Chapter 954 - A Special Kind of Talent (1/2)

”Well …” Qiu Ling finally pulled out a transmission stone and imbued some energy without thinking about it further.

Jinde jumped behind the door at once, scolding him fiercely. ”What are you doing, brat?!”

Qiu Ling once again blinked his eyes but he had already started to contact the other person so it would be weird to stop. He merely turned around as if that would help somehow.

Jinde facepalmed. That bear child! If he turned around, he'd be even easier to spot in the background! He stepped away even further and quietly complained about him to the child in his arms. ”See that big brother over there? He's handsome but stupid. In the future, when you've become bigger, you definitely have to make sure that you don't just look for a pretty face. Make sure the person you marry also has the brains to match their good looks.”

Hua Lin Yu nodded earnestly. Afterward, his expression impression turned thoughtful though. ”I'm going to marry uncle Xin Lan in the future. Then we're going to be family.”

Jinde stared at him in a daze. ”Xin Lan?” He had overheard before that this child had some kind of relationship with him but he was really wondering how things had developed to this degree. ”Does Xin Lan know that you intend to marry him?”

Hua Lin Yu nodded hurriedly. ”He said I should grow up and then marry him!”

Jinde felt dumbstruck. This Xin Lan … How could he trick an adorable child like this just like that? Did he feel no shame at all?! Well, this one was still very small. Until he grew up, he might've already forgotten about it.

With that thought, Jinde rubbed his head and smiled. ”Well, if you want to marry him, then you should marry him. If you feel different about it until then, you also don't have to. I'm sure Xin Lan would understand.”

Inside the room, Leng Jin Yu glanced at Jinde, his expression a little complicated. Shouldn't Jinde be happy if Xin Lan found somebody else? Then at the very least, he wouldn't need to worry Xin Lan would continue to be hung up over him. Leng Jin Yu didn't say that out loud though and just kept the thought to himself. Anyway, they couldn't force Xin Lan to fall in love with somebody else either. And it would be strange if he found somebody this fast after being in love with Jinde for such a long time.

In the meantime, the person who Qiu Ling had tried to contact answered his call. ”Your Majesty.” Xiang Yong had furrowed his brows and his expression didn't get any happier when he saw Qiu Ling and the room behind him. That place … I did look like it was in the dragon realm but obviously, the king hadn't returned yet. More importantly, there was that ascended deity in the background that had come by the other day to meet Bai Mu. It made him a little worried. That relationship with His Majesty he had spoken of … Just what was it about? He wanted to know but he didn't dare to ask. After all, the king had always kept to himself. Even if he asked him, he likely wouldn't get an explanation.

Qiu Ling just gave a curt nod. ”Xiang Yong, I need you to help me with something.”

”I'm at your service, Your Majesty. Just say the word.”

Next to Qiu Ling, Fei Bai Mu's brows rose. This person … He wasn't just of the dragon race, he also … happened to be the dragon race's king? Just what kind of freak coincidence was this? She really wanted to ask but now was hardly the time.

Qiu Ling gave a happy hum when Zhong Yong was so quick on the uptake. ”I need you to take a look at the treasury and take everything out that can help to nourish a soul.”

Xiang Yong's gaze once again swept to the person behind his king and he couldn't help but question his king this time. ”Your Majesty, this wouldn't have anything to do with that ascended deity Leng behind you, would it?”

Qiu Ling blinked his eyes and looked over his shoulder. ”Him? Why?”
