Chapter 675: Chapter 675: Calling for Help
"Bang!"
Ning Bingcai was lying in bed when suddenly, the door behind him was kicked open.
Hastily turning over, he stared in shock at Ning Mengyao who was rushing in with a kitchen knife.
Ning Mengyao’s gaze was extremely cold, scaring Ning Bingcai into sitting up straight.
"Meng Yao, what are you doing?"
"How dare you ask what I am doing? Why don’t you reflect on your own actions? Today, I will kill you, you heartless beast!"
Ning Mengyao, gripping the knife, had never before contemplated murder.
"Meng Yao, don’t get excited... I haven’t done anything!"
Ning Bingcai, clutching his blanket, wondered why she was calling for violence when he was just sleeping soundly.
"Tell me, the two of you came back, was it to inquire about Lin Fan’s illness?"
Ning Mengyao stood at the head of the bed, holding the kitchen knife.
The glaring blade was enough to make Ning Bingcai tremble in fear, but he dared not reveal the truth.
"No, we genuinely realized our mistake... we came back to ask dad for forgiveness!"
"Nonsense, Ning Changfeng, that beast, only yesterday found out Lin Fan was gravely ill and confined to his bed, and yet that very night, someone attempted an assassination. You still say it has nothing to do with you?"
Ning Mengyao gritted her teeth. Everything was clear as day.
"He... he found out... but... but he didn’t tell me!"
Ning Bingcai instinctively finished his sentence and immediately covered his mouth.
"Oh really, it was you!"
However, in the next moment, Ning Mengyao swung the kitchen knife toward his head.
"Thud!"
Fortunately, Ning Bingcai protected his head with the blanket, preventing his skull from being split open.
He suddenly tumbled down to the floor.
"I’ll kill you, you beast!"
Ning Mengyao pulled out the knife and lunged at Ning Bingcai once again.
Fortunately, Ning Zhenyue, who had hurried to the scene, grabbed her from behind.
"Dad... save me... save me!"
Seeing the almost crazed Ning Mengyao, Ning Bingcai could only cry out loudly.
Now, only Ning Zhenyue could save his life.
"Meng Yao, don’t be rash!"
Ning Zhenyue tightly gripped Ning Mengyao’s wrist, shouting loudly.
"Grandfather... at this point... are you still protecting him? These traitors nearly killed our entire family... Do we have to die before you realize he’s a heartless beast?"
Ning Mengyao’s eyes were filled with bloody veins, and if it weren’t for Ni Chang, she would have died last night.
"Meng Yao, it’s Grandfather’s fault... my heart was too soft... I should never have believed this beast could change his ways!"
Snatching the knife from Ning Mengyao’s hand, Ning Zhenyue said, "Meng Yao, you’re young, leave this to me... Since I brought this bastard into the world, I should be the one to send him off!"
With those words, Ning Zhenyue kicked Ning Bingcai over and swung the kitchen knife at him violently.
"Ah... Dad, don’t kill me... don’t kill me... I was wrong... I was deceived by Ning Chang Feng too..."
Clutching the blanket to fend off the chopping blows, Ning Bingcai was wailing incessantly.
The knife was shredding the blanket, sending cotton flying everywhere.
No one knew if in the next second, he would be splattered with blood right there.
"Grandpa... don’t get agitated yet... I still have something to ask him!"
Ning Mengyao directly hugged Ning Zhenyue and then looked at Ning Bingcai.
"Speak, who commanded you two to come back and gather information..."
"It was the Gong Family’s Gong Changjun... said Lin Fan killed his son... he wants revenge... it’s really none of my business... it was all Ning Changfeng forcing me to come back..."
The terrified Ning Bingcai, who would dare not tell the truth, could only recount the event from the beginning.
"It’s... a Martial Cultivator family!"
When Ning Mengyao heard this, her heart tightened.
Last time, Master Miejue had ambushed them, and it was Yang Linglong’s master, the South Sea Divine Nun, who had helped them out of the encirclement.
Unexpectedly, the Gong Family still had not given up and had come for revenge after everyone had evacuated.
"The Gong Family is a deeply rooted clan... if they are going after Lin Fan... it’s going to be troublesome, why don’t... you take Lin Fan and leave quickly, I’ll stay and fight them!"
Ning Zhenyue also couldn’t help but gasp after hearing this.
The Gong Family had always been a mysterious presence in Jiangning, and if they failed in their assassination last night, they would likely make a comeback tonight.
"Fine, let’s go outside and talk!"
Ning Mengyao frowned and glanced at Ning Bingcai again.
"You get out of here right now, and if you dare to come back next time, I’ll personally kill you!"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Ning Bingcai did not dare to utter another word and scurried off crawling.
It wasn’t until he had staggered away that Ning Mengyao and her grandfather left the western cross courtyard together.
At this moment, Ni Chang had been waiting there, her face grave after hearing the whole story.
"Ni Chang, do you think we can still make it to the Heavenly Cavern if we take Lin Fan with us now?"
Ning Mengyao asked anxiously, holding Ni Chang’s hand.
Right now, the revenge from the Gong Family could come at any moment.
Ni Chang was capable, but facing Master Miejue had already been her limit, and if there were more accomplices, things could become very troublesome.
Thus, taking Lin Fan away would be his best protection.
"I’m afraid not, the Heavenly Cavern is devoid of sun and moon, completely unsuitable for using the Forbidden Technique, and tonight, when the sun and moon shine together, it’s when the Forbidden Technique works best. If we’re late, I’m afraid we won’t be able to wake him up."
Ni Chang pursed her lips, "So tonight we must cast the spell here, even if an army attacks, we’ll have to find a way to hold them off, and besides, this place is full of top-notch experts. The Gong Family cannot possibly overshadow all, right?"
"This... could be difficult!"
Ning Mengyao pursed her lips.
Most of the people close to Lin Fan were no longer in Jiangning.
Moreover, the Gong Family’s strength had always been overwhelming, and looking across Jiangning, no one could contend with them.
"Or should I use Zhao Jiaqi’s body to contact the Dragon Tooth?"
Ni Chang suddenly thought of this, as this body belonged to someone from Dragon Tooth.
With the influence of Dragon Tooth, it might be useful, but she immediately knitted her brows again, "No, Jiangning is just a small city. If it weren’t because of the focal point of the Jiazi plan causing a sensation, I’m afraid the power of Dragon Tooth here isn’t strong. To contend with a local powerhouse like the Gong Family would be very difficult!"
"I have an idea!"
Ning Mengyao suddenly remembered something, it was a bit presumptuous, but it might work.
"Lin Fan was once close friends with the City Lord, and Lu Feifei’s godfather is a big shot in Modu. Perhaps we can leverage the authority of the City Lord. I remember Zheng Tianxiang knows the City Lord, I could ask him to make contact. Plus, Jiangning has more than one Martial Cultivator family; the Shangguan Family’s Shangguan Min Yue is also Lin Fan’s confidante. I’ll go to the Shangguan Family for help!"
"Let’s do that, as long as Lin Fan wakes up tonight, then everything will be alright."
The hostile forces were closing in; they had no choice but to take a risky move.
Ni Chang could only hope that the Soul Summoning Array would be powerful enough to awaken him.
