For so reason, Ye Guichen felt a sense of intimacy when he saw Ning Chengwen.
Moreover, it was evident that Ning Chengwen had a pure nature. Although sowhat naive, he was not as sinister and cunning as Ning Anbang.
He raised his hand and gently patted Ning Chengwen’s head.
Ning Chengwen imdiately responded with a giggle, "Immortal brother blesses , immortal brother serves ."
Ye Guichen smiled slightly, and a thought arose.
"Ning Anbang, Ning Xiu Cheng, from now on, Ning Chengwen will be the Patriarch of the Ning Family. You will assist him and acknowledge as your master!" With those words, Ye Guichen grabbed Ning Chengwen’s wrist and gently probed, causing his eyes to light up in surprise.
What a martial arts prodigy.
With just this attempt, Ye Guichen discovered that Ning Chengwen’s foolishness wasn’t innate, but rather due to his exceptionally strong martial arts talent.
Of course, he was similar to Feng Wuji in terms of strength, but there were differences as well.
On the surface, Feng Wuji’s martial arts talent seed poor because his ridians were blocked, but Ning Chengwen was born with exceptionally strong ridians, which instead hindered his ntal developnt.
As long as he trained properly and released the power within him, his intelligence would naturally recover.
"Co, the immortal brother has sothing to discuss with you!" Ignoring the shock of Ning Anbang and his son, Ye Guichen led Ning Chengwen into the room.
Since Ning Chengwen called him "immortal brother," he naturally had to give him so opportunities and teach him so martial arts.
If he trained according to what he was taught, in less than three years, he might beco a Cross Training Master.
However, unlike Shui Liao, this Cross Training Master wouldn’t have to suffer because his talent was innate.
Half an hour later, Ye Guichen left the Ning Family.
Ning Chengwen watched Ye Guichen leave, tears filling his eyes, "Immortal brother, when will you co back to see ?"
"I will." Ye Guichen didn’t say much, just waved his hand and left.
Long after Ye Guichen’s departure, Ning Anbang and Ning Xiu Cheng finally ca to their senses.
Their backs were drenched in sweat.
"Cough, cough." Ning Xiu Cheng, now an elderly man, coughed twice, straining due to his exhaustion.
Ning Anbang imdiately supported him to sit down, his face full of worry, "Father, how are you?"
"My Dantian is shattered; I don’t have many years left to live." Ning Xiu Cheng smiled bitterly, then looked at Ning Chengwen and beckoned him over, "Chengwen, co here."
Ning Chengwen hopped over, "Old man, what’s up?"
"Chengwen, this is your grandfather; don’t call him that!" Ning Anbang, having survived the ordeal, abandoned any thoughts of revenge, but Ye Guichen’s departure left the Ning Family in Ning Chengwen’s hands, making Ning Chengwen the Family Head. Wasn’t this leading the Ning Family to ruin?
Looking at his foolish son, Ning Anbang felt helpless.
He understood that this might be Ye Guichen’s punishnt for them.
Ning Chengwen pouted when scolded by Ning Anbang, "Who’s grandpa? I rember grandpa died a long ti ago. This old man, I’ve never seen him before, how..."
"Shut up!" Ning Anbang was about to scold him further when Ning Xiu Cheng interrupted, "Enough, Anbang. You’ve seen Ye Guichen’s capabilities. Although he didn’t admit he was from a hidden family, his skills suggest otherwise. Since he chose Chengwen as the Family Head, there might be profound aning in it."
With that, he forced a smile and looked at Ning Chengwen, "Chengwen, what did the immortal brother say to you?"
"Oh, he just told to practice my skills!" Ning Chengwen didn’t hide anything, glancing at the stone table in the courtyard. "Oh, and he said I’ll beco really powerful, really powerful in the future."
With a leap, he approached the stone table, grabbed the stone slab, and babbled so words before exerting force with both hands, as if folding a piece of cardboard.
Crack!
The stone slab, over ten centiters thick, was snapped in half.
"Wow!"
Ning Anbang and Ning Xiu Cheng were dumbfounded.
This marble slab was not only heavy but also very hard. Even a top martial artist could break it with a punch, but snapping it like cardboard was unimaginable.
They never thought their foolish Ning Chengwen had such strength.
Ning Anbang knew his foolish son had imnse strength, but snapping a stone slab and using finesse were beyond him.
In almost an instant, Ning Anbang’s expression beca excited, and he looked at Ning Xiu Cheng.
Ning Xiu Cheng understood Ning Anbang’s thoughts.
Ye Guichen had only spoken to Ning Chengwen for half an hour, yet Ning Chengwen’s strength had dramatically increased. If this continued, Ning Chengwen’s future might surpass Ning Xiu Cheng’s.
"Mr. Ye is truly a divine being!" Ning Xiu Cheng marveled.
At this mont, all hatred vanished, replaced by awe.
...
After leaving the Ning Family, Ye Guichen headed straight to where Chen Ziran and Bai Qinghe were recovering.
As for Situ Yufeng, Ye Guichen had asked Mai Lang to detain him temporarily. He would later have Situ Yufeng lead them to Sakura Falling.
Mai Lang, having witnessed Ye Guichen’s capabilities, revered him as a deity.
"Guichen, you’re back?" Seeing Ye Guichen return, Chen Ziran joyfully threw herself into his arms like a happy swallow.
Mai Gu, knowing the relationship between Chen Ziran and Ye Guichen, arranged a beautiful villa for Chen Ziran and Bai Qinghe, with a dozen people to care for them.
Chen Ziran felt embarrassed, but despite her objections, Mai Gu insisted.
Moreover, with the treatnt from Mai Gu and Su Tong, Bai Qinghe’s injuries had stabilized, though she needed a few more days of rest before she could walk.
"Hehe, everything is taken care of?" Su Tong, having just checked Bai Qinghe’s condition, greeted Ye Guichen with a smile.
At Su Tong’s words, Chen Ziran’s face turned red. In her excitent at Ye Guichen’s return, she had forgotten there were others around. She quickly stepped aside to look after Bai Qinghe.
Ye Guichen nodded, glancing at Bai Qinghe, "Master Su, how is Sister Bai?"
"Yes." Su Tong nodded, "Miss Bai’s injuries are severe, but a force within her has protected and even repaired her critical parts. Ye, you..."
Su Tong’s curiosity was piqued. He knew Ye Guichen had a hand in Bai Qinghe’s and Mai Gu’s recovery, but the mysterious energy was beyond ordinary, not part of the Shennong Sect’s legacy. If applied in dicine, it would be a trendous advancent.
Ye Guichen understood Su Tong’s thoughts but didn’t intend to reveal the truth, instead changing the subject, "Master, I may need to leave for a while. When Sister Bai recovers, please accompany and take care of them."
"You’re leaving again?" Chen Ziran frowned, a hint of a woman’s reluctance evident.
Ye Guichen felt helpless. The Seven-colored Lotus Jade at Sakura Falling was essential to his background; he had no choice but to go.
He was about to gather all seven Seven-colored Lotus Jades.
Despite his reluctance, Ye Guichen was also a bit eager.
What could be hidden in that black box?
