Chapter 291 - Proximity to Trouble

Following that, Ning Zhongze told Ling Xiao everything that he had seen that night in detail.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao nodded his head indifferently: "Looks like, something unspeakable is about to happen, if not Sect Leader would not have secretly slipped away."

However, Yue Lingshan, who was at the side, slammed the table and said angrily: "! This is too outrageous. When I am in danger, I actually think of escaping alone."

Ning Zhongze patted Yue Lingshan's back and said, "Alright, Shan'er, we'll definitely be safe staying at Gongzi Ling's residence."

Yue Lingshan escaped from Ning Zhongze's grasp and frowned: "I'm not worried about the safety of this place. This is the Huashan Mountain, how could the enemy just casually come in? But I don't understand, why would my father do such a despicable thing, it really makes me feel embarrassed."

Seeing this scene, Ning Zhong, on the other hand, helplessly shook his head. He knew that no matter how he said it, he wouldn't be able to change Yue Lingshan's mind.

Thus, Ning Zhong turned to look at Ling Xiao, and said: "Gongzi Ling, what do you think of this matter?"

Ling Xiao smiled calmly and said: "It's enough to just quietly wait and see; there's no need to intentionally seek the truth."

"Could it be that Gongzi Ling doesn't care at all? The danger this time, is most likely because of you." Ning Zhongze reminded.

Ling Xiao shook his head and said: "What should come will eventually come. This reputed one knows that the Sect Leader does not have such a broad mind, causing Hu Chong to be crippled and disappear. He will definitely think of a way to get rid of me, but, as long as Feng Qingyang is here, he will not dare to act brazenly against me."

"So, the only way for him is to borrow a knife to kill people." Ling Xiao paused for a moment, before continuing.

"What?" To borrow a knife to kill? " Ning Zhongze and Yue Lingshan both stared wide-eyed when they heard it.

Ling Xiao nodded his head: "That's right, since we are borrowing the blade to kill, then the Sect Leader himself will not reveal himself. Then the enemy will be in the dark, so what's the use of us waiting here anxiously, so, we should just wait and see."

With that, Ling Xiao got up and tidied up the bed, and said: "Although my house is a little desolate, but luckily this bed is big enough, you two mother and daughter have more than enough sleep here."

Hearing this, Ning Zhong immediately asked: "Gongzi Ling, this isn't good, then where are you sleeping?"

Ling Xiao picked up a pillow, pointed to a chair and said: "I am not sleepy, and plan to meditate for the night, you guys don't have to worry. If you don't feel at ease, you can close the curtain."

With that, Ling Xiao put the pillow on the chair, closed his eyes, and began to meditate.

Seeing this scene, Ning Zhong wanted to say something, but seeing that Ling Xiao had already started to meditate and knew that it would be inconvenient to disturb him again, Ning Zhong could only pull Yue Lingshan along to tidy up. After getting onto the bed, he glanced at the silent Ling Xiao cultivating once more.

From the looks of it, Ning Zhong Ze was still worried that his actions would cause Ling Xiao to misunderstand him.

On the second day, Ling Xiao woke up from his meditation and went to the courtyard to train. When he woke up, Ning Zhong and Yue Lingshan were still sleeping soundly.

He didn't know if it was because they trusted Ling Xiao a lot or not in their hearts, but after all, when they came last night, the both of them had panicked expressions and were extremely worried and scared.

Not long after he started his morning practice, a disciple of the Huashan Mountain arrived.

"Martial Uncle Ling, I'm here to look for Lady Ning." The disciple bowed and said.

"Oh? Lady Ning still hasn't woken up. What business do you have? " Ling Xiao knew that this person was one of Ning Zhongze's trusted aides, otherwise she wouldn't have directly come here, because Ning Zhongze said that he hid here and didn't tell anyone else.

The Huashan Mountain disciple hesitated for a moment, but still told Ling Xiao everything she wanted to report.

"Martial Uncle Ling, please inform Lady Ning. I don't know why, but I can't find Sect Leader anymore, we are all worried." The Huashan Mountain disciple cupped his fists and said.

Ling Xiao nodded: "Of course, you can rest assured."

Watching the Huashan Mountain disciples leave, Ling Xiao turned around and entered the room, waking up Ning Zhong Ze and his mother.

Seeing the sun outside the window, Ning Zhongze was stunned, "How could I have slept for so long?"

"Maybe it was too much last night, so I slept a little too deeply." Yue Lingshan said as she rubbed her eyes. It seemed that she was still dreaming.

"Although I really don't want to disturb your sleep, there's still some trouble coming my way." Ling Xiao looked at Ning Zhongze and said.

Hearing this, Ning Zhong immediately sat up and asked: "Gongzi Ling, what happened?"

After passing on the message of the Huashan Mountain disciple to Ning Zhongze, Ling Xiao said: "I'll have to trouble Lady Ning to take care of this matter. After all, the Sect Leader is nowhere to be found.

When Ning Zhongze heard this, he said somewhat fearfully, 'These two people have already been away from Huashan Mountain for a few years. Why did they choose to return now?

"Maybe father knew about this beforehand and secretly ran away!" Yue Lingshan said while gnashing her teeth on the side.

Seeing that he did not know how to handle Ning Zhongze, Ling Xiao said indifferently: "I have already passed on what needs to be said, the rest is up to you, Lady Ning."

"Gongzi Ling, I know you are not a simple person, your previous performance was definitely done in order to keep a low profile. This time, please help us out!" Ning Zhong, on the other hand, quickly placed their hopes on Ling Xiao.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao shook his head and said: "I am only the Sword Sect's disciple, and Sect Leader does not know where I am currently, so it is not the time for me to come out yet."

"That's right, mother, don't let Ling Xiao come out and take any risks. Previously, the matter of making Hu Chong angry angered father, maybe this time, it was Ling Xiao who caused the trouble." Yue Lingshan advised from the side.

Seeing that Yue Lingshan was actually standing on Ling Xiao's side, Ning Zhong could only sigh heavily, knowing that this was not something that he could order.

"Since that's the case, then we won't have to trouble Gongzi Ling, it's just that this Feng Buping, whether he succeeds or not, is a super first-rate expert, and is also the cornerstone of the sword sect during its time of glory. Now that there's no one to blame, our Huashan Mountain might not be able to escape this calamity, if we really step into a hopeless situation, I only want to ask one of Gongzi Ling's help." Ning Zhong, on the other hand, had a serious expression on his face.
