Chapter 384 - Table conversation
Moreover, for a long time, no one had been able to determine a victor. This was because there was fear in everyone's hearts and they all had the same thought, the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole, and everyone knew, if they were to wholeheartedly go against one side, they would definitely be ambushed by other people, or they might even be injured or lose their vitality, and they would never be able to get up again.
Therefore, the only way to protect oneself while constantly expanding was to work with a stronger person.
Seeing Ling Xiao's serious face, Wang Yuanba knew that it would not be easy to get rid of him, and could only honestly explain his thoughts.
"Although my Wang Family is quite famous in the Luoyang City, when facing the powerful sects outside, I am still a bit behind. This old man naturally wants to help the Lin Family, but when facing the Qingcheng Sect, this old man does not have sufficient confidence. Wang Yuanba explained.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao could not help but snort coldly, "The matter of saving others has been turned into child's play by you, by the time you find him, you will have already finished."
Hearing that, Wang Yuanba sighed: "Sect Leader Ling, truthfully, water cannot save fire, Lin Zhennan this brat is too slow, even after being tricked by Qingcheng Sect he could not react at all, I can't really help much with a temporary accident."
You must know that my daughter also died because of Qingcheng Sect. Unfortunately, this old man's ability is limited, otherwise, this old man would have definitely personally helped to take care of Qingcheng Sect! ""? Wang Yuanba said fiercely.
Looking at Wang Yuanba's excited expression, Ling Xiao knew that he was not putting on an act. His daughter's death had really angered Wang Yuanba.
"Please grieve, Clan Head Wang. People cannot be revived, but we are still alive. What plans do you have for us?" Ling Xiao asked indifferently.
If Wang Yuanba really harbored hatred towards the Qingcheng Sect, then Ling Xiao could think of a way to make use of him again.
Although The King of the Golden Blade didn't dominate Luoyang City, she still had a certain amount of strength. As long as she used it properly, it would also be a pretty good power.
Wang Yuanba raised his cup and drank. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Naturally, it is to find a way to rope in the experts that this old man has painstakingly pursued for the past few days. Only then can I have an even stronger bargaining chip."
Hearing that, Ling Xiao squinted his eyes and said: "Clan Head Wang, what are you doing? Do you want to take revenge for Lin Family, or do you want to consolidate your position in Luoyang City?"
Hearing that, Wang Yuanba's face changed, he then frowned: Sect Leader Ling, you have such a clever plan at such a young age, it is truly impressive, but this old man has no reason to tell you everything, regarding Lin Family's tragic encounter, this old man is also upset, but this old man has to face many bitter days, and I do not have the time to speak to you about the useless logic here.
Seeing Wang Yuanba's flustered and exasperated look, yet Ling Xiao was indifferent, he had long expected this scene.
"Clan Head Wang, I am not here specifically to denounce you. Instead, I have some matters to discuss with you." Ling Xiao said mysteriously.
Hearing that, Wang Yuanba frowned, "Sect Leader Ling, you aren't here to cause trouble for this old man, why are you here then?"
"If I have enough power, what would Clan Head Wang do first?" Ling Xiao did not directly answer, but asked.
Wang Yuanba was unable to guess what kind of riddle Ling Xiao was playing, he was unable to understand anything, thus he did not dare to make random guesses, and could only answer what he thought honestly.
"Firstly, this old man will definitely stabilize the position of the Wang Family in the Luoyang City. Secondly, I will take over the Qingcheng Sect and take revenge for my daughter and the Lin Family." Wang Yuanba was serious.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao nodded his head, and said: "En, I can understand Clan Head Wang's thoughts, if you had said the first part, I would have stood up and left, but after you said the last part, I intend to help you."
Hearing that, Wang Yuanba was startled, he did not react for a long time, and then asked: "Sect Leader Ling, what do you mean by help me?"
"Didn't Clan Head Wang say that there were people who had painstakingly requested for so many days without result?" Ling Xiao laughed faintly.
Hearing that, Wang Yuanba came to a realization, and asked suspiciously: "Sect Leader Ling, you mean to help me talk to that person? Do you know who it was? "
Ling Xiao gave a bland laugh, and said: "No matter who the other party is, I have a way, and it will depend on whether Clan Head Wang is willing to agree or not."
Wang Yuanba slapped the table and said: "Sect Leader Ling, this old man is also a straightforward person. If you really can help negotiate, then anything else can be negotiated.
After Ling Xiao heard this, he could not help but laugh out loud. Then, he slammed the table and said: "Alright! Clan Head Wang is straightforward, I just want your words, so leave the rest to me. "
Seeing that, Wang Yuanba raised his wine cup and said: "Regardless of success, on account of Sect Leader Ling wanting to help me, I toast!"
With that said, Wang Yuanba raised his cup and drained it dry.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao also raised his cup and gulped down the wine, causing Wang Yuanba to clap and cheer.
Just like that, the two of them began to drink. They were no longer as tense as before, but more intimate and natural.
After three rounds of drinking, Wang Yuanba felt that his brain was on fire, and the objects in front of his eyes were all in a daze. But at first glance, he found that Ling Xiao was still sitting perfectly straight, and not only was he curious, "Sect Leader Ling, did you really drink?"
Ling Xiao passed the jug of wine in front of him to Wang Yuanba, and said with a smile: "Clan Head Wang, you can inspect it yourself.
Hearing that, Wang Yuanba actually extended his hand to grab the wine pot, but just as he was about to get up, he stumbled and fell flat on the table, snoring loudly.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao could not help but shake his head, and then called for a servant to carry Wang Yuanba away.
The next day, Wang Yuanba personally came to Ling Xiao's residence and invited him to have breakfast.
"Clan Head Wang, is the alcohol awake?" Ling Xiao held his teacup and laughed.
Hearing this, Wang Yuanba couldn't help but blush, and after coughing twice he said: "Sect Leader Ling, tonight, what wine will not wake up, Sect Leader Ling is thinking about this."
Seeing that, Ling Xiao laughed again: Clan Head Wang is getting stronger and stronger, his body is recovering very quickly.
Wang Yuanba shook his head and said: "But it cannot compare to the Sect Leader Ling, young people's bodies are the best."
