Back to the Peak

Following the imperial guard, Ling Feng soon came to a quiet place in the palace - the royal garden. 26nbsp;

Now it is the golden autumn season in September, and all kinds of colorful flowers such as crape myrtle, rose, jasmine, pink and so on in the imperial garden are competing to bloom, which is eye-catching. A faint fragrance of flowers lingers in the air, making people feel refreshed and refreshed when they smell it.

Ling Feng couldn't help feeling that such a charming flower collection, probably only the royal family can have such financial and material resources.

Wandering in the sea of ​​flowers, Ling Feng's steps became much lighter unconsciously. After three detours and two detours, the imperial guard who was leading the way stopped in his footsteps, pointed to a small pavilion about three meters high a hundred meters ahead, turned his head and said respectfully to Ling Feng: "Vice Dutong Ling, Your Majesty is waiting for you there Well, let's go."

"Okay." Ling Feng nodded, and walked quickly to the not luxurious but very elegant kiosk a hundred meters away.

Approaching the small pavilion, Ling Feng saw Xue Hongze's smile in the pavilion at a glance, and beside him was Xue Xiaoxiao who had already changed into a purple gauze. At this moment, Xue Xiaoxiao is holding Xue Hongze's arm, snuggling up beside him, admiring flowers, talking and laughing with him, having a good time.

rustle……

The sound of feet stepping on dead leaves was heard, and both Xue Hongze and Xue Xiaoxiao, father and daughter, in the small pavilion followed the sound and looked over.

In sight, Ling Feng was striding towards him.

Seeing Ling Feng, Xue's elf-like eyes lit up, and her little hand holding Xue Hongze tightened slightly. Xue Hongze was keenly aware of his daughter's reaction, and couldn't help showing a faint smile on his face, looking at Ling Feng with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"See Your Majesty!" Walking into the small pavilion, Ling Feng was about to bow to salute, but Xue Hongze interrupted with his hand: "This is not the main hall, Ling Aiqing doesn't have to be formal." Then Xue Hongze pointed to the opposite side of him "Come on, Ling Aiqing, sit down and let's talk slowly."

Ling Feng sat opposite Xue Hongze as he said, with a respectful face, but his heart was full of doubts.

Xue Hongze first favored himself in the main hall, and then called himself to the imperial garden where only members of the royal family could come, but now he actually made himself equal to him.

This series of overly intimate actions made Ling Feng wonder why Xue Hongze did this?

Just when Ling Feng was full of doubts, Xuehong Zelang laughed and said, "Are you wondering why I favor you in Longyuan Palace?"

Ling Feng nodded, but did not speak, but waited for Xue Hongze to continue.

Seeing Ling Feng nodding, Xue Hongze smiled slightly, and said, "Actually, the reason is very simple. First of all, you saved my precious daughter from the Sky Swallowing Python, which is one of the reasons why I decided to favor you."

Ling Feng still didn't speak, quietly waiting for Xue Hongze's next words.

He believes this is not the main reason. After all, with Xue Hongze's status as a human emperor, he would never favor the Ling family, which is clearly not as powerful as the four major families, just because he saved his daughter at this critical juncture.

"As for the second reason, it's you!" Xue Hongze pointed at Ling Feng, "You have become a young innate peak martial artist at the age of eighteen. This kind of talent is absolutely unique in my Eastern Jin Dynasty. Say you It is not an exaggeration to be the number one person in the Eastern Jin Dynasty for thousands of years! Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine that you will be able to reach the Spirit Gathering Realm in the future, and you may even become a strong Yuan Condensed Realm above the Spirit Gathering Realm!"

"There are hundreds of millions of people in the entire Eastern Jin Dynasty, but there are only two or three strong people who can be born in the spirit-gathering state within a hundred years, let alone someone who can reach the Yuan-condensing state. Even though the top ten powerhouses of our Eastern Jin Dynasty are the most powerful The ones who are strong are only at the first level of the Spirit Gathering Realm! The other nine powerhouses have only reached the peak of the Great Innate!"

"And you became Xiaotian's peak warrior at the age of eighteen, and your achievements in the future will definitely not be lower than the current strongest!" Having said this, Xue Hongze couldn't help getting excited, "How about our Eastern Jin royal family? It's easy to meet a genius like you, so naturally I have to train with all my strength!"

Ling Feng nodded understandingly.

It turned out that the reason Xue Hongze favored him was because he valued his own potential. After all, a strong man whose strength has reached the spirit-gathering realm is as powerful as a thousand troops. Although there is an agreement between the countries that the strong in the spirit-gathering realm cannot participate in the war, if they can have a strong spirit-gathering realm in charge, other countries will not dare to send troops easily.

"As for the third reason..." Xue Hongze continued.

"What, there is a third reason?" Ling Feng was taken aback, and couldn't help being surprised. Could there be something about him that Xue Hongze could win over?

"Of course there is a third reason." Xue Hongze smiled slightly, "And this third reason is the main reason why I favor you!"

Hearing this, Ling Feng couldn't help but frowned slightly. My own potential is not the main reason Xue Hongze wins me over! And this third reason turned out to be the most important reason for Xue Hongze to win him over!

What the hell is that? Ling Feng couldn't help feeling a little curious.

Seeing Ling Feng's questioning gaze, Xue Hongze smiled mysteriously, but asked, "I think with the strength of your Ling family, no matter how talented you are, it's impossible for you to become a master at the age of eighteen." A young innate peak martial artist, right?" At this point, Xue Hongze deliberately paused, carefully observing the expression on Ling Feng's face, and then slowly said: "I think there should be an extremely powerful teacher behind you. ?”

Hearing Xue Hongze's words, Ling Feng was slightly taken aback, and immediately returned to his usual indifferent expression.

Indeed, my strength has been increasing too fast all the time. Under normal thinking, everyone will naturally think that it is because of the guidance of a famous teacher that my cultivation can improve by leaps and bounds.

But Xue Hongze's words touched Ling Feng's secret!

Although Ling Feng concealed it extremely deeply, Xue Hongze still keenly captured his surprise at that moment, and couldn't help affirming his guess in his heart.

"Don't worry. I won't spy on your body to find out who your master is." Xue Hongze smiled lightly, "I just hope that if my Eastern Jin Dynasty is unfortunately attacked by the enemy and falls under the city of Longyuan , I hope your teacher can help me the Eastern Jin Dynasty once!"

Xue Hongze believed that since Ling Feng's master was able to make Ling Feng a peak young innate warrior at the age of eighteen, his own strength must have at least reached the spirit-gathering state, and maybe even higher!

Although the strong in the Gathering Spirit Realm are not allowed to participate in wars between countries, if the crisis is at the point of survival of the country, it is naturally impossible for the strong in the Spirit Gathering Realm to watch their country be wiped out by the enemy. as promised.

Therefore, if the Eastern Jin Dynasty can get help from such a strong man at a critical moment of survival, the benefits are self-evident.

After finishing speaking, Xue Hongze looked at Ling Feng quietly with a sincere face, waiting for his answer.

"My lord, I can't agree to your request without authorization. I will report to the teacher when I get back. As for whether he is willing to make a move, I'm not sure." Ling Feng apologized.

He does have a strong man like "Chi" as his teacher. But the current "Chi" is only the soul body, and the soul has not been fully recovered, so it is impossible to make a move. How could Ling Feng hastily agree to Xue Hongze's request?

"Alright." Xue Hongze nodded. He also knew that strong people are very personal characters, and it is not easy to invite a strong person, so he didn't force anything.

Xue Hongze turned his head and glanced at Xue Xiaoxiao, who had become very well-behaved since Ling Feng came, and couldn't help but smile, but a thought flashed in his mind, and his gaze fell on Ling Feng again: "Listen, little girl!" Novel, when you went to Maple Leaf City this time, you were besieged by a sixth-level congenital and two small innate peak warriors, and finally succeeded in killing them with a treasure, is it true?"

"It's true." Ling Feng nodded and admitted directly. After all, there are quite a few people who know about this matter, and he can't hide it even if he wants to, so it's better to admit it readily.

"Haha, it really is a boy born from a hero!" Xue Hongze laughed loudly, looked at Ling Feng with a blazing light in his eyes, and said in a loud voice, "I wonder if you are interested in fighting with me?"

"Fight with you?" Hearing Xue Hongze's request, Ling Feng was startled for a moment, and then a look of excitement gradually appeared on his face.

"Okay!" Ling Feng was very excited.

Being able to fight against the aloof Xue Hongze was something he had dreamed of. How could Ling Feng miss such a good opportunity so easily?

"Okay, come on!" Xue Hongze laughed loudly, looking more excited than Ling Feng.
