Chapter 409 Rejection
"What about the conditions?"

A simple question instantly changed the atmosphere to an extremely subtle one.

Ling Yuling's long hair was loose, and a pair of slender phoenix eyebrows drooped down, as if disappointed or relieved.

"The conditions... are complicated."

Ling Yuling sighed softly, raised her head, and looked into Lu Yunze's eyes.

"First of all, you have to take on the responsibility of being a member of the Star Palace, and in the upcoming war, make contributions that are sufficient to assume the status of a disciple of the Twin Saints."

"It doesn't sound too much." Lu Yunze touched his chin and nodded, motioning for Ling Yuling to continue.

"Secondly, the two sages of Xinggong will personally guide your cultivation and provide you with all the resources you need in the cultivation process. But correspondingly, you also need to obey their orders."

"Acceptable, what else?"

"And..." Ling Yuling took a deep breath and didn't speak for a while.

The wind blew up the clothes and long hair, passing through the close distance where the two looked at each other, and finally let out a mournful cry.

The two looked at each other, they both knew what Ling Yuling would say next, but they also understood that this sentence must be said by Ling Yuling himself.

"Also, in order to guarantee your loyalty, the Star Palace Twin Saints will impose a restriction on you. The validity period of this restriction will last until the arrival of the Dual Saints' deadline. When the Dual Saints return to heaven, the restriction will naturally disappear, and you will also become The new Lord of the Star Palace."

Under the moonlight, Ling Yuling raised her head, her celestial and beautiful face was coated with a layer of silvery white light, like the fairy Chang'e who only appears in the world of dreams.

"How? Promise?" She asked with a smile.

Lu Yunze closed his eyes, rubbed the center of his eyebrows, and sighed helplessly.

"Your father thinks so beautifully." Lu Yunze said sincerely.

Long before Ling Yuling opened his mouth, Lu Yunze had roughly guessed what kind of conditions the Star Palace Sages would put forward.

Of course, this is not because he peeped into the timeline, or placed eyeliner next to the Xinggong Shuangsheng or other outrageous reasons.It is just a reasonable inference based on the actual situation.

Accepting himself as a disciple, using the position of the future Lord of the Star Palace as a bargaining chip, tied Lu Yunze to death in the Star Palace... no, it should be tied to Ling Yuling's side.

The purpose is easy to see, but the problem is what happens afterward.

Now, Lu Yunze is in the middle stage of alchemy, and Ling Yuling is in the early stage of alchemy.The cultivation bases of the two are almost the same, and it is difficult to distinguish between the top and bottom in terms of aptitude.

In this case, if they also accept the unconditional resource tilt and guidance of the two sages of Xinggong, will the progress and final achievement of the two people be the same?
How is this possible? !

Anyone with eyes can tell that Lu Yunze will only be far ahead of Ling Yuling whether it is the speed of cultivation or future achievements.

As time goes on, the gap between the two will only grow wider.

With Lu Yunze's talent and intelligence, combined with the huge resources and background of Xinggong, the future achievements are almost limitless. It is not impossible to touch the realm above the Nascent Soul.

In this process, Xinggong and Ling Yuling will inevitably become Lu Yunze's vassals, and this process will not even depend on the will of anyone including Lu Yunze.

In this world where all kinds of great power belong to oneself, the power and benefits will flow to the person with the highest cultivation and the strongest strength.

In the same realm, it may still be possible to use power to mediate reluctantly, but once the gap in cultivation continues to widen, the flow of power and resources cannot be changed by anyone.

Even the strongest with vested interests are powerless to change this rule.

In Lu Yunze's point of view, this so-called strongest person is just the spokesperson of the entire spiritual power cultivation system, a tool embodied by this set of rules.

Their power to change everything comes from this system, and their existence is to stand for this system.

That being the case, what can they do but obey?

And this is exactly what Lu Yunze wants to avoid no matter what, he wants freedom and fairness, instead of trying to be a slave in the eyes of his master, or a master in the eyes of a slave.

He has had problems with his legs and feet for a long time, and he can't kneel down!

And this ideal of wanting to stand up itself is not understood by the world.

Of course, the two saints of Xinggong couldn't understand it either.

They will not allow the star palace surnamed Ling to become the star palace surnamed Lu after hundreds of years.If this kind of thing really happened, what's the point of what they did today?
That being the case, this requirement is logical.

In their view, with a buffer of one or two hundred years, it should be enough for Lu Yunze to be exhausted in the war, while Ling Yuling can catch up.And when the day when their deadline comes, whether this restriction will disappear or not is still an uncertain thing.

As for whether Lu Yunze can see through this level, perhaps in the hearts of the Xinggong Sages, this is a matter of indifference.

The prosperity of the world is all for profit.The world is full of hustle and bustle, all come for the name.

It's easy to see through one thing, but how many people can get rid of the two words of fame and fortune.

With the entire star palace as bait, who can have such perseverance to refuse?
And Lu Yunze's answer...

"Brother Lu, will you agree?" Ling Yuling asked with a smile.

Lu Yunze raised his head, as if he suddenly became interested in the moon above his head.

"Brother Lu, are you willing to agree?" Ling Yuling smiled and stepped forward, almost touching Lu Yunze's body.

Still raising his head, Lu Yunze said perfunctorily, "Don't you understand everything? Why are you asking me?"

"Brother Lu..." Ling Yuling held Lu Yunze's head in both hands, abruptly turned his gaze away, and looked at Lu Yunze with a smile. "Will you agree?"

This smile made Han Li, who was watching aside, feel chills in some juniors.

The corners of Lu Yunze's mouth twitched, his lips first moved down, and then quickly lifted up.

"I... refuse." Lu Yunze swallowed, and said awkwardly.

He knew that Ling Yuling was taking revenge on him for forcing her to reveal the conditions of the two saints just now. Although Lu Yunze thought it was reasonable, this reason also told him, don't try to reason with a woman at this time, otherwise it will help not him.

So, Lu Yunze showed a pitiful expression very cooperatively, and then was pushed aside by Ling Yuling's disgust.

"Well, I already knew." Ling Yuling sighed softly, as if Lu Yunze's answer really hurt her heart.But the slightly raised arc of the corner of her mouth revealed the fact that she was in a good mood at the moment.

Why are you in a good mood?This is probably because, among all her beautiful dreams, she will never include a future where she and her future partner will intrigue and compete for power and profit.

Men tend to favor logical drama, while women prefer dreamy romance.

so……

"Your father thinks so beautifully." Lu Yunze said so.
