Ning Hao’s hair was disheveled, blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, and there was a clear footprint on his chest. A spider-web-like crack spread from the footprint, oozing large amounts of golden blood.
However, Ning Hao was indifferent, not using his true essence to repair it, but instead glaring madly at Song Jianping in Wei Fan’s palm, and cursed: "You ungrateful beasts, years ago, our Ning Ancestor helped your Imperial Family conquer eighty percent of the kingdom, yet you beasts of the Imperial Family killed our Ancestor.
All these years, you beasts of the Imperial Family have been suppressing our Ning Family, causing the decline of our family to this extent.
Now you, beast, have co to reveal the secrets of our Ning Family, destroying us..."
Reobtaining the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique was the hope for the Ning Family’s resurgence; after secretly developing for a hundred years, the Ning Family could return to its forr glory and seek justice for those of the Ning Family who were hard.
But now, the Ning Family’s reacquisition of the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique was exposed by Song Jianping, severing the Ning Family’s hope for revival once again. He was filled with the desire to swallow Song Jianping alive.
He didn’t resent Wei Fan, who injured him, but hated the Chu Imperial Family’s betrayal, and hated Song Jianping for harming the Ning Family once more.
Wei Fan, Ji Qingyue, and Zhou Shaobing all showed peculiar expressions; was the Ancestor of the Ning Family’s death, supposedly surrounded and killed by Demon Kings, not accidental but a betrayal by the Chu Imperial Family?
If true, then the Chu Imperial Family was indeed shaless.
No!
Cannot say shaless, this was already collusion with demon fiends, a grave cri worthy of extermination.
However, this was only Ning Hao’s claim; after a millennium, it was difficult to prove the truth, and most parties involved were likely dead.
"The Ancestor of the Ning Family was killed by Demon Kings, what does it have to do with my Imperial Family? Don’t slander!"
Song Jianping was startled by Ning Hao’s deanor; he had never seen such tangible hatred in soone’s eyes, and other mbers of the Ning Family seed eager to devour him alive.
"It has nothing to do with your Imperial Family? Have you not been suppressing our Ning Family all these years? You really think the Ning Family is foolish, unaware that the geniuses from Ning Family who died were the work of your Imperial Family?
Our Ning Family has declined to this extent, yet you send people to us every year.
Even this ti, you beast, coming to Ning Family is targeting Xiaoye!"
Ning Hao’s anger grew, his expression turning to despair.
He didn’t know Wei Fan’s origin, but believed it couldn’t be random that he appeared at Ning Family; now that the secret of reacquiring the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique was exposed, he thought Wei Fan couldn’t remain unmoved.
The Ning Family now had no qualification to protect the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique.
"Everyone shut up!"
Wei Fan exclaid, interrupting the conversation between Ning Hao and Song Jianping. By now, a large crowd from Ning Family had gathered, hundreds of n and won behind Ning Hao, so glaring angrily at Song Jianping, others looked shocked.
"So, the people from the Imperial Family coming every year to Ning Family wasn’t out of gratitude, but to harm our Ning Family!"
"Imperial Family’s beasts are the culprits behind Ancestor’s death!"
"We cannot let them harm Xiaoye, Xiaoye is the Ning Family’s only hope!"
...
In the Ning Family crowd, whispers arose, each eyeing Song Jianping with hatred.
Wei Fan glanced over, noticing skilled n of the Ning Family, the panel had provided clues.
Ning Family wasn’t the only ones colluding with demon fiends; it was a group.
"I, Ning Hao, humbly offer a deal; if you can spare the Ning Family today, we are willing to cultivate the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique together with you!"
At this point, Ning Hao cald down, aware that if today’s matters were mishandled, the Ning Family would face annihilation.
Bringing out the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique might offer a slim chance.
Should the mysterious Martial Venerable in front spare the Ning Family, they could leave the Chu Kingdom imdiately, potentially escaping the Imperial Family’s chase, relying on the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique to develop secretly, perhaps seeking revenge against the Imperial Family in the future.
Wei Fan cast a sidelong glance at Ning Hao: "We are not here for the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique!"
Ning Hao was stunned by the words, showing disbelief; uninterested in the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique?
All these years, the Imperial Family suppressed the Ning Family not just fearing another rise, but also searching for the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique.
"You are from the Demon Suppression Bureau?"
His attention was fixed on Wei Fan, only now seeing the Demon Suppression Bureau Captain’s armor on Zhou Shaobing.
Wei Fan shook his head: "We are Demon Hunter Patrol Envoys, investigating Ning Family’s collusion with demon fiends!"
The ntion of Demon Hunter Patrol Envoy made Ning Hao’s face instantly pale.
Had Wei Fan been from the Demon Suppression Bureau, maybe the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique would intrigue and lead to sparing the Ning Family, but as a Demon Hunter Patrol Envoy, that possibility seed unlikely.
In a mont, he understood: "Patrol Envoy, you must be mistaken. Long ago, our Ning Ancestor feasted on demon fiends, causing terror among them, ultimately killed by a joint effort of Demon Kings. How could our descendants collude with demon fiends!"
The mysterious Martial Venerable being a Demon Hunter Patrol Envoy was better; although not all Patrol Envoys are virtuous, most are righteous, unlikely to covet the Human-Demon Swallowing Demon Technique.
Unless solid proof says Ning Family colluded with demon fiends, this Patrol Envoy might spare Ning Family.
Wei Fan shook his head: "My coming here itself proves enough evidence of your collusion with demon fiends!"
As he spoke, Wei Fan’s hand reached out, causing a woman from the Ning Family crowd to be pulled out uncontrollably.
She showed an enchanting form, remarkable features, even while drawn out forcibly by Wei Fan, had an aesthetic as if a butterfly danced.
"Jingxia..."
A man beside her in the crowd exclaid, quickly rushing out to shield the woman behind him, tensely watching Wei Fan.
Wei Fan pointed at the woman: "With Soul Summoning Technique disguise, you think I cannot see she is a Butterfly Demon?"
[Hu Jingxia: Fifth Grade of Core Formation Butterfly Demon, charming Human Race, married into family]
[Kill for 500 years of ordinary power]
Wei Fan glanced at the panel, the Ning Family not only colluded with demon fiends but also took a demon fiend as a wife.
Zhou Shaobing exclaid: "She was married to Ning Xiang Ancestor, the Young Master of Ning Family; turns out she’s a Butterfly Demon, Ning Young Master married a demon fiend?"
When Wei Fan captured Hu Jingxia, Ning Hao and many of the Ning Family were already despondent.
Patrol Envoys didn’t lack evidence; they even knew who was among demon fiends.
"Ha ha... Ning Family dug its grave, colluding with demon fiends against you! Master, please annihilate them!"
In Wei Fan’s hand, Song Jianping let out a laugh, thinking the Ning Family was about to escape. He hadn’t realized Ning Family had connections with demon fiends.
"Silence!"
Wei Fan snorted coldly, his eyes gleaming, releasing a sliver of Heart Spirit causing Song Jianping to howl in pain.
Ji Qingyue sighed: "In those days, Ning Ancestor was a heroic figure, slaying demons, for the human race’s glory. Now his descendants, colluding with demon fiends..."
She felt a sense of irony!
A character killed by Demon Kings would certainly be a thorn in the eyes of demon fiends, but his descendants walked with demon fiends now.
Before, Ning Hao was fervently denying collusion; the truth slapped him quickly.
Ning Hao showed a trace of embarrassnt; but it vanished, leaving sarcasm: "How many of the Human Race did Ning Family shelter and save? How did the Human Race repay us?
All these years, the Imperial Family killed many Ning Family talents secretly; anyone stepped up for Ning Family?
If we didn’t collude with demon fiends, were we to wait for the Imperial Family to slowly annihilate Ning Family?
This was all forced by the beasts of Imperial Family.
Jealous of Ning Family’s strength over them, wary of Ancestor’s power, they leaked his whereabouts to Demon Kings, leading to Ancestor’s death.
Ning Family did nothing; they secretly killed any erging genius; how could we avoid collusion?
In the end, what differs with death; colluding gives us a chance for reckoning with the beasts of the Imperial Family."
Ning Hao’s face was red with rage.
For a mont, even Ji Qingyue was silent.
Forced to such extres, what choice did Ning Family have but collude with demon fiends.
