Lin Xiao nodded, his face grim, after hearing Ning Yuan's words.
"Where is the address of the Ethereal Immortal Palace?"
Lin Xiao was very curious about where this so-called Ethereal Immortal Palace was located.
What kind of people were within it?
A sect that could turn people into Divine Realm experts, a sect that could deal with the Unrotted Bones…
It didn't seem like ancient martial arts, but more like… immortals?
Land Immortals?
"Do you know why it's called the Ethereal Immortal Palace?" Ning Yuan sneered when he heard Lin Xiao's question. "If they knew its exact location, then the 'Ethereal' in their palace's name would be meaningless."
"Alright, second question." Lin Xiao nodded, understanding that no immortal palace in this world would be easily found. "Why did they attack the Ning family? Was the Ning family back then a sect like a cult or a demonic path? Or did they simply want to silence dissenting voices?"
"Do you believe the answer I give you?"
Ning Yuan did not answer immediately. He said calmly.
"If you say it, I will believe it."
Lin Xiao's reply was decisive.
"Good, then I will tell you. The reason they wanted to exterminate the Ning family back then was to destroy the only force capable of opposing them." Ning Yuan said with a cold laugh. "However, the Ning family was powerful then too. Ten Unrotted Bones appeared at once. Even the Ethereal Immortal Palace paid a heavy price to eliminate them. The remaining forces were only enough to seal the new generation disciples of the Ning family."
"If someone hadn't been incited by the Ethereal Immortal Palace back then, the Ning family would still be powerful today."
"Incited?"
Ming Yi narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, the Ethereal Immortal Palace had a better reputation than the Ning family at the time. You must know, the Ning family has always been ambiguous, neither good nor evil. Their冥医 (Mingyi - Medical Arts) heritage can not only revive the dying and heal the wounded, but also control zombies. Many times, the Ning family's actions were simply for their own principles."
"Therefore, some people had already taken a dislike to the Ning family. When the Ethereal Immortal Palace made their move, and most people chose to observe, those people shamelessly launched a surprise attack."
Ning Yuan seemed much calmer when talking about these matters this time.
Or rather, he had hidden all his anger deep inside. No one knew what he would do if he found those people.
Lin Xiao blurted out, "The Celestial Doctors."
"Yes, it was them, these hypocrites, these madmen."
Ning Yuan said viciously.
Someone who wanted to refine Unrotted Bones in this era called others madmen? It could only be said that perhaps madmen were enemies of each other.
Like poles repel.
"It was them who attacked. They took advantage of our Ning family's weakened state, wanting to cut off the 冥医 (Mingyi) heritage. All the while, they spouted nonsense about acting on behalf of heaven."
"That sounds like their style."
Ming Yi also sneered. He had no good feelings towards the Celestial Doctors at all.
"If it weren't for this, with the 冥医 (Mingyi) still here, what achievements would those Celestial Doctors have? They would have to live with their heads bowed, tail between their legs," Ning Yuan snorted.
Lin Xiao had a general understanding.
However, he still couldn't understand why the Ethereal Immortal Palace would attack the Ning family even at the cost of mutual destruction?
Ten Unrotted Bones!
