I have been a saint in the world for three thousand years

Tang Ling took a deep breath and slowly opened the door.

She lowered her head slightly, stepped over the threshold and entered the room.

Tang Ling then knelt down and bowed deeply, saying respectfully, "Ling'er greets father."

After completing the ceremony, Tang Ling slowly raised her head and cast her gaze towards the people at the table.

The man was wearing a dark purple dragon robe with gold lines embroidered on the sleeves, looking majestic and noble.

His facial features are strong and three-dimensional. Although there are some gray hairs on his temples, they add a sense of calmness and wisdom that comes from the years.

A pair of deep eyes are like an ancient lake that has experienced many vicissitudes of life, reflecting the wisdom of seeing through the world.

Every gesture and movement reveals the noble temperament unique to the royal family.

Tang Ye also turned to look at Tang Ling with a gentle gaze.

He motioned Tang Ling to sit down and sighed softly.

"Ling'er, do you hate your father?"

Tang Ling shook her head upon hearing this.

"Father has his own reasons and considerations for doing this. How can Ling'er blame him?"

After hearing these words, a smile of relief and satisfaction appeared on Tang Ye's face.

He then stood up from his chair and walked to the window.

Through the carved window lattice, Tang Ye gazed at the bustling streets and prosperous city scenes outside the window.

"Now that my father has dealt with all the difficult matters, you will return to the palace with me soon. You don't have to suffer in this remote place anymore."

Hearing this, Tang Ling lowered her head slightly and remained silent.

Seeing that she did not respond immediately, Tang Ye couldn't help feeling a little confused.

"Why, are you still reluctant to leave this small Yong'an City?"

Tang Ling shook her head, a slightly forced smile on her face.

"That's not the case. It's just that Ling'er has been in Yong'an City for a long time, and she has developed some feelings for it..."

After hearing this, Tang Ye laughed heartily and said with emotion: "You are very similar to your mother in this respect."

He paused and continued, "After returning to the capital, follow me to meet Lord Yu'an's son."

Tang Ling's face turned pale when she heard this.

This Lord Yu'an is a powerful figure in the capital.

I have also heard of Tang Ling, the son of Lord Yu'an. It is said that he is handsome and many princesses and daughters admire him.

But Tang Ling already has a lover, so naturally she won’t have any thoughts about other people.

But she also knew that it was her parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, and she had no right to refuse.

Tang Ling looked bitter and whispered, "Everything depends on my father."

After hearing this, Tang Ye nodded slightly, showing a satisfied look, and then said.

"I will be returning to the capital soon. If you have any friends here, take this opportunity to say goodbye to them. After all, we will never see each other again."

Her father's words made Tang Ling's face turn even paler.

She bit her bloodless lips, stood up, bowed, and slowly left the room.

After Tang Ling left, Ajiu entered the house.

He knelt respectfully, his forehead pressed against the cold ground.

"Go ahead."

At this moment, Tang Ye put away the tenderness and affection he had when talking to his daughter, and returned to his usual dignified and indifferent expression.

Ajiu organized his thoughts and began to report to Tang Ye in detail everything that had happened during this period.

He told everything, including what happened to Shen Zhi, without reservation.

While Ajiu was narrating, Tang Ye remained expressionless and listened quietly.

Until it was mentioned that Shen Zhi was seriously injured by the young master of the He family and was on the verge of death, but was miraculously rescued by a master.

And when he had acquired a good set of martial arts skills, Tang Ye broke the silence for the first time.

"Who is the master he is talking about?"

Ajiu pondered for a moment and then expressed his guess.

"Considering the attitude of the people from the Demon Suppression Division towards Shen Zhi, the master who saved Shen Zhi must be someone from the Demon Suppression Division."

This inference seems reasonable to Ajiu.

After all, thinking back to Li Xuan's protection and support for Shen Zhi in court, it is hard not to think that the savior mentioned by Shen Zhi is most likely from the Demon Suppression Bureau.

As for who the master Shen Zhi was talking about, Tang Ye was just a little curious and did not delve into it further.

At this moment, a look of wanting to say something but stopping suddenly appeared on Ajiu's face.

"Your Highness, there is something I am not sure whether I should tell you or not."

Tang Ye glanced at him with an indifferent tone.

"explain."

After Jiu secretly said "Miss, please don't blame me" in his heart, he slowly spoke.

"Your Highness, if Ah Jiu's guess is correct, the young lady may already have a lover."

As soon as these words were spoken, a terrifying aura of pressure burst out from Tang Ye.

This breath immediately made Jiu feel suffocated. His muscles tensed up and even his Qi stopped flowing.

You have to know that he has the cultivation level of Tiangang Realm, but in front of Tang Ye's pressure, Ajiu felt as small as an ant and had no power to resist.

At this time, Tang Ye finally understood why Tang Ling looked so shy when he said that she would leave Yong'an City soon.

Tang Ye snorted coldly when he thought that someone was bold enough to touch his daughter.

"Who is so brave?!"

Seeing this, Jiu couldn't help but feel a little regretful, wondering if he had said too much and thus angered the master.

But for the young lady's future happiness, Ajiu still hardened his heart and told Tang Ye Shen Zhi's name.

When Tang Ye heard Shen Zhi's name, his anger disappeared.

Although the other party did have some extraordinary adventures, in Tang Ye's eyes, they were simply insignificant.

At this moment, Tang Ye suddenly turned his gaze to the window, and his gaze fell on Ling Yunzhou hidden in the clouds, and his tone was meaningful.

"It seems that the group of demon-catching officers from the Demon Suppression Department haven't left yet?"

Ajiu didn't quite understand what the master said and just nodded blankly.

"In that case, let's go visit him."

After saying this, Tang Ye rolled up his sleeves and floated away.

...

Inside the Lingyun Boat.

Tang Xun's face was full of anger, and he was obviously still angry about Li Xuan's opposition to him.

"You are such a fool. Wait till we get back to the Demon Suppression Bureau and see how I'll deal with you!"

Just then, a demon-catching captain came walking quickly.

"Director, a distinguished guest wants to see you!"

Tang Xun was still angry at the moment and was in no mood to meet guests.

He waved his hand impatiently and said, "No, no, can't you see I'm busy?!"

Seeing this, the demon-catching captain stepped forward and whispered Tang Ye's identity.

After listening to this, Tang Xun's eyes suddenly lit up.

He stood up suddenly, the anger on his face disappeared, replaced by surprise and anticipation.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Please invite him in!"

...

On the wide deck of Lingyun Boat.

Tang Ye, dressed in gorgeous clothes, stood proudly at the bow of the ship, gazing far away at the mountains in the distance.

Behind him, five guards in black armor were neatly lined up.

Each of them had a deep aura and bright eyes, and they were obviously masters with profound cultivation.

At this moment, a rapid and excited voice sounded from far away.

"My nephew Tang Xun greets Prince Jin!"

As he spoke, Tang Xun quickly ran to Tang Ye and bowed respectfully.

When the monster-hunting captains around heard that the visitor was the highly respected King Jin, they all showed expressions of surprise that were difficult to conceal.

Immediately they all knelt on the ground and bowed in unison.

Tang Ye laughed and motioned for everyone to stand up with a gentle smile on his face.

"Nephew Tang, there is no need to be polite. Get up quickly."

"By the way, is your father in good health recently?"
