"Luofei, wait for me on the airship. I saw an acquaintance and want to go down and have a look." After Ning Cheng saw Lian 'e, he immediately stood up and spoke.
Luofei quickly stood up and spoke, "I'll go with you."
Ning Cheng did not care about it and directly sent a sound transmission to Yang Honghuo, asking Yang Honghuo to come out and guard the airship suspended in the air. He then brought Luofei down from the airship.
"Lian 'e, I really didn't expect to see you here ….." Ning Cheng brought Luofei into Lian' e's shabby thatched cottage and greeted her with joy.
Lian 'e looked up at Ning Cheng in a daze. Her cultivation was simply too low. In the past, she was at Qi Gathering 5th Level, and now she was still at Qi Gathering 5th Level. Moreover, she and Ning Cheng were not very familiar with each other, as such she could not recognise Ning Cheng at all. Then her gaze fell on Ji Luofei, and her eyes flashed with a hint of amazement.
Lian 'e's long black hair had long since disappeared. At this time, not only was her hair dry, but there were also a few scars on her face. His skin was no longer as smooth as before, and his eyes were no longer as bright as before. When Ning Cheng saw this, he secretly sighed in his heart, he was sure that Lian 'e had experienced a lot of hardships, otherwise a cultivator at the Qi Gathering 5th Level, it was impossible for her to be like this.
"I am Ning Cheng, a friend of Stone. Initially, when Stone and I went to the Yi Shui Courtyard to look for you, we took you and Miss Hanyu away from the Yi Shui Courtyard. Afterwards, we separated, and have never seen each other again. "Ning Cheng quickly spoke up.
"You are Big Brother Ning ….." Lian 'e finally recognised Ning Cheng and spoke with a hint of surprise and excitement.
Ning Cheng quickly spoke up, "Yes, I am Ning Cheng, why aren't Stone and Hanyu here?"
When Lian 'e heard Ning Cheng ask about Shitou and Han Yu, her face immediately turned stiff, and tears started flowing down her cheeks, "They ….."
Ning Cheng's heart sank, he knew that Taishu Shi and Liu Han Yu were most likely in some kind of trouble. Before he could continue asking questions, a boy about ten years old rushed in with a hare in his hand. "Mother, I hunted a hare. Mother, why are you crying? Who are they?"
Ning Cheng looked at the little boy and felt a little puzzled in his heart. Did Lian 'e have a child?
"Pinghao, hurry up and greet Uncle Ning. He is your father's best friend." Lian 'e pulled the little boy and spoke.
"You are Uncle Ning? I've often heard from my mother that you sent a bad guy who bullied my mother flying with a kick … "The little boy immediately cried out, his tone full of surprise and joy.
When Ning Cheng saw that this little boy did not have any Spiritual Qi Fluctuations, he immediately knew that he had never cultivated before. The boy's hair was a mess, and his face was like a cat's.
"Big Brother, his name is Taishu Pinghao …"
When Lian 'e spoke out the little boy's name, Ning Cheng immediately knew that this little boy should be Taishu Shi's son.
"Peng" The door to the firewood courtyard was pushed open once again, and a sturdy middle-aged man walked in. "Ling Daughter, a noble has come to the Gong Residence today. Tidy up a bit, you're going to rehearse the dance immediately."
Lian 'e quickly bowed and spoke, "Steward Li, my elder brother is here today, I cannot go over ….."
"You're courting death..." The middle-aged man never thought that Lian 'e would dare to resist today. This kind of thing had never happened before.
As he spoke, the middle-aged man reached out to grab Lian 'e's chest.
Ning Cheng's eyes flashed with a hint of anger. He did not understand the relationship between this person and Lian 'e. But no matter what, he couldn't grab a woman's breasts.
Seeing that the steward's hand was about to grab Lian 'e's chest, Ning Cheng immediately pulled Lian' e back.
The middle-aged man's hand grabbed empty air, causing him to immediately glare at Ning Cheng and speak, "No matter who you are, since you dare to interfere in the affairs of the Gong Residence, then … …"
The middle-aged man's words suddenly stopped, as he saw Ji Luofei's appearance. He had seen a lot of women, and the number of beautiful women in the Gong Residence was even more uncountable. Even he himself had more than a dozen beautiful concubines. Although he had seen a woman standing behind Ning Cheng when he came here, he did not care about it. But when he saw Ji Luofei's appearance, he immediately felt shocked.
In this kind of place, he unexpectedly saw such a beautiful woman.
The steward's anger instantly disappeared. He immediately threw Lian 'e to the side and cupped his fists towards Ning Cheng and spoke, "Our Gong Residence wants this woman, you can name the price ….."
Ning Cheng sneered. Originally, he did not know what the relationship between Lian 'e and this steward was, which was why he did not make a move. Now that this fellow dared to have ideas about Luofei, no matter what their relationship was, Ning Cheng would not let it slide. He raised his hand and shot out two fireballs. These two fireballs instantly fell into the hands of the steward.
"Chi Chi …." A burnt smell came over, causing the steward to scream out in madness. He could only watch helplessly as the fireballs on his arms slowly burned up his palms, and then continued to burn up his forearms.
"Aah …." A shrill scream erupted. The steward frantically slapped the ground, but the flames did not extinguish. Not only did they not extinguish, but they also did not spread. Instead, they continued to slowly burn up his arms. Apart from feeling a terrible pain, he simply could not do anything about it. The strange thing was that this kind of pain could not kill him.
"Senior, please spare my life, please spare my life ….." Finding that the flames on his arms could not be extinguished, the steward knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Ning Cheng looked at Lian 'e and asked, "Who is this person?"
The shocked Lian 'e finally reacted and spoke with a hateful voice, "He is a small steward of the Gong Mansion. Unfortunately, I can't take Pinghao out of here, and can only let him bully me ….."
Ning Cheng immediately understood and spoke to the still screaming steward, "You go back and tell the people from the Gong Mansion that I will come over to collect the debt. Fuck off."
Knowing that Ning Cheng would not help him extinguish the flames, the steward immediately rushed out of the small courtyard, while his shrill screams gradually faded away.
Taishu Pinghao on seeing Ning Cheng burn the steward did not show any fear. Not only that, but his eyes grew brighter as he looked at Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng pulled Ji Luofei and spoke to Lian 'e, "This is my wife, Ji Luofei."
Then he turned to Luofei and introduced her, "Luofei, this is my friend Taishu Shi's wife, Lian 'e."
Lian 'e bowed her head in shame and spoke, "Lian' e greets Sister Luofei."
Ning Cheng took out two medicinal pills and handed them to Ji Luofei, "Luofei, take Lian 'e inside and eat these two medicinal pills. Then change into a new set of clothes and come out."
Ning Cheng immediately understood that Lian 'e had destroyed her appearance. Taishu Shi had disappeared, and she had to live alone with Taishu Shi's son in this kind of place. It must have been a torment.
"Do you know where your father went?" After Lian 'e went inside, Ning Cheng asked Taishu Pinghao in a soft voice.
Taishu Pinghao shook his head, "I don't know, but my mother said that my father would come back here to find us."
Ning Cheng asked some other questions and vaguely understood that the biggest clan in this area was the Gong Clan. A member of the Gong Clan had an extraordinary status in the Blue Flame 4-Star Academy in the Yuan Continent. Lian 'e, along with Taishu Pinghao, had a hard time living here, not to mention cultivation.
"Big Brother ….." When Lian 'e came out again, she had already restored her previous appearance. Although her face still looked a bit pale, her Essence Qi had not suffered any damage. As long as she had enough resources to cultivate, she could still make progress.
"En, Lian 'e, after we separated, what did you encounter?" Ning Cheng asked.
After some time, although Lian 'e was still sobbing, she was able to speak out the reason, "After Big Brother stopped that Xun Shun, Shitou brought me and Han Yu, but we encountered a beast that led the way. Because of that beast, we ended up deviating from our path. By the time we understood it, a few days had already passed since the appointed time with Big Brother.
Shitou immediately brought us to the edge of the Thunder Fall Desert. Shitou was very careful, he had not even reached the edge when he saw the wanted poster for Big Brother. We were afraid that Big Brother would end up being wanted by others and would not be able to deal with him, so we also turned into adventurers and wandered around the edge of the Thunder Fall Desert. In the next few months, there was no news from Big Brother, plus Shitou had already reached the True Condensation Realm, we were ready to enter the Thunder Fall Desert, but at this time, I was pregnant ….. "
Lian 'e lowered her head, Ning Cheng was also helpless, two people who liked each other getting pregnant, he could not do anything about it.
"Later, under the persuasion of Han Yu, we decided to wait until I gave birth to Pinghao before leaving. We had just shown up, when we were immediately targeted. I heard that it was Xun Shun's master, even if Shitou had already reached the True Condensation Realm, the disparity between him and Xun Shun's master was still too far. In order to protect me and Han Yu, Shitou led Xun Shun's master away by himself … … "Lian 'e spoke while sobbing.
Ning Cheng's heart also sank, Xun Shun was not a simple person, he had to spend a lot of effort to kill him, it meant that Xun Shun's master was definitely much more powerful. Taishu Shi led Xun Shun's master away, it seems that it was a disaster.
"After we separated, we were once again chased by others, and finally Han Yu and I were separated. After I gave birth to Pinghao, I took Pinghao to live here. I was looking forward to the day when Shitou would find me, but I did not expect that I would meet Big Brother. I thought that Big Brother had gone to the Hua Continent … … "
Lian 'e finished speaking in one breath, as she felt relieved in her heart. In any case, since Big Brother Ning came, then considering his friendship with Shitou, he would definitely take away Pinghao. As long as Pinghao was fine, she felt relieved.
… …
"Young Master, save me … …" The Steward Li howled miserably as he rushed into a luxurious mansion with two balls of flames.
The few people in the living room immediately stood up in shock, and could not believe their eyes as they looked at the Steward Li, whose arm had been burnt off.
"What happened?" A handsome looking man asked, he could see that the Steward Li's arm was burnt by the True Essence Fire through the Bone Maggots Technique.
"I went to recruit a woman to dance, but she was committing adultery with a man, and I did not say anything about it. I saw that she had a devastatingly beautiful woman with her, I wanted to bring her to the Young Master, but that man immediately laid his hands on me … … "The Steward Li howled as he spoke.
"Humph." The handsome looking man raised his hands and shot out two balls of water towards the arms of the Steward Li.
It would have been better if he had not shot out those two balls of water, but as soon as he shot out those two balls of water, the flames on the arms of the Steward Li seemed to have been poured with oil, and instantly burst out. The raging flames, in just a blink of an eye, surrounded a magnificent mansion.
"Quickly retreat … …" With a scream, all the people in the living room rushed outside.
