Chapter 2209 Receiving It (2)
Moreover, if others could be like Leng ruoxue and contract spiritual beasts without a limit, they would definitely keep these spiritual beasts in their hands! Hence, the people of the underground city were grateful for Leng ruoxue"s actions!
Furthermore, Leng ruoxue had saved the buried city"s people. They would not be as ungrateful as yaoji. Hence, Leng ruoxue"s status in the buried city had never been higher! Even those who had previously been influenced by some people and had some opinions about Leng ruoxue, after this incident, their grat.i.tude towards Leng ruoxue had risen to an unprecedented level.
And this time, they came with the expectations of the buried city"s people.
But now, Dongfang Yue felt that he might not be able to complete the task.
"You"ve already thanked me. If there"s nothing else, you can go back." As expected, Leng ruoxue asked him to leave. The moment she said that, Dongfang Yue"s face turned pale.
Dongfang Lin couldn"t help but cover his face when he saw Dongfang Yue"s performance. His big brother"s performance was too embarra.s.sing, wasn"t it?
You could have said that you had other things to do! He couldn"t really be prepared to leave just like that, right? Dongfang Lin"s heart was burning with anxiety when he saw that his big brother was not saying anything and was only looking at Leng ruoxue with hidden bitterness!
However, he couldn"t interfere in this matter. He could only watch as Leng ruoxue tortured his big brother. Otherwise, he would be the one being tortured.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the door.
A little Purple Fox pushed the door open and entered.
"Lovely master, there"s a group of people outside. They say they"re here to see you." Baby jumped into Leng ruoxue"s arms and reported.
"Eh? Let"s go out and take a look!" Leng ruoxue glanced at Dongfang Yue and said indifferently.
Then, she walked out of the living room first, followed by uncle long and the others.
Outside the courtyard.
There were at least a few hundred people gathered.
When Qin Dong, who was Leng ruoxue"s guard, saw Leng ruoxue and the rest coming out, he immediately reported to her with a troubled expression,""Miss, they"re all from the underground city."
"You guys want to see me?" After hearing Qin Dong"s words, Leng ruoxue squinted her beautiful eyes and asked with a face full of question marks.
"Miss Leng, please make us stay!" Someone took the lead and said. After that, hundreds of people knelt down in front of Leng ruoxue.
"What are you guys doing?" Leng ruoxue raised her brows and asked as she looked at Dongfang Yue and Dongfang Lin.
Dongfang Lin sent an innocent emoji back to Leng ruoxue, indicating that he had no idea either. Dongfang Yue, on the other hand, was completely lost.
"Miss Leng has done us a great favor, and we also admire miss Leng"s valiant strength very much. Therefore, we want to recognize miss Leng as our master, and we beg miss Leng to take us in!" The leader shouted.
"Who allowed you to come here and say such things?" After hearing this person"s words, Leng ruoxue deliberately revealed an unhappy expression.
"No one, we did it on our own!" The man quickly said.
"What a spontaneous move! If I don"t accept you, are you going to keep kneeling?" Leng ruoxue laughed coldly, her expression turning icy cold.
"This ..." The leader didn"t dare to answer casually. If he answered "yes", the other party would definitely think that they were threatening her. Even though they hadn"t spent much time with Leng ruoxue, they more or less understood Leng ruoxue"s style of doing things. Hence, at this moment, the leader started to regret his words.
Sob ... Did I overreach myself?
"Miss Leng, if you don"t like us kneeling, we can get up immediately. However, kneeling in front of you is only to express our grat.i.tude to you. We don"t have any other meaning. I hope you don"t misunderstand." At this time, another person said.
The person who spoke was very young. He looked to be in his early twenties. He was a young man with a very delicate appearance and clear eyes.
This youth had a fearless look on his face, and a trace of unswerving determination flashed across his delicate and pretty face. His tightly clenched fists revealed the nervousness in his heart. Although the gaze he used to look at Leng ruoxue was very firm, but after a long time, when his eyes met Leng ruoxue "s, he could not hold on any longer, and cold sweat slowly formed on his forehead.
But the next moment, the young man spoke again,""Miss Leng, my family has all fallen in this incident. If it wasn"t for you, who led the city Lord and the others to turn the tide, I wouldn"t be alive now. From the moment I was alive, my only wish was to avenge my family. Only by following you will we have the chance to take revenge!"
"Although I"m still very weak now, I believe that one day, I will be able to become your right-hand man. Please give me a chance!" The young man continued.
After he finished speaking, he became even more determined and bravely met Leng ruoxue"s eyes. Actually, what he had just said was only a part of his thoughts. There was another part that he did not say. Leng ruoxue had already become his idol, a G.o.d-like existence in his heart. So, even if he did not take revenge, he wanted to stay by Leng ruoxue"s side. However, he knew very well that at this moment, nothing could move people more than revenge! He could only bury the other reason deep in his heart.
The young man thought that he could hide his thoughts from Leng ruoxue, but he didn"t know that as long as Leng ruoxue wanted to know what these people were thinking, it was impossible to hide it.
"What"s your name?" Leng ruoxue suddenly asked. This young man was quite smart.
"I"m Shen Jing!" The young man quickly replied.
"This little fellow will follow you from now on!" Leng ruoxue glanced at Dongfang Lin and said indifferently.
"Alright!" Dongfang Lin nodded, but Shen Jing, who was kneeling at the side, was a little confused. W-what did this mean? Did he succeed or not?
"You can all go back! Don"t kneel here. " Dongfang Lin spoke again.
When the kneeling crowd heard this, they could only stand up resentfully. Then, they turned back every three steps and left Leng ruoxue"s courtyard door with great reluctance.
After they left, Leng ruoxue and the rest returned to the living room.
The moment they entered the living room and Leng ruoxue sat down, Dongfang Yue knelt down in front of her with a loud thump. Uncle Lian and the others also knelt down upon seeing this.
"What are you guys doing?" Leng ruoxue furrowed her brows and said unhappily. These people couldn"t possibly think that kneeling would be of any use, right?
"Miss Leng, I, Dongfang Yue, am willing to represent everyone in the underground city and serve you as my master. I hope that miss Leng will not decline." Dongfang Yue mustered up his courage and said.
"I said, you don"t have to do this!" Leng ruoxue said indifferently.
"Miss Leng, our greatest wish is to avenge master Yu. Not only is miss Leng master Yu"s disciple, but your strength has also deeply impressed us. So, from now on, we are willing to follow miss Leng. I hope miss Leng doesn"t despise us!" Dongfang Yue said sincerely.
"Yup! Miss Leng, we were too arrogant in the past, but after this lesson, we have also realized our mistakes. I hope that miss Leng can give us a chance. We are willing to follow miss Leng"s lead. In the future, if miss Leng says one, we will definitely not say two! If miss Leng asks us to go east, we will definitely not go west!" Uncle Lian also said.
