Chapter 399 -398 Not Letting People Down

Lei Lifei’s heart skipped a beat when he heard Luo Ning sigh.

And after hearing her next line, he really wanted to roll his eyes.

“You haven’t fleeced me enough yet? You’re even after my seafood.”

Not only did Luo Ning not deny it, but she also nodded earnestly, “Yeah, since I was born outside, I’ve seen less of the good stuff.”

Lei Lifei: “…” The girl’s skin was indeed thick, and she liked to climb along the pole. He was truly convinced.

“I admit defeat. When you return to the country, I’ll pack a few boxes of seafood for you to take back, free of charge, as a gift from your Uncle Lei.”

Having the Snake King fleeced was one thing, but a few boxes of Spirit Array nourished seafood were another.

Although after returning, he reckoned he’d get a talking-to from the elder who specialized in breeding this kind of seafood about squandering resources, he’d have to pinch his nose and accept it.

Luo Ning laughed lightly: “I knew Uncle Lei was a good person.”

Though Old Lei said there was no need to buy, she wouldn’t let him suffer a loss.

Lei Lifei immediately waved his hand, “No, I’m not a good person, don’t give me a card of goodness.”

Being given a card of goodness was definitely not a good thing; he was scared.

Luo Ning found Old Lei’s reaction too funny; he must have had a significant psychological shadow.

She took out a porcelain bottle from her bag and handed it over, “Uncle Lei, you’ve been taking care of us ever since we arrived here. This is a meeting gift for you.”

Lei Lifei, curious, took the porcelain bottle and opened the lid, his casual face turned to shock.

“Can these pills do Qi Nourishing and Essence Building?” He looked at Luo Ning with disbelief.

Luo Ning smiled and nodded: “Yes, the white ones are Qi Nourishing Pills, and the brown ones are Qi Replenishing Pills.”

“Uncle Lei not only has great Eye Power, but also has a keen nose!” she added.

Indeed, to become her father’s friend through life and death, Old Lei was certainly not as simple and mediocre as he seemed.

Luo Ranran had told Luo Ning that among the heirs of the major families, Old Lei was the most troublemaking, yet his strength was at the bottom.

Every time he couldn’t win a fight, he called on his father, making other families on the island speechless and annoyed with entangling with him.

In any case, Old Lei was a “disaster” on the island, and her father used to be one too.

Luo Ning now realized that if Old Lei went out to act, he could definitely win an acting award.

For so many years, the people from other families hadn’t put him high on their watch list, Old Lei was definitely talented.

Lei Lifei then realized that his excitement might have revealed a bit too much strength.

But then he thought it didn’t matter, since these two girls probably wouldn’t betray him.

Still, he laughed it off, “My best skills are my Eye Power and sense of smell; I’m not so great at other things.”

“Could it be that you made these pills yourself?” he changed the topic.

He looked at the bracelet on Luo Ning’s wrist, where the Snake King which seemed to have been sleeping, had now opened its eyes and was eagerly eyeing the bottle in his hand.

He guessed right away that aside from her natural Talent, these pills must have played a significant role in Luo Ning subduing the Snake King.

If Luo Ning could hear his thoughts, she would definitely marvel at Old Lei’s Seven-Pointed Heart for seeing things with such clarity and understanding.

Luo Ning nodded, “Indeed, I concocted these myself. I hope Uncle Lei likes them?”

Lei Lifei immediately closed the porcelain bottle and placed it into the pocket over his chest.

He grinned, “I really like them. In the future, you can respect your uncle with more of these.”

Luo Ning felt like facepalming; this guy’s skin was exceptionally thick.

She couldn’t help but ask, laughing and crying at the same time, “Are you going to be an uncle again this time?”

Lei Lifei patted the porcelain bottle on his chest, “That’s right. As long as there’s a tribute, you can call me uncle every day.”

These Pills were even better than the resources he received from the family; of course, he liked them.

As for whether it was shameful to ask his niece for things, he didn’t care.

Luo Ning rolled her eyes, “Heh!”

Lei Lifei said with a smile, “If you take this stuff to the exchange meeting, you should be able to swap it for a lot of good things.”

He had felt that Luo Ning must have come to the island prepared, and sure enough, he had guessed right.

He suddenly looked forward to seeing the Luo Family’s reaction when they found out that Luo Ning could not only craft High-level Magical Tools but also concoct these high-level Pills—what would their faces look like?

Would the Luo Family regret slowly pushing away such a talent as Luo Ning?

Luo Ning nodded with a smile, “I was thinking the same thing.”

Speaking of Magic Artifacts, Lei Lifei suddenly thought of a question, “Do you still have High-level Magical Tools on your hands? Sell some to your uncle, how about it?”

Seeing Old Lei starting to take advantage of the title ‘uncle’ and climbing up along the pole, Luo Ning was both laughing and crying.

She replied, “I did bring some over, I’ll sell them to you after the exchange meeting is over.”

Lei Lifei nodded, “Alright, it’s a deal.”

He thought to himself, his son bringing Luo Ning back to the Lei Family didn’t seem like such a bad deal after all.

After they finished eating and had some cold drinks, when the time was almost up, Lei Lifei led everyone to the venue of the exchange meeting.

The venue was in a mansion at the center of the small island.

There were only two areas in the central mansion, one was the exchange area, which was large enough to accommodate a gathering of a thousand people.

The other was the rest area, which was exclusively for family members to rest, like drinking tea, chatting, and communicating with each other.

Lei Lifei was punctual, so when the Lei Family arrived, people from other families were already in the exchange area.

The exchange area was decorated in an antique style, with several tables carved from thousand-year-old wood in the center, specifically for the major families to exchange items.

Around the tables, there were many wooden chairs; the wood alone was obviously expensive, casually taking one out could fetch a few million at auction.

It had to be said, these ancient Fengshui Families really had a deep heritage, and were very wealthy—fat sheep indeed!

When Lei Family’s people walked into the hall, all the familiar gazes inside looked over.

And the focus was on Luo Ning.

Luo Ning’s identity was no secret among the ancient Fengshui Families, plus the fact that she had publicly refused to acknowledge the Luo Family and had won many good items from the Lou Family and Lei Family contests, even taking the Snake King for herself.

This added an extra layer of mystery to her, making people from other families want to have a look.

Especially the younger generations from the other major families, each one was extremely curious about Luo Ning.

After all, the topic that had been the talk of the island lately was all about Luo Ning.

As soon as Luo Ning entered, she felt gazes coming from all directions, but she walked forward calmly and confidently with Lei Lifei and the others.

This time Luo Ning didn’t conceal her natural temperament; with her extraordinary appearance and dressed in a white retro long dress, she seemed to exude a fairy-like aura.

Many people brightened when they saw Luo Ning, feeling she lived up to her reputation as the topic of conversation—not disappointing in looks and temperament.

The younger generation focused on looks and temperament, while the elders fixed their eyes on Luo Ning’s wrist.

When they saw the semi-transparent, two-headed Little Golden Snake coiled around her wrist, the high-ranking members of the major families all revealed thoughtful expressions.

It turned out the news released by the Lei Family was true—the Snake King had been subdued by Luo Ning.

Seeing was indeed more shocking than hearing.
