Xu Ning immediately rushed towards Gray.
Xu Hujun and Cyan followed closely behind.
“Gray!”
After seeing Gray’s change, Xu Ning was taken aback.
Gray, who was previously the size of a kitten, now looked like a lion.
Gray had an immature vibe before, but now it looked mighty and fierce. Although Xu Ning was sincerely happy about Gray’s growth, Xu Ning also felt a little uncomfortable looking at Gray’s change.
Xu Ning felt that he might have to take a while to adapt to Gray’s change. “Brother!”
This time, Gray spoke directly instead of transmitting its voice.
Its voice was deep. Coupled with its bright silver fur, it was obviously an extraordinary demon beast with an extremely high bloodline
“I have advanced to the dao realm!” Gray’s body that was suspended in midair slowly landed.
Silver pupils slowly rotated in its blue eyes.
‘Is this the special bloodline of a void beast…’
Xu Ning was a little surprised that Gray could now fly.
If a human master wanted to fly in the air, they must at least advance to the seventh stage of the dao realm.
Gray didn’t have wings and yet, it could fly as soon as it advanced to the dao realm.
This was mainly due to Gray’s control over its void power.
“Congratulations, Gray.”
Xu Ning stroked Gray’s head.
“Congratulations, Young Master!”
Xu Hujun was very excited.
Xu Hujun had high expectations for Gray. And now that it saw it grow, it was extremely relieved.
After Cyan came over, it walked around Gray, its eyes full of jealousy.
“I can do more for Brother in the future!”
Gray was a little excited. “Moreover, in the past, I was always lying on your shoulders. Now, Brother can use me as a mount.”
When Gray said this, it had the pride of a child growing up to feed their parents.
Hearing this, Xu Ning laughed.
“Gray, now that you have advanced to the dao realm, your control over the Demon Beast Scroll will be stronger. In the future, when my strength improves further, I will find a way to help you repair the Demon Beast Scroll.”
Xu Ning said. The beast tamer had used the Demon Beast Scroll improperly, causing the Demon Beast Scroll to be seriously damaged.
But even so, it was still an extremely useful secret treasure.
If he could repair it, Gray could even use the Demon Beast Scroll as a trump card.
“Xu Ning, when are you going to let us go out and feel the spiritual energy of State Wansheng?”
Cyan asked again. “Soon.”
Xu Ning said, “I have chosen the temporary camp of the Swallow Heron Sect. You can leave the Demon Beast Scroll in a few days.”
“Ha, okay!”
After hearing Xu Ning’s answer, Cyan was unusually happy.
“Gray, you have changed too much. The characteristics of a void beast are very obvious.”
Xu Ning said, “According to Senior Wan Ye, demon beasts with top bloodlines in State Wansheng are easily targeted and enslaved by some powerhouses. My current strength is not enough to completely protect you. So before moving to the sect camp, stay in the Demon Beast Scroll for the time being.”
“Understood, Brother.”
Gray listened obediently.
Afterwards, Xu Ning asked Gray to send him out.
“Xu Ning, don’t forget to let us out!”
Cyan’s voice echoed in Xu Ning’s ears.
Afterwards, Xu Ning appeared in the room again.
He put away the bead formed by the Demon Beast Scroll
‘Now that I have nothing to do for the time being, I will advance the Red Sea Pill Sutra to the next level.’
Xu Ning thought in his head.
With every advancement of the Red Sea Pill Sutra, Xu Ning’s alchemy technique would improve. Not only would his success rate increase, but he could also refine more difficult pills.
‘There are many spirit medicines and medicinal materials stored in the Hidden Moon Bead. If those spirit medicines are refined into pills, I can obtain more energy from them.’
‘I’ll refine more pills after I advance the Red Sea Pill Sutra.’
After making the decision, Xu Ning entered the Hidden Moon Bead, absorbed 300,000 units of energy, and raised the Red Sea Pill Sutra to the second level.
Afterwards, Xu Ning started to refine some pills in his room.
Two days went by.
Cheng Zengtao came to find Xu Ning.
“Sect Master.”
Cheng Zengtao found Xu Ning. “Tomorrow, the Canton Governor will host a banquet to invite several family elites in the canton. Please come with us.”
“You want me to go along as well?”
Xu Ning was puzzled.
“That’s right.”
Cheng Zengtao had already thought of an excuse. “You came from the Abyss North, so you have no friends in State Wansheng. If you can make more friends at the Canton Governor’s banquet, it will be a good thing for the rebuilding of the Swallow Heron Sect.”
“Okay.”
Although Xu Ning felt that this was meaningless, he still accepted Cheng Zengtao’s proposal.
He also wanted to get in touch with the elites of State Wansheng. “In this case, I will come and fetch you tomorrow.” Cheng Zengtao said, “When the time comes, you will temporarily act as my friend.” “Sure.”
Xu Ning nodded. Afterwards, Cheng Zengtao left.
Cheng Zengtao did not tell Xu Ning that Cheng Jinxian was the one who invited him.
If he explained it directly, Cheng Zengtao was afraid that Xu Ning would become hostile.
The next day at noon, Cheng Zengtao brought Xu Ning out of the Cheng family mansion.
Cheng Zengtao then led Xu Ning to the carriage.
The horses pulling the carriage were obviously descendants of demon beasts. Their auras were all in the elementary level of the void realm.
For powerful martial arts masters, they obviously didn’t need transportation tools.
However, this banquet was taking place at the manor of the Canton Governor, so it was better to be more formal.
“Let’s get on this carriage.”
Cheng Zengtao led Xu Ning to the carriage at the front.
This carriage was quite magnificent.
“My uncle is in the carriage.”
Cheng Zengtao reminded.
Xu Ning knew that Cheng Zengtao’s uncle, Cheng Jinxian, was the head of the Cheng family and a fourth stage dao realm master. Xu Ning and Cheng Zengtao got into the carriage. As soon as he got on the carriage, Xu Ning saw a burly man sitting in the middle of the carriage.
Although he restrained his aura, he still gave off a sense of oppression.
“Family Head Cheng.”
Xu Ning took the initiative to greet him.
Cheng Jinxian did not respond directly, instead he looked at Xu Ning.
‘Cheng Jinxian seems to have some opinions about me…’
Xu Ning also noticed this.
Cheng Zengtao had previously told him that Cheng Jinxian knew his identity.
Cheng Zengtao frowned when he saw this.
“Uncle, this is…”
Before Cheng Zengtao could finish his introduction, Cheng Jinxian took the initiative to speak. “Sect Master Xu.” Cheng Jinxian nodded at Xu Ning. Although he greeted him, Xu Ning still felt that he was looking down on him.
However, Xu Ning did not care much about this.
‘This Family Head Cheng does not welcome me… Maybe he feels that the rebuilding of the Swallow Heron Sect might bring trouble to the Cheng family…’
Although Cheng Zengtao didn’t say anything, Xu Ning could infer.
The carriage moved steadily.
“I heard that Sect Master Xu comes from the Abyss North?” Cheng Jinxian took the initiative to speak.
“Family Head Cheng, just call me by my name.”
Xu Ning said, “I heard from Senior Brother Cheng that you are old friends with Senior Wan Ye. In this case, you can be considered my senior.”
Cheng Jinxian’s eyes twitched.
Yesterday night, Cheng Zengtao went to find Cheng Jinxian again to request for the villa outside Liuyan County.
At that time, Cheng Jinxian took the opportunity to learn more about Xu Ning’s situation.
Cheng Zengtao told Cheng Jinxian about Xu Ning.
When Cheng Jinxian learned that Xu Ning’s martial arts aptitude was so amazing, he understood why Wan Ye handed the sect token to him.
Because of this, Cheng Jinxian asked Cheng Zengtao to lead Xu Ning into his carriage for him to get in touch with Xu Ning before the lunch banquet began.
Before Cheng Jinxian saw Xu Ning, he felt that such a young genius should be arrogant.
But after putting on airs, Xu Ning was still humble, which made Cheng Jinxian have a good impression of Xu Ning.
In his opinion, if the Swallow Heron Sect wanted to be rebuilt, the sect master must have a patient and tenacious will.
Now it seemed that Xu Ning’s attitude had gained half of Cheng Jinxian’s approval.
“Yes, I’m from the Abyss North.”
Xu Ning responded to Cheng Jinxian’s question.
“Is everything okay with Wan Ye?”
Cheng Jinxian’s concern was sincere. “When Senior Wan Ye fled away from State Wansheng, he was seriously injured, and his realm fell to the body smelting realm. Although he took pills to relieve his injuries, his condition is still not good.”
Xu Ning already knew that Cheng Jinxian had some ties with Wan Ye.
Hearing this, Cheng Jinxian frowned and didn’t say anything “Xu Ning, do you know the difficulties of rebuilding the Swallow Heron Sect?”
Cheng Jinxian pondered for a moment before changing the topic. “If you want to restore the Swallow Heron Sect to its former glory, you must face oppression and threats from the Wind Parasol Pavilion and the Green Edge Sect.”
“When I accepted the sect token, I was already prepared for this.”
Xu Ning smiled.
Cheng Jinxian narrowed his eyes and slowly nodded.
Afterwards, Cheng Jinxian stopped talking, and the carriage quieted down.
Cheng Zengtao saw this and began to figure out Cheng Jinxian’s intentions for wanting to meet Xu Ning.
It seemed that he didn’t hate Xu Ning.
Soon after, the carriage stopped.
“Family Head, we are at the Canton Governor Manor.”
The horsekeeper outside said.
“Get off.”
Cheng Jinxian walked down first, followed by Xu Ning and Cheng Zengtao.
“Follow behind me.”
Cheng Jinxian suddenly turned his head and looked at Xu Ning while speaking to the both of them.
Cheng Zengtao suddenly felt relieved.
Afterwards, Xu Ning and Cheng Zengtao followed behind Cheng Jinxian and entered the Canton Governor Manor. Behind them were the young descendants of the Cheng family.
These young descendants of the Cheng family did not know Xu Ning’s true identity. So when they saw him walking behind Cheng Jinxian, they were quite puzzled as they tried to guess Xu Ning’s identity.
But because of Family Head Cheng’s prestige, they didn’t dare to ask directly.
‘As expected of the elites of State Wansheng…’
There were other guests in the Canton Governor Manor.
After seeing Cheng Jinxian, they greeted each other.
Xu Ning could sense terrifying auras from these people.
He had already seen several dao realm fourth stage core materialization realm masters.
“Master Wei!”
Before Cheng Jinxian could lead the Cheng family into a hall, a refined man stood in front of the hall.
Seeing this man, Cheng Jinxian quickly walked forward and greeted him.
Xu Ning immediately rushed towards Gray.
Xu Hujun and Cyan followed closely behind.
“Gray!”
After seeing Gray’s change, Xu Ning was taken aback.
Gray, who was previously the size of a kitten, now looked like a lion.
