Chapter 752: Ban Family

Unlike Ning Zhuo came to a hall of the Commerce Hall, attracting attention.

"Who is that youth?"

"White clothes, big head, looking at his appearance, it seems to be..."

"It should be Unlike Ning Zhuo. One of the first-class newcomers emerging from this Flying Cloud Assembly!"

Many cultivators cast curious glances, either whispering or communicating with spiritual sense.

Unlike Ning Zhuo walked to the counter.

The cultivator on duty behind the counter felt his heart pounding, and hurriedly stepped forward, greeting: "Fellow Daoist Unlike Ning Zhuo, what do you want to buy or sell? If you want to buy secretly, you can use spiritual sense to communicate; I will definitely keep it a secret for you!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo smiled slightly: "Thank you, but there is no need for that. I want to buy some Confucian cultivation spells."

He didn't use spiritual sense, but communicated with words.

The cultivator on duty was stunned for a moment; Unlike Ning Zhuo's request was unexpected.

Unlike Ning Zhuo participated in the Cloud-Rising Trial; shouldn't he be learning everywhere, why instead delve into the ways of teaching others?

"He is a first-class genius; naturally, it's an idea we ordinary people can't understand." The cultivator on duty thought of this, so he immediately retrieved the information and soon recommended a set to Unlike Ning Zhuo.

This is a prosperous age of cultivation.

There are dozens of related Confucian cultivation spells, and Unlike Ning Zhuo carefully screened them, picking out eight of them.

They are: Standing in the Snow at the Master's Gate, Ruler Discipline, Earnest Teaching, Tuition Enlightenment, Strict Teacher Heavy Training, Teaching Whip to Drive the Dull, Inheritor of the Mantle, Passing the Torch.

The Standing in the Snow at the Master's Gate technique, Unlike Ning Zhuo's current Confucian cultivation foundation cannot be cast. But he can use the relevant formations arranged to assist in completion. If this Confucian method is successful, the target cultivator will be able to directly understand the content taught, pass through the door, cross the threshold, and enter the hall.

The Ruler Discipline technique requires the use of a specific magic tool, a ruler, to be applied. It can make cultivators learn useful knowledge through the ruler's tapping.

The Tuition Enlightenment technique is a Confucian sacrificial method. Cultivators can receive tuition from students with the help of portraits of Confucian sages, and then bestow upon them a certain wisdom or knowledge.

"Buy them all." Unlike Ning Zhuo took out spirit stones and paid on the spot.

After he obtained Qing Huangzi's inheritance, he obtained a batch of spirit stones, used for daily expenses, and finally got rid of the embarrassment of always using Ghost Dao Jin Dan.

"Walk slowly." Under the eyes of the cultivator on duty and others, Unlike Ning Zhuo left this Commerce Hall hall leisurely.

Ban Ban Ban Jie sat by the window on the second floor of the restaurant.

A flying letter was delivered and landed in front of her.

"Unlike Ning Zhuo came to the Commerce Hall this time, actually just to buy some Confucian spells?"

Ban Ban Ban Jie looked closer, her brows slightly furrowed: "Why are they all methods of teaching others knowledge? This... what is the intention?"

Ban Ban Ban Jie, as a person specially sent by the Ban family, felt puzzled when seeing this information.

"Regardless of these. Where is Unlike Ning Zhuo?" Ban Ban Ban Jie stroked the jade pendant on her waist and contacted her subordinates around her.

Her subordinates kept an eye on Unlike Ning Zhuo at all times and responded immediately; the information submitted layer by layer was soon sent to Ban Ban Ban Jie.

Thus, when Unlike Ning Zhuo was halfway there, Ban Ban Ban Jie successfully appeared in front of him.

"Fellow Daoist Ning, wait a moment." Ban Ban Ban Jie blocked the way, "I am Ban Ban Ban Jie, a cultivator of the Ban family."

Ban Ban Ban Jie took the initiative to bow and introduced herself.

She deliberately said it loudly, just as there was a mountain peak to the southeast of the two, where a market was being held, crowded with people.

Sensing Ban Ban Ban Jie's movement, many cultivators immediately noticed.

"Look! It's Unlike Ning Zhuo."

"Ban Ban Ban Jie? Someone from the Ban family? And took the initiative to find Unlike Ning Zhuo? Are they going to fiercely teach this outsider a lesson?"

"Hurry over, there's a good show to watch!"

"There were many sayings before that Ban Ji was jealous of talent and secretly hired demonic cultivators to make things difficult for Unlike Ning Zhuo. Now the Ban family has even sent someone."

Many cultivators became excited, some cast detection spells, and some simply set up floating clouds, left the mountain peak, and drifted toward the position of Unlike Ning Zhuo and Ban Ban Ban Jie.

Unlike Ning Zhuo looked Ban Ban Ban Jie up and down; he saw the female cultivator wearing a hundred-toughness sky-silkworm garment inside, a fragrant cloud-entangled robe outside, and an amber silk gauze covering the robe.

Her eyebrows were thin as blades, and at her temples, two mysterious copper eyebrow nails were embedded as gear pivots, rotating on their own, with a slight amplitude that was almost imperceptible.

A sharp light flashed in Unlike Ning Zhuo's eyes, and vigilance immediately arose in his heart. He quickly scanned the crowd of cultivators flying over to watch the excitement, snorted coldly: "Ban Ban Ban Jie? What are you here for?"

Ban Ban Ban Jie showed a trace of just-right sorrow and sincerity on her face: "In the previous turmoil, my younger brother Ban Ji was framed by others! The so-called 'hiring demonic cultivators' is just a sinister trick by a petty person, wanting to provoke a dispute between the Ban and Ning families, and their heart is punishable! My Ban family is a famous and prestigious clan and would never act like this. If this misunderstanding is not removed, both families will be in pain, and the righteous path will be covered in dust!"

Speaking of this, Ban Ban Ban Jie looked around the audience, and then fixed her gaze on Unlike Ning Zhuo: "Today, Ban Ban Ban Jie is here with a thick face, bringing the generous intentions of the family elders, and offering some thin gifts, to show sincerity, hoping to resolve the misunderstanding with you, Fellow Daoist Unlike Ning Zhuo, and turn enemies into friends."

"Fellow Daoist has unique insights into mechanism arts and five-element wonderful methods, with a heart like a sword and a face like jade, truly a leader among us, naturally making people feel admiration and a desire to make friends."

"It is better to resolve enemies than to tie them; turning hostility into friendship is a beautiful story. Even in the future, being of one mind and one heart, and walking the great path together, is not a delusion."

The surrounding cultivators heard this and couldn't help but look at each other, communicating with spiritual sense for a while.

"The Ban family actually wants to take the initiative to resolve the misunderstanding with Unlike Ning Zhuo?"

"Unlike Ning Zhuo looks like he is alone, but it's just that his family is outside the Flying Cloud Kingdom. The Ban family's move is quite wise."

"I said the Ban family's family style wouldn't involve demonic cultivators. I didn't expect it to be someone else's trick!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo frowned and was about to speak.

Ban Ban Ban Jie observed his expression and fruitfully interrupted, directly slapping the storage bag at her waist, releasing the gifts for visiting Unlike Ning Zhuo this time.

For a time, treasure light burst forth, and as the light flowed, spiritual energy became misty, making people witness it and couldn't help but feel their hearts shake.

The cultivators exclaimed repeatedly.

"Did I see it wrong? This bottle seems to be Nine Heavens Mysterious Ice Marrow! Such an extreme cold treasure, the Ban family actually sent three drops!"

"Earth Fire Lotus Seed? This kind of spirit plant is rare; it is said that if cultivated properly, it can contain fire seeds."

"Actually, there is such a large Void Spirit-Nurturing Stone! This is a top-notch precious material for arranging teleportation formations or refining space magic treasures!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo couldn't help but be attracted.

He noticed a pagoda among them. The exquisite nine-story small pagoda was rotating quietly at this time. The tower body was covered with dense mysterious magnetic threads and micro-gears, matching the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, precise enough to make people dizzy.

Ban Ban Ban Jie introduced at the right time: "This is the Mysterious Magnetic Thousand-Mechanism Nine-Curve Treasure Pagoda; the treasures hidden inside are often very rare, otherwise they wouldn't be stored using such means."

She pointed her finger at a piece of jade: "This is the Ten-Thousand-Year Empty Green Divine Wind Jade."

Her finger moved to a crystal spirit egg: "This is a Green Luan egg; hatching it can obtain an excellent means of transport."

Finally, she introduced a simple animal skin scroll: "This is the 'Heavenly Evolution Ten-Thousand Transformations Beast Spirit Contract'. As long as you cultivate it, you can establish a contract with any monster, turning it into your own use. Even if the monster dies in battle, there is a certain possibility of forming a beast spirit, continuing to be driven by the cultivator." Unlike Ning Zhuo's brows furrowed even tighter, and the noise of the surrounding cultivators grew louder and louder.

"My god! The Ban family is generous! Which one is a thin gift?"

"Nine Heavens Mysterious Ice Marrow! Earth Fire Lotus Seed! Void Stone! My Dao heart... I have only seen it in this life!"

"The Ban family handles things atmospherically! Not sparing such a price to prove their innocence, but Unlike Ning Zhuo himself is indeed worthy of such attention."

Ban Ban Ban Jie stared at Unlike Ning Zhuo, not letting go of any tiny change in his expression.

She whispered in her heart: "Unlike Ning Zhuo! Such heavy gifts are right in front of you; just one word from you, and you can take them all as your own. I don't believe you are not moved!"

"As long as you accept them, our Ban family will have a righteous name!"

"You accept the benefits, and the Clan Fate Pivot Chain in the ancestral hall can take action, and take action on your luck again!"

How is it possible to accept the Ban family's treasures for nothing?

Unlike Ning Zhuo will inevitably have to pay more painful prices! And these prices are almost impossible for outsiders to detect.

"Heh." Unlike Ning Zhuo gave a light laugh, cold stars blooming in his eyes, his gaze sharp as a knife, landing on Ban Ban Ban Jie's face.

"Fellow Daoist Ban Ban Ban Jie, the Ban family... is truly a sincere big gift."

"This Nine Heavens Mysterious Ice Marrow has nothing to do with my five-element circulation. It is not needed for five-element harmony. The storage method requires a large amount of pure Yang and wood-attribute heavenly materials to build a special seal to preserve it."

"Earth Fire Lotus Seeds originally grow deep underground, in magma. If I want to cultivate them, I need a massive investment of fire-attribute resources, which will take a long time."

"The larger the Void Spirit-Nurturing Stone, the more difficult it is to utilize. When arranging the formation, if its internal stability is damaged, it will explode, and at that time, space will collapse, and I will fall into the void, dying without a burial place!"

"And this Mysterious Magnetic Thousand-Mechanism Nine-Curve Treasure Pagoda, to solve the problem and find the treasures inside, I don't know how much time and energy it will consume?"

"As for the 'Heavenly Evolution Ten-Thousand Transformations Beast Spirit Contract', looking at the appearance of this secret manual, I'm afraid it's an ancient method? How long do you want me to study it?"

"It's hard for you to specifically send a Green Luan egg for this, so that I have more motivation to cultivate this ancient method?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo pointed out one by one, saying it so that the cultivators in the field stopped talking.

Ban Ban Ban Jie, who was exposed, didn't panic at all, shaking her head repeatedly: "Fellow Daoist Unlike Ning Zhuo has too deep a misunderstanding of my Ban family, and has already fallen into the sinister trick of a villain."

"These were carefully selected from the clan's treasury. Even if Fellow Daoist Unlike Ning Zhuo doesn't use them, selling them to the Commerce Hall is a huge income."

"This Ten-Thousand-Year Empty Green Divine Wind Jade can nourish the soul and empty the mind; it is a top-notch treasure for assisting in comprehending wind and space. It is beneficial and harmless; what kind of distortion do you have for it, Fellow Daoist?"

Only Ban Ban Ban Jie knew the truth in the field.

These gifts were indeed "carefully selected", each with drawbacks. What Unlike Ning Zhuo said, although there were small mistakes, was generally correct.

The Ten-Thousand-Year Empty Green Divine Wind Jade also had drawbacks; the wind-attribute principles inside were too sufficient, and when cultivators comprehended it, it was very easy to indulge in it, so that the body and mind were eroded by the principles, unable to thoroughly digest and master it, leading to the foundation being polluted, which was more troublesome than dispersing cultivation and rebuilding.

Unlike Ning Zhuo snorted coldly, his eyes like electricity, piercing Ban Ban Ban Jie: "Clever words and hypocritical!"

"Ban Ji hired demonic cultivators to harm me; I have sufficient evidence in my hands, but I don't want to be distracted at the moment."

"Wait until the end of this Flying Cloud Assembly, I will definitely make it public and have a good confrontation with your Ban family."

"You blocked me halfway, attempting to paralyze me with heavy profits, leading me astray, with no time to take care of other things!"

"This calculation is truly sinister."

Unlike Ning Zhuo raised his voice, scanned everyone present, and immediately announced: "The Confucian sage said: 'To come without going is not polite'!"

"Your Ban family has harmed me twice or thrice; do you take me for an ignorant child?"

"Simply unreasonable!"

"I, Unlike Ning Zhuo, swear again that I will definitely repay Ban Ji with all my might, and will not stop until I make him cry for his father and mother and flee in a sorry state!"

"I trouble everyone present to witness for me!"

The crowd was in an uproar.

Unlike Ning Zhuo knew very well that there must be shills arranged by Ban Ban Ban Jie here, but most of them should be passersby.

The cultivators all widened their eyes, and their expressions toward Unlike Ning Zhuo were full of surprise.

"I didn't expect Unlike Ning Zhuo to be so fierce!"

"Too reckless, Unlike Ning Zhuo is provoking not just Ban Ji, but the Ban family. What reliance does he have?"

"Having said that, does Ban Ban Ban Jie's gift-giving have any sinister intentions?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo finished speaking, glanced coldly at Ban Ban Ban Jie, and flew away directly.

Ban Ban Ban Jie endured her anger, called out repeatedly, but couldn't stop Unlike Ning Zhuo, and could only watch the big-headed youth leave with a flick of his sleeves.

The corner of Ban Ban Ban Jie's eye finally twitched slightly.

"This little brat is actually unmoved in the face of heavy gifts!"

"I already reminded him that he could sell them for money, and he actually didn't accept them!"

Difficult.

Ban Ban Ban Jie had her first confrontation with Unlike Ning Zhuo and harvested a defeat.

"But my methods are more than these, humph, just you wait. Unlike Ning Zhuo!" Ban Ban Ban Jie stared dead at Unlike Ning Zhuo's gradually receding back, constantly brewing killing intent in her heart.

Point Star Peak.

Council Chamber.

Yan Linglong stood beside Situ Xing and whispered: "Leader Situ, as the saying goes, to settle the outside, one must first settle the inside."

"We have had two first-class geniuses here in a row, which is a great thing."

"But Unlike Ning Zhuo does not enter the ranking, and everyone has discussed this matter many times today. Is he looking down on us?"

"You are the one sitting in the first chair, followed by Lin Jinglong and Shen Xi. Unlike Ning Zhuo doesn't even have a chair, he obtained the stone token, his reputation is rising, and he hasn't even met you."

"If this situation continues to develop, I'm afraid everyone will have a strange feeling."

Situ Xing frowned tightly, looking out the window and pondering: "Indeed."

"The chair ranking is our rule, but Unlike Ning Zhuo doesn't follow this rule. Every moment he wanders outside, he is destroying our rules."

"What do you think should be done?"

Yan Linglong smiled slightly; she knew Situ Xing's temperament well and deliberately said: "This is easy. Leader Situ might as well write a letter, gently persuade him, and arrange for Unlike Ning Zhuo to sit in the second chair."

Situ Xing's brows furrowed even tighter.

Yan Linglong knew the timing was right and immediately took her leave in the name of cultivation.

Arriving at her own cave dwelling, quiet and deserted, she sent out a flying letter, conveying to Ban Ban Ban Jie: "What you asked me to do, I have done. Situ Xing and Unlike Ning Zhuo will definitely have a battle in the near future!" ===== CHAPTER 753 =====

Situ Xing's brows furrowed even tighter.

Yan Linglong knew the time was ripe and immediately excused herself in the name of cultivation.

Upon arriving at her own cave dwelling, secluded and empty, she sent out a flying letter to Ban Ban Ban Jie: "Everything you asked me to do, I have done. Between Situ Xing and Unlike Ning Zhuo, there will surely be a battle in the coming days!"
