Chapter 865: Chapter 865

Su Fan wanted to see if any other women in the Ning family possessed the extreme Yin body.

Searching for women with an extreme Yin body was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Although his search method wasn't entirely reliable, it was still better than the needle in the haystack method.

Ning Miaoyan chose her words carefully before she spoke, "The Ning family mainly operates three businesses."

"The first business is maritime trade, and the second is shipbuilding."

"These two businesses are well-known to outsiders."

"But the Ning family also has a third business, deep-sea salvage."

"After all, the world is three parts land and seven parts sea, and there are plenty of treasures in the ocean."

"Throughout history, countless ships have sunk to the ocean floor."

"Most of the items Divine Doctor Su saw in the video earlier were salvaged from the deep sea."

While Ning Miaoyan spoke, Su Fan listened intently.

He also understood why the alchemy furnace used by the Divine Doctor Sun Simiao ended up in the sea.

It must have been taken by the Eight-Nation Alliance from China and then sunk with a ship on the way back.

After explaining the Ning family's businesses, Ning Miaoyan continued, "The head of the Ning family is usually elected by thirty senior family members."

"In the main branch, my second uncle Ning Tianhe is the most respected."

"But my second uncle and my father are currently not in Hang City."

"Some senior members supporting the main branch also can't return to Hang City immediately."

"If the vote were held now, the position of Ning family head would fall to the second branch."

"The main and second branches of the Ning family have long passed the stage of sincere cooperation and are deeply engaged in internal conflict."

"If someone from the second branch becomes the family head, the main branch will face a lot of trouble."

"If my second uncle Ning Tianhe returns, with his Gang Qi Realm strength, even if the second branch had malicious intentions, they wouldn't be able to do much to us."

At this point, Su Fan understood what Ning Miaoyan was hoping for.

Ning Miaoyan hoped he could keep Ning Zhengde stable for a while, until the Gang Qi Realm expert Ning Tianhe returned to take charge.

Thus, he was somewhat moved by this situation.

Firstly, he could check if any young, intact women in the Ning family had an extreme Yin body.

Secondly, he could also obtain the alchemy furnace used by the Divine Doctor Sun Simiao from the Ning family.

Lastly, he could establish a good relationship with a Gang Qi Realm expert.

With the threat of Paleaa Castle, it was beneficial for him to know as many experts as possible.

When he sought to settle accounts with Paleaa Castle, he could not only bring Zhao Chunqiu and Xia Zhaonan as his men but also some allies.

There was no doubt that Ning Tianhe, a Gang Qi Realm expert, could be one such ally.

Su Fan thought he would need to go to Hang City to treat Ning Zhengde.

But he quickly found out that the main branch of the Ning family was very clever.

They not only used the strategy of feigning one thing while doing another to trick the second branch.

They used another trick to deceive the second branch a second time.

Right now, Master Ning Zhengde was not in Hang City but had been transferred to Yang City.

Because in a desperate situation, who knows if the second branch would go so far as to directly harm Master Ning.

Transferring Master Ning to Yang City would naturally be safer.

After Su Fan agreed to treat Ning Zhengde, Ning Miaoyan said, "Divine Doctor Su, shall we start the treatment now?"

"My grandfather can go to the Eastern Medicine Company, or he can be treated at the Yin family."

Su Fan was surprised, "Master Ning is in Yang City?"

Ning Miaoyan nodded, "Yes."

Initially, they didn't think the second branch would be so deranged, or Ning Zhengde wouldn't have fallen for it.

After Ning Zhengde was attacked, they certainly wouldn't dare let him stay in Hang City, or there might be another incident.

The person currently in Hang City was just a substitute for Ning Zhengde.

Su Fan thought for a moment and said, "Let Master Ning go to the Eastern Medicine Company for treatment then."

Ning Miaoyan nodded, "Alright, I will arrange it now."

Although the second branch of the Ning family was well prepared, they ultimately made a mistake.

No matter how much they racked their brains, they wouldn't have thought that Ning Zhengde had secretly gone to Yang City.

Of course, the main branch couldn't be too proud either.

Because the person they were waiting for, Ning Tianhe, was already in the hands of the second branch.

Had it not been for the fact that he still had some value, Ning Tianhe might already be dead.

Unfortunately, not even the main branch knew about these things, let alone Su Fan.
