“What are you doing here?” When she saw Cheng Xuan, Ning Shan ‘er’s anger flared up.

“I’ve always been here! It’s just that ninth young mistress’s eyesight isn’t good and didn’t see me. ” Cheng Xuan teased, but in his heart, he was thinking,’it looks like Ning Shan really isn’t interested in me anymore. If this was in the past, she would have already pounced on me, hehe!’ That’s great, he thought to himself.

“Your eyes are the one with bad eyesight! You’re clearly too small. ” Ning Shan ‘er retorted sarcastically, unwilling to be outdone. In any case, she would definitely not be at a disadvantage.

“Alright! I’m too insignificant to enter your eyes, ninth young lady. ” Cheng Xuan admitted.

“Hmph! It’s good that you know! I was really blind in the past, how could I have taken a fancy to you! Now I know that there’s always someone better than you. ” Ning Shan ‘er said with a look of disdain and regret.

After hearing her words, Cheng Xuan was even more certain that Ning Shan ‘er had a new target. Otherwise, she would not belittle herself like that. However, this was really good news for him! However, he did not know which unlucky man had caught Ning Shan ‘er’s eye. He felt a little sympathetic for that unknown man.

“Congratulations, ninth young mistress, for coming back from the wrong path. However, you haven’t answered my question yet!” Cheng Xuan said with a smile. He was in a good mood.

“What’s the problem?” Ning Shan ‘er was confused.

“The outsiders you said live in the forbidden area, are you referring to the armament Guild’s Grand Elder?” Cheng Xuan repeated, his heart filled with regret. What a pity! The ninth daughter of the ning family had amnesia at such a young age.

“Of course not! I’m talking about the ancestor’s goddaughter! What right does she have to live in the forbidden area?” Ning Shan ‘er said with a face full of jealousy. As the saying goes, the same sex repels the other, while the opposite sex attracts the other. Therefore, after knowing that there was such a woman, she instinctively hated Leng ruoxue.

“Just because she’s the goddaughter of your ancestor! Your family’s old ancestor let her stay, who would dare to object?” Cheng Xuan laughed as he cursed in his heart, idiot! If you want to find trouble with Leng ruoxue, you should first see if you are qualified.

“This is against the rules!” Ning Shan ‘er said angrily, her heart filled with jealousy. In their generation, other than the young master who had been given special permission by the old ancestor to enter and leave the forbidden area as he pleased, no one else had the right. They couldn’t even enter, let alone live in the entrance area. What a great honor that was! Yet, she yearned for it, but it was not within her reach, and a woman who had no relationship with the ning family could live there. How could she, who had always been proud, accept this?

“Ninth young mistress, the words of your old ancestor are the rules of the ning family.” Cheng Xuan sighed and helplessly reminded him.

“Even so, we can’t let an outsider live here.” Ning Shan ‘er quibbled.

“It seems like you’re doubting your ancestor’s decision!” Cheng Xuan asked with an evil smile.

“How could I doubt the decision of our ancestor? don’t wrong me. I just feel that I can’t explain it to the ning family if I let an outsider live in the forbidden area.” Ning Shan ‘er found herself a Grand reason.

“Your ancestor doesn’t need to explain to anyone, understand?” Cheng Xuan was speechless.

Ning haolan also looked at Ning Shan ‘er helplessly. The ninth young mistress of the ning family had long been spoiled to the point where she even dared to criticize the old ancestor. Who was the old ancestor? He was the inheritor with the highest status in the ning family. The decision of the old ancestor was the decision of the ning family. Who dared to question it?

“Then the old ancestor can’t ignore the feelings of our ning family!” Ning Shan ‘er quibbled.

“Hahaha! Miss Jiu’s words were really interesting. Does the old ancestor have to consider the feelings of all your clansmen? All my life, I’ve only known that our clansmen have to listen to our ancestors and do whatever they’re told to do. This is the first time I’ve heard you say something like this!” Cheng Xuan sneered. The ninth young mistress was so arrogant that she was beyond saving.

“Shan ‘er! Mind your words!” Ning haolan’s face was full of disapproval.

“Big brother young master, please take me with you!” Ning Shan ‘er’s beautiful eyes turned as she suddenly begged.

Ning haolan narrowed his bright black eyes and stared unblinkingly at Ning Shan ‘er, causing her hair to stand on end. After a long while, he finally spoke indifferently,””Shan ‘er, you know the importance of this forbidden area. Without the permission of the ancestor, I can’t bring you in.”

Actually, even though ning haolan’s words were obviously trying to avoid the matter, it was the truth. He knew very well what Ning Shan ‘er wanted to do in the forbidden area, so he naturally could not bring her in. Otherwise, if Leng ruoxue were to lose even a hair on her head, the old Grand Madame would not let him off.

“Then, young master big brother should go and beg the ancestor!” Ning Shan ‘er said coyly.

“It’s so late, and you want me to go and beg the ancestor?” Ning haolan squinted his eyes as he sized up Ning Shan ‘er. He wanted to see what this beautiful little head of hers was thinking.

“Big brother young master! It’s not too late yet, the old ancestor must not have rested yet! If you’re willing to help me beg the old forefather, I’ll remember the good in big brother young master. ” Ning Shan ‘er’s eyes flickered as she pleaded.

“Shan ‘er, you’re already so big, you should be more sensible.” Ning haolan’s handsome face was filled with disappointment.

“Young lord big brother, I beg you! I’ll remember your good deeds. ” Ning Shan ‘er continued to plead.

However, ning haolan remained unmoved. Gradually, the anger in Ning Shan ‘er’s heart began to surge towards her head, and she began to Mutter disdainfully in her heart, Hmph! He was just an orphan whose parents had died early. If he had not entered the eyes of the old ancestor, how could he have been the young master?

Because she had failed to get what she wanted, ning haolan was an eyesore to her. She even thought that if her own brother became the young master, he definitely wouldn’t be like this.

“Shan ‘er, it’s getting late. Go back and rest!” Ning haolan reminded him with a faint smile. Then, he gave Cheng Xuan a look and warned him before he left,”You should know the consequences of barging into the forbidden area, so don’t do anything stupid!”

As she watched ning haolan and Cheng Xuan leave, Ning Shan ‘er’s heart was filled with hatred. She then looked at the guards who refused to make an exception, and in a fit of anger, Ning Shan’ er left.

After Ning Shan ‘er left, she did not return to her own residence immediately. Instead, she went to look for her own brother.

Her brother was called ning Haojie and he was one of the best among the younger generation of the ning family. In her heart, her brother’s potential was not any worse than ning haolan ‘s. It was a pity that he was not as well-liked by the old ancestor as ning haolan. However, from her perspective, whether ning haolan could become the master of the ning family and whether he could sit firmly on the position was still an unknown. After all, there were too many people in the ning family who wanted to replace him and many people were waiting for ning haolan to make a mistake!

Furthermore, her brother’s advantage over ning haolan was that his parents were still alive. Her mother’s clan might not be as powerful as a top-tier clan like the ning clan, but it was still one of the top clans outside of the eight great divine domains.

His father held a high position in the ning family as well. He was the Lord of a city in the ning family’s divine realm. He managed Sea city, the second largest city after the main city. Ning haolan only had a Big Uncle who was of similar blood to him as the substitute Lord of the ning family. However, an uncle was not his father. No matter how close they were, it could not be compared to the relationship between a father and a son. Thus, these were all the advantages of his brother.
