Chapter 396 - Controlling Luoyang

Looking straight into Ling Xiao's eyes, Old Man Green Bamboo looked for a long time before he lowered his head and sighed heavily.

"I've never seen someone possess such a tyrannical aura at such a young age. This old man admires him, but from the looks of it, there seems to be nothing that this old man can control to chat with the Sect Leader Ling." The Old Man Green Bamboo said with a wry smile.

The Old Man Green Bamboo was very clear that the clans in the Luoyang City coveted his power, and thought that Ling Xiao would respect him because of this, or perhaps fight for even more benefits.

But this time, Old Man Green Bamboo completely understood one thing. That was, in front of Ling Xiao, Old Man Green Bamboo did not have any opportunity to take advantage of him.

Unless Ling Xiao was willing to give it to him, Old Man Green Bamboo would not have any chance.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao smiled faintly: "Old Mr, you should have known about this a long time ago. In front of me, everything is ordinary."

Old Man Green Bamboo let out another long sigh, then raised his head to look at Ling Xiao and said: "But this old man is still of great use to you, right?"

Ling Xiao laughed: "Old Mr is a reasonable person, if you do not have the ability, then you do not have the qualifications to discuss anything with me."

"Alright, I understand. I've already told you my conditions. Now it's your turn. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse." The Old Man Green Bamboo said.

"This is naturally something that Old Mr can easily accomplish." Ling Xiao looked at the Old Man Green Bamboo and leisurely said, "Help the Wang Family become the number one clan within the Luoyang City. As a promise, I will have Hu Chong follow me and obtain even more power."

Hearing that, Old Man Green Bamboo nodded his head and said: "Don't worry, Sect Leader Ling, I will take care of this matter properly."

"It doesn't matter what you want to do. This Seat just wants to see the results." Ling Xiao looked into Old Man Green Bamboo's eyes and said seriously.

This time, Old Man Green Bamboo saw an irresistible dignity in Ling Xiao's eyes. As an extremely experienced person in the Jianghu, it had been a long time since he had seen a gaze that made him feel fear.

"Sect Leader Ling, this old man boasts that he has a keen sense of smell. Normally, he would not have doubted his senses at all. However, facing Sect Leader Ling today, any thought of this old man makes me feel suspicious." Old Man Green Bamboo squinted his eyes and said.

Ling Xiao laughed lightly, and said: "If Old Mr has anything to say, just say it."

"Why does Sect Leader Ling want to help Wang Family? You should have some ideas, right?" The Old Man Green Bamboo asked bluntly.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao nodded his head, and said with a tone full of praise: "Un, as expected of Old Mr, who came from Sun Moon Divine Hall, indeed have a keen sense of smell, yes, I have never been a generous person, there is always a chance for me to return anything, Wang Family wanting me to help them take the first place in Luoyang City, this shows that they are very ambitious, but their line of sight is limited to this, and in my field of vision, it is the entire world, all these people in Luoyang City have sharp eyes, they will never understand my actions."

After the Old Man Green Bamboo heard this, he continuously nodded his head, as if he agreed with Ling Xiao's words.

"Yes, a young hero indeed. It's been a long time since this old man has seen someone with ambition and vision like you." After Old Man Green Bamboo finished listening to Ling Xiao, not only did he not feel that Ling Xiao was too greedy, he felt that this was the only choice that was worthy of respect.

Ling Xiao laughed and said: "What Old Mr has said this time, indeed makes my heart comfortable."

Old Man Green Bamboo stopped smiling and looked at Ling Xiao seriously: "But to be honest, Sect Leader Ling, if you really want to take down Luoyang City, then there is no need to go through Wang Family, this old man can also help you do it."

After Ling Xiao heard this, he shook his head and said: "Old Mr, to be honest, even without you, it would not be difficult for me to take down Luoyang City."

"However, you and I are not people who like being restricted. I know what the Old Mr is thinking, we both like freedom, so naturally we cannot push ourselves to the heart of the struggle, and I do not wish to restrain you either. So, I have decided to let the Wang Family take the lead, we just need to quietly hide behind our backs." Ling Xiao explained.

What I want to do is for the Luoyang City to be controlled by me, regardless of whether the person is here or not. It just so happens that the Patriarch of Wang Family likes to be the leader of this group. Ling Xiao revealed a enigmatic smile.

Listening to Ling Xiao's analysis. The spirit and wisdom that he was displaying was far from what a person like him could compare to. On the surface, the Old Man Green Bamboo did not reveal too many changes in his emotions, but his heart was already feeling uneasy. He thought, could it be that there really is a master in this world?

"Alright, I have said everything that I need to say. Leave the rest to Old Mr." Seeing that Old Man Green Bamboo did not answer, Ling Xiao knew that his heart was probably in complete chaos. He did not wait any longer, and after greeting Old Man Green Bamboo, he left.

After leaving Old Man Green Bamboo sitting there by himself, Old Man Green Bamboo felt something on his face and subconsciously raised his hand to wipe it away. It was only then that he realized that it was his own uncontrollable cold sweat that he had left behind.

After Ling Xiao left, the door opened, allowing Hu Chong to walk in with the teapot.

"Master, did he leave?" Hu Chong asked curiously when he saw that Old Man Green Bamboo was the only one left in the room.

Old Man Green Bamboo numbly nodded his head and said: "En, let's go."

It was only then that Hu Chong noticed that Old Man Green Bamboo's face was slightly pale, as if he had received a fright. He hurriedly found a towel and gave it to Old Man Green Bamboo to wipe away.

"Master, what's wrong?" Hu Chong asked somewhat anxiously.

Old Man Green Bamboo took a few deep breaths, then he shook his head and said: "Disciple, master is fine, I just can't calm down for a while."

When Hu Chong saw that Old Man Green Bamboo's complexion had improved, he heaved a sigh of relief. He then asked curiously: "Master, what did Sect Leader Ling say just now?"

"Master doesn't know if we're lucky or not, but in the future, an extremely terrifying upheaval will definitely occur in the entire Jianghu, and the only person who will cause this upheaval, is only one person. The entire Jianghu doesn't even know this yet, but we found out first, so who do you think we should choose?"

For a while, Hu Chong did not understand what the Old Man Green Bamboo meant. He thought that the Old Man Green Bamboo had given him a question, so he scratched his head and started to think.
