After Mr. Liu left, Chu Ming investigated the injuries of some purple flame divine cows.
Fortunately, he has the bloodline of the divine beast, and heals very strongly. I am afraid that the injury on his spine will recover in a few days. This also made Chu Ming relieved, and then he said to himself: "Since there will be a banquet in half a month, it means that he is going to expose his strength. Now that he has exposed his strength so early, is it good or bad?" He was a little confused.
But when Mr. Liu invited him, he was embarrassed to refuse to obey, so he had to agree.
"Forget it, the boat will naturally be straight when it reaches the bridge. Isn't there anyone else? Maybe I can't take action at all." Chu Ming smiled indifferently, then meditated in the yard, with a trace of spiritual energy entering his body and beginning to condense his fifth body.
Chu Ming has such a strong strength, in addition to opportunities, he works harder.
Since leaving Xuanyang Sect, he has never slept for a day and has been practicing at night.
Ruolin and Zi'er watched Chu Ming start practicing again, and were slightly moved. When he entered this strange hall, most people were a combination of work and rest. After all, when they entered the life cultivation, they would sooner or later reach the peak of life cultivation. Why not enjoy life more? Chu Ming, besides practicing, he is practicing.
But this is also the reason why the two maids admire Chu Ming a little.
The strong need to have a heart that can endure loneliness.
When the next day, the golden sun broke through the void, Chu Ming opened his eyes slightly, and a ray of light flashed through it.
"Young master, let's have something to eat." Zi'er obediently brought a lot of snacks, which were a little warm, obviously just made.
For monks, they actually don’t need to eat any food, but some people pursue this desire. Zi'er and the others, as maids of the Weishi Hall, naturally need to know these things.
Looking at the light green pastry, Chu Ming also aroused a little greedy. He calculated carefully that he hadn't eaten these foods for a long time. He picked up one and put it in his mouth, which made him exclaim: "It melts at the mouth, Zi'er's craftsmanship is good."
Zi'er smiled sweetly and put down the pastry: "Then eat more, Master."
Chu Ming nodded with a smile.
Soon, three palm-sized pastries were swallowed by Chu Ming and stuffed them into his mouth, and then he stopped with satisfaction.
"Young Master, Miss Lanting is here."
At the same time, Ruolin Qiao appeared in front of Chu Ming, as if after yesterday's incident, the two maids' attitude towards Chu Ming also changed slightly. If they were more afraid in the past, then now they have more respect.
Chu Ming's strength and killing the Gu brothers for a monster are indeed worthy of their respect.
It seemed as if it was insinuated. If the two of them were threatened, would Chu Ming go to save them?
Chu Ming looked up and saw the pretty figure behind Ruolin at a glance. A familiar fragrance came into his nose, making him smile, and then said, "This is made by Zi'er. It's good craftsmanship. Ruolin, you can try it too." Then he stuffed a pastry into Ruolin's hand.
Ruolin was stunned, then nodded heavily. No one saw that the moment she turned around, a trace of tears fell.
Respect is a luxury for their maids.
"Can't you tell that you are still very gentle?" Lanting had long lost his strangeness as before. She sat directly next to Chu Ming, picked up a pastry and tasted it.
Chu Ming smiled bitterly. After this girl got to know her, she often mocked her. Of course, she was just funny and had no malice.
But today, Lanting was a little strange. After eating the pastry, he actually poured the wine and started drinking it by himself. Although he was laughing, the sadness in his eyebrows did not escape Chu Ming's eyes.
He didn't have to ask in a hurry, and drank with Lanting.
During this period, Lanting didn't say a word, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Until the pot of wine was drunk, Chu Ming slowly raised his head, looked at Lanting with a slightly red face and said, "What's wrong."
As soon as this said, Lanting's delicate body shook, and then a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "The leaves follow the wind, the grass follows the soil, the mountains follow the stones, and I can only follow my home..." She said a meaningful sentence, then took the wine sent by Zi'er and started drinking it again.
Chu Ming's brow suddenly arose. From Lanting's words, he seemed to hear that the other party had encountered something that could not be decided.
"Can you tell me if you still treat me as a friend?" Chu Ming snatched the wine pot and poured himself a glass.
Maybe she was a little drunk, maybe Lanting wanted to be drunk on purpose, her eyes were a little confused, she looked at Chu Ming and smiled: "If I marry you, will you marry me?"
As soon as this said, Chu Ming's face suddenly darkened, and then he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I already have a lover."
Lanting smiled even more miserably: "Is it the woman who is very similar to me?"
Chu Ming took a sip of the drink and nodded.
Then, there was another silence.
Until the stars and the moon were hanging high and the wind was a little cold, Lanting stood up again and walked outside the Chu Ming villa. Until she left the villa, her gentle voice came into Chu Ming's ears: "The family forced me to marry the black demon who was the number one in the Yishi Hall..."
The sound was still drifting, and the figure of Lanting had disappeared into the night, leaving only a trace of bleakness.
"Oh..." After a long time, Chu Ming sighed: "Born in a family of officials, maybe this is a woman's helplessness." Chu Ming had known for a long time that Lanting was the daughter of Lan Yang, the Grand Secretary of the Liu Dynasty, but in this era when he valued martial arts and over literature, the Grand Secretary had nothing to do with it!
It was clearly for the sake of the family's inheritance that Lan Yang married Lanting to the No. 1 Black Demon in the Wise Hall.
No matter what, it can be exchanged for the endurance of the Talan family.
Chu Ming couldn't tell who was wrong or who was right in this matter. After all, this was the Lan family's business, but he had some sympathy for Lanting...
"Young Master, what are you going to do? This Miss Lanting is very pitiful." Zi'er spoke quietly from behind Chu Ming. As a woman, she could understand Lanting's suffering better.
Chu Ming slowly turned around, looked at the two girls with depression, and then showed an unfathomable smile: "What do you think I will do?" As he said that, he got up and left the place, and went to the stone room to retreat again.
Only these two confused maids were left behind.
In the stone chamber, Chu Ming sat cross-legged, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. Will he really let Lanting’s tragic fate not be saved? That’s not him, and that kind of man is not worthy of calling him a man!
From Lanting's words, it is not difficult for Chu Ming to find that although this girl is not moved by her, she seems to be more willing to be with her than the Black Demon.
"Although I can't become lovers with you, Chu Ming has always treated you as my sister." Chu Ming's voice slowly came out: "Since you don't want it, no one can force you. Didn't the Lan family just value the talent of the black demon? If Chu Ming showed a stronger talent and threatened to protect your Lan family, maybe you would change your mind."
After the words came to an end, a light flashed outside Chu Ming's body and disappeared directly into the stone chamber.
The void space, retreat begins again!
And at the same time, in the royal city.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." A middle-aged man bowed to the emperor, and a trace of wisdom flashed between his eyebrows. It was Lan Family Grand Silang Yang!
"Forget it, hehe." The Emperor Liu sat on the dragon throne and then smiled and said, "I can be a matchmaker for you, but are you sure you want to marry Lanting to the black demon? Although this person is very talented, he seems to be very domineering to women. If he marry Lanting, the girl, he will probably not have a good life in the future."
Obviously, the emperor and Lan Yang had a good relationship, so there was no taboo, so he spoke directly.
Lan Yang nodded with a wry smile. How could he have never heard of Black Demon as a human being? He had to get everything he wanted. Moreover, the maid changed ten times, and all the maids who left died. His miserable appearance would be known without thinking too much.
"Your Majesty said, but no one in my Lan family practiced. If you don't rely on the black demon, you're afraid...ah..." Lan Yang sighed.
As soon as this said, a ray of light flashed in the emperor's eyes: "I have a suggestion, I wonder if you would like to listen."
"Of course I have to listen to your Majesty's intentions." Lan Yang said.
"Recently, a newcomer named Chu Ming came to Yishitang, who is very talented and I am very optimistic. Although he is a little more frivolous, he is a kind and kind person. I heard that your Lanting family has a good relationship, so you can consider it." The emperor said meaningfully.
"Are you talking about Chu Ming?"
Li Yang was stunned. He naturally knew that Lanting and Chu Ming were very close, and it was more than once. If they were discovered by the black demon, their Lan family would probably stay without any hesitation.
"No," the emperor smiled and said, "This person is very talented, if you are willing..."
"It's still not necessary." Li Yang smiled bitterly and said, "If you change your mind at this time, not only will my Lan family suffer, but I am afraid that even Chu Ming, the child, will be attacked by the Black Demon. Although Chu Ming is very talented, he is not a match for the Black Demon. I can't harm this child."
Obviously, Li Yang is a kind person.
The emperor nodded: "Since that's the case, I won't force you, go down." Then Li Yang left, and the emperor rubbed his eyebrows: "The black demon is now a seven-body cultivation life. It is rare to have a strong talent, but it is difficult to reuse this person. Now that Mr. Liu is restrained, will he still work hard for my Liu Dynasty after he arrives... Alas..." He just wanted to use Chu Ming to restrain the black demon, but he also knew that although Chu Ming is powerful, it still takes some time.
Time is slowly coming, and in a blink of an eye, the half-month deadline has arrived.
During this half month, Chu Ming's villa became quiet rarely.
The geniuses have all gone out, and the Gu brothers were killed by Chu Ming again. Who would dare to come here to make trouble without opening their eyes? There is indeed one who ranks above the Gu brothers, but he is also in seclusion, meeting for the genius in half a month.
And in the stone chamber, when the light flashed, Chu Ming's body appeared again, and he held his mouth: "The world rat has grown up again, and uses his soul power to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the spiritual energy of both the dragon god realm and the immortal tribe in the outside world, and the five times faster than ordinary people's cultivation!"
"I just walked through the life-cultivation realm of life-and-death death. The line of life and death is even more difficult than that sacrifice to the dirt. The road to cultivation is indeed very difficult." Chu Ming smiled indifferently, but his eyes exuded confidence in a strong thunder.
