So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

After dealing with Ling Changfeng's affairs, Ling Jiucheng did not dare to delay and hurried towards Ling Jiuan's yard.

As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I saw Ling Jiurong standing anxiously in the yard, as if something was blocking her way.

When she saw him, a hint of dependence flashed in Ling Jiurong's eyes, as if she had found someone to rely on.

"Brother, you are here."

She called softly, with a hint of helplessness in her tone.

Ling Jiucheng nodded slightly, looked around quickly, and frowned slightly.

"Are Liuzhu and Liuying in there?"

Ling Jiurong nodded, a hint of embarrassment flashing across her eyes.

"Yes, big brother. My spiritual power is low, and they won't let me in, so I can't do anything about it."

She explained in a low voice, twisting her hands unconsciously together, looking a little embarrassed.

Ling Jiucheng glanced at her indifferently, with a hint of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

"It's normal for them not to trust you. After all, what you did before... Never mind. You wait outside now. I'll go in and take a look."

There was a hint of helplessness in his words, but they also revealed a hint of irresistible majesty.

He could understand that what Ling Jiurong had done before made Liu Zhu and Liu Ying wary.

Ling Jiurong knew that she was in the wrong, so she nodded, with a trace of guilt in her eyes.

"I see, brother."

She responded in a low voice and stood obediently in a corner of the yard.

As soon as Ling Jiucheng entered the room, he saw Liu Zhu and Liu Ying busying themselves with treating Ling Jiuan's injuries.

He walked quickly to the bedside and looked at Ling Jiuan's pale face with concern.

"How is it?"

He asked in a low voice, with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

Ling Jiuan's condition doesn't seem to be very good.

Liu Zhu looked up at him, a trace of awe flashed in his eyes, but he still spoke respectfully.

"My Lord, the Master is seriously injured. He was injured quite a lot before this, and was hanging on the city wall for ten days. Although he is not seriously injured, he still needs to be taken good care of."

Ling Jiucheng nodded, his eyes softened a little.

"Okay, serve her well. If you need anything, go to the storehouse and get it. Don't be restrained."

Liuzhu and Liuying were both stunned when they heard this, and then nodded.

"Yes, my lord."

Seeing that Ling Jiuan would not wake up for a while, Ling Jiucheng tiptoed out of the room, trying not to disturb Liu Zhu and Liu Ying inside.

As soon as he walked out of the room, Ling Jiurong came up to him impatiently, her eyes full of concern.

"Brother, what's going on? Is Jiuan okay?"

she asked anxiously, wringing her hands together.

She regrets it now, but she also knows that regret is the most useless thing in the world.

Ling Jiucheng looked at her and spoke lightly, his tone was a little tired, but more of concern for his sister.

"Although she's not seriously injured, you still need to take good care of her for a while. She hasn't woken up yet, and you're not feeling well either. Why don't you go back and rest first?"

He was aware of Ling Jiurong's guilt, but some things could not be solved by guilt alone.

Ling Jiurong shook her head.

"I'm here waiting for her to wake up. I've been so sorry for her all these years. She's our sister, but I always thought she was the one who killed our mother and never really cared about her. Now, I want to stay by her side until she wakes up."

There was a hint of guilt and self-blame in her words.

In fact, Ling Jiuan had said it many times, but she just didn't believe it.

When Ling Jiucheng heard this, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

He looked at Ling Jiurong silently for a while, then sighed softly.

"Okay, then you just wait here. I'll make some arrangements and have someone bring you some food and drinks. You should also take care of your body and don't overwork yourself."

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Ling Jiurong alone waiting quietly in Ling Jiuan's yard.

She knew that she owed her sister so much, and now she just wanted to make up for her past mistakes with her actions.

After Ling Jiucheng left Jiu'an Hall, he went straight to the meeting hall without stopping.

He knew very well that there were many affairs in the family at the moment and he needed to deal with them as soon as possible.

So, as soon as he arrived at the meeting hall, he immediately ordered his men to summon all the elders to discuss the matter.

Before the elders arrived, Ling Changfeng sent someone to bring the head of the family over.

This token symbolizes the highest power of the family and is also a symbol of the identity of the head of the family.

Ling Jiucheng was not surprised when he took over the order of the head of the family.

He knew that after experiencing a series of misfortunes, his father Ling Changfeng had chosen to retire and no longer interfere in family affairs.

Ling Jiucheng tightly grasped the patriarch's order, with complicated emotions surging in his heart.

He understood that from this moment on, the responsibility on his shoulders became even greater.

He not only has to protect his family, but also take good care of his sister Jiuan, and handle the relationship with his father and other family members.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner turmoil.

The elders arrived at the meeting hall one after another. As soon as they entered, they saw Ling Jiucheng playing with the family head's order in his hand. They all had different expressions on their faces.

Some elders looked surprised, some seemed a little worried, but more remained silent and waited for the situation to develop.

In the end, it was the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall who spoke first, his tone containing some tentativeness and inquiry.

"Young Master, are you going to succeed the head of the family?"

Ling Jiucheng spoke calmly, but his tone revealed an unquestionable majesty.

"Yes. My father is too sad and has gone into seclusion. I will take over as the head of the family. Do you have any opinions?"

Everyone looked at each other; they actually had no objection.

Ling Jiucheng is extremely talented and has been handling family affairs for many years. He is qualified for the position of head of the family in terms of both ability and experience.

However, they were also worried that Ling Jiucheng's cultivation was still slightly insufficient compared to some of the veteran elders, which might become a shortcoming in his leadership of the family.

However, these concerns have not been raised directly.

After all, the position of the head of the family is not determined solely by one's cultivation, but more importantly by wisdom and leadership ability.

Ling Jiucheng has undoubtedly demonstrated extraordinary talent in these aspects.

Therefore, despite some doubts in their hearts, the elders expressed their support.

Seeing this, Ling Jiucheng just curled his lips slightly.

He knew very well that if he wanted everyone to truly support him, words alone were not enough, he also needed to prove his strength with practical actions.

So, he gently released a ball of spiritual power, which condensed into a bright light in the air, emitting a powerful aura.

Everyone was surprised when they saw this. They didn't expect that Ling Jiucheng's cultivation had already reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, which was comparable to Ling Changfeng's current cultivation.

"My father's current cultivation level is only the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and I am also in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. So you don't have to worry about my cultivation level."

For a time, everyone sincerely supported Ling Jiucheng as the new head of the family.

"I will obey the order of the master of the family!"
