Ning Xiaoren glared at Ning Ze: "Why don't you stop?!"

As he said this, he pulled off the identity badge hanging around his waist and threw it hard.

The hard waist badge hit Ning Ze's head right on top, knocking him back and almost causing him to fall to the ground.

Ning Ze took a step back, steadied himself, and saluted quickly: "Greetings, Young Clan Leader!"

As he spoke, a large stream of blood flowed from his forehead.

Ning Xiaoren hit him again and his scalp was bleeding.

The father and son bracelets naturally stopped working.

Ning Xiaoren glared at him viciously and quickly ran to Ning Zhuo.

He raised his foot and directly kicked down a Ning family cultivator who was suppressing Ning Zhuo, and then shouted to another one: "Get lost!"

The two burly Ning family monks retreated in a hurry.

Ning Xiaoren quickly reached out and supported Ning Zhuo, his eyes red, his face full of guilt and concern: "Ning Zhuo, my nephew, Ning Zhuo, I am late, it is my uncle who is late, and I let you suffer this hardship! It hurts my heart to witness this scene."

As long as the father and son bracelets no longer urge him, Ning Zhuo will not feel uncomfortable.

But Ning Xiaoren still took out the best elixir and handed it to Ning Zhuo: "Nephew Ning Zhuo, your uncle's magic power is different from yours, and I can't personally regulate your body. But please take this elixir, the therapeutic effect is excellent!"

Ning Zhuo's face was pale and he was gasping for breath. He pushed the pill away feebly, showing the panic and doubt of a young man: "Young Clan Leader, I, I...how could you..."

Ning Zhuo saw that he was about to succeed.

The arrival of the Ning family investigation team was one of the scenarios he deduced.

He had made a big splash in the three-company joint test and had long anticipated that he would be secretly investigated and tracked by various forces.

It doesn't matter! If they don't investigate, Fei Si and Zhu Xuanji will definitely investigate. Even if Fei Si and Zhu Xuanji don't investigate now, they will investigate in the future.

Being investigated now is more beneficial to Ning Zhuo.

This is an alternative opportunity. As long as Ning Zhuo makes good use of it, he can "explain" himself to the outside world, which is actually a further disguise of himself. Moreover, it is also beneficial for him to show his own value.

Ning Ze was influenced by my Buddha Heart Demon Seal. Of course, this was also based on his fear and anxiety.

Today, Ning Zhuo has reached the third level of Qi Refining, the third level of Jing Refining, and the third level of Shen Refining, which is much stronger than before. He barely used a trace of the power of the treasure seal, and although he also had a nosebleed, it was a little later than before.

With the help of the father-son bracelet's strong power to protect his mind, the nosebleed was not surprising.

Ning Zhuo needed to explain to others why he had made such rapid progress in cultivation. It was not enough to just rely on the technique being compatible, he also needed to show others that he had a huge amount of spiritual stones, which meant he had enough resources for cultivation.

At this moment, he must "use" this huge sum of money "in public".

Because Fei Si, Chi Dun and Zhu Xuanji all knew that he was the creator of the Mechanical Fire Monkey. He made a lot of money from the business of the Mechanical Fire Monkey.

From the perspective of a normal young cultivator, it is very unreasonable to have such a large amount of money but not spend it, not purchase a large amount of resources, and not advance one's own cultivation!

Being a miser or stingy was not a character trait he had outwardly displayed over the past sixteen years.

As long as the explanation is successful, Ning Zhuo can use the money openly and go to various Dan Pavilion pharmacies openly to purchase a large amount of auxiliary resources to promote his own cultivation.

This is also very beneficial to him.

Especially next, he needs a seat in the three joint renovation team! When Ning Ze and others arrived, Ning Zhuo had a performance. Magical tools such as the father and son bracelets had long been included in his intelligence library.

In the Sea of ​​Gods, he had already prepared some ideas for this. As long as he sent them up, Ning Ze would get the "answer".

But just when it was about to succeed, Ning Xiaoren appeared.

Ning Zhuo really wanted to know why Ning Xiaoren suddenly broke in.

Ning Xiaoren was filled with relief: "I made it in time, thank goodness I made it in time!"

It turned out that when the three clan leaders were negotiating, Zhu Xuanji came to ask for the record. Before leaving, Zhu Xuanji took the initiative to tell the secrets of Ning Zhuo and the Mechanical Fire Monkey.

The three clan leaders were all high-ranking officials, and they all believed Zhu Xuanji’s words at the time.

As a member of the royal family and a master detective, Zhu Xuanji's words are highly credible and basically cannot be wrong.

In recent times, the sales of the Mechanical Fire Monkey have been booming. The three families have sent a large number of foundation-building monks to participate in the Fire Persimmon Festival. The three clan leaders know a lot about the Mechanical Fire Monkey.

Combined with the truth about Zhu Xuanji, they deduced the truth in a few words - Fei Si took the credit for the treasure, and Chen Cha secretly bought the identity of the inventor and pretended to be him. The real creator was actually Ning Zhuo from the Ning family!

Immediately, the two patriarchs of the Zhou family and the Zheng family congratulated the head of the Ning family.

The head of the Ning family was delighted in his heart, but he remained humble and cautious on the surface, saying that the matter still needed to be investigated before it could be confirmed.

He immediately called in a servant of the Ning family and told him to go back to the family and instruct the young patriarch to conduct an investigation first and then reward Ning Zhuo well.

The servant rushed back to the family and met Ning Xiaoren.

Ning Xiaoren was so frightened when he heard this that he almost jumped up and down. He immediately understood the source of Ning Zhuo's huge sum of money, and thought about the investigation team he had ordered to be sent out, so how could they dare to stay in the family residence? Although it was already late at night, he ran out of the mansion with all his strength and ran towards Ning Zhuo's residence like crazy.

This is how the scene just now happened.

Ning Xiaoren's eyes were red, and he sighed bitterly: "My nephew Ning Zhuo, I'm sorry for making you suffer. I know you have been wronged and have your own difficulties."

"I know your character and I know you're not a bad kid. You won't do anything wrong."

"I will get to the bottom of the investigation team's affairs and give you an explanation!"

"But after this incident, I'm sure you've realized that your current situation is very complicated and dangerous."

"It's because you're too good."

"Alas, a tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind; a pile that stands taller than the shore will be swept away by the current! There are many people who are jealous of you."

"Uncle, I'm really worried about you."

"You see, this investigation team came out of nowhere, and even your uncle was involved."

Ning Ze watched Ning Xiaoren perform, feeling stunned: "Didn't you summon me personally to do this?"

Now you have completely cleared yourself of all responsibility! Although Ning Ze strongly criticized it in his heart, he also knew that he must not expose his immediate superior at this time.

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

Isn't it the subordinate's job to take the blame for his superior? Therefore, Ning Ze just kept silent and secretly treated the injury on his forehead.

Ning Zhuo looked at Ning Xiaoren, then at Ning Ze who was lowering his head, and then at Ning Fan and others. His young face revealed an expression of panic and confusion.

"Then, what should I do?" He looked at Ning Xiaoren for help.

At this moment, Ning Xiaoren tried his best to show a gentle smile, and said in the most cordial and sincere voice: "This is easy, nephew Ning Zhuo, you can live in uncle's house. Uncle is the young patriarch, I will personally protect you."

Ning Zhuo looked hesitant and lowered his head slightly.

Ning Xiaoren handed the pill to Ning Zhuo again, and said in a very gentle voice: "Take it."

Ning Zhuo shook his head: "My injuries are not serious. It would be a waste to use such a precious medicine."

"Hehe." Ning Xiaoren patted Ning Zhuo on the shoulder, "Good boy, just accept it, just think of it as a meeting gift from your uncle. Let's go back home with your uncle. You may not know yet, but your father is my savior."

"In the past, I had my own difficulties and many concerns, so I couldn't take care of you directly. But now, you are in danger, and I have no choice but to come forward in person. I will do my best to protect you!"

Ning Zhuo slowly raised his head and said with a touching look on his face: "Thank you very much, Young Clan Leader..."

"Hey, don't call me Young Clan Leader, just call me Uncle Ning." Ning Xiaoren reached out his hand again and handed over the pill.

Ning Zhuo then took the pill embarrassedly.

"Come on, uncle will take you home!" Ning Xiaoren put his arm around Ning Zhuo's shoulders, helped him up, and was about to take him away.

Ning Zhuo took a few steps and paused: "Then the investigation on this spirit stone..."

Ning Xiaoren said, "Uncle swears to you that he will never treat you in such a cruel way. Let's think about it and see if we can get around the contract. If not, uncle will guarantee you with his position as the young patriarch to ensure that you are safe and sound and can practice with peace of mind."

When Ning Zhuo heard this, his guess was close to confirmation: "It seems that Ning Xiaoren has found out the secret of the Mechanical Fire Monkey from other channels. It's either Chi Dun or Zhu Xuanji."

Chi Dun and Fei Si don't get along, and Zhu Xuanji has a royal background, so both are possible.

Ning Zhuo is happy to see this happen.

He planned to launch the mechanical Fire Monkey, on the one hand to cover up the truth of the bombing of the Immortal Palace, and on the other hand to show off his own attainments in the art of machinery.

Thinking of this, Ning Zhuo no longer refused.

Ning Xiaoren deliberately concealed the fact that he knew the truth, hoping to show his sincerity and win over Ning Zhuo. Ning Zhuo also wanted to get close to Ning Xiaoren.

In the future, with the protection of the young patriarch, he will be able to hide himself better.

Ning Xiaoren accompanied him all the way and said many gentle and comforting words.

When he got home, he loudly ordered the servants in front of Ning Zhuo: "Vacate my bedroom and give it to my good nephew!"

Ning Zhuo hurriedly spoke out to stop him, but Ning Xiaoren's eyes became red again and he asked Ning Zhuo to stay so that he could make up for his guilt as an elder for not taking good care of his benefactor's son.

In the end, Ning Zhuo's eyes turned red and he nodded in agreement with a look of emotion.

When Ning Zhuo was about to fall asleep, Ning Xiaoren took out another talisman and gave it to him: "You have only recently reached the peak of the third level, have you not had your soul extracted and taken into the palace?"

Ning Zhuo nodded and expressed his curiosity about the Lava Fairy Palace.

Ning Xiaoren explained gently, "For matters concerning the Lava Palace, we need to work together with others to have a chance of passing. There is no need to rush now. If you rush into the palace, it will only damage your soul and delay your cultivation."

"Applying this rune will slightly damage the soul, which is weaker than the standard of extracting souls into the palace. It will be of great benefit to you and will not cause any harm."

"Thank you, Uncle Ning!" Ning Zhuo hurriedly thanked him.

Ning Xiaoren laughed, patted Ning Zhuo on the shoulder, told him to have a good rest, and left.

After entering the study alone, Ning Xiaoren's face no longer had the gentle look just now. With a cold face, he called his close servants and said, "Go and lead a group of your own people to search Ning Zhuo's residence. Remember, don't leave any traces of rummaging, and do your best to collect all the information."

"Yes, sir!"
