiao spent 80% of Linfeng City's tax revenue in one go to help them rebuild their homes.
Coupled with the loving donations from "people from all walks of life", the funds that people can use to rebuild their homes suddenly become extremely abundant. Every household has full pockets, and many people are planning to build large villas.
All sentient beings are diverse.
After Ling Xiao inspected it, he found nothing unusual.
Return to the manor to continue training.
Now, he has completely consolidated his cultivation in the later stage of foundation building, and in the next period of time, he plans to improve his body forging state as well.
The state of mind has reached the late stage of foundation building. As long as there is a steady stream of resources, Ling Xiao believes that breakthrough will become easy.
In addition, Minghu's cultivation level must be improved step by step.
The main body is already at the advanced stage of foundation building, but the clone is only at the early stage. How can this be done?
Moreover, the monks had all gone to help with post-disaster reconstruction, so Ling Xiao was not needed to guide training for the time being, so he could devote himself to training wholeheartedly.
In the blink of an eye, another seven days passed.
Linfeng City welcomed an uninvited guest, an uninvited guest who should not have appeared in the rear.
"Good morning, Brother Rabbit."
She bowed.
The shout of "Brother Rabbit" made Ling Xiao get goosebumps all over his body. He felt a chill and was also frightened.
He quickly took a few steps back and coughed softly: "Sister Yu, don't do this, I'm afraid."
Jiang Yu smiled like a flower, took another step closer to Ling Xiao, and said delicately: "Oh, look at what you said! Brother Rabbit, you are such a mighty and majestic man, are you afraid that your sister will eat you?"
While talking, she leaned against Ling Xiao's strong chest.
Ling Xiao dodged and grabbed her hand one after another, giving her a beating.
"Fuck, are you looking for death?"
She yelled angrily, furious.
Ling Xiao was not afraid at all and said with a smile: "Sister Yu, I know you are too lonely during the war and haven't had close contact with a handsome guy for a long time, but I don't rely on my reputation to make a living, so please spare me."
Jiang Yu glared at him angrily and cursed: "Don't you have something in mind? You are the only one who still wants to rely on your face to make a living. I won't starve you to death!" As she spoke, her pretty face turned red, and she became even more annoyed, and stared again He glanced at Ling Xiao.
If looks could kill, Ling Xiao would have been cut to pieces by now.
Ling Xiao had no intention of quarreling with her, and asked seriously: "The fighting on the front line is so fierce, why do you still have time to come here in person?"
Jiang Yu muttered in a low voice, seeming to be cursing the eighteenth generation of Ling Xiao's ancestors, and then snorted coldly: "The fox demon master in the late stage of foundation establishment showed great power in the rear and killed an entire Izumo army. This little girl has to If you know the news, why don’t you come and commend me?”
Her words highlighted a yin and yang aura mixed with a deep sour grapes mentality.
Late stage of foundation building!
Jiang Yu was deeply shocked when he saw Ling Xiao for the first time just now.
Thinking back to those days in Donghuang City, Ling Xiao was still in the early stages of foundation building. In just four or five years, he couldn't take the elixir so quickly, right? !
What kind of incredible opportunity did this guy get?
For a moment, Jiang Yu's eyes were as sharp as knives, staring at Ling Xiao.
She had a guess.
The legacy of Ying Jiuchuan and Xu Fu!
Ling Xiao must have obtained the relics of the two golden elixirs, and his cultivation level will soar like a rocket!
This bitch...
Jiang Yu cursed even more in his heart.
Ling Xiao gave her a strange scolding, and was a little caught off guard. He could only cough lightly and said with a smile: "You are also in the middle stage of foundation building, so congratulations!"
As soon as he said this, he regretted it.
The river fish was completely ignited as if it had eaten explosives, and it flew up and kicked.
Ling Xiao hurriedly avoided.
"How dare you hide?!" Jiang Yu frowned and was furious.
She established the foundation earlier than Ling Xiao!
In the end, this guy caught up from behind!
How could Jiang Yu, who always regarded himself as a genius, endure this?
Ling Xiao also realized something was wrong and hurriedly said: "Stop making trouble, it's time to get down to business!"
Jiang Yu made a move.
Her expression suddenly became more serious than ever before.
Ling Xiao was about to scold her for her changeable temperament and whether she was in menopause, but he heard her say: "Okay, let's get down to business and sign the contract."
She threw over a jade slip.
Ling Xiao was stunned.
What contract?
He took it and looked at it, then fell silent.
After a moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "You know, it is impossible for me to join Zifengtai."
The so-called contract is an invitation for the position of "servant elder" in Zifengtai.
The relaxed and cheerful atmosphere just now disappeared with Ling Xiao's rejection, and was replaced by deathly silence and depression.
Ling Xiao felt a little uncomfortable. This kind of atmosphere made him feel repelled from the bottom of his heart.
Jiang Yu looked at Ling Xiao and said, "We can discuss the treatment later."
Ling Xiao shook his head: "It's not about treatment."
The treatment offered by Zifengtai can be said to be unique, and even Ling Xiao's family was quite moved when he saw it.
But this is not a question of treatment.
He will not join Zifengtai.
Otherwise, what face will there be in the future to meet the ancestors of the Qingfeng Temple under the Nine Springs?
This is a matter of principle.
Jiang Yu was silent for a moment, then suddenly whispered: "Hanshan and Agou also want you to join us. Let's do big things together, just like the elite team back then. You just do it for me... No, you just do it for yourself, okay? ?”
For some reason, her tone trembled slightly, as if with a hint of pleading.
This was the first time for Ling Xiao to see her like this.
Just do it for yourself.
Ling Xiao chewed this sentence over and over again. After a long time, he met her complicated eyes and finally understood the meaning behind this sentence.
My heart felt like it had been stabbed hard, a stab of pain.
it is more than words.
Do you want to join Zifengtai?
For Jiang Yu, for Hanshan and Agou, and more importantly, for himself.
"Is it hard to fight? I see you have gray hair." He changed the subject and asked.
"It's not as easy as before." Jiang Yu replied, "I miss the time when I was in the elite team. Those days were the happiest days in my life."
"You still have a long life, how do you know you won't be happy in the future?" Ling Xiao asked.
Jiang Yu fell silent again and suddenly laughed.
"That's right, you have to always look forward."
Now that she knew Ling Xiao's answer, she seemed to have relieved a lot of her burden. She smiled and said, "Agou told me a very funny thing."
"What is it?"
"He asked me to marry you directly to Xingyun Peak, so that you don't have to join Zifengtai. From now on, we will form a golden elixir together and manage Beiliang Kingdom together... Hanshan is even more funny, he has prepared all the betrothal gifts. "
Jiang Yu smiled and crossed it with his bare hands. Ling Xiao suddenly had a lot of things in front of him.
Ling Xiao couldn't laugh. He stared at the pile of extremely expensive "betrothal gifts" in a daze.
After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "The elite team was really happy during that time. I don't know if I told them about it, I forgot."
"I'll pass it on for you."
Jiang Yu said with a smile, but his dark eyes gradually lost their light and became gloomy.
She stopped laughing and just whispered: "Rabbit, please do one more thing... kill Xiao Bufan."
"These things count as my advance payment."
She decided to leave just as suddenly as she had arrived.
When she walked to the door, she paused slightly, as if she was waiting for something, but also seemed to be just preparing.
Prepare to cross the final threshold.
"Goodbye, Rabbit."
She passed and left.
The sun is shining brightly outside.
"Senior sister, why do you look so ugly? Is this uncle blackmailing you again?" Ah He, who was guarding the door, came up to him and asked with a smile.
Jiang Yu was in a daze for a moment, shook his head, pulled Ahe into his arms.
"Sister, you are so heavy..." Ah He muttered.
Jiang Yu seemed to have lost all strength, and his whole body was relying on her.
"Ahe."
"What's wrong?"
"Master Ling is out on a mission and it will take a long... long time to come back. From today on, you will be the city lord."
Ah He paused on his feet and looked at Jiang Yu strangely, feeling a little confused.
But she was optimistic by nature, and soon she stopped caring so much and said excitedly: "Okay! But senior sister, I won't be a temporary officer. I won't quit when uncle comes back in the future. Let him be the deputy city leader!"
Jiang Yu laughed dumbly, pinched Ah He's cheek and said, "It's time for me to go."
"Oh... Goodbye, Senior Sister. I, the Lord of the City, will not be far away to see you off!"
Ah He waved his hands excitedly, watching the escaping light of the river fish soar into the sky and disappear into the clouds.
When the dawn came, the cloud shone with golden edges, like a clear-cut boundary.
From this moment on, Jiang Yu's life was also divided into two parts by this boundary.
The upper part is about laughing, cursing, and playing games. She is very happy, even if she bears the hope of the entire Beiliang, she doesn't take it to heart;
In the lower part, she has fought for many years and gone through thousands of sails. Her happiness has become a dispensable memory. She will devote her whole life to the rule of Zifengtai.
For this goal, she grasped the sword of power tightly, cut off the past, cut off the friendship, and walked towards the throne of the king step by step.
The side of the couch that does not allow others to sleep soundly is the king's throne.
So the Beiliang Kingdom, which had been fighting for many years, finally ushered in... after the fall of Ying Jiuchuan...
A new king ascends the throne.
