3914 When he found out about her identity
“Alchemist Grandmaster Ling, the Jing clan is right in front. I would like to invite you to stay there for a few days. I can also do my best to be a good host.” Jing Ziyu said to Ling Chuxi only after everyone was done laughing.
“I still have matters to attend to. I’ll go if I have the chance in the future. You can go back first.” Ling Chuxi did not want to waste any more time and rejected Jing Ziyu’s invitation.
Actually, as a follower, Jing Ziyu should have followed Ling Chuxi around, but his situation was different from Meng Zheng ‘s. The latter had been stripped of his right to be the family’s successor, while Jing Ziyu was a popular candidate for the next family head of the Jing family. Naturally, he could not always be by her side. Moreover, Ling Chuxi also hoped to get some help from the Jing family and did not want him to give up his position as the head of the Jing family.
“Oh, then I won’t go back either. I’ll just follow you, Sir.” Jing Ziyu’s face clearly showed a disappointed expression as he said this reluctantly.
“No need. I still have some things to do, and I may need the help of the Jing family. You just have to go back and wait for my news. If you can establish yourself as the young master, you’ll be of even greater help to me. ” Although these words sounded a little snobbish, Ling Chuxi did not hide anything and spoke frankly.
“Good, good, good. Don’t worry, Alchemist Grandmaster Ling. I’ll make sure that the position of young master is settled as soon as I get home. By then, you only need to say the word, and the Jing clan will be at your disposal.” After listening to Ling Chuxi’s words, Jing Ziyu did not mind at all. Instead, he felt a great honor.
What a joke, to be able to work for a domain lord, that was a blessing that many families couldn’t even hope for. It was only because Ling Chuxi was not willing to reveal her identity as a region master too early. Otherwise, if this matter was brought back and brought up, let alone the young family head, even if he was immediately made the family head, those old fellows would probably not have any objections.
“By the way, your big brother has joined the Shangguan family. He might do something bad to you, so you have to be careful.” Ling Chuxi knew that things were not as simple as Jing Ziyu thought, so she gave him another reminder.
“Thank you for your reminder, Sir. I will be careful.” The more Jing Ziyu thought about it, the more excited he became. He nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
“Don’t worry, my Lord. If Jing Ziqiu wants to harm the young master, he will definitely inform me in advance. I will remind the young master.” The guard said.
If it was just Jing Ziyu alone, Ling Chuxi would really be worried that he would not be able to win against Jing Ziqiu. But with this guard as a spy, Ling Chuxi was much more at ease.
After saying goodbye to ou Yulu and the others, Jing Ziqiu returned to the Jing clan with the guard.
As for uncle Ling, he drove the star Shuttle and continued to rush towards the Ling family.
The speed of the Stardust shuttle wasn’t something that a flying sword could compare to. After a few days, they had arrived within the Ling family’s territory.
“Alchemist Grandmaster Ling, the Ling clan is right in front of us. I would also like to invite you to visit my clan.” Ling Zhongxiao said with some apprehension. After all, Ling Chuxi had previously rejected Jing Ziyu, so he was also afraid of being turned down. However, since he was already at the Ling family, he would feel bad if he did not invite her.
“Alright, let’s go take a look.” Of course, Ling Chuxi would not reject him.
“Great Alchemist Ling, y-you’re willing to go?” Ling Zhongxiao almost thought that he had misheard and said in surprise.
“Well, maybe we were family five hundred years ago. Let’s go and visit.” Seeing Ling Zhongxiao’s extremely surprised look, Ling Chuxi secretly laughed. She did not know how surprised he would be when he found out about her true identity.
Originally, Ling Chuxi had wanted to simply tell Ling Zhongxiao her true identity, but when she saw his fearful and overjoyed look, she felt that it was fun, so she dispelled this idea. He would find out soon anyway, so there was no rush.
