Chapter 1131: Even a Dragon Can't Overpower a Local Sna

d. She knew Chen Baoguo had very discerning eyes; back when Chen Ping and Geng Shanshan were together, Chen Baoguo had been strongly opposed to it. Now that he said this about Su Yuxi, her appearance..."Young Master Ning, it seems to have been a misunderstanding. However, your Ning family is far away in a distant land, why did you come all the way to this impoverished region of Xichuan to build land and houses"

Luo Xiang asked Ning Zhi.

Ning Zhi knew Luo Xiang didn't know the secret of this Demon Suppression Tower, and he wouldn't tell him. So, he smiled faintly and said: "Although Xichuan is poor, the environment is good, the scenery is beautiful, and it is quiet, which is a good place for cultivation."

"Besides, the Head of the Valley and my Ning family came quickly this time. With the Valley being in such a state of ruin now, and the Head of the Valley being killed, I rebuilt this place to ensure that other descendants of the Valley have a place to live!"

Luo Xiang burst into laughter after hearing this: "Haha, I didn't expect Young Master Ning to be so kind-hearted!"

However, this Xichuan is not as peaceful as Kyoto. There are often evil cultivators and barbarians appearing. If they hurt Young Master Ning then it would be a loss that outweighs the gain.

"Young Master Ning, you appreciate delicate flesh, and certainly wouldn't find comfort in this place. As for rebuilding the Gu family, let my Luo family handle it. After all, our Luo family and the Gu family have been acquainted for hundreds of years, and we live quite close by!"

Ning Zhi heard this, his brow furrowed, and his face turned cold.

He could tell that Luo Xiang was actually trying to compete with him for the Valley family's territory.

If there were no Demon Suppression Tower, Ning Zhi wouldn't care about this forsaken place. But now that the Demon Suppression Tower exists, regardless of who it is, Ning Zhi won't let go.

"Young Master Luo, do you mean to fight with me for this piece of land belonging to the Gu family"

Ning Zhi's face darkened, a cold glint in his eyes.

"Master Ning, if you insist on thinking this way, I have nothing more to explain. You are far away in Kyoto, running to Xichuan to compete for territory with us. Isn't that a bit too much"

Luo Xiang generously admitted.

"Hmph, what are you Luo Xiang doing in the Mobei while I'm in Xichuan You don't have the right to point fingers at me. Let me tell you, this Gu family's territory is mine. If you disagree, then let's settle it."

"Let's see who's more powerful, the Luo family or the Ning family. Don't think that because our Ning family is far away, you have anything to be afraid of!"

Ningzhi's face was firm; he was determined to have this piece of land and would not let anyone else have it.

Luo Xiang didn't expect Ning Zhi to be so resolute for the sake of Gujiazhuang Garden, this piece of land. This was somewhat beyond his expectations!

Although Lu Xiang is very angry now, it's not worth falling out with the Ning family just for the ruins of the Gu family.

However, now that the Ning family has established a foothold in Xichuan, it will likely be much harder for the Luo family to expand their influence in the future.

After some thought, Luo Xiang conceded with a faint smile, "Since Young Master Ning likes this place, feel free to use it. How could I possibly turn against Young Master Ning over such a small piece of land"

"If Young Master Ning has time, please come to my Luo family for a visit. I will certainly treat you well..."

Luo Xiang didn't know the secret of the Demon Suppression Tower, so he compromised and left.

If he knew, he would definitely fight Ning Zhi to the death.

Seeing Luo Xiang leave, Ning Zhi finally let out a sigh of relief. As the saying goes, even a mighty dragon can't overcome a local snake. If Luo Xiang had really wanted to make a move, Ning Zhi wouldn't have stood a chance.

Moreover, if we need to dispatch people from the Ning family all the way from thousands of miles away to fight alongside the Luo family, then who knows who will win or lose in the end.

"How long have I been cultivating this time"

Ning Zhi asked his subordinates.

"Master, you've been practicing for almost half a month now..."

The subordinate replied.

"Half a month!" Ning Zhi's face lit up with joy. "At this rate, I'll be able to reach the half-step Martial Marquis before the end of the year, hahaha..."

Ning Zhi laughed wildly, then commanded Zhong Bo: "Speed up the construction of the estate. This will be my home from now on."

"Yes, sir..." Zhong Bo nodded.

Ning Zhi turned and walked into the Demon Suppression Tower, starting his cultivation anew!vered in shimmering gold scales like a dried-up golden dragon!Chen Ping stared warily at the giant crab in front of him, while Dong Jiahao let out a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Ping was still...
