Chapter 164: Fixing the Storm
Ning Xiaoshan's expression quickly calmed down, he glanced at the people present, quietly picked up the wine in his hand, and slowly tasted it.
"What should I do, master?" the person who came to deliver the message looked obviously a little flustered, such a big matter was far from being able to handle it.
Since the establishment of Wind and Snow City, I have never heard of anyone who can break through from Peakless Mountain. It doesn't look like there is a large-scale war with the Ning family, is it just that someone broke in and made trouble?
I'm afraid that even the head of the family can't handle such a matter on his own, and the most important thing at the moment should be to immediately gather the elders to discuss countermeasures and immediately arrest the infiltrated person.
"It's just that the guests come to visit, and they are received according to the normal etiquette. Ning Xiaoshan replied a little impatiently, as if he was just treating a trivial matter.
"Yes, the slave and maid have stepped back. The man was stunned, and immediately retreated, and he did not dare to look at the others, so he bypassed the crowd and hurried downstairs.
got such a vague answer, that person really didn't know whether to impose martial law in the whole city with great fanfare, whether it was important to maintain the face of the Ning family, or was it more important to eliminate hidden dangers?
Hurriedly going downstairs, the steward immediately ran towards Commander Mo, and at this time, only the other party could make up his mind.
Everyone's eyes were still on Ning Yi, who was amazing, but they all noticed the change in Ning Xiaoshan's expression, and they couldn't help but have suspicion in their hearts. At this juncture, it's best not to have anything big enough to turn the situation around.
Regarding winning the marriage object of the Ning family, the eight families have been preparing for too long, and they definitely can't fall short.
Yu'er panicked, and the young lady said this, there was no room for maneuver, and the situation became so stiff. At that time, no matter which house the young lady enters, life will not be too easy.
The head of the house will always change, and when the time comes, the head of the house will be replaced by someone else, what can the young lady rely on? In the courtyard of the deep palace, if you say something unpleasant, no one may know whether you are dead or alive. The open and secret battles in the other eight families are probably not inferior to the Ning family, and there are inexplicable deaths every day.
Ning Yi didn't care about anyone's reaction, anyway, she had already made up her mind and had no scruples.
No one spoke in the room, and there was a dense stream of discussion and admiration downstairs, as if it were a burning fire, which burned the faces of the elders more and more red, and even the snort was about to erupt into flames.
Finally, the Ning family was so angry that they couldn't help but reprimand angrily.
"You little woman is ignorant and unreasonable! The old man asked you, do you have the surname Ning? Have you thought about how you have come over the past 20 years? Do you know how much financial and material resources the Ning family has spent on you? Is it just to support an ancestor? Heh! My Ning family has no shortage of ancestors! That is, the Ning family, should be the Ning family!"
"What do you mean you don't like? It's ridiculous! Don't be too presumptuous! You don't know how high the sky is! Even if you are the daughter of the head of the family, I can still ask the Ning family law to teach you a lesson! Let you understand some of the rules of the Ning family! The Ning family has raised you for 20 years, and you have raised such an ignorant and unreasonable little woman?!"
"You see, you're not a little girl anymore, and this isn't the place for you to make a temperament. Everything must be considered for the sake of the overall situation, don't really become a narrow-minded woman and lose the face of my Ning family. β
The people of the other eight families all kept their mouths shut at this time, did not interject, did not have the slightest intention of reconciling, and sat back to watch the Ning family elder reprimand Ning Yi, just waiting for Ning Xiaoshan to speak, to see what kind of attitude he had.
All the procedures have been completed, how can the Ning family postpone the matter of marrying a daughter?
Ning Xiaoshan was unaware of the elder's reprimand for his daughter, and still poured himself a drink, his eyes fell downstairs, looking at the audience imperceptibly.
There were no less than a few thousand people densely packed together, all of whom were included in Ning Xiaoshan's eyes, and filtered out one by one until they found the one he wanted.
"It's you?!"
Ning Xiaoshan's gaze suddenly froze, and a sharp black knife appeared in his field of vision.
Wang Shi, who was looking at the stargazing tower, seemed to notice something, and suddenly squinted, and a majestic middle-aged man appeared in his field of vision, and he clearly knew that the other party was looking at him.
There are obviously countless people here, but the two of them are like wild wolves smelling wild wolves, and they lock on to each other at first sight.
The eyes of the two men met, as if the blade was brushing against the blade, and there was no sound, and I don't know who broke whose blade. In this kind of silent contest, only the parties know the winner or loser.
"I think that person is the one who trespassed into my Ning house without permission. Being able to break through the big array on Wufeng Mountain, General Mo couldn't stop you, and this spirit of going straight into my Ning family, it just so happens that I don't know you, so it can only be you. β
Discovering Wang Shi, Ning Xiaoshan's heart was slightly settled, and he drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
The head of the family is the one who can control this family. Now that Ning Xiaoshan is completely sure, he will firmly control this family, and no one will be able to stir up a storm.
Ning Yi stood up, glanced at the people present, and then looked at the elders and her father, she suddenly smiled dismally, and said: "Father, you gave me twenty years of life in the Ning family, and I will pay you back today, and I and the Ning family do not owe each other." β
As he spoke, Ning Yi took out a dagger and stabbed it towards his heart, and at the same time, the meridians were retrograde, which could make him die instantly.
Yu'er was shocked, Huo Ran stood up, and immediately rushed to Ning Yi's side, directly sealing the space beside him.
Holding the dagger in his right hand, the Spirit Rhino Stone in Ning Yi's left hand slipped and fell on the wooden board, making a crisp sound, and the crack on it became a little bigger.
The dagger in his hand was just a little bit of skin on his neck, and he couldn't stab it anymore. All of his spiritual power was also blocked, and he didn't cause substantial damage at all.
Even the suicide was not completed, Ning Yi's face turned pale, as if he had lost his soul, and he stood in place in a daze. Her fate has been firmly controlled by others, and she cannot change it no matter what.
For a long time, Ning Yi has been tortured. She simply doesn't have the strength to live anymore now, not to mention that she has to make a reluctant choice under the persecution of the eight families and her father.
People who are desperate will think that death is a relief.
Yu'er hurriedly snatched the knife from Ning Yi's hand, and her face was much paler than that of the young lady. She really didn't expect Miss to do such a stupid thing, if it weren't for her higher realm than Miss, I don't know what the result would be.
Everyone was stunned again, and there were more questions in their hearts, not knowing what kind of drama the Ning family father and daughter were singing.
Ning Xiaoshan has obviously made a big concession, marrying this daughter means ceding a large part of the benefits, which is simply beyond the original expectations. How could he sit on the ground and raise the price again at this time?"
"It's already this time, what's the point of making such a fuss again? Is it really just that this eldest lady is spoiled and has become an idiot?"
"Is the Ning family shameless? I am afraid that this year's marriage will be ridiculed for several years. β
The truth that too many words must be lost, everyone is still clear, and naturally quietly waits for the following. Such housework still needs to be handled by the Ning family themselves.
Ning Xiaoshan watched all this happen very calmly, as if he didn't care about Ning Yi's life and death, and said indifferently: "It's true that you are my daughter, and you will become someone's wife in the future, and you will become the mother of your children." Do you not live without these people? live by your father now, by your husband in the future, and by your children? You've lived on someone else all your life, do you remember what your name was?"
Men in the world are ridiculous, they want their wives to be free and independent, and they want to hold each other firmly in the palm of their hands, and women in the world are also ridiculous, they want to be able to do anything freely and independently, and they want to find someone to rely on for life.
A free person never carries anything on his back.
Ning Yiyi is the only meaning. Only by living as you are will be the only one in this world.
As a father, Ning Xiaoshan naturally hopes that his daughter can be carefree under his care, but he hopes that his daughter can become a truly independent and free person and become a real one. Otherwise, this life is really worthless and meaningless.
It's a pity that like most women, Ning Yi is also extremely soft and needs to be wrapped firmly to survive. But he also said conclusively that this was his helpless choice, but he was too soft.
Ning Yi looked at his father in a daze, and suddenly understood how naΓ―ve and weak he was.
Not to mention a 20-year-old youth, even if he is an old man who has lived to be 200 years old, can he really do everything well if he has seen through the human feelings and sophistication in this world? Even Ning Yi, who was able to make the "Ten Strategies Theory" when he was a child, fell into the same strange circle as an ordinary woman after all.
Fortunately, Ning Yi still has a father, and Ning Xiaoshan has been watching his daughter all the time.
Of course, everyone can smell different meanings from these few words, and they made such a big move, but Ning Xiaoshan wanted to teach his daughter a lesson?
So, after the class, will the people who are being treated as monkeys be able to leave? How will this marriage end?
The elder in charge of the eight families also had a displeased look on his face at this time, and asked aggressively: "Master Ning, this matter has been three days, and at this time, I don't know what to say?"
"That's right, Master Ning, it's been almost ten years since we came to Wind Snow City, so we have to give an explanation to the family. It's dragged like this, don't let people think that we were detained by Blizzard, hahahaha......"
"Haha, the head of the Ning family won't have three exam questions, right? That's really a strange thing I've never heard of, hahahaha......"
With guns and sticks, these old and immortal people can still speak for three days and three nights, and they will definitely not be the same. That's kind of polite, otherwise they're really going to tear their faces.
If you don't marry with the Ning family, the other eight families can also marry. When the time comes, the same hatred and hatred will isolate the Ning family, and the life of the Ning family will definitely not be much better.
Ning Xiaoshan glanced at everyone, raised his wine glass, and said loudly: "Everyone, drink me a glass of Yan wine, it's not too late to listen to me!"
Everyone didn't know what to do, but they all raised their wine glasses and drank a glass of wine with a cold snort, but it was up to Ning Xiaoshan to see how it ended.
"I am strong in wine, and I am strong in people. The virtuous nephews showed their might in my Ning family, which naturally opened the eyes of my Ning family. Presumably, my Yandi talent must also be eager to try, unwilling to be left behind. β
The Huo family laughed, took the case, and said, "Since the head of the Ning family has said so, then we are naturally willing to learn from the children of the Ning family." β
Although this person looks very bold, he is actually as careful as a hair. There is a big gap between the "Yandi Talent" and the "Children of the Ning Family", and at least the Great Commander will be excluded.
If it were a competition, except for Mo Jiang, these people would naturally not be afraid of anyone, but they were afraid that it would be the Ning family who would lose face at that time.
All the elders were old foxes, and they quickly pondered Ning Xiaoshan's intentions, but they couldn't taste it. As long as the people in their family are strong enough, there will be no problems.
Not only in the middle region, but in the world, how many people can come out of these sixteen or so?
"Hmph! Ning Xiaoshan wanted to kill our prestige, but in the end he just lifted a stone and shot himself in the foot!"
Ning Xiaoshan smiled indifferently and said, "When the time comes, I hope that all the virtuous nephews will be careful, don't hurt the people of my Wind and Snow City." If Mo Jiang doesn't go to patrol the city, maybe he can learn a few tricks from everyone. β
Ning Xiaoshan naturally saw the other party's thoughts thoroughly, and if he directly picked it out, things would become much simpler.
"I have heard of the prestige of the great commander for a long time, and it is a pity that I can't meet him today. However, presumably there is also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Wind and Snow City, and it will be taught and understood. β
Saying that, a member of the Feng family in Leizhou flew out of the stargazing tower, landed on the platform, and said loudly to the audience: "I have heard the prestige of Yandi for a long time, although we are here for marriage today, we also want to understand the talent of Yandi!"
There was still a small discussion of the crowd just now, but suddenly it was completely quiet, and he looked at the person on the stage in a daze. Such a sudden change is really a bit unresponsive.
This was obviously a provocation, and many people with strong blood and strength turned a little red. However, it was not that they had not seen the strength of the other party before, and if they rushed forward rashly, they were afraid that they would lose very badly.
Feng Wen glanced at everyone, showing a kind smile, in fact, he didn't care about these people at all in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that the Ning family hadn't had a strong genius in the past hundred years and had shown a declining trend, why bother to get married? Ning Xiaoshan, the only one with some talent back then, was also firmly trapped in the position of the head of the family, so who else in the Ning family could lead the younger generation to compete with the eight families in the Central Domain?
That's really a joke! Do you want an outsider to shield the Ning family from the wind and rain?
After a moment of silence, someone finally stepped up.
"I'll get it!"
Suddenly, a person jumped into the stands, with endless immortal energy on his body, obviously he was also a strong man who had stepped into the human fairyland. Even if he was defeated, he proved his courage and not be too ashamed.
"Please!"
The man immediately struck, the long sword was like a rainbow, the immortal power was flying, and the momentum was extremely amazing.
Feng Wen flicked his fingers, and a piece of immortal power was pulled into a sword-like shape, and after shaking rapidly in front of him for a moment, it struck out in an instant, directly cutting off the opponent's long sword at an incredible speed!
Bang!
The immortal power sword went straight to the throat of the Ning family's disciple, forcing it to keep retreating.
The man didn't expect that he would be defeated so quickly, and in a panic, he was immediately forced into a desperate situation, and after a few hasty resistances, his hair fell to the ground in a mess.
"I conceded. After Feng Wen forced him to be extremely embarrassed, he politely helped the other party up.
It's too fast! The process of fighting is too fast! The sixteen people didn't notice anything when they fought before, but now they know how strong the other party really is.
In the same realm, these people are simply crushing others!
The crowd under the stands fell silent for a moment, and people's eyes even lowered.
Wang Shi withdrew his gaze from the stargazing tower and fell on Feng Wen, expecting that this should be one of the sixteen people from the eight families who came to propose marriage.
After the previous eye exchange with Ning Xiaoshan, Wang Shi sensed Ning Yi's breath, which was on that stargazing tower.
It's already so close, there's nothing to worry about anymore.
After a moment of panic, Wang Shi became extraordinarily calm, and a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth.
"Is there no one?" After Feng Wen defeated the three of them with lightning speed one after another, no one took the stage, and the crowd turned from quiet to dead silence.
"Wufeng Mountain is the first peak in the world, the scenery is really different!" Feng Wen looked into the distance with a look at the world, not caring about the reactions of others, this was undoubtedly laughing at the lack of people in the Ning family.
Suddenly, Wang Shi sensed the danger, suddenly took a wrong step, and immediately turned around and slashed out the demon knife, but unexpectedly, the opponent's palm had already attacked, so he had to draw the knife to resist.
Bang!
The powerful impact forced Wang Shi to leap backwards and landed firmly in the stands.
Glancing into the distance, Ning Chengtian's figure had disappeared, and Wang Shi understood everything. Presumably, Ning Chengtian couldn't listen to other people's wild words, so he borrowed him as a gun.
Feng Wen's eyes drooped slightly, looked at the careless Wang Shi, and asked, "You also want to 'learn from each other'?" Looking at you, it looks like someone threw you up, is someone trying to kill you?"
Seeing someone on stage again, everyone immediately raised their heads. However, after perceiving that Wang Shi was just a cultivator of the Divine Hidden Realm, his eyes showed disappointment again. I don't know which clown deliberately ran up to play tricks in order to prove his existence.
"Is there any benefit to beating you?" Turning his head to look at Feng Wen, Wang Shi asked with a smile.
"If you can beat me. β
Wang Shi nodded slightly and said, "If I win against you, you should have no face to marry again." β
Feng Wen's face changed slightly, and he said coldly: "Then I have to understand." β
"Wait. β
"What, you're scared?" Feng Wen laughed angrily.
Wang Shi glanced up at the stargazing tower and said, "Since you won the battle, you won't have the face to marry again." Then, the fifteen people upstairs have all come down, and I will beat you sixteen!"
