Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 368 Bet and Threat

Ning Fa glanced at Wei Shiqin with his eyes slightly narrowed, and guessed in his heart that it seemed that this person was the reason why Wei Shiqin was frowning.

I saw the man walking towards me slowly with a smile on his face.

He swept his spiritual sense over the bottles of pills and the storage bag full of spiritual materials on the table, and a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

He looked at Ning Fa in astonishment, then smiled and said, "This should be Junior Brother Ning Fa Ning, right? I am He Shaoan from Dan Ding Peak. Junior Brother may not recognize me, but I have heard of your great name for a long time."

"Senior Brother He."

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. This person seemed to have a polite attitude, so Ning Fa replied.

He Shaoan sighed and said, "I have long known that there is a very skilled alchemist behind Shiqin, but I didn't expect it to be Junior Brother Ning.

Junior Brother Ning is not only very skilled in fighting, but also very gifted in alchemy. I really admire him."

Ning Fa knew that this person was discovered from those bottles of elixirs and alchemy materials.

He smiled faintly and didn't respond.

At the same time, he keenly noticed that Wei Shiqin's face looked even uglier.

"I have something to discuss with Junior Brother Ning alone. Shiqin, please step aside for a moment." He Shaoan suddenly turned his head and said to Wei Shiqin.

Although his attitude was gentle, the affectionate way he addressed Wei Shiqin and the undisguised instructions in his words made Ning Fa frown.

Wei Shiqin smiled at Ning Faqiang and then left the room.

Ning Fa narrowed his eyes and looked at He Shaoan, wanting to see what this man was up to.

He Shaoan smiled at Ning Fa:
“Junior Brother Ning, I will get straight to the point.

I hope you will stop making elixirs for Shiqin and terminate your cooperation with her.

I will arrange for another person from the company to connect with you, and I guarantee that your interests will not be harmed.

I can even increase the compensation that Shiqin gives you by 30%."

After saying this, He Shaoan added with a reserved smile:
“Oh yeah, I forgot to introduce myself.

My grandfather is the deputy leader of Danding Peak, Master Pengyuan. I’m sure Junior Brother Ning should have heard of him.

As for me, I am not very talented, but I am currently the young master of Xudong Trading Company.

As long as Junior Brother Ning can agree to my words, I can even find a way to transfer Junior Brother Ning to Danding Peak in the future, what do you think? "

There was a hint of realization in Ning Fa's eyes.

This person's background is indeed extraordinary. He is actually the grandson of the Jindan cultivator behind Xudong Trading Company.

And that person is not an ordinary Jindan cultivator.

He Pengyuan, the Master Pengyuan, is quite famous in the sect. He is only over 200 years old now, which is the prime of his life.

The key is that he is a high-level alchemist, whose rank has reached as high as the third level.

It is said that in the entire sect, his alchemy level is second only to that of the leader of Danding Peak, Master Hong Fu.

Therefore, his status in the master-disciple faction is very high, which is not comparable to that of ordinary Jindan cultivators.

Because of this, the Xudong Trading Company he supported was able to grow and develop in Jiang State in a short period of time.

A third-rank alchemist would certainly try his best to make friends with and give concessions to forces other than the Huayu Sect.

As the grandson of Elder He, He Shaoan does have an impressive background.

He is of noble status, and his position and background in the sect are not comparable to what I have now.

And judging from his self-proclaimed title, it seems that he has already started to take charge of Xudong Commercial Bank, which shows that he holds a high status in the eyes of Master Pengyuan.

No wonder Wei Shiqin seemed a little afraid of him.

However, Ning Fa felt unhappy because of this man's seemingly amiable but actually arrogant demeanor and his tone which contained a hint of threat.

"I am very happy with my cooperation with Sister Shiqin, and I have no intention of ending it."

Ningfa shrugged and spoke in a relaxed tone.

Seeing Ning Fa's straightforward refusal, He Shaoan was a little bit unbelieving at first, but then the smile on his face disappeared. A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and his tone turned cold:
"Junior Brother Ning, have you thought it through?
I advise you that it is not a wise choice to make enemies with me.

I'll give you some time to think about it."

"Brother He, can I think that you are threatening me?" Ning Fa looked at him with a smile, not seeming to feel any pressure at all.

He Shaoan frowned, finally realizing that Ning Fa was a tough nut to crack.

"I'm sorry, I've always been a soft-hearted person and I can't stand threats. As for what Senior Brother He said, I can only do nothing to help." Ning Fa smiled lazily.

A cold light flashed in He Shaoan's eyes, and his aura suddenly rose. A powerful pressure belonging to a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building immediately emanated.

"Why, it seems that Senior Brother He wants to teach me a few moves?"

Ningfa stood up and said with a smile.

He straightened his shoulders, his posture was as tall as a mountain, and a strong aura emanated from him. He was not overwhelmed by He Shaoan's aura at all.

He Shaoan narrowed his eyes.

"Junior Brother Ning's strength is indeed as extraordinary as the rumors say. I admire you. But I hope you will think carefully about what I just said. It will definitely be of great benefit to you."

He Shaoan suddenly restrained his aura and smiled at Ning Fa in a calm manner.

It seemed that the tense situation just now was just Ning Fa's illusion.

Ning Fa frowned slightly, feeling for the first time how difficult this man was.

He Shaoan nodded to Ning Fa, then turned and left.

Ning Fa watched his back disappearing down the stairs, feeling secretly troubled.

It’s not that he was afraid of this person. The key point was that He Shaoan was now the young master of Xudong Trading Company.

I went against his wishes and became enemies with him. Then, if I want to collect spiritual materials through Xudong Trading Company in the future, I am afraid it will be greatly affected.

Ningfa didn't believe that he would be a generous person.

This person seems to be quite shrewd and his cultivation level is not low. He is a difficult character.

It seems that the honeymoon period between me and Xudong Trading Company may be coming to an end.

Ningfa couldn't help but feel a headache.

At this moment, a fragrance came and Wei Shiqin hurried in.

She looked at Ning Fa worriedly and asked, "Did He Shaoan make things difficult for you?"

Ning Fa shook her head and asked, "Sister Shiqin, what is going on? Why does He Shaoan want me to terminate my cooperation with you? Do you have any conflicts with him? Aren't you also from the business?"

Wei Shiqin smiled bitterly, hesitated for a moment, and then told the whole story.

Ning Fa's face darkened after hearing this.

It turned out that Wei Shiqin and He Shaoan had made a bet.

The bet is whether Wei Shiqin can make the performance of the Tongbao Pavilion branch in Hei Ze Xian City the best among the more than 20 branches in Jiang Kingdom within three years.

If this is not possible, Wei Shiqin will marry He Shaoan and become his Taoist partner.

But the key point is that becoming He Shaoan’s Taoist partner is not a good thing.

Because this person is practicing a dual cultivation technique that benefits men at the expense of women, it can almost be said that he is using women as a furnace to draw his essence.

This person already has several companions, and he changes them every once in a while.

After Wei Shiqin advanced to the foundation-building stage, she became He Shaoan's target because of her young and beautiful appearance.

However, because the Wei family is an important part of Xudong Trading Company and joined the company at the beginning of its establishment, He Shaoan could not force them directly.

However, in recent years, he has also used his power to oppress the Wei family, making the Wei family's situation increasingly difficult.

So Wei Shiqin had no choice but to make this bet with him.
