Chapter 283
Ning Jiufan took Unlike Ning Zhuo with him and returned to his residence.
"You can stay in the side room." Ning Jiufan arranged for Unlike Ning Zhuo to be very close, right next to his study.
After Unlike Ning Zhuo settled down, he was summoned to the study by Ning Jiufan.
Ning Jiufan tested Unlike Ning Zhuo, letting him make a few talismans in front of him.
After Unlike Ning Zhuo drew them, Ning Jiufan swept them with his spiritual sense, first nodding slightly, then shaking his head slightly after seeing the last two.
"Your level of talisman making is quite good, your basic skills are quite solid, but there is still a distance from the top level."
Unlike Ning Zhuo said: "Ancestor, talisman making has never been my preference; what I like most is mechanical creation."
"Your requirements for me are a bit high. It is not easy to reach the top level you mentioned; it rarely appears in past generations in the school."
Ning Jiufan stared at Unlike Ning Zhuo and said sternly: "The foundation of our Ning family lies in talisman making. No matter how profound your mechanical skills are, your talisman making craft cannot be left behind!"
"Firstly, this is the specialty of our Ning family, and secondly, mechanical creation covers the hundred arts of cultivation, and talisman making is one of them."
Unlike Ning Zhuo immediately bowed: "Ancestor, your teaching is correct, I will definitely keep it firmly in my heart."
Ning Jiufan said again: "You must read the talisman making insights I gave you before carefully."
Unlike Ning Zhuo hurriedly indicated that he would read them whenever he had time.
Ning Jiufan stared at him; this junior Unlike Ning Zhuo was truly slippery, and his attitude toward him was very different from ordinary people!
The dignified master of the Ning family would be respectful when standing in front of Ning Jiufan. Unlike Ning Zhuo didn't have this attitude and was very unruly.
However, Ning Jiufan didn't rebuke him too much.
It was because very few people could treat him with such an attitude.
Ning Jiufan also knew a lot about Unlike Ning Zhuo's growing experience. He knew clearly in his heart: to a certain extent, Unlike Ning Zhuo had not been valued by the family since he was a child and belonged to a wild child raised in the wild.
It was understandable that the wild child Unlike Ning Zhuo had such an attitude toward him.
On the other hand, Ning Jiufan knew deeply about Unlike Ning Zhuo's innate talent and talent for mechanical skills. For this new star among the juniors, he also cherished him in his bones.
So Ning Jiufan not only tolerated Unlike Ning Zhuo's unruly attitude in front of him, but also felt that Unlike Ning Zhuo was quite straightforward.
Ning Jiufan let Unlike Ning Zhuo tidy up the desk and deliberately tested him, asking: "This time, City Lord Meng Kui and Divine Catcher Zhu jointly set a contract, agreeing that among us, no matter what position we obtain in the Lava Xian Gong, it will be retained afterwards."
"In the future, no matter who acts as Palace Master, they will not arbitrarily revoke the positions of others."
"Regarding this point, what is your view?"
"What do you think our Ning family should do?"
Unlike Ning Zhuo immediately raised his head and looked at Ning Jiufan beside him, saying without hesitation: "This is a huge good thing for our Ning family!"
"If I were the head of the Ning family, the next moment I heard this news, I would gather the whole clan, mobilize them, and go all out to strive for more positions."
Ning Jiufan was expressionless and continued to ask: "Why do you want to do this?"
Unlike Ning Zhuo continued: "It's very simple, the more positions our Ning family masters, the higher the degree of control over the entire Lava Xian Gong."
"No matter who becomes the Palace Master, the future Lava Xian Gong will still be the core place of Fire Persimmon Mountain."
"The main role of the Lava Xian Gong is to suppress Fire Persimmon Mountain, not let it erupt, constantly absorb the earth flames in Fire Persimmon Mountain, and eliminate the red-flame spirit beasts that are flourishing."
"And these earth flames, red-flame spirit beasts, and other underground resources are huge natural treasures."
"The more positions our Ning family masters, the more cultivation resources we can obtain from the Lava Xian Gong."
"In fact, it's not just this kind of tangible resource, but also merit. The Lava Xian Gong suppresses Fire Persimmon Mountain, which is beneficial to Fire Persimmon Xiancheng and meritorious to the Nandou Kingdom; these merits should also be intangible resources."
"Our Ning family's situation is actually a bit awkward. We wandered from the North Wind Kingdom to here, although we have taken root in Fire Persimmon Xiancheng for more than ten years, in terms of overall strength and status, we belong to the bottom of the four forces."
"This opportunity right now is very rare, and it is very likely that we may not encounter it again for decades."
"If our Ning family can seize this opportunity, we will inevitably be able to change the whole situation through the Lava Xian Gong, improve our Ning family's overall strength, foundation, and status in the Nandou Kingdom."
Ning Jiufan stroked his beard: "If, according to what you said, this is a huge good thing, then do you want to mobilize the whole family to change their cultivation?"
Unlike Ning Zhuo immediately shook his head: "Of course it's not like that!"
"Our Ning family's talent lies in practicing frost-type cultivation techniques."
"This advantage cannot be lost, and it cannot be changed."
"In my opinion, we should let the majority of ordinary cultivators who do not have this kind of frost talent change to practice the Five Elements Qi Law."
"In this way, through the scale of numbers, we can strive for positions in the Xian Gong with all our might before the Zhou family, the Zheng family, and the City Lord's Mansion!"
"As for the Ning family geniuses who appear later, let them continue to practice their original cultivation techniques."
Ning Jiufan was noncommittal.
In his heart, he was quite satisfied with Unlike Ning Zhuo's answer.
Thinking about it again, Unlike Ning Zhuo is only sixteen years old, which makes this Ning family Jin Dan ancestor look forward to Unlike Ning Zhuo's future even more!
He glanced at Unlike Ning Zhuo and said: "Wait for me to write a letter and ask the current clan leader. Do you think his thoughts will be consistent with yours?"
Unlike Ning Zhuo immediately shouted: "Ancestor, are you still expecting the main line of the Ning family! His answer doesn't need to be thought about; it must be main line first."
"According to me, if we really want the Ning family to develop better, we have to find another way and set up another mountain."
"These people in the main line have now become the stumbling block for our Ning family to take big steps forward."
"If I can split the family and become the head of the branch family, I will definitely be able to lead the whole Ning family to climb to a new peak!"
As a result, these words brought another rap from Ning Jiufan.
"Always splitting the family, splitting the family, can't you live without splitting the family? Don't mention this again!"
Ning family clan land, in the Ning family council hall.
The Ning family clan leader sat in the main seat, and the family elders of the Ning family sat on the left and right.
The Ning family clan leader handed Ning Jiufan's letter to the others.
The family elders finished reading quickly, all falling into silence, not saying a word.
The atmosphere in the entire council hall was quite dull.
The Ning family clan leader sighed deeply and said: "Let's all talk about your views."
The elder of the War Hall took the lead: "The situation right now is quite bad! If we let the modification team strive for the positions in the Lava Xian Gong, the branch of our clan will inevitably receive huge support, which will be extremely difficult to curb."
"In the future, who is the branch and who is the main line in our Ning family will be hard to say."
The elder of the School Hall echoed: "We rely on controlling cultivation techniques to control the whole clan. But if the cultivators all change to practice the Five Elements Qi Law, it is a fantasy to contain and control them from the cultivation techniques."
As soon as the voice fell, the elder of the Talisman Hall sneered a few times: "You old things, why can't you see the situation clearly yet?"
"On the surface, this is the ancestor coming to ask us. But in fact, this is just a gentle and tactful letter of persuasion to yield. Can we still refuse?"
"Such political strategy was discussed and decided by Zhu Xuanji and Meng Kui. It is very clear that they want to actively promote our four forces to go all out to compete for the positions in the Lava Xian Gong, and for this, they did not hesitate to yield future rights and interests."
"Our clan only has to go all out, there is no second option!"
"The Zhou family and the Zheng family will also be like this. Because whoever masters more positions in the Lava Xian Gong will have more power on Fire Persimmon Mountain in the future."
"This is a naked open conspiracy!"
"We have no way to stop it."
The elder of the School Hall shouted: "But, the talent of our Ning family lies in frost-type cultivation techniques, which is determined by our roots and bones."
"Now, we have to let most of our clan change to practice the Five Elements Qi Law and go crazy to strive for the positions in the Lava Xian Gong."
"Isn't this putting the cart before the horse and wasting talent?"
The elder of the Talisman Hall sneered repeatedly: "The talent of our clan does lie in the practice of frost-type cultivation techniques, but there is no obstacle to practicing the Five Elements Qi Law."
"Moreover, the vast majority of clan members do not have the innate talent like the Ice Fat Jade Hand, and there is not much difference between practicing frost-type cultivation techniques or practicing the Five Elements Qi Law."
"The problem now is not that we have a choice, but that we can only accept it."
"It's just that if it develops according to this trend, it will be hard to say who is the master and who is the secondary in our Ning family in the future!"
As soon as these words came out, the Ning family clan leader and all the family elders fell into silence.
The situation for the main line of the Ning family was quite severe!
Unlike Ning Zhuo had previously pulled Ning Xiaoren off his horse and took advantage of the situation to unite a group of former deacons, taking control of the black market overnight.
This heavy punch made the main line of the Ning family dizzy until now.
In fact, Unlike Ning Zhuo had already caused the split of the Ning family, and a part of the branch personnel set up another mountain in the black market.
The main line of the Ning family did not find a way to counter it and had pinned their hopes on the City Lord's Mansion and other parties, but Unlike Ning Zhuo's follow-up handling was excellent, and even Fei Si praised him for being sensible and more on the path than Sun Lingtong.
The main line of the Ning family could only pin their hopes on the future. After all, the black market cannot be controlled by one of the three families, which has long been a consensus among the high-level. It's just that it's a special situation right now.
As a result, the main line of the Ning family waited for this political strategy first!
This will greatly promote the development of the mountain headed by Unlike Ning Zhuo!
Originally, the foundation of Unlike Ning Zhuo and his group lay in the black market, earning money from the black market to practice.
Now, because the positions will be retained, the Lava Xian Gong is very likely to become another source of assets for Unlike Ning Zhuo and his group.
And this time, the political strategy of retaining the Lava Xian Gong positions has been confirmed by the highest level and is no longer a foundation that cannot be sustained like the black market.
The high-level of the Ning family had already foreseen this bad future.
However, what made them extremely discouraged was that they couldn't stop it at all!
