However, Leng Lingqi was his niece after all, and he couldn't do it herself. He cared about her own reputation because she didn't want to be laughed at by the world.
Leng Lingqi stared deadly at Leng Xingyi.
Leng Xingyi brought Xuan Ling to the secret room. In Leng house, only Old Master Leng had the right to enter the secret room, so this was the safest place.
"Enough," Xuan Ling interrupted Leng Xingyi. "After all these years have passed, you still haven't changed one bit, and you can do anything for the sake of your own reputation."
She knew that she could no longer count on Leng Xingyi, and could only leave and return to the Demon race to report.
"Leng Xingyi, it would be best if you could offer the treasures to the demon race. Otherwise, I can't guarantee how long you can hide those ugly things back then."
Xuan Ling's threat made Leng Xingyi understand the meaning of killing intent, but in the end, he did not make a move and allowed Xuan Ling to leave.
Originally, she and Xuan Ling had already agreed that as long as he didn't interfere during the process of Xuan Ling seizing the treasures, then they would definitely not mention those things from back then.
This time, Xuan Ling was not able to snatch the treasure, if not for him helping out to save her, she might not even be able to live. However, Xuan Ling did not thank him because of this, but instead forced him to help to snatch the treasure, hah!
Leng Xingyi couldn't help but let out a helpless sigh. In this life, Xuan Ling was the person he couldn't find a choice the most.
On the other side, Li Xuntian had already returned to the Demon race.
The Demon Lord sensed Li Xuntian's return, but didn't ask him about it in a hurry.
On the other hand, Li Xuntian opened his mouth first, "Royal father, are you really only calling me back to discuss the internal conflict?"
Li Xuntian was still a little doubtful in his heart. Although he knew that the Demon Lord would not joke around with him over such matters, he still valued Leng Lingqi's safety.
"The internal strife is definitely true. Do you even have to doubt it?" The Demon Lord's voice was somewhat sullen. It seemed that his son was truly different from before. He actually dared to doubt his decision.
Li Xuntian knew what the Demon Lord meant, but he was not the least bit afraid, "This son naturally does not doubt it, I only feel that there's something fishy about it."
Li Xuntian frowned, "Royal father, the reason you are asking this question is because your goal is not just internal strife, right?"
Li Xuntian seemed to understand a little that the Demon Lord had called him back because of the internal conflict within the Demon race, but dealing with Leng Lingqi at the same time was also according to his plans.
The Demon Lord sneered, "The internal strife is related to the future of our demon race. As for that woman, this sovereign has his own plans, so you don't need to worry about her. "
Li Xuntian's heart suddenly tensed up, "Royal father, why do you need to care so much about being like a woman?
"That Heavenly Treasure might be of great use, but it is more likely that it will affect the future of our demon race. This sovereign is determined to get it, and since you refused, this sovereign could only send someone else." The Demon Lord did not believe Li Xuntian's words, but they were all unimportant, and he had already settled the matter.
Li Xuntian secretly clenched his fists, he was now filled with regret and regret, he knew that based on the Demon Lord's personality, if he asked her to let him go this time, it would only be the opposite.
"Tian, you need to know that you are the future of our demon race. You can't just ignore other great matters for a woman, do you understand?" Li Xuntian endured the anger in his heart and nodded with difficulty.
Seeing that the Demon Lord had stopped talking, Li Xuntian slowly asked, "Does Royal Father remember what the Magus said back then?"
The Demon Lord thought back, "If I say it's related to you, you have to do it." So what? As long as the Heavenly Treasure is acquired, the result will be the same. "
Seeing that he had finally finished speaking, Li Xuntian immediately followed up, "Since it has to be me, then there must be a reason behind the old witch's words. Don't tell me that royal father doesn't listen to the old witch's orders?
The Demon Lord changed his mind. In all these years, the old witch was regarded as someone of high virtue and prestige. The thing that he had calculated accurately was that anyone would dare to say one more word, and that would be fighting against fate.
Li Xuntian had already understood that the person the Demon Lord had sent was probably Xuan Ling.
A woman must endure this trial!
This time, he clearly knew that Leng Lingqi was in danger, but he couldn't help. Fortunately, when he left, he gave Leng Lingqi a protective talisman, allowing her to notify him when she was in danger. Until now, he hadn't felt anything, which also meant that Leng Lingqi wasn't in danger yet.
Li Xuntian had always harbored this belief in his heart, so he forced himself to stay calm and discuss the internal conflict with the Demon Lord.
This time, the Demon Lord did not say anything, he had decided to believe Li Xuntian for the time being.
And the reason Li Xuntian was so anxious, was because the mental energy he left in Leng Lingqi's body was growing weaker and weaker.
Li Xuntian didn't want to waste even a second and rushed in the direction of the Kingdom of Zi Ling.
After Li Xuntian left, the Demon Lord fell into deep thought. He too, did not know whether his choice was right or wrong.
Just as he was lost in thought, the messenger crow flew over to him and landed on his shoulder. The Demon Lord took out the slip of paper and looked at it carefully, deep in thought. "I don't know if this is a blessing or a disaster."
The paper note was sent by Xuan Ling, and she reported the situation truthfully.
"Leng Lingqi, if you fail to pass this trial, then I was wrong about you. You must live on." Li Xuntian thought in his heart, but his heart was beating uncontrollably fast.
All along the way, Li Xuntian seemed to be extremely worried about Leng Lingqi's situation, and their speed became faster and faster.
