So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!
Chapter 136: Suffering a Loss
Ling Jiuan glanced at Ling Changfeng indifferently, already knowing his situation in his heart.
Ling Changfeng is now like riding on the back of a tiger, in a dilemma.
Under Lei Tingyi's gaze, he couldn't easily do anything to himself.
And amidst Mrs. Lan's crying, he had no choice but to give Ling Jiuxi a reasonable explanation.
This scene is both ironic and subtle.
Ling Jiuan was not in a hurry for success. She looked at Ling Changfeng calmly, with a smile on her lips.
She knew very well that the silence at this moment was more powerful than any words.
Mrs. Lan naturally realized this. She was extremely anxious, but helpless.
In the end, she could only kneel down on the ground and look at Ling Changfeng with tears in her eyes.
"Husband, Xi'er is our daughter! Can you bear to let her be ruined in vain?"
Her voice was full of resentment and unwillingness.
Before Ling Jiuan came back, Ling Jiuxi was the most talented woman in the entire Ling family.
Now that she has been deposed, most of her glory is gone.
Ling Jiuan raised an eyebrow, his tone emotionless.
"Yes, father. My daughter is useless. She just ranked first in the secret realm trial and made contributions on the front line. Tell me, if outsiders knew that I was fighting on the front line to protect Xinghuo City, and my sister stabbed me in the back and came to my yard to kill the token of love between me and my beloved, how would outsiders talk about the Ling family?"
She hated the idea of fire in the rear, both in this life and in the previous one.
Ling Changfeng's face became even gloomier as he listened to Ling Jiuan's words.
"Are you threatening me?"
Ling Jiuan spread his hands with a faint smile on his face.
"Father, please understand. I have no other intentions. I am just thinking about you."
She knew that as the head of the family, Ling Changfeng must care most about the family's reputation.
Otherwise, the original owner would not have been thrown into the medicinal field in the back mountain and left to fend for herself.
Ling Changfeng looked at the doctor deeply, his tone filled with unquestionable majesty.
"Treat Miss Third well and use the best medicine! No matter what, we must make her recover."
It’s just that the Dantian is destroyed, but you can still practice.
At least, there is still a chance.
Upon hearing this, Ling Jiuan understood in his heart that Ling Changfeng had already made the decision.
As expected, human nature cannot overcome interests!
Mrs. Lan looked at Ling Changfeng dully, her eyes full of confusion and disappointment.
"Homeowner..."
She murmured, not knowing what to say.
She never thought that things would develop to this point.
Her Xier actually had to swallow such grievances!
Ling Changfeng took a deep breath and finally spoke coldly.
"Ling Jiuxi, you took advantage of the elder candidate to go to the front line and slaughtered the elder candidate's spirit beast. You deserve to be killed. Now I will abolish his cultivation as a warning. If anyone does it again in the future, they will be executed immediately!"
His voice was cold and resolute, and every word was squeezed out from between his teeth.
Ling Jiuan doesn't care about these things, as long as the goal is achieved.
Madam Lan slumped on the ground, staring at Ling Jiuan with bloodshot eyes, but she didn't say a word.
Her heart was filled with anger and resentment, but she knew it was too late to say anything now.
As she looked at Ling Jiuan's calm and composed appearance, the hatred in her heart grew stronger.
Bitch, you deserve to die!
Ling Jiuan bowed to Ling Changfeng.
"Thank you, father, for your justice. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
After that, she said nothing more, turned around and walked away, with a calm and leisurely pace.
Ling Changfeng glanced at her coldly, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, and finally he spoke coldly.
"Go back!"
His daughter is really promising!
Ling Jiuan turned around and left without hesitation, with Lei Tingyi walking beside her. The two of them were like a perfect match.
Liuying followed the two of them and felt very relieved. She secretly cheered for Ling Jiuan in her heart.
Only after leaving Ling Jiuxi's yard did Liuying speak happily.
"Master, you are amazing! With just a few words, you have left the master speechless."
She originally thought that her master was going to be wronged!
Unexpectedly, it was someone else who was wronged.
Ling Jiuan smiled.
"I'm just speaking the truth. He cares more about the family's reputation than anyone else."
After saying that, she looked at Lei Tingyi, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.
"As I remember, Ling Changfeng is already in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. It's amazing that you took on his attack so easily."
Lei Tingyi's strength is really a mystery.
Lei Tingyi raised his eyebrows.
"You don't even call me father? You call me by my name?"
Ling Jiuan smiled coldly.
"Father? Is he worthy of this title? He has never fulfilled his fatherly duties, so how can he be worthy of this title?"
Ling Jiuan had no parents in her previous life, but she always wondered what qualified parents should be like.
Now that I have a father, it's terrible.
After Ling Jiuan and Lei Tingyi gradually disappeared from her sight, Mrs. Lan finally knelt down at Ling Changfeng's feet, tears rolling down her cheeks like pearls from a broken string.
"Master, our Xi'er...how could she be wronged like this!"
Her voice was filled with grief and resentment, and she felt as if the whole world had collapsed.
Ling Changfeng looked at Madam Lan's grief-stricken expression, and couldn't help but feel helpless and sigh in his heart.
He stretched out his hand, wanting to help Mrs. Lan up, but stopped in mid-air, and finally just sighed softly.
"Let someone serve you well! Jiuan is right. Jiuxi is the one who doesn't know the seriousness of this matter. Fortunately, her spiritual roots are not damaged. As long as her dantian is repaired, she can still practice."
Upon hearing this, although Madam Lan was unwilling to accept it, she also understood that the situation was beyond redemption.
She wiped her tears, suppressed her grief and stood up.
"The head of the family is right. Jiuxi is ignorant. I will teach her well."
Although her voice was still a little choked, she had regained her usual calmness and composure.
She knew that if she kept dwelling on this matter, Ling Changfeng would only dislike her and her daughter even more.
This kind of ending is what Jiuan wanted, but it is not what she wanted.
So now, no matter how dissatisfied I am, I cannot show it.
Ling Changfeng looked at Madam Lan, who was trying hard to suppress her grief, and couldn't help but feel guilty and pity.
"I'm sorry for wronging you and your daughter."
"What happened today was also because Jiuan was too aggressive."
He also didn't expect that after returning from the secret realm, Ling Jiuan's attitude became tougher and tougher.
But unfortunately, Ling Jiuan's strength is there, and the elders of the Ling family basically recognize her.
At this time, he, as a father, could not do anything to Ling Jiuan.
