Ning Zhuo walked out of the dical hall.
Midway, three Golden Core Cultivators descended from the sky: Zhu Xuanji, Ning Jiufan, and Zhou Nongying.
Ning Zhuo had already anticipated the arrival of the Golden Core Cultivators and hurriedly bent to salute.
Zhou Nongying said, "Kid, what just happened in the dical hall?"
Ning Jiufan followed, "I temporarily lost my sense of you. Tell what happened in the dical hall."
Zhu Xuanji silently watched Ning Zhuo without speaking.
Ning Zhuo made a sound of surprise, then earnestly told the three Golden Core Cultivators that he had just taken a high-paying task in the dical hall and entered the Serious Injury Treatnt Room.
"Maybe the room is special and isolated from the outside," Ning Zhuo said.
The three Golden Core Cultivators exchanged a quick glance. Ning Zhuo's answer matched their earlier speculations and discussions.
Ning Zhuo looked worried and added, "Does entering the Serious Injury Treatnt Room weaken your sense of significantly? Can you provide with more protection?"
Ning Zhuo proactively requested additional monitoring thods from the Golden Core Cultivators.
This behavior made Zhu Xuanji's eyes flicker slightly.
Seeing Ning Zhuo's fearful deanor, Ning Family Ancestor Ning Jiufan snorted, "Look at you, with your pitiful aspirations."
Ning Zhuo imdiately cried out, "Ancestor, with just my asly Qi Cultivation Stage level, if I had your strength, I would roam freely and with great heroism."
"I'm a bloodline of the Ning Family. You must give more protective asures."
"How could I not understand the current situation?"
"The villain controlling the Five Elents Turret and bombarding Fire Persimmon Mountain is too fierce and ruthless!"
"What's more frightening is that we still haven't discovered who he is."
"We in the Renovation Team, having the status of Trial Disciples, can easily compete for various positions."
"Earning rits on such a large scale makes us obvious targets for the real villain; he will undoubtedly try to harm us."
"But so far, thanks to the protection of the Golden Pill Ancestors, he hasn't had the opportunity yet."
"This trip to the dical hall, entering the treatnt room alone, was like knowingly stepping into a tiger's den."
"How can that be called being afraid of death? That's clearly the courage to face death with no regrets."
These words left the three Golden Core Cultivators montarily speechless.
Ning Jiufan snorted again, "You cunning boy, slick with words."
"Why don't you ntion that only Trial Disciples can compete for positions in the dical hall?"
"Even if the real villain had a Golden Core Stage cultivation level, he couldn't get near the dical hall."
"You are safe in there."
"It was for this reason that when we lost our sense of you, we didn't rush to act."
"How can you call that facing death with no regrets?"
Ning Zhuo looked serious and chose his words carefully, "With respect, Ancestors, that's how I see it."
"Currently, we have discovered that only trial disciples are eligible for positions in the dical hall."
"But is that the absolute answer? Perhaps it's not certain."
"Right now, all the evidence points to that answer."
"But it's possible that even an outsider could find a way or ans to join the dical hall."
"After all, the Magma Fairy Palace was left by the Three Ancestral Masters, who were known for their benevolence. With their magnanimity, they wouldn't only benefit their own people without leaving a way for others."
"It's possible that the real villain has a secret way to infiltrate the dical hall and harm ."
Ning Zhuo deliberately said this to cover up the flaw that had appeared on himself.
As the captain of the Five Elents Turret, he had fully activated the turret to bombard Fire Persimmon Mountain.
This action was a flaw.
Because so far, no one had been able to join the Five Elents Turret.
Likewise, no one had been able to join the Command Platform and take on its related duties.
As of now, Zhu Xuanji and the others had not confird the fact that "only trial disciples are eligible to work in the Five Elents Turret."
Once they confird this, they would likely narrow down the real villain's identity to the trial disciples layer!
This would be extrely unfavorable for Ning Zhuo!
So, before they made such a confirmation, Ning Zhuo needed to use his speculation to mislead Zhu Xuanji and others, potentially diverting their future suspicions.
This was a foresight.
The three Golden Core Cultivators listened to his analysis, and no one imdiately refuted him.
Before receiving confirmation from the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, they indeed couldn't be certain.
After all, Zhu Xuanji had entered the Immortal Palace many tis and had tried multiple tis to contact the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, all to no avail.
Under such circumstances, Ning Zhuo claiming he risked his life was acceptable.
Zhou Nongying suddenly chuckled and ntioned to Ning Jiufan, "Brother Ning, indeed, your Ning family's descendants have produced a talent, it's truly enviable."
Ning Jiufan quickly responded modestly, "Not at all, compared to your noble Zhou Zeshen and Zhou Zhu, Ning Zhuo still falls short."
"He may seem perceptive of the situation, but don't be fooled. He only appears brave; in reality, he's greedy and just wants a reward."
Ning Zhuo's eyes lit up, and he imdiately showed a flattering smile, "Hehe, Ancestor, I'm not just doing it for myself."
