Qin Feng understood Ling Wushang's resentment, as Ling Yunbo had almost ruined the entire Ling family for his own selfish reasons.
How could he, as the highest authority in the Ling family, not hate this? However, Qin Feng had no intention of interfering in these matters.
What Qin Feng wants to do now is to forge a sword that belongs to him.
After this incident, he gained a new understanding of weapons, and the boost to his strength from the Emperor Sword Flying Rainbow was something he had not expected before.
Without the help of the Flying Rainbow Sword, and with Xiao Tian still recovering, he could at best have fought Xiao Tianhuang to a draw, but he wouldn't have been able to force the four of them to retreat.
He couldn't help but raise the Flying Rainbow Sword in his hand to examine it closely, hoping it might give him some inspiration.
The Flying Rainbow Sword trembled slightly as it noticed Qin Feng's gaze, which was its response.
Ling Wushang watched this scene, wanting to say something but holding back.
This precious sword belonged to his Ling family ancestor and was the guardian of the Ling family.
Even though Qin Feng has done the Ling family a great favor, we can't let it follow Qin Feng.
However, Qin Feng had just helped the Ling family avert a calamity, so he felt it was inappropriate to say such things at this time.
Qin Feng noticed Ling Wushang's unusual behavior and immediately understood. He handed the Flying Rainbow Sword to Ling Wushang.
Ling Wushang was taken aback, but still wanted to take it.
However, before the Flying Rainbow Sword could fall into Ling Wushang's hands, it broke free from Qin Feng's grasp and hovered in the air.
Qin Feng and Ling Wushang were both taken aback.
Xiao Tian immediately manifested the Flying Rainbow Sword and said in a somewhat childish voice, "He doesn't use a sword, I don't want to follow him."
Ling Wushang smiled wryly, then exclaimed in surprise, "You don't mean to follow young friend Qin, do you? That won't do."
Xiao Tian shook his head with a very serious expression on his young face.
"No, I will follow Ling Xuan's last wish and protect the Ling family. I will only choose a suitable person from within the Ling family and will not choose anyone else."
However, the younger generation of the Ling family has been too disappointing in recent years. They have been busy with weapon forging and have not produced a single decent swordsmanship talent.
How am I supposed to choose? I am, after all, the Emperor's sword.
Ling Wushang was a little embarrassed. "Well, talent is a tricky thing to say. We can't be sure."
Qin Feng thought for a moment and then interjected:
"Xiao Fei, don't set your sights too high. Even masters start from being ordinary people. Understanding swordsmanship can be accumulated gradually."
If you don't have someone you like, I can introduce you to someone.
Ling Wushang was overjoyed, but at the same time, he realized something.
Xiao Fei looked at Qin Feng with suspicion.
"You're not lying to me, are you? I reviewed all the younger generation of the Ling family a year ago, and there weren't any outstanding talents among them."
Could it be that some swordsmanship genius emerged from my year-long slumber?
Qin Feng chuckled.
"I'm not lying to you, I think there's someone you can consider."
This person is named Ling Hao. He is sixteen years old this year, very young, and has great potential.
He has already grasped the essence of swordsmanship and is absorbing insights into the way of the sword very quickly. I think he's a promising talent and a good candidate.
Upon hearing this, Ling Wushang thought to himself, "As expected, Qin Feng is returning the favor." However, he also thought that Ling Hao was a good kid.
Ling Hao had already accomplished a great feat by bringing Qin Feng back to the Ling family; it would be even better if he could gain the approval of the Flying Rainbow Sword.
Xiao Fei became interested upon hearing this. He knew Qin Feng's swordsmanship skills were no less than his former master Ling Xuan's, and he trusted Qin Feng's judgment.
"Really? Which one?"
Qin Feng smiled slightly and pointed at Ling Hao in the distance, "That's him."
Xiao Fei glanced at it and examined it carefully.
Ling Hao was a little confused by the three pairs of gazes that suddenly fell on him. How did things turn out this way?
Little did he know that an incredible opportunity was about to fall into his lap.
Xiao Fei looked it over for a while and nodded somewhat reluctantly, "It looks so-so now, barely passable."
Qin Feng comforted him, saying, "Wouldn't it make you seem even more amazing if he achieves extraordinary things in the future?"
Xiao Fei thought about it and realized it made sense, so he readily agreed, "Okay, then I'll choose him."
Xiao Fei returned to the Flying Rainbow Sword, transformed into a ray of light, and flew to Ling Hao.
Ling Hao looked at the majestic sword with some confusion.
Xiao Fei's childish voice rang out, "Ling Hao, right? I'll follow you from now on. I hope you won't let me down."
Ling Hao was completely stunned. "What? Follow me? Ah, this?"
He didn't know how to express the excitement of a weapon from the highest level wanting to be his master.
He had witnessed firsthand just how powerful this sword was; it was capable of fighting against Xiao Tianhuang, who was at the peak of the Emperor Realm.
It emerged from the sealing formation within their Ling family ancestral hall, and Ling Hao understood perfectly what that meant.
Now, this precious sword that he had always longed for was saying it wanted to be with him. Happiness came too suddenly, and he couldn't believe it for a moment.
Ling Yuwei, who was standing to the side, reminded him, "Xiao Hao, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and accept the refining."
Ling Hao snapped out of his daze, gripped the Flying Rainbow Sword, and established a connection between the two.
He glanced at Qin Feng subconsciously, his intuition telling him that this matter was related to Qin Feng.
The Ling family members also looked at Ling Hao with envy; who wouldn't want such a precious sword?
They felt that what happened today was absolutely insane.
First came the annihilation of the Ling family, and now the Emperor Sword has chosen Ling Hao, who is at the Golden Core stage. It's all just as unbelievable.
When Ling Wushang saw that the Flying Rainbow Sword had finally chosen its master, he felt both moved and gratified.
After all these years, the Ling family finally has a disciple that it can take a liking to.
Seeing this, Qin Feng smiled brightly. He had done all he could; Ling Hao's future development was now up to his own destiny.
