Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 296 Renew the relationship
The person who sent the third sound transmission note to Ningfa was somewhat unexpected to him.

It was his uncle Ning Jing'an.

This person changed from his previous cold attitude and spoke very warmly and politely. He also invited Ning Fa to meet at Yungu Market, and the time was chosen by Ning Fa.

Ning Fa thought about it and decided to ignore him for the time being and wait until he met Liu Qinghui and Duanmu Ling.

Coincidentally, Liu Qinghui's cave is also on Yunlan Peak, and not far from Ning Fa's cave.

Ningfa flew slowly towards the top of the mountain, and soon arrived in front of a cave with a cherry forest in front of the door.

Soon the cave door opened, and Liu Qinghui, dressed in a plain white dress, walked out. Under the flying cherry blossoms, she was incredibly beautiful.

"come in."

Liu Qinghui greeted him with a normal expression.

Ningfa glanced at her, then shrugged and walked in first.

The layout of the cave here is almost the same as Ning Fa's, but it has the warmth unique to female cultivators.

Liu Qinghui brought spiritual tea and spiritual fruit, then took out an ancient scroll on alchemy and discussed it quietly with Ning Fa.

Ning Fa was stunned. Was he really discussing alchemy with him?

But soon after, Liu Qinghui's clothes fell off one by one, revealing a body as white as jade.

She raised her pretty face and looked at Ningfa, her expression was stern and inviolable, and there was even a hint of provocation in her eyes.

Ninfa smiled.

It seems that she was right, she did think about it.

"What are the differences between female cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage?"

Ningfa suddenly thought of this question in his mind, and felt it necessary to put it into practice.

He smiled and stretched out his hand, and suddenly the cave was filled with spring.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Ningfa's face was full of admiration.

After practice, he was convinced that female cultivators in the foundation-building stage were indeed very different.

Just when he wanted to confirm again, a sound transmission note burned in front of the two of them.

Then a young man's voice was heard.

Liu Qinghui's breathing was rapid, and it took a while for her to calm down. She closed her eyes and said, "Let's stop here today. Duanmu Tai is outside the cave. He knows I'm in the cave today, so I can't hide away."

"Duanmu Tai?"

Ningfa turned over and muttered something.

This Duanmu Tai was the young man who was clearly in love with Liu Qinghui during the previous meeting at Pingchang Peak.

Later, Ning Fa learned his identity from Cao Xian.

From his unique surname, we can tell that he was born into the Duanmu family, and he is a direct disciple with a very high status.

Although his status is not as high as Duanmu Ling and the other two outstanding members of the Duanmu family, he is still a well-known figure among the younger generation of the Duanmu family.

Duanmu Tai is also the one with the highest status and identity among Liu Qinghui's many suitors.

It is said that he fell in love with Liu Qinghui at first sight when Liu Qinghui just entered the sect, and he was unstoppable from then on.

Later on, Liu Qinghui had to hide from him often.

"Duanmu Tai is a very high-quality candidate for a Taoist partner. I guess there are countless female disciples in the sect who hope to become his Taoist partner. Aren't you moved at all by his pursuit?" Ning Fa asked with a smile while playing with his hands.

Liu Qinghui rolled her eyes at him and then slapped his mischievous hand away.

"Get dressed quickly. It will be bad for both you and me if you take too long."

Not long after, Liu Qinghui, dressed neatly, led Duanmu Tai into the cave.

This person was delighted at first, but when he saw that there was a strange man like Ning Fa in the cave, his expression suddenly changed.

Ningfa looked at him with sympathy.

He saw in him the image of his former life, the great enemy.

Liu Qinghui looks pure and weak, but she is not someone that ordinary people can grasp. Only a bad man like me can do that.

He immediately introduced his relationship with Liu Qinghui with a normal expression.

When he heard that Ning Fa and Liu Qinghui came from the same place and could even be said to be from the same clan, Duanmu Tai's face suddenly brightened up and he even became very enthusiastic towards Ning Fa.

Obviously, he also wanted to establish a good relationship with Ningfa to save the country indirectly.

After chatting for a few words, Ning Fa stood up and said goodbye. Duanmu Tai secretly gave him a grateful look.

Ning Fa couldn't bear to look at him.

When they came out of the cave, they found that it was already evening. Ning Fa, who had originally planned to go to Qiongyue Peak to reminisce with Meng Ruoqi and Ling Yue, had to give up the plan.

He returned to his cave to rest for a night, and the next day he rushed to Luoxing Peak to meet Duanmu Ling.

Luoxing Peak belongs to the inner sect's Xingluo Peak, and Duanmu Ling is a disciple of this peak.

The master of Xingluo Peak is none other than the ancestor of the Duanmu family, [True Man Xuanjun] Duanmu Xuan, who is in the late Jindan realm.

He is also another late Jindan cultivator in the family faction, besides the ancestor of the Ouyang family.

Ning Fa did not choose to join Xingluo Peak, and this ancestor Duanmu was one of the reasons.

He has many secrets, and the pressure on a cultivator in the late Jindan stage is still too great.

Soon, Ning Fa met Duanmu Ling again in the stone pavilion by the lake.

Seeing Ning Fa coming, Duanmu Ling showed a faint smile on her beautiful face, and then motioned Ning Fa to take a seat.

She stretched out her hand, and a cup of fragrant spiritual tea flew in front of Ningfa.

Ning Fa picked it up and took a big sip without hesitation.

Duanmu Ling said leisurely, "Junior Brother Ning, you should have known by now that the sect is preparing to devote all its efforts to expanding south into the Cloud Wasteland, right?"

Seeing Ning Fa nod, she smiled and said, "The Cloud Wasteland Marsh is actually a treasure land, but the environment is too harsh and dangerous, and the cost of development is too high, so our sect and the Wanfa Sect did not fully develop it before, but it is different now."

"A rich mining area has been discovered in the Cloud Wasteland Marsh. Not only are there many precious spiritual ore veins, but there's also a vein with astonishing reserves of spiritual stones, enough to be mined for over eight hundred years. It may even contain a significant reserve of mid-grade spiritual stones. Therefore, the sect is paying unprecedented attention to this area."

Ning Fa was slightly shocked. Senior Brother Cao was really well-informed.

Now we have learned the exact news from Duanmu Ling that a large spirit stone vein has indeed been discovered in the Yunhuang Lake. This should be the fundamental reason why the sect attaches so much importance to it.

Duanmu Ling said leisurely: "This southern expansion is not only extremely critical to our family faction and the master-disciple faction, but also determines which faction will dominate the sect in the future. It is also very important for our family faction."

"The Grand Elder has already issued an order. In addition to those large mineral veins, whichever force seizes the other resource points during the southern expansion process first can mine for 30 years and only pay 20% of the tax to the sect. Therefore, there will inevitably be fierce competition among our major families, and the core disciples of our families will definitely bear the brunt."

“For core disciples of the family like me, Ji Qingqing, and Ouyang Tianzong, this is more like a big test. Whoever performs well in Nantuo will be ranked higher among the younger generation of disciples in the family faction, and will receive full support from the family faction to form a pill or even an infant.”

"Even within our Duanmu family, although I'm currently ranked first among the younger generation, it doesn't mean I can rest easy. People like Duanmu Pojun and Duanmu Qiong are also eyeing me covetously. If I don't perform well in this southern expansion, it's very likely that they will replace me."
