Ling’s sudden appearance caught Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi off guard. Luckily, he didn’t come to cause trouble. The current situation couldn’t have any flaws. The level of the Magic Beasts guarding the cave wasn’t something the three of them could deal with. They could only find an opportunity, so the three of them could only hold their breath and look at each other, but their expressions were different.
Ling smiled indifferently and didn’t panic at all. Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi quickly calmed down after the initial shock. The two of them stared at Ling with their black eyes. The three of them had the same thought. If they wanted to talk, they should wait until the current crisis passed.
“Ling Xiao, go over and take a look.” A voice came from the cave, as if it had some echoes, deep and powerful. The huge bird that was circling in the sky cried and flapped its huge wings fiercely. The huge black shadow in the sky had already left.
Qu Lanyi and Yun Feng both understood that the light element seed was very likely in the cave, and they also understood that the guardian of the light element seed was also extraordinary! Putting Lord Shen Wu aside, the few God King Magic Beasts around the cave couldn’t be bypassed easily. It seemed that they would return empty-handed this time.
Yun Feng looked at Qu Lanyi with her black eyes. Qu Lanyi immediately nodded and turned around with Yun Feng. Qu Lanyi glanced at Ling and jumped from the tree, flashing away. Ling naturally went up quickly behind. After leaving the core area, the three of them arrived at a safe area. The dark elements around Qu Lanyi were removed. Yun Feng looked at Ling and frowned slightly.
“Did you kill those Magic Beasts?”
Ling chuckled. “I’m here to help Young Lady Yun to avoid future trouble.”
Qu Lanyi sneered. “Xuan Yi, you don’t have to pretend to be kind. If it weren’t for you, how would you have alerted those few beasts in the core area?”
He pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, but the smile at the corners of Ling’s mouth didn’t change. “Even if I didn’t do that, you wouldn’t get anything. ”
Yun Feng pursed her lips. It was indeed as he said, but his unnecessary action alarmed those people. Their vigilance would inexplicably increase. It would be very difficult for her and Qu Lanyi to find a chance to break through.
“What are you doing here?” Qu Lanyi raised his brows. “Is the Xuan family really so idle that they let you wander outside for so long?”
Ling chuckled and patted the bottom of his uniform gently. “We’re just the same. Someone will certainly worry about the Xuan family’s business. I’ll just do my own things and pursue my people.” After saying that, Ling looked at Yun Feng with his black eyes. Yun Feng frowned. Why did this gaze make her uncomfortable? Pursuing his people? Was he chasing her?
“Young Lady Yun, it’s only been a while. You’ve changed my impression of you again.” Ling bowed slightly with a hint of respect in his tone. Yun Feng was a bit frustrated. “You don’t have to talk to me like this.” He had always had this attitude when she first met him in the Summoning Union. He lowered his identity in front of her. Wasn’t he also from one of the four families and had the same identity and status as Lanyi?
“Young Lady Yun is still Young Lady Yun after all. I can’t go overboard.”
“Hypocrite,” said Qu Lanyi mockingly. Ling’s face turned slightly cold. He pushed his glasses and didn’t say anything else.
Yun Feng pondered in her mind. What should she do right now? Since Ling was following her, she probably wouldn’t be able to get rid of him in a short period of time. She couldn’t expose the matter of the light element seed. Yun Feng was still a bit vigilant about him. It was impossible to tell if he was friend or foe right now.
“Young Lady Yun, why are you here with him?” Ling adjusted his emotions and expression and resumed his original humble and polite look. Yun Feng raised her brows slightly. “What about you? Why are you here?”
“Haha, I’m certainly here for the Summoning Union,” said Ling. Yun Feng was surprised. The Summoning Union? Was the Xuan family related to the Summoning Union?
“What happened to the Summoning Union that you have to run around as a receptionist?” said Qu Lanyi. Ling held back for a few seconds and finally replied, “This is the matter of the Summoning Union. You’re not qualified to know if you’re not a summoner.”
“I’m not interested in knowing either. Since you have something to do, go do your own thing. We’re not going the same way as you.”
The two men confronted each other. The atmosphere between the two of them was very heated. Every word was like sparks. Ling wasn’t angry. Instead, he smiled. “Really? Young Lady Yun, are you sure you don’t need my help?”
Yun Feng was stunned. She and Qu Lanyi were still lacking in strength to get the light element seed. With one more person, they would certainly have a higher chance of winning. However, could he be trusted? The timing of his appearance was so appropriate. What he did wasn’t all beneficial to her. For a
moment, Yun Feng couldn’t judge.
If it were just her and Lanyi, they would have to spend a long time and might return empty-handed. If that happened, they would suffer a loss.
“Young Lady Yun, you don’t have to be conflicted. I’m just helping you. I won’t ask you what you want to do. Of course, I won’t ask to share it.” Ling smiled. “Young Lady Yun, please believe that everything I do won’t hurt you. I really want to help you.”
Such humble words made Yun Feng a bit embarrassed. He really didn’t have to talk to her like this. Even though he said so, Yun Feng didn’t dare to take the risk when it concerned the Element Seed.
“Maybe…” Yun Feng wanted to reject him, but Qu Lanyi sneered. “If you say so,
I’ll certainly give you a chance.”
Yun Feng was surprised. How would Lanyi agree? Qu Lanyi whispered, “Even though you and I can do it, the chance of winning is too low and it’s too dangerous. Even I’m afraid that something might happen. I don’t want you to be injured. It’s good to have one more person. Even if he wants to steal the Element Seed, we’ll see if he has the ability.”
Yun Feng’s heart trembled. For her? He feared that she would be hurt?
Indeed, Lord Shen Wu, who had yet to show his face in the cave, and the three
God King Magic Beasts wandering outside were too dangerous. Even though Qu
Lanyi had the light element, he was still afraid that Yun Feng would be hurt. If Yun Feng was injured because of him, Qu Lanyi couldn’t accept that. Rather than that, he would rather let Xuan Yi join.
Xuan Yi stood aside and observed Yun Feng’s expression. Yun Feng glanced over with her black eyes. “If possible, please help.”
Ling chuckled and a graceful smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. “Of course I’m willing to work for Young Lady Yun.. Have I gained your trust?”
