Chapter 611 You Must Still Love MeNing Zhuo felt a headache when he saw the head of the Jiao family outside the door.

In the short term, it is still necessary to maintain Jiao Ma's identity.

The hatred between him and the two ghosts of heaven and earth is too great!Once his true identity is exposed, he will inevitably attract these two people. By then, the two Yuanying Zhenjuns will chase and intercept him, and he has already lost his military position. How can he deal with the affairs of Baizhi Xiancheng? How can he join the Wanxiang Sect?"However, speaking of which, if I could join the Wanxiang Sect, this super sect would be a good umbrella for protection."

But this is still a bit far off.

From the current perspective, Ning Zhuo will have to stay in Baizhi Fairy City for some time and will need to disguise himself.

But Ning Zhuo didn't want to talk to the Jiao family's patriarch any more, so he stood guard at the door and said expressionlessly, "Some time ago, Master Sang Le You Ling was killed in an assassination attempt."

"I will try my best to avoid all suspicious persons."

The Jiao family's patriarch was so angry that his face turned red: "I'm your father! How dare you doubt me?!"

Ning Zhuo still had no expression on his face: "The traitors in this city are very good at disguising themselves. I will not step out of this door, and I will still be protected by the defensive array in the house. If you have anything to say, just keep it short."

The head of the Jiao family did not expect that he would be treated like this when he came to see his son.

"Good good."

He suppressed his anger and said, "Son, I know you are still angry with your father."

"But all you have to do is for the family."

"Your two brothers have lost their vital energy. It is disrespectful to serve the city lord with your remaining energy!"

"You are the only one who is suitable."

Ning Zhuo interrupted, "What else do you want to say? I'm very busy right now. On the one hand, I need to practice, and on the other hand, I have to handle a case for the city lord."

The head of the Jiao family sensed the intention of expelling him and tried to force a smile on his face: "My son, I am very happy that you can overcome the difficulties on your own."

"Son, you are worthy of being the offspring of my Jiao family! It is a blessing in disguise, and you are able to gain the favor of the city lord because of this."

“That’s exactly why I came here this time.”

"Just tell us what you need to handle the case, and our family will definitely assist you with all its efforts."

Ning Zhuo's heart moved, and he immediately heard the hidden meaning: "How many people from the family came this time?"

The Jiao family revealed everything: "A total of 80% of them, the remaining 10% left the Black Swamp Wetland, and the last 10% were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and stayed behind in the clan land."

As a cultivation family, when faced with a disaster, they would naturally assign personnel to preserve the fire.

But the standard of 80% is too high.

"Eighty percent?" Ning Zhuo looked at the Jiao family's Patriarch, and was quite surprised by the latter's courage. This was almost equivalent to investing all of his resources to assist the White Paper Immortal City.

The head of the Jiao family had a serious look on his face: "This is a decision that I made after discussing it with the elders for many days."

"The Yin and Yang are separated, and the ghosts coming out of the underworld are no more than Yuanying."

"The White Paper Fairy City has stood here for so long, it will not be destroyed by the ghost tide!"

"Of course, there is another reason."

"The city lord has issued an announcement to give generous rewards to all the monks who come into the city to provide support. This is the greatest effort I have ever seen in my life!"

Ning Zhuo once again understood the underlying meaning: "A big reward attracts brave men. Baizhi Xiancheng has spent all its wealth, I'm afraid it's to make you risk your lives."

"Of course. This is indeed a life-threatening price!" The Jiao family patriarch admitted generously, "But such a high price, I think it is worth it. We have received orders to train secretly first and then go out of the city to fight."

Ning Zhuo frowned, "Although the Yin soldiers are not large in scale, they are well-organized, obey orders, and have military tactics to support them. How can you be their opponent if you go out of the city to fight in the field?"

The Jiao family's Patriarch laughed and said, "My son, don't worry. We won't fight them head-on. We will just look for opportunities to launch sneak attacks, eliminate scouts, etc."

Ning Zhuo's brows slightly lifted: "This is a strategy to tire out the enemy."

After all, he had experienced the battlefield and knew that this was indeed the limit of what Baizhi Xiancheng could do.

The head of the Jiao family saw that Ning Zhuo still cared about the family, and his previous anger dissipated by half. Before leaving, he reminded him: "My son, this time the city lord has ordered that almost all villages and towns should mobilize reinforcements."

"Zangyangbefu is likely overcrowded, so you'd better be promoted to Zhuangyangyuan as soon as possible."

"If you can occupy a position in the City Lord's Mansion after your father dies on the battlefield, you will be the family's support."

At the end, the Jiao family patriarch sighed and took out a jade slip: "This is the complete collection of my clan's skills, and the patriarch's order, you keep them all. If there is any discord, you may be able to use this to revive the family in the future."

Ning Zhuo did not reach out to take it, so the head of the Jiao family simply put the jade slip and token on the ground and turned away.

Sun Lingtong saw this scene and said, "That's fine, Xiaozhu, you got a benefit for nothing."

Although he was in the camp of the evil soldiers, Ning Zhuo was able to send the situation around him to him through the thread of life.

Therefore, what Sun Lingtong saw was not much different from what he had seen before when he was in the Wanli Wandering Dragon.

Ning Zhuo sighed. The entrustment given by the head of the Jiao family made him feel complicated.

He couldn't help but wonder, if his father were alive, would he be treated the same way in this situation?Ning Zhuo is not Jiao Ma. From a third-party perspective, the head of the Jiao family actually arranged his beloved son to a relatively safe position. This is for the sake of the family and also reflects the deep fatherly love.

Ning Zhuo had an idea: "Boss, we borrowed his son's identity, which can be regarded as a favor to the Jiao family."

Sun Lingtong: "Oh? Then what do you want to do?"

Ning Zhuo: "Now that I have the Patriarch's Order, I can send messages to the members of the Jiao family. Since you are in the enemy camp, why don't you detect some intelligence and let me send it to them in time to reduce the losses of the Jiao family. It can also be regarded as repaying this favor."

Sun Lingtong shrugged, saying, "It's just something that comes naturally, so I'll do as you wish."

Ning Zhuo stroked the mechanical ring, then checked the jade slip and token, and confirmed that they were harmless before putting them away.

In addition to recording several of the Jiao family's martial arts techniques, the jade slip also contained a treasure map.

Almost the entire Jiao family came to help, and before setting off, they had made many preparations, one of which was to divide the family property among them and bury it.

Ning Zhuo had no interest in the treasure map. The Jiao family was not wealthy, and most of their wealth was distributed among family members, leaving nothing to be desired.

He also had no interest in the skills in the jade slip. After taking a quick look at it, he no longer paid attention to it.

He is currently unable to practice all three sects' supreme methods.

The practice of the physical body, with the help of the fetal breathing spirit boat, continues step by step.

Soul cultivation is Ning Zhuo’s current focus.

After all, the four Yuanying-level soul cultivation treasures are not something that ordinary cultivators can have. Moreover, the Hungry Ghost Backbiting Cauldron and the "Hell's Penal Code" were borrowed from the Lord of White Paper City, and they must be returned when they leave the city in the future.

Ning Zhuo's spiritual power continued to grow rapidly.

The city organized several night raids, which did not shake the Yin soldiers' camp, but did cause trouble and casualties to the enemy. Overall, the effect was still there.

Wen Runyu came to Ning Zhuo again and again, urging him to search for the traitor.

How can it be so easy to find a traitor? !

Ning Zhuo is very self-aware, he is not good at solving cases. Instead of wasting time doing uncertain things, it is better to firmly grasp the current opportunity and practice every minute. Wen Ruanyu was persistent, and finally expressed his thoughts when urging her: "The city lord has entrusted me with an important task, how can I slack off? Jiao Ma, if you work harder and find more information, maybe you can dig out the traitor."

It turned out that Ning Zhuo had found out the specific military intelligence through Sun Lingtong and sent a message to the Jiao family in time, instructing them to always choose the enemy's weak points when launching a night attack.

If this kind of thing happens more than once, people with ulterior motives will naturally discover the trick.

In Wen Runyu's heart, she was naturally more certain that Jiao Ma was not Jiao Ma, and that the city lord had specially investigated the traitor, which seemed to be because he relied on his unique intelligence ability.

Ning Zhuo was annoyed by the urging and made a few excuses.

Wen Runyu was worried about Baizhi Fairy City, so she wouldn't be dismissed so easily.

Ning Zhuo thought about it and offered a plan: "Senior Wen, please be patient. Whether Baizhi Immortal City can survive the ghost tide this time does not depend on the traitors, but on our city lord."

"As long as the Lord of the City recovers, solves the problem of excessive Yin energy, and has the ability to move freely, then, relying on this fairy city, who can attack it?"

Wen Ruanyu nodded: "That's true, but who made the city lord still in this state now!"

Ning Zhuo shook his head and stared at Wen Ruanyu: "Senior Wen, I don't believe that the dignified Baizhi Immortal City would not have a plan for this."

Wen Ruanyu hesitated for a moment, then sent a message to Ning Zhuo: "Well, you are now the deputy city lord, so I will not hide this plan from you."

He immediately gave a concise explanation.

Ning Zhuo looked surprised when he heard this: "Golden Swallow Fork?"

Sun Lingtong also learned about it at almost the same time, and couldn't help but laugh secretly: "Xiaozhu, this treasure has a good name, and it is especially predestined with our Cang Tie Han Jia. It should be ours."

Wen Ruanyu's plan was simple, which was to find a suitable cultivator to let the Golden Swallow Fork recognize him as its master. Then, through the Golden Swallow Fork, an extremely yang treasure, a huge burst of yang energy would be released to help the Lord of White Paper City consume her huge yin energy.

As long as the burden is lightened enough, the Lord of White Paper City will regain a certain degree of mobility.

Wen Ruanyu sighed and said, "Originally, Jin Yangzi was the best candidate for this plan."

"This person is a chess piece planted by the White-haired Dragon Lord. We knew this, but considering the overall situation, we all endured it."

"Unfortunately, the traitor got there first and eliminated him."

Ning Zhuo said: "So the traitor also knew about this plan."

Wen Ruanyu said: "The existence of the Golden Swallow Fork has long been known to the top leaders. In fact, it also represents hope and plays an important role in calming people's hearts and maintaining morale!"

Ning Zhuo clapped his hands and said, "If that's the case, then we might as well set a trap for this matter."

"If we rush around investigating the case, it will be dangerous. What if the enemy spreads a lot of false information, wasting our energy and time? What should we do then?"

"Rather than being distracted by the enemy, it is better to retreat and lay a net, waiting for the enemy to come!"

Wen Ruanyu was convinced and nodded slightly: "That makes sense."

Ning Zhuo added: "But before that, please move me to Zhuangyang Courtyard first."

During this period, too many human males were taken into Zangyang Villa, and the environment became quite noisy, which was not conducive to Ning Zhuo's practice.

"That's easy!" Wen Ruanyu agreed immediately.

In fact, if Ning Zhuo had revealed his position as deputy city lord, he could have done it easily.

Ning Zhuo successfully entered the Zhuangyang Hospital.

The temperature in the Zhuangyang Hospital is much higher than that outside.

Deep underground is a pool of fire spirit.

The Fiery Sun Hall is its main hall, the Rising Sun Monument is in its backyard, and in the front square stands a Golden Crow Burning Sky Pillar, which has the momentum of a pillar supporting the sky.

The place where Ning Zhuo moved was called Yangyanju, and many of the furniture were made of fire jade.

The atmosphere here is not good.

The afternoon Ning Zhuo just moved in, he was blocked in the back garden while taking a walk.

"Boy, I heard that you were arranged to come in by Lord Wen himself?"

"It's a good way to go, but don't get too carried away."

"I am destined to be the master of the Golden Swallow Fork!"

Zuo Han, with his left eye shining with cold moonlight, threatened Ning Zhuo with a stern face.

Ning Zhuo was about to speak when a figure suddenly emerged from behind the rockery next to him.

He was Ning Zhuo’s acquaintance, Yang Weida, who came from the same village.

Yang Weida bowed and nodded to Zuo Han and helped Ning Zhuo deal with it.

"Jiao Ma, you have finally been promoted."

"This is great!"

"We are family, so we should help each other and make these old men who bully us open their eyes wide and watch us succeed."

After saying this, he stared at Ning Zhuo with sharp eyes: "Jiao Ma, you have finished the medicine I sold you. Do you want to buy some more?"

"That's not necessary." Ning Zhuo flatly refused, turned around and left, unwilling to get entangled with Yang Weida.

He still needs to practice.

When it comes to cultivating the soul, Ning Zhuo is very diligent in his practice.

Wen Ruanyu was almost entirely responsible for setting the traps around the Golden Swallow Fork.

Ning Zhuo became a hands-off boss and lived a very comfortable life.

The arrival of a young girl disrupted Ning Zhuo's comfortable life.

Her skin was indigo in color, with dark green swirls on her joints, and fish-scale-like keratin on her elbows and knees.

Two short spiral horns protruded from her forehead, like bronze-forged curved blades.

She was wearing leather armor and had a hot body with a curvy figure and a slender waist, which made her curves smooth and exaggerated.

The girl came to him on her own initiative and stared at Ning Zhuo intently, with strong emotions in her eyes: "Xiao Ma, you still like me, right?"

Ning Zhuo immediately understood that this girl must be Qing Yan's daughter, Qing Chi, the ghost girl who was in love with Jiao Ma.

He suddenly felt a headache and shook his head expressionlessly: "It's too late to talk about whether you like me or not. Go away quickly, and don't come to see me again. Just pretend that we have never met."

The girl took a step back, her face turned pale, she covered her heart with her hands, and was in agony: "Xiao Ma, how can you be so cruel and say such ruthless words!"

"I don't believe it!" The girl shook her head, then fixed Ning Zhuo with a firm, pleading look, "You must still love me, you say one thing and mean another!"
