Mr. Ning smiled and did not answer Gu Chunuan's next question.
He was as kind and approachable as ever, "You little girl are so bold. Who else would dare to sneak into the underground palace besides you? Ahem..."
"Old man..."
"I...I'm afraid I can't survive. Girl Nuan, for the sake of our acquaintance, can you promise me something?"
"you say."
"Youer is missing. In the past few years, many of the younger generation in the Ice Spirit Continent have disappeared inexplicably. They have never been seen alive or dead. I have checked and found that they were all killed by the fake empress... ahem..."
"To absorb their power?"
Mr. Ning nodded, "Her martial arts are very evil. You must pay attention. Her ability to reach the seventh level is basically achieved by absorbing other people's martial arts essence and blood."
"I...I suspected that Youer's disappearance was related to her, so I tried every means to sneak into the royal family and came to the secret room of the underground palace."
"You'er is the only direct descendant of the Ning family. If something happens to him, the Ning family's incense will be cut off. After I die, I won't have the shame to explain to the Ning family's ancestors. Ahem..."
When Ning Tianyou was mentioned, Mr. Ning's pale face showed worry.
One of his eyes was gouged out and is still bleeding. Half of his face is covered in blood, which looks very scary.
But Gu Chunuan didn't think he was scary at all, he just felt sorry for Mr. Ning.
"I understand what you mean. I will do my best to find Ning Tianyou and protect him."
"Thank you, thank you... I know you are a good boy. As long as you promise, you will definitely do it."
Mr. Ning vomited out a mouthful of blood.
Gu Chunuan's eyes turned red.
"Old man, stop talking and save your strength. I'll take you away."
"No...it's useless. I'm glad that all my skills were not sucked away by that crazy woman, otherwise...she would have killed so many people if her strength had skyrocketed."
When he mentioned martial arts, Mr. Ning seemed to think of something.
He regained his energy a little and looked at Gu Chunuan.
"Girl Nuan, hold my hand."
Gu Chunuan held his wrinkled hand as she was told, thinking that he loved her and wanted to hold her hand before dying.
Unexpectedly, after holding Mr. Ning's hand, a powerful force flowed into her body from the palm of her hand and went straight to her limbs, making her body feel more comfortable and energetic than ever before.
Gu Chunuan was startled and wanted to withdraw his hand, but couldn't.
"Old man, what are you doing? Stop it."
"Instead of losing my skills to the Nine Springs, it would be better to pass them on to you. Maybe they will be of some use to you, ahem..."
Gu Chunuan's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and there is a faint rhythm of breaking through again.
However, Mr. Ning continued to become weak, and his wrinkled and dry face had almost become a skin and bones due to the loss of a lot of strength.
His hair also quickly turned snow-white, and not even a single black strand could be found.
Gu Chunuan could feel that his life breath was disappearing rapidly.
She became anxious, "Old man, I can reach the seventh level without your skill. Stop it."
"The Ning family has many secret skills, and this is one of them. Even if all my bones are broken, I can still teach you the skills. Nuan girl, don't talk, just absorb it seriously."
How can Gu Chunuan meditate?
It is difficult for Mr. Ning to survive, so he is destined to die.
Her body was like a balloon, being constantly inflated.
It blew her up so much that she almost exploded.
"boom……"
With his body stretched to the extreme, Gu Chunuan surged to the fourth high level, and then to the fifth level...
