Facing Ning Jiufan's questions and concerns, Ning Zhuo immediately put on a bitter expression.
He spoke in a grievance-filled tone, "Ancestor, you misunderstand me so much!"
"Ever since I established the branch family, ventured far from home, and faced numerous adventures, it's all been for the sake of the family."
"The business of Yugang Mountain was painstakingly secured by me through exhaustive efforts, maneuvering on all fronts, and enduring much hardship before finally acquiring it."
"Even though I've traveled far from home, I've never forgotten the family, nor my duty as the branch family clan leader."
Ning Jiufan couldn't help but nod slightly.
*Actions speak louder than words!*
Ning Jiufan had seen for himself how the Ning branch in Fire Persimmon Immortal City managed the Jade Dark Steel business with great zeal, so much so that many members of the main line were envious and made many sour remarks.
