"I don't care whether you do or not, just talk about yourself. As the future owner of Star Palace, shouldn't the interests of Star Palace be the main consideration in everything you consider?" Wen Qing asked again, somewhat sullenly.
"I will consider the interests of Xinggong, but uncle is definitely a trustworthy existence. There is no conflict between the two." Ling Yuling did not give in at all. This was also the truest thought in her heart, not an impulse.
Yes, I met Mo Juren when I was still a child. As we continued to get along with each other, my feelings for the latter gradually changed, and it was no longer a pure friendship.
But this does not make her "sexy and stupid". On the contrary, she knows very well that Mo Juren has the kind of character that is absolutely clear between grudges and grudges. As long as he is one of her own, he can be completely trusted.
The other party is so talented that he has the strength to compete with the strong ones in the early stage of Nascent Soul in the late stage of pill formation. Now he has broken through to the Nascent Soul stage at the age of more than 200 years. If such a being does not take the initiative to win over and make friends, On the contrary, it is really stupid to offend someone because of a dead thing.
What about Xutian Cauldron? Is it comparable to a future powerhouse in the divine transformation stage? If you can get such help, what problems will you have in taking charge of the Star Palace in the future?
Of course, these are only analyzed from the utilitarian side. She always followed her heart and treated Mo Juren sincerely. Similarly, the other party also gave her the greatest trust and did not even hide such important secrets.
Therefore, she did her best to deal with Mo Juren, and even her parents could not change her will.
It was the first time that Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing had seen their precious daughter have such a decisive side, and they instinctively felt a sense of relief in their hearts. Even if you contradict your husband and wife for the sake of an outsider, it is at least much better than blindly obeying.
In the past, they had been worried about their daughter's weak temperament and lack of skill and courage. Now it seems that all these years of experience have been in vain, and today they were given a big surprise.
"Do you really believe him that much?" After a moment of silence, Ling Xiaofeng said with an unusually solemn expression.
"I believe it." Ling Yuling continued without any hesitation,
"Furthermore, my father and mother will not fail to notice that my uncle is so talented. He may even break through to the stage of becoming a god in the future. Isn't such a person worth wooing?"
"You girl, you know how to make excuses." Ling Xiaofeng chuckled and continued,
"The Void Heaven Cauldron is extraordinary. It would be too expensive to exchange for a possible powerful person in the God Transformation Stage. However, you also know a little about your mother and I. This treasure is not of much use to us. Meaning, so the father doesn’t take it to heart.”
"Really?" After hearing this, Ling Yulin looked overjoyed. However, he was directly interrupted by the other party raising his hand,
"Don't be too happy too early. You don't have to worry about being a father and letting you handle your relationship with the other person on your own. But if you want to really get permission, your mother has to have the final say."
"Mother..." Ling Yuling also reacted and quickly stepped forward, took Wen Qing's hand and shook it slightly, her tone even more coquettish.
"Why are you calling me? Go find your uncle?" Wen Qing withdrew his palm, obviously still angry. However, the next moment, Ling Yuling hugged her slender neck and whispered in his ear,
"Uncle is not as important as my mother, so don't go to him."
"I heard that Mo Juren is handsome and graceful. How can I, an old woman, compare to me? You, a girl who is so fascinated by him, still remember that you have a mother?" Wen Qing's eyes flashed slightly. , a rhetorical question that means something.
"Mom is not an old woman. She is clearly a fairy who has descended to earth, the most beautiful woman in the sea of stars. If you don't believe me, ask dad to see if what I said is right?" Ling Yuling rubbed the other person's cheek and continued to compliment her.
"Yes, everything Ling'er said is right." Ling Xiaofeng didn't dare to hesitate and immediately agreed.
"You two, father and daughter, don't interrupt us." Wen Qing feigned anger and scolded him lightly, but felt very useful in his heart, and continued,
"Since you trust him so much, you must promise me something."
"What...what happened?" Somehow, Ling Yuling instinctively had a bad premonition.
"It's very simple. As long as you two get married, then Mr. Mo will become one of his own. Not to mention the Xutian Cauldron, the entire star palace will be his. Of course, your father and I will not care about all the things that have happened in the past. ." Wen Qing didn't mince words anymore and directly stated her purpose. This was what she and her husband had been thinking all along. Otherwise, how could they have allowed their daughter to exploit the walls of their home and lean against each other again and again for so many years?
"It's...getting married!" Ling Yuling was stunned, her fair cheeks turned red. She never expected that there would be such a request. Although it was what she was thinking, but she said it so nakedly, how could she, an inexperienced girl, bear it?
"But...but my uncle is already married, how could I..." Suddenly thinking of her past experiences, Ling Yuling suddenly woke up.
"How is it impossible? Is it possible that my daughter, Wen Qing, can't compare to Wang Ying? My Nuo Da Xing Palace can't compare to Miaoyin Sect?" Wen Qing was a little confused and frowned.
"It's not what my mother thought..." Ling Yuling wanted to explain, but she couldn't. Mo Juren was not just a woman named Wang Ying, but a group of wives and daughters. What's going on with her getting involved?
Based on her understanding of Mo Juren, he was definitely not the kind of wolf-hearted person who abandoned his wife and daughter in order to climb high. How could he accept her?
And such secrets must not be revealed to father and mother, otherwise they will probably fall out due to their personalities, especially if mother has the idea of bringing her and her uncle together.
"Do you like him? Don't lie and tell me your truest thoughts." Wen Qing ignored the others and pointed to the most fundamental issue.
"I..." Ling Yuling instinctively wanted to deny it, but she couldn't say it. After struggling for a long time, she finally nodded lightly.
"Then does he like you?" Wen Qing was very satisfied with her daughter's answer and continued to ask.
"It should be... I don't know." Ling Yuling hesitated a little when it came to this matter. It was true that the relationship between the two parties was close. Even the biggest secrets were not reserved for her. This kind of trust had already exceeded that of a friend. category.
However, when it comes to the relationship between men and women, she is not very confident. She herself is indeed considered excellent, no matter in terms of birth, appearance, etc., but how could Mo Juren's wives be so different? On the contrary, each one is more beautiful than the other.
Surrounded by beautiful people, and the other person is someone who doesn't care about family background at all. Under this premise, she does not have any advantage.
What was more gratifying was that the last time they met, the sisters were very kind to her, and even gave her a lot of hints in their words, which made her very happy. However, she had no way of knowing what her uncle was thinking.
"You don't know?" Wen Qing didn't know the complexity of this. He just thought that his daughter was too simple. Isn't it just a matter of men and women? Isn’t it clear at a glance whether the other person likes you?
If you don't like it, then naturally there is no way to win over him, and the two of you must take other measures. If she likes it, that would be great, and she and her husband will try their best to promote it. As for Miaoyinmen and Wang Ying, it is nothing at all. Even if Mr. Mo doesn't want to abandon his wife and daughter, it doesn't matter, just become a concubine. For the future of Xingong and the happiness of their daughter, they still have this tolerance.
"Has he made anything explicit to you, or made some promises?"
"Explicit statement? Promise?" Ling Yuling thought for a while and then said,
"Uncle once said that he treated me as a family member and at the same time told me all his secrets. Does this count as an express statement?"
"All the secrets? What are they?" Before Wen Qing could speak, Ling Xiaofeng's eyes lit up and he asked curiously.
"Since it's a secret, it can't be told." Ling Yuling rolled her eyes at the other party without any intention of revealing it, which immediately made the former extremely depressed.
"Since he treats you as a family member and doesn't even hide his own secrets, it proves that he cares about you. This is enough." Wen Qing nodded and continued,
"Okay, you don't have to worry about this anymore. Bring him over after a while, and my mother will take care of it by then."
"Let uncle come over?" Ling Yuling's heart moved, and a trace of hesitation flashed in her expression. She knew her mother's domineering temperament very well, and she always told the truth.
The uncle is also not an easy person to deal with. What if he is allowed to come and the two sides disagree and a conflict arises? By then she wouldn't even know who to help.
"What? Are you afraid that I will eat him?" Wen Qing was obviously dissatisfied with his daughter's hesitation and gave her an angry look. Ling Xiaofeng on the side quickly reminded,
"Why are you so confused, girl? Didn't that guy just use Feng Luo to express his attitude?"
"Then...okay." Ling Yuling also figured it out. Since her mother insisted on meeting her and her uncle had already made a decision, she couldn't stop her. And for some reason, although she was worried about the meeting between the two parties, she was also looking forward to it.
Of course, you must communicate with the other party before doing this, so as not to cause problems later.
Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still anymore, immediately made an excuse and left in a hurry.
"I'm not married yet, but my whole heart is focused on that boy named Mo. It's really a waste of time!" Looking at her daughter's disappearing figure, the anger on Wen Qing's face had long since disappeared, replaced by a strong look. Deep worry.
As someone who has been there, she can see clearly that her daughter is at a complete disadvantage in this relationship, being manipulated so hard by the other party that she might not even know when she was sold.
This is not okay. How could her gentle daughter be so useless? But there's no rush. Once the relationship is confirmed, I can slowly train him.
"Judging from the information we have investigated, Mo Juren is the best choice in terms of both qualifications and character. There should be no problems." Ling Xiaofeng comforted his wife with a smile, and then said,
"Besides, although there are problems with your cultivation, there are still more than two hundred years before the end of life. There is plenty of time to observe carefully, and we will never push my daughter into the pit of fire."
"That's all it can do." Wen Qing sighed softly, paused, and suddenly said,
"Just now Feng Luo mentioned Xu Qingcheng. In the past, he and the elders went to explore the ruins of the Transformation of Gods, but everything happened. Unexpectedly, after decades, this woman is still alive? Such a situation is a bit too strange. ?”
"It's indeed a bit weird." Ling Xiaofeng nodded. He accidentally got some clues and guessed that it might be related to the ruins of the monks in the transformation stage. Naturally, Xing Palace attached great importance to this, and then sent people to investigate. Unexpectedly, several Nascent Soul stage monks in two waves suddenly disappeared.
Such a result caught Xing Gong off guard, and he also understood that the matter was much more complicated than expected. At least, he could not send anyone to die until he was not sure.
Originally, there was no hope for this matter and it was temporarily put on hold, but I never thought that Xu Qingcheng would come back alive!
This surprised the two of them and at the same time they couldn't help but wonder, how did the other party survive? What have you experienced over the years? There are also the conditions of that ruins and so on.
The other one is Mo Juren, what did he do in it? How did you find Xu Qingcheng and bring her back to Tianxing City intact?
There were so many questions that the two of them wanted to call them over immediately to find out more.
"A lot of things have happened in the outer sea in recent years, which can be called turbulent, and this happened to be the time when Mo Juren went there. Do you think there is any connection between them?"
"Who knows, I'll find out when Mr. Mo comes to visit and I'll ask him." Wen Qing thought for a while and then said.
"Are you sure he will say it?" Ling Xiaofeng's eyes flashed slightly.
"If it was one of our own, I wouldn't hide it. If not..." Wen Qing sneered, and a pair of starry eyes suddenly became cold.
"I advise you to calm down. Judging from the decisive attitude of that girl Ling'er, if there is a conflict, she may not come to our side." Guessing his wife's thoughts, Ling Xiaofeng immediately poured cold water on her.
"That girl!" Wen Qing also reacted and said helplessly,
"It's all in vain, it's really all in vain."
"Okay, things haven't reached that point yet, so why should you be angry? You should think about how to entertain the other party. After all, this is the first time we meet, and there is even a possibility that Ling'er and I will get together. Don't wait any longer."
"You don't need to tell me, of course I know about this." Wen Qing rolled her eyes at the other party. She would naturally be particularly concerned about this future uncle-in-law, who was also Ling'er's greatest help.
After a pause, something suddenly occurred to him, and the conversation immediately changed,
"Is there really no solution to your and my problems?"
"It's difficult, but there are countless ancient books and information in the secret library. I plan to try my best to search in the next time. Maybe I can find some clues."
"It's also me who expects too much. In this case, the boy named Mo is particularly important. If we can really marry Ling'er, all our worries will cease to exist." Wen Qing sighed again. , but his crystal eyes turned rapidly, not knowing what he was thinking.
After hearing this, Ling Xiaofeng didn't say anything more, his thoughts were also surging, and for a while, the entire hall became quiet.
