Chapter 821: Chapter 67 Someone Brings a Pillow When You’re Drowsy (Please Subscribe)_2

“To possess such skills, to create your own warfare strategies, and to remain patient and hidden, only revealing your sharpness now.”

He smirked, “A talent indeed, such a person is capable of great deeds and has the makings of a conqueror.”

“As you say, Father,” Ying Jun responded gravely.

Although he had previously mocked and targeted Qing Ge in various ways, now that Qing Ge had shown his abilities, Ying Jun had completely put away his disdain and contempt.

He no longer considered himself qualified to look down on someone destined for remarkable achievements.

Even if he was of mixed blood.

“No more hesitation, just go and talk to him about collaboration. Investing in him now, when he’s just beginning to rise, will yield the greatest benefits,” Ying Lie decided resolutely.

In professional terms, “original equity” is always the most valuable.

“Understood, Father,” Ying Jun replied respectfully.

To achieve great things, one must first be decisive, never hesitant.

This was Ying Lie’s maxim, and it was also a belief shared by Ying Jun.

….

The room was very quiet, Lu Qingshan sat by the table, deep in thought.

“The reputation has been initially promoted, but it’s still not enough,” he murmured to himself.

To get in touch with the Demonic Sword and have a chance of controlling it, he first had to solidify his reputation as a genius.

This was a necessary groundwork.

Not to mention whether he could pass the test of the Warfare Stele or not.

A son-in-law, a mixed blood despised by everyone, even if he really got in touch with and controlled the Demonic Sword, the Royal Family wouldn’t be pleased.

On the contrary, they would immediately reclaim the Demonic Sword with a tough stance– even if I can’t use it myself, I won’t let it be cheap for you.

So he needed immense fame and some people who could stand by his side and speak for him at critical moments.

This could only be achieved through his own efforts.

Given his current situation, the only path he could take was that of the chosen ones.

To catch fish, you must first bait it.

This is also why he displayed such a flamboyant posture.

He had to use this kind of attention-grabbing approach to show his value.

But what he didn’t expect was that the first fish to take the bait would be…

The Demon Lord Hong Lie!

Beside him was a message from the Demon Lord Hong Lie:

Ying Jun invited him to go together to the Blood Divine Ridge.

The Blood Divine Ridge was where Shi Wu’s Blood Divine Sand Vein was located, far from Jian Luo King City.

The message meant that after his marriage with Ying Mingyue, the Blood Divine Sand Vein would be transferred to his hands.

So he wanted to bring “Qing Ge” to familiarize himself with the vein’s situation first.

It seemed like a reasonable explanation.

However, things were definitely not as simple as they appeared.

Was this an ill-intentioned approach, or was it…

Lu Qingshan pondered.

It seemed unlikely that it was ill-intentioned.

If the Demon Lord Hong Lie really wanted to harm him, he would do it covertly, not so openly.

So, it should be a good thing, right?

Then let’s agree to it.

Let’s see what the Demon Lord Hong Lie is really planning!

Lu Qingshan resolutely made the decision.

At this point, even though he had always been cautious, his courage had grown.

The two seemed contradictory, but they were reasonable.

First of all, if his identity were to be exposed, it would be a total disaster.

So he had to be extremely careful.

However, what he wanted to do was a massive affair that required prompt action, with no delays allowed.

If he didn’t take bigger steps and act boldly, how could he achieve anything?

Therefore, he placed himself in the spotlight within days of arriving in Jian Luo King City.

…..

The next day.

A pureblood from the Spirit King Mansion issued a declaration to Lu Qingshan.

“Qing Ge, your recent commotion has been quite significant, it looks somewhat interesting,”

“In that case, I, Ling Wu, will reluctantly make a move. Such a good sparring partner is too good to miss.”

The pureblood of the Spirit King Mansion, Ling Wu, said this.

He spoke calmly, but his attitude was extremely domineering.

In his opinion, Qing Ge was merely a sparring partner to him, nothing significant at all!

However, not many people thought Ling Wu was arrogant.

Because, he was indeed incredibly powerful!

“Has Ling Wu personally made a move?”

In the Feng King Mansion, the injured but now fully recovered Feng Tianming was deeply touched upon hearing the news.

His expression slightly changed.

“Although Ling Wu and Feng Tianming of the Feng King Mansion are both high-level Demon Generals, in terms of strength, Ling Wu surpasses Feng Tianming by far. This time, it’s hard to say.”

“Indeed, Ling Wu may not be the strongest among the high-level Demon Generals, but he is definitely one of the most outstanding.”

“If Qing Ge can still win, then those true chosen ones at the peak of Demon General level may have to step forward!” Many people discussed this way.

In the Royal City, the relative strength of each family’s pureblood chosen ones had no specific ranking, but the general divisions in strength were widely acknowledged, creating several tiers.

Feng Tianming, although listed in the second echelon of the Royal City’s chosen ones,

his strength was merely at the lower end of the second tier.

Ling Wu, however, was one of the strongest in the second tier.

The gap between them was evident.

If even Ling Wu were to lose, as everyone said, only those invincible first-tier chosen ones could defeat Qing Ge.

Would Qing Ge continue the legend, or would Ling Wu restore the reputation of the Royal City?

The people of the Royal City were eagerly anticipating.

However, they were destined to be disappointed.
