Chapter 179 Chapter 135 Grand Invitation Part 2

Qiu Yingyao is the current head of the Qiu family. She would send her own grandson to the Ni family. It is obvious that she is in between taking the Ni family's invitation seriously and not taking it seriously.

The only family head who would come in person is probably Puis.

But he didn't come here on behalf of the Pu family.

"How are you after not seeing each other for a few years? He..."

Zoila stopped talking halfway through her sentence.

Regarding Ni Lan, Zoila is one of the few people who doesn't know what he has done or his past, but still sides with Ni Lan.

But their relationship wasn't close enough for Zoila to ask about it, and it would be troublesome to explain it to Qiu Liuchuan later.

"We are all fine, thank you for your concern, Ella." Pomo certainly knew who the person she couldn't say was. Mentioning Ni Lan on this occasion might cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Zoila smiled and said, "That's good. Liuchuan and I won't disturb you from enjoying the garden. There are many flowers here that I have never seen before. They are worth seeing."

Qiu Liuchuan is a jealous person. Since he knows that his former classmates are doing well, there is no need for him to stay and "exacerbate the conflict."

"Excuse me,"

The two said goodbye to Zoila and Qiu Liuchuan, and the loving interactions between the young couple could still be seen from a distance.

“It’s at times like these that I suddenly realize how long it’s been.”

Pomo sighed, time always slips away silently, and by the time you realize it, you don’t know how much time has passed.

Puis sighed, "Yeah, time..."

They have to race against time, if Alan loses his hearing, it will be too late to recover.

The entire garden has been carefully maintained, and just as Zoila said, there are many rare plants and flowers here.

There are even some plants that need to use supernatural powers to change the temperature and environment in order to grow normally, which makes people sigh at the strong financial resources of the Ni family.

Puis sensed this unusually obvious fluctuation of supernatural power, and began to consider the possibility of taking advantage of the situation.

After arriving at the Ni family, Puyis has not used his special abilities yet. After all, he does not have a correct understanding of the Ni family's background, and rash investigation may arouse the Ni family's vigilance or even hostility.

But after all, four years have passed, and Puis has not slacked off in his training of supernatural powers and has made great progress.

The construction of a detection area under the rules of defense can ensure that it will not be noticed by others, and even the instruments specially designed to detect supernatural fluctuations will not be triggered. The disadvantage is that the range of the area will be greatly reduced and the consumption of supernatural powers will be greatly increased.

Puis briefly used his special powers in the garden, but at least he didn't find out anything in this place.

The Ni family's manor is really too big. When building some special buildings, they must choose the safest place. As expected, they still have to go back to the main castle and explore it carefully.

Pomer looked at Puis and saw him shaking his head slightly, knowing that this meant he had not discovered anything.

"Then let's go back."

——

When we arrived at the assigned guest room, the Ni family's waiter kindly presented us with a map.

"The master of the house has important matters to attend to. He will receive you in order of priority, but the number of guests he can receive each day is limited. Please forgive me."

Everyone who can come to the manor now is either rich or noble. Patriarch Ni dare not neglect them easily, but he is unable to do so after all.

Just hand out a map of the entire estate to every guest...are you encouraging them to investigate?

For a moment, the two of them really couldn't figure out what the Ni family was thinking.

Puis did not let the waiter leave, "I wonder if you could find out about the family structure of the master of the house, so that we can prepare gifts in advance."

Although it was a bit abrupt, the reason was reasonable, and the owner of the house did not forbid discussing such matters, so the waiter did not refuse.

"The head of the family has a son and a daughter, but his wife died of illness many years ago and has not remarried since then."

What the waiter said was not really a secret. It was just that there was too little information about the Ni family, and most of the information was just hearsay.

"Are all the family head's children here?"

The waiter smiled politely and said, "The young master is not here, but the young lady has been following the master of the house. You two may be able to see her in two days."

The young master of the Ni family is not here? Is he out, or is it inconvenient for him to see people?

After the waiter left, Puis finally released the area to cut off the possibility of being heard, and then he and Pomo analyzed the matter.

"Es, do you remember the information we found in the Lanster Library so long ago?"

"Remember, every Holy Maiden of the Church of Light married into the Ni family."

This may be one of the reasons why the relationship between the Church of Light and the Ni family is so close.

Pomo proposed a hypothesis, "Is Alan the illegitimate son of the master? Or is he actually the young master who is not at home?"

Their top priority is to find out Ni Lan's specific identity and relationship with the Ni family.

If you don't get any results, you should still consider what to do next.

"Want to sneak out for a walk tonight?"

I don't know why, but this seems to be their traditional skill, always sneaking out late at night when they arrive at a place that needs investigation.

Pu Yisi was still a little cautious, "No, let's wait until we meet Patriarch Ni before making any plans."

Taking out the map, Puis pointed to the area behind the manor.

"Let's go check here tomorrow. If we don't find anything, then we can basically be sure that our target is inside the main castle."

The space extending upwards is visible to the naked eye. Unless the Ni family has another teleportation array, the secret must be hidden downwards.

It’s just that they can’t demolish downwards as violently as they did in Lianyun City, nor can they see the downward limit clearly at a glance like in Lanster.

The boy looked at the map. The markings there confirmed that it was a forest behind the mountain, and there seemed to be hot springs there.

Since it's not a deserted place, it's not strange that they run there.

"There's even a hot spring here. The Ni family really picked a good location."

This place seems remote and is a certain distance away from the Holy City Jade Tower, but it perfectly meets the needs of the Ni family.

Being remote is not a problem at all. With the support of the Church of Light, we can create a paradise even if this is a foreign world.

"It was beyond my expectation that the Ni family could hide to this extent."

It seems that it is not excessive to respond with the utmost vigilance.

After having dinner brought by the waiter, the two went to bed early, thinking of getting up early.

But that night, a scream came from outside, which woke up Pomo and Puis immediately.

Pomo somersaulted and squatted on the bed.

"Es!"

"I heard it. Let's go check it out."

After putting on a coat, the two opened the door and walked out. Unexpectedly, there was already someone outside, and there was even a waiter waiting to explain.

"I'm sorry to bother you all, it was just a minor accident. It's dangerous to wander around late at night."

Danger in the middle of the night? No matter how dangerous it is, it is still on the Ni family's territory. If something bad really happens, your Ni family should be held responsible.

Then someone started to complain, "What danger? Who would dare to stay if you don't explain it clearly?"

"That's right."

The waiter bowed again and again, not at all annoyed by the customer's reproach.

"I'm really sorry. Please be patient. Some people with bad intentions tried to sneak into the manor. We have already dealt with it. We will give you an accurate answer tomorrow. Please go back and have a good rest."

Seeing that they couldn't find out more, everyone went back reluctantly.

Puis and Pomo just mingled in the crowd and didn't say a word from beginning to end. After returning to the room, they looked at the time and it was already past three in the morning.

There is no doubt that the so-called person with evil intentions must be related to the guests who came here.

Either the people who came in wanted to go out and investigate in the middle of the night, or they passed the news to the outside world and let people come in to investigate.

But no matter which one it is, it seems that the Ni family has solved it.

It was the right decision not to leave rashly. I should just wait until dawn.

——

After daybreak, after breakfast, before they could even leave the house, a waiter came to find them.

"Are the two distinguished guests free? Please see me, Master."

They didn't expect to meet the head of the Ni family so soon. The two looked at each other and immediately agreed.

Finally, I get to meet the 'legendary' head of the Ni family, who is most likely Ni Lan's father. The two have very complicated feelings.

What kind of man would that be? What kind of activities are the Ni family secretly doing with the Church of Light? Is Ni Lan's five senses retreating related to this? There are too many questions waiting for them to answer.

Following the waiter through the main castle to the central area, they finally met the head of the Ni family, Ni Qingjiang, in an extremely spacious reception room.

"Haha, please take a seat, my two young friends. I have heard of your great names for a long time. Seeing in person is truly believing."

Ni Qingjiang looked younger than the two had imagined, and he did not look very impressive.

This is indeed unexpected.

"Hello, Master Ni." They were still unsure of Ni Qingjiang's character, so the two of them had to be polite.

Ni Qingjiang waved his hands and said, "You are all my son's age, so there is no need to be so restrained. You can call me Uncle Ni if you like."

He was very humble, but he did not lose his dignity, which made people feel good about him.

"I only heard about the Pu family's misfortune recently. The Ni family has kept a low profile for a long time and has not said anything that it is my fault."

Ni Qingjiang said that he didn't know much about what was going on outside, but Puis didn't believe it at all. It would be impossible to send invitations to every important person accurately without a deeper understanding.

"Master Ni, you are too worried. The Pu family's misfortune is not a big deal. My father's serious illness is also something that cannot be helped. I am very grateful that you remember this."

Ni Qingjiang smiled and said, "Youth is a real hero. Give my regards to your father."

His gaze naturally shifted to Pomo again.

"I watch the restricted fight every year. Seeing you guys, the champions of hundreds of battles, can't help but feel excited."

There were so many polite words that Pomo didn't know how to respond.
