Chapter 15 General Ling Returns to the Court (1)

"Have you heard that General Lingyuan of the General's Mansion won a victory at the border, and the emperor issued an imperial decree today to summon General Ling back to the court to report on his work. I heard that he will be back in half a month."

"Yeah, I heard about it too." In Cangli Tower, the largest teahouse in Jianglan City, tea drinkers were chatting about the latest new topics in Kyoto.

"There have been a lot of good things happening in the General's Mansion recently. I heard that the good-for-nothing Fourth Miss Ling Chenxi has been cured of her illness, and Ling is now an intermediate cultivator and a second-level intermediate alchemist." In the hall, tea drinkers were discussing with relish the aristocratic family, which has been the biggest topic in Jianglan City recently.

In an exclusive tea room on the third floor, two handsome men were drinking tea while listening to the gossip of the tea drinkers in the lobby on the first floor. "Ling Chenxi? Isn't that the girl that the Palace Master asked Mo Ran to investigate a few days ago?" One of the men, who looked gentle and elegant and dressed like a nobleman, said.

"Well, Mo Ran has already investigated it clearly." Another handsome man, wearing an ink-colored robe and exuding a cool aura, responded.

In the general's mansion, Ling Chenxuan, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, was on duty in the morning when he received a notice from the commander Wen Yong (a mid-level cultivator of the Gold Spirit Sect, the brother-in-law of the three Ling Chenxuan siblings, and married to the sister of Ling Xiao, the apprentice of the second elder), that his father who was guarding the border had won a victory.

The emperor had called the court in the morning to report immediately, and the imperial edict had been sent to the border and the general's mansion, asking him to return home quickly to inform General Ling and the others.

Ling Chenxuan returned home and immediately notified the servants to get the three elders, his younger brothers and sisters, and his second uncle Ling Zhi's family of four to gather in General Ling's study, saying that there was something important to announce.

When everyone gathered in the study, Ling Chenxuan told everyone what the commander of the imperial guards had told him during the morning shift. As soon as he finished speaking, the chief guard came outside the study to report that the eunuch from the palace had come to announce the imperial edict and asked them to go out to receive it.

The group arrived at the outer courtyard and saw the palace eunuch chief steward, Eunuch Li, standing in the courtyard. General Ling hurriedly walked over and said with a smile, "Eunuch Li, what brings you here? Please come in and sit down."

Entering the reception hall, Eunuch Li drank the tea served by the maid and said, "General Ling, you are too polite. We came here because the emperor had told us so.

When everyone heard this, they knelt down and listened to the oral instructions. "When General Ling Yuan was defending the border, he led his troops bravely and repelled the monster army that suddenly entered the border town.

He protected the people of Liancheng. He was specially appointed as the general of the state, and he was sent back to the court to report on his work. The imperial edict of the appointment has been sent to the border. General Ling will be able to arrive in Kyoto in half a month. "

"We have received your order. Long live the emperor." General Ling led everyone in answering in unison.

"Old general, get up. You have drunk the tea and passed on the instructions. We will return to the palace to report." Eunuch Li said.

"Goodbye, eunuch. Please accept this bottle of level 3 spirit-enhancing elixir. Thank you for making this special trip for me." The second elder said as he respectfully accepted the elixir.

After respectfully bidding farewell to Eunuch Li, who had delivered the message, General Ling happily instructed the Ling Chenxuan brothers to send someone to clean up the yard where General Ling lived, in preparation for welcoming the general home...

"Grandpa, you asked everyone to do everything, but I was not assigned any tasks. What should I do?" Ling Chenxi pouted with an unhappy look on his face.

"Who said you have nothing to do? You have a lot of work to do. Just work with the Second Elder and Ling Xiao in the Alchemy Hall to refine some Soul-Repairing Pills, Recovery Pills and Qi-Replenishing Pills so that your father and the soldiers can come back to rest and replenish their bodies." Old General Ling smiled dotingly.

"Yes, sister, you can also go to the street to find a better weapon, and give it to daddy as a gift when he comes back." Ling Chenhong also said with a doting look on his face.

"Okay, I'll go out and buy some later, and come back to help my foster father and cousin." Ling Chenxi said happily, and then ran out of the door.

Ling Chenxi walked out of the General's Mansion and looked at the people walking on the street. "Where can I buy some good weapons?" he thought as he walked. He looked up and saw Cangjin Auction House.

"Isn't this the Cangjin Auction House where my foster father bought the bronze tripod last time? It's said to be the highest auction house in the continent. Hey, we can go in and see if there are any high-level or mid-level earth-level weapons suitable for Daddy to use."

Then he walked into the auction house. "Boss, can you sell the goods here directly?" Ling Chenxi asked.

The shopkeeper looked at a pretty little girl who walked in and said, "So you are the fourth young lady of the General's Mansion. The goods here can be sold separately, but some of them are more expensive than the auction price."

"It's okay. Are there any earth-level weapons for men?" Ling Chenxi asked.

"Yes, sir, please come this way." The shopkeeper said, and led the customer to the weapons rack on the second floor to choose.

Ling Chenxi saw the weapons on the weapon rack on the second floor and was happily selecting them. Unaware, the person who was waiting for him had been replaced. (It was the gentle and elegant man in the VIP room on the third floor of the teahouse.)

This person is Xu Songming, one of the three main people in charge of Li Jinhan's Qinglan Palace and the head of the Danyao Hall (a high-level medicine fairy, a high-level peak spiritual emperor cultivator with fire and wood attributes.

People from the upper realm will be suppressed by those in the lower realm). "Sir, have you chosen the weapon you like?" Xu Songming asked with a gentle smile.

After drinking tea with Li Jinyi today, I stayed in the auction house. Suddenly, I heard the shopkeeper call the guest "the fourth lady of the general's mansion".

Peeking out from the inner room, "Hey, is that the fourth young lady who is said to have turned from a waste into a genius that our Prince Iceberg is interested in?" Xu Songming said to Mr. Ye, the alchemist appraiser of the auction house.

"Yes, it's this lady." Mr. Ye replied.

"Well, go call the shopkeeper down and I'll go greet her." After saying that, he stood up and walked out.

Ling Chenxi just pointed at an earth-grade silver spear (with "Feiyun Spear" written on it) and turned to the shopkeeper to ask how much it cost.

It turned out that the shopkeeper had left, and a handsome man was talking to him with a smile on his face. Thinking that he was a stool apprentice from somewhere, he said in a deep and angry voice, "Where is the shopkeeper? Where did he go?"

Xu Songming saw Ling Chenxi was angry and changed the receptionist. He hurriedly explained, "Don't be angry, Miss. I am the person in charge here. The shopkeeper went downstairs for something, so I came to receive you."

"Oh, so that's how it is. How much do you sell this Feiyun Spear and Qingshuang Sword for?" Ling Chenxi thought about how he was learning the Earth-level martial arts "Sword Soul Blade" that his adoptive father had given him two days ago, and he also wanted to buy himself a weapon. The soft sword next to the Feiyun Spear was quite light and agile. So he asked for the price of both.

"Miss, you have good taste. Both of these are seventh-level earth-level weapons. The Feiyun Spear is suitable for male cultivators, and the Qingshuang Soft Sword is suitable for girls. Two weapons will only cost 158,000 spirit gold coins (currency in circulation on the Canghai Continent).

"It's so expensive, can't it be cheaper?" Ling Chenxi asked expectantly.

"I'll give you a discount, one hundred thousand in total." Xu Songming said with a smile.

"Well, can you pack it for me and send it to the general's mansion and pay for it together?" Ling Chenxi asked (he was in a hurry to go out alone and didn't have that many spirit gold coins with him).

"Okay, I'll send someone to deliver it to you right away. By the way, I'll also give you our auction house's Black Supreme VIP card. From now on, you can consign your items and purchase goods at a 20% discount at any branch of our auction house." Xu Songming said gently.

After listening to this, Ling Chenxi accepted the VIP card, nodded, and went straight downstairs towards the general's mansion.

Xu Songming smiled and whispered, "Such a lovely and interesting girl, no wonder the Iceberg Palace Master is interested in her. Judging from her cultivation, she is a pretty good little genius."
