Chapter 491 Han Liang's Warning
The next morning, Bai Ying brought Bai Feiyu to Ning Daoran's residence.
"Master Ning Fu."
Bai Ying bowed and smiled, "Thank you for waiting all night, Master Ning Fu. I worked overnight and finally finished this robe for you. I hope you like it."
At her glance, Bai Feiyu immediately came over holding a green dress that was shining brightly.
Ning Daoran took a quick look with his spiritual sense and couldn't help but be slightly shocked.
This turned out to be a third-grade top-quality robe, a magical weapon made from various spiritual silks and soft materials. When worn, it not only increases the cultivator's magic power, but also has an extremely strong defensive effect, which is roughly the same as the defensive power of a third-grade mid-quality inner armor.
Ning Daoran had long heard that Fengxue Tower had two world-famous things, one was the Fengxue Spiritual Tea, and the other was the refining of robes!
The ancestor who once left the Fulong Sect with Fengxue Tower to set up his own sect was a female cultivator who was good at growing spiritual tea and refining robes. Most of the cultivators in Fengxue Tower are female cultivators, so these two skills have been passed down from generation to generation and have now become the sect's signature.
But even so, the price of a third-grade top-quality robe is quite scary. Bai Ying actually took out such a priceless robe to give as a gift, which made Ning Daoran extremely flattered.
"Master Bai..."
He frowned: "Is this... this gift too heavy? I can't afford it..."
"Master Ning Fu, what's the seriousness of this?"
Bai Ying pursed her red lips and said, "Master Ning Fu saved the life of the Saint of my Fengxue Tower. Feiyu's cultivation aptitude and talent are far superior to others in the younger generation of my Fengxue Tower. If something happens to her, the next generation of Fengxue Tower will be broken and will no longer be able to compete with the Fulong Sect."
She looked at him dimly, "It's just a third-level robe. I even think the gift is a little too small. I hope Master Ning Fu will not be polite and please accept it."
"Master Ning Fu..."
Bai Feiyu said softly, "This robe was made overnight by Master. I hope Master Ning Fu will accept it. This is a token of our Fengxue Tower's love!"
"In that case."
Ning Daoran did not keep refusing: "Then it would be disrespectful for Ning to refuse!"
In fact, Ning Daoran was very clear in his mind that Bai Ying's action was not only to thank him for Bai Feiyu's rescue, but also a disguised hope to win over Ning Daoran. After all, he was not only a third-rank low-grade talisman master, but also a mid-stage Jindan cultivator. If he turned to Fengxue Tower, it would be like providing timely assistance.
Afterwards, Ning Daoran left and returned to Yulongfang Market.
…
Surrounded by green mountains, green waters and bamboo forests.
In Yulongfang Market, Ning Daoran stepped into the Ning Family Shop, and Xiaobai came over with a smile: "Sir, are you back? I heard that something happened in the distance, and the people from Fengxue Tower were ambushed again, but fortunately they were saved."
"Yes, it is true."
Ning Daoran nodded and smiled: "Did anything happen in the shop?"
"That's not the case. It's just that a Fulong Sect disciple came this morning and said that the Fulong Sect's Saint Han Liang would come to pick up the goods in the afternoon. We have not yet delivered the last order they placed."
"Oh, I see."
Ning Daoran nodded and didn't take it seriously.
Afternoon.
A group of inner disciples of the Fulong Sect appeared in Yulongfang Market, led by Han Liang, who was known as the "Holy Son".
In fact, the Fulong Sect did not originally have a "Holy Son". Perhaps influenced by the "Holy Maiden" of Fengxue Tower, they held an inner sect competition not long ago. In the end, Han Liang won the championship as expected and obtained the title of Holy Son. From then on, he could legitimately consume the Fulong Sect's best resources for cultivating immortals.
"Master Ning Fu!"
Han Liang held a folding fan in his hand and said with a smile, "I wonder if Master Ning Fu has prepared the order from last time?"
"It's ready."
Ning Daoran took out a stack of talismans and said with a smile, "Please have Brother Han count them in person."
"good."
Han Liang immediately counted the number and said, "Confirmed, thank you Master Ning Fu!"
"Friend Han, you're welcome."
But at this moment, Han Liang did not seem to be in a hurry to leave. Instead, he turned around and walked to the inside of the counter, picked up a talisman pen and examined it, and said with a smile: "Recently, Yulongfang City has been a bit uneasy. Master Ning should have heard some rumors."
"Exactly."
Ning Daoran smiled indifferently and drank his tea.
Han Liang's lips moved slightly, and he directly transmitted his voice: "I heard that Master Ning Fu rescued Fengxue Tower Saint Bai Feiyu from a Jindan late stage robbery cultivator yesterday. Is this true?"
"true."
Ning Daoran also transmitted his voice, "Bai Feiyu is one of the regular customers of my talisman shop. This Longwei Peak area is indeed not peaceful. As a person from Yulongfang City, I should not stand by and watch when a regular customer is ambushed by a robber cultivator. The same principle applies to Han Daoyou. If Han Daoyou is ambushed by a robber cultivator and I happen to meet him, I will definitely take action and will never stand idly by!"
His words were powerful and sincere.
“…”
Han Liang was confused by his words. He just frowned and said, "The water in Longwang Mountain is very deep. Master Ning Fu, as a visiting monk, should put himself in the right position. Han and Master Ning Fu have some friendship. I hope Master Ning Fu can listen to my advice and stop interfering. The water in the Three Peaks is too deep. Not everyone can wade through it."
"Fellow Daoist Han means well, Ning will keep it in mind!"
"In that case, I'll take my leave now."
"Farewell, Fellow Daoist Han."
Ning Daoran watched Han Liang and the others go away, just smiled indifferently, and didn't take it to heart.
Looking at the three peaks of Longwang Mountain, the only one who can really make him feel wary is the high and mighty ancestor and supreme elder Li Bin. Ning Daoran really doesn't need to take the rest of the people seriously.
Bai Ying from Fengxue Tower and Han Dinghai from Fulong Sect, these late Jindan cultivators posed no threat to him.
…
"Master Ning Fu."
In the evening, a figure appeared in front of the talisman shop. It was the owner of Yulong Market, Li Yuantong, a middle-stage Jindan cultivator who spoke with great vigor.
"Friend Li?"
Ning Daoran looked at Li Yuantong and was speechless for a moment. This man actually came here with two magic chickens and two magic sheep, and the pretty Li Yinping followed behind him.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
In this case, there must be something you want to ask for.
Sure enough, after two cups of tea, Li Yuantong held it in for a long time before finally speaking: "This time, I came here to ask for something. I hope Master Ning Fu can listen to me. If it works, it works. If not, forget it..."
"Friend Li, just speak directly. There is no need to beat around the bush."
"yes!"
Li Yuantong coughed and said, "This matter is related to my Yinping... Master Ning should also know that Yinping is very interested in the art of talismans, but there is no decent talisman master in my Yulongfang City until Master Ning appeared. So... I dare to ask Master Ning to be Li Yinping's talisman master and teach her some talisman skills."
He said hurriedly: "Of course, the third-level talisman is so precious that there is no need to teach it. In return, my Yulongfang City is willing to waive all the rent of the talisman shop. In addition, Li can take back the Qibaoxuan next to it and rent the shop to Master Ning for free, and convert the store selected by Qibao into a talisman shop. I wonder what Master Ning thinks..."
As he spoke, he felt a little embarrassed, with his hands on his legs looking a little unnatural.
At this time, Li Yuantong looked just like a father who begged the principal for admission of his child, just like an honest old man.
Li Yinping, who was standing by, had a look of expectation on her face and said softly, "Master Ning Fu, I will definitely study hard and help the shop from time to time..."
"well……"
Ning Daoran sighed and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, Li Yinping can stay in the shop. I will also teach her the first and second level talisman arts. How much she can learn depends on her own ability. As for expanding the shop, forget it. The current shop space is enough. Fellow Daoist Li can just waive all the rent for the shop."
"good!"
Li Yuantong's eyes lit up, and he quickly took out a storage bag: "This is the rent paid by the shop last time. I will return it in full. Li Yinping's future study of the Way of Fu...I'll leave it to Master Ning!"
"polite."
Ning Daoran said, "I wonder if Yinping will live at home or in the talisman shop after she decided to learn the talisman art?"
"this……"
Li Yuantong was also at a loss.
"Just live in the shop, okay?"
Li Yinping said, "Dad, this way I don't have to run back and forth every day."
"Alright, alright."
Li Yuan said, "It's just that... this shop is too small. How about... Master Ning Fu, why don't you take over the Qibaoxuan shop next to it?"
“No need.”
Ning Daoran shook his head: "As cultivators, we don't need to be too particular about food, clothing and shelter. There is an empty room in the backyard of this talisman shop. Xiaobai, go clean it up. Li Yinping will live there from now on, so it will be convenient for you to help run the shop on weekdays."
"yes!"
Li Yinping looked excited: "Then... Master Ning Fu, how should I address you from now on? Should I change my way of addressing you?"
“No need.”
Ning Daoran shook his head: "I am only teaching you a part of the talisman tradition, I am not your real master. You can still call me Master Ning Fu, there is no need to be so rigid."
Li Yinping smiled and nodded. For her, being able to practice talismans with Ning Daoran was the most important thing. Nothing else was important.
So, the eldest daughter of the Li family settled down in the talisman shop.
Ning Daoran gave her a first-level talisman inheritance and the experience of refining talismans. After giving her some pointers, he let Li Yinping figure out the mysteries of talismans on her own. Of course, Li Yinping had to provide all the materials she needed to practice talismans by herself, as Ning Daoran was not that generous.
…
In this way, the days suddenly slowed down.
Ning Daoran began to retreat again. He first successfully refined the Blood-Drinking Sword. The magical power of this treasure was indeed extraordinary. During a fight, as long as he killed someone, he could absorb the opponent's blood, flesh and essence to strengthen the magic power of the treasure. Although the duration was very short, this kind of treasure that increased while decreased made Ning Daoran value it very much.
In the future, you will always encounter an opponent of equal strength, and then the Bloodthirsty Sword will come in handy.
So, in a mountain range covered with green bamboo, the Yulong Market and the Talisman Shop were bustling, but only the Lingpu Cave was quiet. Ning Daoran found a piece of tranquility in the bustle and entered into a long retreat again.
