"Lu Feng, have you lost your damn mind? Can’t you see this little bastard is just trying to stir up trouble?" He Zhi fud at the sight of Ning Xuan.
Unperturbed, Ning Xuan mocked, "Getting angry out of embarrassnt now, are we?"
"What? Angry out of embarrassnt, my ass!" He Zhi couldn’t contain his rage and was about to move against Ning Xuan.
This ti, Jiang Ding responded with extre speed. Before He Zhi could even make a move, Jiang Ding was already standing in front of Ning Xuan.
Jiang Ding felt he was undeniably implicated in the theft of the Lu Family’s Secret Vault. After all, Lord Jin was his! Yet Ning Xuan kept being targeted, which made Jiang Ding feel quite guilty. Naturally, he had to help him.
Looking at Jiang Ding’s back, Ning Xuan felt a twinge of guilt. I raided his Secret Vault and lured away his priceless treasure, yet he’s so concerned about my safety. What a great person! Since he’s helping this much, I should definitely give him a reminder.
Right away, Ning Xuan spoke up, "Realm Lord, He Zhi has gambled away his entire family."
Hearing this, Jiang Ding’s eyes lit up, while He Zhi’s face turned ashen.
Lu Feng was even more vocal. "Damn it, He Zhi! You gambled away your own fortunes and now you’re using my family’s assets to cover your losses? Are you even human?!"
"I... No, screw it! So what if it was ? You gonna bite ?!" Realizing he couldn’t clear his na, He Zhi gritted his teeth and decided to go down fighting.
Ning Xuan and Jiang Ding were both inwardly ecstatic, as each believed he had gained an advantage. The difference was that Ning Xuan’s advantage was tangible. As for Jiang Ding...
"You know, Realm Lord, I still don’t have a place to stay in the Realm Capital. How about you lend the He Family’s residence for a while?"
Jiang Ding was now over the moon. Upon hearing this, he didn’t even give it a second thought before saying, "Lend it? From now on, you’re with . Consider the He Family my welco gift to you!"
With that, he marched straight to the bank, grabbed the land deed that He Zhi had mortgaged, and stuffed it into Ning Xuan’s arms.
Taking the deed, Ning Xuan put it away and thanked him with a smile. "Thank you, Realm Lord. You really are a great person!"
"Haha, of course!" Jiang Ding was even happier to hear soone call him a good person.
On the other side, the two who had been about to fight were separated by Jiang Ding’s intervention. Their eyes were now fixed on the land deed in Ning Xuan’s possession.
With one step, Jiang Ding exerted his Majestic Pressure. "He Zhi, a bet is a bet. The He Family is no longer yours! Lu Feng, lead the way. We’re going to your mansion to take a look. Maybe we can still find so..."
"Find so crap! The Secret Vault has collapsed! He Zhi, you truly are ruthless, damn it!" Lu Feng stared daggers at He Zhi, wishing he could tear him to pieces.
He was furious, not because He Zhi had raided his family’s Secret Vault, but because the idiot had actually gambled away his entire family! If he hadn’t lost it all, Lu Feng could have demanded compensation from him. But now this guy was even poorer than he was. How could he possibly compensate? With what?!
Forget it! I’ll have to figure sothing out with Ning Xuan instead. I can just pay a visit to his Secret Vault later.
Thinking this, although Lu Feng appeared frantic on the surface, his anger had actually dissipated. In fact, he even proactively transmitted his voice to He Zhi. "He Zhi, I’ll take the others to my house. Ning Xuan is all yours. You know what to do, right? I don’t have to teach you."
He Zhi was seething with anger, but he didn’t retort. Instead, he readily agreed.
The reason I got dragged into this ss is all because of that little bastard Ning Xuan’s ddling! The infuriating part is that this little bastard now owns my family’s property! This is sothing I absolutely cannot accept! You want my family, is that it? Fine, then I’ll take your life! Murderous intent surged in He Zhi’s heart.
On the other side, after hearing Lu Feng’s agreent, Jiang Ding imdiately said to his two brothers, "Gentlen, I’ll be back shortly. Please take care of things here." As he spoke, he gave them a aningful look, asking them to protect Ning Xuan for him.
"You’re going alone?" everyone else asked, surprised.
Of course I’m going alone! Lord Jin’s existence cannot be revealed to others!
"Too many people might inadvertently destroy so clues," Jiang Ding explained. "Lu Feng and I are sufficient."
Hearing this, everyone else nodded in agreent.
Soon, the two of them left.
Without delay, He Zhi addressed Ning Xuan. "Since the Realm Lord has given it to you, I have nothing more to say. Let’s go, I’ll take you to take over!"
"Haha, it’s been quite a while since I last visited your He family! Let’s go together!"
"Count in too!"
Jiang Ding’s brothers were indeed loyal, imdiately speaking up to follow along.
Before He Zhi could say anything, Ning Xuan stepped forward. "Seniors, the matters here are pressing. I can go by myself."
The two were still hesitating, so He Zhi added from the side, "Ning Xuan is going with . If sothing happens, could I absolve myself of the bla?"
With these words, the two no longer insisted. Jiang Ding had just said that Ning Xuan was his man. If He Zhi really dared to lay a hand on Ning Xuan, that would be declaring enmity against the Domain Lord’s Mansion! No one would be that foolish.
He Zhi, having gotten what he wanted, imdiately left with Ning Xuan, secretly ecstatic. Those two old fools are adorably silly. I won’t make a move myself, but if soone else does, that’s out of my hands! Heh heh. He Zhi began calculating and planning in his heart. I’ll not only kill this little bastard, but I’ll also take back what is rightfully mine!
What He Zhi didn’t know was that Ning Xuan was equally excited. The He Family seems even wealthier than the Lu Family. And their family definitely has secrets. The gains from this trip to the He Family will definitely surpass what I got from the Lu Family!
Each harboring their own sches, neither of them slowed their pace.
On the way, He Zhi didn’t forget to give Ning Xuan a little warning. "You know, our family is large, with many unruly people. If they find out I’ve gambled away the family fortune, they might go crazy. Wouldn’t it be better to bring more people with you?" he said, using reverse psychology.
Unexpectedly, Ning Xuan agreed imdiately. Without another word, he went back to gather more people.
He Zhi stood there stunned for a long ti. SMACK! He finally slapped himself across the face.
He had barely started walking back when Ning Xuan reappeared before him. Seeing the people following Ning Xuan, He Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. There weren’t many, just eight, all hastily recruited from outside the dueling grounds.
Heh heh, these people will all be my eyewitnesses! Little bastard, to thank you, I’ll grant you a swift death! He Zhi thought, becoming smug again.
anwhile, Ning Xuan was also instructing his group, "If a conflict breaks out later, don’t worry about . Just get as far away as you can!"
"Sure!" the eight agreed instantly, without a second thought. They had followed him, but not out of any respect for Ning Xuan. If real danger arose, they would certainly be the first to flee.
