Ji Tianxing didn't need to look to know that it was Ning Qinggang who did it.
In fact, he had expected it.
After all, he and Duanmu Gongzi had just walked to the square, and Ning Qinggang was still in the hall.
"Swoosh!"
A blue light flashed.
Ning Qinggang flew to the square and came to Ji Tianxing and Duanmu Gongzi.
Duanmu Gongzi was unharmed.
But he was wrapped in the icy light. Not only did his killing intent and anger disappear, but he also calmed down quickly.
After two short breaths, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Then, the icy blue light dissipated.
Ning Qinggang waved his hand, and two silver-armored guards came to listen to his orders.
"Send Duanmu Gongzi back to the guest room and let him rest. No one is to disturb him."
The two silver-armored guards quickly carried Duanmu Gongzi back to the Bailan Yard.
Only Ji Tianxing and Ning Qinggang were left in the square.
Ning Qinggang looked at him deeply, then turned and walked to the Pine Yard.
"Mister Tianxing, I want to talk to you."
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and followed him back to the Pine Yard. They went to the study to talk.
The two sat down in the study.
The guards at the door were dismissed by Ning Qinggang.
The maids who came to serve tea were also sent away.
The people around the study left, and he and Ji Tianxing were alone.
They wouldn't be disturbed, and it was impossible for anyone to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Ning Qinggang looked at Ji Tianxing with shining eyes and said earnestly, "Mister Tianxing, although this is the first time I've seen you, I've heard about your deeds from Tianlong.
Besides, I also know about what happened in Tianfeng County after you left Qingshan City. "
Ning Qinggang directly stated that he knew about Ji Tianxing's deeds and his approximate strength.
Thus, the two spoke frankly and avoided beating around the bush.
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said, "I was thinking that the Ning Family wouldn't dare to contact me after causing such a big commotion in Tianfeng County.
Now it seems that I worried too much. "
Ning Qinggang nodded and said calmly, "Not to mention that you killed a princess, even if you annihilated a sect, the Ning Family can handle it.
These are all small matters. Only a few forces know about it. The nobles and royalty in the capital don't even pay much attention. "
Ji Tianxing smiled and said, "In that case, what you want to talk about should be about Mister Duanmu Gongzi and Miss Siyuan?"
Ning Qinggang nodded again, he said, "The Second Prince's identity is special to be loved and cared for since he was a child, so he is inevitably a bit to be a bit arrogant.
But everyone will not to's't to be to to ''s's.
In particular, never mention his father in front of him in the future.
.. that's to his To't to's to his.
Tonight, I will appease his anger and help you suppress this matter.
But I won't be able to help you in the future. "
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "So, Mister Duanmu Gongzi's father seems to have some secret story?"
Ning Qinggang nodded and said, "Yes, this is a royal secret, so I can't reveal it.
But you have to know that his father is the First Prince.
He sacrificed himself for the king two hundred years ago. "
Ji Tianxing was startled, then nodded and said, "I see."
This was the reason. Everything was clear now.
After a moment of silence, he asked again, "Then Miss Siyuan's aunt, Consort Ning …".
Ning Qinggang's expression softened at the mention of Consort Ning. He smiled and said, "She's my sister, the Third Prince's wife."
Ji Tianxing immediately understood. No wonder Ning Qinggang could be conferred the title of Viscount by the king when he accompanied Qi Tianlong to the capital.
Moreover, the king's imperial envoy secretly helped Qi Tianlong become the Lord of Qingshan City.
It turned out that they were all on the Third Prince's side.
It was easier to do things with someone at the top.
Ji Tianxing was thinking when Ning Qinggang said, "Forget it. Let's not talk about these things.
I roughly understand that you're a free person who doesn't like to be restrained.
So, you can come to the Ning Family as a guest and don't need to be tainted by the Ning Family's karma.
I've also used my connections and sent people to investigate the matter that you asked Siyuan to help you with.
Now that I have some clues, I can give you an explanation. "
Then, Ning Qinggang took out a dark gold jade slip from his spatial ring and handed it to Ji Tianxing.
"There's the information you want in here. Although it's not detailed enough and many things can't be confirmed.
However, this is already the best that I can find. "
Then, he got up and left.
"Thank you." Ji Tianxing thanked him and saw him out of the study.
After Ning Qinggang left, Ji Tianxing picked up the dark gold jade slip and used his divine sense to check its contents.
There was a lot of information in the jade slip, and it was very messy.
The most complete thing was a simple map of the Divine Realm.
Half of this huge flat map was the ocean. It was divided into more than a dozen large sea regions by a few continents of different sizes.
There was a huge continent in the upper left corner of the map. It was the Boundless Heaven Continent.
The map of the Boundless Heaven Continent was more detailed. It clearly marked hundreds of regions, as well as the empires and factions in many regions.
Ji Tianxing easily found the locations of the Great Yan Empire, Bloodfire Divine Kingdom, and Tianxue County at the northernmost tip of the continent.
Of course, the famous mountains and forbidden areas in each region were also marked and annotated.
Ji Tianxing understood that just this detailed map of the Boundless Heaven Continent was not something that ordinary people could get.
This map was priceless. Even if the price was tens of millions of divine stones, there would be people who would buy it.
His gaze left the Boundless Heaven Continent and looked at the upper right corner of the map.
It was also a huge continent. The area was similar to the Boundless Heaven Continent, but the shape was different.
And this continent's map appeared very crude.
It only drew a blurry diagram and marked the words "Qiankun Continent."
Apart from this, what regions, what factions, and terrain this continent had, it was all absent.
Even "Qiankun Continent" these four words had a question mark behind it.
It indicated that this name was uncertain.
Ji Tianxing looked at the lower left and lower right corners of the map again.
Similarly, it was two huge continents. Only the rough outlines were drawn, and there was not even a name.
Finally, Ji Tianxing looked at the middle of the map.
Between the four continents was a vast ocean.
In the middle of the ocean, there was a very small piece of land.
Compared to the Boundless Heaven Continent, this piece of land was 50 times smaller, only equivalent to two regions.
But this piece of land without a name was marked in bright red.
Two eye-catching large words were written on it.
Forbidden area!
Ji Tianxing immediately frowned, remembering this piece of land.
He was very clear that the meaning of this forbidden area was different from those forbidden areas on the Boundless Heaven Continent.
Ordinary forbidden areas were just some dangerous special regions.
Either the environment was vile, or there were powerhouses entrenched, or the geographical environment was special.
However, divine kings who were powerful enough could still enter and leave at will, coming and going freely.
But that forbidden area in the middle of the map absolutely did not mean this.
It most likely meant that it was an absolutely forbidden area to enter!
There were great dangers and secrets!
