Liu Zhen first asked Sun Lie about Ning Zhuo.

"Are you talking about Ning Zhuo? In today's Fire Persimmon City, no one knows about it." Sun Lie was slightly surprised, but he still answered Liu Zhen.

"I wonder how your sect heard about Ning Zhuo's reputation and why they wanted to inquire about him?" Sun Lie was curious.

Liu Zhen explained the whole story. There was nothing to hide. On the other hand, he had great trust in Sun Lie, who saved his life.

After hearing this, Sun Lie suddenly said: "It turns out that Ning Zhuo is no longer in Fire Persimmon City and has gone out to travel. No wonder he always practices in seclusion and has not appeared in public for many days."

Ning Zhuo left secretly at that time and used the mechanism to create a dragon traveling thousands of miles away. In the entire Fire Persimmon Immortal City, only high-level monks knew this secret.

Sun Lie is obviously not among them.

Liu Zhen then raised his hands and saluted: "Master Sun, please tell me about Ning Zhuo in detail."

Sun Lie said: "Speaking of this, Ning Zhuo is indeed a young hero, very remarkable."

"His parents in his early years..."

After Sun Lie introduced him, Liu Zhen was speechless for a long time.

He was inclined to believe that what Sun Lie said was true. After all, there was no need for the latter to deceive him. Moreover, he could easily learn about these situations from other people's mouths.

"But if that's the case, this Ning Zhuo is too amazing and really inspiring!"

Nowadays, Ning Zhuo, although he is no longer in the Fire Persimmon City, has become a source of discussion among the city residents, and the more they talk, the more excited they become.

Because although he was born into a wealthy family, he was humble in his early years, suffered a lot of exclusion and harsh criticism, and was inconspicuous.

Also taking advantage of the birth of Lava Immortal Palace, he rose rapidly, gradually showed his talents, and finally succeeded in splitting the family, replacing the Zheng family and becoming the head of the branch of the Ning family.

The citizens of the city will not know the final inside story of the Lava Immortal Palace, but the existence of the Ning family branch has always been there, silently telling everyone what Ning Zhuo has achieved!

Such an inheritance is quite rare for middle-aged people. But Ning Zhuo is only a sixteen-year-old boy.

Ning Zhuo's success has inspired many young people. It has given the vast majority of lower-class citizens the best substitute. Ning Zhuo's success is also their inner desire.

Therefore, unknowingly, Ning Zhuo has become the idol of the people of Huoshi City.

"Ning Zhuo actually has such an identity. He has been looked down upon for many years, and it was only recently that he gained the favor of the ancestor of the family's golden elixir."

"How did he do it?"

"Separating a family is a very taboo thing!"

Liu Zhen felt curious and incredible.

How did Ning Zhuo achieve a peaceful separation of the family? What happened to the main line of the Ning family? Didn't he stop it? Didn't the Ning family have an ancestor of Jindan? Just watch him separate the family?

Liu Zhen realized that things were far from being as simple as they seemed. Ning Zhuo must have reached many secret agreements with Ning Jiefan, the founder of the Ning family's golden elixir, and the Ning family's main line in private!

Liu Zhen thought for a while and asked Sun Lie: "So, how do other forces in Huoshixian City view the separation of the Ning family?"

Sun Lie smiled: "This is a very good question."

"I won't talk about anything else. Let's just talk about what happened when Ning Zhuo arranged the flowing water mat during the family separation ceremony."

After Liu Zhen heard this, he looked shocked.

"Ning Zhuo is just a foundation-building monk, but on the day of the family separation ceremony, he actually attracted Fei Si and Zhou Nongying, two golden elixir monks, to personally congratulate him!"

"And there is even a member of the royal family, Zhu Hou, present?"

"Song Fuli, the golden elixir monk from Yunshang, refused to deal with Ning Zhuo. He blocked the door and made things difficult for Ning Zhuo that day. As a result, he was persuaded to leave by several flying letters. He was quite disgraced!"

What does this mean?

Liu Zhen knew it very well.

"This shows that this new force established by Ning Zhuo has been fully recognized by the inherent mountain tops in Fire Persimmon City."

"Their recognition is so high that they are even willing to come forward to persuade Song Fuli to quit!"

"It seems that the Ning family will flourish in the future."

"This kid Ning Zhuo is really awesome!"

Liu Zhen originally thought that Ning Zhuo was just the son of a Xiuzhen family and had been shadowed by his elders since he was a child.

Unexpectedly, he was the patriarch who started from scratch and established a separate family business!

Sun Lie looked mysterious and told Liu Zhen: "According to rumors, Ning Zhuo even played a very important role at the last moment of the battle in Lava Immortal Palace."

"Really?" Liu Zhen listened carefully, with various speculations emerging in his mind.

"This is so inspiring!" Liu Zhen sighed.

Of course, he couldn't just pry around Sun Lie.

He left Ziyang Villa and went to various parts of Huoshi Fairy City to collect information.

This information is very similar to what Sun Lie said.

Liu Zhen came to the original site of the Zheng family and looked at the plaque of the Ning family. He was filled with emotion: "Although Ning Zhuo is young, he is by no means simple."

"Throughout his family history, he was treated harshly and ignored when he was young. He firmly seized the opportunity of Lava Immortal Palace. Regardless of his status as a son of a wealthy family, he was willing to act as the master of the black market and promote the city lord's palace."

"He is very good at using others to achieve his own goals. In the process of self-strengthening, he has used many resources of the Zhou family, the Zheng family and even the City Lord's Mansion."

"He also mobilized within the family to bring down the young patriarch of the main clan, and his political fighting methods were also outrageously sharp!"

"Rather than saying he is a young hero, he is better said to be a young hero."

"When dealing with such a person, you must not underestimate him! Be wary of him taking advantage of his strength."

Liu Zhen left early and didn't know that his junior sister had been put into solitary confinement for helping Ning Zhuo too much.

With other thoughts in mind, he took the initiative to walk to the gate of Ning Zhuo's branch house.

Facing the monk who was the doorman, he said directly: "I am a casual monk. I heard that we are recruiting workers here?"

The guard looked him over and said: "If you want to work, please register first. Someone will take you there. Don't wander around in our Ning family's land, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."

Liu Zhen had no intention of running around.

After all, his strength has been weakened a lot, and now he is recovering from a serious illness.

This time, he just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of recruiting workers and go deep into the Ning clan's branch house to personally inquire about the truth.

Soon after, Liu Zhen and other monks doing part-time work were led into the weapon refining room.

In the refining room, a large number of furnaces are continuously calcining and refining day and night.

According to the foreman's arrangement, Liu Zhen came to his post and started working.

After only half a day, his weak constitution could no longer bear it, and he was so weak that stars appeared in his eyes.

"The workload is so heavy that I almost didn't take a break the whole morning."

Liu Zhen was disgraced and felt terrible.

He couldn't go on, and he would faint from exhaustion if he continued to do it.

He talked to the foreman.

The foreman had long been dissatisfied with his efficiency: "How come you have such a weak body and don't take any trouble?"

Liu Zhen sighed: "I didn't expect this work to be so heavy!"

The foreman shook his head: "Otherwise, why would the Ning family offer us such a high salary? It is indeed a bit difficult for you to make such money. Go ahead, go ahead."

"You can't do it, there are plenty of people who can do it."

While they were talking, a one-armed monk walked in and shouted angrily: "Why is the output of your room three the lowest among all the refining rooms?!"

"What the hell are you doing?"

"Do you know that we are in a rush for construction? If this batch of Yurunxuan Steel is not refined, there will be more in the future! The family's inventory can hardly be stacked!"

The foreman waved to Liu Zhen and ignored the latter. Instead, he ran to the one-armed monk, nodded and bowed to him, and accused him repeatedly.

The one-armed monk is none other than the one-armed craftsman, one of the Sansan people in the black market.

After Ning Zhuo established the branch family, he recruited him and made him temporarily serve as the chief weapon refiner of the branch family.

The one-armed craftsman enjoys this position very much and has always been extremely enthusiastic about his work.

When Liu Zhen left the area where the Ning clan branched off, he already knew in his mind that although the branching family had just been established, the family tradition was very good and he was working enthusiastically.

Even if the one-armed craftsman is an external guest, he still treats it as his own business.

When Liu Zhen was about to leave the gate, a group of young monks happened to be chatting happily and striding into the clan area.

Liu Zhen keenly observed that although these monks were young, they had extraordinary demeanor, and the rest of the Ning family also treated them with respect and envy.

Some of the young monks were still carrying certain parts of the corpses of monsters, which contained a lot of killing and fighting intent.

He must have just returned from hunting.

Liu Zhen went to the guard to inquire and learned the identity of this group of people.

Almost all of them are Ning Zhuo's classmates.

Especially the leaders, Ning Yong and Ning Chen, had followed Ning Zhuo long before the family split.

They received a lot of care from Ning Zhuo. Obviously, in Ning Zhuo's heart, the friendship between these two classmates was the deepest.

"It turns out he is Ning Zhuo's confidant and the future backbone of the family."

"But their cultivation base is generally weak. How come the monster beast corpses they hunt are generally at the foundation level?"

Liu Zhen was confused and asked again.

The answer he got shocked his heart.

It turns out that the three families reached an agreement and Ning Zhuo's family had a lot of monks who occupied important positions in Lava Immortal Palace.

With these positions, they can borrow the power of the Asgard to help them hunt.

"So, the branch of the Ning clan has some control over Lava Immortal Palace?"

Upon discovering this, Liu Zhen's evaluation of the Ning family's separation suddenly increased to a higher level.

"The Ning family splits up the family to make weapons on a large scale. If we run this business, the benefits will definitely not be bad."

"Yurun Xuangang...How come the Ning family branch suddenly has such a large-scale cooperation with Yugang Mountain?"

"The Ning family has a lot of control over Lava Immortal Palace, which allows them to firmly establish themselves in the power hierarchy. As long as these positions are still there, they will not fall down the hierarchy."

"In comparison, there are very few people from the main lineage of the Ning family who have mastered the positions in the Immortal Palace. The contrast between the two is quite stark."

"The branch of the Ning family is backed by Huoshi Mountain and has obtained the foundation of the Zheng family. It has a close relationship with other forces in the city and has developed quickly and steadily."

Liu Zhen was filled with emotion.

He was quite envious of Ning Zhuo!

This is a man’s inheritance.

"I am much older than him. Compared with him, I have lived so many years in vain!" Liu Zhen suddenly lost interest when he thought of this.

He endured the disappointment, made the information into a jade slip, and sent it out first through the inn in Nandou Kingdom.

Then, he and Sun Lie set off together, heading back to Wanyao Sect.
