Mrs. Hong Ji did not immediately respond to her remarks.
Ning Xia felt that the scrutiny in the other person's eyes was stronger, so she couldn't help but wince and shook her shoulders.
"Good boy." She felt the pressure on her body drop suddenly, and her cold eyes softened.
Although she didn't know why this powerful man looked at her so critically, Ningxia felt a little relieved when the other party finally stopped staring at her like this.
This person has been acting weird since they met, with all kinds of unclear looks in his eyes. Ningxia doesn't remember when he provoked this powerful person? You can't just have an opinion about her after meeting her once.
Fortunately, Ningxia didn't feel any malice or negative emotions from the other party's attitude. Otherwise, everyone will think that they have offended the other party invisibly.
Is it a good boy at first glance? Ningxia blinked in surprise. Then Ning Xia heard a short burst of laughter from the other party, which was very light and made Ning Xia's spirit relax.
"You guys go down. I want to talk to this kid."
After hearing this, Master Qu and Lang Wu exited the reception room, leaving space for the two of them. They closed the door thoughtfully and waited at the door to be called.
Ningxia could feel that the moment they left, the room and outside the living room suddenly became silent, and no sound could be heard. The faint sound of wind that could be heard before also disappeared, as if it was isolated. It was probably a soundproofing technique that prevented people outside from hearing what was going on inside.
But what exactly are we talking about that would require soundproofing? Her heart, which had calmed down, began to feel anxious again, and was beating rapidly.
The two familiar people left one after another, leaving Ningxia alone to face an unfamiliar power. Ningxia was panicked.
"Ning Xiaoyou." The other party called her again: "Ningxia." There was an inexplicable smile in his tone, which made her a little confused.
Ningxia didn't know how to respond, and she didn't dare to respond casually, so she had to lower her head and say nothing.
"Don't be afraid, I'm just chatting and meeting you. I have no other intention, don't panic." The friendliness of the other party was very obvious.
"I...have wanted to see you for a long time. But I haven't been in seclusion a few days ago, so it's not convenient to meet you."
Ningxia was really surprised now and glanced at the other party regardless of the rules. What? Early?
Everyone likes to say things like "has been famous for a long time" when chatting. Actually it was just a kind word. In fact, the other party may not have heard of your name, but generally they will not choose to expose it.
But who is Mrs. Hong Ji? As the owner of the island, she has a noble status, holds great power, and has unfathomable cultivation. Why should she bother to chat with a little guy like Ning Xia?
What the other party said was probably the truth. He had heard her name before and it reached his ears, so he thought about meeting her. Ning Xia always felt that the topic the other party wanted to talk about should have something to do with Sword Slave.
"Thank you for the hard work on the auction. If it weren't for you, those kids like Greed to the Wolf's Mace wouldn't have been able to rectify Lianwu City so quickly."
So that’s what happened. Ningxia felt a little calmer.
In fact, it’s really a piece of cake. Just throw things into the little black box, and after passing the level, throw them into the Siwuhang Pond and forget about it. It's not the laborious and latent movements they imagined.
And they finally gave me enough reward. Two hundred thousand spirit stones and the various compensations sent in the past few days were enough. And because Zhong Huan's affairs were involved, Ningxia really didn't have much time to care about it.
In Ningxia's mind, they were already reconciled. Now I am living in someone else's dormitory to hide from trouble, but it is causing trouble for others. So Ningxia is a little embarrassed these days.
Unexpectedly, she was kind enough to remember her contribution. Such a powerful person still remembered to come to see her when the sword competition was about to begin. So what is this for? Is it to be commended? Ningxia thought inappropriately.
In fact, Ningxia didn't know that her "little effort" was actually not that small.
Before the night of Wan Wu Xing, all the forces in Lianwu City were in a subtle confrontation, and the greedy wolf was powerful in the dark, but no one knew it. Each family is arrogant and the alliance is indestructible.
The two forces confront each other and are equally matched. If there is no opportunity, it will be a protracted battle.
However, after the night of Wuxing, Greedy Wolf arrested a large number of family members in one fell swoop, including almost half of the family, and they were all involved in this matter.
With such a big handle, Tan Lang Mace took control of the situation. All the families were at a disadvantage because of this incident, and they could only watch helplessly as Tan Lang Mace moved step by step to gain more advantages.
What happened after that was even more dramatic. Although there is no direct relationship with Ningxia, there are some indirect connections.
The mother sword was stolen and Ningxia was captured. Taking advantage of this incident, they also eliminated a large number of vassal small families, which were the minions of the big families. Their prestige was severely undermined, so that the previously arrogant families have now restrained themselves.
Therefore, Greedy Wolf's victory in this "struggle" can be said to be the opportunity and trigger of the night of wanton things. Ningxia is the trigger for this fuse, and its importance is self-evident.
Otherwise, she thought that just because she was a mere "outsider", everyone could be so polite to her? joke.
To be honest, Ningxia is unlucky enough. Being involved in the center of such a "struggle" would certainly be troublesome.
"This is what the disciple did voluntarily. Those aristocratic families openly trafficked in human beings, did not take human life seriously, and walked on the smooth road calmly stepping on the blood of others... It is deeply hateful. The disciple can't stand it, so he cooperates with this matter. "
The other party's cultivation level was unfathomable, and Ningxia was not sure how to address him, so he used the disciple ceremony and called himself "disciple", which was regarded as the master he was taught by.
"You did a good job. Those people...should be punished." The other person said the last two words with a deep chill, clearly full of anger.
It seems that the rumor that the island owner, Mrs. Hong Ji, attaches great importance to the Li people's holy blood is true. Although I don’t know why such a superior person would care about the direct bloodline of the previous generation of superiors. But Ningxia can still tell whether it is genuine resentment or false injustice.
The word "to punish" reflects the other party's mentality. People are really upset about this matter.
At least at this moment, Ningxia is willing to believe that the other party is not worthy of the Li people's holy blood and is angry that they have suffered this crime.
Maybe there is such a person who is willing to uphold justice for your people and let those ungrateful people receive the punishment they deserve... Thinking about it this way, Chong Huan, would you be happier?
"The laws of heaven follow a cyclical cycle of cause and effect, and retribution will not be satisfactory. Those people will eventually pay the price, it's just a matter of sooner or later. Relax."
For some reason, Ning Xia always felt that there was something in the other person's words, as if there was some hidden meaning. It's not like he simply knows how to deal with those people, but it seems to be hinting at something.
Ning Xia shook her head slightly, shaking off this irrelevant thought.
