They turned around and saw the man, but didn’t move because Gu Ning stood still.
Cultivators had good sight, but Gu Ning had better sight than them, so he didn’t see her until he was only five meters away from her. “It’s you?”
He recognized Gu Ning with a simple glance, because he had done research about Gu Ning after the accident at the airport in City B. In fact, he admired Gu Ning’s abilities and achievements, because she was very outstanding among her peers. Both the Tang family and the Leng family supported her, and no one dared to mess with her.
However, he had a strange feeling when he thought of Leng Shaoting.
Actually, he thought that Leng Shaoting might be the one that had magical power, but he ran into Gu Ning twice and the Yin disappeared all of a sudden when she was here too. So now he thought that it was more likely that Gu Ning had the magical power.
Gu Ning wasn’t surprised that this cultivator was able to recognize her, because she was very famous now, and there was a lot of news about her on the Internet.
Many strangers knew her name as well.
“Do you know me?” Gu Ning still asked.
“Sure, I saw a lot of news about you on the Internet; you’re quite unbelievable,” the cultivator said with sincerity.
“Thanks for your compliment,” Gu Ning said.
“Oh, it’s very late now. What are you doing here?” asked the man curiously. He knew that Gu Ning came here for a reason.
Gu Ning said, “I know this land has a bad reputation, but I want to build a five-star hotel here. I don’t believe in ghosts and monsters, but I heard that they often come out at night, so we wanted to have a look.”
She didn’t tell the cultivator her real thoughts, because she didn’t trust him right now.
Gu Ning looked honest, so the cultivator believed her. He knew that Gu Ning was a businesswoman, so it was very normal for her to want to buy this land and build a five-star hotel here.
Gu Ning understood that they were still strangers now, and it was impossible for them to trust each other within a short time.
Both of them were smart people, and they knew that people acted when they met for the first time.
“Did you see it?” asked the man again.
“Unfortunately no, maybe it’s already gone,” Gu Ning said. “May I know why you’re here too?”
“I come here for the same reason.” The man smiled. “To be honest with you, my grandfather is a member of Mao Shan School, and he knows some Mao Shan skills. I learned some when I was a kid, but I’ve never seen a ghost before although I’ve heard a lot of stories about ghosts.”
Actually, that was a total lie, but even though the man lied, Gu Ning wouldn’t point it out and pretended that she accepted his explanation. “Oh, sounds interesting!”
“Well, unfortunately Mao Shan School is decaying, and not many people are aware of it now,” the man said, feeling sorry about it.
Although it was a lie that his grandfather was a member of Mao Shan School, he indeed felt sorry for its decay, because he had a special relationship with it.
“Right.” Gu Ning nodded. She stayed silent for a while, then asked him again, “May I know your name?”
Normally Gu Ning wouldn’t ask for a stranger’s name, but this man was a cultivator, and she needed to know more about him in order to learn more information about the cultivation world.
Moreover, Leng Shaoting’s mother was a member of the cultivation world too.
“My name’s Jing Jining. I’m much older than you, so you can call me Uncle Jing if you don’t mind,” Jing Jining said.
Jing Jining was happy to make friends with Gu Ning because he had a good impression of her and wanted to figure out whether she had something to do with magical power.
Gu Ning aroused his curiosity.
