Chapter 106: The Beginning of a Conspiracy
Chapter 106: The Conspiracy Emerges
"Old lady, why are you here?" Ling Xiao couldn't help but exclaim with joy when he saw the person coming.
"Hmph, are you willing to come back?" The person who came was none other than the Ling family's Supreme Elder, he just glanced at Ling Xiao and snorted coldly, as if he was very concerned about Ling Xiao sneaking out of the family.
"Hehe, old lady, don't be angry, you see how rich I have gained this time, this is a loser, this is Xiao Jin, this is Xiao Hei, I have all come to see the old lady" Ling Xiao hugged the little black bear, and pointed to the young unicorn and the golden wolf king and said to the elder Taishang.
"This ...... You got this from the mountain range?" Elder Taishang looked at the three spirit beasts in front of Ling Xiao, and he was shocked in his heart! This kid has raised all the spirit beasts as pets, and he has raised so many of them, and seeing that these spirit beasts are very close to Ling Xiao, it doesn't look like he forcibly brought them back at all. Besides, the golden wind wolf in front of him had already reached the strength of the third order, even if Ling Xiao wanted to forcibly bring it back, he didn't have that ability.
"How did you get it?" Of course, they came with me voluntarily, I guess they all think I'm kind and cute, and I'm easy to get along with," Ling Xiao touched his nose and said very stinkyly.
"Hmph, you kid has a good bragging skills" Elder Taishang knocked on Ling Xiao's head and scolded lightly, his eyes were full of love, but he didn't expect to go out for a while, his apprentice not only brought back three powerful spirit beasts, but also this strength was actually promoted from a middle-level mystic to a middle-level mystic, this Tianbin is really speechless.
"By the way, who came to intercept and kill you just now" Elder Taishang remembered the reason for rushing over just now, and asked Ling Xiao.
As soon as Ling Xiao wanted to speak, another extremely fast figure swept over.
"Laugh, are you okay?" the voice had already come from before the person arrived.
Ling Xiao saw the person who was coming, and immediately responded, "Grandpa, Xiao'er is fine."
As soon as his words fell, Ling Cang had already come to him and looked Ling Xiao up and down, as if he was afraid that his grandson would make a mistake.
"It's okay" Ling Cang breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw the Supreme Elder on the side, and respectfully greeted again, "Ling Cang has seen the Supreme Elder."
"By the way, Shuang'er, come over and meet the old lady and my grandfather" Ling Xiao only then remembered Luo Qingshuang, who had just woken up from meditation, and greeted her.
Luo Qingshuang came to the two elders, and said respectfully with a little shyness: "Luo Qingshuang has seen Old Lady Ling, and has seen Patriarch Ling."
The two elders looked at Luo Qingshuang, who looked like he was very good-looking, and nodded with satisfaction, and secretly praised, "This stinky boy not only brought back so many spirit beasts, but even found his future daughter-in-law, which is really speechless."
"Child, in the future, you can call me Grandpa Ling like Xiao'er, this time I left in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts, next time I will make up for you" Ling Cang said kindly to Luo Qingshuang.
At this time, Elder Taishang didn't know where to get a thin sword, the scabbard of this thin sword was like a red essence, and the carved spirit patterns, like the colorful feathers of a phoenix, were embellished on it, which looked extremely noble and extraordinary.
"Colorful Sword" Ling Xiao recognized at a glance what kind of sword the sword weapon in Elder Taishang's hand was, and his eyes were filled with envy.
This is a second-order high-level sword weapon, when Elder Taishang wanted to accept him as an apprentice, he wanted to get this second-order high-level sword weapon, but Elder Taishang refused to give it, so Ling Xiao could only retreat and ask for the Blue Crystal Sword and the Silver Ghost Blood Knife, but he knew that his two weapons could not withstand the value of this colorful sword.
There are no mysterious weapons, and second-order high-level weapons are the best-grade weapons.
"Take it, this is the old man's gift to you," Elder Taishang handed the sword to Luo Qingshuang and said lightly.
Luo Qingshuang hesitated for a moment, and with the encouragement of Ling Xiao's eyes, she stepped forward to thank Xie and took the colorful sword, and an incomprehensible joy swelled in her heart.
"Okay, let's go back and talk about it," Ling Cang said from the side.
"Wait a minute, I'll go harvest the loot" Ling Xiao nodded, and then began to review the spoils of his battle.
The most valuable thing is the one-horned black snake and its beast pill, as well as snake gall, snake tendons, and snake skin, which are also worth a lot of money, of course, the green wolf's second-order mid-level dragon slaying heavy knife is not an ordinary product.
At this time, Elder Taishang and Ling Cang also noticed the corpses of several poisonous people with severed heads, and a few worried expressions flashed on their faces.
After harvesting the spoils, Ling Xiao first sent Luo Qingshuang back to the Luo family's territory, and then went straight to the family with the two elders.
After two months, he returned to Meteorite City again, and returned to the Ling family, his strength was not what it used to be, and this side of the world had changed dramatically because of him.
......
In a remote and uninhabited part of the city, there is an abandoned manor. The houses on the estate are dilapidated, but they occupy a lot of land, and it is not difficult to guess that this place once had a glorious history.
There used to be a very elegant name here, called Liu Tingxuan.
Originally, this place was decorated with a particularly beautiful building by the owner's house, there are small bridges and flowing water, there are willows rippling, there are pavilions and pavilions Qionglou, so it is called Liu Tingxuan.
It's a pity that this Liu Tingxuan was because of a plague fifty years ago, and more than 100 people in Liu Tingxuan all died under the plague, and since then, no one in Liu Tingxuan has dared to set foot here for half a step.
However, at this time, the short spirit master who was injured by the young qilin appeared here in Liu Tingxuan.
He came to a most inconspicuous old house, walked around for a moment and saw no one, flashed in, and then came to the side of the bed and twisted the bed pole, and the stone bed actually opened slowly.
After a while, the entrance of the underground secret room, which could only accommodate one person, appeared in front of him.
The short man didn't think about it, he jumped straight down, and then the entrance of the underground secret room actually closed together again, and he couldn't tell that this would be the entrance to an underground secret room.
The underground secret room is very spacious, and there are only a few lights in the dark area, which seems extremely quiet and deep.
However, there are no less than a hundred dark shadows standing here.
If Ling Xiao was here, he would definitely find that half of these black shadows were actually poisonous people, each of them was lifeless, their faces were dark blue and hideous, while the other part was all dead people, their complexions were very white and terrifying, and they thought that they had not yet been refined into poisonous people.
In another corner, there was a half-human-tall tripod, and next to it was a large pile of poisonous weeds, which were obviously used to refine the poison pill.
A strong dead air, an unpleasant smell of poisonous weeds, makes people feel deep and terrifying.
After the short spirit master returned to the secret room, he swallowed a few pills in a row, and then sat on the stone bed and meditated.
It took about half an hour before Mo woke up.
"Damn little bastard, how could there be such a powerful spirit beast to help him," the short spirit master muttered to himself through gritted teeth, his eyes full of intense murderous intent.
At this moment, there was a knotted knock above the entrance to the secret room.
The short spirit master flashed impatience, hesitated for a moment, and came out of the secret room.
Above the house, a tall, thin man in a gray robe and covered with a black cloth walked back and forth with his hands behind his back.
The entrance to the secret chamber opened, and the short spirit master jumped up from below.
"Old ghost, thank you for your help this time," the masked man immediately thanked the short spirit master.
"Hmph, don't thank you too early, that kid isn't dead yet," the short spirit master flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly.
"What...... You made such a fuss and didn't kill that kid?" the masked man exclaimed.
He is very clear about the strength of the short man in front of him, it is impossible for him to not even be able to kill a middle-level mysticist, even if he has the help of a spirit beast, it is impossible to miss.
"Who told you to provide wrong information, I thought that he only had a crimson little beast that could make me feel troublesome, but the second-order high-level wind wolf you said is now the third-order wind wolf king, even my beloved snake died under its claws, and there is another terrible spirit beast that almost killed me" The short spirit master said angrily. He didn't know that it was the crimson beast that attacked him from behind, and he mistakenly thought that there was another powerful spirit beast to help Ling Xiao.
"Impossible, the information provided to me by the Li family will not be wrong, that one is obviously a second-order high-level wind wolf, otherwise how could it be surrounded and killed by Li Yuanlong and them" The masked man retorted in disbelief.
"Ling Lao Wu, is it wrong for Lao Tzu to see it with his own eyes, this time not only broke my love snake, but also lost four dead soldiers, it's really a big loss, you don't want to compensate Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu won't do it" The short spirit master yelled at the masked man.
"Old ghost, you have to remember your promise, we must not quit until we take control of the family," the masked man said without looking at weakness.
"You threaten me, I sue you, Ling Lao Wu, no one can threaten me in Meteorite City, if you don't give me a satisfactory reward, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people," the short spirit master looked up and glared at the masked man and said gloomily.
The masked man clenched his fists, and finally let go and said with a smile, "Don't be impulsive, old ghost, after the matter is completed, we will definitely get the medicine tripod you want from the Hidden Weapon Pavilion as a reward."
"This is the pre-agreed reward, and getting me two more artifacts under the other name is to compensate me for the loss of my love snake," the short spirit master said in a non-negotiable tone.
Mysterious weapons, how many pieces can be counted in Meteorite City, this short spirit master actually opened his mouth and said that he wanted two handles, and others would definitely scold him for being a madman.
The masked man was also secretly scolding in his heart, but he still comforted the short spirit master and said, "Old ghost, the mystical weapons in Meteorite City are only the number of slaps, you will ask for two when you open your mouth, where can I get it for you, I can only give you one at most, and how about giving you ten second-order high-level weapons?"
"I'm going to use a second-order high-level weapon, since you can only get one Xuan Weapon, then replace it with your Ling family's Qing-level Xuan Gong," the short spirit master said.
The masked man squinted, his eyes flashed with a few traces of fierceness, and he immediately said, "Okay, I hope you won't let me down in half a year, otherwise I won't be able to do what you said."
"It's natural, as long as you provide enough poisonous weeds, what I promise you will do," the short spirit master promised.
Immediately after, the two talked in place for a while, and the masked person left Liu Tingxuan.
"Stupid fellow, if you dare not keep my promise, I will let your entire family be buried together," the short spirit master scolded inwardly as he looked at the masked man's back as he left.
