Chapter 195: Ning Wuji’s Thoughts (1/2)

Due to the loud voice, Gao Fei’s thrust was no longer able to move forward. Following that, a shadow flew out from the forest. However, he flew out without the use of a flying sword.

“City Lord Ning!” When the Gao brothers saw who it was, they were shocked. It turned out that the person was Ningshui City’s City Lord, Ning Wuji.

“I don’t know who you people are, but today, they must not die under your hands,” Ning Wuji stood in front of them and said to the Gao brothers.

“City Lord Ning, why is this so?” Gao Fei was puzzled. It was known to those who had stayed in Ningshui City for a period of time that the relationship between Ning Wuji and Kunlun Sect was not very good. It was unlikely for them to become enemies, but they still did not have any interaction with each other. But now that he actually came out personally to save Kunlun’s people, it was truly too unexpected.

“No reason. But today, you are not allowed to kill them!” Ning Wuji did not bother to explain himself.

“This…fine. Since City Lord Ning has spoken, then we will leave first,” Gao Fei knew that it was impossible for him to kill Kunlun’s people to seize their items today. Even though they had no idea why Ning Wuji would personally show up to help the Kunlun cultivators, they were still able to understand from the subtle hints in his speech. They could kill these Kunlun cultivators, but it could not be done today. However, Gao Fei also knew that it would be extremely hard for him to find such an opportunity again. Although it was a pity, he still had to withdraw. The status of the person who spoke was not only for display, but he truly had the strength to back his words up.

All the City Lords in the Cultivation World would at least have a cultivation in the Golden Core Realm. Therefore, Ning Wuji’s strength might not be very formidable among the other City Lords, but to mortals and most cultivators, his Golden Core Realm late stage cultivation could still be a deterrence. Also, the Gao brothers were only in Foundation Establishment Realm middle stage and initial stage. Even if all the Foundation Establishment Realm experts were in their best condition and optimal state, they would not be able to endure an attack from a Golden Core Realm late stage expert. It could clearly show how big of a difference was in their strength.

In their opinion, Cheng Yu’s strength was very strong, but that was only true when comparing it with the other Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators. Thus, if he were to confront a Golden Core Realm late stage cultivator, he would not stand a chance. The Gao brothers looked at each other and took out their flying swords as they flew off. When Ku Shou saw the two of them had left, he sighed in relief. He looked at Ning Wuji gratefully and said, ”Thank you, City Lord Ning, for saving us from this predicament. After a period of time, we will definitely pay you a visit to give our thanks.”

“No need. I will set up a restriction around you guys. All of you should just take a rest and quickly return to Kunlun,” Ning Wuji spoke as his hand intertwined to produce a formation imprint while he recited the chant to activate it. These Kunlun cultivators had been covered up by transparent glass while several violet rays circulated on top of them while flickering. After a while, it disappeared into thin air. Ning Wuji did not stay for long as he flew and left.

Ku Shou saw Ning Wuji had left and with the restriction protecting everyone, his heart was finally at ease. He also closed his eyes and started to recover from his injuries.

“Big Brother, this time was really a pity! I never expected that two of our targets would actually slip away like that,” Gao Yuan said dispiritedly. After flying for a certain distance, the Gao brothers landed on the ground and started walking.

“That’s right. However, we don’t have a choice. Who could have foreseen City Lord Ning suddenly appearing here? Furthermore, as someone who has never been in good relations with Kunlun, he unexpectedly helped them?” Gao Fei also felt very regretful about this incident. Ning Wuji had said that they could kill all these Kunlun people in the future, but would they have such a opportunity again?

Usually, even if both of them joined hands, they were still unable to defeat a Foundation Establishment Realm late stage cultivator, let alone four of them. If they had killed all these Kunlun cultivators, not only would they had earned a big harvest, Kunlun people might think that they were all killed by that person…

“Aiya!” When Gao Fei thought to this point, he patted on his head, as if he had suddenly comprehended something.

“Big Brother, what’s wrong?” Gao Yuan asked confusedly.

“You say, if we had killed all those Kunlun cultivators, who would Kunlun suspect?” Gao Fei asked.

“Of course they would suspect that person. They had sent out so many people to slaughter that person. In the end, they had gone, but never returned. How could others possibly think of us being the culprit?” Gao Yuan was not stupid as he spoke distinctly.

“That’s right! Once they all die, others would just think that it was done by that person. But now that City Lord Ning prevented us from killing those Kunlun cultivators, doesn’t this show that he didn’t want that person to be the scapegoat?” Gao Fei voiced out his thoughts.

“Big Brother, so you are saying City Lord Ning and that person is together? If it’s like that, wouldn’t it be better for them if City Lord Ning were to kill them? Why did he still want to leave behind a calamity?” Gao Yuan asked puzzledly.

“Er…they might not necessarily be together. Perhaps, they were only acquainted with each other. Hence, City Lord Ning did not wish to let us kill the Kunlun cultivators using someone else’s knife,” Gao Fei was also very confused.

“The possibility of it was very high if things were to be put this way. But we also saw Miss Ning Wushuang over there. It seemed like Miss Ning Wushuang also wanted to kill that person? Doesn’t everything seem a bit too weird?” Gao Yuan recalled the graceful figure of Ning Wushuang as he turned despondent. It seemed like in the vicinity of Ningshui City, Ning Wushuang’s admirers could be seen everywhere.
