He knew that cultivating the fleshly body was more difficult than refining Qi. Furthermore, it was extremely painful. The later one reached the stage, the more resources would be consumed, and the harder it would be to break through.
"Ha ha!" He looked at Ling Yun with a hint of disdain: "Thank you, fifth brother, for your concern. My eyes are very good, but I heard that my fifth brother was beaten half to death by someone outside not too long ago. I thought that he was recuperating in the Battle King's Mansion.
Isn't fifth brother afraid of getting beaten to death because of his injuries? That would consume quite a bit of the clan's resources.
Even though the clan did not put those resources in their eyes, it cannot be wasted on a trash that cannot cultivate right? One must know that those resources are enough to create a Martial King. "
Hearing Ling Ye's vicious words, Lingyun did not have much of a reaction. All these years, he had heard these words countless times. At the beginning, he was somewhat angry, but later on he was already used to it.
The most important thing was that he was no longer a trash, but an early warrior.
In addition, with his level of intelligence, how could he possibly care about such matters with a little kid?
Indeed, in his eyes, Ling Ye was just a little kid.
However, he could endure it. Qin Yinyue, who was at the side, could not tolerate it. Lingyun was her fiancé and she had long accepted it. How could she allow others to humiliate Lingyun?
She knew, Ling Yun hated people calling him trash the most, and being unable to cultivate had always been Ling Yun's pain.
She had once swore that if Ling Yun couldn't cultivate, then she would protect him forever, and never leave this life.
"Ling Ye, you're not allowed to say Big Brother Ling Yun's rubbish. If you say another word, do you believe that I'll beat you up?" A cold light appeared in Qin Yinyue's beautiful eyes. She looked at Ling Ye coldly, and an aura was gradually emitted from her body. She had reached the consummate stage of the warrior.
"Also, what qualifications do you have to call Big Brother Ling Yun a trash? Don't you forget how you were beaten up by Big Brother Ling Yun until you looked like a dead dog half a year ago?"
Hearing Qin Yinyue's words, Ling Ye's body involuntarily trembled. He was both afraid and jealous. He was afraid because he knew Qin Yinyue's temper. If he knew about anyone who dared to hurt or speak nonsense about Ling Yun, he would definitely beat them up.
As for resistance, they didn't have the strength to do so because Qin Yinyue's talent was better than theirs. She was also fifteen years old, but her realm was already at the peak of martial warrior, so she could easily defeat them.
Furthermore, even if they could defeat Qin Yinyue, they wouldn't dare to do so. The people of the Duke of Qin's residence had always been protective of the young one, and once they bullied the young one, the old one would come and avenge the young one.
Especially since Qin Yinyue was the only girl among the younger generation of the Qin family, she was doted on by everyone in the family. It would be strange if her brothers didn't come and beat her up.
The Old Ancestor of the Qin Clan was a genuine expert of the Martial Saint Realm, second only to the Imperial Family's Old Ancestor of the Ling Family. In other words, he was a quasi-Saint.
Jealousy, on the other hand, was due to Qin Yinyue protecting Ling Yun, the trash who could not cultivate, so why was he, Ling Yun, so lucky and so spoiled? Royal Grandfather doted on him, and his resources often slanted in his direction, so much so that even the number one beauty of Ling Xiao City's younger generation was his fiancée.
"Alright, Yue Er!" Then, his gaze turned towards the extremely ugly Ling Ye. He said faintly, "In half a year, it will be the day of the next Heaven's Pride Competition. When the time comes, we will decide who is the true trash of the arena."
The crowd went into an uproar. In the entire Ling Xiao City, who didn't know that the Crown Prince was unable to cultivate? In these past few years, he had expended a lot of resources in order to refine his body to the late stage of the first transition.
As for Prince Chen's son, Ling Ye, he had broken through to the Late warrior realm one month ago. After half a year, he would most likely become a Martial Master. Could it be that Ling Yun was stunned, and did not even know these things?
Even Qin Yinyue looked at Ling Yun with a puzzled expression. In her impression, Ling Yun was not such an impulsive person.
However, she blamed all of this on Ling Ye. If it were not for him, Ling Yun would not have proposed that the two would have a showdown in half a year. He could not help but look at Ling Ye with cold eyes, full of anger.
"Hahahaha!" Ling Ye laughed heartily, and stopped laughing. He looked at Ling Yun with a sinister smile and said: "Alright, this is what you said. I did not force you, but I hope that you do not run away when the time comes."
Lingyun looked at Ling Ye, who had achieved his goal. Ignoring the look Qin Yinyue gave him, Ling Yun said calmly, "A lord's word cannot be kept up with!"
With a cold smile towards Ling Yun, Ling Ye turned around and left.
"Brainless!" "What a conceited fellow." Ling Yun shook his head, and said indifferently.
"Big brother Ling Yun, why did you ask for a fight with Ling Ye? Although he doesn't have much talent, with King Chen's personality, he will definitely use any means possible to improve his strength. He will definitely become a Martial Master in half a year."
Qin Yinyue looked at Ling Ye leaving complacently, gritting his teeth in anger. Her delicate fists were clenched so hard that it sounded like she was an angry tiger and wanted nothing more than to pounce on Ling Ye and tear him to pieces.
Of course, if Ling Yun was not here, she would definitely rush up to Ling Ye and beat him up. His gentleness was only shown in front of Ling Yun.
"Yue Er, you have no confidence in me!" Ling Yun helplessly facepalmed as he looked speechlessly at Qin Yinyue.
"No, that's not it!" Qin Yinyue immediately shook her head and stuttered. "It's … it's just that …"
"Alright," Ling Yun patted Qin Yinyue's shoulder. He naturally knew that Qin Yinyue was worried about him, worried that he would receive Ling Ye's revenge half a year later.
However, Ling Yun had even killed Martial Emperors, so how could he be afraid of a mere Martial Master? He looked at Qin Yinyue with shining eyes and said gently, "Yue Er, trust your big brother Ling Yun. From now on, let me protect you."
How could he not know what Qin Yinyue had done for him these past few years?
Qin Yinyue's body trembled slightly. She raised her head to look at Ling Yun and suddenly felt that his big brother Ling Yun had become different. His eyes were filled with confidence and indifference, as if he would not panic even if the sky collapsed …
It took Qin Yinyue half a minute to recover her wits. She gave Ling Yun a gentle smile, and said gently, as if there were hundreds of flowers blooming: "Yue'er is waiting for Big Brother Ling Yun to protect her."
Looking at the smiling young lady in front of him, Ling Yun's heart couldn't help but think of a beautiful woman. Standing alone under the cold moonlight, looking at the moon, it was as if he was missing someone.
Lingyun could not help but raise his hand and caress Qin Yinyue's face.
"Big Brother Ling Yun!" Qin Yinyue's bashful voice suddenly entered Ling Yun's ears. Only then did she come back to her senses, and what was in front of him was not that beautiful figure, but the bashful Qin Yinyue. With an apologetic smile, Ling Yun retracted his hand.
Qin Yinyue could not help but become confused. However, her heart was filled with pain, as if something precious had been snatched away from her.
The woman's sixth sense told her that Lingyun was thinking about another woman. That woman in Lingyun's heart was not inferior to her, and he could not help but feel a surge of jealousy.
At the same time, he was also a little curious. Who could cause Lingyun to be so distracted, to ignore this beautiful young lady?
Lingyun let out a sigh, his eyes revealing traces of guilt.
He muttered in his heart: "Chi Yue, a hundred years have passed, are you still well?"
He was Ling Yun's confidante from his previous life, the precious daughter of Emperor Mingyue, the daughter of the Hao Yue Holy Land. He had originally wanted to wait until he had broken through to the Martial Emperor realm before going to the Hao Yue Holy Land to propose for marriage, but he never expected that his plans would not be able to keep up with his expectations. He was plotted against, died, and only his soul was brought back by the Supreme Pagoda to be reincarnated.
Lingyun suddenly felt that he was very shameless. He wasn't a man, with his fiancee in front of him, and he was thinking about another woman.
However, how could it be possible for him to forget the image that lingered in his mind? It was obviously impossible to give up on Qin Yinyue.
A hundred years had passed. With her personality, she would definitely wait for another hundred years for him. Thus, he absolutely could not forget about her.
He was utterly unable to repay the deep feelings the two women had for him.
Seeing the dumbstruck Ling Yun again, Qin Yinyue suppressed the thoughts in her heart. Her eyebrows knitted slightly, lightly touching Ling Yun, as she said with some dissatisfaction: "Big Brother Ling Yun, what are you daydreaming about now? "Why do I see that you look like you have a lot on your mind?"
"Nothing." Ling Yun came back to his senses, and shook his head. He forcefully suppressed the ripples in his heart, and forced a smile towards Qin Yinyue.
Although polygamy could be found on this continent. The more women a man had, the more outstanding he would prove himself to be. However, he felt that it was unfair to the females.
"Let's go back!" Looking at the Ling Yun who was a little distracted, Qin Yinyue did not have the mood to continue playing. Anyone who knew that their fiance was thinking about another woman in front of them would feel uncomfortable.
She really wanted to ask Lingyun who that woman was and how did they get to know each other, but due to a girl's reservation, the considerate her did not ask.
"En!" Ling Yun nodded lightly.
The two of them walked towards the Duke of Qin's residence in silence. Qin Yinyue was no longer as excited and lively as she was before. She didn't say anything, and Ling Yun didn't know what to say either.
The two of them walked in silence as the sky gradually turned dark.
Qin Yinyue clenched her teeth. This fool, wasn't it because he didn't want to say anything? Her two small hands played with the corners of her clothes.
The two of them quickly arrived at the Duke of Qin's mansion and looked at the resplendent and golden mansion. Two lifelike lion statues stood outside the gates, their large eyes staring fearfully at the passersby.
Ling Yun stopped in his tracks, and Qin Yinyue followed suit.
