Almost all the people invited have arrived, and the host elder appeared on stage. The place quickly fell silent. The presiding elder said: "Distinguished guests, we are gathered here today not only to communicate with our colleagues, relatives and friends, but also to participate in charity for the people of the world." "Before his death, old director Li Leifeng was still concerned about his successors." "Now, we have the most appropriate solution." "Sir Zhu Hou was born in the Nandou royal family and is known for his kindness and generosity. He will inherit the Salesian Kindergarten and assume the important responsibility of the director." "I would like to respectfully invite Mr. Zhu to come to the stage and speak and give me some advice." A middle-aged man with a wide body and a fat body walked onto the stage with a smile. Today, Zhu Hou is wearing a green satin robe with a jade pendant around his waist, walking steadily. The majesty of the Zhu family's royal family can be seen in every gesture. He stood on the stage, cupping his hands and clasping his fists, looking around and letting out a hearty laugh.
"Comrades, I am really scared that Zhu will take over the post of director of the Salesian Kindergarten today." "The way of charity is to benefit the common people and to be benevolent and virtuous. I deeply admire the benevolence of the former director Li Leifeng. Today I will inherit his ambition and continue to carry forward this good deed." … "In the future, our school will expand its support to orphans and even poor students. The money donated by all the philanthropists will definitely be used to save the world and help people all over the world. Here, I am willing to set an example and take the lead. Donate 100,000 spiritual stones to show your sincerity!” … Zhu Hou naturally had a purpose in holding this takeover ceremony. The main purpose is to make an official appearance and raise the first donation since taking office. As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Xuanji's voice came from the third floor: "Okay! Uncle Zhu Hou said very well. I, Zhu Xuanji, also donated 100,000 spiritual stones to congratulate uncle Zhu on his succession." Zhu Xuanji came here with the intention of supporting Zhu Hou, but now he did his duty and took action decisively. The amount he donated is very interesting, it was only 100,000 yuan, the same as Zhu Hou. This made other people who heard about it feel relieved. Instead of feeling pressure, they were eager to make the next donation. However, these people also knew the rules and did not speak out immediately. They are waiting for another person. The next moment, Zixiao Pavilion's True Golden Elixir really spoke and announced a donation of 100,000 spiritual stones. As soon as he finished speaking, the foundation-building monks rushed to shout, and the voices of donations kept coming and going. For a time, the atmosphere in the building was very lively. The atmosphere in the box was depressing. Ning Zhuo was sitting next to Zhu Xuanji. After he came in and sat down, he remained silent and did not touch the exquisite spiritual food and tea on the round table. Zhu Xuanji turned his head slightly, stared at Ning Zhuo with his golden eyes, and said with a smile: "Seeing this scene now, Ning Zhuo, how do you feel?"
Ning Zhuo raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Xuanji. To Ning Zhuo, the latter's smile was like the bloody mouth of a beast. Ning Zhuo's heart seemed to be weighed down by a huge boulder, and his eyes did not dodge in any way. He said calmly: "Of course I hope Lord Zhu Hou can do what he says. I hope that the Salesian Kindergarten in Huoshixian City can do better and better." "Yes." Zhu Xuanzhi said immediately, he was full of confidence in Zhu Hou. The smile on his face was a little deeper: "I saw your name in the donation records of Salesian Kindergarten." "You have donated several sums of money to the Salesian Kindergarten in the past." "Why don't you donate a little on such an important day today?" Ning Zhuo took a breath. He tried to calm himself down, but the pressure in his heart increased dramatically! All because he knew very well that Zhu Xuanzhi's seemingly ordinary questions hid a huge threat. If you don't respond carefully, you will get into the opponent's trap. This time, the confrontation between him and Zhu Xuanji has officially begun! The hustle and bustle of the outside world has nothing to do with him. Even the hustle and bustle only accentuated his loneliness and hardship at the moment. Zhu Xuanji was already like a skilled assassin, holding out his sword to attack. On the surface, it looks unremarkable, but Ning Zhuo is convinced that the other party must have an exquisite back-up move. Once he makes a mistake and loses every step of the way, he is likely to be suppressed from now on until there is no hope of winning anymore! Ning Zhuo frowned slightly, thoughts flashing like lightning in his mind, he quickly considered his words, and said carefully: "Be kind to yourself, and help the world. Although I am pragmatic, boy, I can still be considered ideal." "Besides, I was also taken care of by Mr. Li Leifeng when I was a child. He was kind to me." Then, Ning Zhuo changed the subject: "Of course, I also have selfish motives." "You know, I just want to separate the family." "I want to start my own family!" "I'm already doing this, but if a force wants to develop and grow, it also needs fresh blood and foreign talents." "Especially for someone like me who is just starting out, my background is too shallow, so the more new people the better!" “That’s why I’ve been donating during this time.” “There will be more donations like this in the future!” Ning Zhuo smiled, and then said with an expressionless face: "Sales Kindergarten's policies are very good. How many talents have been recruited for the righteous forces in Nandou Country." "I am from the Ning family, and I am also the righteous one. Of course I also want a share of the pie." "You see, Mr. Zhu, I paid the money. This is in line with the rules." "As for why I'm not donating today? Hey!" "Today is not the right time. I am now managing the black market, and my identity as a righteous person is not so glamorous, so I will not be a destroyer of this atmosphere."
"I want to donate, and I can achieve my goal by donating secretly in the future. Why do I have to do such a disgusting thing?" After hearing Ning Zhuo's response, Zhu Xuanji fell into a brief silence. Ning Zhuo wanted to split up and wanted to form his own power, and he, Zhu Xuanji, knew it very well. In front of him, Ning Zhuo took the initiative to ask Ning Jufan about this matter many times! Even Zhu Xuanji felt that this boy was very courageous. He dared to speak to his own Jindan ancestor in this way at the mere Qi Refining Stage. Zhu Xuanji admired Ning Zhuo. To be precise, he admired him very much. Especially after hearing Ning Zhuo's response, he understood Ning Zhuo more - the young man in front of him was definitely experienced! He knew the rules of the game of the righteous way very well. Although he was young, he was as cunning and experienced as an old fox. He has a very clear goal, cares about other people's feelings, and can empathize with them. Ning Zhuo is both hypocritical and sincere. And this kind of hypocrisy of the right path, when it falls on the young boy, actually seems to have many cute features. Ning Zhuo's response is excellent. This answer makes Zhu Xuanji's favor for him increase a lot. Zhu Xuanji laughed and broke the silence: "Even if there is selfishness, as long as you know how to repay kindness, it is the right path. Who in this world is not selfish?" "Even if I observe the people's sentiments, investigate cases, and pursue criminals all year round, a considerable part of my purpose is to protect the royal family." "Ning Zhuo, you are not bad by nature, you are upright and have a bright future. However, there will always be countless wrong paths in life. I have seen many people with good natures, but because of a difference in thought, they go astray and commit sins. When they regret it, it is too late." At this point, Zhu Xuanji stared at Ning Zhuo with a solemn face. Although he did not use any magic power, his tone and demeanor showed a strong oppressive force. Ning Zhuo took a breath and looked away, as if a flash of lightning flashed through his mind. He quickly saw through Zhu Xuanji's intention: "Is he trying to win me over?" Realizing this, Ning Zhuo's heart suddenly became active. "If Zhu Xuanji found out that I was the culprit, he would never treat me like this, but would take me down directly!" "According to his character, he should have found some suspicious points in me, but wanted to follow my line to fish out the real culprit behind the scenes!" But where is the real culprit behind the scenes? Ning Zhuo was the one who blew up the Immortal Palace, laid out the trial level, started a battle in the city to kill Qi Bai, framed his own genius Ning Xiaohui, directed the Jindan melee, bombarded the volcano to cause the monster tide to attack the city, and planned the Yunshang robbery! "I have great value in Zhu Xuanji's heart, and he wants to turn me against him. If there is really a mastermind behind this, he might even let me serve as a witness." "So, has it reached the third line of defense?" Ning Zhuo's mood fluctuated. In order to fight for the Lava Fairy Palace, he carefully compiled several lines of defense.
The first line of defense is that since the age of two, he has been constantly acting and creating various evidences, scattered in the trajectory of growth. When others investigate this, they will think that Ning Zhuo has a talent for machinery, and that it is reasonable for him to develop machinery fire monkeys, etc. The second line of defense is the identity of a young guest. The third line of defense is that Ning Zhuo was used and was an accomplice, but not the chief thief. After all, this boy is only sixteen years old and has just graduated from school. He has only the cultivation level of the middle level of Qi Refining. Ning Zhuo was slightly relieved that the situation was not as bad as the last step - using force to fight Zhu Xuanji head-on. "But what clues did Zhu Xuanji get to bypass the second line of defense and reach the third line?" Ning Zhuo couldn't think of the answer to this question. He could only guess: "Has Han Ming been arrested? Did Sun Lingtong steal the treasure, leading to clues from Yunshang?" "Or... Ciyouyuan?" Ning Zhuo lacked key information, and even though he was quite intelligent, he couldn't determine the truth. He tried his best to think, and sweat appeared on his forehead. Zhu Xuanji saw his embarrassed look, but didn't let him go, and asked: "Ning Zhuo, what do you think of what I just said?" "Do you think your own path is the right path or the wrong path?" Ning Zhuo's pressure increased dramatically! At this moment, he felt like Zhu Xuanji had stabbed his throat with a sword. How to respond? This is very critical! Espionage? If you are not careful, you will anger Zhu Xuanji. Keep silent? This is to completely give up the initiative, which will convey to Zhu Xuanji the meaning of default. In Ning Zhuo's mind, countless thoughts were generated crazily and disappeared rapidly. After just a few breaths, he already felt his mouth dry.
