Chapter 24

Ling Xiao's anger rises in her heart. Damn it, she has been repelled and provoked for many times from outside all the way up to now. Who can bear it.

Ling Xiao is biting his teeth and his eyes are red with anger. The skin of his mouth has been bitten and blood is flowing out. His body is bent and bent up. But he still insists that his hand has been put on the dragon sword behind him. It seems that he is ready to fight to death.

"Enough" Ling Mo, the second elder above the five elders, shakes up the five elders' prestige with one hand.

As soon as the pressure is over, Ling Xiao feels that his body and mind are relaxed, and a mouthful of blood is about to gush out, but he is directly suppressed by his stubborn nature.

Ling Xiao sneered at the five elders and said, "the little one has come, the old one. Are you going to bully the little one with the big one?".

Ling Yan didn't know Ling Rui was humiliated by Ling Xiaoxiu. He was immediately displeased and said, "what do you mean by that? I just follow the meaning of the elders and try to see if you can really cultivate Xuanli.".

"Oh, that's so. I've wronged the five elders," Ling said with a smile. Then he said, "I thought it was the five elders who came out for your grandson, but I think the fifth elder's husband is very private. I don't believe he will cover up anyone who is disrespectful to the patriarch, right?".

Ling Yan didn't listen carefully. He immediately nodded and said, "that's nature.".

Ling Xiaoxiao said, "that's good." then he looked up to the elders and said, "someone insulted me in public at the door just now. Originally, it's no big deal. In the past two years, Ling Xiao has been numb and won't care about anything with others. But I have to dare to ask the elders, what's the crime if the Ling family's children speak disrespectfully to the patriarch?".

Ling smile a solemn words, let the elders have to sit in the cast inexplicable eyes.

Finally, Ling Wei, the four elders in charge of punishment, said that "if the children of the Ling family disrespect the patriarch, they should abolish Xuanli and expel the Ling family.".

"The crime should abolish Xuanli, expel Ling family"!

This sentence, like the morning bell of an ancient tomb, made Ling Yan's eyes jump a few times, and his mind became a little uneasy.

Ling Xiao straightened his waist, looked around at the elders sitting, and finally fell on Ling Yan, asked faintly, "dare to ask five elders, am I the direct grandson of the patriarch?".

Five elder old eyebrows slightly jump, undeniably nodded a way "this is natural, but this concerns you to say of matter have what relevance?".

"Of course, it's related. It's very related," Ling Xiao said.

Ling Mo, the second elder, said impatiently, "speak quickly if you have something to say.".

Ling smiles and looks at the second elder, then falls on the fifth elder and says, "can elder brother Ling Rui be your grandson?".

Ling Yan, the five elders, was unhappy and said, "it's natural. The elders who are sitting here are looking at his birth.".

"What if someone called Ling Rui a bastard? This... "Ling said with a faint smile.

Before he finished speaking, Ling Yan clapped the table and started to shout angrily, "who dares to be bold, I'll kill his family.".

"Five elder don't get angry, I just if, in fact, no one in the family dare to offend five elder you," Ling said with a dry smile.

Ling Yan glared angrily and said with a smile, "are you finished? You've got to pull the topic away.".

At this time, the four elder Ling Wei also said in a deep voice, "Ling Xiao, if you have something to say, don't beat around the Bush any more.".

Ling Xiao answered "yes" to the four elders, and then he said, "just now, before deacon Lingtao and I entered the inner courtyard, my cousin Lingrui spoke ill to me and insulted me as a hybrid. Just now, the five elders also admitted that I was the direct grandson of the patriarch. I believe all the elders sitting here can testify for me. Dare to ask the four elders and the five elders, is this disrespect to the patriarch?".

Ling Xiao's words changed the faces of the elders, especially Ling Yan's desire to live tore Ling Xiao's appearance.

"Nonsense, I don't believe my unruly grandson would say such treacherous words," Ling Yan stood up and cheered.

"This matter Ling Tao deacon can do evidence" Ling Xiao pointed to stand in the corner of Ling Tao road.

At this time, Ling Tao stood up and said, "yes, Ling Rui really insulted Ling Xiao as a bastard.".

His words were very powerful. He only said that Ling Rui called Ling Xiao a bastard. I didn't say that he insulted the patriarch. His words were notarized to the elders, but everyone knew that the meaning of his words was self-evident.

"It's too shameful to say such rebellious words." three elders Ling Yuan raised his eyes like lines and said faintly.

Ling Yan took a look at Ling Yuan. He didn't dare to speak any more. He sat back in his seat, but his fists were tight.

At this time, Ling Mo said, "children's jokes should not be true.".As soon as Ling Mo's words came out, all the elders who were sitting there didn't speak any more. The three elders just cast a glance at Ling Cang who was sitting there, and then squinted again.

Ling Xiao suddenly burst out laughing, "ha ha... Ha ha...".

His voice was heard all over the attic.

Ling Wei hummed coldly, "don't make noise in the meeting hall!".

Ling Xiao shouts to Ling Wei with a restrained smile, "I heard that the fourth elder is the most honest elder in the family, and now it's just the same. Just now I asked the fifth elder, if someone insults Ling Rui as a bastard, it's disrespectful to the fifth elder. He's going to kill other people's family, but now Ling Rui insults me as a bastard? Isn't it disrespectful to the patriarch? Just now, elder four, you said that Xuanli should be expelled from the family. However, you dare not convict him just because elder two said, "children's joking words should not be true."? If Ling Rui was just a three-year-old child, I would not agree with him, but he is already an adult who has held a rite of passage, and he must be responsible for what he said. Would the second elder and the fourth elder want to ignore the patriarch Yan Wei? ".

Ling Xiao's every sentence is sonorous and powerful, every sentence arouses people's deep consciousness, every sentence bangs people's heart, just like a sharp blade piercing the hearts of the elders!

"That's right. It's right to abolish his Xuanli and drive him out of the family." Ling Yuan, the three elders, looked at the smile of Ling Xiao and agreed. But it seems that the smile is worse than the cry. He has too much fat.

"Yes, Ling Rui should be severely punished." the second one is elder six.

Then, the seven elders and nine elders began to echo.

Only the eight elders looked at the two elders and didn't speak.

Ling Wei, the fourth elder, and Ling Yan, the fifth elder, are all staring at Ling Xiao. The former is thoughtful and seems to want to see through Ling Xiao, while the latter is gnashing teeth and deep hatred.

The two elders just glanced at Ling Xiao and continued to knock on the chair with their fingers. They didn't speak any more.

Ling Cang, the patriarch sitting on the top, has not spoken up until now. He just sits quietly and seems to have fallen asleep. His ears don't hear things outside the window.

For a long time, the four elders sighed and said, "according to Article 19 of the clan rules, Ling Rui will abolish his Xuanli and expel his family if he is disrespectful to the clan leader.".

As soon as the four elders said this, the five elders first enlisted and swallowed their anger. Then they stood up. Then they bowed to Ling Cang and said, "patriarch, Ling Yan teaches sun Wufang. Please be very kind and take it easy.".

At this moment, Ling Cang raised his eyes and finally spoke. He said faintly, "because Ling Rui is young and ignorant, he is specially allowed to avoid abolishing Xuanli and expel his family, but he must be punished to face the wall in the back mountain for half a year.".

Five elders a joy, immediately thanks way.

"Well, the purpose of summoning the elders here today is to discuss Ling Xiao's return to the inner court, and ask the elders to express their opinions," Ling Cang said.

Ling Cang's words just fall, three elder Ling Yuan immediately echo a way "I agree".

Then, the second elder Ling Mo also said, "I have no problem.".

Then, all the elders agreed. If there was no one vote against it, the five elders didn't dare to disagree at this time.

Originally today, he planned to make trouble for Ling Xiao, but he was preempted by Ling Xiao and almost let him down. He wrote down the account.

"Well, it's settled. In the future, Ling Xiao can go in and out of the inner courtyard at will, allow him to read the Xuanji from the first to the second floor of Cangji Pavilion, get a first-order weapon, and allow him to participate in the family test a month later. Today's meeting is over." Ling Cang announced Ling Xiao's affairs, and immediately waved his hand to finish the meeting. Then he said, "Ling Xiao stay.".

Ling Xiao, who is about to turn around, stops. After all the elders go out, Ling Cang waves his hand and the door is closed.

Ling Xiao is very envious of Ling Cang's skill, which can be achieved only when the Xuanli level is open to the outside world, and only when the Lingshi level is able to control the power at will!

Ling Cang sat down from the table, gazed at Ling and said with a smile, "child, do you hate your grandfather?".

At the moment, Ling Cang didn't have the dignity of a superior. What he had was the peace of a grandfather.

Ling Xiao didn't know why she felt sour in her heart. She immediately said, "at the beginning, I hated why my grandfather was so cruel and ignored my family. I hated why my grandfather didn't come to see Xiao'er for two years. I hated why I wasn't born in an ordinary family, so I could play and grow up happily with my grandfather.".

At this point, Ling Cang sighed, don't cross the face, don't let the old tears flow out from the eyes.

Then Ling Xiao said, "but after I met my grandfather today, I don't hate him any more. As the head of my family, my grandfather takes family interests first. Ling's family is a big family in meteorite City, and other families are eyeing him. If he wants to replace Ling's family, he has to take care of everyone and abandon his family. What's more, the family's worries are still unresolved, How can grandfather take care of our family? So Xiaoer no longer hates her grandfather.Ling Cang looks at Ling to smile and talk again, old tears finally gush up, fortunately he is in time and didn't let it flow out.

Ling Cang walked to Ling Xiao and patted her on the shoulder heavily, saying, "I feel relieved that Ling Cang has such a sensible son like you.".

"Grandfather is serious, but I still hope that grandfather can take time out of his busy schedule to see my father and mother. They have not been happy these years," Ling said softly.

Ling Cang nodded and said, "I've suffered a lot for your family these years. I hope zhan'er and Xi Yun don't blame me for this old man. In fact, my grandfather doesn't want to unload the burden of clan leader and enjoy the happiness of Tianlun in his later years.".

Ling Xiao then said, "no, I want a patriarch's grandfather. It's so windy!"
