"Dad, have you heard of the Shadowless Sect?"
Ningxi noticed that her father's expression was a little strange and couldn't help but ask.
Ning Hongsheng shook his head and sighed, "I've only heard of it. It's said to be a martial arts sect that has emerged in the last ten years. It has developed rapidly and is very powerful. In particular, their sect leader is said to be a top expert on the Fengyun Ranking!"
"A master on the Wind and Cloud Ranking?" Ning Xi was taken aback.
The list of top masters is filled with grandmasters, and not just any grandmasters, but the best among them. Only those who stand out among the grandmasters can be listed on the list!
Ning Hongsheng said with a solemn expression, "The Ranking of Heroes hasn't been changed for nearly ten years. Perhaps this grandmaster is even more terrifying than we imagined!"
Ning Xi's pretty face showed worry, and she also felt a little guilty. "I'm sorry, Dad, it's all my fault. I was too reckless and brought such a big threat to the Ning family!"
Ning Hongsheng shook his head. "It's not your fault. What's meant to be will be. This wretched child came to my Longxuan Pavilion to cause trouble. If we don't teach him a lesson, people will think that my Ning family is easy to bully!"
"Besides, the leader of the Shadowless Sect is a big shot in the clouds, and he must be reasonable. Even if he comes knocking on our door, we should reason with him!" Ning Hongsheng said thoughtfully.
Despite this, Ning Hongsheng was still somewhat worried, after all, the reputation of the Shadowless Sect was too great.
"Alright, let's put this matter aside for now. You all go about your business. Find someone to pack up the things and take stock of the losses!" Ning Hongsheng said helplessly, instructing his servants to get to work.
Just as everyone was packing up, a convoy of BMWs roared in and stopped directly on both sides of the road outside Longxuan Pavilion.
Bang bang bang!
The sound of car doors opening one after another filled the air as a group of tall men dressed in martial arts uniforms stepped out of the vehicles, each carrying a stick.
The leader was a burly middle-aged man with sharp eyes, calloused hands, and an imposing aura, like a hungry tiger, which instilled fear in people.
"Liu Wangchong of the Shadowless Sect is here! You rats of the Ning family, how dare you injure my junior brother! Come out and face your death!"
roar--
His voice was deep and resonant, like a lion's roar, and the entire street could hear it clearly.
Ning Hongsheng and his daughter, who were inside the building, naturally heard it as well, and their expressions changed simultaneously.
Ning Hongsheng shook his head and sighed, "I didn't expect the Shadowless Sect to still come knocking on our door!"
"Hmph! What's there to be afraid of? We're not in the wrong. Dad, just you wait, I'll take the twelve mute slaves out right now and wipe out this scoundrel!" Ningxi said through gritted teeth.
"Daughter, you absolutely mustn't!"
Ning Hongsheng quickly stopped her, his tone grave. "Just by looking at this person's voice, we can tell that his cultivation level is definitely higher than mine. He has most likely already entered the realm of martial arts grandmaster. Such a strong person, let alone twelve mute slaves, even a hundred mute slaves would be no match for him!"
Ningxi clenched her fists and stamped her feet anxiously, "Dad, what do you suggest we do? They've already come knocking on our door!"
Ning Hongsheng pondered for a moment and said, "This person is definitely not someone we can defeat by force, and our Ning family is no match for the Shadowless Sect! To resolve this matter, we must find someone influential to mediate. At that time, we can spend some money to turn a big problem into a small one, and a small problem into nothing!"
"Looking for someone influential? Who?"
Ning Xi looked puzzled. She couldn't understand why the Shadowless Sect would give face to anyone at this point.
However, her beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she blurted out, "Dad, the person you're talking about, it wouldn't be Marshal Lin, would it?"
Ning Hongsheng nodded, "That's right, it's Young Marshal Lin! The Shadowless Sect is powerful, and I'm afraid only Young Marshal Lin can help mediate. In addition, Young Marshal Lin's cultivation is unfathomable. Even the leader of the Shadowless Sect would probably have to give him some face!"
Ning Xi nodded slightly, "Okay, then I'll contact Young Marshal Lin now!"
Ningxi quickly went to the side to make a phone call.
Ning Hongsheng was the first to lead his men out of Longxuan Pavilion.
At this moment, the disciples of the Shadowless Sect had completely surrounded the Dragon Pavilion, their eyes filled with murderous intent, as if they were about to flatten the entire Dragon Pavilion at any moment.
After Ning Hongsheng came out, he smiled and clasped his hands in greeting, "Friends, what brings you to my Longxuan Pavilion today? Feel free to tell me, and I, Ning, will personally serve you. This kind of entourage is too much for my Longxuan Pavilion to handle!"
"You can't handle it? Humph!"
The leading man sneered and said contemptuously, "Knowing you can't handle this, you still dare to injure my Shadowless Sect's disciple, Ning Hongsheng, you have some nerve!"
"presumptuous!!"
The servants of the Ning family couldn't stand it anymore. Their leader was someone that everyone in the entire Guanzhong region, even the four major families, treated with utmost respect. This person dared to reprimand them to their face; it was simply outrageous.
Ning Hongsheng waved his hand and said with a smile, "Senior, this is a misunderstanding, this is absolutely a misunderstanding! First, your two disciples came here and smashed all my things, causing me a loss of at least hundreds of millions of yuan. I am really angry. In addition, they did not say that they were disciples of the Shadowless Sect. If I had known, I would never have chosen to solve the problem in this way!"
"Stop talking nonsense! I heard it was your daughter who ordered the crippling of my two junior brothers' legs. Hand her over today and pay me 100 million in medical expenses, and I can pretend this never happened!" Liu Wang said fiercely.
Ning Hongsheng was stunned, and his face gradually darkened.
This person's demands are extremely unreasonable. It's already outrageous to ask him to pay compensation, but to actually demand that he hand over his daughter is simply absurd!
"What? You're not going to pay?" Liu Wangchong nodded and pointed at the plaque of Longxuan Pavilion. "I'll raze your Longxuan Pavilion to the ground today!"
Wow!
With a wave of his hand, the hundreds-of-pounds plaque suddenly fell to the ground. Then, he rushed forward and kicked out—smack!
The heavy plaque shattered into pieces in an instant and fell to the ground.
At this moment, both the people from Longxuan Pavilion and the onlookers couldn't help but widen their eyes in astonishment.
Who would have thought that Longxuan Pavilion's century-old reputation would be smashed today?
Ning Hongsheng's body trembled.
This plaque is over a hundred years old. He moved to many cities, but he always carried it with him, maintaining and preserving it regularly, never letting it fall into disrepair.
However, today, it was vandalized!
You must understand, this is not just a plaque! It is the culmination of the Ning family's ancestors' efforts, the face of the entire Ning family, and the glory he was determined to protect throughout his life!
Their ancestors even had an ironclad rule: "As long as the plaque lives, the person lives; if the plaque dies, the person dies!"
At this moment, the other party smashed his plaque, which was tantamount to taking his life!
"This is outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!!"
Ning Hongsheng clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes gradually turned bloodshot.
"Since you insist on using this method, then my Dragon Pavilion is not to be trifled with! I, Ning Hongsheng, will sacrifice my head and brains to perish together with you!!"
Wow!
In an instant, Ning Hongsheng's inner universe exploded, and his aura suddenly soared, even surpassing the realm of perfect inner strength!
Even Liu Wangchong, who was on the other side, couldn't help but change his expression!
