Ning family.
The meeting hall.
The aura lamp emits bright light.
A group of family elders gathered here, but the main seat and the seat to the left of the main seat were empty.
The head of the Ning family is missing, and the head of the clan is missing.
The elders looked gloomy and were in a bad mood, and they discussed government affairs.
"The tide of red flame monsters that besieged Lava Immortal Palace has receded by 60%. In a few days, the red flame monsters around Fire Persimmon City will also begin to recede. By then, the city lord's palace should release the list to provide relief to the people.
, Not to mention clearing away the monsters in the mountains, garrisoning border posts is where we should intervene most."
What Mr. Futang said immediately aroused the approval of most people.
Four days have passed since Ning Zhuo took the initiative to give up the position of palace master to Meng Kui.
In fact, on the day Meng Ke became the palace master, the three Nascent Soul monks joined forces, Zhu Xuanji, Shujun and others counterattacked, killing without any calculation, and directly extinguished the arrogant arrogance of the red flame monster.
The three great Nascent Soul monks are naturally Meng Kui, Meng Hu and Taiqing Palace monks.
The monks of Taiqing Palace used the reason that "one of their disciples was killed by the Zheng family by mistake" and waited for an opportunity to seek Lava Immortal Palace.
After Meng Kui became the palace lord, he took the initiative to show his duties and let Yuanying of the Taiqing Palace immediately understand that his plan failed.
Looking at Meng Hu and Meng Kui, he gritted his teeth angrily: "What a powerful second general of the Meng family."
Meng Hu's eyes were focused, and his attention was focused more on the lifeless shield in the hands of Yuanying in the Taiqing Palace. This Night Rain Demon Weapon was really strong. He fought hard for a long time, but there was no hope of breaking the shield. Instead, he was injured in return.
, scarred, and the power of any defensive means has been weakened.
Meng Kui smiled and said that he would not let Yuanying of Taiqing Palace go in vain, he would hand over the entire Zheng family!
This surprised Yuanying of the Taiqing Palace. After detailed inquiries, he found out that the only two Jindan ancestors of the Zheng family had fallen. Backbones like Zheng Hua and younger geniuses like Zheng Jian had all
Life was lost.
He immediately understood the reason why Meng Kui was able to entrust the Zheng family to his family.
Without the strength to protect themselves, the Zheng family is just a pawn that can be sacrificed at will!
After the Yuanying monk from Taiqing Palace learned the details, his attitude softened: "I need the corpse of the Zheng family's double golden elixir."
Meng Kui nodded and said meaningfully: "Zheng Danjian can give it to you, but Zheng Shuangou has been killed by the demon cultivator, and the whereabouts of his body are unknown."
Yuanying of the Taiqing Palace said: "It's not enough to have Zheng Shanjian's body alone!"
Meng Kui sneered: "Don't worry, after we kill those two demon cultivators and snatch Zheng Shuangou's body back, we can satisfy your needs."
The ones who killed Zheng Shuanggou were the two Jindan from Taiqing Palace, but they were just disguised as black shadow demon cultivators.
The momentum of the Yuanying monks in the Taiqing Palace stagnated, so he could only take a step back, soften his attitude, and discuss with Meng Kui Chuanyin.
He really needs the prisoners of the Zheng family and brings them back to the sect. If he doesn't cooperate with Meng Kui, Zheng Danqian's body will not be obtained. He will also be expelled by the two Nascent Soul monks of the Meng family, which makes him look very unsightly.
.
After the two reached an agreement, Zhu Xuanji also flew into the sky to express his sincerity for cooperation on behalf of the Nandou royal family. If the Yuanying monks from the Taiqing Palace can help, they will regard it as a great achievement and receive generous rewards from the Nandou Kingdom.
Just like that, the two sides who had been fighting fiercely just now stopped and made peace. The Yuanying monks from the Taiqing Palace, Meng Kui and Meng Hu took action together, sweeping the battlefield and killing the red flame monsters with their corpses everywhere.
The three great Nascent Souls among the red flame monsters were either dead or injured. The Flame-Stepping Lizard held the hole in its head and fled in embarrassment.
The fire-walking snake was blinded and imprisoned.
The demon ape fell into a coma.
The red flame demonic beasts suffered heavy casualties, but the beasts lacked wisdom and were aroused by death and blood with boundless ferocity, and they still charged and killed them endlessly.
The three Nascent Souls first easily conquered the lost territory, then counterattacked into the magma, and fought until they reached the depths of the Fire Persimmon Mountain. They killed each other until they were a little weak, and then they stopped.
During this period, another Nascent Soul-level red flame monster was enraged and fought with the San Yuanying monk, but was seriously injured and retreated.
Meng Hu chased him all the way, and when he saw the monster deep into the boundless fire poison and earth fire, he returned angrily.
Without the support of the monster king with Nascent Soul level combat power, the elite Jindan level monsters would naturally suffer heavy losses.
However, the Nascent Soul cultivators frequently took action, and the tide of red flame monsters continued. It was not until the third day that the number of red flame monsters emerging from the top of the Huoshu Mountain decreased significantly.
"There were a lot of killings this time, and I am guilty of this. After returning to the palace, I will fast for seven days and seven nights, and bathe in the pure air, so that I can wash away the killings and blood." The Yuanying monk of the Taiqing Palace sighed and stopped taking action.
Meng Kui also immediately stopped.
Only Meng Hu attacked in all directions, and when the battle was in full swing, he roared to the sky, and his roar stirred up the wind and clouds, covering the entire Fire Persimmon Mountain.
The tide of red flame beasts was suppressed by the three Yuanying monks!
The elders of the Ning family continued to discuss many household chores.
Count the losses, repair the clan's defensive array, and strictly distribute pensions...
Finally, they finally had to talk about a topic. But this topic was something that no one in the hall wanted to face.
"Ning Zhuo is our real threat! This time, he wants to publicly sacrifice the members of the Ning family who died in the war. Are we really not going to stop him?" It was Ning Qingqing who took the initiative.
He has the talent of Frost Falling Silently and the foundation of cultivation. Originally, he was not qualified to discuss matters. But when the monster attacked the city, not only the leader of the Ning family died in the battle, but also the elders of the family died.
There was a vacancy at the top of the family, so Ning Qingqian was promoted and became a new face in the council hall.
All the elders fell silent.
The elder of the school family sighed quietly: "The only important affairs of the country are military service and sacrifice. The same is true for the family."
Ning Qingqing immediately added: "This time, if Ning Zhuo is really allowed to preside over the public sacrifice, the hearts of the people in our clan will probably turn to him. Between this increase and decrease, how can we compete with the branch family in the future?"
All the family elders frowned.
It's not that they don't have a big picture view, but they are all familiar with government affairs and know the situation at hand very well: the main family and the branch families are like a pry bar supported in the middle because of their blood relationship. One end is high and the other is low.
Either the east wind suppresses the west wind, or the west wind suppresses the east wind. The suppressed party will continue to be sucked by the dominant party, the weak party will become weaker, and the strong party will become stronger and stronger.
Old Tanshou of the Zhantang family said: "Ning Zhuo has become the head of the branch family. This matter has even been approved by our ancestors. It is irreversible."
"Although he is only a minor cultivator in the middle level of Qi Refining, his status is high enough and he can publicly host sacrifices without any problem. How can we stop him?"
Everyone was silent for a while.
"Ning Zhuo, alas...who could have expected that such a freak would appear in our branch?"
"A few months ago, I would never have thought that my huge Ning family would be split into two because of a small sixteen-year-old descendant!"
"Hmph, how could it be possible if Lava Fairy Palace hadn't been born?"
Seeing that all the elders were acting superficially, Ning Qingqian felt anxious: "Huh, in my opinion, we can't stop it from the front, so we will implement some secret methods. If Ning Zhuo's sacrifice fails, or the scene is ugly, he will definitely be attacked.
The prestige will help us gain some advantages for the main line of the Ning family."
puff.
Just as Ning Qingqing finished speaking, her expression suddenly changed drastically, she spat out a mouthful of blood, fell down from her seat, and knelt on the ground.
The elders were shocked and wanted to get up, but were suppressed in their seats by the endless pressure.
As the head of the Ning family, Ning Yifan suddenly appeared.
He swept the whole audience coldly and scolded: "We are all descendants of the Ning family, but you actually want to fight with each other? How can such a character make the family prosperous!?"
"Ancestor!" The elders of the family shouted one after another to excuse themselves, and some even did not forget to clarify the relationship, saying that this was Ning Qingqing's personal opinion and did not represent theirs.
When Ning Qingqing heard these remarks, she was so angry that she spat out a mouthful of blood.
Ning Jiufan criticized everyone, and finally looked at Ning Qingqing, directly depriving him of his status as an elder, and letting him sit in front of the wall for three years to reflect deeply.
Ning surrendered and left directly after handling the matter.
Only then did all the elders regain their ability to move, and they were all sweating profusely, as if they had been reborn.
Looking at Ning Qingqian, they felt contempt in their hearts. Being an elder is not just about having fighting skills, but also having brains.
I can't help but feel the sadness of the rabbit dying and the fox dying.
Ning Qingqing is talented, and that's it. Elders like them, without talent, will definitely end up worse than Ning Qingqing if they want to deal with Ning Zhuo!
"I agree with Ning Zhuo presiding over the sacrifice. There is nothing wrong with it."
"Yes, he is the genius of our clan. It is great for such an outstanding junior to step forward and take on the responsibilities bravely."
"This is a sign that our Ning family is prosperous. I think we should help him on the day of his sacrifice."
"agree."
"I agree."
"Second."
Ning Qingqian was so angry that her eyes turned black when she saw the elders behaving like this.
"My ancestors are partial!" he wailed and fainted on the spot.
The other elders in the family strongly agreed with Ning Qingqing's sadness, but they seemed not to have heard it at all.
Ning Fan sighed quietly.
Although he left, his consciousness still enveloped the meeting hall.
If the elders of the Ning family knew the truth about Lava Immortal Palace, they would definitely understand Ning Yifan deeply.
Ning Zhuo's fighting prowess at the end shocked Ning Yifan!
The Buddhist doctor Meng Yaoyin who can defeat Zhu Xuanji head-on.
The Butterfly Girl who can cast a quasi-golden elixir level magic circle.
Heavy-armed Blood Ape·Da Sheng, Nether Envoy·Qi Bai and Weather Ball·Ice Crystal Snow.
With these mechanical creations around him, who would dare to regard Ning Zhuo as just a minor cultivator in the middle level of Qi refining stage?
Such a powerful combat power has already surpassed him. He would rather give in, okay!
When Ning Zhuo faced Zhu Xuanji and Meng Kui, he showed his skill, which made Ning Yifan look at him with new eyes and take him seriously.
He regretted in his heart that he had not discovered Ning Zhuo's excellence in advance and had won over him too late.
He was secretly glad that Ning Zhuo took the initiative to separate the family and did not stay to bring trouble to the main line. According to his righteous methods, strategies and terrifying combat power, who could be his opponent in the main line?
Didn't you see that the Ning family's patriarch and young patriarch all died in front of him?
Ning Junfan publicly supported Ning Zhuo and supported him vigorously. In fact, it was to protect the main line of the Ning family. After all, he had promised to protect these descendants.
Ning Jingyi dealt with Ning Qingqian in the hope that the latter could completely recognize the reality, practice hard during the three years of facing the wall and think about the past, and strive to use his talent to provide new momentum for the main line of the Ning family.
Now Ning Qingqing, who has suddenly gained the status of a family elder, is so arrogant. If Ning Zhuo is really provoked to take action, his life will be very high!
Unfortunately, Ning Zhuo, Zhu Xuanji, and Meng Kui have agreed to do their best to keep the final truth about the fight for Lava Immortal Palace. Even though Ning Yifan was informed afterwards, he could not leak it.
People don't know the truth and find it difficult to understand his good intentions.
