C3337 War Orphans
Ning Antong said as she pushed the door open.
Lu Yu looked at the courtyard in front of him, which looked like a small farm yard, and couldn't help but feel curious.
Along the way, he had already found out about Ning Antong's identity. She was a bronze constables from the Six Fans Gate.
And her father was one of the top ten Copper Catchers in Xiliang City, Ning Zhao!
Ning Zhao had personally sent countless pirates and evil cultivators to prison. In the underground forces of Xiliang City, whenever people mentioned Ning Zhao's name, their faces would pale.
Gold medallions were already very high ranking in the torture chamber of Xiliang City. Although they didn't have the status of official, they had enough authority and could enjoy the blessing of the heavenly dynasty.
The entire Xiliang City was magnificent and grand. Being able to become one of the top ten gold-medal constables was enough to show Ning Zhao's strength.
With such a status, he shouldn't lack money to spend.
Seemingly seeing the doubt in Lu Yu's eyes, Ning Antong said, "My father was born in the army and has many comrades in the army."
"After the war with Tang Tian, there were people dying one after another at the front line. Some children's parents died on the battlefield, and they became orphans. Some of the talented ones were taken away by their families or other forces. However, those children who did not have talent could only watch helplessly as their family property was taken away. They became homeless orphans."
"My father was not used to it, so he used his salary to see an ancestral hall in Xiliang City. He specially adopted homeless orphans. He also asked Sir to teach these children how to read and write. As for whether or not they can cultivate, that will depend on their luck."
Ning Antong sighed and did not continue.
Those who could be taken in as orphans were obviously children who did not have any aptitude for cultivation.
Even those cultivator sects who wanted to recruit them would not take in these children.
Many people only saw the beauty of this world, but they overlooked the fact that there were always some people living in dark corners.
To the people of cultivation cities, mortals were like ants, the type that could be crushed at any time.
The children who did not have the potential to cultivate could only wait for them to die painfully in a corner where no one was paying attention.
"No wonder. When I first saw you, I realized that you were different from the others." Lu Yu muttered.
He looked at Ning Antong again and finally noticed something different.
When he first met Ning Antong and the others in the forest, he stopped because of the unique aura emitted by Ning Antong.
He had not felt anything before, but now that he thought about it, he immediately understood.
This was the Power of Faith.
Countless beliefs gathered together to form this power.
Generally speaking, only gods possessed such a power of faith.
Countless believers chanted the name of the god, begging for his blessing. Over time, such power would appear around the god.
For the homeless children, Ning Antong might be like the gods, able to save them from the Sea of Misery.
Ning Antong only thought that she was doing good deeds. However, such virtues had formed around her.
With the blessings, even if she encountered a disaster, she would be able to turn bad luck into good fortune.
This time, Ning Antong was already facing a fatal disaster. However, perhaps it was because of the power of virtue that allowed her to meet Lu Yu, kill the approaching Demonic Beast, and turn bad luck into good luck.
