After Dongfang Xue heard the truth about the assassination, she was not very angry, "Why does my father want to test Ning Hongyuan?"

"I said it before, have you forgotten?"

Dongfang Xue turned her face sideways and said indignantly: "Of course I forgot! How can you be such a father! If Ning Hongyuan is really that kind of impatient person, wouldn't I!"

Dongfang Hao touched her hair, "Okay, you girl, your father apologized to you! The reason why I tested Ning Hongyuan like this is very simple, because I want to know if Ning Hongyuan has the same mind, perseverance, courage, and pattern as his father, and the result makes me feel very satisfied, Ning Hongyuan is worthy of Ning Hongyuan, although compared to Ning Yiwu when he was young, he still lacks some connotation!"

"Connotation?"

"That's right, Ning Hongyuan, this young man is very good, but not perfect, although he is very sophisticated and mature, but not enough connotation! But I believe that he will definitely grow up, he not only has his father Ning Yiwu as his role model, but also has a master behind him to help! I also admire him! Actually, compared to Ning Wuji's perfection, I like Ning Hongyuan a little more!"

Dongfang Xue suddenly looked very unhappy, "Father, can you stop talking about him, let's talk about Ning Yiwu's seniors!"

"You girl, of course you can, in the next thirty years, I will learn the same pattern as Ning Yiwu, and I will also interact with the strong in this way, for those strong people, even if I have kindness to him,"

On the one hand, it is my attainment in sword forging, and on the other hand, he knows that my ability completely surpasses that of ordinary people, and not keeping me by his side is also a training for me and a better future for me. Think about it, if I had stayed by Ning Yiwu's side at that time, I might not have experienced many of the things that followed, and I would not have formed the decisive ability to think independently! Without the ability to make independent decisions, then your father and I would not have the achievements we have today. ”

Dongfang Xue said: "Why?"

Dongfang Hao said: "Think about it, if I stay by Ning Yiwu's side, then I will listen to him in everything, because he is not only my savior, but also my life mentor, then I will still form the ability to think independently, and will I still do things independently?"

Dongfang Xue suddenly realized, her pupils contracted even more, and said, "No!"

Dongfang Hao turned his face sideways and smiled slightly, "Since I don't even have the ability to take charge alone, how can I have today's achievements, but at that time, he took in another person, that is, his subordinate Xuanwu Holy Envoy now, I didn't understand it at the beginning, so I asked him, why did you keep him and expel me?" He said a word that made me use for life, he said that my ability is much higher than Xuanwu, especially in sword casting, so he introduced me to the Dongfang seniors, and he personally came forward to hope that the Dongfang seniors would take me in as a righteous son, so I did this in sword casting for decades, and finally got the recognition of the Dongfang seniors, and taught me the family's secret sword-casting skills, and I have today! At that time, the Dongfang seniors had no children under their knees, and they were an old-timer who had been lonely all his life in order to study the world's top sword-casting skills."

Girl, always remember one sentence, you can become a talent!"

Dongfang Xue said: "Does father want to say some philosophies again? Hehe, my daughter likes to listen to these warning aphorisms of yours the most!"

Dongfang Hao smiled slightly: "I can't talk about the warning motto, but what my father said next, you must remember, 'Talents are always tempered, there is no concept of natural genius', remember?"

Dongfang Xue said: "Remember!"

Dongfang Hao said: "So, your father and I are naturally no exception! The reason why I can have today is not how talented I am, Tong Yan is also tempered by my fate, everyone will always have their own destiny, Ning Yiwu has that talent, and he is also tempered!"

Dongfang Xue was very dissatisfied with his father's humility, after all, his father was the first person to forge a sword in the southeast of the Heavenly Domain, and the strength of the martial arts realm was extraordinary, even if Ning Yiwu's predecessors were talented, it should be a strong cooperation, not a strong cooperation.

Dongfang Xue was still angry in her heart, "But, but father, you are also a famous swordsmith, no matter how charming Ning Yiwu's predecessor is, the cooperation between you should be a strong cooperation, why was Ning Yiwu's predecessor unwilling to let you go with him at that time? I can't be angry!"

Dongfang Hao was very relieved to see that his daughter Bing Xue was smart and a little willful.

"At that time, I was also very reluctant to leave Ning Yiwu, after all, for me and your aunt, in addition to being our savior, in a sense, even my life mentor, although he did not tell me any words of life, but he subtly influenced me with his practical actions, although he was only one year older than me, I respected him very much! At that time, under his influence, I was no longer an ignorant young man, and in just one year, I gradually grew up from a young man who hated the world

However, I was rejected by him in the end, the main reason was that what he did at that time was too one-man and arbitrary, and it could be wrong to bring any helper! After I experienced revenge, especially after being in contact with him for a period of time, my ideological realm was sublimated a lot.

And he said that he didn't need a helper for what he was doing now for the time being, so he recommended me to the Dongfang family, that is, your righteous grandfather, at that time, Dongfang's predecessors had no children under their knees, and they were old and lonely, your Uncle Ning Yiwu

At that time, your Uncle Ning Yiwu became the leader of a regular mercenary at the age of fifteen, on the one hand, because he himself had extraordinary abilities, and on the other hand, because of his father's identity, this mercenary group was the predecessor of the current "Red Dragon Mercenary", formerly known as the "Dragon Mercenary Group"! After receiving Ning Yiwu's funding, plus their Ning family is extraordinary, not a famous family in the ordinary sense, and has a lot of sword-casting materials, so your father and my career are thriving!"

"Then why did my father later part ways with Ning Yiwu's predecessors?"

Dongfang Hao looked at the hazy night scene in the distance, and sighed, "Speaking of which, that's a long story! Anyway, you are twenty-six years old now, and my father will also tell you about those complicated power struggles forty years ago, and now the world is about to face another big chaos, and it is also good for you to know some of these power struggles." ”

"In the past, I wanted to inquire about the legend of Ning Yiwu's predecessors, but my father always said that my daughter was too immature, and now I should always talk to my daughter about this, after all, the eldest brother is dedicated to cultivating martial arts, and the world is about to be in chaos, so I know a little bit, which is also convenient for me to deal with the relationship with the Ning family." ”

"At a young age, he learned to speak as an adult, okay, then I'll talk about it, Ning Yiwu's father controlled the military power of the empire back then, when the foreign army was pressing, Ning Yiwu's father planned to personally lead the Northern Expedition, but was blocked by a group of old guys, plus the mediocre monarch at that time listened to slander and seized Ning Yiwu's father's military power at a banquet, and then prepared to drive the expedition in person. ”

"Is it another palace coup? Hey, when will this Heavenly Domain be a little more peaceful? ”

"Coups have always been a precursor to troubled times, when Ning Yiwu's father had a chance to regain military power, but he was chilled and rejected the kindness of his subordinates. ”

"Why?"

"Because he is a minister of Tuogu, on the one hand, he may feel ashamed of his kindness to the first emperor by doing this, and on the other hand, he may have seen through it, do you remember the unknown tragedy of the Ning family sixty years ago?"

"Remember, it's been a secret to this day! Does my father know this secret?"

"Hahaha, I don't know this secret, but this secret should have a lot to do with Ning Yiwu's father's abandonment of military power. ”

"Since that old-timer didn't want to take the throne, what happened later?"

"There were so many things that happened that I can't talk about them for seven days and seven nights. ”

"Since I can't finish it, let's talk about it simply, what happened after the mediocre emperor regained his military power?"
