Chapter 369 -367: Ning Lang, I will definitely make you regret this!
“Peng——”
After taking a punch full of Dragon Demon Power, Zhao Xin’s body shattered its Sword Aura in an instant, transforming into a mere afterimage that plummeted into the jagged rocks behind him.
“You can’t even withstand a single punch, and you have the gall to strut around?”
Ning Daoran stepped into the void, his body brimming with Blood Qi Power, presenting the appearance of a mid-stage Embracing Elixir Martial Immortal.
“You… You dare to kill me? My family’s Ancestor will never let you get away with this. Once he achieves Nascent Soul…what are you, Ning Daoran, in comparison?”
“Your family’s Ancestor is your family’s Ancestor, you are you.”
Ning Daoran said, “I, Ning, have always despised those who say ‘this and that person is so and so, if you dare, compare yourself with them.’ I only compete with you, not anyone else.”
As he spoke, strands of golden Fist Power began to appear around Ning Daoran’s right fist, and he said with a faint smile, “As for whether I dare to kill you or not, you’ll know very soon.”
The next second, a thunderous punch roared down!
Zhao Xin originally planned to dodge, but in the blink of an eye, he was overpowered by a Golden Core Spiritual Pressure!
His eyes widened in disbelief. Was this also a Golden Core Middle Stage Spiritual Pressure? How could Spiritual Pressure be so terrifying? Even though he himself was at the Golden Core Middle Stage, he was so suppressed that he couldn’t move!
“Sword… come…”
Zhao Xin could barely breathe, squeezing out two words from his throat. Instantly, two Flying Swords appeared, crossing in front of Zhao Xin’s chest to protect their master.
“Peng!”

A punch fell, and the roar of a Dragon echoed to the skies!
The two Flying Swords spiraled out, embedding themselves in the rock peaks, while the spot where Zhao Xin was lying was punched into a web-like depression, rubble flying in all directions. The moment the Fist Power was completely unleashed, the ground around them suddenly sank!
At the harbor, many cultivators, merchants, and hired workers of Liuhua Island were dumbfounded. None had imagined that the seemingly cultured and peaceful Island Master could be so formidable, easily overpowering the Golden Core Middle Stage Sword Cultivator of the Zhao family, who appeared godlike in their eyes, with just two punches!
“Ugh… Ugh…”
As the dust settled, a ragged body lay in the web-shaped depressed ground—it was Zhao Xin!
At this moment, his chest had been punched into a pulp, and he was still clinging to life solely through the tenacity of a Golden Core cultivator. His eyes staring at Ning Daoran, he said, “You… you’ll definitely meet a bad end… The Ancestor will surely… surely…”
Ning Daoran, wordless, simply stomped down with his foot!
“Crack!”
Zhao Xin’s head was stomped like a watermelon, squashed underfoot into a bloody mess.
…
“Master…”
Sui Zhuyue stood not far away, her mouth slightly agape in shock. She knew all too well how powerful Zhao Xin was, and to think that her own master had killed him with merely three punches…
One must know that Ning Daoran was a Golden Core cultivator, and his Immortal Law was certainly even more powerful than Martial Artist Fist Techniques.
Seeing it like this, the possibility that Ning Daoran together with True Monarch Du E had slain a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator of Sangyu Country seemed all the more credible!
“You… you…”
Not far away, a young Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator hovered on his Flying Sword. He was a scion of the Zhao family, who had happened to witness the entire spectacle of Ning Daoran defeating Zhao Xin with three punches.
“So, how about it?”
Ning Daoran took out a piece of cloth and gently wiped the blood from his fist, continuing, “Zhao Xin disguised himself as a Robbery cultivator, destroyed Liuhua Island’s merchant ships, killed Liuhua Island’s cultivators and merchants; this matter, I, the Island Master, have thoroughly investigated. Originally, out of regard for the Zhao family Ancestor’s reputation, I wouldn’t have gone so far. Yet, despite this, Zhao Xin dared to come to the island challenging the Island Master to a skill contest…”
He revealed a set of white teeth, “The Island Master didn’t hold back his strength, and unfortunately, Zhao Xin was killed in three moves. I hope the Ancestor of the Zhao family doesn’t harbor resentment. If he wishes revenge, I, Ning, am always ready to welcome it. Go back now, and tell your family’s Ancestor exactly that.”
“Alright…”
The Zhao family scion clenched his teeth and flew away on his sword, his speed incredibly fast as if he feared Ning Daoran catching up and killing him with one punch.
“Master.”
Sui Zhuyue softly said, “After this, our Liuhua Island will truly be in trouble. How formidable is the Ancestor of the Zhao family—would he let go of the murder of his family’s once-in-centuries talent so easily?”
“No need to worry, meet the soldiers with a block, counter the water with earth.”
Ning Daoran calmly stated, “As the guardian of Liuhua Island, I fear not these trials and tribulations. Let everything that comes my way, I will solve it all together.”
“Mmm~~”
Sui Zhuyue pursed her red lips, suddenly her cheeks blushed again – her master’s words at this moment gave her an overwhelming sense of safety.
…
The result was unexpected.
Half a year has passed, and there had been no movement from the Zhao family. It seemed that the Ancestor of the Zhao family had no intention of avenging Zhao Xin, remaining dormant in the family’s temporary residence without showing any action.
And according to intelligence gathered by Sui Zhuyue’s people, it seemed that the Zhao family Ancestor was indeed preparing for the Nascent Soul consolidation, hence unwilling to be distracted by Zhao Xin’s death.
Ning Daoran remained indifferent.
He had met the Ancestor of the Zhao family before. Although the Ancestor’s cultivation was profound, his mental state was somewhat lacking and the chances of successfully achieving Nascent Soul were very slim.
Instead of the Zhao family Ancestor, it was Nangong Rou who showed up.
Half a year ago, a Jiedan Phenomenon rose on Liufeng Island, followed by the news that Nangong Rou had attempted Core Formation.
Soon news broke out that Nangong Rou had good fortune and successfully achieved Core Formation. She had become a Golden Core Early Stage Cultivator, attracting many to extend their congratulations, including Huang Yihan.
Although Ning Daoran was in seclusion and couldn’t attend, he had Sui Zhuyue bring some Elixir Pills as a congratulatory gift.
At this moment, Nangong Rou, who had recently achieved Core Formation, unexpectedly set foot on Liuhua Island to meet with Ning Daoran.
In the receiving hall of the Island Master Cave Mansion.
Ning Daoran served up Spiritual Tea with a smile and said, “I, Ning, was in a critical stage of seclusion some time ago, hence I couldn’t attend the Fairy’s Core Formation celebration personally. I hope the Fairy won’t take offense.”
“Where such words come from, Fellow Daoist Ning?”
Nangong Rou responded with a smile, “You and I have known each other for many years; naturally, I would not take such matters to heart.”
With that, she sent a tender, autumnal glance his way and said, “Fellow Daoist, for this visit, I have a significant matter I wish to discuss with you.”
“Please speak, Fairy.”
“In bygone years, Fellow Daoist was at the Golden Core Middle Stage while I was but a junior at Foundation Establishment; thus, I dared not aspire too high. Yet, my fondness for Fellow Daoist was immense. Past actions were no more than my mistaking Fellow Daoist for an ordinary male cultivator, a mistake on my part. And now… once again Nangong Rou musters up the courage to ask you, if you would be willing to become Daoist couple with me?”
Her face was earnest, with a touch of pitiful vulnerability, as she said, “Should Fellow Daoist nod in agreement, Nangong Rou’s life and world will be solely yours. All that I am would be yours, and I am willing to support you wholeheartedly through the long years to come, without a second thought.”
It’s these things again.
Ning Daoran maintained a calm demeanor, though he had guessed as much when Nangong Rou arrived on the island. Her goal was none other than a “strong alliance”, merging the powers of Liuhua Island and Liufeng Island to strengthen and expand.
“Fellow Daoist.”
Nangong Rou continued, “If you and I become Daoist couple, by allying Liuhua Island with Liufeng Island, we surely could gather a vast amount of resources, enough to suppress Chigua Island and cause Huang Yihan to back down.”
“Fairy, there’s no need to say more.”
Ning Daoran said, “I have no intention of taking a Daoist couple, not in the past and not now. I am ashamed; thank you for your misplaced affection.”
“Ning Daoran!”
Nangong Rou suddenly trembled, eyes brimming with tears, and with a look of great grievance: “I am now a Golden Core cultivator; where do I fall short in deserving you? To still reject me like this, do I truly appear so undeserving in your eyes?”
Ning Daoran frowned, viewing her teary appearance, but thought to himself, “Don’t pull this act on me.”
During his hundreds of years of cultivation, Ning Daoran had seen all kinds of scenes. Your tactics, Nangong Rou, might fool the fledglings, but they cannot deceive Ning Someone like me!
“Fairy, I am ashamed!”
With a gentle fist salute, Ning Daoran no longer looked toward her.
“Good… good… good…”
Nangong Rou said ‘good’ thrice, then spoke, “If Ning Daoran doesn’t cherish, naturally I, Nangong Rou, will neither pester nor cling. I’ll take my leave now and cease to bother you.”
“Fairy, safe travels!”
Outside the Cave Mansion, Nangong Rou mounted a golden tunneling light and flew directly toward Liufeng Island.
“Hm?”
Sui Zhuyue frowned: “Young Master, why did Nangong Fairy leave in such a huff?”
“She wanted to become Daoist couple with me, and I refused.”
“…”
Sui Zhuyue didn’t say anything; some matters were not for her to comment on.
…
Months later.
A shocking piece of news reached Liuhua Island.
The very Nangong Rou who left in a huff, along with the Zhao Family Ancestor who had long lain dormant, were inconceivably joining hands in a dreamlike union; they were to become Daoist couple!
Inside the Cave Mansion.
Ning Daoran shockingly held the crimson invitation, feeling somewhat conflicted inside.
“This Nangong Fairy is truly amusing.”
Little Bai calmly smiled, “Could it be that because the Young Master refused her proposal, she gave up on herself and is now marrying that old wretch, the Ancestor of the Zhao Family?”
“It appears so indeed…”
Sui Zhuyue said, “Young Master, could it be that Nangong Fairy is marrying the Zhao Family Ancestor just to spite you?”
“Spite me?”
Ning Daoran slapped his thigh, “Nangong Rou is muddled. I have absolutely no interest in her; let alone her marrying the Zhao Family Ancestor, even if she marries a fly, I wouldn’t bat an eye!”
Little Bai rolled her eyes; this was indeed Ning Daoran’s style.
“Actually, it may not be as you think.”
Ning Daoran continued, “Nangong Rou’s marriage to the Zhao Family Ancestor essentially signifies an alliance between Liuhua Island and the Zhao Family. With this alliance, the Zhao Family can station themselves on Liuhua Island, using its resources to stir up trouble, while Nangong Rou can leverage the Ancestor’s backing to elevate herself. They are simply using each other.”
“Young Master’s insights are most astute!”
Sui Zhuyue nodded in agreement.
“So then…”
Little Bai asked, “The invitation for Nangong Rou’s and the Zhao Family Ancestor’s Daoist couple ceremony has been sent; are you attending, Young Master?”
“Not going.”
Ning Daoran shook his head, “I fear they would trap me with layers of arrays with the intent to kill.”
Little Bai covered her mouth and chuckled, finding him quite self-aware.
