Chapter 407: Comparing Backers



It has been less than half a year since I came to Lingtian Continent, and I have never even heard of Ning Songcheng, let alone the name of Ning Songzhen.

Faced with the threat from Ning Songzhen, Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou, who were also not easy to deal with, were not likely to be scared.

Seeing her sneering and determined look, and then looking at the several cultivators behind her, the strongest one was also in the out-of-body stage, no wonder she dared to be so arrogant.

As if she noticed that he was looking at the guards behind her, Ning Songzhen smiled triumphantly.

"Are you looking at my guard? My parents are afraid that I will be bullied outside, so they specially sent a guard in the Out-of-Body Stage to protect me. You are only in the Golden Core Stage? Your cultivation is a bit low."

Ning Songzhen was disgusted at first, but then she smiled and said in a condescending tone, "But it doesn't matter. As long as you follow me, I guarantee that you will be able to break through to the Golden Core Great Perfection in less than a year."

"With me, you can take any elixir you want, and you don't have to pay a huge price like others."

Ning Songzhen's voice became lower and lower, as if carrying some kind of temptation.

"Ning Songzhen, they are my guests, don't go too far!" Qin Yuexian warned with a cold face.

Ning Songzhen glanced at her calmly, her green jade fingers curling the hair beside her ears, and said nonchalantly: "Why, are you so afraid that I will abduct your 'customer'? This is not the first time. You and I are cousins. It won't be a big deal if you give in to me a few times."

"I'd rather not be your cousin!" Qin Yuexian was so angry at what she said. It was because it was not the first time that she hated Ning Songzhen more and more.

This woman knew that she also liked beautiful women, so every time she heard that she had invited a handsome man to her house, she would often come to snatch him away. On several occasions, people who were living comfortably in her house were snatched away because of some benefits she promised them in private.

Although she only liked those people's looks and was not really in love with them, Ning Songzhen's behavior was tantamount to snatching food from her mouth. If she didn't stop it, given Ning Songzhen's character, she would only become more aggressive.

"How about it, handsome guy, both of you can come, I promise, before the Spiritual Transformation Stage, I can give you whatever you want."

Ning Songzhen ignored Qin Yuexian and directly sent a message to the two of them, saying that as long as they could abduct these two extremely handsome men to Ning Song City, they could bear the price before the Spirit Transformation Stage.

In the end, they might even give feedback to themselves, killing two birds with one stone. Ning Songzhen had a calculating look in her eyes.

"Don't believe her." Qin Yuexian saw that Ning Songzhen was just looking at them without saying anything, and guessed that she might be secretly conveying a message.

"Qin Yuexian, don't assume that others can't do what you can't do." Ning Songzhen said in a deliberately distorted tone.

Qin Yuexian was not fooled and sneered: "I can't do anything, like you, to have hundreds of male concubines in the backyard?"

Ning Songzhen's face immediately turned cold, "For them, I can dismiss all those male concubines."

"Can you bear to have them dismissed?" Qin Yuexian said sarcastically.

"No matter how you question me, I can do it for them." Ning Songzhen took the opportunity to express her determination.

"Stop making so much noise." Zhongli Tingzhou finally showed an impatient expression and stared at Ning Songzhen with cold eyes. This damn woman, it would have been fine if she coveted him, but she even dared to covet his person.

Ning Songzhen's hair stood on end when she saw him looking at her. Realizing that he was actually releasing murderous intent towards her, her first reaction was disbelief, and then not fear, but anger.

"What's that expression on your face? Do you want to kill me? Do you think you're worthy? It's your blessing that I like you, but you actually want to kill me?"

Ning Songzhen laughed angrily. If it wasn't for the fact that he was the most handsome man she had ever seen, she would have ordered someone to kill him on the spot.

She didn't have to have both of them. Although the other one was second only to him, he was much better than the male concubines in her backyard and was a rare and top-quality one.

Maybe she should kill the chicken to scare the monkey, let the other one know her determination, scare him a little, and maybe he will give in.

"Miss, be careful!" The out-of-body stage guard behind her suddenly changed his expression and took Ning Songzhen away in an instant.

The violent sword energy did not hit Ning Songzhen, but fell on another Nascent Soul guard behind her. The guard did not even have a chance to dodge and was killed on the spot.

Blood splattered everywhere, and the air was filled with a bloody smell, until the servant whose face was splashed with blood let out a scream.

Ning Songzhen looked at the scene in disbelief. If the guards had been a step slower, she would have been the one to be splattered with blood. Rage instantly swept through her body.

"Feiyang, kill him for me!"

Ning Songzhen stared at Zhongli Tingzhou coldly, the falsehood in her eyes came and went quickly.

"Yes, miss." The Feiyang she mentioned was the out-of-body guard who rescued her in time. He responded coldly, and the look he gave Zhongli Tingzhou was filled with cold murderous intent.

If the young lady died or was seriously injured in front of him, he, as the first guard, would definitely not be able to escape responsibility. This man almost caused him to be punished, which is unforgivable!

"You dare!" An Lan stood in front of them at Qin Yuexian's urgent instructions.

"Qin Yuexian, get your dog out of the way!" Ning Songzhen's face darkened instantly.

"Do you think my An Lan is the same as your Fei Yang? You dare to attack my guests on my territory. Do you think I don't exist?" Qin Yuexian snorted coldly.

"He killed my guard!" Ning Songzhen said coldly.

"That's all because of you. If you hadn't dodged, he wouldn't have died." Qin Yuexian said seriously.

Ning Songzhen didn't expect her to say that. She was stunned for a moment and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"

Qin Yuexian said coldly: "I won't say the same thing a second time."

Ning Songzhen said madly: "Who really wants you to say it a second time, Qin Yuexian, I am your cousin. If I die in Tianjiu City Lord's Mansion, I wonder how your father will explain to my parents!"

Qin Yuexian: "Hehe."

Looking at Ning Songzhen who was almost driven crazy, Gao Han thought to himself that Qin Yuexian was indeed an amazing person.

"Are you attracted to her?" Zhongli Tingzhou saw him staring at Qin Yuexian, and a calm voice sounded in his mind.

The calmer it is, the less peaceful it will be.

Gao Han, who knew him well, replied: "How is that possible?"

"Then why are you staring at her?" Zhongli Tingzhou asked persistently.

"How many seconds have you been?"

"One second? Never mind, two seconds."

"roll……"

In this tense atmosphere, the two of them were chatting animatedly in their own minds. No one knew that they did not take Ning Songzhen and her out-of-body guards seriously at all.

Ning Songzhen, who was unaware of the situation, sneered and said, "Qin Yuexian, since you want to protect him, then if you have the ability, then protect him for the rest of his life and keep him from leaving Tianjiu City!"

Qin Yuexian frowned, "Ning Songzhen, don't go too far."

"No one has ever survived for more than a hundred days after attacking me." Ning Songzhen stared at Zhongli Tingzhou with murderous intent, "Let's go!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left the City Lord's Mansion, and the remaining two guards immediately followed.

"Things are getting complicated. Ning Songzhen has a strong desire for revenge and will not stop until she achieves her goal. As far as I know, none of the people she targeted is still alive." Qin Yuexian said to Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou with an unpleasant expression, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault that I got you into trouble. I shouldn't have invited you to be my guests."

"Miss Qin, there's no need to apologize. We are here voluntarily. It has nothing to do with you." Gao Han didn't take it seriously at all.

Qin Yuexian thought that he was a really nice guy. If Zhongli didn't like her in the end, marrying him seemed like a very good choice.

"Without my suggestion, you wouldn't have come. It's my responsibility anyway."

"Ning Songzhen will definitely send people to guard outside the city. As soon as you leave Tianjiu City, her people will immediately take action. Otherwise, you should not leave for a short time. Wait for my father to come back, and I will ask him to send a few strong men to escort you out."

"When will your father come back?" Gao Han asked curiously.

Qin Yuexian said subconsciously: "It may take two or three months at the latest."

It was too late for An Lan to stop it. This answer would reveal the fact that they had known for a long time that the city lord was not in the mansion.

Qin Yuexian noticed An Lan's expression only after she finished speaking. She finally reacted and immediately looked at Zhongli Tingzhou nervously, afraid that he would be angry after knowing that she had lied to him.

Zhongli Tingzhou, who had known the truth a long time ago, did not react at all.

Qin Yuexian breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time she felt a little lost. She didn't know what she was losing.

"Two or three months is too long." After completing all the preparations this time, Gao Han planned to go to the demon battlefield. The sooner Fugui's matter was settled, the more at ease he would be.

Qin Yuexian gritted her teeth and looked at An Lan again. An Lan reacted and immediately refused.

"Master, I cannot leave your side. This is the only thing I will not agree to."

"But..." Originally, the only strong person she could summon was An Lan.

"No buts." An Lan looked at Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou, "If you two don't have anything too urgent, why don't you stay in the City Lord's Mansion for a few more days? We can think of other solutions."

Gao Han chuckled, "This method of escape is not our style."

"Do you still want to fight your way out?" Qin Yuexian was surprised, and then shook her head in disapproval. "Feiyang beside Ning Songzhen is a late-stage out-of-body warrior. You can't beat her. Besides, Ning Songcheng is behind her. The Ning Songcheng Lord is well-known for protecting his people. As long as Ning Songzhen cries, the Ning Songcheng Lord will definitely stand up for her."

"She's not the only one who has a backer." Gao Han said disapprovingly.

Qin Yuexian was stunned. Does this mean that they also have a powerful backer?

However, they have lived here for three days, and she still hasn't figured out which force they belong to.

Deep down, she didn't want Zhongli to have a high family background. If that were the case, no matter how much she liked him, she might not be worthy of him. But now, she actually hoped that their backers would be stronger.
