Chapter 229 Watching the fun and getting burned
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit eavesdropped on the conversation between Zhu Xuanji and other Jindan people. Not long after the conversation started, the whole spirit felt unwell.
It clenched its dragon claws into fists and smashed them repeatedly on the armrests of the throne.
"It wasn't the City Lord's Mansion that blew up the Immortal Palace, but Ning Zhuo."
"What are you doing? What are you doing?!"
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit gnashed his teeth, his face full of a look of disappointment.
It tries its best to get rid of Ning Zhuo because among all its competitors, Ning Zhuo is the most threatening to it.
Then Zhu Xuanji, whom it had placed high hopes on, actually led all the Jindan ancestors astray by himself.
"What kind of detective are you?"
"What do you do for a living? You are simply bringing shame to the title of Master Constable!"
However, when the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit heard halfway, it gradually fell into silence.
"Don't say it, really don't say it..."
"According to the clues Zhu Xuanji collected, his guess does make sense."
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit put himself in Zhu Xuanji's shoes. If he thought from Zhu Xuanji's perspective, it would be true! The City Lord's Mansion was the biggest suspect.
"But...why did things turn out like this?" The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit asked himself.
It soon got the answer.
"It's all Ning Zhu's fault!"
"He's really good at pretending and hiding things."
"But it is also true. Who would have thought that he was just a teenager, only sixteen years old, with only the third level of Qi training, and would dare to blow up the Immortal Palace?"
This kind of behavior is extremely audacious and greedy. The young man's thin chest contains ambitions beyond people's imagination!
You must know that the entire Lava Fairy Palace is the inheritance left behind by a great being at the Void Refinement Level.
It is most reasonable for a cultivator of the same level of Lianxu level to become the master of the Immortal Palace.
With the cultivation level of the Spirit Transformation Stage, it is most appropriate for him to inherit the position of the Palace Master of the Lava Fairy Palace.
But when it comes to the Nascent Soul level, it's just barely enough, and the Golden Core level is no longer good enough.
However, Ning Zhuo does not have the above-mentioned cultivation levels at all. He is only in the Qi training stage, which is the lowest level in the entire cultivation world.
It feels like a little ant trying to eat a tiger or leopard, which is really funny.
But the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit couldn't laugh at all.
Because it witnessed with its own eyes how Ning Zhuo survived in the cracks between several major forces, how he calculated against them, and how he controlled part of the situation.
How he allowed his own cultivation to expand and skyrocket, how he mastered complete magical powers and put people's lives on the line, how he took advantage of the situation and built up his own small force.
Ning Zhuo was approaching the throne of the Lava Fairy Palace quietly step by step!
So far, no one has noticed him!
Such experiences and characters are exciting and inspiring enough, but from the perspective of Long Yuan Huo Ling, it is a completely different feeling.
It wants to regain its freedom. If Ning Zhuo really becomes the palace master, it will no longer have any confidence in escaping!
"Ning Zhuo is just a little monster." Ning Zhuo was only in the Qi Refining stage, but he brought the most real and heaviest fear to the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit.
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit continued to listen.
When it heard that these Jindan ancestors planned to use Ning Zhuo as bait to lure the City Lord's Mansion into making a mistake and assassinate Ning Zhuo, it showed an expression of satisfaction and surprise for the first time.
"But...will the City Lord's Mansion take action against Ning Zhuo?"
Although the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was looking forward to this happening, reason told it that the possibility was not great.
"If the City Lord's Mansion really takes action, then Ning Zhuo will be in trouble and may even die here."
"If the City Lord's Mansion does not take action, Zhu Xuanji and others will notice something strange and reflect on it, and Ning Zhuo will also have more troubles."
When the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit thought of this, it immediately understood that no matter what the situation was, it would be beneficial to it, and it couldn't help but grin.
"No matter what, Ning Zhuo is in big trouble!"
"Hahaha, yes!"
"Who made him so powerful that he wanted to covet the Lava Fairy Palace!"
"Let's not talk about other things first. Just the fact that these Jindan ancestors are paying attention to him secretly is enough to stop Ning Zhuo. He can no longer practice freely like before."
"Under this situation, he will be under heavy surveillance, and it will be impossible for him to break through the foundation-building stage!"
Seeing Ning Zhuo so unlucky, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was happy from the bottom of its heart. It couldn't help but raise its head and laugh three times.
Not long after it laughed, it heard the Jindan cultivators discussing Ning Xiaohui.
It heard Zhu Xuanji give the order, asking Ning Xiaohui to strive for the position of the head of the Shiji Pavilion.
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit could no longer laugh.
At this moment, it suddenly realized that it was actually the most unlucky one!
Shiji Pavilion!
This special mechanical pavilion records all major and minor events since the founding of the Lava Fairy Palace, as well as the details of each event.
Many of the records in the Shiji Pavilion are quite valuable!
Once Ning Xiaohui becomes the head of the Shiji Pavilion, he will be able to look up information easily.
All the big and small events that happened in the Lava Fairy Palace would be displayed before her eyes. In this way, all the tricks and schemes that Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit had done to escape, as well as his own escape plans, would be completely exposed!
It was as if he had been hit in a vital spot, and the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit fell into a state of extreme panic.
"How to do how to do?!"
"Once Ning Xiaohui took over, she knew everything."
Unfortunately, the power of the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit is limited and it is unable to interfere.
It can only watch Ning Xiaohui quickly accumulate merits in the near future and then successfully become the head of the Shiji Pavilion.
Ning Xiaohui's success was almost inevitable because there was no one to compete with her.
She is the only one who has the status of a trial disciple on the route to the Immortal Palace.
Ning Xiaohui is now a medical practitioner, and she is also gifted with icy and delicate hands, and is extremely good at repairing mechanical devices. She is accumulating merits much faster than before, and much faster than others.
The position of the head of the Shiji Pavilion was not of high rank, and even if it was not a head of the Pavilion, a position like inspector would be enough for Ning Xiaohui to read the records in the Shiji Pavilion!
"How to do how to do?"
"Zhu Xuanji! You are so weak against Ning Zhuo. But when it comes to me, you can find my weak spot right away!"
"You are so cruel, so cruel! Why do you target me like this?"
"Also, why did the Ning family send Ning Xiaohui's victory report at this time, allowing Zhu Xuanji to discover the Shiji Pavilion?"
"Why am I so unlucky?"
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was running around anxiously in the main hall.
It was watching the show and excitement on the side, when suddenly it found that the fire was burning itself!
It can no longer remain calm.
"Stop it. Ning Xiaohui must be stopped!"
However, it is completely impossible to rely on it alone because it is the palace spirit of the Lava Fairy Palace.
When facing people who are trial disciples, it cannot take any action at all, nor can it disclose the data and information of these people at will, and it cannot even lie.
The dragon turtle fire spirit struggled in the abyss of despair, and suddenly, it stopped.
"Wait a minute!"
"I can't do it, but someone can."
"To be precise... it's Ning Zhuo!"
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit wants to take advantage of Ning Zhuo.
"Ning Zhuo and I are on the same page."
"Ning Zhuo blew up the Immortal Palace. Ning Xiaohui will definitely be able to find this out from the Historical Records Pavilion."
"Ning Zhuo can help me!"
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit became excited.
In fact, apart from Ning Zhuo, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit did not dare to contact anyone else.
It had previously told Meng Chong some key information from the perspective of the Lava Fairy Palace and had not revealed its true identity.
"For now, I can only contact Ning Zhuo."
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was forced into a corner and had no choice but to take this path to save himself.
I prefer a simple home.
The overturned houses and floors have been repaired.
Ning Zhuo sat cross-legged on the cushion, healing himself silently.
A group of foundation-building monks surrounded him, with concerned looks on their faces, and kept asking him indirectly what had happened.
"This is not something you can know, so just leave." Ning Zhuo's face was cold and he slowly closed his eyes.
The foundation-building monks had no choice but to leave the room.
They closed the door and exchanged glances. Everyone looked unhappy, with doubts between their brows.
Under Zhu Xuanji's strong pressure, the power that Ning Zhuo had just built up immediately showed signs of collapse.
The loyalty of these former deacons to Ning Zhuo is questionable.
Later, the members of the branch clan who took the initiative to join Ning Zhuo were generally optimistic about Ning Zhuo's development prospects. They came for the purpose of making money, not for the purpose of risking their lives.
Some people admire Ning Zhuo's performance and achievements, but most people support Ning Zhuo simply because there is no other second option among the Ning family branches.
"What did Ning Zhuo do to make Lord Zhu Xuanji go to such great lengths?"
"How can we know if he doesn't say anything?"
"Pay close attention to this matter. It seems that something is not right."
"Yes, Lord Zhu Xuanji's attitude is obviously not good. Could it be that Ning Zhuo did something bad?"
