in northeast China. However, the Shen family doesn't deal in medicinal herbs, so they spread the word and want to find a suitable buyer..."Zhou Zhiqian said with certainty.Seeing Zhou Zhiqian's affir..."How could I possibly deceive Young Master Ning If you went and found that I had lied to you, you could very well slap me to death…"

Zhong Bo hurriedly shook his head.

At this moment, Ning Zhi's heart was moved. Cultivating within the tower for one hour was equivalent to cultivating outside for a whole day. This kind of thing he had never heard of before, and Valley Kaiyuan had never mentioned it to him either.

It seems that Gu Kaiyuan still has some reservations about him and hasn't told him all his secrets.

"...Okay, I believe you this time..."

Ning Zhi nodded, then led the people to follow Zhong Bo towards Gu's Manor!

Quickly, when the few arrived, they were directly stunned by the scene before them.

The once-thousand-acre estate was now a ruin, not a single building intact. All that remained were crumbling walls and deep pits.

And at the northernmost point of the estate, a tall tower stood, its aged form exuding an air of antiquity.

"The head of the house…………..."

Chung Bo looked at the pile of human ashes on the ground and immediately realized it was Gu Kaiyuan!

After all, he's been with Gu Kaiyuan for so many years, even if he turned into ashes, he would be able to recognize him!

"Seems like we arrived late. Chen Ping killed your master and escaped..."

Ning Zhi said, but his eyes kept scanning the Zhenmo Tower.

At first glance of the Demon Suppressing Pagoda, Ning Zhi was captivated by its ancient and archaic aura!

"Young Master Ning, you must avenge our master..."

Uncle Zhong burst into tears, no one would have expected that when he just left Gu Kaiyuan and fled, he didn't hesitate at all.

"Don't worry, I'll check first to see if it's true."

Ning Zhi said, and directly walked into the Demon Suppression Tower.

Inside the tower, a rich scent continuously invaded Ning Zhi's body, making his blood churn and boil!

Unconsciously, Ning Zhi sat cross-legged, the qi in his dantian began to circulate rapidly!

Just then, after what felt like an hour, Ning Zhi felt his body brimming with energy!

"Haha, sure enough it's a pagoda. This guy Gu Kaiyuan actually hid such a good thing himself..."

Ning Zhi walked out of the tower, but found that it was already dark.

Ning Zhi was taken aback for a moment, then looked at his subordinates and asked, "How long have I been in there"

"Master, you've been in there for a whole day!"

The servant said.

"A day" Ning Zhi was shocked. He couldn't believe it was true.

No wonder his body was full of strength, he had actually cultivated for a whole day, not just an hour. He clearly felt like it had passed quickly, time inside the tower was short.

"Young Master Ning, I swear to you, the head of our family passed away after we looked at it. This Demon-Suppressing Tower no longer needs to be activated; it has already begun activating on its own."

Uncle Zhong quickly said.

"Hahaha...hahaha..."

Ning Zhi laughed maniacally, his eyes gleaming with fervor!

"You've done well. Now that Gu Kaiyuan is dead, this place has become a no man's land. I'll invest in you, and you rebuild it. From now on, this place will be a vassal family of the Ning family..."

Ning Zhi said to Zhong Bo.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Bo immediately knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, expressing his gratitude: "The old man is willing to do anything for Master Ning."

“You guys stay here and guard me. I'm going into seclusion. I believe it won't be long before I reach the peak of the Martial Sect, even reaching the strength of a half-step Martial Marquis. When I truly break through the Martial Marquis realm, in all of Kyoto's younger generation, I will be unrivaled. Long Xiao will still be nothing…”

Ning Zhi's face was filled with excitement and ferocity. He was yearning for the near future, when he stood at the pinnacle of Kyoto's younger generation, basking in the praises from all directions.

Soon, Ning Zhi began to retreat and practice. A wave of energy surrounded Ning Zhi, and his forehead flashed with red light...spectfully obey!"Alright, three days. I only give you three days. If you can't catch Chen Ping in three days, then just wait for the consequences."After Ning Zhi finished speaking, a black mist swirle...
