Ling Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was no emotion or anger on his face.
"Oh? Then tell me, what does my relationship with Demon Suppression Division have to do with you?"
Although his tone was very calm, Zhang Mu could not help but turn pale, knowing that he had said the wrong thing.
Then his knees bent and he fell to the ground too, burying his head and not daring to speak any more.
"Okay, get up."
Ling Yun glanced at him lightly, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
Although he didn't know anything about the way to control his subordinates, sometimes necessary beatings like this were still necessary.
Zhang Mu also stood up anxiously, glanced at Li Tao helplessly, and took two steps back, not daring to say anything more.
Li Tao was still kneeling on the spot, his body trembling slightly, knowing that his life now depended on Ling Yun just a thought.
At this moment, Ling Yun's indifferent voice also sounded in his ears.
"Since Zhang Mu respects you so much, then I will give you a chance."
"But if you want to stay with me, you have to prove your worth first."
"Give you two days to find this person. No matter what method you use, invite him here."
After the words fell, a book was thrown in front of Li Tao.
Li Tao suddenly felt happy. Although Ling Yun did not agree directly, there was a glimmer of hope now.
"Thank you, Lord Ling!"
Li Tao saluted Ling Yun, and even the title he used changed.
Then he carefully picked up the book and looked at the name above. Although it felt inexplicably familiar, he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Meng Wu..." He muttered a few words in a low voice and kept them in his heart.
Ling Yun waved his hand, looking indifferent.
"There's no need to thank me in a hurry. If things don't work out, you don't have to appear in front of me."
Li Tao's expression remained unchanged and he was not too worried.
With his ability, as long as this person is still in Cloud City, he can be found in less than a day.
When the time comes, even if we have to tie him up, we must tie up this guy named Meng Wu!
At this time Ling Yun closed his eyes and seemed a little tired.
The two of them did not dare to disturb any more. After looking at each other, they respectfully left the courtyard.
After they left, Xiao Lu walked over.
Seeing that Ling Yun seemed to be sleeping with his eyes closed, he thoughtfully held a small feather fan and started to fan it gently.
Gradually, Ling Yun's brows couldn't help but feel relieved.
Ling Estate Outer courtyard.
Zhang Mu and Li Tao walked forward side by side.
"Brother Zhang, thank you for what happened this time." Li Tao cupped his hands and said seriously.
If it was just to repay the kindness at the beginning, now it can't help but really develop a desire to make friends.
Zhang Mu waved his hand and didn't pay attention. He just patted his shoulder hard.
"Harm, you and my brother, why are you talking about this?"
"Don't worry, I will arrange for the brothers below to find that guy for you right away."
Looking at the big hands on his shoulders, Li Tao could not help but frown slightly, as if he hated such an intimate gesture.
Zhang Mu couldn't help but rolled his eyes when he saw this.
"I said you kid, why are you so coy and coquettish that you act like a girl?"
"In the future, you and I will work under Master Ling, so we have to be closer and closer."
"I heard Master Ling say that the best way to bring brothers closer is to carry guns and go whoring together."
"Although I don't know what a gun is, at least I understand the latter."
Having said this, Zhang Mu couldn't help but reveal a lustful smile.
"When this thing is over, I will take you to Hundred Spring Brothel to have a good time. The girls there, tsk tsk, are more lively than the last!"
He was beaming as he spoke, but he didn't notice the strange look in Li Tao's eyes at all.
He quietly took two steps back, touched a jade pendant on his chest, and whispered, "Don't worry, do you think I am that kind of person?"
"Okay, okay, I swear it'll be alright."
"What are you muttering about?" Zhang Mu seemed to be aware of it, and turned his head in confusion.
Li Tao looked calm and shook his head calmly.
Zhang Mu looked him up and down, then shrugged, not caring at all.
The two of them walked in tandem and soon left the Ling Estate gate.
Time flew by, and soon it was night.
At this time, he was in a brightly lit room in the inner courtyard of Ling Estate.
Through the screen window, under the light of the fire, you can vaguely see two figures busy doing something inside.
"Master, this is not going to work. I can't hold on any longer!"
"Just be patient and you'll be fine soon!"
"But, this servant is a little scared..."
"It doesn't matter, keep going, don't stop!"
"Yes, sir..."
inside the room.
I saw the maid Xiao Lu sweating profusely, enduring the high temperature, and stuffing the wood in her hand into the stove in front of her.
The originally fair face was now a little burnt black.
Above the stove, a huge cauldron was raised high.
The crimson liquid inside was steaming.
And Ling Yun is now naked, with his eyes closed, soaked in liquid.
He did not use his energy and blood to resist, but relied entirely on his physical body to resist the erosion of the surrounding high temperature.
Naturally, he didn't do this because of any special hobbies.
These days, in addition to trying to break through the Celestial Origin Realm, he also plans to integrate Vajra Body and Iron Bell Body into an intermediate martial arts just like Tiger-Hundred Crack Saber Technique.
Unfortunately, it was a little different from the previous fusion of Tiger-Hundred Crack Saber Technique. No matter how he deduced it, he could never combine the two techniques into one.
In desperation, we can only try to use some external forces.
Now, this is the method he came up with based on some theories he got from the book and combined with his own situation.
Using the high temperature and high pressure environment, coupled with the medicinal materials that stimulate the physical body that were invested in advance, helped him successfully integrate the two techniques.
At this time, as the temperature rose sharply, Ling Yun's entire body was wrapped in rising smoke.
Xiao Lu on the side saw this, and his eyes were a little frightened. He was probably not going to cook someone to death.
But in my mind, I couldn't help but remember that when I was a child, when the New Year came, their village would set up such a big pot, and then throw the big fat pigs that had been raised for a year into the pot and simmer.
Although there was no seasoning, it was her happiest time of the year.
Thinking of this, she made a slurp at the corner of her mouth, and a line of drool drooled unsatisfactorily.
At this moment, Ling Yun happened to open his eyes.
Looking at this scene, a few black lines couldn't help but appear on my forehead. What on earth is this little girl thinking in her head?
"Okay, the heat is almost done. Remember to come back and add more heat after a few hours."
Ling Yun warned and slowly closed his eyes again.
Xiao Lu nodded her little head, then struggled to lift a pot lid next to her that was larger than half of her body, and closed the iron pot completely.
For a while, there was no other sound except the gurgling sound of boiling in the pot.
Xiao Lu couldn't help but swallow his saliva and shouted tentatively.
"Sir, are you okay?"
"Yeah." After a moment of silence, a faint voice came from inside.
Xiao Lu then breathed a sigh of relief and felt completely relieved.
At this time, the temperature in the room also rose to an unbearable level.
It was getting late now, and she didn't dare to go back to her room alone.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at the blazing fire, and turned around to the inner room.
After scrubbing his body a little, he looked at the bed in the corner. After hesitating for a moment, he carefully leaned half of his body on it.
Feeling the scent of Ling Yun on the quilt, her face turned a little red.
I don't know if it was because of the fireworks just now, or if there is another reason.
