Ling Changsheng deliberately invited the Star Army generals for only one purpose, and that was to make Lu Yunyou look embarrassed in front of many Star Army executives. Once Lu Yunyou lost to Ling Zihao, by then, Lu Yunyou would not only be unable to stay in the Ling family, but also because of the big star army. It was difficult to stay in the army because of losing face. For Ling Changsheng, his invitation to the Star Army was a double win.
On the other side, as for the Star Army, after receiving the invitation from the Ling family, the commander of the cavalry camp was immediately furious, and the border was tense. However, people in the army were still neglecting their duties, and even did things that affected the morale of the army. Based on what Lu Yunyou did, It has a great impact on the army. Liu Hongtao directly has plans to deal with Lu Yunyou. If Lu Yunyou loses to Ling Zihao and loses the face of their star army, then he will directly ask Lan Xu to remove Lu Yunyou from his position.
Putting aside the situation in the military camp, one day passed by in the blink of an eye. Early the next morning, gongs and drums were beating at the door of Ling Mansion, as if it were a wedding. There was a festive atmosphere everywhere. Some of the officials were at the door to greet the guests, and the servants Coming and going, serving tea and water to guests.
The house is bustling with people, and most of the senior officials of the Ling family are entertaining guests in the mansion. There are scenes of people chatting and being polite everywhere. The guests now are all people from Wufeng City, they know each other, and they can all chat with each other.
In addition to one representative, there were also some young clan members from each family, both male and female. They were all domineering and arrogant. Before the competition between Ling Zihao and Lu Yunyou, these young talents had a chance to show off their talents.
After all the guests arrived, Ling Changsheng came out to speak directly. It could be hosted by the Ling family head or him, so the guests were not surprised why Ling Feiye did not show up.
According to the normal format, Ling Changsheng, on behalf of the Ling family, first said that he was honored to have many guests come to watch the ceremony, and then said who the celebration was for today. At first, Ling Changsheng said some commonplace things, until he talked about the relationship between Ling Zihao and Lu Yunyou. After a competition, those guests became interested.
Especially after Ling Changsheng deliberately explained Lu Yunyou's identity and mentioned that he also specially invited the star army generals to join in the celebration, the guests, after trying to figure out Ling Changsheng's intentions, were all more interested in today's celebration without exception.
In addition, after Ling Changsheng officially announced that Ling Zihao's cultivation had reached the seventh level of the martial arts realm, representatives from various schools were surprised, especially the young talents. If Ling Zihao really broke through to the seventh level of the martial arts realm, then among them Some people can only look beyond Ling Zihao from now on. Some people who could compete with Ling Zihao will also be eclipsed from now on. This is of course something they don't want to see.
After Ling Changsheng finished what he said, the Ling Mansion became even more lively. Representatives of various families sat together in twos and threes and kept talking about Ling Zihao becoming a seventh-level martial arts cultivator. What changes would this event bring to the Ling family or Wufeng City? It's all part of their discussion.
The Ling Mansion was extremely lively, and the same was true outside the Ling Mansion. In troubled times, the fact that the Ling family could still hold a celebration naturally attracted much attention. Therefore, many city residents gathered together to talk about the current situation and the young talents of the major families in the city. hansome.
Which family has more outstanding descendants, which family has fewer outstanding descendants, which family is developing and growing, and which family is declining and weak, are all topics discussed by everyone. Without exception, whenever someone talks about the Ling family, they are constantly praised. Everyone seems to think that the Ling family is still the same Ling family as before.
In such a chaotic period, the fact that the Ling family can firmly hold the position of being the largest clan is naturally even more awe-inspiring. All in all, for many days, Wufeng City was the most lively today, as if all the effects of the war had dissipated. .
Time passed very quickly. Not long after Lu Yunyou and the others returned to the small courtyard to rest after breakfast, a servant of the Ling family came over and invited Lu Yunyou and the others to attend the celebration.
Two days had passed, and he was still a little nervous when he didn't expect Ling Zihao to compete. If it weren't for Fang Qing and Ni Youbin, Lu Yunyou would have been a bit frightened by himself.
On the way to the venue with the servant, he was slightly flustered and thought of Ling Feiye. Ever since Ling Feiye left the Ling family that day, he had not appeared again. It was as if he was being tempered. He had to face everything alone. Although there were Fang Qing and Ni Youbin accompanied him, but some things could only be faced by him alone. Therefore, just thinking about the upcoming competition between him and Ling Zihao, Lu Yunyou was inevitably a little nervous, but his will to win never changed.
Not long after, the three of them were led by the servant to an open space in front of the Ling family's main hall. The Ling family seemed to want to show off and deliberately set up a high platform in the middle area. It was very large and was obviously used for martial arts.
Three of the four places on the high platform were filled with tables and chairs, leaving only one vacant place as a passage for people to enter and exit. Looking around, the three places where tables and chairs were placed were full of people, including invited guests and the Ling family themselves. The people were enjoying themselves, tasting cakes and drinking fragrant tea.
"Attention, everyone, General Lu is here." It wasn't until someone informed Lu Yunyou that he was coming that many people stopped and looked towards the passage.
Then under the gaze of countless eyes, Lu Yunyou, with his white hair on his head, walked slightly awkwardly between Fang Qing and Ni Youbin, his steps becoming more steady.
Looking at the situation ahead, Lu Yunyou was greatly surprised by the location chosen by the Ling family for the fight and the fact that so many guests were invited. After a quick glance, his eyes happened to stop on a few Star Army personnel.
Looking from a distance, Lu Yunyou immediately saw the hostility shown to him by several people next to Zhang Jiutian. Those people were all around fifty years old, each of them had a strong aura, and they were all dressed in general uniforms. They were fighting with those people for no apparent reason. After the people looked at each other, Lu Yunyou directly looked away from those people.
Unexpectedly, the Ling family was so kind and invited the top military officials of the Star Army to come over. While he was greatly surprised, Lu Yunyou was wondering whether those people's intentions were good or bad.
As he thought about it, he saw the Ling Zixin sisters again not long after. There was a hint of concern in the eyes of the two girls, which warmed his heart.
After smiling at the two women, Lu Yunyou noticed a familiar face not far from the two women. It was a face without any expression. The temperament displayed by that face was indifference to everything. .
But in Lu Yunyou's eyes, that face was full of indescribable brilliance. Even though it was expressionless, it still outshone all the female members of the Ling family next to it. Even the Ling Zixin sisters were no exception. They stood there like a fairy on earth. It was hard to imagine what it would be like if Ling Ziyu suddenly laughed, and he was so excited that it wasn't until he thought of Lin Ruoxi that Lu Yunyou's mood eased.
Looking at Ling Ziyu's cold expression, showing no intention of paying any attention to him, Lu Yunyou was too embarrassed to look any further, so he looked away from Ling Ziyu and unknowingly walked to the edge of the platform. In front of him were Ling Changsheng and a group of senior officials of the Ling family. .
The welcoming ceremony of the Ling family was extremely grand, and Lu Yunyou was personally received by Ling Changsheng.
When he was surprised that the senior officials of the Ling family would leave their seats and come to greet him, Ling Changsheng had already greeted him with a smile on his face: "General Lu, please follow me and take a seat there first."
"To be honest, General, today is a grand gathering of my Ling family. I specially invited several generals to come over as guests. I hope General Lu will not blame me for being abrupt." After Lu Yunyou nodded to him, Ling Changsheng continued: "This is what I do for Lu. I wonder what General Lu thinks of the arena set up for the competition between General and Zihao?"
In such a public occasion, Ling Changsheng did not regard Lu Yunyou as a junior at all, and directly addressed Lu Yunyou by his title, which gave Lu Yunyou enough face.
"Great Elder, you're welcome." Not knowing what kind of medicine Ling Changsheng was selling in his gourd, Lu Yunyou politely agreed, and then continued: "Thanks to the kindness of the Great Elder, Lu will definitely behave well today."
"That's very good," Ling Changsheng nodded with a smile and led Lu Yunyou to Zhang Jiutian and others.
When he and Lu Yunyou looked at each other just now, Zhang Jiutian's eyes were full of surprise. No matter how he looked at it, Lu Yunyou's temperament was very different from before. In his opinion, it was not only the change of Lu Yunyou's hair color, but also the change of his whole person.
In just half a month, Lu Yunyou seemed to have changed. His temperament was obviously calmer than before, and his calmness also gave people a sense of sharpness. The most important thing was that Lu Yunyou's cultivation level was comparable to his. , he has never seen such a strange thing.
As for the generals, when they first observed Lu Yunyou just now, they all felt that Lu Yunyou was not as unbearable as they thought. Especially after Lu Yunyou walked up to them, the five of them were surprised to find that Lu Yunyou was not who others said. A fifth-level martial artist, but his cultivation has almost reached the seventh level of martial arts.
"Late sixth level," after repeatedly confirming that they had read correctly, the five of them muttered silently in their hearts, and then looked at Lu Yunyou again.
