- Chapter 127 1 (1/2)
Return to Ning City
In the Long Inclination Palace of Sinister Sparrow Sect.
Gui Qiaozi stood at the center of the palace with his hands behind his back. Zhi He and Si Wuxie was sitting inside the palace. Zhi He was holding a purple sand teacup with her delicate hands, enjoying the high-grade spiritual tea, as if she was at her home, absolutely having no sense of nervousness.
On the other hand, Si Wuxie was showing a pair of blank and cold eyes, not her usual naivety, but more of puzzlement.
“Is Ning Fan my enemy or master…? Who am I…?” Her damaged memory was awakening on its own. No one knew about this yet.
At this moment, Ning Fan and Lan Mei walked into the Long Inclination Palace.
“Ning Fan greets sect master.”
“Ah, there’s no need to be so polite Revered Ning…”
Gui Qiaozi looked at Ning Fan intently, but he didn’t call Ning Fan ‘Ning Er’ prompting Ning Fan to switch his smile to a stern expression.
He called Ning Fan ‘Revered Ning’ because he wanted to talk about proper business!
“Dad, why are you so polite to Ning Fan…?” Lan Mai spoke with annoyance, but Gui Qiaozi interrupted her words with a wave and a wry smile.
“Mei Er, just sit on one side for a while. I have things to ask Revered Ning. Revered Ning, come with me to the secret room…”
…
In the secret room of Long Inclination Palace, Gui Qiaozi was studying Ning Fan with his stern eyes.
“If sect master has something to say, please say it out. If sect master has questions to ask, then please ask, Ning Fan will surely answer it truthfully.” Ning Fan clasped his fists. He could read Gui Qiaozi’s intention at first glance.
“Very well! In that case, I will ask you directly. Do you have an ulterior motive in coming to Sinister Sparrow Sect?”
“I have. My motive is the Profound Yin Qi and to fulfil my master’s wish.”
Ning Fan answered, making Gui Qiaozi nod his head, replacing his stern look with a smile.
“Very good! You are honest. You aren’t deceiving me… The Profound Yin Qi is in Dark Sparrow’s Grave. If you have the chance, you may go and acquire it. As for why you need the Profound Yin Qi, I don’t need to know… the second question, are you Black Devil Ning?!”
“Yes… Please allow Ning Fan to ask a question in return, did sect master obtain this information from the divine prediction of the old man of Wu Country?” Ning Fan’s eyes turned grim.
“Sure enough, you are Black Devil Ning… Don’t worry, you are the disciple of Old Man Han. I won’t do you any harm. It’s even impossible for me to spend a huge fortune just to hatch a plot against you. The reason I know about your identity is because…”
“Because of the spy in Extreme Yin Gate?”
“Hehe…you have a peculiar mind…not bad. Yes, that’s the reason.”
Gui Qiaozi seemed contented with Ning Fan’s answer in his second question as well. There was astonishment in his eyes. He was shocked to find that Ning Fan was actually that Fourth Revolution Pill Master that had shaken the whole Yue Country.
Keeping his surprised expression, Gui Qiaozi sighed and asked: “Very well, my third question. This should already have the answer…the extermination of Heaven Separation Sect. It should be the doing of you and Old Man Han, right…? The guts you two have are enormous…”
