In the reception room of the Ancestral Witch Palace, Ling Mo, the leader of the Spirit Tribe, was talking to Murong Fei. A girl in gorgeous clothes who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old was sitting dignifiedly next to Murong Fei. She was none other than "Princess Mingxiu" Murong Yanran.

"Today, the Lord and His Royal Highness the Princess came to Lingjiu Peak, which is really brilliant. It has been several years since we last met, and it is really gratifying to see that the Lord's demeanor remains the same. The last time I saw you was on the twelfth birthday of the Princess, and I didn't want to dazzle Your Highness.

Now that you have grown so big, you have become more beautiful." Ling Mo said polite words with a smile on her face. Since the unification of the Hengjie Continent, the spirit race is no longer as closed as in the past, although it is inevitably affected by human society.

The impact of culture, but the rich material and wealth of human society has also improved the living standards of the spirit tribe people. Under Chu Xiao's strict order, the trafficking of spirit tribe girls has been completely put to an end. "Buyers and sellers are equally guilty, and murderers are guilty of the same crime."

No mercy." This decree completely shattered the chain of sin. The Lingmo people gradually became willing to interact with outsiders. With the increase in social interactions, first of all, the Lingmo clan leader's communication level was greatly improved.

She wouldn't have had so many compliments before.

Murong Fei smiled and said: "The patriarch is too polite. But I am too focused on cultivation and neglect to move around. I haven't been to the Lingjiu Mountains for more than ten years. Those who know that I am dull, but those who don't know think that I am arrogant.

Well, let me first accuse you, the clan leader."

"My lord, what you said is obvious. Back then, you and Emperor Chu led troops to fight in the Lingjiu Mountains. If it weren't for your bloody battle, I'm afraid the Ling clan would not have been able to escape the fate of being enslaved. The fate of both of us

Friendship has withstood the test of blood and fire on the battlefield."

"What the patriarch said is true. I brought my daughter here this time just to thank her for saving my life."

Murong Fei's rambling words suddenly confused Ling Mo. I don't know when the spirit clan came to save this princess. Seeing the puzzled look on her face, Murong Fei hurriedly explained.

: "Perhaps you don't know this yet. A few months ago, Yanran was so playful that she took a few maids and sneaked away to the Wuliang Mountains to learn how others dug herbs. However, she encountered a ferocious beast at the eighth level of the Heaven Realm.

Fortunately, a young man from the Spirit tribe appeared in time and saved the little girl's life. After returning, the child was afraid that her mother and I would get angry, so she delayed telling us about it. Later, she felt that she had to repay the life-saving grace.

She just told me about this and begged me to bring her here because she wanted to personally thank the young man from the Spirit Clan." Murong Fei explained, but Yan Ran next to her had a blushing face and became shy. Obviously,

She pulled her father over this time. It was a lie to say thank you, but it was true that she wanted to see the talent. At the dangerous moment that made her desperate, a handsome young man came to save her. This old plot of a hero saving a beauty is very important to girls.

But it always had great destructive power. From then on, a trace of emotion tightly wrapped around Yanran's heart, making her unable to eat and sleepless at night. Parents are naturally worried about their children. After repeated questioning, she revealed the story of that day.

Although Yanran asked the young man his name at that time, the other party did not tell him. However, based on the young man's clothes, he looked like a noble from the Spirit Tribe. In any case, Yanran wanted to see the young man again, so she pestered her father to ask for it.

When Murong Fei came to thank him, he didn't think much about it after learning the reason. He just felt that there was no reason not to thank him for saving his life, so he prepared a generous gift and brought his daughter to Lingjiu Mountain.

Ling Mo suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's it. However, there are many young people in our spiritual tribe, and there are also many who have experienced outside. If you don't know their names, it's not easy to find them."

"I still remember what he looks like." After hearing Ling Mo's words, Yan Ran was obviously a little anxious and said urgently.

Ling Mo was speechless for a moment, and she said in her heart: "I'm afraid the little girl has never seen a man from the Spirit Tribe before. They all look ugly. If you can't tell them apart from their clothes, I'm afraid even my own family will recognize her."

, if you could recognize it, you would be damned."

"He is tall, very handsome and handsome. He is dressed in noble clothes and carries a long knife on his back. It is a knife that is very similar to the Hanying sword of His Majesty the Emperor of Chu." Yanran recounted with a look of obsession.

As she looked, that nymphomaniacal look immediately made Murong Fei frown, and Ling Mo's expression also changed. She already knew who Yan Ran was talking about. There was only one person in the entire Ling clan who fit her description, and that was

The son of the contemporary Witch King Lingyao, who is also his grandson, and whose existence Chu Xiao is completely unaware of, is Chu Lanting.

The leader of the Lingmo clan smiled, and a bold plan instantly took shape in her mind. Although Ling Yao did not want Chu Xiao to know the existence of this son, nor did he want his son to get involved with the Zhongzhou royal family to fight for something, let alone

To disturb Chu Xiao's peaceful life. But Lingmo has always had reservations. She is the leader of the Spirit Clan and must consider the future of the Spirit Clan. If the son of the Spirit Clan Witch King and Emperor Chu succeeds to the throne in the future,

The status of the Spiritual Tribe will be very different from what it is now. As we all know, Chu Xiao is about to transcend the tribulation and become a god. His eyes have been fixed on the God Realm. He will not be in the Hengjie Continent for too long, but he currently only has one daughter.

It is natural for Chu Lanting, the only son and the eldest son, to inherit the throne. The two wives around Chu Xiao will also become gods and will definitely break the boundary with Chu Xiao in the future. The remaining Chu Fei is an outsider after all.

, even if you want to support Chu Lange as the queen, the Spiritual Clan, as a relative, has the power to contact the Monster Clan and other forces to compete. The prince is a prince after all, and he enjoys a natural advantage in the fight for inheritance, not to mention these years.

The Ling clan has always been very attentive to Chu Fei, the prime minister and minister, and it is really uncertain who she will support to succeed the throne. The more Ling Mo thinks about it, the more excited she becomes, but on the surface she remains calm.

"I know who it is. The person Her Royal Highness the Princess is talking about should be my grandson Lanting. I will call him over right now so that you can see him and see if he is the right one." With that, Lingmo ordered a maid to go out.

.

Murong Fei found it a bit funny. After listening to his daughter's description, he knew that the young man could not be from the Spirit Tribe. Yan Ran might not understand, but he knew very well that the Spirit Tribe men were all born short, ugly, and ugly.

There may be some handsome and majestic being. The leader of the Lingmo clan insists on taking this favor from his grandson. It is indeed suspected of being a bit forced, but the fact is the fact. His daughter is not a fool, and it is impossible to match the appearance of the person.

He couldn't recognize him clearly, let alone in such a completely different situation. But when he saw the figure walking in from the door, he was immediately stunned. The young man who came in was indeed as his daughter said, tall and well-proportioned.

, the face is very delicate, and even gives him a very familiar feeling of intimacy, and the pointed ears and eyes as clear as the blue lake water clearly illustrate his spiritual origin, as well as the entangled hair.

The tail around his waist, although Murong Fei didn't know whether men from the Spirit Tribe had tails, confirmed that this young man was definitely not of the same race as him.

"This is my grandson Lan Ting, the son of the new Witch King Ling Yao. Lan Ting, this is Princess Mingxiu and Duke Murong from Nanqi City." Ling Mo introduced with a smile on her face.

The young man bowed very politely: "I have met Her Royal Highness, the Duke."

Murong Fei stared blankly at the young man in front of him. He was a little distracted and didn't say anything for a long time. However, Yan Ran pulled his sleeve aside and whispered: "Father, he was the one who saved my daughter." Murong Fei then replied.

After coming to his senses, he exchanged a few awkward polite words, but the look of shock on his face did not diminish at all.

Naturally, all this could not escape Ling Mo's eyes. She smiled and explained: "Your Majesty must be surprised by this child's appearance, right? Men from the Spirit Tribe are indeed ugly and short in stature. The difference between this child is because his father is

A human man."

"It's my presumption. Please don't take offense, clan leader." Murong Fei said with a smile. He had never heard of the Witch King getting married, and no one knew that she had such an old son. There must be something wrong with this.

How could Murong Fei, who had been a Duke for nearly twenty years, continue to conduct rude research on the privacy of outsiders? So he immediately changed the topic and praised the young man, and Yanran also gave him a generous thank you gift

.

However, the young man was unwilling to accept it: "If you encounter danger on the road, how can you not save her? My mother told me that if my father had not saved her in danger, I would not exist. This is

It's a good thing to do to help others. Since it is a good thing, there is absolutely no reason to accept a thank you gift. This will make it appear that I have a purpose." The young man's honest words made everyone laugh, especially Ling Mo.

I am happy that although my grandson speaks upright, he is very to the point.

"It seems that after your father saved your mother, your mother became attached to this hero, and then they finally got married?" Yanran asked in a low voice with a shy face. This not solemn statement was immediately criticized.

He received a glare from Murong Fei.

"That's right. The princess is really smart." Lan Ting nodded and praised. How could he understand the meaning of the girl's words?

But Ling Mo smiled even brighter: "Lanting grew up in the mountains. He has never seen much of the world and can't speak. Please don't take offense to your rudeness, Your Highness and Lord. But there is one sentence:

Yes, it is not simple to rescue someone in times of crisis and accept gifts afterwards. Seeing that the princess and Lanting are similar in age, if the princess and the lord don't dislike my Lanting's vulgarity, it will be a good story for young people to make friends. After all,

The future of the Hengjie Continent belongs to their generation." Murong Fei couldn't find fault with these words. Even if his daughter was a princess with golden branches and jade leaves, he couldn't say that the son of the wizard king of the Spirit Clan and the grandson of the clan leader had low status.

Right? When young people make friends, it’s hard to tell who is superior to whom. Besides, he saved his daughter’s life. Murong Fei has no other choice but to nod. And the venomous Lingmo Clan Leader has long seen this.

Yan Ran was interested in Lan Ting, and she was not happy to give him a push. If they really became a couple, Chu Fei would naturally spare no effort to put her son-in-law on the throne in the future.

At this moment, a maid outside the door came to report: "The patriarch, 'Princess Henglan' is here with more than 20 young people."

"Princess Henglan? I'll go and greet her right away!" Lingmo frowned slightly. This "Princess Henglan" is the apple of Chu Xiao's eye. She has never set foot on Lingjiu Mountain before, but now she doesn't know what kind of wind is blowing.

After blowing her here, could it be that this kid Lan Ting also saved her? Lingmo was confused, but she didn’t dare to neglect it. Chu Lange was a real princess of the Zhongzhou Empire. Although she looked the same as Murong Yanran on the surface, who would be stupid?

Do you really treat them as equals? Ling Mo walked out quickly to greet her, while making up her mind, maybe through this little girl, she could let Chu Xiao know that she had a son.

Outside the Ancestral Witch Hall, Lange stood there with a group of young men and women. The leader of Lingmo Clan quickly walked out of the hall with Lanting and greeted him quickly. Murong Fei also followed with Yanran. Lange returned the gift politely.

, greeted her with a few polite words. As for the purpose of her visit, she was naturally embarrassed to say that she was here to see Yanran, so she could only say that her father asked her to come to greet her. Lingmo naturally didn't believe it, but she didn't tell her the truth and quickly introduced herself to her.

Grandson Lanting.

When he saw Lan Ting, Lang Ge couldn't take his eyes away. The young man in front of him was indeed not a human race, but his face and facial features were really similar to his father. What's even more weird is that, from the bottom of his heart, Lan Ge

I felt a sense of closeness to him, as if he were a friend I hadn't seen for a long time, and even his breath was so familiar.

"Your name is Lan Ting? My name is Lang Ge. We both have the word 'Lan' in our names. What a coincidence." Lan Ge slowly walked up to Lan Ting, both of them looking at each other. Not only did Lan Ge

Lan Ting has a special feeling. Even Lan Ting has an instinctive closeness to the princess of the Zhongzhou Empire in front of him. He even stared straight at Lan Ge's face very "unbridledly". If it weren't for Lan Ting

Ge was young and easy-going, so an ordinary girl would have to treat him as a disciple. Although Lan Ge didn't mind, there were many other people who did. Murong Yanran felt jealous in her heart, and she couldn't care less about herself.

The dignified persona appeared, Xiu Mei frowned slightly and coughed twice as a reminder. However, the group of young people behind Lan Ge were not so reserved. They all stared angrily, as if they wanted to eat people, and they wanted to eat them before they saw it.

He stepped forward to beat the person. However, he was stopped by "Uncle Xiao Mo" with a smile on his face. At this moment, Xiao Mo was already at the middle level of the divine realm and transformed into a middle-aged man in black. He has been alive for a long time.

How could a 20-year-old beast not see Chu Xiao's bloodline in the spirit race young man in front of him? He also knew that the two young men were attracted to each other, not because of "opposites attract", but because they had the same bloodline in their bodies.

, the feeling of closeness naturally arose, so he didn't stop him, and was still laughing secretly in his heart that Chu Xiaofengliu actually gave birth to an illegitimate child.

Ling Mo nodded secretly after seeing this. The effect she wanted was achieved, but she couldn't make the scene too ugly. She quickly smiled and greeted Lan Ge and everyone into the Ancestral Witch Hall. Only then did Lan Ge step forward and meet her uncle Murong Fei and cousin Murong.

Yanran greets you.

In this way, Lan Ge, who originally came to see his cousin, seemed to have a new interest in Lingjiu Mountain, and he stayed there without any ceremony. Lan Ge didn't want to leave, and Yan Ran had no intention of leaving either. One was reluctant to leave, and the other was

Ling Mo was extremely hospitable. In addition to arranging the best accommodation, he also specially assigned Lan Ting to accompany and guide the two palace masters.

The three young people stayed together and played around every day, and the atmosphere seemed a bit weird. Lan Ge didn't know that Lan Ting was the object of his cousin Yanran's lovesickness these days, so there was no taboo, and he and Lan Ting seemed particularly close. What's terrible is that the other party

He is also an upright person, and does not know how to take care of other people's feelings. He feels friendly and happy to be with Lange, so he directly treats Yanran as nothing, and is likely to ignore her directly. Pity Yanran, a daughter of the royal family, who has always been the point of contact no matter where they go in the past.

He and the center, how often had they been foils and green leaves, especially when the man she admired was hanging around her cousin, which made her heart feel like it was being burned on fire, making her feel as uncomfortable as possible.

At night, Yanran secretly came to the small building where Lange stayed. At this moment, Lange didn't rest either. She was sitting on the roof watching the stars. Yanran slowly walked to her side and sat down, raising her head and looking at the night sky. "

I heard from my father that when they were young, the sky was covered by dark clouds and they couldn't see the stars at all." Yanran said quietly.

"Yes, today's Hengjie Continent is getting better and better, which is inseparable from the selfless dedication of their generation. Without their blood, how could we have a happy life." Lang Ge's words are not at all like it.

It's something she can tell at her age.

"Do you still remember the young man I mentioned to you in my letter?" Yanran started to get straight to the point.

"It's Lan Ting, right? I've already guessed it." Lang Ge gave Yan Ran a meaningful look.
