"Greetings, Lord!"
"Lord of the Palace!"
"Greetings, Haotian Knight!"
When Ning Chuan and Lu Zhan returned to Heavenly Cloud Mountain, the Supreme Hall had already taken over the area.
Upon seeing the two emerge, the members at the summit bowed and greeted them.
At the distant horizon, a ray of brilliant sunlight pierced through the dark mountain ridge, painting it with a warm, pale golden hue.
It is now the early morning of January 29th.
There are only two days left until the Spring Festival.
"This secret realm will not be developed for the time being. Several Divine General have been summoned from headquarters to guard the bronze gate. If any unusual activity is detected, notify us immediately."
After explaining some matters, Ning Chuan did not linger and returned to the Heavenly River with Lu Zhan.
The airport was still being cleared of the debris from the battle.
Fortunately, as a spacecraft, the Heavenly River was unaffected by the runway and quickly took off and departed.
Who would you like to choose as your next opponent?
The person in charge of the Chosen Battle bowed respectfully and inquired.
He had originally prepared quite a few Divine General for Ning Chuan.
However, after seeing the online discussions last night, he realized that those Divine General were definitely not suitable.
Ning Chuan glanced at Lu Zhan and smiled, "Go directly to the Wang Family in the Central Cloud Administrative Region."
Upon hearing this, the person in charge froze on the spot and subconsciously said, "That Heavenly King Family?"
"Right."
"You... you want to challenge, no, challenge Wang Zheng Heavenly King?!"
Upon hearing this, the person in charge was so shocked that he became incoherent, and his voice trembled.
That was a true Heavenly King!
"No, I'm going to pay a visit to the Wang Family."
Ning Chuan said directly.
Upon hearing this, the person in charge breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that he had misunderstood.
However, before he could even catch his breath, he heard Ning Chuan say regretfully, "I would like to challenge him to a duel, but Wang Zheng hasn't returned to the Federation yet. We'll have to wait until after the Spring Festival to see how it goes."
The person in charge was filled with shock and disbelief.
Ning Chuan is really preparing to challenge the Heavenly King!
If this news gets out...
Absolutely earth-shattering!
Taking a deep breath, the person in charge forced himself to calm down and said, "Should we notify the Wang Family now, or should we contact Wang Family after we arrive at the Central Cloud Administrative Region?"
Ning Chuan thought for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "Now."
"Yes, I'll arrange it right away!"
The person in charge took his leave.
After he left, Ning Chuan turned his head and saw Lu Zhan staring blankly out the window of the Heavenly River, his face full of complicated emotions.
There was nervousness, anticipation, and apology...
There was even some fear.
Of course, Ning Chuan knew that it wasn't because Lu Zhan feared the Wang Family.
Having not seen his wife for many years, whom he had longed for day and night, he was about to meet her again. For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little disbelieving, fearing that it was all just a mirage.
Similar to the feeling of trepidation upon returning home after a long journey.
" Uncle Lu, don't be nervous."
Ning Chuan raised an eyebrow and smiled, teasingly saying, "If we join forces, even Wang Zheng is no match for us; we can just suppress him with overwhelming force!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhan withdrew his gaze, smiled, and said, "My mindset is alright, it's just... eighteen years..."
He's not that old, not even fifty yet.
For him, eighteen years occupied a large part of his previous life.
As the two were talking, the person in charge, who had just left, returned and respectfully said, "Elder Wang Kun of the Wang Family requests to speak with you. Would you like to establish communication?"
"Connect me."
Ning Chuan did not refuse.
When he chose when to contact the Wang Family, he had already anticipated that Wang Kun would most likely call.
Moreover, the topics discussed will be related to the Divine Wave Meditation Method.
"OK."
Upon hearing this, the person in charge turned and took his leave. After he left, Wang Kun's 3D projection immediately appeared.
"Greetings, Hall Master Ning!"
Wang Kun adopted a very humble attitude, with a smile on his face, and bowed in greeting.
It was clear that his face was gaunt and haggard, much more so than when he auctioned off the mental cultivation method.
"What is it? Just say it!"
Ning Chuan sneered, too lazy to play along with Wang Kun. He hadn't forgotten the other man's face that night.
Upon hearing this, Wang Kun's smile froze, but it vanished in an instant. He said, " Hall Master Ning's visit to the Wang Family, in my opinion, is not for your own sake, is it? You want to reunite the Haotian Knight' family during the Spring Festival, right?"
Having lived for hundreds of years, his judgment was very accurate.
Ning Chuan narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing within them, and said calmly, "What, you want to stop me?"
"Absolutely not, I completely agree with your approach!"
Wang Kun quickly shook his head and smiled, "In fact, as long as you're willing, Wang Ya and her daughter Lu Mengyue can immediately regain their freedom Spring Festival."
Ning Chuan revealed a mocking smile, and said sarcastically, "You think you can make that decision?"
Wang Kun said solemnly, "I really can't handle Lin Fengyang's situation, but he's currently punished by being stationed in the North Sea Domain and is not allowed to return to the Federation for seventy years. By the time he comes back, he will no longer be a match for you."
"As for the ancestor, I will take full responsibility and accept all punishment. All you need to do is..."
Wang Kun coughed lightly and stopped talking.
"If you haven't thought it through, then forget it!"
"Don't--!"
Wang Kun looked embarrassed and quickly spoke up, saying, "I need a copy of the Divine Wave Meditation Method to appease the Ancestor's anger!"
But don't worry, it won't be for nothing!
"Based on the prices of other Heavenly King, the Wang Family will add another 20%!"
Ning Chuan said coldly, "What if I don't give it to you?"
Wang Kun gave a wry smile and said, " The Supreme Hall you created already has Heavenly King -level combat power. Even if I try to stop you, you can still break into the Wang Family."
Then, he changed the subject, saying, "But Spring Festival is a day for family joy. Forcibly intruding into the Wang Family will inevitably change its nature."
At this moment, Lu Zhan's gaze fell on Ning Chuan, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about that. As long as we can see Ya'er and Mengyue, the method doesn't matter!"
"It must be the Haotian Knight."
Upon hearing this, Wang Kun's expression changed slightly.
He could only see Ning Chuan's 3D projection.
Wang Kun turned his body to face the direction from which the voice came, and said bitterly, "I know that my behavior that night was extremely despicable."
But that was my personal behavior, and had nothing to do with my ancestors.
You should still remember that when Lin Fengyang was promoted to Heavenly King, he forced you to fight to the death, and it was he who stepped in to stop you.
I will repay the favors I owe myself.
Lu Zhan said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Wang Kun's face showed worry. He then looked at Ning Chuan and said, "You should have already seen my condition."
I haven't slept a wink for the past month.
Living in constant fear, the pain she endured was far more intense than that of Lin Xiaoyun, who was critically injured and on the verge of death that night!
If you're not satisfied, you can beat me to a pulp...
Ning Chuan waved his hand, interrupting Wang Kun's complaints, and said coldly, "Alright, prepare a valuable treasure of equal value."
"You mean... it's possible to trade?!"
Wang Kun was overjoyed and was about to express his gratitude when Ning Chuan abruptly ended the communication.
" Xiao Ning, you don't need to do this."
Lu Zhan sighed.
Ning Chuan spread his hands and said, "It's nothing. This matter has nothing to do with Wang Zheng. The main reason I refused to trade with him that day was because I couldn't beat Wang Kun, so I taught him a lesson. But now..."
" Wang Kun doesn't want the experience of being severely injured and near death. Once we get there, we'll grant his wish!"
Ning Chuan grinned.
Hundreds of thousands of miles away.
The Wang Family.
As he watched the disappearing 3D projection, the joy on Wang Kun's face, along with his haggard appearance, vanished instantly.
A sinister glint appeared in his eyes.
"Once the Martial Star recovers, I only need to take one step to advance to the Heavenly King. Even the Ancestor is no match for me, let alone you!"
