Chapter 771: Chapter 251: Cultivation Level Advancement
For a moment, many people cast envious and jealous looks at Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhuo and Sun Lingtong exchanged a glance and smiled faintly. Ning Zhuo took the initiative to step forward and retrieve the housing plaque from the silver-robed steward’s hand.
The silver-robed steward nodded slightly at him and did not say anything in public.
Soon, after distributing all the housing plaques and leaving a remark, he impatiently turned around and left: “You take the housing plaques and move in according to the number. If there’s any mistake, you will bear the consequences.”
The housing plaque is a Magic Artifact. Ning Zhuo infused his Divine Sense into it, followed its guidance, and quickly arrived at a small house.
The door was slightly ajar.
Ning Zhuo and Sun Lingtong exchanged another glance, both raising their guard.
Sun Lingtong took a careful step forward and pushed the door open cautiously, only to see someone already waiting inside the house.
Sun Lingtong exclaimed in surprise and quickly offered a salute.
Ning Zhuo also entered the house shortly afterward to pay respects, “Lord Qing Yan!”
The visitor was Qing Yan, the Nascent Soul Level Ghost Clan cultivator who had voluntarily gone to support White Paper City earlier.
Qing Yan saw Ning Zhuo, nodded, stood up, and walked in front of Ning Zhuo: “There was a riot today, and the paper statue at the south gate was burned down.”
“In the coming days, the entire White Paper Immortal City will be under strict control. You all must be careful and not make any mistakes.”
“Be aware that the favor I did for you to arrange the steward of Cangyang Villa has cost quite a bit of money.”
“If you violate the regulations of White Paper Immortal City and get thrown into prison, I won’t have the means to get you out.”
A few simple words suddenly made Sun Ning understand why they were allocated to the Grade A Number One room.
Ning Zhuo hastily bowed to express gratitude, and then, almost unnecessarily, added a sentence: “Even if it’s not a top-grade room, I am not someone who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and I can accept it.”
Qing Yan chuckled: “Now that you have become a male concubine, you should stay here well.”
“Don’t even think about my daughter. You two are not suitable!”
“According to the ‘Three Jiao True Yang Scripture’ of your Jiao family’s cultivation technique, you are bound to stand out among the male concubines. In no time, you might be promoted to Zhuangyang Villa.”
Ning Zhuo’s heart stirred slightly, and he couldn’t help but think: “Zhuangyang Villa? So besides Cangyang Villa, there are other villas.”
“And from Qing Yan’s words, it seems the level of Zhuangyang Villa is higher than Cangyang Villa.”
He is very sensitive to every piece of new information.
“Live well in this house; it is crucial for a new male concubine.” Qing Yan said.
Ning Zhuo was silent for a moment before speaking: “How much did it cost?”
Qing Yan laughed heartily: “You may not suit my daughter, but after all, you were raised in our village. Your old Jiao family has always been a big household in the village. Don’t bother asking about the money I bribed the chief steward with; consider it a departure gift I am giving you.”
“I’m leaving.”
Before leaving, Qing Yan patted Ning Zhuo’s shoulder and then crisply walked out of the house.
After Qing Yan left, Ning Zhuo completely closed the door.
He and Sun Lingtong checked the house thoroughly two or three times before stopping.
The two communicated using Divine Sense.
Sun Lingtong proudly said to Ning Zhuo: “See, Little Zhuo, my plan was correct. Disguising as Jiao Ma, you got so many benefits for free from Qing Yan, hmph.”
Ning Zhuo nodded: “However, that’s also due to our luck, coincidentally picking this dead man.”
Sun Lingtong said: “Alright, I’m more curious about what’s special about this Grade A Number One room. Quickly use the room plaque and try it out.”
The room plaque does not only function for communication but also controls the power of the house’s Array.
Ning Zhuo immediately manipulated the plaque to activate the Array here.
There are multiple Arrays, with the Spirit Gathering Array being very effective for cultivation, and including the Anti-corrosion Array, Ice Fresh Array, Shadow Array, Silence Array, and more.
The two arrived at the basement.
It was very spacious, with array patterns and talismans densely packed, appearing to be the most essence-filled place.
Ning Zhuo immediately operated the Magic Artifact housing plaque.
Boom…
After a loud rumbling sound, the round central section of the floor shifted to the sides, revealing a huge well opening.
Woo woo woo…
A chilling whistle emanated from the well, instantly causing the temperature in the basement to plummet as Yin Qi surged in rolling waves.
The Yin Qi soon became dense enough to be visible to the naked eye, like a ghastly green wind perpetually rising from the well opening.
Ning Zhuo and Sun Lingtong had long since cast their attentive gazes on the well opening, both showing a trace of astonishment.
“Such a vast flow of Yin Qi…”
“What kind of place is this?”
“According to the specialized message left in the plaque, all this Yin Qi originates from the White Paper City Lord!”
“Without witnessing it myself, I couldn’t have believed it. What exactly is the identity of the White Paper City Lord to accumulate so much Yin Qi?”
“Isn’t she just a Nascent Soul Level cultivator? This amount of Yin Qi seems to be at the Divinity Transformation level…”
Sun Ning constantly discussed.
Both are experienced individuals who have personally witnessed the fight between Du Tiechuan and the Ginseng Whisker Dragon King, having seen what it means for a Divinity Transformation Level expert to strike!
The Yin Qi in the well is overwhelmingly abundant, evidently meeting the Divinity Transformation level, and not the kind of ordinary Divinity Transformation level, but a power it can bear.
This made Sun Ning involuntarily look at the White Paper City Lord in a new light, while simultaneously recalling the words spoken by the White Bone Crocodile Demon when they were attacked on the segment of the Underworld River.
The gist of those words was that the White Paper City Lord had accumulated so much Yin Qi over the years that it had become overwhelming, far beyond the help of the current Yang Energy supply.
The White Paper City Lord’s condition was worrying; she was not doing well!
This is the biggest reason for the City Covering Alliance’s blatant action.
