Chapter 353: Chapter 353: The Second Token_1

Seeing Ning Fan’s resolve, Old Master Shen had no choice but to give up persuading and let Ning Fan retrieve a box from under the bed.

It was a mahogany box, which seemed to be frequently taken out, as its surface had little dust.

"In the end... this engagement just couldn’t be sustained."

The old master sighed deeply, opened the box, and took out a jade ring, "This is the token your mother left with the Shen Family when the engagement was made; today it officially returns to its rightful owner."

Ning Fan picked up the ring and examined it closely.

It didn’t seem much different from the jade ring Su Qingcheng had returned to him before.

This was already the second jade ring in his possession.

"Thank you, Old Master."

Ning Fan put away the ring, gave a respectful bow to Old Master Shen, and then left the place.

Not long after he had gone, Shen Qifa brought a group of the Shen Family back into the room.

"Father..."

Shen Qifa stood in front of the bed, his face full of shame.

Old Master Shen looked at Shen Qifa and heaved a heavy sigh, shaking his head, "Ning Fan is a dragon among men, destined to soar to great heights... When I sought this engagement back then, I thought it would lift our Shen Family to the skies, but now... alas!"

He sighed deeply, leaned back on the bed, and fell silent.

Shen Qifa and Shen Bingying were now regretting deeply; they knew that Old Master Shen’s words were definitely true.

Otherwise, why would Old Master Shen, who wasn’t senile back then, bother to arrange an engagement with Ning Fan?

"You two, father and daughter, have been foolish!"

"Judging by appearances! Only judging by appearances!"

"If it weren’t for you two, even if the Shen Family couldn’t gain any advantage, would we have fallen so low?"

When the Shen Family heard the old master’s words, they were filled with regret and anger, their faces flushed, furiously cursing Shen Bingying and her father.

After a while, Old Master Shen seemed to get annoyed, yelled with closed eyes, "All of you get out! Without my permission, no one is allowed to come in again! Get out! Out! All of you, get out!"

Seeing Old Master Shen angry, the Shen Family did not dare to stay any longer, each leaving with heads hung low, dispirited.

...

Meanwhile, Ning Fan had just returned to the hotel when Lin Xiaoling came to report to him.

"Brother, all of the Shen Family’s assets have been transferred to your name, totaling over two hundred billion, including a vast amount of cash, real estate, shares in major corporations, bonds..."

She flipped through the documents in her hand, unable to finish reading, and hence handed them over to Ning Fan.

"In short, this is an exceedingly vast fortune."

Ning Fan didn’t even look at it and simply waved his hand, "No need for me to review it, you and Yu Lu handle it."

Lin Xiaoling, however, had a troubled expression and hesitated to speak.

"What’s wrong?" Ning Fan noticed her unease and asked.

Lin Xiaoling gave a wry smile, "Brother, you are really overestimating me and Sister Lu. The two of us managing so many assets, we simply can’t handle it."

Managing assets worth hundreds of billions was not an easy task.

"Is that so..." Ning Fan stroked his chin, deep in thought, "Well then, let’s sell off half of the Shen Family’s assets at a low price."

"What?"

Lin Xiaoling was puzzled but did not dwell on it, quickly spreading the news.

The other families of Shen City were stunned by the news.

Ning Fan was selling off the Shen Family’s assets?

And at a low price?!

Suddenly, families from all over Shen City swarmed in.

"I am a representative of the Li Family, here to purchase the Shen Family’s shopping mall..."

"I am here to buy the land in the east of the city... Don’t push, dammit!"

"Make way! I am here for big business!"

"Stop shouting! Who isn’t here for big business?"

It was known that the Shen Family, as the wealthiest in Shen City, held only prime assets. Now that they were being sold at low prices, it was a windfall for the buyers.

The hotel was suddenly jam-packed with members of the various families, like a big store during a flash sale.

As for Ning Fan, he was currently in Su Qingcheng’s room.

He had just revived Old Master Shen today and had new ideas about brain treatment. He wanted to try them on Su Qingcheng to see if he could awaken her.

He took out silver needles and started to insert them into Su Qingcheng’s body, while administering the Spiritual Liquid orally.

After an unknown length of time, Ning Fan heaved a long sigh and his eyes were filled with undisguised disappointment.

"Failed again... My power is still insufficient..."

The injuries Su Qingcheng sustained were very different from those of Old Master Shen, and the same methods proved utterly useless.

Ning Fan put away the needles and returned to his own room, taking out the jade ring he had just received from Old Master Shen.

The previous ring had granted him a legacy, he wondered what this ring would bring him.

Ning Fan’s spiritual power surged as he poured it into the jade ring.

"What is this!"

His eyes widened in surprise.

Once the spiritual power entered the jade ring, he discovered that there was a small space within the ring.

After a few trials, Ning Fan was overjoyed.

The space inside the ring was not big, about a square meter, but it was quite miraculous. As long as he touched small objects with the ring and thought about it, those objects would instantly vanish and appear in this small space.

What kind of technique could create such a space within such a small jade ring?

This was simply the miraculous technique from the legend: "The mustard seed into Mount Meru"!

It was unbelievable!

Besides, within the ring was a mass of extremely pure spiritual energy, purer than the spiritual energy outside by hundreds, even thousands of times.

After a brief shock, Ning Fan put the ring on his finger.

"This is good. From now on, the amulets and Spiritual Liquid I make can be directly stored in the ring, which will save a lot of trouble."
