Wandering Gods of Day and Night

Those cotton are to prevent the eel from being injured by the iron in its struggle, ruining the freshness of its flesh.

After being skewered, the eel’s head kept twisting, emitting a "crying" sound.

Zhou Xuan looked closely and only saw a human face on the eel’s head, quite horrifying.

"No wonder it’s called the Ghost-faced Eel," Zhou Xuan said.

Longba laughed and said: "Master, although this eel is ugly, its taste is exceptionally fresh. Stay at my residence tonight, have a drink, and forget the worries of the human world."

He then flicked his hand and said, "I just caught an eel, for now, don’t cast any bait. Wait for half an hour until the eels at the bottom of the pool lose their vigilance, then continue to bait them."

"Alright."

The servants responded one after another.

Zhou Xuan saw Longba voluntarily pause the fishing game and as if changing the subject, said: "Longba, I came to you for a reason, my senior brother asked me to bring you something."

"Oh, what is it?" Longba asked.

Zhou Xuan showed the Heavenly Spirit in his hand, about to speak when Longba raised his hand and shouted stop.

"Master, I know why you came here. It’s too crowded here, let’s step aside for a talk."

Ning Jin Longba pointed to the Snow Mountain in the distance and said.

"Alright, let’s talk in private."

Zhou Xuan turned and headed toward the Snow Mountain.

Ning Yu is known as "Infinite Legs," his feet possess divine skills, so Zhou Xuan didn’t hide his "Teleportation" and immediately stepped out to proceed to the Snow Mountain with divine movement.

Ning Jin Longba first called out to his youngest son "Bai Ze Longba" saying: "Bai Ze, dad is going to talk to the master about something, you can play, but don’t fall into the heavenly pool."

"Got it, got it."

Bai Ze waved his hand and said.

...

In the secret place of the Snow Mountain, Ning Jin Longba spoke directly to Zhou Xuan: "Master Ning Yu, the Boba Golden Buddha’s Heavenly Spirit Magical Artifact that was given to me, when I return to the mansion, I will examine it seriously,

however, there are some words I also hope you can convey to the Golden Buddha."

"Please speak."

Zhou Xuan sensed Ning Jin Longba’s "dishonesty," and listened carefully.

Ning Jin Longba said: "Master, Boba Golden Buddha intends to deal with Zhou Xuan and Zhao Wuya. The attitude of the other five families, I do not know, but our Longba family will not participate."

"Not participating..." Zhou Xuan frowned.

You Ning Jin Longba, not participating in the "Ping Shui Prefecture’s extermination of Zhou Xuan" major operation, how can I, Zhou Xuan, eliminate your entire Longba family in Ping Shui Prefecture?

"Yes, not participating."

Ning Jin Longba said: "Boba Golden Buddha said our six great families will not pass this harsh winter, will encounter great calamity—upon careful thought, I feel that such dangers have not yet come,

facing a yet to come danger, the Longba still have to become enemies with Zhou Xuan, this is very unwise."

"Are you very afraid of Zhou Xuan?" Zhou Xuan asked.

"Afraid! Very afraid! This Zhou Xuan is extremely terrifying. From the rumors our family has received, besides Mingjiang Prefecture and Ping Shui Prefecture being very submissive to him, Jingchuan Prefecture and Yellow Field Prefecture are also ambivalent in their relationships with him."

Ning Jin Longba expressed his concerns and said: "Jingchuan Prefecture, Mr. Ye as the main branch, Mr. Ye’s Hall Master ’Earth Child,’ has a close relationship with Zhou Xuan,

The second branch ’Dragon Seeking,’ the ancestors of Dragon Seeking are sworn brothers with Zhou Xuan.

Yellow Field Prefecture follows ’Bitter Ghost,’ I heard Bitter Ghost’s Master Lu Xingzhou, Second Master Lady Hong Guan, all have life’s companionship with Zhou Xuan."

"Therefore, Zhou Xuan’s influence is not two dominions but four."

Ning Jin Longba sighed and said: "Four dominions’ influence, how many Prefecture Cities does Jing Country have?

’Earth Child’ being unstoppable, currently only governing five dominions, Zhou Xuan occupies four dominions, almost able to hold equal status with Earth Child, to hunt such a person, just a slight mistake would risk clan extinction."

Zhou Xuan couldn’t help but ponder deeply, he never imagined this Ning Jin Longba would be quite sensible,

"If you are so sensible, then I am in a difficult position." Zhou Xuan thought silently.

At this time, Ning Jin Longba had already made up his mind and said to Zhou Xuan: "Master Ning Yu, if we don’t provoke Zhou Xuan, our Longba family might still last a few months, provoke Zhou Xuan, I fear the entire clan will be wiped out in just a few days,

therefore, I request you return to the temple, and be sure to convey to the Boba Golden Buddha—Ning Jin Longba will absolutely not participate in this matter, regarding the Golden Buddha’s plan, I will certainly not divulge a word."

Zhou Xuan immediately smiled and said: "Longba, you are not participating in this major event, I personally understand, but you see, I have come all this way, this Heavenly Spirit Magical Artifact, you must look at it."

He handed the already darkened Heavenly Spirit Bone to Ning Jin Longba and said: "Listen to the spirit bone, once you’ve listened, I can go back and account to my senior brother."

"But I’ve already decided not to participate..."

"Whether you participate or not is not important, don’t let me come for nothing." Zhou Xuan said.

Ning Jin Longba looked at the Heavenly Spirit Bone in his hand, after a moment of silence, he sat down cross-legged,

He used his fingernail to cut a slit on his brow, dripping brow blood onto the spirit bone, and then listened closely...

Zhou Xuan wanted Ning Jin Longba to listen to the bone purely to buy some time; he needed Ning Jin to participate in Boba’s plan.

"You quitting is not an option."

Zhou Xuan also sat cross-legged beside him, his heart spirit entering the Secret Realm.

"Little Brain, come over."
