Chapter 759 Ning Gong Recruits Apprentices
The senior brother arrived even later and didn't have time to notice the danger there.

Thus, in his repeated exchanges with Song Wanning, he gradually moved closer to the dangerous dividing line.

On the shore, the junior brother also didn't notice anything unusual. He just watched with boredom, thinking to himself that Song Wanning was really too weak. She had no power to fight back at all and was being beaten back by her senior brother.

It probably won't be long before it's completely taken down.

However, just as he was careless, his senior brother's figure landed in the very center, and then suddenly he was sucked into it out of thin air.

The junior brother only saw his senior brother's eyes filled with fear and confusion before he disappeared completely in the next second.

"Senior brother?!?"

The junior brother was shocked and looked at the bottom of the river in disbelief, not understanding how his senior brother had disappeared.

But Song Wanning saw it clearly.

There were obvious signs of spatial distortion at that dividing line just now; that familiar feeling was definitely there.

Song Wanning frowned and swam towards the dividing line without thinking.

The dividing line is merely a passageway to the next space; as long as it doesn't involve murder and dismemberment, it's fine.

Watching helplessly as the two disappeared at the dividing line, the junior brother's expression suddenly became extremely serious.

He was originally worried about his senior brother's life or death, but now that he saw Song Wanning go in on her own initiative, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

Could there be some special opportunity there?
"Never mind, what if I miss this opportunity? I'd regret it to death!"

The junior brother gritted his teeth, having already made up his mind.

If his senior brother gains an opportunity because of this, while he misses it, he will surely regret it for the rest of his life.

So, fight for it!

With the idea that fortune favors the bold, the junior brother jumped into the water with a splash and swam towards that spot.

The three people, along with some small fish, disappeared.

...

"Boom-"

Song Wanning fell high into the air, landing on the ground with a heavy thud.

With all her magical power gone, she immediately stood up, rubbed her sore bottom, and looked around.

Contrary to her expectations, she found herself on a wide road lined with many plants.

At this time, she had also lost her immortal power, and the little ones had lost contact with her.

As Song Wanning was pondering, a carriage sped towards them.

Seeing her standing in the middle of the road, the coachman raised his whip and lashed it at her.

"Who's blocking the way? Get out of the way at once!!"

"If you delay my young master from becoming Ning Gong's apprentice, I'll beat you to death!"

The coachman was extremely arrogant, and he used ninety percent of his strength to raise the whip.

Seeing that the whip was about to strike her, Song Wanning's expression changed, and she immediately retreated backward, then reached out and grabbed the whip tightly.

He intended to overturn the person and the car together, but who knew that the next moment he was whipped away and fell heavily onto a rock next to him.

"hiss--"

She gasped in pain, and when she looked up again, the coachman had already driven the horse away quickly, leaving only his anxious back and the endless yellow sand.

Song Wanning winced in pain and struggled to her feet, only to discover that her clothes and hands had changed.

But now that she couldn't see inside herself, she could only look at her reflection in a small pond, and that's when she realized she had become someone else.

She pursed her lips. No wonder she couldn't even handle a coachman. Right now, she was just an ordinary person, the kind who couldn't even kill a chicken.

A long gash had been cut on her palm by the whip, and the pain made her brow twitch.

Song Wanning didn't pay any attention and instead chased after them into the city.

The city of mortals looked rather dilapidated, but the city gate was bustling with activity. All sorts of carriages and fine horses were parked at the city gate, making the already small area completely crowded.

Besides, many people were queuing at the gate to enter the city, all looking excited and eager to rush in immediately.

The coachman from earlier was leading a young master towards the city.

Song Wanning didn't join the queue; instead, she stood at the very back, listening intently to gather information.

"Why do you think Master Ning suddenly took on an apprentice this time?"

"That's right, and it doesn't even have to be from a particular country. As long as you can meet his requirements, you can be accepted as his disciple!"

"Hiss, you don't know this, I heard before that Engineer Ning was poisoned and wouldn't live much longer!"

"real or fake?"

"Of course it's true. My fellow villager's sister's brother's brother's aunt lives in Ning Gong's residence."

"Hiss, if that's really the case, then it's truly a case of the heavens being jealous of talent. Ning Gong, as the most skilled swordsmith in our Lang Kingdom, is dying so young..."

"Who says it isn't?"

The people queuing to enter the city chatted in twos and threes, their eyes filled with regret.

Song Wanning felt quite sorry to hear this. If what they said was true, then it was indeed a case of heaven being jealous of talent.

Soon, Song Wanning reached the entrance. After rummaging through her pockets for a while, she finally found two copper coins and paid the entrance fee.

Once inside the city, the cries of vendors could be heard everywhere.

The streets were bustling with people, shoulder to shoulder, creating a lively atmosphere.

Song Wanning moved among them without attracting anyone's attention.

After making inquiries from various sources, she arrived outside the Ning residence.

"You're here to learn sword making too?"

Before she could even step inside, Song Wanning was stopped by the guards.

Not only was his attitude very contemptuous, but he also looked Song Wanning up and down.

In the mundane world, women do not have a high status; they can only enjoy higher rights because of the status of their maternal or paternal families.

Unlike the cultivation world, where strength determines everything and there is no distinction between men and women.

Song Wanning was not used to this situation, and her face turned cold.

"What, is it a rule that women can't learn swordsmanship?"

If the other party isn't polite, she doesn't need to be polite either.

"Oh, he's got a real problem!"

The guard chuckled at Song Wanning's tone and raised his arm to slap her when a figure suddenly appeared behind him, instantly dimming the surroundings.

The man was dressed in all black, yet he wore a fur coat on such a hot day, which looked rather strange.

But a group of servants followed him respectfully.

"So it's Young Master Xue! Please come in!"

The guards have completely changed their demeanor; they're practically kneeling to welcome them.

Song Wanning glanced at him indifferently, then turned and went straight into the mansion.

The guards wanted to stop her, but seeing Young Master Xue enter, they didn't say anything more.

Besides, Engineer Ning never said that women couldn't participate.

Once one woman entered the room, many other women who were interested started clamoring to join in.

In the end, even Ning Gong was alerted, and he reprimanded the guards before letting in all those who were willing to participate.

Meanwhile, Song Wanning was already wandering around the mansion.

Because she discovered that this mortal mansion was actually set up with a celestial array imbued with divine power.
