"Ning Chen, actually we have been waiting for you to come since we found out that you are the successor of our junior brother." Gu Su said with a serious face. Ning Chen looked at him, "Why?" Gu Su said: "Actually, Junior Brother Tao and you are the same kind of people, but they are different." "How to say?" Gu Su sighed and said: "He has a compassionate heart, but he has no ability to save sentient beings... He is obviously a killer, but he is blind to all the suffering in this world." "The position of the leader of the Ghost Shadow Sect should belong to Junior Brother Tao, but he hated his identity as a killer and left the Ghost Shadow Sect resolutely." "He said that he would rather be a chivalrous knight who does justice and eliminates violence than a killer who seeks money and kills. The money he makes is stained with blood and he spends it without peace of mind." "Junior Brother Tao has a far-sighted view than we do. He once said that the Ghost Shadow Sect seeks wealth and murder. It kills too many people and offends too many people. It is hard for our colleagues in the world to tolerate it, it is hard for the court to tolerate it, and it is hard for all living beings in the world to tolerate it." "When he left the Ghost Shadow Sect, he said that sooner or later, he would find someone with outstanding ability, unparalleled benevolence and justice, and noble character to protect the Ghost Shadow Sect."
Ning Chen's lips twitched slightly, "Do you think I am the person he said?" Gu Su nodded and said with certainty: "The Bone Hand and the Thirteen Ghost Shadow Swords have never been spread to the outside world. Junior Brother Tao taught these two skills to you, which is enough to explain everything." "First, your deeds are known to everyone in Daxuan. They are completely consistent with the twelve words of outstanding ability, unparalleled benevolence and justice, and noble conduct." "Second, your ability and identity are enough to protect the Ghost Shadow Sect." Ning Chen sighed in his heart, this is pure nonsense. When he and Tao Qizhi met, he was also in prison. At that time, he did not even join the Supervision Department. Tao Qizhi could not predict his future achievements. The reason why I taught him the Wrong Bone Hand and the Thirteen Ghost Shadow Knives was entirely to repay that favor. So it was all a perfect misunderstanding. However, this is an opportunity for him. The purpose of his coming to the Ghost Shadow Sect this time was to take him under his command and keep him for his own use. In this case, you might as well make mistakes. Ning Chen said calmly: "You think too highly of me. I don't have the ability to protect you." Tao Xiuwu said: "You are too self-effacing! Who in the world doesn't know your name, Lord Ning? You are fully capable of protecting the Ghost Shadow Sect." "I am not a Daxuan Xiaoyao Hou now. I am just a white man with no official position." Tao Xiuwu Dao: "You said that it would be easy to return to the temple." "I'm bragging." Tao Xiuwu shook his head, "Your ability is obvious to all, and the court will not abandon a capable general like you." Ning Chen smiled lightly.
"Okay! I admit, it's easy for me to return to the court. It just depends on whether I am willing... But, why should I help you?" Tao Xiuwu and Gu Su's expressions froze slightly, and they didn't know what to say for a moment. Ning Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip, then narrowed his eyes and looked at the two of them. This cup of tea was inspected by Zi Su, so he drank it with confidence. Tao Xiuwu sighed and said, "I know that Bao Qing's actions have given you a bad impression of the Ghost Shadow Sect, but I can guarantee that not all people in the Ghost Shadow Sect are so miserable." "Ning Chen, please give the Ghost Shadow Sect a chance." Ning Chen put down the teacup and did not answer Tao Xiuwu's question. Instead, he asked, "If I want to leave now, will you stop me?" Tao Xiuwu and Gu Su's expressions froze. This question is very sharp. Master Wen Kangsheng and his apprentice had offended Ning Chen, and they tried their best to persuade him to stay because they were worried that after Ning Chen left, he would lead others to destroy the Ghost Shadow Sect. But they really don't want to antagonize Ning Chen. It seemed that Ning Chen had already seen through this, so he asked this question. Ning Chen knocked on the table and said calmly: "Open the skylight and speak frankly. I know what you are worried about. It's just that you are afraid that after I leave, I will turn around and lead someone to kill you." "You are worrying too much. Ning will not vent his anger on others just because of one or two beasts." "I can give you the Ghost Shadow Sect a chance, but all future actions of the Ghost Shadow Sect must be under my command." Gu Su's expression was stiff. Ning Chen looked at him, "Don't want to?" Gu Su looked at Tao Xiuwu and asked for his opinion. Ning Chen burst into laughter, looked at Gu Su, stood up and bowed with his fists clasped, saying: "Uncle, I misunderstood. I don't want to take away your power." "Actually, the Ghost Shadow Sect is in the same situation as me... I have great power, but now I am reduced to a white body. Do you know why?" Without waiting for Gu Su to speak, Ning Chen continued: "Because Mu Xiu Yu Lin Feng will destroy it... The Ghost Shadow Sect is the number one killer organization in the world. Just like me, it is easy to be targeted." "Although I have been demoted to a commoner, my foundation is still there, His Majesty is still favoring me, and it is not difficult to rebuild the tall building... But once the Ghost Shadow Sect falls, the whole family will be destroyed, and there will be no possibility of standing up again." "So, when I say that the Ghost Shadow Sect will obey my command from now on, it is not to seize power, but to give my uncle advice at the right time and avoid risks." Gu Su nodded slightly, that's it. "Okay, as long as it is beneficial to the Ghost Shadow Sect, I will listen to you." Ning Chen smiled slightly. Tao Xiuwu and Gu Su also had smiles on their faces because Ning Chen called Gu Su his uncle. This shows that their relationship has eased.
Ning Chen stretched out and said, "Uncle, I plan to live in Ghost Shadow Gate for a while, do you mind?" Gu Su's eyes lit up, and he was delighted. "Of course, you can stay as long as you want!" What they were most worried about was that Ning Chen would take people to destroy the Ghost Shadow Sect after leaving. Now that Ning Chen took the initiative to stay, they couldn't ask for more. Ning Chen nodded slightly and said, "By the way! I don't want to see Master Wen Kangsheng and his apprentice for a while." Tao Xiuwu nodded, "Gu Su, send someone to watch them." "Yes, Master!" Ning Chen looked at Tao Xiuwu, "Master, can we talk alone for a few words?" Tao Xiuwu was stunned, and then nodded slightly. "Master, Ning Chen, then you guys chat, I'll go and get busy first!" Gu Su left tactfully. Ning Chen looked at Tao Xiuwu and asked with a smile, "Does Master know the method of breathing?" Tao Xiuwu was slightly stunned, "How did you know?" "Senior Shang Lu told Zi Su, and she told me." "So that's it!" Ning Chen was ecstatic, Tao Xiuwu was equivalent to admitting that he knew the method of breathing. He bowed and said, "I want to learn. I wonder if Master is willing to teach?" Tao Xiuwu didn't speak for a long time. Ning Chen said with some disappointment, "If Master is unwilling, then forget it!" Tao Xiuwu looked at Ning Chen, "Since this girl has told you all about this, she didn't hide the Nine Yang Decoction from you, right?" Ning Chen nodded, "I've been taking it for a while!" "How long have you been taking it?" "About half a year." Tao Xiuwu shook his head, "It's far from enough... It takes at least ten years to take the Nine Yang Decoction to achieve the true cleansing of essence and marrow." "You have only taken it for half a year. Even if you know the method of breathing, you can't refine that kind of energy." "In addition to these two conditions, there is another most important point... That is talent."
