《The Glory After Rebirth》C24. Ling Family Is Indomitable
Advertisement
Jia Yin woke up trembling. But later when being informed that his son was sentenced to exile and Zhang Chong also cut off the relationship with his son, he got so angry that he nearly fainted again. His son dared to tease his favorite beauty! It was such a slap on his face!
If Jia Yuanling wasn’t sentenced, Jia Yin would beat the crap out of him!
However, as soon as he was informed that Jia Yuanling would be sentenced to twenty years in exile, Jia Yin felt his heart was scooped out alive, angry and aching.
“Master, that dancer is...awake.” The steward of Jia Family said carefully while wiping the sweat.
Jia Yin’s eyes became cold as he snapped, “Kill that bitch!”
“I have locked her in the store room. Later, I will give her a bowel of poison and let her die in agony.” The steward said cruelly.
“Scratch her face and cut off her hands before she dies!”
Jia Yin struggled to sit up and then leaned heavily on the bed head with a dark face. He looked at the steward, malevolence in his eyes, “Just let her know what is living death!”
“Yes, I will do as you told, my master.” The steward replied him immediately.
“Where is my wife?”
“She just had the herbal concoction the doctor prescribed. And the doctor said she would wake up at dusk.”
Jia Yin didn’t care about his wife at all. On the contrary, he even detested her, “Ling’er was spoiled by this useless woman.”
The steward dared not to answer his words.
“Where is the Second Master? Do you call him back?”
“I have sent someone to pick up the Second Master. It estimates that he will be back by midnight.”

“How about the Mine field. Is it affected?”
“It’s fine and everything goes well. Yamen didn’t take any action to the Mine field.” Looking at Jia Yin, the steward continued, “Commander Zhang didn’t come out after returning to the Prefecture Encampment.”
Jia Yin’s face became darker when Zhang Chong was mentioned. Then he said angrily, “We gave him so much money and treasure, even selling him all the production of Mine field secretly. What’s more, I asked my son to regard him as godfather, why didn’t he save Ling’er?!”
“This......at that time, due to the public outcry, Commander Zhang was also framed to defy the law and revolt by that bastard of Ling Family. Tongpan even began to doubt Commander Zhang. Moreover, young master......admitted his guilt himself.”
Jia Yin tossed the teacup away on the table beside the bed suddenly, smashing it into pieces. Jia Yin fumed, “Useless crap!”
“How about Ling Family?”
“They went back. I heard Ling Xingzhong came back.”
“Just in time, they dared to bully our family. Then they should take the consequences!”
“Master,” the steward said carefully, “I think the priority now is to sound about Commander Zhang’s intention. We can’t lose Commander Zhang’s support.”
Jia Yin kept silent for a while with anger suppressed in his heart. Then he said, “Let the Second Master meet me the moment he comes back.”
“Yes, Master,” the steward replied.
......
As Ling Zhang recounted the whole thing, silence and anger reigned the hall of Ling Family.
Frightened by the depressing atmosphere, Ling Maomao curled himself in Ling Zhang’s arms.
“Bang!” Ling Xingzhong thumped so hard on the table that it caused the cups on the table to vibrate. He was so infuriated, “How dare such a vulgar, filthy thing plant a scheme against Ling Family?”

“Father, now the top priority is to take preventive measures, in case Zhang Chong launches any dirty attacks,” Ling Zhaowen said.
“Our Ling Family is indomitable. We have no guilty either to the king or the ancestry. Will we be afraid of that boor?” Ling Xingzhong thundered.
Ling Zhaowen was rendered a bit speechless. He thought his father had such a bad temper and was not tactful enough compared with his nephew. In the past his nephew was also quick-tempered just like his father. And there was a time when he always worried that his nephew would be bullied for his gaucheness. Fortunately, his nephew had changed, albeit in a painful way.
Ling Zhang didn’t notice Ling Zhaowen’s emotion. He knew his grandfather well. What he thought now was that since his grandfather had come back, should he mention about the thing of breaking off the engagement now?
The author has something to say:
Ling Zhang: I think it’s time to bring up the engagement breaking.
Yuwen Tong: What? Though I don’t know about the engagement, there is no way that you can break it, my dear. I’m Afraid It’s Too Late.

Dungeon Devotee
Through all of Linaria, no dungeon holds such a grip on the dreams of men as the Eternal Depths. Hundreds throw themselves against its trials each day. Dozens survive, walking away with power and wealth beyond their wildest dreams… until they go back for more. One way or another, they all eventually feed the Depths. Edmund Montgomery Ahab has sworn to destroy it. Underleveled, undertrained, and underprepared, Edmund steps into the maw of the world’s greatest predator, a sword in his hand and vengeance on his mind. At first his task seems impossible, but with every level he earns, every piece of loot that drops, every secret he uncovers, and especially every bit of power he can squeeze from his mysterious connection to the Aspect of Madness, Edmund crawls closer to accomplishing that insurmountable feat. With nothing else to lose, Edmund has already given the Depths his life. All that remains to be seen is whether he takes the dungeon’s right back. Dungeon Devotee is an episodic serial. It will never be taken down for KU. Each chapter details a single floor of Edmund’s journey through the vast Eternal Depths, with all the levels and loot and lack of cliffhangers that entails. New chapters come out on the first of each month.
8 109Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel (An Irreverent Fanfiction)
Fates Parallel is a gripping cultivation story, following the adventures of a half-spirit girl with nothing as she grows both as a cultivator and as a person after arriving at the Grand Academy of Spiritual, Martial and Arcane Arts. It features fleshed-out, believable characters, wonderful world-building that informs the course of the plot, and girls who hold hands. Fates Parallel is a very good story, and you should read it! Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel is a somewhat tongue-in-cheek look at this same world from a different angle, following a totally regular girl who brings bad luck with her wherever she goes. It features shallow, joke-name characters, a focus on the least interesting parts of a fantastic world, and girls who hold hands (potentially). Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel is an amazingly hilarious (so says me) fanfiction and you should read it! (This is a Totally Author Approved Spin-Off (Fanfiction) for Fates Parallel, which you can find in a number of places including here on RoyalRoad! Please do read it!)

8 120The Fall of The Gods
Synopsis: In the year 1966, an army of Orishas led by Sango stormed Amadioha’s palace and razed it the ground, starting a decades-long war between two of Nigeria’s most powerful divine orders. Blinded by the rage of battle, the gods did not detect the rise of a third power, far greater and deadlier than anything they could have imagined. When gods, on both the Yoruba and Igbo sides, begin falling mysteriously to their death, Sango seeks the help of Odion, a Lagos teenager destined to rise from his dark past to become a hero. But can a human hero save the gods from a doomed fate? The Fall of the Gods is an action-packed YA fantasy based on the mythical bond that ties human life with the realm of the divine. It demonstrates the power of stories to change our lives. It also reminds us that Sango and Amadioha are not relics of the past and that, sometimes, what it means to be a hero in today’s world is knowing how to find inspiration in the stories of the gods. PLEASE NOTE: Weekly chapters will be released every friday along with interludes once in a while about Nigerian mythology. I'm a young 17 year old writer and I am new to the site so I will appreciate your comments and reviews. Thank you very much.
