Chapter 35 part1

“What did you just say? Everything at the Cheng’s are mythicalbecause of the spiritual well?” Old Man Ning sprang up in disbelief.

A solemn-looking Ko Yang nodded and replied earnestly, “Master,everything Ko Yang said was true. I saw the spiritual well with my own eyes andso had the spiritual water from the well. It is, indeed, spiritual water!”

“No wonder! Spiritual water huh? What a lucky family to have aspiritual well? No wonder their farm animals all have mythical properties,because they were all raised with water from this well. It all make sense!”

Ko Yang nodded, “Yes, Master. I have further surveillant WillowVillage. Nobody else has such a well other than the Cheng’s.”

“Hmm, if only we can buy the piece of land the Cheng’s are on!” OldMan Ning had greedy thoughts. After all, it was a priceless spiritual well theyare talking about!

Hearing those words, Ko Yang frowned and said, “Master, Ko Yangthinks that might be tricky. I have asked around and found out that a whileback the land where the Cheng’s reside had been transferred to under theirname. It won’t be an easy task to buy it as I think the Cheng’s are no ordinarypeople!”

“Not ordinary!” Old Man Ning was a bit surprised by that.

“Yes, not ordinary!” said Ko Yang with a solemn look, “I couldsense that Mr. Cheng is already a level 2 martial master. Even though martialmaster is not ranked at the very top in Dafeng, but they are still very wellrespected.”

“I see!” Upon hearing this, Old Man Ning’s heart sank a bit. Thismatter wasn’t as simple as he had hoped. The Ning’s hadn’t hired any skilledmartial artists on their payroll. Pissing off some martial master level ofmartial artist would not play out well for them.

Plus, if the Cheng’s are skilled martial master, they might havethe backing of other powerful organizations. If they attract more powerful enemies,the Ning’s might be annihilated.”\nThat being said, to say he didn’t want the mythical animals andspiritual well would be a lie. After the almost half-month long search, walkingaway empty handed would be a hard pill to swallow.

“Ko Yang, did you tell them that we need their mythical animals?”Asked Old Man Ning after a moment of pondering.

Ko Yang let out a bitter smile, the thoughtful look of Ms. Chengpopped up inside his head, “Master, I was going to place the order with them,but Ms. Cheng seemed reluctant and I didn’t want to push the issue. So Idecided to come back and report to you first!”

“Oh….” Old Man Ning was a bit surprised but suddenly his eyesflashed, “How old is this maiden Cheng? How does she look?”

“To reply Master, I gather Ms. Cheng to be around 15 or 16. Notthe most beautiful of all women but she is fair. What’s worth mentioning is herelegance that suggest a noble origin, she didn’t seem like your common villagegirl.”

Ko Yang thought of the wise Ms. Cheng in a very positive light andcontinued, “Master, it might looked like her father was the one in charge atthe Cheng’s, but Ms. Cheng’s words definitely carry some weight. She was theone that stopped the process of a contract being established.”

“It does sound like she is quite a character!” The smile on OldMan Ning’s face thickened, “Ko Yang, what do you think about Zong’er?”

“Young master?” Ko Yang paused for a moment, he couldn’t quitefigure out what his master was suggesting.
