Chapter 12 Linghu Family Master

Upon hearing this shout, Daolian thought to herself that the person who spoke out had a strong cultivation, probably only slightly higher than her master. It seemed that Linghu Shuang had returned.

Anyway, I have reason to travel around the world. What's so scary? Thinking of this, he kept walking and strode into the reception hall. Ling Feng behind him had no choice but to follow.

There was indeed a man in splendid attire sitting in the hall, looking quite old but with a face like a crown of jade. His eyes were as bright as stars, and he had a long black beard under his chin, adding a sense of heroism and authority.

Daolian thought to herself, is it because this old man takes good care of himself on a daily basis that he often changes his appearance? His face is the capital for eating? It seems that this old man is probably Linghu Shuang.

The old man raised his eyes and stared at Daolian.

Daolian immediately felt a surge of pressure coming towards her, and quickly resisted with luck. She rooted her feet and didn't embarrass herself.

Ling Feng clasped his fists and bowed respectfully behind him, saying, "Young Ling Feng, pay respects to Mr. Linghu."

The old man was indeed Linghu Shuang, the Thousand Faced Fox. Linghu Shuang frowned and said, "Excuse me, nephew Ling Xian. Who is the distinguished guest standing in front of you? I apologize for Linghu's clumsiness. At first glance, he looks like your master, the Golden Haired Tiger Duan, an old hero. Upon closer inspection, this disguise technique still needs some preparation."

Dao Lian thought to herself, "Are you really an expert?" At first glance, she saw that she was a counterfeit who had changed her appearance. She smiled and said, "It's still Mr. Linghu who is very clever. I owe my appearance to your young master Linghu."

Linghu Shuang stroked her long beard with her hand and frowned, saying, "Linghu has only one daughter under her knee. I wonder who Linghu Young Master is in your mouth. Perhaps you misunderstood?"

Daolian was shocked and quickly turned a few thoughts in her mind, saying, "Um... may I ask your daughter to come and see me?"

Linghu Shuang was also drumming in her heart, and had already guessed a few points. She said to the servant next to her, "Go and invite Xueer."

The servant went, and Linghu Shuang invited Daolian and Ling Feng to sit down and offer fragrant tea before saying, "Nephew Ling Xian, can you tell me what's going on?"

Ling Feng hesitated and blushed, unable to explain why, while Dao Lian just smiled silently.

Around the time of a cup of tea, a young girl wearing a water green silk shirt curled up and passed by in a blink of an eye. She scanned several people in the hall and frowned slightly when she saw Ling Feng.

Daolian noticed that Ling Feng's eyes were fixed on the girl beside her, and her face turned even redder.

This young girl is actually a stunning beauty. If the beauty of Princess Mengyuan, Emina, is a heroic fairy who does not eat human fireworks, then the beauty of the woman in front of her is a clever and lovely elf who has fallen into the mortal world.

Her naturally playful appearance is likable, as if even if she makes a mistake, as long as she opens her watery eyes and flattens her pitiful little mouth, it can completely dispel her anger.

Daolian thought to herself, "It seems that this girl is the daughter of Linghu Shuang, probably named Linghu Xue. She is somewhat similar to Linghu Fang. Linghu Shuang is a famous figure in the martial arts world, so she probably won't lie to me..."

There are quite a few beautiful women in this city of Beiping, much stronger than the place where I was born and raised.

Linghu Xuelue said in a coquettish tone, "Dad, Xueer is resting. Why wake him up?"

Linghu Shuang asked, "Xue'er, do you know the people below the hall?"

Linghu Xue glanced at him for a moment and said calmly, "The old hero of the Golden Haired Tiger section and his disciple Ling Feng, we have met before. Dad, why do you need to ask me again?"

Linghu Shuang frowned and said, "That's not an old hero. Please take a closer look."

Linghu Xue bounced up and down to Daolian, approaching her face. Upon closer inspection, Daolian smelled a intoxicating sweetness in her nose and couldn't help but look back slightly.

Linghu Xue looked at it for a while before clapping her hands and laughing, "Ha, it's really not Duan An, the Golden haired Tiger. He has been disfigured. Dad, this person's technique is not bad. I didn't even notice his daughter at first."

Dao Lian smiled and said, "Linghu Young Master, haven't you seen me in two days? Are you safe?" Linghu Xue was taken aback by the words, then covered her chest and chuckled, "This great hero's eyes are really not good. I am a young lady, but you have seen me as a young master, let alone something we have never seen before."

Daolian noticed that Ling Feng's gaze at Linghu Xue seemed to be burning with fire, almost salivating. It seemed that this kid had been captivated by Linghu, the girl.

Daolian smiled and said, "Oh, Miss Linghu, are you sure that I have never seen you or been to the mansion?"

Linghu Xue said displeased, "Yes, what are you guys doing here? Dad, if there's nothing else, my daughter needs to go back to her room and rest!"

Upon hearing this, Daolian still wore a smile on her face and said calmly

"The second guest room on the left side of your mansion's backyard has a wooden bed on the left side, with a white embroidered pillow on top. It is a top-quality Su embroidery, embroidered in pairs. On the right side, there is a brown desk with the four treasures of study, especially the Duan inkstone, which is light in weight, hard and soft in texture, and feels lonely and without any sound. It truly deserves to be the top ten famous inkstones of Tianqi..."

"You..." Linghu Xue changed her expression and secretly glanced at Linghu Shuang.

At this moment, Linghu Shuang's face was really covered with a layer of cold frost, and he shouted sternly, "Xue'er, do you still have to lie now?"

Linghu Xue moved her feet in frustration and said, "Perhaps some servant told them about the decorations in our guest room..."

Linghu Shuang laughed back angrily and said, "Servants? Can you recognize the variety and quality of that Duan inkstone? Hmph, in the entire city of Beiping, besides me and you, who else has such a disguise method?"

Linghu Shuang turned to look at Daolian and said solemnly, "Your Excellency, the little girl is careless in discipline and has a stubborn nature. She lost her mother in her childhood, and it's all because my family's discipline is not strict, which makes you laugh. However... can you tell me the whole story?"

Daolian saw that Linghu Shuang was open-minded and did not protect her shortcomings, but she really felt a bit of admiration. She reported to her family and told them everything about the past two days in detail.

After listening to Daolian's story, Linghu Shuang's expression worsened and she shouted to Linghu Xue:

"Nonsense, you're just fooling around. It's right to rescue the old hero, but you shouldn't just harm this master so inexplicably. So, what is the hero's behavior?"

Ling Feng prostrated himself upon hearing this and clasped his fists, saying, "Master Linghu, all of this is my nephew's idea. It's not about Xueer's business. My nephew is also eager to save his master, and he couldn't do it for a while. He also scolded me severely, and I hope the master can rest his anger..."

Linghu Xue glared angrily at Ling Feng with a pair of beautiful eyes, stomped her feet, and said angrily:

"Get up, you weakling! You haven't made any progress at all. If it weren't for saving the old hero Duan, I shouldn't have helped you. It was all your fault that made him come here! There's not enough success, there's more than defeat!"

Ling Feng stood up at the words and retreated to the side, with a swollen face resembling pig liver.

Then, Linghu Xue looked at Daolian and said, "Dad, he is being disrespectful to me in the dungeon. It's also appropriate for him to suffer some hardships!"

"Indulgence!" Linghu Shuang interrupted her drink with a single sound, and the teacup buzzed a few times. The pain in Daolian's ear was also faint. Linghu Xue's delicate body trembled with fear, afraid to say more, and tears were already streaming down her eyes.

"Hmph, Master, how could you be such an outsider? Moreover, you have transformed into a graceful young master. Who would have harbored evil thoughts towards you? You have ruined the face of my dignified Linghu family!"

Linghu Shuang paused for a moment, exhaled a long breath, and said, "What did you promise Master?"

Linghu Xue dared not disobey at this moment and obediently said, "Teach him the art of disguise, cover up the fragrant scar on his head..."

"Okay!"

Linghu Shuang said, "Since that's the case, please apologize to the master and continue to fulfill your promise. Our Linghu family's words are unforgettable, so don't smear Linghu's face anymore. For a month, I will personally teach this master the art of disguise. If he still hasn't learned it by then, Hmph, you know the consequences!"

Daolian didn't expect things to go so smoothly. At this moment, she was naturally overjoyed and looked at Linghu Xue with a smile.

Linghu Xue wiped away her tears with her sleeve, stared at Daolian, and said, "I made a mistake in my oversight. I hope you can forgive me, Master."

Daolian chuckled and said, "Okay, okay. As long as you can teach me the art of disguise, I won't blame you."

Linghu Shuang shouted, "Do you hear me? Why don't you go wash off the master's disguise?"

Linghu Xue led Daolian out of the reception hall, and Linghu Shuang then shifted her gaze to Ling Feng.

"How good is the teacher?"

Ling Feng stared blankly at the direction in which Ling Huxue had disappeared.

Linghu Shuang emphasized her tone and called out, "Nephew Ling Xian!"

Ling Feng regained his composure and awkwardly replied, "Thank you for your blessings, old man. My master is very good."

Linghu Shuang sighed and said, "It's not that Linghu is unwilling to help the Yellow Shirt Army, but that Linghu is located in the city of Beiping, with countless pairs of eyes fixed on him. If he wants to make a move, it's too conspicuous. Besides, as you can see, I have such an unworthy daughter, which is really reassuring... I hope that the old hero Duan can understand my suffering."

Ling Feng calmed down and said, "Actually, Xue'er Bingxue is smart and kind. Don't blame her. Everything was my nephew's idea. When we went to the execution ground to save this master, Xue'er was always with us. She even reminded me to save him..." "Oh..." Linghu Shuang's tone changed and he said, "That's all right, Lingxian nephew. Do you want to rest at the mansion?"

Ling Feng hurriedly said, "No, no, my master is still waiting for me. I'm leaving now, young nephew."

After finishing speaking, he bowed to Linghu Shuang and left Linghu Mansion.

Linghu Shuang watched Ling Feng leave and whispered to herself, "This kid has a special fondness for Xueer, and his feelings are difficult for him. However... he has a narrow mind, short vision, and is not a big shot. Ah... when will my daughter be able to understand..."

"Ouch! Please be gentle, it hurts me so much!"

At this moment, there came the painful cries of the lotus.
