"Why?"
Ning Qi frowned slightly.
He didn't expect that Du Gumo would ask him to leave with Nangong Qushan and Dugu Yun 'er. What was going on?
"The Dugu Residence is in trouble."
Du Gumo said slowly after a moment of silence.
"The Dugu Residence is in trouble?"
Ning Qi looked at Du Gumo indifferently, waiting for him to continue.
"You don't need to know the details. Since you can defeat Dugu Xiangjin with one palm, it means that you have at least a slight chance of leaving with your aunt and Yun 'er. I have already asked Tie Hu to prepare your travel expenses. After leaving Yan Jing, don't stop. Leave the Yan Kingdom and go as far as possible."
Du Gumo said indifferently.
To be able to defeat Dugu Xiangjin with one palm meant that he was at least a top martial artist in the secular world. It was impossible for Du Gumo not to know this, but he said that Ning Qi only had a slight chance of escaping. This was somewhat thought-provoking.
Ning Qi smiled. "The Dugu Residence has provoked a Soul Devourer expert?"
Du Gumo was slightly startled. He looked at Ning Qi without moving his eyes. After a full ten breaths of silence, he said, "You know a Soul Devourer expert?"
After a pause, Du Gumo's eyes flashed with a trace of horror. "Ling Feng, are you also a Soul Devourer expert?"
Ning Qi smiled and didn't answer. Instead, he said indifferently, "If you want me to leave with my aunt and Yun 'er, you have to tell me the details."
"Since you know a Soul Devourer, it doesn't matter if I tell you."
Du Gumo sighed. "Anyway, with the means of that person, the Dugu Family will no longer exist after tonight …"
"Yesterday, Bandit Heng was killed. Have you heard about this?" Du Gumo said slowly. It seemed that he was asking Ning Qi, but he was actually narrating the process. Before Ning Qi could speak, he continued, "Bandit Heng is the ninth prince's man, and I am also the ninth prince's man. From the beginning to the end, everything that Bandit Heng did was done under the ninth prince's command! "Yesterday, the Heng Mountain Bandits went to the Peach Blossom Path to seize an extremely important item. However, the Heng Mountain Bandits died, but he was not killed by Lin Fengxian. Even ten thousand such warriors could not kill the Heng Mountain Bandits. Now, the Ninth Prince suspects that there is a mole among us, and I was the first to discover the appearance of that item.
Based on my understanding of the Ninth Prince over the years, he will definitely send people to the Dugu Residence today to take our lives. "
A hint of surprise flashed in Ning Qi's eyes. This was beyond his expectation. He didn't expect Mount Heng to be a subordinate of the Ninth Prince of Yan Kingdom. In this way, the Ninth Prince was most likely a Level Nine Soul-devouring Expert. Otherwise, how could he command the boss of Mount Heng, who was at Level Eight Soul-devouring Realm?
Furthermore, Du Gumo was actually one of the Ninth Prince's men and had connections with the Heng Mountain Bandits. In that case, didn't the real Nangong Lingfeng … die in the hands of his own people?
"Very surprised, right?" Du Gumo smiled, and a hint of self-mockery flashed in his eyes. "The Dugu Family has already fallen a hundred years ago. I was born of a lowly background, and it was only because the Ninth Prince took a fancy to me that I was able to reach my current position. Back then, your father was demoted by the Emperor because he was investigating the background of the Heng Mountain Bandits.
I found a clue that I shouldn't have known. If I hadn't asked the emperor to demote your father to retire and return to his hometown, your Nangong Family would have died at the hands of the Ninth Prince. "
"Therefore, you shouldn't hate me. For this sake, bring your aunt and Yun 'er away from the Dugu Residence. Leave at least one bloodline for the Dugu Residence!"
Du Gumo stared at Ning Qi, waiting for his response.
"Why do I only need to bring my aunt and Yun 'er away? Don't you still have a son and a daughter?"
Ning Qi asked calmly.
"They are the Ninth Prince's bloodline."
Du Gumo smiled mockingly.
"Uh …"
Ning Qi looked at Du Gumo in shock.
He didn't expect his neighbor, Old Wang, to exist here. More importantly, the person involved knew everything, and yet he was still so calm?
"Don't misunderstand. Xu Qingping has been the Ninth Prince's woman since the beginning."
Du Gumo smiled.
"I see."
Ning Qi smiled and nodded.
"Now that you know everything, can you tell me what grade of Spirit Devourer you are?"
Du Gumo looked at Ning Qi curiously.
He was curious. In just a short span of ten years, the Nangong Family actually had a Spirit Devourer expert?
"Forget it."
Without waiting for Ning Qi's reply, Du Gumo shook his head. "Even if you are a grade nine Spirit Devourer, you are still no match for the Ninth Prince. He is a unique talent in the world, and is already a Spirit Level expert. All these years, he has been hiding in Yan Capital to turn the Yan Kingdom into a sect …"
"Spirit Level …"
Ning Qi's eyes lit up. This way, he didn't have to go to Mount Lan to see how strong the so-called Spirit Level expert was.
"Sir!"
Iron Tiger's voice came from outside.
"Come in!"
Du Gumo's face darkened.
Tie Hu immediately walked into the study and glanced at Ning Qi. Seeing Ning Qi nod his head slightly, he then said in a low voice, "Someone just reported that there were a few suspicious figures at the entrance of our Dugu Residence. Could it be that they are already preparing to make a move?"
Du Gumo's face darkened as he laughed at himself. "What a quick move. They really didn't give me a chance to explain."
Ning Qi also felt that this Ninth Prince was a little overbearing. Perhaps his personality was different from ordinary people. As long as there was a hint of suspicion, he would kill. Such a person would either become a saint or a demon.
"Ling Feng, you can't take her away. However, you are not a member of the Solitary Residence, so you still have a chance to leave. Leave on your own."
Du Gumo looked at Ning Qi and said plainly.
Ning Qi smiled and left without a word.
Iron Tiger looked at Ning Qi's silhouette as his eyes flashed. "Sir, why don't you try? If you can leave, you can at least leave some descendants for the Solitary Family! "
"Iron Tiger, you have been with me since you were young. Even the Ninth Prince doesn't know what you know about these things. Therefore, you also have a chance to leave. Go."
Du Gumo didn't answer Iron Tiger's words. Instead, he waved his hand weakly.
"Even if I die, I want to die in the Solitary Family. Sir, please don't say such things anymore."
Iron Tiger was slightly startled as he laughed.
"Why bother?"
