I'm a demon cultivator
Chapter 24: Tianjian Mansion, Young Master Jian
Ning Jiaheng showed a high talent for cultivation since he was young, so when he was five years old, he was noticed by a well-known elder and was recruited as a closed disciple.
He learned to read and write at the age of three and began to practice at the age of four. This was a privilege only the second generation of the major cultivation sects could enjoy.
There were many people like Ning Jiaheng who started practicing in their teens.
Ning Jiaheng, who started practicing at the age of five, can be said to have surpassed more than 90% of people with the same background. As for casual cultivators, they are even less qualified to compare with Ning Jiaheng.
Moreover, it is extremely rare for children of casual cultivators to start practicing at a very young age.
This is because casual cultivators are worried that their children are too young and will be calculated by others, so that they will reveal their own cultivation methods or other family secrets. Therefore, the age at which children or relatives of casual cultivators start practicing is usually after the age of eleven or twelve.
Children of this age have begun to understand things, and if they are well educated since childhood, they also have a strong ability to discern.
In short, it is not easy to deceive.
"We can't kill this man."
The old man of the Ning family also wanted to kill the remnants of the Tan family. After all, every time a letter came, at least fifty Shangxuan Great Seals were required. Although their Ning family was the overlord of Xizhou City, they did not have many Shangxuan Great Seals, and could only collect 10,000 every year.
Although the number was as high as 10,000, 60% of them were to be sent to Ning Jiaheng's master!
Otherwise, how could Ning Jiaheng practice so smoothly?
Of the remaining 40%, more than half had to be taken out to arrange gifts, such as ice tribute, carbon tribute, homesickness tribute, filial piety tribute...After this round, it would be good to have 1,000 left.
And these 1,000, their Ning family children also have to practice!
Divided left and right, even as the head of the family, he could only leave two or three hundred Shangxuan Great Seals.
Then, every letter would cost at least 50!
How could anyone bear this!
This was to be left for his son to practice.
"Dad, why can't we kill him? My master is Master Wangyue. As his disciple, there are not many people in this world that I can't kill!" Ning Jiaheng was immediately dissatisfied when he heard what Grandpa Ning said.
And he did have the confidence to say so. Although Master Wangyue was not from Tujian Mountain or Tianjian Mansion, he was the top ten sword cultivators in the current hundred years in Jiawu Realm!
His skills were unfathomable, and he was praised as the cultivator who had the most hope of breaking the limit of cultivation and becoming a near-immortal figure after the year when the myth began to disappear three hundred years ago.
Therefore, as the last disciple of Master Wangyue, Ning Jiaheng had the confidence to say this.
"His name is Tan Shuchang, and he is the last son of the former Prime Minister Tan." Grandpa Ning sighed. The Ning family was able to rise because of Prime Minister Tan. This is something many people know.
That year, he, who was born in a poor family, first entered the officialdom. Because he offended a powerful son, he could not get ahead for nearly ten years. Later, when Prime Minister Tan accidentally found out about his affairs, he transferred him to another position, which led to his rapid rise.
He could choose not to repay this favor, or pretend that he didn't know, but he had to show it to others!
Otherwise, would the Dong family still be willing to support their Ning family?
The past is a lesson for the future.
"The remnants of the Tan family?" Ning Jiaheng was valued by Mr. Ning, so he naturally knew his own affairs. Hearing this, he also realized the trouble.
At this time, Mr. Ning handed the letter in his hand to Ning Jiaheng.
Mr. Ning wanted his son to remember Tan Shuchang's handwriting, and when he faced such a request in the future, he would give it with pain.
Who would have thought that after Ning Jiaheng took the letter and glanced at it, he laughed.
"Jiaheng, why are you laughing? Do you have a good idea?" Mr. Ning asked, because this was the third letter to be put on the Xuan seal.
He gave fifty the first time, seventy the second time, and he really didn't want to give the third time.
It's not such a big loss to send away the plague god!
Moreover, does this Tan have a serious illness that he only wants his Ning family? Are other families not acceptable? If you don't know, tell him and he can help introduce them!
"My master asked me to go to Tianjian Mansion in Chuzhou, because the eldest daughter of the Dong family has reached the age of marriage. I just want to show this letter to Master Jian, who is famous for hating evil!" Ning Jiaheng said with a smile.
"Master, are you going to help you matchmake?" Old Master Ning was overjoyed when he heard this.
Although he has a son who has married into the Dong family, the old daughter is too old, two generations older than his son.
Therefore, when others mention his Ning family, they always laugh a little.
And now, if his youngest son can get married with the eldest daughter of the Dong family, then his Ning family will soon dominate Luozhou. Who would dare to laugh at the Ning family then?
"Master didn't dare to guarantee it, he just told me to try. But, isn't it easy to coax a little girl of 18 years old?" Ning Jiaheng said confidently.
"Hahaha, my son is right. You are the last disciple of Master Wangyue, and your status is not inferior to that of the eldest daughter of the Dong family. You two are a pair made in heaven!" Old Master Ning was also very confident in his youngest son. He immediately arranged for someone to send Ning Jiaheng to Chuzhou.
Ning Jiaheng did not refuse, because Luozhou was far away from Chuzhou, separated by two states. He also came to ask his father to arrange the trip, so he went home specially.
There is a strange mountain and sea beast in the Jiawu Realm that can penetrate mountains and rocks. If it encounters a place with water, it can instantly move from one side to the other.
According to the characteristics of this mountain and sea beast, someone has refined a magic weapon called "Shui Ling Zun". When placed in a place with water, it can teleport people across hundreds of miles.
However, using a magic weapon like "Shui Ling Zun" is very expensive. Ning Jiaheng spent 300 Shangxuan Great Seals just to rush from Luozhou to Chuzhou!
As soon as he arrived in Chuzhou, Ning Jiaheng drove the flying sword and rushed to Tianjian Mansion.
Half a day later, Ning Jiaheng arrived at his destination. He first found his eldest brother who married him, and then was introduced by his eldest brother, and soon he was entertained by the Dong family.
Because Ning Jiaheng was not only a relative by marriage, but also a disciple of Master Wangyue, the Dong family had extremely high etiquette for entertaining Ning Jiaheng.
However, even so, Ning Jiaheng did not see the eldest lady of the Dong family.
He only saw the sword master!
Young Master Jian, the brother-in-law of the current Dong family patriarch, is also one of the two most talented swordsmen in the Dong family.
The other is the eldest daughter of the Dong family, the niece of Young Master Jian.
Yes, niece.
Because the current Dong family patriarch is Young Master Jian's brother-in-law. However, although he is a son-in-law, the Dong family also gives him enough respect and even supports him to sit on the position of patriarch.
The banquet for Ning Jiaheng ended quickly, and after the banquet, Young Master Jian went to the backyard of the Dong Mansion as soon as possible.
"Guess who Ning Jiaheng mentioned when I met him just now? Hehe, it was written to your little lover, but unfortunately, this letter is not written to you."
