Chapter 395 - Request for delegation

When Hu Chong saw that Ling Xiao was able to see through Old Man Green Bamboo's thoughts with a glance, he could not help but scratch his head in embarrassment.

"Since I have nothing else to do, I might as well follow you. I would like to see what Old Man Green Bamboo has to say to me." Ling Xiao said with a light laugh.

Hearing that, Hu Chong did not dare speak anymore, afraid that the Master would accidentally tell him everything. One must know that with Ling Xiao's thinking ability, he might even guess everything out clearly.

"Sect Leader Ling, this way." Causing Hu Chong to make a gesture of invitation, he then brought Ling Xiao to Old Man Green Bamboo's residence.

After passing through the dark alley, the two of them stopped in front of the deepest courtyard.

Causing Hu Chong to lightly knock on the courtyard door, not long after, Old Man Green Bamboo walked out.

When he saw Ling Xiao and Linghu Chong arrive, Old Man Green Bamboo was momentarily stunned. Then, a look of uncontrollable joy crossed his face, as he knew that Linghu Chong's injuries had definitely healed.

Thus, the Old Man Green Bamboo hastened his footsteps, opened the courtyard door for the two, and politely said to Ling Xiao: "Sect Leader Ling has worked hard, come in quickly."

"Old Mr, why are you being so courteous?" Seeing that, Ling Xiao could not help but joke.

Old Man Green Bamboo smiled, and without saying a word, he led Ling Xiao directly into the house.

After sitting down, Old Man Green Bamboo started to make tea and pour water.

"Old Mr, shouldn't you first check up on your disciple's injuries?" Seeing that, Ling Xiao could not help but shake his head and laugh, thinking that if this old man was so attentive to him, could it be that he had other requests?

After the Old Man Green Bamboo heard this, he even said that he believed in Ling Xiao. However, he still extended his hand to take a look at Hu Chong's meridians.

After realising that not only did Hu Chong recover from his injuries, but his strength had also increased by a few folds, Old Man Green Bamboo's face was immediately covered in smiles.

"Sect Leader Ling, everything is good now. Thank you so much." Old Man Green Bamboo stroked his beard and laughed.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao said indifferently: "Old Mr doesn't need to thank you. This is what I have promised you; I will naturally think of a way to do so."

"En, even though you said that, the power displayed by Sect Leader Ling is truly admirable. Not only is the matter of healing my disciple good, you have also improved on the < Pure Heart Pure Virtue Curse >. That green bamboo nun has always been worried about you." The Old Man Green Bamboo said.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao smiled indifferently, and said: "Oh? That would be a great honor. "

Old Man Green Bamboo suddenly lowered his body, raised his head and looked at Ling Xiao, and said softly: "Do you know the true identity of that green bamboo aunt?"

Ling Xiao slightly nodded, and said: "Of course I do."

When Old Man Green Bamboo heard this, he did not say anymore. Presumably, he clearly knew what would happen if his identity as Green Bamboo's sister-in-law was revealed.

Because of the previous experience, after knowing Ling Xiao knew the true identity of Green Bamboo Maiden, he was not the least bit surprised. Instead, he nodded slightly at the same time, "Mn, since you already know about it, then this old man will not say anymore.

"Thank you Old Mr for your reminder. I am well aware of it, there is no need for you to worry too much." Ling Xiao cupped his fists and said.

"Alright, the reason why I invited Sect Leader Ling here today is to fulfill this old man's promise." The Old Man Green Bamboo said.

Seeing that Ling Xiao's teacup was empty, Old Man Green Bamboo immediately filled it up with tea. He was very diligent, and compared to his previous attitude, he was like a completely different person.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao naturally knew that there was something else going on in the Old Man Green Bamboo, if not it would not have ended up like this.

"Old Mr, if it's just to fulfill our promise, why don't we go now and visit the Prince Mansion?" Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked.

Hearing that, the Old Man Green Bamboo was startled, but did not reply. He pointed to the teapot on the table and said to Linghu Chong: "There are no more tea-water, go and heat a pot outside."

When Hu Chong heard this, although he understood in his heart that the Old Man Green Bamboo wanted him to hide, and that it was possible for him to discuss matters regarding himself with Ling Xiao, although he was extremely curious and wanted to know, he had no choice but to obediently comply.

After Hu Chong left the stage, the smile on Old Man Green Bamboo's face became even wider, but in Ling Xiao's eyes, it looked like he was deliberately trying to curry favor with Hu Chong.

"Old Mr, if you have something to say, feel free to say it. We are no longer outsiders, right?" Ling Xiao said while tasting the tea-water.

"Sect Leader Ling is right, then this old man will not beat around the bush." The Old Man Green Bamboo coughed lightly twice, then said: "This old man has not seen anything special about this child's injuries for a long time, but now they have been cured by Sect Leader Ling, and have even become stronger, this means that this old man has finished teaching and will have to be taught by Sect Leader Ling."

Ling Xiao did want Old Man Green Bamboo to speak a bit more directly, but he didn't expect Old Man Green Bamboo to speak in such a direct manner. Instead, it caused Ling Xiao to be stunned for a moment.

"Old Mr, you can't be saying that. You want me to teach your disciple for his own good, but how can you be sure that I will agree?" Ling Xiao said in amusement.

When Old Man Green Bamboo heard this, he was actually thick-skinned enough to say: "Sect Leader Ling, aren't we discussing this with you?"

Ling Xiao helplessly rolled his eyes at Old Man Green Bamboo, and said: "Old Mr, what are you discussing here, it's clearly a demand."

"Alright, if this matter makes it difficult for Sect Leader Ling, this old man will prove that it's worth something for him to consider." The Old Man Green Bamboo said.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao became interested, "Oh? So it turns out that Old Mr was prepared for it. Why not tell me about it? "

Seeing that Ling Xiao did not have any intention to be courteous, Old Man Green Bamboo scratched his head in anger. Obviously, he did not expect Ling Xiao to not be courteous at all.

"Since I have already said so, there is no reason for Old Man Green Bamboo to deny it," This old man knows that the bunch of fellows in Luoyang City have been wanting to rope me in, wanting to borrow this old man's identity to use the power of the Sun Moon Divine Hall, but what they did not expect was that this old man had not been participating in Sun Moon Divine Hall's affairs for a long time, if they knew about this, they would not have tried to get close to me like this.

"Un, but the truth is that the Old Mr's position in the Sun Moon Divine Hall is still as distinct as ever, and is not something that can be shaken by ordinary people, right?" Ling Xiao heard and laughed.

Hearing this, Old Man Green Bamboo looked at Ling Xiao in surprise, and did not deny it. "So as long as this old man is willing, I can easily mobilize Sun Moon Divine Hall's power.

"It won't be easy for me. The most important thing is whether I can guarantee that I can use this power." Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a tone that did not allow any disapproval.
