Chapter 3: Calling dad? Even calling mom is useless!

  East borders the kingdom, prosperous Kyoto.

  Green stone lions, majestic on both sides, cluster and rise, in the middle of the vermilion gate, a meter-high gilded top, black lacquered door frame, with two golden characters "Ling Fu" written in bold font, dragon flying and phoenix dancing, solemn and dignified.

  The residence is deep and profound, revealing a rich cultural heritage.

  To the east are four major families of Guo State, with powers intertwined. They are the Ling family, Yun family, Jiang family and Ji family.

  Four big families, the Ling family being the first, but in recent years, with many things happening, people all know that the Ling family has been declining. Under the surface calmness, there are wolf-like ambitions of the other three families and various forces, eyeing covetously, waiting for an opportunity to rise.

  The Ling family's position is precarious, on the verge of collapse amidst turmoil.

  However, the centipede's bug died but did not stiffen, and without mentioning the continuation of the family's heritage for over a hundred years, even relying on Ling Tian, it is the current head of the household's strength, the ninth rank peak Tian Xuan, one foot has already entered the ranks of the sealed saint, in Dong Lin country, who dares to deceive?

  These past few days, Ling Wushuang's two personal bodyguards have been in a daze, unable to find their bearings. This Miss Wushuang, after returning from the imperial hunting grounds, was unconscious for a day and when she woke up, suddenly changed her personality!

  Before, her only daily task was to chase the Seventh Prince all over the capital, causing a ruckus and making it impossible for anyone to have peace. It really gave them headaches. But this time, she's been cooped up at home, not making a sound, which is making them even more anxious. Could it be that Miss Wushuang has been scared out of her wits and become an idiot?

  You're saying this is what karma looks like? Wudong miss was a waste before and now she's probably stupid too.

  However, let's get back to the point, they should worry about themselves first. The young lady almost lost her life this time, and when the master of the house returns, who knows how he will deal with them.

  At noon, the sun is just right.

  "Bang——bang——"

  In the backyard of the Ling family, a vacant lawn, a row of wooden stakes stood firmly, a small figure agilely wrapped around the stakes, swift movements stirring up the surrounding grass dust, flying and flipping with it.

  Two hands can become a knife, can become claws, can become a hammer, can become a stick!

  Chisel, cut, stab, each movement strikes accurately on the wooden stake.

  Two legs can become swords, can become sticks, can become whips, can become guns!

  Stretch out, kick back, spin around, every move can grasp the most suitable position for a strike, one hit to kill.

  "Boom——"

  A palm knife, fiercely chopped down, Ling Wusong's body did a backflip, and a pair of white soft boots landed steadily on the grass. Only a cracking sound was heard, not far away, a one-meter-thick wooden stake suddenly split open, and was actually chopped into two halves by a single hand!

  Ling Wushuang faintly withdrew her hand and clenched it into a fist. Her strength was recovering day by day, but this body still needed to be tempered.

  When and where, strength is always the most important thing, and that day's experience made her understand this point even more. The Star Continent, only respects martial arts.

  Through the limited memories in her mind, Ling Wushuang also came to understand that in this place, people cultivated Xuan Qi and revered martial power, calling themselves Xuan Masters.

  Xuán shì, xuán zhě, dì xuán, tiān xuán, fēng hào shèng zhě, diān fēng shén rén.

  Translation:

  Mysterious scholar, mysterious one, earth mystery, heaven mystery, title of sage, peak godly person.

  Xuan Shi level, step by step tempering, layer by layer rising, the higher you go, the more difficult it is. Even if one has exceptional talent, being stuck at the Earth Xuan boundary is countless.

  East of the kingdom, with a population of over 100 million, there are only two people who have been conferred the title of "Saint". From this, it can be inferred that the title of "Saint" is extremely rare. As for the pinnacle of divine beings, it's even more of a legend. The dragon's head is seen but not its tail, and in fact, no one has ever seen it.

  Ling Wu Shuang, at the age of five, during the mysterious power test, was completely and utterly devoid of any mysterious power fluctuations, and was determined to be a 'First-Class Waste', gloriously becoming the first waste in the history of the Ling family.

  "Come on slowly, there's no use in hurrying, at least not now. No one can easily take my life." If you want to talk about killing people, that's her old profession, but as for someone who can take her life, there wasn't anyone in the past, and in this life, she absolutely won't allow it!

  Ling Wushuang casually tidied up her clothes, stretched out a lazy waist comfortably, and walked into the house at an unhurried pace, with an extremely relaxed and leisurely demeanor.

  Work and rest are combined is the king's way, this delicate little body, she must be carefully maintained now.

  "Has Ling Wu's injury healed?" As soon as Ling Wu stepped into the room, a gentle and caring voice came from the doorway.

  Green clothes in a tight group, with a butterfly ribbon at the waist, light yellow and shallow, on top of the proud waves surging on the chest, a delicate face, like poetry and painting, this Lingyun Xi is said to be the national color and heavenly fragrance, it's not an exaggeration.

  Ling Wushuang didn't turn around, her eyes slightly lowered, and a faint smile spread across her lips, not reaching the bottom of her eyes.

  It's a pity to let Lingyun go, but since he came by himself, it would be impolite to refuse!

  "Unmatched?" Lingyun saw that Ling Wudou still had her back to him, ignoring him. Her slender eyebrows furrowed tightly, then suddenly relaxed as she smiled sweetly and said: "What's wrong, are you angry with your sister?"

  Seeing her still ignoring him, Lingyun took a deep breath and suppressed the anger churning inside. He sighed: "Isn't it enough that your sister apologized to you? At the imperial hunting grounds that time, I didn't expect such an unexpected event would occur, and it ended up getting you injured. It was my fault, and your sister has been feeling guilty and uneasy about it."

  Ling Yun smiled and stood at the gate of the courtyard, waiting for Ling Wushuang to come over like before, as busy as a bee.

  Wasn't it always like this, no matter what she did, this idiot would be fooled by just a few words? In order to get Grandpa's liking, she actually had to try hard to please this idiot, it's really unfair.

  "Then, let me see your sincerity in apologizing." The cold words had barely left his lips when a powerful aura suddenly burst forth from Ling Wu's body.

  Body shape leaps up, left hand becomes claw, with swift thunder not covering ear speed, towards Lingyun Xi's neck artery place strike!

  "What" Lingyun couldn't believe it, his eyes widened, and when he woke up from the shock, Ling Wusuo's hand was already on his chest.

  However, Lingyun's ninth-grade Xuanzhe's power was not fake, and at the same time he reflexively raised his hand to block it, a red protective Xuanqi burst out of his body, and he shouted: "Ling Wushuang, what are you doing?"

  "A life for a life," he snarled, counterattacking with his hands and feet.

  Soaring through the air, a whirlwind kick was unleashed, and a whip-like leg swept out with great force, as if entering an uninhabited land, tearing apart Lingyun Xi's protective aura with ease.

  Under absolute speed and power, everything is vain.

  Kill someone and then apologize, what's the use of these executioners? The original Ling Wushuang has indeed been harmed to death by Ling Yunxiu, and she actually used her body. So this justice will be sought by her.

  Life for life, it's that simple! Someone who wants her life, why would she still keep hers? Waiting to be ambushed again?

  "Is that all you've got?" Lingyun's beautiful eyes narrowed, her face flushing with anger and embarrassment. She immediately raised her hands, palms facing forward, to block her chest.

  "Bang—"

  A dull thud, Lingyun Xi had blocked the attack with her hand, but she hadn't expected that in the next instant, along with her entire body, she would be sent flying, sweeping out horizontally and falling several meters away.

  One move, just one move, and Lingyun Zhen was completely defeated.

  "You......you......" With great difficulty, Ling Yun struggled to prop himself up, his hands clutching at his chest as if to hold back the turmoil of blood and energy within. His eyes fixed on Ling Wu Shuang, who was approaching him with slow, deliberate steps, and all he could feel in his mind was terror, nothing but terror.

  She was a ninth-grade Xuan practitioner, yet she couldn't even withstand Ling Wusong's one move. It wasn't until then that Ling Yun realized the woman in front of her wasn't joking around; Ling Wusong really wanted her life!

  And she has that ability.

  Entanglement, anger, fear... all sorts of emotions surged to the top of her head, Lingyun Xi's face was twisted and abnormal, her beautiful eyes were completely red, and she shouted loudly without caring about her image: "Ling Wushuang, you have a big nerve, if you dare to kill me today, even the master of the house can't save you!"

  Ling Wushuang's lips curled coldly, "What does it matter? You're still going to die."

  People don't offend me, I won't offend people. If people offend me, I will return it a hundred times. This is her principle of doing things, simple but with no room for compromise.

  "Xuan's Power" Lingyun cherished both hands quickly flipping, gathering Xuan power, a tender shout, "Seal!"

  Fingers pinched and moved decisively, a red mysterious force formed a water curtain, which smashed down on Ling Wu's head.

  Earth Imprisonment Technique, Yellow Rank Merit Law.

  Ling Wushuang didn't think much of it, changing her fists to claws, and meeting the red mysterious energy that was coming straight at her face. She didn't retreat but instead advanced, splitting her hands apart, tearing through the red water curtain as if it were a piece of rotten cloth, without exerting any effort.

  However, Lingyun had never expected to be able to hurt her, and taking advantage of this momentary distraction, she made a last-ditch effort, gathered her spiritual energy, and flashed towards the gate of the courtyard, fleeing in disarray.

  When escaping, people can always tap into their potential. For example... Lingyun's legs moved rapidly, reaching his limits, and with the surging of blood and energy, he stumbled and staggered, yet still managed to sprint towards Ling Cang's courtyard, breaking through his own limits.

  "Dad, dad!" Lingyun covered his chest with one hand and ran away while shouting loudly, "Save me, save me, dad, hurry up and save me!"

  Ling Wushuang has gone mad! She never would have imagined that under the bright sky, in the main mansion of the Ling family, Ling Wushuang would actually dare to openly try to kill her, truly audacious and unscrupulous.

  "Want to run?" Ling Wu Shuang tore open the red mysterious energy, her small body appeared, and with a spin, she rushed out, "Ling Yun Xi, today no one can save you!"

  It's no use calling for your father or mother!
