Following the loud shout, Gao Fei's sword stabbing the withered hand suddenly could no longer make any progress. Then a figure flew out of the woods, but it was flying out, not coming with a sword.
"City Lord Ning!?" The Gao brothers were shocked when they saw the person coming. It turned out that this person was Ning Wuji, the Lord of Ningshui City.
"I don't know who you are, but today, they cannot die in your hands." Ning Wuji stood in front of everyone and said to the Gao brothers.
"City Master Ning, why is this?" Gao Fei didn't know why. You know, anyone who has spent time in Ningshui City knows that Ning Wuji's relationship with the Kunlun Sect is not good. Although they are not enemies of each other, there is no overlap either. But now he actually takes action to save the Kunlun people, which is really surprising.
"No reason? But today, you can't kill them." Ning Wuji did not give any explanation.
"This..., well, since City Lord Ning has said so, let's take our leave." Gao Fei knew that it would be impossible to kill these Kunlun monks and seize their resources today.
Although he didn't know why Ning Wuji came forward to help the Kunlun monks, he also heard some of the content. These Kunlun monks can be killed, but not today. But Gao Fei also knew that it would be impossible to catch such a golden opportunity again.
Although it was a pity, they had to evacuate. The other party's identity was not just a decoration, but also a proof of strength.
All city lords in the world of cultivation must at least be at the late stage of the Golden Core. Therefore, although Ning Wuji's strength among the city lords is not high, to others, what does a master in the late stage of the Golden Core mean to others.
Not to mention that one of the Gao brothers is only in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and the other is in the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Even if all the masters in the Foundation Establishment stage here are intact and in the best condition, they are unable to catch the move of Jin Dan in the later stage, which shows how powerful they are.
In their opinion, Cheng Yu's strength is indeed very strong, but that is only compared to them, the foundation-building monks. Even if he is in front of the late-stage Golden Core monks, he still has no power to resist.
The Gao brothers looked at each other and flew away with their flying swords. Seeing the two people leaving, Kushou breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Ning Wuji and said with great gratitude: "Thank you City Lord Ning for rescuing us. We will definitely come to pay our respects after a while."
"No need, I will set up a restriction around you. You can take a rest and return to Kunlun immediately." After Ning Wuji said this, he made magic seals with his hands and recited the magic formula. These Kunlun monks seemed to be covered by a transparent glass cover. Generally, a few rays of purple light flowed and flickered on it for a few times and then disappeared directly.
Ning Wuji flew away without staying long.
When Kushou saw that Ning Wuji was gone and everyone had the protection of the ban, he felt more at ease and closed his eyes and began to recover.
"Brother, it's such a pity this time. I didn't expect both of them to slip away like this." The Gao brothers flew for a while and then stopped on the ground and started walking. Gao Yuan said in frustration.
"Yes, but there is nothing we can do about it. Who would have expected that City Lord Ning would suddenly appear and that he, who has never had a good impression of Kunlun, would come to help them?" Gao Fei was also very sorry, although Ning Wuji said that in the future they would You can kill these Kunlun monks, but how will your two brothers have such a chance in the future.
In normal times, the two brothers could not defeat one monk in the late stage of foundation building, let alone four. If all these Kunlun monks were killed today, not only would they get a big deal, but the people in Kunlun would only think that they were killed by that person...
"Oops!" Gao Fei thought of this and patted his head, as if he suddenly understood something.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Gao Yuan asked in confusion.
"You said that if we killed these monks from Kunlun today, who would those people in Kunlun think did it?" Gao Fei said.
"Of course it's that person. They sent so many people to chase that person, but he never came back. How could others think it was us who made up the damage." Gao Yuan was not stupid and said matter-of-factly.
"That's right. They are all dead. Others would think that it must be that person who did it. But now City Lord Ning won't let us kill these Kunlun monks. Isn't this because we don't want that person to take the blame?" Gao Fei Speak out what's on your mind.
"Brother, you said that City Lord Ning and that person are together? If so, wouldn't it be even more important to kill them? How can we leave such troubles behind?" Gao Yuan said in confusion.
"Um... Well, they may not be together. Maybe they just know each other and don't want us to borrow a knife to kill people." Although Gao Fei didn't understand it, he spoke again.
"That's possible, but we just saw that Miss Ning Wushuang was there too. Miss Ning Wushuang seems to want to kill that person too? Isn't this unreasonable?" Gao Yuan thought of Ning Wushuang's wonderful grace. The figure was in a daze, and his face was blank for a while. It seems that Ning Wushuang's admirers can be seen everywhere near Ningshui City.
"Hey, forget it. Anyway, everything is over. We have missed this opportunity forever. We must be careful when we see these people in the future. We have shown up today. Sooner or later, they will come to settle accounts with us." Gao Fei said depressedly.
I originally went to catch fish, but instead of catching a fish, I was targeted by a fish. Is there anything more depressing than this?
In fact, the Gao brothers did guess some of Ning Wuji's thoughts, but they did not guess them thoroughly.
Ning Wuji didn't know Cheng Yu. The main reason why he didn't want Cheng Yu to be borrowed was because he cherished talents. My daughter can definitely be said to be the leader of the younger generation in this area. Although she is not as good as some young geniuses in Kunlun, she has reached the foundation building stage at the age of twenty. This qualification is definitely very good. .
But when he saw Cheng Yu, he was really surprised. He couldn't tell Cheng Yu's exact age, but he could tell that Cheng Yu was not old. He has reached the late stage of foundation building at such a young age, and it is not an ordinary late stage of foundation building. Judging from his performance just now, his strength can basically sweep through all the foundation-building monks in the world of cultivation.
However, although Cheng Yu is powerful, he still does not have the ability to fight against the golden elixir master. Therefore, while Ning Wuji did not want to be borrowed by the Gao brothers, another important reason was that he did not want to lure Kunlun's golden elixir masters to deal with Cheng Yu.
Ning Wuji had no other reason than to see a genius fall. He wanted to see how far this young man could go. People who practice Taoism pay attention to opportunities. Ning Wuji has been in the golden elixir stage for hundreds of years, but now there is no sign of becoming a baby.
He didn't know if he would have such a day, maybe he needed an opportunity. But where this opportunity lies, no one knows. Cheng Yu can have such strength at such a young age, he is definitely a person with great luck.
Forming a good relationship with such a person may be the opportunity he needs.

At this time, Cheng Yu, who was severely injured, lay on his flying sword and flew precariously above the woods.
Puff~ Puff~, Cheng Yu, who felt uncomfortable in his heart, spat out two mouthfuls of blood again, and then fell from the tree with a bang.
However, Cheng Yu did not fall to the ground, but was caught by the branches of the big tree. Cheng Yu fainted immediately, and the blood on his mouth was still falling drop by drop.
——————————————————————————
"Dad, my daughter finally came back. Where did you go?" As soon as Ning Wuji returned home, he saw his daughter running towards him coquettishly.
"Haha, how old are you girl? You still look like a little girl. How many days will you stay here?" Ning Wuji felt very happy when he saw his daughter. His daughter is his only concern, and nothing makes him happier than seeing her happy.
"Hehe, Master allowed me to stay at home for a month this time. After I returned, Master asked me to retreat. Master said I wouldn't be able to come out until the later stages of foundation building." Ning Wushuang said happily but a little depressed.
"Oh? Has the strength grown so fast in the past two years? Has it almost entered the late stage of foundation building?" Ning Wuji said happily after hearing his daughter's words.
"I don't know, that's what Master told me." Ning Wushuang shook his head and said.
"Okay, I believe that Master Huagu will not take the wrong aim. Wushuang, you must practice hard. I believe that with your qualifications, you will form a golden elixir within a hundred years." Ning Wuji said with a smile, and he had high hopes for Ning Wushuang. Too much hope.
"I also hope that day will come soon. Dad, I met a strange person today. He is just a late-stage foundation-building monk, but he can fight against several masters of the same level by himself, and a dozen foundation-building monks. A master in the middle and early stages." Hearing his father mention his cultivation, Ning Wushuang suddenly thought of that magical thief.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Do you know him?" Ning Wuji naturally knew that his daughter was talking about Cheng Yu. When he followed a group of people from Kunlun to find Cheng Yu, he was the first to see his daughter.
Seeing his daughter's angry face, he also wanted to know what happened to them, but he still held back and quietly watched the beginning and end of the entire battle.
Now that his daughter is back, he can't say anything first. Doesn't that reveal that he was also present at the time? So I pretended not to know and asked what happened between the two of them?
"I...how did I know that lewd thief?" Ning Wushuang hurriedly denied after hearing his father's words.
"A thief? What did he do to you? I'm going to kill him!" Ning Wuji said angrily when his daughter called Cheng Yu a thief.
This anger may be true or false. What is false is that he naturally sees that his daughter is still intact, and when he first saw Cheng Yu, he did not think he was such an evil person. But really, his daughter was Ning Wuji's treasure. If Cheng Yu really dared to do that kind of thing to Ning Wushuang, even if Ning Wuji admired Cheng Yu and was very optimistic about Cheng Yu, he would really kill him.
But Ning Wushuang didn't know that her father's expression was both fake and real, but she was really frightened. Her father was a late-stage Jindan practitioner, and no matter how powerful Cheng Yu was, there was no way he could block a blow from a late-stage Jindan master.
In desperation, Ning Wushuang quickly explained: "No, no, no, father, that's not the case. Don't get me wrong!"
