133: C133 Compensation for Commitments

C133 Compensation for Commitments

Xia Ling didn't personally deal with these cultivators. The root cause of all this wasn't that he wanted Xia Yanru to make the decision.

and he had even let off a Congealing Void rank cultivator!

The reason was simple, Xia Ling's body no longer supported him doing that.

Even though Xia Ling had already planned to use his incomplete Primordial Spirit weapon as his trump card long before his fight with Lee Wenloong. However, this was a method that greatly consumed the energy of the body, so it had to be avoided no matter what.

Therefore, Xia Ling had even specially planned to sneak in to assassinate Song Shengcheng in the hopes of disturbing Lee Wenloong's strength. However, he didn't expect that this old cultivator wouldn't be affected in the slightest, and even used a secret technique without hesitation!

At this point, Xia Ling had no choice but to forcefully use his Primordial Spirit weapon. Thankfully, the secret technique had only improved the opponent's physical fitness and not their cultivation level. Otherwise, it would be hard to say who would win.

The next day.

In the study room, Xia Ling and Xia Yanru sat facing each other.

Yesterday's sun shone through the windowsill, shining on the pale yellow tabletop. It gave off a warm and serene feeling.

"Second Miss, what plans do you have for the future?" In the silence, Xia Ling was the first to ask.

"What other plans do you have?" There was a trace of indifference in the young girl's gentle voice. It was unknown where her eyes were looking.

"Now that we have provoked Soong Family, Ningnan City definitely cannot stay here any longer. I'll make the best of my time and move the whole family south this morning. "

"What Xia Family needs the most right now is to recuperate. In a situation where the internal structure was unstable and there was no one to follow up, it was already a blessing that the entire clan did not collapse. Perhaps in a few years, I will become a third-rate family. "

It wasn't that Xia Yanru was pessimistic, it was just a cruel fact under the current circumstances. All of the younger generation were destroyed, and the cultivators of the family had a record of betraying their masters and seeking glory. All the centripetal force had been lost.

"I'm afraid it's going to be difficult." Xia Ling said in a euphemistic manner. Xia Family was no longer as strong as they were back then, but the amount of businesses under their names was still numerous, and many of them were still located in the core industries of Ningnan City. Without sufficient strength to protect them, the surrounding powers would always be eyeing them covetously. "

"I'm afraid there's no other way." Xia Yanru sighed and said. He could only wait for his father's strength to gradually recover. After my father's strength recovered, perhaps he could also use the strength of a Congealing Void rank. You should have the ability to protect your family's business. "

Xia Ling pondered for a moment and said, "A family can't just rely on high-end combat power, the cultivators in the middle are the foundation of existence. "If Second Miss doesn't mind, I might be able to help."

Xia Yanru looked up in surprise. Of course she wanted Xia Ling's help. But in the girl's impression, Xia Ling never seemed to have any sense of belonging to this family. He didn't expect that he would actually take the initiative to help her this time.

The young girl was even a little flattered, "This... Would it be too much trouble? "

"It doesn't matter. This is my compensation." Xia Ling said with a smile. "Actually, it's not that difficult for me."

He took out a booklet from his sleeve and gently placed it in front of Xia Yanru.

"This was originally a move left behind by an ancient sect tens of thousands of years ago. After I reversed it, I obtained a part of their cultivation method."

"Although it can only be said to be the power technique of that sect, I still think that it is very valuable. It should be able to enhance the strength of a family."

Xia Yanru's eyes instantly lit up. Ancient sect?

The inheritance of the cultivation techniques of this era was broken to an incredible degree. In many ancient times, there were many famous martial arts techniques and sects, and there weren't even the tiniest bit of legends passed down. But it did not prevent people from yearning and recognizing the previous era.

Because there were many families and sects who had discovered ancient ruins and were unable to handle it!

The four words of an ancient sect had become synonymous with great power! Even if it was just an entrance cultivation technique, it would still have a great value.

As a former head of the family, Xia Yanru immediately thought of how to make full use of this cultivation technique.

it could directly poach people from other Aristocratic Sect. It can cultivate independent forces that are loyal only to themselves. Even if it were directly traded, it would be able to be exchanged for the protection of a certain great power.

There was simply too much to do!

"Really... "Thank you very much …" Even when Xia Yanru said those words, she felt slightly dizzy. If this cultivation technique was real, then they would owe him a great debt.2

Of course, Xia Yanru also believed that Xia Ling wouldn't joke about such a thing!

Xia Ling quickly waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be so polite. I said that this is just some compensation."

Xia Yanru lowered her head and said softly, "No one will blame you for what happened in the secret realm …"

Xia Ling smiled and firmly shook his head: "No, I made that promise, so I will naturally keep it. Whether or not other people will blame me has nothing to do with me. "

Xia Yanru asked, "You still have to leave, don't you?"

Xia Ling nodded.

"Then go and see my father before you go. He has always heard me talk about you, but never saw you. He said he must thank you personally this time. " The young girl wiped away the depressed expression on her face and her smile turned bright once more. It was a happy thing to say goodbye.

"Sure." Xia Ling happily agreed.

Xia Xi Lin, the family of Xia Family, was once a genius cultivator that was rarely seen in Ningnan City, and when he was not even fifty years old, he stepped into the middle stage of Congealing Void. This was indeed an astonishing speed, because this meant that if there were no accidents, he would become another Essencial Core Rank cultivator.

However, not long after he became Ling Xu and Middle Rank cultivator, an unexpected battle caused him to be seriously injured. He could only continue to use healing to maintain his cultivation. It was already impossible for him to continue fighting with others.

It was only until he used Xia Ling's pill that he gradually improved.

He was now able to sit up and occasionally move about on his own. In fact, a year ago, the old man had been paralyzed in his bed.

"Old mister, I've heard a lot about you." After seeing each other, Xia Ling cupped his hands and said without any pretence.

Xia Xi Lin did not let his daughter support him, but slowly stood up on his own two legs. He solemnly bowed to Xia Ling: "Young Hero's great kindness, my Xia Family up and down, will never be forgotten!"

Xia Ling smiled bitterly. He hurried forward to help the old man up and said, "No need to be so polite, no need to be so polite."

However, Xia Xi Lin did not stop there. He stubbornly said, "If I were to receive such a great kindness and not remember it in my heart, what difference is there between him and an animal?"

Since the old man had already said this much, Xia Ling could no longer refuse.

"Logically speaking, even if we were to repay your kindness with everything we have, it would not be excessive." Xia Xi Lin slowly said, "But you might not want something from an aristocratic family like ours. But I think there's something that might help you... "

Xia Ling politely rejected, "Old Mr., really, I don't need to..."

Xia Ling really did not want to get anything else from the Xia Family. He felt that if it was like this, he would be able to leave after returning the favor.

Unexpectedly, Xia Xi Lin said with determination: "Even if you don't need it, please take a look first. I actually think that handing this over to you would be of great use. "

Hearing the old man say this, he couldn't help but have a trace of curiosity rise within him. Just what was this thing that was worthy of such an evaluation?

The Patriarch of the Xia Family bent down and slowly took out a yellowish piece of paper from a small box. It could be seen that this piece of paper had been well-preserved, but it was still difficult to resist the erosion of time.

What was this?

The old man said slowly, "I stumbled upon this when I was traveling a few years ago. He had wanted to explore when he became stronger, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen. So it's better to leave it for you … "

"... This should be a map of the ruins of an ancient sect, and most of the words on it couldn't be seen clearly. However, I can just make it out that this is a sect called the Grand Dominance Sect. "

What! Grand Dominance Academy? Xia Ling raised his head in surprise.
