Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master/

Chapter 22 : Can't Bear to Bully Ning Zhuo!

  Underground workshop.

  Ning Zhuo slowly opened his eyes and stretched out his hand to wipe his nosebleed.

  There was no longer light blue frost magic in his body.

  But the five elements of mana!

  The five elements of magic include the white of gold, the green of wood, the black of water, the red of fire, and the yellow of earth. The five colors of white, green, black, red and yellow are intertwined but do not penetrate each other. They are clear and distinct.

  "In the nature of heaven and earth, the five elements of spiritual power are mutually reinforcing and interfering with each other. It is very difficult to achieve stable balance and long-term coexistence."

  "But through the Five Elements Qi Law Technique, which converts the spiritual energy into the five elements' magic power, it can be peaceful and clear-cut."

  "As expected of the Master of the Three Sects!"

  "Second level of Qi refining..."

  Before, Ning Zhuo was on the third level of Qi Refining. After completely converting his mana, he was only left with the second level of Qi Refining.

  Converting mana also costs money.

  This is what it should be, and Ning Zhuo had expected it.

  The next step is to continue practicing, accumulate mana, and reach the third level of Qi refining.

  “I don’t know when I will hear the bell ringing again.”

  After the transformation, Ning Zhuo was exhausted both physically and mentally, so he decided to rest and recharge his batteries.

  He took a few warming pills and took them to help his body adapt to the new magic power faster.

  Warm Yang Dan has many advantages, such as its mild medicinal power, slow effect, and minimal burden on the human body. Its biggest disadvantage may be that it is expensive. One pill costs hundreds of spiritual stones.

  Ding ding ding.

  As soon as Ning Zhuo finished eating the elixir, he heard a crisp sound like wind chimes.

  This was the appearance of a suspicious person near the residence, which triggered the alarm.

  He came to the work table and lightly kicked the table leg. The wall facing him creaked, and the wall tiles moved sideways, revealing a mirror.

  From the mirror, Ning Zhuo saw the "suspicious person" - Chen Cha.

  Chen Cha was at the entrance of Ning Zhuo's courtyard, with his hands behind his back and walking around. He looked down at the road with a troubled expression on his face.

  Ning Zhuo's eyes flashed: "Chen Cha? Why did he take the initiative to come to me?"

  "It seems that there has been further progress in the matter of the agency's fiery monkey."

  Thinking of this, Ning Zhuo was slightly happy.

  Chen Cha was pacing at the entrance of the small courtyard, with the scene that happened before in his mind.

  Faith called him and told him: The Mechanic Fiery Monkey has been recognized by the city lord, and all the Mechanism workshops in the city will be mobilized to work together to make this Mechanism creation for large-scale picking of fire persimmons at this year's Fire Persimmon Festival.

  Faith encouraged Chen Cha: "You are the person I recruited into the city."

  "Work hard and go all out! If you work hard like this, your life situation will be completely different."

  Chen Cha was stunned. He heard it and quickly explained: "Lord Feisi, you have misunderstood me."

  "I came to you to report this mechanism monkey, mainly because I want you to arrange a preferential policy to reduce some taxes and fees for the Frisbee Workshop."

  "Actually, I didn't design this mechanism monkey. Someone else developed it."

  Chen Cha is good at formations and mechanisms. People like him who study technology and can endure loneliness and hardship often don't like to cheat.

  Pretending to be someone else's work is something he hates, and he doesn't even bother to do it.

  He had talked with Ning Zhuo before, and he had once suspected that Ning Zhuo had falsely recognized the work of the government.

  Faith was stunned for a moment: "Isn't it your work?"

  He really didn't know this.

  He laughed nonchalantly: "It's not a big deal. You are the owner of the workshop, so it's not you who has the final say who gets the credit."

  Chen Cha had his own insistence on this aspect. He shook his head decisively: "My lord, I have little talent and I don't have the talent to design such an exquisite mechanism."

  "Such a mechanical creation has gone through so many setbacks and tribulations from design to completion. The person who invented it spent so much effort and thought on it!"

  "What's the difference between appropriating other people's institutional works and killing someone to steal their son?"

  "I beg you, sir, to be wise."

  Faith's eyes flashed coldly, and she became a little angry.

  In his opinion: This mechanism work must belong to Chen Cha! Because Chen Cha is his subordinate, and if Chen Cha has merit, it means that he has merit.

  A smile appeared on Fei Si's face, and he reached out to pat Chen Cha on the shoulder. Instead, he praised, "It's your nature that I appreciate."

  "Although this work is not perfect, I believe that you will be able to design a mechanical creation that is better than this in the future."

  Chen Cha looked touched: "Thank you for your appreciation, sir!"

  Many years ago, he moved to Fire Persimmon Fairy City to develop after being recruited by Faith.

  Who knew that living in the Immortal City would be difficult! He worked hard to run the Frisbee workshop, but by this year, it was in a precarious situation.

  However, it was true that Faith gave him a chance in the first place. For that, he was always grateful.

  Feisi inquired with a natural expression: "Let me ask you, which monk invented this mechanical monkey?"

  Chen Cha refused to do it, so Faith decided to step in secretly and "help" Chen Cha solve this problem.

  In the huge Fire Persimmon Immortal City, what does it matter if there are one or two unknown mechanical masters missing?

  Chen Cha had no doubts and gave a brief introduction to Ning Zhuo.

  "Only the third level of Qi Refining..." Fei Si sneered in his heart, and then heard the next words, "Huh? People from the Ning family?"

  Faith frowned slightly.

  This is not easy to do.

  He immediately gave up his previous dark thoughts.

  Because this involves the Ning family, which is a Jindan-level force. If you mess with it, it will be very troublesome.

  The Ning family's size and overall power are recognized as the weakest among the four major forces in Fire Persimmon City. There is only one Golden Core Stage cultivator in the Ning family.

  However, the ancestor of the Ning family's golden elixir has been proven in actual combat.

  Sixteen years ago, during the migration of the Ning family, they experienced fierce fighting. The ancestor of the Ning family defeated the ambush enemy with one against two, and saved most of the clan members. His combat power was quite extraordinary.

  It was precisely this point that made the other three parties sit back and watch the Ning family settle in Huoxing City. In normal times, although there is inevitably some friction between the four forces, they all restrain themselves and try their best to avoid violent conflicts.

  If you want to move Ning Zhuo, you may have to fight against the Ning family and the Ning family's golden elixir. Faith would never take the initiative to bear such a huge price.

  It’s not worth it for this little credit!

  When this plan failed, Fei Si thought about it and came up with another plan.

  He sighed: "Chen Cha, you mistaken me!"

  Chen Cha was immediately surprised and doubtful: "Sir, you are my noble one, and thanks to your promotion, I am allowed to practice in the Fire Persimmon Fairy City. Why did you say this?"

  Faith then said: "When you reported it, you were so vague that I mistakenly thought it was your agency work."

  "I have already vouched for the city lord, and even asked for a share of credit from you for this."

  "Oh, I always believe in you."

  "Now, the deal is done. If the truth is exposed, what will the Lord of the City do to you and me?"

  "I'm fine. It's you I'm worried about. For you, this is a crime of taking credit for your work!"

  Chen Cha's face turned pale and he panicked: "What should I do? Please save me!"

  Fei Si remained silent, stroking his beard as if in deep thought. After a moment, he said: "In this case, you go and discuss with Ning Zhuo and see if you can convince him to let him transfer this trap to you. You are younger than him. He is much older, but Ning Zhuo is only sixteen years old. What has he experienced as a monk from the Dazu School? Hehe, you should have a good chat and discuss it with him. "

  Chen Cha was troubled: "This..."

  Honestly speaking, he was not willing to do this at all.

  Fei Si snorted coldly in his heart, and sighed: "Chen Cha, this is for your own good! If you don't make mistakes, the city lord will find out in the future, and you will be the one who will be punished! The crime of taking credit for a reward is not a small one. "

  Faith randomly cited a few examples, which made Chen Cha break into a cold sweat.

  "Alas, now that the matter has come to this, we can only persuade Ning Zhuo. No, the persuasion must succeed!" Chen Cha lamented in his heart, and was forced to change his mind.

  Although he admired Ning Zhuo very much, he regarded him as a kindred spirit, and even vaguely regarded him as a confidant.

  But it was about his life and reputation, and it might also involve Lord Faith who had helped him, so he could only do this!

  Faith's strength and power were far higher than his. He just deceived Chen Cha into not being able to go to Heaven to listen, and he was not familiar with the internal affairs of the city lord's palace, so he managed to control Chen Cha to death with just a few casual words.

  Chen Cha had never thought of bullying or dealing with Ning Zhuo, but in front of Fei Si, who was at the Golden Core level, he was just a small figure as a foundation-building monk.

  Little people are always in control.

  After some inquiring, Chen Cha came to Ning Zhuo's residence.

  He did not knock on the door directly, but lingered at the courtyard gate, sighing in his heart.

  "Mr. Chen, why are you here?" The courtyard door opened and Ning Zhuo changed into clean clothes.

  Chen Cha turned around and saw a young man wearing a pure white gown with clear eyes and extraordinary temperament.

  The young man has a tall and straight posture. The sun shines down from high in the sky, illuminating his silhouette very clearly. Combined with some flowers and plants in the small courtyard, the young man looks so energetic, full of purity and beauty.

  Seeing Ning Zhuo's fresh and fresh appearance, Chen Cha's guilt instantly increased tenfold!

  He has been immersed in technical research for many years and is disgusted with the injustice in the world of immortality.

  However, today, he must play the role of forcing the younger generation and conveying the darkness of the world and the cruelty of reality.

  Chen Cha felt extremely heavy and painful!
