Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master

Chapter 294: Chapter 272: What? You want me to primary lymph node Ning Zhuo?!

This was a matter personally negotiated by Meng Kui and Zhu Xuanji and had also received the approval of the three Golden Core Cultivators.

It was an inevitable trend.

In order to squeeze out the Bukong Sect as the third party, the two dominant forces in the Fire Persimmon Immortal City of the Southern Bean Country had made this decision!

Under such a trend, the upper echelons of the Ning Family were mere mantises under the carriage wheel. They had no Golden Core Cultivators to support them internally, only a gathering of Foundation Establishment elites.

Faced with such a terrifying wave, they could only go with the flow, not oppose it futilely like the mantis trying to stop a chariot.

A Family Elder broke the silence, “If only our main branch had dispatched more cultivators to join the Renovation Team initially.”

Everyone’s faces showed embarrassment, as if a boomerang had just flown-to hit them in the face.

Indeed, that was the case.

If initially, the majority of the Renovation Team had been made up of members from the main branch of the Ning Family, or even if it had been entirely made up of them, then the main branch of the Ning Family would be receiving great benefits at this moment!

Academy Elder, “The decision made at that time wasn’t wrong. After all, the prospects of renovating the Five Elements Qi Regulation Art were unclear. In fact, up to now, we have only unearthed the first to sixth levels of the Five Elements Qi Regulation Art.”

Battle Hall Elder, “Who could have anticipated, the emergence of Ning Zhuo, this demonic talent? Who could have foreseen, that the Bukong Sect had already infiltrated and laid out their plans over a decade, forcing the Royal Family and the Meng Family to join hands, conceding future benefits to such an extent?”

The Ning Family Clan Leader slowly spoke, with a hoarse voice, “It seems, our main branch of the Ning Family must actively align with the Lava Fairy Palace, we must send as many cultivators as possible for renovation, and then compete for positions in the Lava Fairy Palace.”

“Otherwise, if we let things develop on their own, the power of our main branch will quickly diminish, becoming weak and unable to recover.”

After saying this, the Clan Leader couldn’t help but show, a strong expression of loss and exhaustion.

As soon as he finished speaking, many Family Elders in the hall agreed.

Battle Hall Elder said, “Worthy of being our Clan Leader, this is a wise response! If that’s the case, then I suggest we must fully court Ning Zhuo.”

“Our main branch of the Ning Family, if wanting to compete for positions in the Lava Fairy Palace, this individual is the most crucial.”

Talisman Hall Elder directly said, “I remember Ning Zhuo hasn’t married or had children yet, he’s only sixteen years old, this is the perfect age for a marriage alliance with our main branch.”

Academy Elder stroked his beard, “Based on my familiarity with Ning Zhuo, I am aware that he has a particular fondness for cultivation, especially for Mechanical Techniques, we can cater to his interests.”

The Ning Family Clan Leader was lost in thought, as if in a dream.

He had never imagined, there would come a day, when he and the many Family Elders would be discussing how to please and court Ning Zhuo!

He had a rather poor impression of Ning Zhuo.

On one hand, it was because his son, the former Young Clan Leader Ning Xiaoren, had been ousted by Ning Zhuo.

On the other hand, Ning Zhuo often displayed, disdain and resistance toward the high levels of the Ning Family and authority, which to the Clan Leader of the Ning Family was an enormous offense.

Ning Family Ancestor Ning Jiufan found Ning Zhuo to be straightforward and adorable, because Ning Jiufan, a distinguished Golden Core Stage Cultivator, did not feel threatened by Ning Zhuo.

The Ning Family Clan Leader was in the Foundation Establishment Stage himself, while Ning Zhuo’s advancement to Foundation Establishment was already a certainty.

Moreover, Ning Zhuo had also set up his own power base in the Black Market, gathering a group of followers.

This action had greatly offended the Clan Leader’s sensibilities, posing a significant challenge and injury to his authority.

But now, the situation compelled the entire main branch of the Ning Family to fully court Ning Zhuo!

All the Family Elders who had once supported and surrounded him shared this sentiment.
