Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 400 Duanmu Pojun's solicitation

"Two years later? Okay, but I can't put all my hopes on this auction. Brother Cao, please help me keep an eye out for other news." Ning Fa pondered.

"No problem, leave it to me." Cao Xian agreed readily.

He smiled on his fat face and was about to continue talking about something, but suddenly his expression changed and he whispered:
“Junior Brother Ning is really popular now, and Senior Brother Duanmu is also here to look for you.

Then I will take my leave first. I will contact you as soon as possible regarding the Tianxuan Intermittent Cream."

As soon as Cao Xian left, a tall man entered the tent.

This man was of sturdy build, dressed in black, and looked to be in his early thirties. He had a handsome face, slightly raised cheeks, eyes as cold as lightning, and an aura of terrifying power.

A majestic pressure as deep as the sea emanated faintly, and the power was far beyond that of an ordinary cultivator in the late stage of foundation building.

This person is none other than Duanmu Pojun, the second most important person in the younger generation of the Duanmu family, second only to Duanmu Ling.

"Junior Brother Ning, I heard that you have made great contributions in the battle of Dingyang Mountains. I would like to thank you on behalf of our family." Duanmu Pojun said with a casual smile.

Ning Fa did not dare to be arrogant, he stood up and said modestly: "Brother Duanmu, you are too kind. These are just what I should do."

"Junior Brother Ning, there is no need to be too modest. This is a small gift from me. I hope you will not despise it."

Duanmu Pojun laughed heartily and then threw a storage bag to Ning Fa.

Ning Fa took a quick look with his spiritual sense and was shocked.

In the storage bag was the golden corpse of a ferocious bird.

Although this ferocious bird is dead, it still exudes a powerful and majestic aura, and a strong force of thunder and lightning still remains in its body.

This is actually a mid-stage second-order Thunder-winged Eagle.

This monster has thunder attributes, and its value is much higher than other monsters of the same level.

It is even more precious to a thunder-attribute cultivator like Ning Fa.

It has to be said that the second young man of the Duanmu family is very generous.

Although Ning Fa was tempted, he absolutely dared not accept it.

He smiled politely and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Duanmu, for your kindness. However, my achievements in this battle have already been converted into contribution points. I don't need you to give me any additional compensation. Please take it back."

After saying that, he pushed the storage bag back to Duanmu Pojun.

The smile on Duanmu Pojun's face suddenly disappeared.

He stared at Ningfa expressionlessly, and a depressing aura emanated from him.

Ning Fa's expression remained calm, as if he didn't feel any pressure at all.

Duanmu Pojun suddenly smiled, and all his aura was gone: "I really admire Junior Brother Ning more and more. I believe we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

After saying that, he left directly.

Ning Fa rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache.

As his fame grew, he also attracted some troubles.

For example, this Duanmu Pojun.

He has shown goodwill to him several times, and his intention to win him over is not concealed at all.

He was not too worried about whether this would anger Duanmu Ling.

Because Duanmu Pojun is very strong now.

In the past few years, Duanmu Pojun has made rapid progress.

Not only did his cultivation improve greatly and break through to the late stage of foundation building, the key is that he was just like Ning Fa, practicing both Dharma and body, and his strength was extremely strong.

The pioneering tasks in recent years have been completed very well, not much inferior to Duanmu Ling.

This also made him, who already had a strong reputation, even more prestigious within the Duanmu family.

Moreover, because of his natural advantage as a man, he received support from many core members of the Duanmu family.

This brought a lot of pressure to Duanmu Ling.

But the Wu family, the first vassal family of the Duanmu family, had already turned to Duanmu Pojun a year ago. The chief elder of the Wu family, Wu Tianxiang, led all the family monks to join Duanmu Pojun's team.

Because of this incident, Duanmu Ling was furious and wanted an explanation from the Wu family.

But Duanmu Pojun blocked it.

The two even came to blows.

In the end, Duanmu Ling was slightly better and defeated Duanmu Pojun, but the victory was not easy.

Even for Duanmu Ling, this battle could be considered a defeat even though it was a victory.

From that day on, the top leaders of the Duanmu family completely treated Duanmu Pojun and Duanmu Ling equally.

Duanmu Ling no longer has the exclusive title of the first among the younger generation of the Duanmu family, and can only be ranked alongside Duanmu Pojun.

From then on, Duanmu Pojun's reputation became very famous, and he even surpassed Duanmu Ling in terms of fame.

However, although Duanmu Pojun is strong, Ning Fa will not be as indecisive as the Wu family.

Although he and Duanmu Ling have a cooperative relationship rather than a master-servant relationship.

But to some extent, he is like Feng Jue and can be regarded as a follower of Duanmu Ling.

He himself admired Duanmu Ling. She always kept her word and did things in a generous manner. Ning Fa was quite impressed by her.

Therefore, even though Duanmu Pojun showed goodwill to him many times and secretly promised him huge benefits, Ning Fa would not change his ways and work for Duanmu Pojun.

But Ning Fa also felt that Duanmu Pojun's patience seemed to be running out.

If Ningfa refused one or two more times, he would probably turn against Ningfa.

This is why Ningfa feels a headache, but he will not easily give in to this pressure.

Suddenly Ning Fa's expression changed, as if he had thought of something.

He took out a shell-shaped communication device and spoke a few words quickly.

Ning Zhongjiu's voice came out from it.

Ning Fa hurriedly got up and went to see Ning Zhongjiu.

In another tent a few miles away, Ning Zhongjiu was closing his eyes and regulating his breathing.

His face was slightly pale, and his spiritual pressure was unstable. It was obvious that he had suffered minor injuries in the battle.

He saw Ning Fa coming in hurriedly, and stood up and asked, "Xiao Fa, what's the matter? I see you seem to be in a hurry."

"Uncle Jiu, has Duanmu Pojun ever come to win you over?" Ning Fa asked directly to the point.

Ning Zhongjiu's ancient and majestic face suddenly changed, and he probably knew why Ning Fa came.

"He did come to me and wanted to give me a spiritual attack weapon that was very suitable for me. He also tried to win me over in his words, but I politely declined."

Ningfa breathed a sigh of relief.

He was worrying too much.

Although Ning Zhongjiu has an arrogant personality, he does not act without knowing the importance of things.

Ning Zhongjiu has also shined in the past few years. Although his battle record is not as exaggerated as Ning Fa's, several foundation-building cultivators have died at his hands.

He is also quite famous among the cultivators who went on the expedition on the side of the Duanmu family.

So it is normal for him to be favored by Duanmu Pojun.

The reason why Ning Fa was worried about this was that he was afraid that Ning Zhongjiu would really be won over by Duanmu Pojun, and then it would be difficult for him to explain to Duanmu Ling.

Because this would easily be seen as the Ning family betting on Duanmu Ling and Duanmu Pojun.

This behavior may seem safe, but it is actually a taboo and it is easy to end up pleasing neither side.

This is what happened to the Wu family. As a result, they were attacked by Duanmu Ling and finally had to completely turn to Duanmu Pojun.
