I Have A Martial Arts Panel

Chapter 286 New Harmony King Duan Chaofeng?

Xu Ning, He Mingye, and Si Ying stayed in the Source Sect for half a month.

During this period of time, Ding Bo visited the Source Sect alone again.

He found Xin Andao and showed kindness to him.

Xin Andao knew very well that Ding Bo must have done this because of Xu Ning.

Thinking of this, Xin Andao was grateful to Xu Ning

Xu Ning’s arrival not only reversed the crisis of the Source Sect, but also helped the Source Sect achieve a stable state of development for a long time.

Half a month later, Xu Ning and the other two chose to leave.

Their original purpose of coming here was to see the situation of their old friends in the Abyss North. And now that everything was safe, there was no need to stay here any longer. Afterwards, the three of them returned to the Swallow Heron Sect.

This time, He Mingye and Si Ying were officially prospective elders of the Swallow Heron Sect.

After staying at the Swallow Heron Sect for a few days, Xu Ning set off to the Harmony King Mansion.

This trip was because after returning from abroad, Xu Ning had promised Duan Chaofeng that after arranging the affairs of the sect, he would go to the Harmony King Mansion.

Harmony King Mansion.

“Xu Ning, you’re finally here!”

Xu Ning arrived at the Harmony King Mansion, and Zhang He greeted him.

Zhang He was sincerely happy to see Xu Ning.

The previous trip abroad had made Zhang He and Xu Ning very close.

“Brother Zhang, I haven’t seen you for a while, but your cultivation has improved again…”

Xu Ning smiled.

Zhang He laughed. “I have indeed improved a little.”

“After experiencing a life-and-death crisis overseas, I have gained a new understanding of martial arts cultivation. After more than a month of seclusion, I feel that I am now one step closer to the barrier of the seventh stage of the dao realm. The breakthrough that I expected to take decades to achieve is now possible in less than three years.”

Zhang He was a little proud when he said this.

Although Zhang He knew that his talent was incomparable to Xu Ning’s, he was already satisfied with this speed of improvement.

“Congratulations in advance, Brother Zhang.”

Xu Ning was happy for Zhang He. “Come, I’ll take you to see His Highness.” As Zhang He led the way for Xu Ning, he said, “By the way, Master Dong Ji went out to the sea again to capture that Night Beast.”

“But this time, in addition to Senior Dong Ji, three more high level dao realm masters and a large number of elite masters, all of whom are the capable generals of His Majesty, will be following the convoy. One of the high level dao realm master is Zhuo Weisong’s father, Zhuo Cengyun.”

Zhuo Weisong, one of Duan Chaofeng’s trusted aides, had a feud with Xu Ning.

The last time he went out to sea, because of the Night Beast, he couldn’t return. No one knew whether he was dead or alive.

‘So the subordinates of the Harmony King are personally taking action this time…’

Xu Ning thought to himself.

The temptation of an apex demon beast was quite high.

“By the way, Xu Ning, there is one more thing I have to tell you in advance…”

This time, Zhang He sent a voice transmission to Xu Ning.

“What is it?”

Xu Ning realized that Zhang He might want to tell him some secrets.

“His Majesty may be preparing to pass the throne to His Highness.”

Zhang He’s simple words shocked Xu Ning.

If what Zhang He said was true, it meant that Duan Chaofeng was about to become the new Harmony King. “Around when?”

Xu Ning asked.

“Probably within the next month or two.”

Zhang He responded, “Now that His Majesty has reached the peak of dao realm eighth stage, he is ready to break through to dao realm ninth stage at any time. After passing the throne to his heir, His Majesty may go to the imperial capital and attempt to break through in the forbidden land of the Duan royal family.”

“Is that so…”

Xu Ning revealed a pondering look.

He and Zhang He looked at each other. Both sides could see the other’s intentions, and they both smiled faintly.

The two knew very well that the two of them were the people Duan Chaofeng valued the most.

Once Duan Chaofeng succeeded as the Harmony King, their status would also rise. At that time, they would be famous big shots in State Guqing.

Moreover, the family behind Zhang He and the Swallow Heron Sect behind Xu Ning would benefit greatly.

“Just keep this in mind, don’t mention it to anyone else.”

Zhang He reminded.

Only a few people knew about this.

Zhang He took the initiative to tell Xu Ning because of his relationship with Xu Ning, and because of Xu Ning’s current status in Duan Chaofeng’s heart.

“Understood, Brother Zhang.”

Xu Ning responded

Afterwards, Zhang He brought Xu Ning to Duan Chaofeng’s study.

After seeing Duan Chaofeng again, Xu Ning noticed that Duan Chaofeng had advanced from the core cleansing realm to the core transformation realm, and his temperament had changed a little.

This change was not caused by a promotion in strength alone. Xu Ning guessed that it might also have a lot to do with his impending succession to the throne.

“Congratulations Your Highness on advancing to the core transformation realm.”

After Xu Ning saw Duan Chaofeng, he took the initiative to congratulate him.

“Xu Ning, you are here!”

After seeing Xu Ning, Duan Chaofeng smiled.

“Everyone leave.”

There were a few beautiful maids serving Duan Chaofeng, but when he saw Xu Ning, he chased all of them away.

“How is the development of the Swallow Heron Sect?”

Duan Chaofeng asked Xu Ning.

“It’s all thanks to Your Highness. With the help of the prestige of the Harmony King Mansion, the Swallow Heron Sect has become stronger than before. Except for the fact that the strength of the mid-level disciples in the sect is still a little lacking, they have developed well in other aspects.”

Xu Ning said, “Especially with the help of the martial arts resource trading channels opened by the Harmony King Mansion, the current Swallow Heron Sect is basically self-sufficient.”

“That’s good.”

Duan Chaofeng nodded in satisfaction.

“Just a month ago, Mo Lan sent someone to the mansion.”

Duan Chaofeng paused for a moment and continued, “She not only thanked us, but she also brought a lot of gifts.”

“Oh?!

Xu Ning raised his eyebrows.

Duan Chaofeng’s relationship with Mo Lan was not good, but when they went out to sea, the two sides had gone through the same danger, so the conflict between the two sides was reduced.

Mo Lan had sent people here obviously to show her goodwill.

“Mo Lan wanted to thank you personally.”

Duan Chaofeng said, “This gift is specially prepared for you.”

Duan Chaofeng took out a storage ring.

“Although there are some indirect old grudges between the Swallow Heron Sect and Mo Lan, it’s a waste not to take what she gave.”

Duan Chaofeng threw the storage ring to Xu Ning. Xu Ning took it and looked at it. He found that this storage ring was very exquisite.

It was obviously a practical object, but with the beautiful patterns on the ring, it looked like a piece of art.

Xu Ning didn’t hide from Duan Chaofeng and Zhang He. He just openly explored the storage

ring.

‘What a large space!’

This was Xu Ning’s first thought.

The space in this storage ring was one-third of the size of the Hidden Moon Bead.

The value of this storage ring alone was extremely high.

After all, not everyone had a spatial treasure.

Xu Ning could give this spatial ring to Cheng Zengtao and the others. By doing this, it would be much easier to store the resources of the sect.

‘These resources…’

After admiring the large space in the storage ring, Xu Ning saw an abundance of resources inside.

Inside this storage ring, there were medicinal pills, spirit herbs, dao weapons, and some special artifacts.

With these treasures, he could build quite a large sect on the spot.

‘The energy value of the medicinal pills and spirit herbs present should exceed 7 million…’

Xu Ning estimated.

Xu Ning now had 1 million units of energy remaining. Combined with these 7 million units, he had more than 8 million units of energy, which was more than half the energy required to advance to the core transformation realm.

“Princess Mo Lan is quite generous…”

Xu Ning smiled and put away the storage ring.

“Mo Lan is obviously showing you kindness.”

Duan Chaofeng smiled and said, “When Mo Lan saw your strength and potential overseas, she had already decided to show kindness to you. She is not stupid, she can definitely see that your future limit is high. She may not want to rope you in, but she definitely has the intention to resolve the feud between the two of you.”

Xu Ning had already noticed what Duan Chaofeng said.

“However, whether you want to ease the relationship with her is up to you. I will definitely not interfere.”

Duan Chaofeng said, “Also, after Mo Lan returned to the Promise King Mansion, the Wind Parasol Pavilion and the Green Edge Sect were forcibly disbanded. The main reason for this is definitely because Cen Yumou and Liang Tingang have been killed, but you might also be a factor.”

Xu Ning did not answer.

However, it might be like what Duan Chaofeng said. Forcefully disbanding the Wind Parasol Pavilion and the Green Edge Sect would completely eliminate the enemies of the Swallow Heron Sect. She was obviously showing her attitude towards Xu Ning by doing this.

“One more thing…”

Duan Chaofeng’s eyes were deep. “Did Zhang He mention that to you?”

Xu Ning immediately understood what he meant.

What Duan Chaofeng was referring to was definitely the fact that he was about to inherit the throne of the Harmony King.

“Yes…”

Xu Ning nodded.

“After I succeed the Harmony King, I will definitely put you and Zhang He in an important position.”

Duan Chaofeng said straightforwardly, “When the time comes, you may have to frequently travel between the Harmony King Mansion and the Swallow Heron Sect. I hope you can be prepared.”

“Okay.”

Xu Ning nodded.

“Your Highness.”

After the exchange, Xu Ning took the initiative to speak.

He wanted to talk to Duan Chaofeng about the Red Sea Demon Sect.

“Your Highness, do you know about the seeds of the Red Sea Demon Sect?”

Xu Ning asked.

“I do.”

Duan Chaofeng had also heard about this. “The seeds of the Red Sea Demon Sect are the core of their sect. Apparently, they are all top disciples who are qualified to compete for the position of sect master. Legend has it that the strongest seeds have the strength of a dao realm ninth stage master.”

“The Red Sea Demon Sect has tens of thousands of disciples but only a little more than a hundred seed disciples. None of them can be underestimated. Even the current Third Prince and Eighth Princess have the status of seeds in the Red Sea Demon Sect.”

“Why do you ask this?”

Duan Chaofeng was a little curious.

“Your Highness, I happen to have a seed token of the Red Sea Demon Sect in my hand. If I want to, I can join the Red Sea Demon Sect at any time and obtain the seed status.”

Xu Ning said. “What!?”

Duan Chaofeng and Zhang He’s expressions changed.

Even Duan Chaofeng himself was not qualified to become a core disciple of the Red Sea Demon Sect.

Even if he joined the Red Sea Demon Sect, he would at most be an elite disciple, and that would even have to rely on his status.

“How did you get a seed token of the Red Sea Demon Sect?”

Duan Chaofeng quickly asked.

Beside him, Zhang He also looked over with an interested expression.

Faced with Duan Chaofeng’s questions, Xu Ning told him the process of obtaining the seed token.

He then added that Gu Songying had invited him.

“This…”

After Duan Chaofeng and Zhang He heard this, their expressions were both very interesting.

They didn’t expect Xu Ning to have such a hidden identity.

Duan Chaofeng felt that he had already overestimated Xu Ning’s capabilities, but Xu Ning was still underestimated by him.

“I knew you were a master alchemist, but I didn’t expect your dao realm alchemy technique to be the Red Sea Pill Sutra…”

Duan Chaofeng still had a tone of shock. He obviously hadn’t recovered yet.

Duan Chaofeng’s perception of Xu Ning changed again. If Xu Ning really became a seed of the Red Sea Demon Sect, then his status in State Wansheng would not be weaker than his.

“Your Highness, do you think I need to obtain the status of a seed?”

Xu Ning asked Duan Chaofeng.

With Duan Chaofeng’s status and knowledge, he must have a deeper understanding of the Red Sea Demon Sect, and he must also know the pros and cons of obtaining a seed status.

“Yes! Of course!”.

Duan Chaofeng’s outburst far exceeded Xu Ning’s expectations.

Duan Chaofeng seemed a little excited. “You must obtain the status of a seed, it will be extremely beneficial to you!”

Duan Chaofeng broke away from his shock. He then realized the practical benefits of Xu Ning becoming a seed of the Red Sea Demon Sect. Once Xu Ning obtained this identity, Duan Chaofeng would also benefit.

With a good friend as a seed, his status in the Duan royal family would also greatly improve.

Moreover, Duan Chaofeng had high expectations of Xu Ning. As the Harmony Prince, Duan Chaofeng had seen too many talented people since he was

born.

But Xu Ning’s potential was still far above them all.

In Duan Chaofeng’s opinion, if Xu Ning was allowed to continue to grow, he might really touch the helm of the Red Sea Demon Sect.

Even if he couldn’t, he would definitely be promoted to an elder.

“Forget about the various resources in the Red Sea Demon Sect, just the identity itself will benefit you greatly.”

Duan Chaofeng said, “Xu Ning, do you know the origin of the Red Sea Demon Sect?”

“I don’t know.”

Xu Ning shook his head.

“The Red Sea Demon Sect was established eight hundred years ago…”

Duan Chaofeng said, “Eight hundred years is indeed a long time. This time frame has already exceeded the lifespan of most dao realm masters. However, for those large sects that have been passed down for a long time, this is nothing. In State Wansheng, there are large sects that have been passed down for more than a thousand years.”

“But why did the rising Red Sea Demon Sect surpass those old sects and become the strongest force outside the Duan royal family?”

Duan Chaofeng paused. “One of the important reasons is that the Red Sea Demon Sect’s leader, the Red Sea Demon Lord, is a member of the Duan royal family!”
