"Here it is!"
Early in the morning, Yuan Er arrived at the gate of Ning Zhuo's small courtyard.
Seeing him attempting to enter, a qi refining stage Ning family cultivator on patrol quickly stepped forward to block him, saying, "Halt."
Although Yuan Er was in the foundation establishment stage, upon seeing the identity token on the qi refining cultivator’s waist, he dared not act recklessly. "I'm here to see Ning Zhuo. I am Yuan Er, the current leader of the Monkey Head gang."
"Please wait a moment while I report this," the qi refining cultivator said, giving Yuan Er a glance before exchanging a look with his approaching companion.
His companion nodded and stood at the gate, blocking Yuan Er's entry.
Yuan Er felt disheartened, thinking that as a gang leader, he was now reduced to waiting outside a courtyard just to see a mere qi refining stage cultivator.
However, he had gathered quite a bit of information in recent days and knew that Ning Zhuo held significant importance to the Ning family and was favored by the young clan leader, Ning Xiaoren.
"Why don’t I have a powerful family to rely on?"
With this thought, the reporting cultivator returned, saying, "You may enter."
Yuan Er stepped into the courtyard, pausing momentarily after a few steps.
