Listening to the conversation of Zhu Xuanji and other Golden Core cultivators nearby, the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit was not well at all.

It clenched its dragon claws into fists, repeatedly slamming them on the armrests of the throne.

“The one who blasted the Immortal Palace wasn’t the City Lord’s Mansion, but Ning Zhuo!”

“What are you doing? What are you doing?!”

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit gritted its teeth, its face filled with a disappointed look.

It desperately wanted to get rid of Ning Zhuo because among all the competitors, Ning Zhuo was the most threatening to it.

And then Zhu Xuanji, on whom it had placed high hopes, single-handedly led all the Golden Core Elders astray.

“What kind of Divine Constable are you?”

“What are you even doing? You’re a disgrace to the name of Divine Constable!”

However, as the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit listened midway, it gradually fell silent.

“You know what, you might be right…”

“According to the clues Zhu Xuanji has gathered, his guess is quite reasonable.”

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit put itself in Zhu Xuanji’s shoes. If it were in Zhu Xuanji’s position, that’s exactly how it would appear! The City Lord’s Mansion would be the most suspicious.

“But… why did things develop this way?” The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit asked itself.

It quickly got the answer.

“It’s all Ning Zhuo’s fault!”

“He’s just too good at acting, too good at hiding.”

“But then again, who would have thought that he, a mere youth, only sixteen years old, with a cultivation base of only the third level of Qi Refining, would dare to blast the Immortal Palace?”

This behavior was simply extremely audacious and greedy. The youth’s slender chest contained an ambition that surpassed the imagination of the world!

One must know that the entire Molten Lava Immortal Palace was a legacy left by a Void Refinement stage expert.

It would be most logical for a cultivator of the same Void Refinement stage to become the master of the Immortal Palace.

It would be most appropriate for a Transformation Divinity stage cultivator to inherit the position of Palace Master of the Molten Lava Immortal Palace.

A Nascent Soul level would be barely acceptable, and the Golden Core level would not be enough.

And Ning Zhuo was not any of the above levels. He was only at the Qi Refining stage, the bottom of the cultivation world.

It was like a tiny ant trying to eat a tiger or leopard, which was simply laughable.

But the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit couldn’t laugh at all.

Because it had personally witnessed Ning Zhuo surviving in the cracks between several major forces, how he schemed against them, how he controlled a part of the situation.

And how he made his own cultivation base swell and skyrocket, how he mastered the complete divine ability of Suspended Life, how he seized opportunities and built his own small force.

Ning Zhuo was gradually, quietly approaching the throne of the Molten Lava Immortal Palace!

So far, no one had noticed him!

Such an experience and character was brilliant and inspirational enough, but from the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit’s point of view, it was a completely different feeling.

It wanted to regain its freedom, and if Ning Zhuo really became the Palace Master, it would have no confidence in escaping!

“Ning Zhuo is just a little monster.” Ning Zhuo was only at the Qi Refining stage, but he gave the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit the most real and heavy fear.

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit continued to listen.

When it heard that these Golden Core Elders planned to use Ning Zhuo as bait to lure the City Lord’s Mansion into making a mistake and assassinating Ning Zhuo, it showed a satisfied and surprised expression for the first time.

“But… will the City Lord’s Mansion really attack Ning Zhuo?”

Although the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit was looking forward to this scene, reason told it that this possibility was unlikely.

“If the City Lord’s Mansion really makes a move, then Ning Zhuo won’t be able to get away with it and will likely lose his life.”

“If the City Lord’s Mansion doesn’t make a move, Zhu Xuanji and others will notice something strange and reflect, and Ning Zhuo will have even more trouble.”

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit thought of this and immediately understood that no matter what the situation, it was beneficial to it. It couldn’t help but grin and laugh.

“No matter what, Ning Zhuo is in big trouble!”

“Hahaha, serves him right!”

“Who told him to try to covet the Molten Lava Immortal Palace with such strength!”

“Putting everything else aside, just the secret attention these Golden Core Elders are paying to him is enough to stop Ning Zhuo from continuing to cultivate freely like before.”

“In this situation, he will inevitably be subjected to heavy surveillance, and it will be impossible for him to break through to Foundation Establishment!”

Seeing Ning Zhuo in such bad luck, the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit was genuinely happy. It couldn’t help but raise its head and laugh three times.

Not long after it laughed, it heard the Golden Core cultivators discussing Ning Xiaohui’s matter.

It heard Zhu Xuanji giving the order to let Ning Xiaohui strive for the position of Pavilion Head of the Historical Records Pavilion.

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit couldn’t laugh at all.

At this moment, it suddenly realized that the unluckiest one was actually itself!

Historical Records Pavilion!

This special building recorded the big and small events of the Molten Lava Immortal Palace since its creation, as well as the detailed process of each event.

Many of the records in the Historical Records Pavilion were quite valuable!

Once Ning Xiaohui became the Pavilion Head of the Historical Records Pavilion, she could easily access and browse them.

The major and minor events that occurred in the Molten Lava Immortal Palace would be displayed before her eyes.

In this way, all the small actions and all the conspiracies and tricks the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit had used to escape, as well as its escape arrangements, would be completely exposed!

Like being hit on its vital spot, the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit fell into a state of extreme panic.

“What to do? What to do?!”

“Once Ning Xiaohui takes office, she will know everything.”

Unfortunately, the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit had limited authority and could not interfere.

It could only watch helplessly as Ning Xiaohui quickly accumulated merit and then smoothly became the Pavilion Head of the Historical Records Pavilion in the near future.

Ning Xiaohui’s success was almost inevitable because no one was competing with her.

Among those who had entered the Immortal Palace, she was the only one with the status of a Trial Disciple.

Ning Xiaohui was now a medic and also possessed the Ice Jade Hand, which was extremely good at repairing mechanical creations. The speed at which she accumulated merit far exceeded the past and far exceeded others.

The rank of the Pavilion Head of the Historical Records Pavilion was not high, and even if she was not the Pavilion Head, positions such as examiner would be enough for Ning Xiaohui to read the records in the Historical Records Pavilion!

“What to do? What to do?”

“Zhu Xuanji! You guy, you’re extremely useless in dealing with Ning Zhuo. But when dealing with me, you immediately found my weakness!”

“You’re so ruthless, so ruthless! Why are you targeting me like this?”

“Also, why did the Ning family send the good news about Ning Xiaohui at this time, allowing Zhu Xuanji to discover the Historical Records Pavilion?”

“Why am I so unlucky?”

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit paced anxiously in the main hall.

It was watching the fun from the sidelines, but suddenly found that the fire had burned onto itself!

It could no longer remain calm.

“Stop it, I must stop Ning Xiaohui!”

However, it was completely impossible for it to do it alone because it was the Palace Spirit of the Molten Lava Immortal Palace.

Facing people with the status of Trial Disciples, it could not attack them at all, nor could it arbitrarily reveal their information, or even lie.

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit struggled in the abyss of despair, but suddenly, it stopped.

“Wait a minute!”

“I can’t do it, but someone can.”

“To be precise… it’s Ning Zhuo!”

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit wanted to use Ning Zhuo.

“Ning Zhuo and I are on the same side.”

“Ning Zhuo blasted the Immortal Palace, and Ning Xiaohui will inevitably discover this from the Historical Records Pavilion.”

“Ning Zhuo can help me!”

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit became excited.

In fact, besides Ning Zhuo, the Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit did not dare to contact anyone else.

It had previously told Meng Chong some key information from the perspective of the Molten Lava Immortal Palace, and had not revealed its true identity.

“Currently, I can only contact Ning Zhuo.”

The Dragon-Turtle Fire Spirit was forced to take this path to save itself.

Ning Zhuo’s Residence.

The overturned houses and floors had all been repaired.

Ning Zhuo sat cross-legged on a futon, silently healing himself.

A group of Foundation Establishment cultivators surrounded him, with concern on their faces, and repeatedly inquired about what had happened.

“This is not something you can know, all of you retreat.” Ning Zhuo said coldly, slowly closing his eyes.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators had no choice but to leave the room.

They closed the door and exchanged glances. Everyone’s expression was not good, and their brows were full of doubts.

Under Zhu Xuanji’s strong pressure, the force that Ning Zhuo had just built up immediately showed signs of collapse.

The loyalty of these former stewards to Ning Zhuo was worrying.

And later, the branch clansmen who had actively joined Ning Zhuo were generally optimistic about Ning Zhuo’s development prospects, and came to make a fortune, not to risk their lives.

Some people admired Ning Zhuo’s performance and achievements, but most people supported Ning Zhuo simply because there was no other option in the Ning family branch.

“What did Ning Zhuo do to make Lord Zhu Xuanji make such a big fuss?”

“He doesn’t say anything, how can we know?”

“Pay close attention to this matter, it seems like the wind is not right.”

“Yes, Lord Zhu Xuanji’s attitude is obviously unkind. Could it be that Ning Zhuo has done something bad?”
