Nangong > Nan Gong
Nan Wei had already been waiting in the outer hall of Dan Palace.
As a matter of fact, after taking the Profound Spirit Pill, he only spent nine days to break through to the Harmonious Spirit realm. This incident had shaken quite a lot of people in Sinister Sparrow Sect.
The current Nan Wei was wearing a green robe, and was sitting on a rattan chair. He now had a composed bearing that was a lot better than before, somewhat like his father’s.
After breaking through to the Harmonious Spirit realm, a youthful pride was stirred up from his inside. Today, in Sinister Sparrow Sect, he was regarded as one of the first few great experts amongst the youths. Therefore, he wanted to know how much gap was between him and the young master—the number one expert below the Gold Core realm!
While he was waiting strenuously in the hall, Ning Fan and Xue Qing finally came out from the inner hall.
As Ning Fan was walking nonchalantly towards him, his eyes lit up and he slightly released some of his Qi to match with Ning Fan’s. But immediately, the Qi that he released disappeared in Ning Fan’s invisible aura.
It was only a single attempt and all of his confidence were crumbled, making him smile wryly.
I’m no way near Young Master’s ability. The gap is just too wide!
He shook off the thoughts, stood up and greeted Ning Fan with cupped fists. “Nan Wei greets Young Master. Thank you Young Master for giving the pill to Nan Wei!”
Ning Fan could naturally sense Nan Wei’s probing just now, but that didn’t concern him. Instead, he was very satisfied with Nan Wei’s stable Harmonious Spirit Qi.
“Eh? You have broken through to the Harmonious Spirit realm? Not bad. Your Qi is also very stable. There’s no superficiality in your cultivation base after consuming the pill. It seems like you have been practicing hard during these past few days. Very good. In that case, I don’t have to worry about the task that I’m going to entrust to you now. Take this batch of pills and magical treasures back to Ning City and pass them to your dad.”
Ning Fan waved his hand, taking out a snowy-white storage pouch and tossed it to Nan Wei.
Inside the storage pouch were countless of pill bottles filled with various kind of pills and magical treasures. There were also a few lines of spirit sense energy surrounding the storage pouch.
What surprised Nan Wei was that there was a sword intent which he had never felt before within the spirit sense.
Apart from all those things, there was also a letter for Nan Gong inside the storage pouch, explaining how he should distribute the pills and train the Three Black Demon Guards and the systematic planning for the other three general’s cultivation.
If it wasn’t because of the Bone Sovereign trying to take his life, Ning Fan would’ve personally returned to Ning City.
Currently, with Bone Sovereign’s eyes watching them, he would certainly be tracked, putting Ning City in jeopardy which he couldn’t afford to do. Thus, he needed Nan Wei to make this trip for him.
Nan Wei naturally wouldn’t dare refuse the young master’s order. Immediately, he requested a Departure Order from the sect and headed for Ning City.
After Nan Wei left, Xue Qing was still standing in Dan Palace. His face had an incomprehensible and slightly worried look.
He could tell it from his sense of smell that the storage pouch taken by Nan Wei contained some terrifying pills which were concocted by Ning Fan in the concoction room.
This was the first time that he saw Ning Fan spend so extravagantly, which made him wonder why.
Ning Fan was cautious by nature. So why would he allow an early Harmonious Spirit expert deliver so many pills to Ning City?
Anyone should know that one had to travel some routes where numerous bandits appear from Sinister Sparrow Sect to Ning City. Each and every one of those bandits were outlaws that were not afraid of death. Once they found out Nan Wei was carrying a huge number of pills, they would kill him and seize the treasures.
Moreover, the distance between Sinister Sparrow Sect and Ning City almost a thousand miles. So why would Ning Fan not go there by himself? It would only take less than a few days’ time anyway.
“Master, was it not too rash to let Nan Wei deliver those pills to Ning City? It isn’t a safe trip at all. He will encounter numerous ‘bandits’ along the way. There are even Gold Core old experts who were working with the bandits using aliases,” said Xue Qing.
Those bandits were rogue cultivators who specifically kill people to rob their fortune.
A mere Nan Wei wouldn’t be capable enough to deal with all those sneaky bandits.
Ning Fan didn’t provide further explanation to Xue Qing’s concerns, but just said a faint sentence.
“If those bandits dare to rob my pills, they will die…”
Ning Fan said with a smile, however, Xue Qing could feel a fierce killing intent from it.
After all, Ning Fan had planted a few lines of sword intent on the storage pouch.
