“Ling Xu this ingrate! Ingrate! When have we ever mistreated him? He actually turned on us? Jerk! We can’t let him off like this, never!”
The butler of the first family was green with fury, howling in the hall, he had been the henchman of the Great Clan Elder for forty years. Most of the household matters must pass through his hands, even the sons of Great Clan Elder had less authority than him.
He had had a lot of contact with Ling Xu. Star coins, spirit cards, star rocks etc, were all given from him to Ling Xu. Ling Xu’s treatment in the first family was definitely second to none.
“This is my mistake.” The Great Clan Elder regained his composure, and with a low voice said: “I have cared too little for Ling Xu. Such a genius, how can he be so easily won over by money? I was too careless! Speak, what exactly is Ling Xu like?”
What was Ling Xu like?
The butler was stunned, he could not help but recall, he was somewhat uncertain, “A little boring, doesn’t like to speak much, not too happy, seems to be uninterested in anything.”
“Forget it.” Great Clan Elder shook his head and sighed, “Such a mistake made once, and we have suffered disastrous consequences. Now let’s think, how to save the situation. Have you managed to contact that person?”
The butler’s face seemed miserable, “Qi Ya rejected, seems like the rumours were true.”
Great Clan Elder pondered, “To be able to escape from Qi Ya’s hands, his abilities can’t be belittled, what about the others?”
“The only others who are willing to take up this offer, are the Hua Brothers.” The butler replied.
“The Hua Brothers?” Great Clan Elder had heard of these names before, his eyes lit up, “The two brothers, Hua Rong and Hua Sha?”
“Yes!” The butler was a little excited, “They are willing to accept this job, although the price is high, there’s only the two of them left out of the rest of the experts. The good thing is, although it is pricier, the Hua Brothers are easier to speak to, and are easier to get along with than Qi Ya.”
“Then the Hua Brothers it is!” Great Clan Elder was decisive, “Must be fast! The earlier we settle it, the better the situation is for us, the later the more passive we are.”
“One day later, they will be able to arrive!” The butler gritted his teeth, “Ling Xu and that fellow, they won’t be able to come up with any more tricks.”
Great Clan Elder revealed a look of satisfaction, “With them around, I’m relieved. Remember to remind them not to harm Gu Xue, I want her alive.”
“Yes!” The butler replied respectfully.

“You’re going to the Southern Cross Constellation?” Ling Xu stared unblinkingly at Tang Tian’s face, as if there were a flower on his face.
“Yes.” Tang Tian had a face of curiosity, “Eh, you heard of Southern Cross Constellation?”
“My master has mentioned it before.” Ling Xu had a look of reminiscence, “Don’t provoke the experts of the Thirteenth Palace, and people affiliated to Southern Cross Constellation, he said.”
Tang Tian had a look of astonishment, “Wow, your master is that formidable? He must have guessed that Southern Cross Constellation has a godlike young man, right, right!”
Suddenly, a shadow appeared out of the blue beside Tang Tian, “Who’s your master?”
Bing’s gaze were fixed rigidly on Ling Xu.
Ling Xu jolted up from his seat, and positioned into a wary stance, his pupils constricted, “Who are you?”
He could feel the menacing aura coming from the other party, this level of aura……. so strong!
Who was this fellow?
Tang Tian was shocked, he hurriedly got up, “He’s Bing, my Spirit General.”
“Spirit General?” Ling Xu eyed Bing suspiciously, “Your Spirit General is the same as you, rather unusual.”
“Really really? Haha! You sure have good eyesight!” Before Ling Xu’s blackened face, the exhilarated Tang Tian told Bing, “Hey, Uncle, don’t be so fierce, don’t scare the kid!”
Kid……
Ling Xu’s eyes widened, a raw nerve was touched, he jumped in fury, “You are the kid! Your whole family is made up of kids!”
Tang Tian had an “I knew it” expression, and said to Bing, “See, I told you so.”
Bing ignored Tang Tian, rather his gaze was fixed on Ling Xu, “What else did your master say?”
Ling Xu now knew that Bing was not dangerous, kept his spear, and snorted, as he was unhappy with Bing’s stare, “I forgot!”
Tang Tian patted Ling Xu’s shoulders, and comforted him, “Kid, one must be open-minded, my gosh, you actually succumbed to the level of a Spirit General?”
“Aries Constellation… …” Bing was trying hard to recollect, suddenly, wait, he spun around, and stared at Tang Tian with an unfriendly look, “What do you mean by succumbed to the level of a Spirit General?”
Tang Tian pretended not to hear, and yawned facing the sky.
Looking at the bickering duo, Gu Xue, who was playing with Yaya in her hands, suddenly felt how nice it would be if time could stop at this moment.

“Great Clan Elder, they are here!” The butler’s voice had a tinge of tremor.
“Let them in.” Great Clan Elder suppressed his happiness, and hurriedly instructed, while he stood up to greet them.
Two imposing figures appeared in the doorway, instantly blocking the light passing through the door. The duo walked to the front of Great Clan Elder. A strong sense of oppressiveness washed in, even the Great Clan Elder, who had seen numerous events of majestic scales, could not help but shudder in their presence.
Indeed, they are worthy to be listed in the top fifty experts of the entire Humble Forest Planet!
