Nine Nether Dragon Emperor-Chapter 239: The Outlaw Ning San!

At High Heaven headquarters, the faces of the assembled big shots were unsightly. In the eyes of Bi Luo Palace, their collective importance didn’t even measure up to a single teenager? This was simply too humiliating!

"Perhaps she intends to trap that Ning Xuan," one of them spoke up. "Let’s wait and see."

Immediately, hope flickered in the eyes of many. That’s right! If she holds us in such contempt, then who does she think Ning Xuan is?! He just got his hands on Heavenly Crystals; Bi Luo Palace must be after them! This line of thought made them feel slightly better. Even though we were scammed out of Divine Crystals—which are in a completely different league—it’s not like Ning Xuan has anything but Heavenly Crystals!

Soon enough, however, they were dumbfounded. It wasn’t Luo Tianyi extorting Ning Xuan, but Ning Xuan extorting her!

The pair appeared to be in a strange, separate space, but the big shots could still hear their conversation. They heard Ning Xuan’s first question, "Did you install cameras around my villa?"

Although they didn’t know what "cameras" were, it only took them a moment of thought to grasp the concept.

"Oh, please don’t worry," Luo Tianyi replied. "It was only to ensure your safety. I can assure you there are absolutely none installed inside."

Why does she seem so timid in front of Ning Xuan? What is going on?! they wondered, looking at each other in confusion.

If Ning Xuan knew what they were thinking, he would have undoubtedly mocked them for being legally illiterate. As for him? He was Ning San, the Outlaw!

"Failing to inform me beforehand is an invasion of my personal privacy! You owe me an explanation!" Ning Xuan declared, perfectly composed, his tone unprecedentedly stern.

Luo Tianyi adopted a weak, pitiful, and helpless expression. "What... what do you want?"

"Compensation for emotional distress, naturally!"

"But I don’t have any money," she whimpered.

"Your master does, doesn’t she? Or you could use something else to cover the debt."

Luo Tianyi conceded immediately. "Um... alright. How much do you want?"

「Upper Realm.」

At High Heaven headquarters, the big shots were about to explode with frustration. Is this the same Luo Tianyi who had us completely at her mercy just moments ago?! She’s acting so weak and defenseless!

And Ning Xuan’s next move was an even bigger slap in the face.

"Let’s see now... One share for me, one for Doll, one for my Senior Sister, one for Sister Wangshu, one for Sister Qian... and then one each for San Wu, Xiaobai, Qian Fanfan, and Xiao Ya." In one breath, Ning Xuan had listed nine separate shares!

"Wait, I know who Qian Fanfan is, but who is Xiao Ya?" Luo Tianyi asked, confused.

"Qian Manman’s maid. She’s been aboard my mobile villa. Where I come from, we believe in equality for all, so naturally, she must be included."

Luo Tianyi replied, completely speechless, "But her name isn’t Xiao Ya! It’s..." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Ning Xuan cut her off. "What her name is doesn’t matter. Her personal privacy was also violated, so you have to pay up."

"You... you’re unbelievable! Fine, take them! Take them all!" With a wave of her hand, Luo Tianyi relented.

The scene changed, and they saw Ning Xuan reappear in the Heavenly Palace Square. The difference was that Ning Xuan now held a stack of IOUs in his hand—the very same ones the big shots from the major families had signed at High Heaven headquarters!

At that moment, the big shots just stared at one another, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

One hundred million Divine Crystals! Ning Xuan had gotten his hands on them with just a few words. The speed was simply incredible! All their families and major powers combined couldn’t move that fast.

Still, it’s better for the IOUs to be in Ning Xuan’s hands than Bi Luo Palace’s, right? Bi Luo Palace promised to protect client privacy, and since we’ve effectively paid, our secrets should be safe. Besides, Ning Xuan knows nothing about us. More importantly, he’s only at the Heavenly Realm. Even with the IOUs, who in their right mind would ever pay him back?!

With this rationalization, they breathed a collective sigh of relief. But their relief was short-lived.

On the display screen, Ning Xuan’s eyes lit up as he looked over the IOUs.

The main issue had been resolved, and despite the steep price, Nanling Bully was in a good mood. "What’s got you looking so happy?" he asked casually upon seeing Ning Xuan.

Then, he caught the look in Ning Xuan’s eyes and his heart lurched. He instantly wanted to slap himself. Being targeted by Ning Xuan never means anything good!

As expected, Ning Xuan said, "I never realized you all were so wealthy."

Before Nanling Bully could process the comment, Ning Xuan flicked his wrist, and an IOU appeared in his hand. Nanling Bully looked down, and his vision instantly went black.

It was an IOU written by the core leadership of his own family! What was more terrifying was the amount owed: a full eight million Divine Crystals! Not Heavenly Crystals, but Divine Crystals, with an exchange rate ten thousand times higher! This was such bullshit!

"Y-y-you... where did you get this?!" Nanling Bully asked, staring at Ning Xuan and trembling.

Ning Xuan smiled. "Judging by your reaction, it’s authentic. Wonderful!" I haven’t even made it to Yao Guang yet and I’ve already secured this much income. How could this not be great?

"Junior Brother, what’s that? Let me see!" Wu Pianpian came over to join the excitement.

Ning Xuan simply handed the entire stack of IOUs to her. The other women had already appeared and now gathered around.

Qian Yourong, of all people, knew the value of Divine Crystals. She had also heard of the great powers of the Upper Realm. Any single one of them was an entity she would have had to look up to in the past. Yet now, Ning Xuan held so many of their IOUs! It feels like a dream. This is simply too unreal!

"How... how did you do this?" Qian Yourong asked, looking at Ning Xuan with pure admiration.

If Qian Fanfan were to see this expression, her jaw would drop. In her mind, Qian Yourong was the pinnacle of intellect; the person she admired most in the world. Yet now, her revered aunt was looking at Ning Xuan as if he were a god.

Ning Xuan, however, was still in the mood to joke. "You’d understand if you watched some videos of Zhang San, the Outlaw."

Qian Yourong was completely baffled. What on earth? An outlaw named Zhang San? How confident would someone have to be to pick such a brazen name!

"Haha, we’re rich! Junior Brother, your Senior Sister could just die from loving you so much!" Having tallied the total, Wu Pianpian went wild with excitement. One hundred million Divine Crystals! This is a truly astronomical sum. With this much wealth, I can buy whatever I want, even when we get to Yao Guang!

"I hear the girls in Yao Guang are pretty cute! Junior Brother, we should go check them out when we get there!" Wu Pianpian said cheekily, planting a kiss on his cheek and wrapping her arms around his neck.

Black lines formed on Ning Xuan’s forehead. This Senior Sister of mine... how is she even more of a pervert than I am? This won’t do.

After a moment, however, he lowered his voice and asked, "How do you know that?"

"Oh, I know lots of things. From now on, just give me some more Heavenly Crystals—no, wait, Divine Crystals—and I guarantee I’ll tell you about all sorts of fun things. And they’re all very... stimulating!" she finished, wiggling her eyebrows with a look of playful innuendo.
