Chapter 249 Prince Duan Chaofeng
Because Xu Ning had appeared at the lunch banquet in the Canton Governor Mansion, Wei Xiongjian had an impression of Xu Ning.
He only remembered that Xu Ning had been sitting with Cheng Zengtao, so he didn’t ask about Xu Ning’s identity. “Greetings, Lord Canton Governor.”
Xu Ning responded when he saw Wei Xiongjian staring at him.
“You killed these two?”
Wei Xiongjian looked at Xu Ning curiously.
The news from the prince was that these two guards were both in the third stage of the dao realm. Although they were injured in the process of escaping, their combat power was still at the peak of the origin returnance realm because they were holding secret treasures.
But Xu Ning’s strength was obviously only in the astral qi realm.
“Neither of them was killed by me.”
Xu Ning said, “One of them was seriously injured by me and became a burden, so he was killed by his companion. As for the other person, just when he was about to be captured by me, he severed his own heart meridians.”
Wei Xiongjian smiled when he heard this, understanding the reason.
These two guards of the King Mansion stole the secret treasures that the prince had just asked someone to refine. If they were captured, they would definitely suffer a tragic end.
Killing himself like this saved him a lot of pain.
“Although these two were not killed by you, they were defeated by you.”
Wei Xiongjian said, “These two have stolen the prince’s secret treasure and are wanted by the mansion. Now that you have dealt with the two and recovered the secret treasures, when I report to the mansion, I will definitely write down your contribution.”
“Thank you, Lord Canton Governor.”
Xu Ning didn’t care about this. “I won’t stay here for long.”
Wei Xiongjian said, “I have to go back and deliver this news to the mansion.”
Afterwards, Wei Xiongjian left the villa with the two corpses.
Cheng Jinxian wanted to stay for a while, but after seeing Wei Xiongjian leave, he could only follow.
Not long after the two left, Shao Xun and the other two rushed back.
Their speed was much slower than Wei Xiongjian and Cheng Jinxian.
“Where are Lord Canton Governor and Family Head Cheng?”
When Shao Xun and the other two returned, they discovered that the villa had regained its calm.
They thought that Wei Xiongjian and Cheng Jinxian had come and dealt with the enemies.
“They have already left.”
Cheng Zengtao said. “It’s all thanks to the Canton Governor and Family Head Cheng, otherwise the villa would have been destroyed.”
Tong Li still had some lingering fears.
They had expected Xu Ning and Cheng Zengtao to be seriously injured or even dead, but after seeing the two of them safe and sound, they were relieved that they were able to get help in time.
Cheng Zengtao heard them and knew that the three of them had misunderstood something.
“Those two were both defeated by the Sect Master!”
Cheng Zengtao smiled and said, “Lord Canton Governor and my uncle only took their corpses away.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter hearing what Cheng Zengtao said, Shao Xun and the other two seemed to not believe it.
But they also knew that Cheng Zengtao would never lie about this.
“Those two were injured, and I also have a secret treasure, so I was lucky to be able to deal with them.”
Xu Ning explained calmly.
The three of them looked at each other.
In the past, they had expectations for Xu Ning’s future, but now, Xu Ning proved that his true strength was terrifying. The three of them unconsciously raised Xu Ning’s status in their hearts. Even Ou Wei, who had some doubts about Xu Ning’s identity, was completely convinced now. He no longer had any doubts about Xu Ning.
“Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore.”
Xu Ning said, “The sect is in turmoil tonight, so the disciples and guards must be anxious. Go and comfort them. Those who are injured or killed will be properly compensated.”
“Yes, Sect Master!”
Everyone was convinced.
State Guqing.
Harmony King Mansion.
“Your Highness, the guards who stole the treasures have been killed, and the whereabouts of the two treasures have been found.”
An ordinary middle-aged man reported.
In front of him was a young man wearing a brocade robe and donning a gold crown on his head with a jade belt on his waist.
He had a deep gaze and a dignified aura. His every movement gave people an inexplicable sense of trust.
This person was the prince of Harmony King Mansion, the next heir to the throne, Duan Chaofeng “Oh?”
After Duan Chaofeng heard this, his eyebrows moved, but his expression did not change much.
“Whose hands did they land in?”
Duan Chaofeng asked casually.
It seemed that finding the two secret treasures back was nothing exciting.
“They landed in the hands of Wei Xiongjian from Guanghe Canton.”
The middle-aged man responded.
“Wei Xiongjian…”
Duan Chaofeng nodded gently.
“Wei Xiongjian sent news that the two secret treasures have been prepared and will be returned to the mansion soon.”
The middle-aged man said.
Duan Chaofeng waved his hand. “No need to send them over, let’s go get it.”
“I already wanted to go to the Gudang Mountains to take a look. We can just collect them along the way. After all, I have been in seclusion for several years, and it has been a long time since I wandered around the fief.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
The middle-aged man said respectfully. He was about to leave when he was stopped by Duan Chaofeng.
“By the way, have you heard anything about Mo Lan that woman recently?”.
When Duan Chaofeng mentioned this name, his expression was ugly.
“There hasn’t been any news about Princess Mo Lan recently… She should be focusing on her cultivation, preparing to break through to the seventh stage of the dao realm…”
The middle-aged man carefully observed Duan Chaofeng’s expression when he said this.
He knew very well that his highness disliked Princess Mo Lan very much.
This was because Princess Mo Lan had a fiery personality. She had been favored since she was a child, and she never cared about other people’s feelings.
As the princess of State Luzhi, she often crossed the line and reached out to State Guqing.
Although as an elder, Harmony King ignored Princess Mo Lan’s behavior, as a prince, Duan Chaofeng disliked her behavior.
“Understood, you may leave.”
Duan Chaofeng waved his hand.
“Yes.”
The middle-aged man responded and left.
Half a month later.
Swallow Heron Sect
Over the past half month, there were some changes in the Swallow Heron Sect.
Xu Hujun and Cyan both broke through to the elementary-level of the dao realm in just half a month.
This strengthened the overall strength of the Swallow Heron Sect.
During this period, Xu Ning also absorbed two water and fire attribute true origins again.
These two attribute true origins were still sent over by Shi Chenghao.
Shi Chenghao’s family business was extremely influential in Guanghe Canton.
With this, as long as Xu Ning absorbed another two true origins of the water and fire attribute, he would be able to meet the requirements to advance to the origin returnance realm. With the help of the Wind Smoke Gourd, Xu Ning would be comparable to a core materialization realm master.
With this kind of strength, he would be qualified to be a sect master going by the standards of all the sects in State Wansheng
Back mountain.
“Your Tidal Fist has improved greatly.”
Xu Ning commented on Cheng Xiu. Today was the day Xu Ning would teach Cheng Xiu martial arts.
“Practice diligently. In half a month, you will reach the first level of Tidal Fist.”
Xu Ning said, “At that time, I will teach you a void realm secret scroll. From then, you can try to break through to the void realm.”
“Thank you, Master.”
After hearing Xu Ning’s encouragement and promises, Cheng Xiu was invigorated and quickly said.
Ever since he became the disciple of the Sect Master, Cheng Xiu’s status among the ten disciples had risen to the top. Cheng Xiu cherished this rare opportunity. Thus, he practiced hard day and night. With the help of a lot of resources and Xu Ning’s support, Cheng Xiu improved quickly. “Okay, go back and think about it. You have to think about the advice I gave you today.”
Xu Ning waved his hand.
“Yes, Master.”
Cheng Xiu left the place full of hope.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Sect Master.”
After a while, Cheng Zengtao came. “Sect Master, I heard that Harmony Prince has arrived at Canton Governor Manor today. Lord Wei and all the family heads in Guanghe Canton are accompanying him.”
Cheng Zengtao brought news. “The prince is here?”
Xu Ning was indeed curious about the people of the royal family.
After all, the Duan Royal Family was the top ruler of State Wansheng.
“Should we go and get acquainted?”
Cheng Zengtao seemed a little eager. “After all, those two were defeated by you, and the secret treasures were also taken back by you.”
“No need.”
Xu Ning was not concerned about this. “It’s just two secret treasures. Even if the prince knows that we took them back, he may not care.”
Cheng Zengtao saw that Xu Ning didn’t have any thoughts, so he stopped talking.
“Sect Master, now that you are about to break through to the origin returnance realm and the sect is on the right track, should we recruit more disciples?”
Cheng Zengtao changed the topic. “There are many suitable teenagers in the nearby villages.”
“Let’s wait.”
Xu Ning refused. “No need to rush.” “Understood.”
Cheng Zengtao was not discouraged by Xu Ning’s rejection.
He then discussed his other thoughts with Xu Ning
For the development of the Swallow Heron Sect, Cheng Zengtao had truly put in a lot of effort.
…
Canton Governor Manor.
After dealing with the people accompanying him, Wei Xiongjian accompanied Duan Chaofeng alone.
“Your Highness, these are your secret treasures.”
Now that there was no one else, Wei Xiongjian took out the jade crystal and the azure crystal with both hands.
“So these are the two secret treasures forged by Master Wei…”
Although they were his secret treasure, this was the first time Duan Chaofeng had seen them.
The two secret treasures were stolen by the two guards before they could be sent to Duan Chaofeng.
“You have done well.”
Duan Chaofeng did not drip his blood directly to refine them, instead he put it away.
“How did these two fall into your hands?”
Duan Chaofeng asked casually as he walked.
Wei Xiongjian followed behind him and replied, “When the two thieves were nearby, they seemed to have broken into a villa on the outskirts in order to plunder resources. And in the villa, they were captured by the owner over there.”
“Interesting, accidentally falling into the hands of a core materialization realm master and above, what a coincidence…”
Duan Chaofeng smiled.
When Wei Xiongjian heard this, he explained, “Your Highness, the one who captured the two was not an existence above the core materialization realm, but an astral qi realm master.”
“An astral qi realm master?”
A look of curiosity appeared on Duan Chaofeng’s face.
