They were distributed on the left and right, vaguely surrounding Ning Zhuo in the center.

There were a few other people scattered around the residence, patrolling vigilantly.

Ning Ze and Ning Fan stood in front of Ning Zhuo.

It is better to explain the purpose of your visit briefly and concisely.

Ning Zhuo raised his eyebrows: "I do have a large amount of spiritual stones, but this is my business and has nothing to do with the family, right?"

"Just for this matter, uncle, do you want to come and ask in person?"

The young boy's young and tender face was full of incomprehension and disbelief.

Ning Fan remained silent.

Ning Ze shook his head slightly, his face serious: "Xiao Zhuo, you are still young, it's not your fault that you don't understand these principles. Just tell us the truth and tell us where you got this huge sum of money."

But Ning Zhuo shook his head, looking embarrassed: "Sorry, uncle, I can't say anything about this."

Ning Ze and Ning Fan were surprised for a moment.

Ning Ze lowered his voice and his expression became more serious: "Why can't you say it? At this critical moment, why don't you say it?!"

Ning Zhuo shrugged and spread his hands, showing no concern at all, but also showing a stubbornness in his youth: "What does it matter? This is my money, I can spend it however I want."

Ning Ze said anxiously: "You don't understand your current situation, Xiaozhu!"

"Do you think you are still the same as before?"

“No!”

"You are now the focus of the family's cultivation and the second-in-command of the reform team. Do you know that?"

"Now someone has reported you, saying that you are extravagant and have a huge amount of money from unknown sources."

"Just when the family wanted to cultivate you and support you vigorously, you got into this trouble! Don't you think you should explain it clearly?"

"Xiao Zhuo, you think the world is too simple."

"Before, you were unknown and ordinary. No one paid attention to you. It didn't matter. But now you are at the peak of the third level. Everyone is watching you. Any small flaw in you will be magnified and seized upon by those with ulterior motives. They will criticize you with all their might and try to bring you down!"

"Now that there are such huge doubts about you, those people will spread rumors about you, saying that you are secretly funded by other families, have been turned against, and are a spy who is going to infiltrate my family. Do you think the family should conduct a detailed investigation to feel more at ease?"

Ning Zelian spoke a long speech, his words were earnest and heartfelt.

Ning Zhuo fell silent for a long time before he said, "Uncle, there are indeed many hidden secrets here. But I can assure you that I have not done anything against the law. The money came from a legitimate source, and I have a clear conscience!"

Ning Ze glared, wishing he could pull Ning Zhuo's ears: "No, what I just said was in vain?"

"Did you listen carefully?"

"Who can prove that you have a clear conscience? Who will believe it?"

"Well, since you haven't done anything against the law, just tell me directly. Now, you need to prove yourself to the family!"

Ning Zhuo remained silent.

"Did you listen to me?" Ning Ze raised his voice, frowned anxiously, and looked slightly angry.

Ning Zhuo sighed and finally told the truth: "Uncle, you are my closest person, you have to believe me, I really didn't do anything bad."

"But I really can't reveal this."

"I have made a contract with someone else. I can't tell you. If I tell you, I will suffer the backlash of the contract."

Ning Ze was stunned for a moment, then frowned even more tightly: "What would make you sign such a contract with others?"

"Oh, kid, you really made me anxious!"

Ning Ze pointed at Ning Zhuo, his fingers trembling with anxiety.

Ning Zhuo just lowered his head and remained silent.

Ning Ze looked at him, then at Ning Fan beside him, forced a smile on his face, and whispered to the latter: "Brother Ning Fan, can you please make an exception and let me talk to my nephew alone."

Ning Fan looked embarrassed: "You also know that I was sent here to supervise..."

Ning Ze couldn't care less at this moment, and quickly sent a message, promising some benefits.

Ning Fan struggled for a moment, then nodded: "You two uncle and nephew have a bright future, and I don't want to offend you, so I'll give you half a cup of tea."

Ning Ze led Ning Zhuo into the room.

"Go ahead, if there's anything you don't want to say, say it now."

"There are only two of us here." Ning Ze's face was as gloomy as water.

Ning Zhuo: "Uncle, what I just said is the truth. I am not lying to you. I did sign a contract with someone else, and I cannot reveal a single detail."

Ning Ze glared angrily, pointed his finger at Ning Zhuo's forehead, and gritted his teeth and said, "Ning Zhuo, do you know the seriousness of this matter?"

"The family values ​​you now, very much, so they sent a special investigation team here."

"Because I was worried that you might have some misunderstanding, I was sent here to talk to you."

"Now is the best time for you to confess. If you miss it, you will miss out on important things!"

Ning Ze took a deep breath and said, "Okay, even if you are bound by the contract, it doesn't matter."

“You must know that where there is a lock, there is a key.”

"Tell me what kind of contract it is. I can use the power of my family to clear it."

Ning Zhuo shook his head: "Uncle, in my opinion, it's best not to touch this matter."

"Ah, if you really want me to say it, I can only tell you that this matter involves the great repair of the golden elixir!"

"What?" Ning Ze was shocked and couldn't help but take a step back. "You, you are not lying to me?"

The Ning family’s strongest fighter is the Ning family’s ancestor, a Jindan cultivator.

"So, I think we should stop investigating this matter and leave it at that."

"If the family doesn't trust me, then I will quit the renovation team and will not participate in the exploration of Lava Fairy Palace."

Ning Ze was so angry when he heard this that he stamped his feet and said, "Xiao Zhuo, how can you say such nonsense?"

"I paid for you to join the renovation team."

"Do you think you can quit if you want to?"

"Even if you quit, the family will definitely investigate your affairs thoroughly."

"You, you, what on earth did you do?"

“It’s like this now!!”

"Tell me, who is that Jindan? Could it be that black shadow demon cultivator?"

Having said this, Ning Ze's pupils shrank sharply, he was horrified, and couldn't help but take a step back.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

The next moment, he sent a voice message to Ning Zhuo, and asked in a stern voice, "Quick, tell me, is this related to the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator?"

Ning Zhuo frowned: "Uncle, please don't force me, I can't say it."

"What the hell have you done to sign such a contract? Oh my, oh my. I, my family... my clan will be implicated by you." Ning Ze slapped his thigh in anxiety.

Ning Zhuo sighed: "Uncle, I had no choice but to do this."

After hearing this, Ning Ze couldn't help but be more inclined to the answer of the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator.

He put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth. Suddenly he stopped and stared at Ning Zhuo closely: "Xiao Zhuo, this matter is very serious. You can't hide away from it if you want to."

"We must investigate thoroughly today."

"Don't blame me, your uncle. It was you who did something wrong!"

Ning Zhuo was startled and said hurriedly: "Uncle, the matter is not as serious as you think..."

Ning Ze shook his head, eager to break off his relationship with Ning Zhuo and prove himself, he quickly walked out of the house and said to Ning Fan: "My nephew did sign the contract. What should I do next?"

"Does the family have the means to break the contract? The key is that this matter is related to a certain Jindan master."

Ning Fan was shocked.

After a moment of hesitation, his face darkened and he said, "The matter is very serious, but as long as the contract was not set by the Jindan master himself, we can start to crack it."

"But are you sure?"

"Ning Zhuo cannot reveal the information about the contract now. We have to keep trying. In the process, Ning Zhuo may suffer unavoidable harm."

Ning Ze struggled for a moment, then nodded vigorously: "We are entrusted with this investigation by our superiors, and the whole clan is paying attention. How can we report to the superiors if we don't do this? Do it!"

Ning Fan's eyes flickered: "You are Ning Zhuo's uncle, and the chief officer of this investigation team, you have the final say."

"However, it would be best if Ning Zhuo cooperated voluntarily in this matter, so that the effect would be the best."

As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, Ning Zhuo said, "I don't want to!"

Ning Ze turned his head and glared: "Evil son, this is not up to you."

Ning Ze glanced around and said in a low voice, "Are you still not going to do anything?"

Ning Fan sighed and waved his hand secretly.

Two burly men came out from the investigation team, grabbed Ning Zhuo on the left and right, and used their magical powers to easily suppress him.

Ning Fan took out the magic weapon and gave it to Ning Ze: "This is the bracelet for capturing the thoughts of father and son. Wear the father bracelet and put the son bracelet on Ning Zhuo's wrist, then you can capture his thoughts."

"As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his father."

"Although Ning Zhuo is bound by the contract and cannot reveal the truth, he can still think whatever he wants."

"As long as we forcibly absorb the relevant thoughts in his sea of ​​consciousness, we will be able to obtain the information."

"However, this action may trigger the backlash of the contract. Our investigation team will do our best to suppress it."

"On the other hand, forcibly taking in thoughts will also cause damage to the sea of ​​consciousness. To avoid this, it is best for you, little friend Ning Zhuo, to cooperate voluntarily."

Ning Zhuo was pressed down and could only struggle in his seat: "I don't want to, I don't want to at all!"

Ning Ze snorted coldly and put the father-son bracelet on himself and Ning Zhuo respectively: "Xiao Zhuo, you are stubborn and stubborn. As your elder and the person closest to you in this world, how can I let you make the same mistake again and again!"

"If you cooperate with me, you will suffer less pain."

I would rather be clumsy than willing.

Ning Ze's face was as cold as ice, and he directly activated the father and son bracelet.

A pair of bracelets on their wrists emitted a blue and white glow.

A strong suction force reached into Ning Zhuo's sea of ​​consciousness. Just as it was about to wreak havoc, it collided with my Buddha Heart Demon Seal.

The suction force is like a gust of wind, and the treasure seal is like a mountain, standing still and providing perfect defense.

Ning Zhuo's eyes rolled back and he kept twitching in his seat, with two streams of blood flowing out of his nostrils.

Ning Ze has a gloomy face and insists on having his own way.

Ning Zhuo had already prepared an idea and he offered it up actively, just as it was about to be caught by Ning Ze.

Bang.

With a loud bang, the door of the house was pushed open.

When the young clan leader Ning Xiaoren saw this scene in the hall, he was furious and shouted angrily: "Stop!"
