Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 408 Why don’t you take me as your master?

Ning Fa already had a good relationship with the Cheng family because he saved Cheng Susu.

Later, Cheng Zhirou traded with Ning Fa for several years on the orders of Master Zihua, and the process was always pleasant.

Ning Fa is quite confident that by paying some benefits, he should be able to convince this Master Zihua to support and protect him.

Ning Fa originally preferred to look for Duanmu Ling. After all, over the years, he was still very convinced of the character of this Senior Sister Duanmu.

But in the current situation, Duanmu Ling is seriously injured and it is unknown when he can recover.

And he had a feud with Duanmu Pojun, so it would not be appropriate for him to look for Duanmu Ling again.

That's why Ning Fa planned to pay a visit to True Person Zihua. If he could get her promise, then this matter would be half successful.

Then he would immediately go find Wei Shiqin and ask the family behind her to leave Xudong Trading Company.

Ning Fa sorted out these things in his mind and instantly understood the logic behind them.

He smiled slightly, and then leisurely strolled around the city under the guidance of the mortal boy.

At this time, in a room on the top floor of Tianxiang Tower.

Zhenren Zihua and Cheng Zhirou were in the room at this time.

At the same time, many members of the Cheng family were also in the grand Tianxiang Tower, because this building was the Cheng family's property.

In the room, Cheng Ziyi stood with her hands behind her back, looking out the window.

Her expression was as solemn as water, and she was obviously in a bad mood.

Cheng Zhirou, who had just entered the room, saw her face and felt a little depressed.

"Second Elder, could it be that the injury sustained by the First Elder is not a minor one?"

She asked nervously.

Cheng Ziyi nodded slowly, her expression becoming even gloomier.

“In the battle at Longjingang, although my elder brother severely injured Heihe Zhenren, who ranked fourth among the Golden Core Bishops of the Black Spirit Church, his soul was also traumatized by his counterattack.

If the eldest brother was still at his peak, it wouldn't be a big deal, but it is extremely serious now.

I’m afraid that my eldest brother won’t be able to use his full strength next time. Even so, his remaining life span is estimated to be only twenty years at most, or maybe even less.

This matter is an absolute secret of our Cheng family. Only those in the family who are in the middle stage of foundation building or above are qualified to know it. You must remember not to tell other members of the family, so as not to cause panic."

Cheng Zhirou's pretty face turned pale in an instant, it was obvious that the news was very bad.

Once they lose the Cheng family's great elder, a mid-stage Jindan expert, they will not be able to see anyone in the Cheng family who has the potential to form a Jindan in a short period of time.

Then, for a long time, their Cheng family will only have Cheng Ziyi, an early Jindan cultivator, and the Cheng family's position in the Huayu Sect will be in jeopardy.

"If it weren't for the fact that our Cheng family's development progress was too slow, not only would it be at the bottom among the other families, but the gap was even huge, big brother wouldn't have taken such a risk..."

Cheng Ziyi sighed, and her face became even gloomier.

Cheng Zhirou smiled bitterly and didn't know how to start for a moment.

"How is Ning Fa now? Tell me about the important things that happened to you during this period, especially after he advanced to the middle stage of foundation building."

Cheng Ziyi suddenly changed the subject and asked.

Cheng Zhirou opened her mouth slightly and began to speak in detail.

This took several hours.

But Cheng Ziyi didn't show any impatience and listened attentively.

After listening, she fell into deep thought.

"It is really unexpected that this Junior Brother Ning has advanced to the middle stage in just six years. It seems that even if he advances to the late stage, it is very likely..."

Cheng Ziyi said with a strange look on her face, as if asking, as if talking to herself. "Junior Brother Ning is a high-level alchemist after all, and you, Second Elder, have also seen the second-level elixir he made.

The quality and efficacy are at least 30% higher than other similar elixirs. With the help of a large number of these high-quality elixirs, it is understandable that he broke through to the middle stage so quickly."

Cheng Ziyi's eyes flickered and she remained silent for a moment.

Then she sighed: "It is precisely because of this that he is now quite famous in the Ningfa Sect. As far as I know, several elders of the sect want to take him in as a disciple, and some are even elders from the master-disciple faction. The sect's disciple-recruiting ceremony is about to be held, and he should be in great demand then."

After Cheng Ziyi finished speaking, she suddenly stared at Cheng Zhirou with a burning gaze and asked, "Zhirou, when I meet Ning Fa tonight, I suggest that you two become Taoist couples. Will he agree?"

Cheng Zhirou was startled at first, then smiled bitterly and said, "There shouldn't be even a 10% chance of success."

Seeing Cheng Ziyi frowning, she sighed and said, "Junior Brother Ning should be very clear about my feelings towards him, but he has always kept his distance from me.

Maybe I'm not charming enough, but I feel that it's more likely that he doesn't want to be a Taoist partner with a female cultivator like us who comes from a big family.

Senior Duanmu had tried to introduce him to someone before, and it was Duanmu Qiong, who was very famous in the Duanmu family, but he declined the offer."

Hearing this, Cheng Ziyi's eyes flickered.

……

That night, Ningfa came to visit on time.

"Nephew greets uncle, thank you for your help over the past few years."

Ning Fa said politely with a smile on his face. After all, he had an important request later.

"Junior Brother Ning, you are too polite. The pills you refine are also very helpful to our Cheng family." Cheng Ziyi smiled lightly.

Afterwards, she asked a few polite questions about the Duanmu family's offensive and defensive battle on the Blood Jade Plateau.

Just when Ning Fa was looking for an opportunity to bring up business, Cheng Ziyi suddenly came straight to the point and asked, "Ning, nephew, what do you think of Zhirou? I think you two are a good match, why don't I be your matchmaker and you two can become a Taoist couple. And don't worry, I'm not asking you to marry into our Cheng family."

Looking at Cheng Ziyi with a smile on her face, Ning Fa was shocked.

He pretended to think for a while, then politely declined, "Thank you for your kindness, Uncle Cheng. It should be my great honor to be able to become a Taoist partner with Sister Cheng.

But to be honest, I already have two Taoist partners, so I really don’t have the time to be distracted by others.”

As he spoke, he briefly talked about Meng Ruoqi and Ning Shaohong.

This reason is naturally only secondary.

The main reason is that Ning Fa currently does not want to be deeply bound to a big family like the Cheng family.

Especially since he is still a follower of Duanmu Ling, and the Ning family is now a subsidiary family of the Duanmu family.

Cheng Ziyi was not too surprised, as she had naturally known about this situation for a long time.

She said calmly, "It's okay for a powerful cultivator to have three wives and four concubines. As long as Zhirou is your legal wife, it's fine."

Ning Fa couldn't help but look at Cheng Ziyi in surprise. He really didn't expect that Uncle Cheng could even accept his situation.

It seems that I still underestimated the strength I demonstrated in alchemy and its appeal to the Cheng family.

Ningfa couldn't help but groan inwardly and began to think nervously about finding a suitable reason to refuse.

Cheng Ziyi looked at him carefully, then sighed softly: "It seems that I was abrupt and made things difficult for Junior Brother Ning, so let's not talk about this matter for now."

Hearing this, Ning Fa couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, Cheng Ziyi suddenly said: "To be honest, I am very optimistic about Junior-Nephew Ning, so I want to bring you and Zhirou together.

If you don't want to, I won't force you.

But I have another suggestion.

Why don't you become my disciple and I will accept you as my personal disciple, okay?"
