Chapter 127: The Shocked Ling Cang (I)

As the family Dabi approached, Ling Xiao was still meditating in the room.

I saw that his expression was solemn, his palms were placed in front of his lower abdomen, and his whole body exuded a cold momentum, and what was even more peculiar was that the light around him was sometimes golden, sometimes red, sometimes white, and finally gray.

The change of color, over and over again, is extremely magical.

"Knock knock!" there was a knock on the door, and then the voice of the lone eagle sounded from outside, "Young master, the family has an urgent matter, please go to the inner courtyard."

Ling Xiao opened his eyes, and the whole person stood up, his temperament was obviously better than before, making people feel even more heroic and extraordinary.

"Well, I see," he replied lightly, then got up and got dressed and walked out.

Duying had been waiting for a long time, and immediately whispered to Ling Xiao, "It's about the family competition."

There are many things that don't need to be ordered by Ling Xiao, Duying has to figure things out in advance, and then report to Ling Xiao as soon as possible, he is already completely proud of Ling Xiao's servant.

Ling Xiao nodded, and did not rush directly to the inner courtyard, but went to the hall to enjoy breakfast first, and then walked towards the inner courtyard without hurrying.

At this moment, the patriarch and the eight elders in the inner courtyard had all arrived, and there were still nine young people standing here.

These nine young men were all in good spirits, with extraordinary temperaments, and their expressions were extremely cold and arrogant.

They are the leaders of the younger generation of the Ling family, and they are the representatives who represent the Ling family in the big competition.

A year ago, the top five people in the Ling family's test were all there except for Ling Xiao, the second elder's grandson Ling Kuang, the fourth elder's granddaughter Ling Bin, the patriarch's grandson Ling Li, and the fifth elder's grandson Ling Xing.

Ling Kuang and Ling Bin had already broken through the Xuanshi rank, and Ling Li, who was still a high-level Xuanshi at the time of the family test, had also broken through to the Xuanshi in the past six months, while Ling Xing had failed to break through, probably because Ling Xiao defeated him, and caused the inner demon, he was very poor in strength here.

Now, a year ago, four of the top five in the family test were at the Xuanshi rank, and all the elders of the Ling family were particularly pleased with this.

It's just that there is one person who did not come, and some people are not very happy.

"It's been half an hour, don't wait, the patriarch will announce anything to save everyone time here," the fifth elder said impatiently to the patriarch Ling Cang.

Ling Cang said indifferently, "Then let's start", and then he stood up and said to the nine young people in the hall, "The quadrennial family competition is coming, you will fight on behalf of the glory of the family, I hope you all return triumphantly in this competition, and ......add glory to my Ling family."

After Ling Cang talked for a while, he went to the second elder to speak, all of them saying some words of encouragement.

After the first four elders spoke one after another, they went to Ling Cang and said, "You are all good men of the Ling family, do you have the confidence to win the top ten or even the first place in this competition?"

"Yes!" shouted the nine in unison.

"Okay, the three elders will give you the elixir later, and then, you can also go to the Hidden Artifact Pavilion to choose the right weapon for you," Ling Cang said.

Just when the three elders were distributing the pills to the nine people, Ling Xiao finally came late.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were on Ling Xiao.

"Ling Xiao has seen the patriarch and all the elders," Ling Xiao saluted to Ling Cang, who was sitting up.

"Why are you late?" Ling Cang asked angrily. He really felt a headache for his grandson, why did he make something wrong every time.

"Patriarch Hui, I'm practicing and I've forgotten the time," Ling Xiao replied.

"Thinking that you have worked so hard, forget it this time, don't take it as an example, go to the side to get the pill," Ling Cang said.

"I don't think this is appropriate," the fifth elder really wouldn't let go of the opportunity to hit Ling Xiao. He had already hated Ling Xiao in his heart.

"Fifth Elder, what do you think?" Ling Cang asked indifferently.

"Ling Xiao was late in summoning and deserved to be punished, but because he was working hard to cultivate, he could be exempted from heavy punishment, but he was not allowed to receive pills and weapons as a punishment, otherwise anyone could come late in the future in the name of practicing martial arts, this is clearly contempt for the Elders' Council, which makes our Elders' Council serve the people" The Fifth Elder said in a heartfelt manner. []

The fifth elder had a good calculation, and he used Ling Xiao's late arrival as an excuse to cut off Ling Xiao's chance to choose the pill and weapon. You must know that above the big competition are the elites of the major families, and they will all carry the best elixirs of the family and the best weapons to fight, so that they can increase their combat power several times.

If Ling Xiao didn't have pills and high-level weapons, then he would suffer a lot in the competition. Because the game is one after another, until the final winner is decided, each game will be consumed, if there is no elixir recovery, even after winning, the next game will be more disadvantaged, and the same is true for the convenience of weapons, you will take a low-level weapon and the opponent's high-level weapon to bombard, sooner or later the army will be destroyed.

Anger flashed in Ling Cang's eyes, and he was just about to speak, but Ling Xiao took the lead and smiled, "Patriarch, the fifth elder is right, Ling Xiao is willing to be punished, I don't want this elixir and weapons."

At this time, all the elders and the nine younger generations present all looked surprised at Ling Xiao.

"Could it be that Elder Taishang has something good for him?" the thought flashed through everyone's minds.

Of course, Ling Cang also thought of this, so he nodded, "Then do what the Fifth Elder wants, and they will all disperse", and then he smiled at Ling with the sound transmission method, "Hun boy, come with me to the inner hall."

The elders dispersed, and the nine members of the younger generation also left one by one, but two hostile eyes swept past Ling Xiao, and Ling Xiao didn't mind this.

Ling Xiao's cousin Ling Li walked up to him and whispered, "I didn't expect you to walk in front of me again, but sooner or later I will surpass yours."

Ling Xiao knew that his cousin was a cultivator and had no intention of attacking him, so he replied, "I'll wait for you."

Everyone dispersed, and Ling Xiao followed Ling Cang to the inner hall.

"Xiao'er, you are really getting more and more presumptuous," Ling Cang shouted with a cold expression.

"Grandpa, I'm really in retreat, if it weren't for you to call me, I'm afraid I'm still cultivating," Ling Xiao explained.

"I've asked people to invite you for a long time, and you're still grinding, don't you think you can be proud and complacent if you have grown in cultivation?" Ling Cang said angrily.

"Don't dare" Ling Xiao hurriedly bowed down and said, he knew that the old man was angry this time.

Ling Cang sighed and said, "Forget it, I have two bottles of pills here, you can take them first." With that, he took out two bottles of pills and handed them to Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao took the pill and opened it to see that it was actually the second-order Muscle Pill and the Wind Pill, but the quality was too poor, obviously the alchemist who had refined this pill was only a beginner level.

Ling Xiao muttered in his heart, "It's a shame that this kind of colored elixir is embarrassed to take it out."

Ling Xiao's expression fell into Ling Cang's eyes, and Ling Cang thought that he didn't understand the pill, so he explained, "One bottle is a higher-level healing pill than Huilu Dan, and the other bottle is the Wind Pill, which can be taken when you encounter an invincible opponent during the competition, but you must not be careless, I believe that the Li and Luo families will have these two pills."

Ling Xiao covered the bottle, put the two bottles of pills on the table and said, "Grandpa, these two bottles of pills are too bad, and the effect may not be very good, I think you should keep them."

"You kid, I know that Elder Taishang is protecting you, and he should also give you the pill to spare, but this second-order pill Elder Taishang is not very common, you don't want it, do you want to be angry with Grandpa!" Ling Cang said angrily.

Ling Xiao shook his head, took out two bottles of pills from the space ring, and put them in front of Ling Cang, "Grandpa, what do you think this is?"

Ling Cang took Ling Xiao's pill suspiciously, then opened it to take a look, and then covered it and said, "It turns out that you already have these two pills, but Grandpa will also keep them for you first, in case you will use them in the future."

"No, grandpa, you can compare your two bottles with my two bottles," Ling Xiao said.

Ling Cang opened all four bottles of pills according to his words, and in such a comparison, he found that the quality of his two bottles of pills was indeed too rubbish.

"It seems that Elder Taishang still has a collection of good things, since this is the case, then I will take it back" Ling Cang smiled bitterly, and then put away his two bottles of pills.

"Grandpa, you can even take these two bottles from me, I don't need them anyway," Ling Xiao said.

"Bastard, do you know how many gold coins these two bottles of pills are worth, even if they are in the family, there are only a dozen or so bottles of collection, besides, this is given to you by Elder Taishang, his old man doesn't want you to make any mistakes above Dabi, what's the use of you giving them to Grandpa" Ling Cang shouted loudly.

The second-order elixir was extremely precious in Meteorite City, and he thought that Ling Xiao didn't know how powerful it was, so he immediately severely reprimanded Ling Xiao to prevent him from becoming too arrogant.

"Grandpa, don't be angry first, look at what these are" Ling Xiao instantly took a dozen bottles of pills and put them in front of Ling Cang as if he was doing a trick.

At this time, Ling Cang was shocked, he opened them continuously and looked at these pills, they were all second-order pills, in addition to the Muscle Building Pill and the Flying Pill, there were also Essence Qi Pill and Zengshi Pill......

"You...... How can you have so many pills, could it be that this is Elder Taishang's lifelong collection" Ling Cang muttered in surprise, then he looked up at Ling Xiao and asked, "Xiao'er, you are honest, what happened to Elder Taishang?"

"What's wrong?" Ling Xiao asked inexplicably.

"He's an old man, isn't he...... Traveling west, riding a crane?" Ling Cang asked with a look of pain.

"Grandpa, what are you talking nonsense, although I haven't seen the old lady for a while, but I don't think the old lady will be so light-hearted...... Journey to the West, right?" Ling Xiao replied speechlessly.

"Then why do you have so many pills, and what is the matter with the space ring in your hand, isn't it all passed on to you by the Supreme Elder?" Ling Cang asked.

Ling Xiao suddenly realized, it turned out that his grandfather thought that Elder Taishang had passed away, and then passed on all the belongings to him, and his grandfather really thought long-term.

"Grandpa, you misunderstood, these pills are all refined by myself," Ling Xiao said frankly.

"You...... Did you refine it?" Ling Cang was shocked at this moment, and his eyes were full of doubt.

So, Ling Xiao briefly explained how he became an alchemist.

The more Ling Cang on the side listened, the more surprised he became, and finally laughed out loud, "Okay...... Okay, I didn't expect my Ling family to be able to produce a medicine refining master again, God bless my Ling family."

"In the past, some of our Ling family ancestors were also alchemists?" Ling Xiao asked rhetorically.
