"Xuanhuang Mother Qi..." Ning Zhuo pondered for a moment.
He knew that this kind of treasure material was rare in the world and possessed unique uses—it could be converted into any treasure material in the world!
That’s why it’s called "Mother Qi".
Whether it’s a cultivator or spiritual nature, they are essentially treasure materials. They’re just more complex, for example, the human body has organs, blood, flesh, and tendons, etc.
Xuanhuang Mother Qi can not only nourish spiritual nature, but theoretically, it can nourish all things in the world.
Ning Zhuo’s heart stirred slightly: "If I could obtain Xuanhuang Mother Qi, could it help my mother?"
"Xuanhuang Mother Qi is extremely precious, to exchange for it would be very difficult."
Ning Zhuo had very little expectation of this, but he still thanked Zhu Fenxiang.
The Earth Guardian True Monarch withdrew the Divine Sense and Divine Power and left the place. Before leaving, He also advised Ning Zhuo to prepare a Divine Statue as soon as possible and keep it on his person, so that in future battles, he could call upon His name.
This treatment once again stirred a wave of emotion in Zhu Fenxiang’s heart.
She led Ning Zhuo away from here and took him into the study.
As soon as Ning Zhuo sat down, he expressed readiness to sign an alliance pact with Zhu Fenxiang.
Zhu Fenxiang waved her hand and shook her head, indicating it was unnecessary.
"We’re already on the same side." Zhu Fenxiang smiled.
Ning Zhuo had become a follower of the Earth Guardian True Monarch, although this level of faith was highly questionable.
But because of this, Ning and Zhuo’s relationship had become closer, indeed, their relationship had undergone a significant change.
Zhu Fenxiang had been meticulously nurtured since childhood, she was an elite of a great family. She knew how to bet, naturally, she also knew how to win people’s hearts.
Ning Zhuo naturally knew such a righteous path, but inevitably, his complexion softened a bit.
Zhu Fenxiang’s attitude changed, naturally because of the Earth Guardian True Monarch.
"Why did the Earth Guardian True Monarch actively become my Protective God?" On this point, Ning Zhuo also had guesses.
"Perhaps, He sensed the magic power aura of the Lord of Wangchuan from Mengye Tiger?"
"If it led me to gain the favor of the Earth Guardian True Monarch, then the benefits from this would still be part of the spoils from the battle in Wangchuan Underworld."
Ning Zhuo communicated secretly with Sun Lingtong through Life Hanging Thread.
Sun Lingtong frowned slightly, her small face full of worry: "If that’s the case, the inside story involved is much more complicated, and also more dangerous."
After all, it involves Transforming Spirit Level existences, and also involves the current power struggle between Wangchuan Underworld and Ghost Fire Underworld.
Continue talking with Zhu Fenxiang.
Ning Zhuo stated: after returning this time, by tomorrow at the latest, he would make an announcement: sever ties with Situ Xing and formally reach an alliance with Zhu Fenxiang.
Zhu Fenxiang’s gaze flashed, and after hesitating for a moment, she slightly shook her head: "No need to rush."
"Daoist Fellow Ning Zhuo, after thinking it through — why should we reveal our intentions so openly?"
"Wouldn’t it be better to have someone as talented as Daoist Fellow Ning Zhuo secretly assisting us?"
"While collecting intelligence, I discovered something very interesting."
"The group organized by Situ Xing is divided into powers according to seating order. He currently occupies the first seat, Shen Xi the second, Lin Jinglong the third, but Daoist Fellow Ning Zhuo, you are not included."
"If you were to become the one sitting in the first seat, could you lead this group?"
At this point, Zhu Fenxiang smiled slightly, full of meaning: "I also found out, Daoist Fellow Ning Zhuo, that you have a good relationship with Shen Xi and Lin Jinglong, and have hosted them multiple times."
"I wonder if Daoist Fellow Ning Zhuo is interested in my suggestion? In my opinion, you are far more qualified than Situ Xing!"
Zhu Fenxiang spoke these words, but they were not flattery, rather they came from the heart.
Though Ning Zhuo hadn’t proven himself in the martial arts competitions of the arena. However, Lin Jinglong and the demon subordinates of Pi Fujie had all suffered losses at his hands.
These achievements, Zhu Fenxiang knew.
As Ning Zhuo’s reputation rose, more cultivators would come to realize it.
Zhu Fenxiang also knew key information unknown to the public — the Earth Guardian True Monarch had already become Ning Zhuo’s Protective God. Her biggest trump in battle, also Ning Zhuo’s trump card.
"At least, if I were to fight Ning Zhuo, I wouldn’t gain anything good."
Zhu Fenxiang couldn’t help but imagine herself.
A thought flashed through her Divine Sea: "If I and Ning Zhuo called upon God at the same time, who would He assist?"
Zhu Fenxiang couldn’t help but tremble with fear, subconsciously stopping this thought.
Upon hearing Zhu Fenxiang’s eagerness for Ning Zhuo to break ties with Situ Xing, instead, putting forth a quite constructive suggestion, Ning Zhuo hesitated.
"This is indeed a good plan, but I need to think carefully." he said.
Zhu Fenxiang smiled slightly: "No hurry, no hurry."
She then invited Ning Zhuo to stay for a meal.
Ning Zhuo politely declined.
"As Daoist Fellow Zhu Fenxiang just mentioned, we are allies, not lacking this meal. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"Moreover, if we are to secretly assist Daoist Fellow Zhu Fenxiang’s plan, we should remain discreet and avoid much contact. The more frequent and longer the contact, the lesser the benefit to the plan."
At this point, Ning Zhuo couldn’t help but rejoice: that he hid his identity when he came looking for Zhu Fenxiang this time.
"But there’s a small flaw." His eyes flashed, wanting to remind Zhu Fenxiang vocally.
But on second thought, he did not speak up.
After swiftly bidding farewell to Zhu Fenxiang, Ning Zhuo took the rescued Mengye Tiger and quietly returned to his Bluestone Cave Mansion.
