Chapter 20 Prelude
After saying that, Ning Chuanwei walked excitedly towards Ning Fa's house.

Ning Fa was simply stunned by this guy's shamelessness. He immediately stopped him and said unkindly, "Do you really want to come in?"

Ning Chuanwei didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "It's all my fault that I was too excited. I forgot to bring a gift and had the nerve to come to your house. Brother Fa, please wait a moment, I will be back soon."

After saying this, the man disappeared in a flash.

Ning Fa was stunned. After a while, he muttered, "It has a future."

Soon, Ning Chuanwei came to visit again with a lot of bags, but was directly chased out by Ning Fa.

Ning Chuanwei did not dare to complain at all. Because they were neighbors, he even felt a sense of honor.

Whenever he met someone, he would excitedly tell them that Ning Fa had become the family's official alchemist. He was so excited as if he had become the family's alchemist himself.

As word of mouth spread, within half a day, many people on Pyeongchang Island knew about the incident, and it finally reached several relatives of Ning Fa's family.

……

At the home of Ning Fa's eldest aunt Ning Muchun.

In addition to Ning Muchun's family of three, Uncle Ning Fa and Fourth Uncle's family were also here. This was the sixth time that the families had sat together to discuss matters in the past month. Several elders of their lineage were not present.

In the hall, after a heated debate, the air fell silent again.

Ning Muchun and Meng Jinliang looked calm, as if they were fully confident in their plans, while their son Ning Furong crossed his arms over his chest, with a smug smile on his face that he could hardly suppress.

The other two families looked unhappy. Uncle Ningfa and aunt Ningfa looked gloomy and even a little angry. Although cousin Ningfa looked calm, his brows were furrowed.

Even Ning Muchun's brother Ning Baiquan and his family looked unhappy.

Ning Muchun glanced at everyone, and finally took the initiative to break the silence, saying, "This is the situation. You all know that the [Spirit-Fixing Pill] is an extremely precious late-stage Qi training pill that can break through. Even if a cultivator with four spiritual roots and a sixth-level Qi training level takes it, it can increase the chance of breaking through by 30%. As long as we can get a pill of this pill, Rong'er will have a better chance of breaking through to the late stage of Qi training."

"Normally, it is difficult to buy Dingling Pills even in Tianshui Market, and the price is extremely expensive. This time, the family treasury suddenly released two Dingling Pills, and the price is much cheaper than outside the market. We must not miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Hearing this, Ning Zhengqian, the eldest uncle of Ningfa, who had long been unable to bear it, could not help but retort: "I have no objection to you buying the [Spirit-Fixing Pill], and I won't say anything even if you use our family's public property, but why do you want us to sell our spiritual fields to collect the spiritual stones?"

After these words were spoken, even Ning Baiquan, who always stood on his sister's side, couldn't help but nod slightly with a look of approval.

Because his family was also asked by Ning Muchun to sell the spiritual fields.

Ning Muchun said indifferently, "Zhengqian, you are wrong. This time, it is not just you and the third brother's family that want to sell the spiritual fields. Not only do we want to sell some of our spiritual fields, we even plan to sell one of our fishing boats."

"Even though the family's Soul-Fixing Pills are cheaper than those sold outside, they still require 500 family contribution points and at least 1,200 spirit stones. We also need extra spirit stones to maintain relationships, so we naturally need to prepare a little more spirit stones."

Hearing this, Uncle Ningfa opened his mouth, wanting to say something but unable to speak.

But Ningfa's aunt Guo Ru couldn't help but say, "But that's also to buy the elixir for your son. Your family should have contributed more spiritual stones. Everyone knows that your family is rich and has five fishing boats. Can't you sell two more fishing boats?"

Ning Muchun glanced at her indifferently. The majesty brought by being in charge of all matters of the branch for a long time, coupled with the suppression of a high realm, made Guo Ru, who was only at the third level of Qi training, dare not look her in the eye.

She sneered, "Sister Ru, you're right. If my family sells everything we have, we can raise this amount of spiritual stones, but have you forgotten what we discussed a month ago?" "Didn't we agree to use our entire family's strength to train Rong'er to advance to the late stage of Qi training? If only our family contributes, and Rong'er really wins the position of the direct descendant in the future, then can you not enjoy the status of the direct descendant of the family? You don't have to let Rong'er take care of you in the future? You can't just enjoy without paying, right?"

Guo Ru was left speechless by what Ning Muchun said.

Ning Muchun snorted coldly, and then said: "If you don't want to sell the spiritual farm, then go and convince Ning Fa to agree to sell the shop, then all problems will be solved."

Hearing this, Ning Fa's uncle Ning Zhengqian shook his head and said, "Sister, we all know that the shop was earned entirely by Zhiyuan alone, and it is also the legacy he left to Xiaofa. When Xiaofa returns from the Fifth Elder's Mansion, you should return the shop to him. As for this spiritual farm, just sell it. Alas."

Ning Fa's aunt Guo Ru hurriedly grabbed his clothes and was about to say something, but Ning Zhengqian waved at her.

Guo Ru's expression darkened, she loosened her hands, and finally said nothing more.

Seeing that Ning Zhengqian finally agreed, Ning Muchun and Meng Jinliang looked at each other and their faces lit up with joy.

However, both of them sneered in their hearts when Ning Zhengqian asked them to return the shop to Ning Fa.

What they were thinking in their hearts was that when Ningfa came back from the Fifth Elders in three months, they would have no scruples and would officially take over the store no matter what means they had.

To be honest, even if Ningfa agreed to sell the shop, they themselves were still unwilling to do so.

Because of the current development momentum of the Ning family, the prices of shops in the market on Jinchang Island change every day, and every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

They have long regarded this shop as their own property, so naturally they are not unwilling to sell it now.

Seeing that Ning Zhengqian had agreed, Ning Baiquan sighed and nodded in agreement.

Meng Jinliang's smile faded. In order to ease the atmosphere, he stood up and deliberately looked towards the door and said, "Why hasn't Xilin arrived yet? We need to ask him before we can determine which public property to use. After all, he knows the situation best."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

Meng Jinliang smiled and said, "It's just right that he's here."

Soon, an old man in black, with a ruddy complexion and looking smart and capable, hurried in.

This person is Ning Xilin, the manager of the Ning Fa lineage's mortal bloodline.

"Xilin, what took you so long? Didn't I tell you that I had something important to discuss today?"

Ning Muchun shouted at Ning Xilin with a dissatisfied look on his face.

Ning Xilin quickly apologized, then respectfully greeted everyone in turn.

After all, there is a difference between immortals and mortals. Although he is of a high generation, he is naturally inferior to the immortal cultivators of his lineage.

Then he stood there in a trance, opening his mouth to speak but unable to say anything. The expression on his face was very interesting, as if he was both shocked and unbelievable.
