The person involved, Ling Linhan, now regrets it, very much.
He shouldn't have heard the words "Always give a little warning to the inactive officials of Wolong Kingdom", "Other forces will restrain themselves after learning a lesson", "Bring some more gifts, a big stick with sweet dates will be more effective" After seeing Ling Yao "seriously" choosing a birthday gift for the Youzhou Mansion, he believed what this guy said was true...
This horse riding is just a "little warning" and a "big stick with sweet dates"! Not only did he smash the door and beat the guards as soon as he came up, he also mercilessly chopped down the crystal cores one by one of the guard monsters that rushed towards him! This horse riding is simply offending people to death!
What kind of evil did he believe in to think that this guy who is full of tricks would behave normally!
And the key is, this guy still has the guts to rush into the lobby with a sword and mix the bloody crystal cores into birthday gifts and send them out together! I still have the nerve to say that the person who scared the guests was the trembling You Huanzhi. He was truly a shameless and invincible person!
Although in the eyes of others, the expressionless Ling Linhan standing by was undoubtedly an evil accomplice of the eldest young master of the Ling family who was showing off his power and power, only Ling Linhan knew that he was completely stunned and his pupils were shaking. That’s all.
But soon, his reaction was more than simple——
"Ah! That's right! Just this small gift is not enough! I also went to the south of the city to invite a band to entertain Mr. You's banquet!! Come on, come on! It's just enough to liven up the atmosphere!"
Just as Ling Linhan watched the band invited by Ling Yao, dressed in colorful and colorful clothes, walking into the courtyard step by step, and an unpleasant feeling arose in her heart, a sudden suona pierced the sky:
"Woo——"
The brains of everyone present seemed to go blank for a moment.
"Wu Li'er wow~ Wu Li'er wow~"
"Qiang——! Qiang——!"
"Wufu~wufu~wuererwa——"
Seeing Ling Yao's face laughing heartily amid the music, Ling Linhan almost jumped over on the spot:
Are you wishing people longevity? You are bragging about sending someone to his death! !
…
"Kid, don't look like you're in love with life. Just smile, smile, come on~"
Ling Yao turned around and leaned in front of Ling Linhan. He pointed the corners of his mouth with his index fingers and raised them to his cheeks, showing a big smile.
Ling Lin pressed his temples, which were throbbing, rolled his eyes, and pushed Ling Yao's face aside:
"Didn't you see how ugly those people's faces were when we left? With the situation like this, you are the only one who can laugh because you think you are going to celebrate a funeral..."
"Hey! Isn't it just that you saw how ugly their faces were that made you so happy?"
Ling Yao wasn't annoyed at all, he still had that playful smile on his face. But in Ling Linhan's opinion, the other party's tone at this moment was obviously much more serious than before, which made him sigh:
"Well, talking to you is really... nerve-wracking. Now that you have called me out, you should at least let me know your plan. Just seeing you offend others so wantonly, I will It’s hard to sleep and eat well.”
Ling Yao squinted his eyes and shook his fingers, looking enigmatic:
"It's nerve-wracking because you're still too stupid. If it were A-Nian, he would understand why or how I dared to make such a scene after I finished having fun...Wait a minute, on this street, Please take back the mustard bag of the finger-tiger glove!!"
Seeing Ling Linhan's unmoved look and the gleaming finger tiger on the opponent's hand that hurt when he hit someone, Ling Yao finally pretended to laugh a few times and began to smooth things over for him:
"Hahahaha of course. After all, A-Nian and I are good friends who have known each other for almost ten years, so of course we have a better understanding... To show my sincerity, I broke it into pieces and told you."
Ling Linhan: ...I didn’t feel comforted, but I felt like I was being criticized.
"You also know, Ben Xian... Well, I hate trouble the most, so I will never cause trouble for myself unless necessary. Of course, I will take you to the birthday party of 'Master You' this time. It’s not something that’s very necessary… No! Hey! Let someone finish what you’re saying first!”
"Then please tell me in a short and long way, okay?"
"Ahem, I just got some bad habits from Uncle Liang... To put it simply, although it's not necessary, it won't cause us much trouble."
"what does that mean?"
"It means - if the trouble lies with You Huanzhi, our troubles were already big enough at the beginning, and we don't care about what happened just now."
Ling Yao shrugged and spread his hands with a helpless smile.
Ling Linhan touched his chin and showed a thoughtful expression:
"Are you saying that no matter how we treat him, whether to please or humiliate him, he will never change his plan to suppress and exclude the Ling family because of us?"
"Bingo~ To be more precise, it's the people behind him who won't give up on such an intention."
Ling Yao blinked and snapped his fingers.
"Don't look at the fact that he is a domineering state official in the southeast. He uses his power and the selfish desires of various forces to play trade-offs, so that others have to try their best to please him... But in turn, everyone has to try their best to please him... The domestic forces are also using his greed to guide him to make choices that are beneficial to him.
"Suppressing the Ling family is a common choice made by both of them. Because of this, when faced with this guy's unreasonable deployment of troops and task arrangements, and when your people protest, others will think otherwise.
"This is of course not because they think that You Huanzhi, who holds power, will not turn the knife on them one day, but from the beginning, You Huanzhi has voluntarily become the knife in their hands.
"Where the knife will point does not depend on the relationship between the knife and the enemy, but the will of the person holding the knife, doesn't it?"
"So if you had known that trying to please You Huanzhi would not work, and that sooner or later everyone would have to fall out, why not just relax a few days in advance?"
"Eh? Did you discover all this?"
"Oh shit! Are you planning to hide this attitude?!"
"But I clearly gave him a few new monsters as compensation. After all, he has collected two or three sixth-level monsters, plus a mourning... Joy, after all, we have not lost anything. he--"
"Can you make up for the ruined place by sending a few monsters? Wait... Did you hire musicians according to the specifications of mourning music from the beginning?!"
"Ah, you spilled the beans. Don't tell anyone?"
"What difference does it make now if I don't tell you!"
Ling Linhan shot it out like a barrage of shots, panting for a while, and seemed to have finally calmed down:
"Okay, okay...it's impossible to change anyway. Hey, so what? There's been such a big fuss, isn't it really just for fun?"
“But you have to admit that it’s really nice to do this… A gentleman talks but never moves his hands!!”
In order to avoid Ling Linhan's iron fist, Ling Yao pretended to be frightened and ran forward three meters away like a rabbit.
"I'm such a calculating person, and I've been preparing for this trip for so long. Of course, I can't just do it just to have fun. If I just want to vent my anger on that guy, I can choose any time, and there is no need to bring a fool like you with me. Originally It is just for people to see, of course it must be well-staffed and behave in a public manner, otherwise how can it show the strength and attitude of the Ling family?"
"Show it to...people from other families? But! Do you want to break up like this and make so many enemies at once?! The Ling family is already..."
"Oh. So you are a muscle-brained cultivator who doesn't understand the thoughts of those of us who are in charge of housework. Making enemies? They are already hostile to the Ling family. Do they need us to start a fight?
"As for breaking up, there is no such thing - haven't you noticed? Since I entered the Youzhou Mansion, except for the polite etiquette at the beginning, I have not mentioned the name of anyone from other families, let alone Mention anything they did.”
Ling Linhan shook his failed fist and recalled what happened in You Mansion.
At that time, he was so shocked by Ling Yao's series of sexy moves that he couldn't think straight, and he didn't notice many details. But think about it carefully... Although every word this guy says will make people feel that if they are said to themselves, their blood pressure will definitely rise, but the only ones who are really on the verge of death are those who have been smashed. That's just the Youzhou Prefecture.
Although the others were shocked and may have had many calculations in their hearts, in the final analysis they were still bystanders who had nothing to do with them - because Ling Yao's words were aimed at only one person in Youzhou Mansion.
If this is the case... Even though it seems that Ling Yao's words and deeds are just provoking You Huanzhi, they are actually giving them a warning - although the Ling family's overall strength is not as good as theirs, there is a one-on-one challenge like Ling Yao's. A group of geniuses who can be picked up by a group of sixth-level monsters are still in the Ling family. If they want to take action against the Ling family, they still have to weigh the consequences.
Therefore, as long as no one breaks this layer of window paper, everyone can still maintain the superficial peace and avoid going to war directly - of course, this is related to the fact that other families are now being invaded by demons to some extent.
As for why we should bring Ling Linhan with us... that's even simpler. The internal fighting between the head of the Ling family and Hengnan is no secret in the southeast, and even the game between the two parties has some hints of other families intervening.
But at this moment, Ling Linhan was able to stand firmly (frightened) and stupidly beside Ling Yao, which also showed an attitude - although the Ling family has internal strife, it does not affect their ability to carry out critical tasks. Always be consistent with the outside world.
Looks familiar, right?
This is what Ling Linhan realized after recalling a guy who was stabbed in the butt by Ling Yao and still went berserk and fought monsters with Ling Yao in the land of inheritance - apart from issues of principle and stance, Ling Yao and those People who are in the same camp and have friction probably always have this kind of relationship.
Thinking about it this way, he is really... an enviable guy.
But for Ling Yao, this situation seemed to be a matter of course.
"I see that your forehead is starting to heat up. You must have figured it out after overloading, right?"
Ling Yao gestured with his gun and pointed it at Ling Linhan, with an expression that showed that although Ling Linhan didn't know what it meant, he felt that he deserved a beating at first glance.
"In that case, let's move on to the next mission, shall we?"
"Ah, besides You Huanzhi, do you plan to drag me to 'visit' anyone else?"
"Hey, hey! I can hear you emphasizing a certain word! But this time is different, we are really going to visit someone... Hey, hey, put away your suspicious eyes! I'm not kidding!"
Facing Ling Linhan's extremely suspicious look, Ling Yao glanced to the side with some guilt, then turned back and continued to explain,
"Although You Huanzhi will not cause us any more trouble, the original trouble has not been eliminated, okay! It is impossible for the Ling family to withstand so many family alliances by relying solely on force.
"Since I have completely offended You Huanzhi, of course I must take this opportunity to find a more powerful backer for the Ling family! Here we are!"
Following Ling Yao's pointing, Ling Linhan raised his head and looked at the plaque in front of the mansion:
"Yang... Mansion?"
Before Ling Linhan could recall any dignitaries named Yang in the southeastern realm, he saw Ling Yao straighten his back as if he had changed his mind, walked towards the concierge of the Yang Mansion with a serious look, and politely expressed his intention to come. , someone announced the visit.
In short, this person really switches too quickly every time!
Ling Linhan touched his forehead and felt a headache.
But having said that, if you were to be a wartime commander and a representative of your family, Ling Yao would have to consider so many things, all interlocking and comprehensive...
A guy like me, who doesn't understand the twists and turns between people, and who can't see through it from the first step, can really get the position of the head of the Ling family even if he takes ten thousand steps back. Are you really capable of managing the entire Ling family in the future?
I always feel...a little uneasy.
Ling Linhan couldn't help but rub his arms, as if this could make the chill in his heart subside.
The porter quickly brought a message inviting them to enter the house, and respectfully led the way.
"Careful where you step, please come this way. Sir, you have been waiting for you two for more than a while."
The moment he stepped into the hall, Ling Linhan looked up and saw the face of the person in the hall.
The middle-aged man in gray robes on the seat held up the Western-style single mirror on the bridge of his nose. When he saw the two figures, he immediately stood up to greet them:
"Young friend Ling is a rare guest here. Today's visit really makes Mr. Yang's humble abode shine..."
"Mr. Yang, if this courtyard is a humble house, then the place where this junior lives in the master's house on weekdays is just a shabby thatched hut. Sir, you are too kind."
Ling Yao also smiled and bowed his hands.
"However, it's been a long time since we saw each other..."
"You...you are..."
The person in front of me is the dean of the Southeast Branch of Shenlong Academy——
"Mr. Yang Huaili." "Teacher Yang Huaili!"
