Immortal Creation

Ning family dungeon.

Ning Xiaoren sat on the straw, leaning against the wall, with a dazed look on his face.

Ever since he was escorted here, he has been in a daze, his eyes unfocused, like a statue.

There was a slight sound of footsteps.

Ning Xiaoren's ears moved slightly, and he immediately heard that a jailer had left his post.

Then, the door opened, and a familiar sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer.

Ning Xiaoren seemed to be suddenly awakened, and he regained his lively expression. He stood up and walked a few steps to the fence of the cell.

"Dad!" Sure enough, the next moment, he saw a familiar figure walking out of the shadows from the direction of the cell door and coming to this area illuminated by torches.

The person who came was the head of the Ning family.

The Ning family leader finally showed his true emotions at this time, with a gloomy face: "Xiaoren, I'm here to see you."

Ning Xiaoren's Adam's apple rolled a few times, and he said with a little sob: "Dad, I disappoint you."

The Ning family leader nodded, with a tone of regret: "You disappoint me very much."

"Do you know where you lost this time?"

Ning Xiaoren nodded: "I know!"

"First, I have long lost the support of the people. In these years as the young patriarch, I have offended too many people from the branches. This time, the wall fell and everyone pushed, and I couldn't resist."

"Second, I was too careless. To frame Ning Ze, I should have done it more decisively. Even after framing him, it is not impossible to take his life. In this way, even if Wang Lan and others sued me today, Ning Ze would not turn against me. , I would not be so passive!"

"Third, I was too careless. I have been the young patriarch for many years. I am used to seeing the people of the branch clan dare not speak out, and they are used to them holding their noses to endure me. I underestimated them, and I also underestimated Ning Ze. I indulged him because Ning Ze has been my subordinate for many years. "

"Fourth, and most importantly. I underestimated Ning Zhuo!"

"This young man is not simple. He took advantage of the hearts of my people and the situation of the Lava Fairy Palace."

"He only has the third level of Qi Refining. He looks very weak, but in fact, he is very experienced."

"I never thought that such a mature way of dealing with things would appear in a sixteen-year-old boy."

The head of the Ning family nodded and sighed: "Your analysis is very organized, yes, it seems that the spirit is strong. It hasn't been lost yet."

"However, although Ning Zhuo is a key figure... today's situation may not be his personal doing."

"Ning Zhuo has a reputation, but he can't get everyone to respond. Ning Youfu, Ning Houjun and others appeared almost at the same time. Someone must have contacted and communicated secretly in advance."

"The clan members were mobilized too quickly. I'm afraid some of these people have been prepared and have been waiting for things to get out of hand."

"The elder of the ancestral hall smelled the strong smell of conspiracy, so he didn't protect you."

Ning Xiaoren's face was gloomy, and he nodded heavily: "I don't hate him anymore. The elder of the ancestral hall made a rational choice. At that time, I couldn't face all the hard evidence. If he came down to protect me, I might lose his position as the elder of the ancestral hall."

Ning Family Head: "I'm glad you understand."

Ning Xiaoren said: "Dad, what should I do next? You must have a way, right?"

"Of course." The head of the Ning family nodded, "According to my arrangement, you will be imprisoned for three years."

"This is actually your chance!"

"In the dungeon, you must practice talismans diligently, study excellent frost talismans, and contribute them to the family for free, replacing punishment with merit."

"I have prepared the relevant talismans for you, from the treasures of a cultivator somewhere in Beifeng Country."

"About a year later, when the storm has completely subsided, you can make a slight change to the talisman and offer it."

"And in the days to come, you will practice hard in this dungeon."

Ning Xiaoren nodded: "I understand, Dad. I will treat it as a retreat here."

The head of the Ning family: "Well, I am very pleased that you have such an attitude. Such setbacks are not opportunities for you to grow?"

"In a person's life, there are always mistakes and failures. Only those who fight again and again after repeated failures can be heroes. "

Ning Xiaoren sighed: "My father's teachings, I will remember them in my heart."

The head of the Ning family: "When you offer the talisman, I will reduce your punishment according to the family rules."

"At that time, you can still stay in the family instead of being expelled."

"This Ning family is the one that has the final say. As long as you stay in the family, you will have no worries about not having opportunities to make merit and climb up step by step."

Ning Xiaoren frowned: "Do other people in the main line have any opinions?"

The head of the Ning family snorted coldly: "I have already talked to them."

"The branch line is so powerful this time that we, the main line, are alert. They are also aware of your past achievements in suppressing the branch line. Therefore, they all agreed that they should teach the branch line a lesson. Let them know who is in charge of the Ning family! "

"In the future, your father will discuss with them more, and maybe he can get some credit from them for you, so that you can reduce more punishment. "

"What you need to do now is to stay in the dungeon and wait for the storm to subside."

"Father, I understand!" Ning Xiaoren calmed down completely, "Next, how should we clean up the mess?"

"What about Ning Zhuo..."

The head of the Ning family interrupted him and said, "For Ning Zhuo, the main branch will not immediately cause trouble for him, and there will be no suppression at all."

"He is in the limelight now, and all the people in the branches of the family are watching him."

"If there is any more unfair treatment, the branch will sympathize with him more, support him, and increase his momentum."

"Even in the near future, we will give him a lot of resources to ease the contradiction between the main line and the branch lines."

Ning Xiaoren's eyes flashed coldly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Give him, give him more, the more, the better!"

"This kid is extremely greedy for money, and he is as good as me."

"I don't believe he didn't fall into the trap!"

"Let him gain family favor and support. I don't believe that people from the branch will not envy or envy him."

"Use this trick to separate his connection with the branch!"

"Isn't it because we are wary of him because he has now become a flag of the branch?"

The head of the Ning family chuckled, showing a look of satisfaction: "Xiaoren, it's not in vain that I raised you from childhood to adulthood."

"We've planned to do that."

"However, it may not be possible."

"According to our discussion, most people think that Ning Zhuo has someone guiding him behind his back."

"The branch clan members gathered too quickly today. Ning Youfu, Ning Houjun and others seemed to have planned and communicated in advance and acted in a unified manner."

Ning Xiaoren nodded, gritted his teeth, and said with cold eyes: "It would be great if we caught him colluding with outsiders!"

"Ning Zhuo!"

"I didn't expect that I would fall on such a horny kid like you. It's such a shame and humiliation."

"One day, I will return to you double the shame I have suffered today!"

Ning Xiaoren swore that he could not suppress the overwhelming hatred for Ning Zhuo deep in his heart.

The head of the Ning family nodded, quite satisfied with Ning Xiaoren's mental state: "My child, with this resentment, practice well."

The father and son exchanged a few more words, and then the head of the Ning family turned and left.

"Father!" Seeing the head of the Ning family disappearing into the shadows, Ning Xiaoren called from behind, "Be careful with Ning Zhuo!"

"When I think about it now, I always feel that Ning Zhuo is not a simple boy, very simple!"

The head of the Ning family stamped his feet and turned around, looked at Ning Xiaoren, and nodded slightly: "Dad will pay more attention to him."

"It would be quite scary if today's incident was not caused by the people behind him but planned by him alone."

"Let's see his next move."

"Today, he returns with a great victory and his reputation has skyrocketed. This is an extremely rare opportunity."

"It depends on whether he can discover this opportunity, seize it, and really gain momentum."

I'd rather be responsible for the family home.

In the master bedroom, Ning Zhuo's uncle and aunt were sitting beside the bed.

Aunt Wang Lan is checking Uncle Ning Zhuo's body, casting spells, and treating his wounds.

Her eyes were red and she choked with sobs: "Master, you have suffered this time."

Ning Zui sighed: "Thanks to you this time, how did you make up your mind to tell Ning Zhuo the truth?"

Wang Landao: "Hey, I've never thought about it this way."

"After visiting the prison, I was ready to implement our plan - the next day, I would kneel down to Ning Zhuo in public and force him to return to the modification team."

"Unexpectedly, when I opened the door that night, I was shocked by Ning Zhuo."

"Ning Zhuo has entered the room a long time ago and is waiting for me."

Ning Zui suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly: "Huh? Please elaborate."

Wang Lan: "I don't know where Ning Zhuo got the information. As soon as he opened his mouth, he revealed the secret that 'I went to visit the prison, and Ning Xiaoren wanted to use you and me to blackmail him into bowing his head.'"

"I was panicking."

"Ning Zhuo told me that after you were framed for embezzling his cultivation resources, he secretly investigated you and found many flaws, which raised a lot of suspicions."

"He then told his guess, and he guessed the truth!"

"Then, he asked me, can I still believe in Ning Xiaoren's character? Will I continue to be used by Ning Xiaoren?"

"If we want to truly rescue you, Ning Xiaoren is absolutely unreliable, we have to rely on ourselves!"

When Wang Lan said this, he sighed: "Head of the family, I was moved by him."

"He makes so much sense."

"Then, he told me that Ning Xiaoren made a fatal mistake and had too many flaws. He has already contacted important people in the branch, and tomorrow he will turn the world upside down and attack Ning Xiaoren!"

"I was shocked when I heard his plan. I wanted to participate, but I was very worried about failure and ultimately endangering you as the head of the family."

"Ning Zhuo force me!"

"He threatened me. If I don't cooperate, I will be convicted of the crime that Ning Xiaoren arranged for you. You will be disgraced and your reputation will be ruined. You will not be able to hold your head high in the family for the rest of your life."

"Master, I know you very well. If Ning Zhuo, a little brat, really does something like this, you will definitely be worse off than dead."

"In the end, I had no choice but to follow his orders."
