Chapter 114: The True Orthodoxy of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Lies in Martial Souls, Shocking Qian Daoliu for a Thousand Years!
Three days later,
A travel-worn Ning Rongrong followed the spotless Zhu Zhuqing into Spirit City.
"Wow~ Spirit City is so big!"
"It feels even more magnificent than Heaven Dou City!"
At first, Ning Rongrong looked around excitedly.
But soon, as they got closer and closer to the Pope's Palace, visible at a glance, her smile gradually disappeared.
"Um… Zhuqing, where are we going?"
Ning Rongrong followed nervously.
"Didn't I already say to meet the Grand Worship?"
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at her with a faint smile.
She didn't know who had confidently said before that she feared no one.
"No way! Zhuqing, you're serious?"
Ning Rongrong's face fell. "You're not joking with me?"
"When have I ever joked with you?"
"Fine… we'll go then. You'll protect me, right?"
Ning Rongrong quietly hugged Zhu Zhuqing tighter.
"Depends on your performance~."
Zhu Zhuqing smiled coolly, calmly observing the lives around her.
Unlike other cities, in Spirit City, one could clearly feel the harmony between people.
She could feel the power of faith!
According to Bai Lu, if one wanted to create a god position, one needed the power of faith!
It was just that she didn't understand why relying on faith could lead to becoming a god.
Fortunately, Bai Lu did!
"The Pope's Palace lies ahead. No entry allowed! Please show your token."
Before the guard finished speaking, Zhu Zhuqing revealed a token.
"Greetings, Elder!"
The guard immediately stepped aside respectfully, looking at the girl with admiration.
'Elder???'
Ning Rongrong's eyes widened in shock.
No matter what kind of Elder Zhu Zhuqing was, being addressed like that meant extremely high status.
So in the end… she was the prey?!
She secretly glanced at the cool girl and hugged her arm even tighter.
As if holding on like this could secure her future.
The two walked through corridors and arrived at the Douluo Hall.
Inside the vast hall,
Qian Daoliu still stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the massive pure gold angel statue.
"Teacher, sorry to keep you waiting. I've returned!"
Zhu Zhuqing stepped forward respectfully.
"It's good that you returned safely."
Qian Daoliu slowly turned around, seeing the girl's clearly strengthened aura, his eyes filled with satisfaction.
He then looked at Ning Rongrong:
"And this is…?"
"Greetings, Grand Worship Grandpa. My name is Ning Rongrong, from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Ning Fengzhi is my father."
Ning Rongrong introduced herself sweetly.
"Ning Fengzhi's daughter?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Qian Daoliu's eyes.
That man has quite the nerve, letting his daughter come to Spirit City. Is he not taking Bibi Dong seriously?
He looked at Zhu Zhuqing:
"Xiao Qing, what's going on?"
"We met by chance on the road. We got along, so I brought her along."
Zhu Zhuqing summarized, then asked:
"Teacher, what do you think of Rongrong's talent?"
"Her aura is pure. Though there's the presence of external substances, her soul power isn't unstable. She's a girl with exceptional talent."
Qian Daoliu evaluated objectively after sensing briefly.
"Rongrong, release your martial soul."
Zhu Zhuqing gave Ning Rongrong a look.
"Nine treasures turn, Glazed Tile emerges!"
Ning Rongrong spun, and a dazzling Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul appeared in her hand.
"Nine treasures? Nine treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!
Qian Daoliu froze, then his calm eyes widened abruptly.
The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda shocked him no less than when Zhu Zhuqing first impressed him.
He forcefully suppressed the waves in his heart and asked:
"What exactly is going on?"
"Your disciple had a fortunate encounter and obtained an immortal herb. That herb successfully helped Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul to evolve into a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul."
Zhu Zhuqing said seriously, "I've spoken with Rongrong. She is willing to join Spirit Hall. What does the teacher think?"
"Is what Xiao Qing says true?"
"Yes! It's true, Grandpa!"
Ning Rongrong still spoke sweetly.
At this point, even if she wanted to regret it, she couldn't.
She might as well enjoy it!
"Good! Excellent!"
Qian Daoliu's hand tightened slightly.
He was a gentleman, not a fool, and certainly not insane!
His disciple had brought the little princess of a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect into Spirit Hall and even evolved the continent's strongest auxiliary martial soul.
How could he possibly hand her over or let her leave?
Moreover, with such a genius joining Spirit Hall, how is that any different from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect joining Spirit Hall?
The true orthodoxy of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect lies in martial souls!
If this news spread, Ning Fengzhi would beg overnight to have his entire sect join Spirit Hall!
"Like this, for now, you will be designated as a reserve Saintess and enjoy Saintess treatment."
Qian Daoliu paced for a while before promising:
"Once a suitable identity is arranged, you will be reallocated."
"Thank you, Grandpa!"
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong smiled even sweeter.
"Xiao Qing, how were your gains from this hunting trip?"
Qian Daoliu looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a warm smile, like a grandfather looking at his granddaughter.
"Teacher, I gained greatly this time. I've now broken through to Rank 60."
Zhu Zhuqing revealed a faint smile.
"Mm, good that you broke through…"
Qian Daoliu nodded, then suddenly froze:
"Wait, what rank did you say you reached?"
"Rank 60."
"How is that possible…"
Qian Daoliu stood stunned.
If he remembered correctly, Zhu Zhuqing had only been at Rank 50 when she went out hunting.
It hadn't been long, yet she was already ready to hunt again.
This leveling speed… even a hundred-thousand-year… no!
Even a transformed million-year soul beast wouldn't be this outrageous!
"What kind of opportunity did you encounter to rise ten levels in one go?"
Qian Daoliu felt his throat dry but couldn't help asking.
"I happened to encounter a transformed hundred-thousand-year soul beast and had her sacrifice to me. Then I had some additional opportunities, which brought me to Rank 60."
"Transformed hundred-thousand-year soul beast?"
Qian Daoliu froze.
In recent years, hundred-thousand-year soul beasts were extremely rare.
Bibi Dong had spent enormous resources to obtain only a few hundred-thousand-year soul rings.
Yet Zhu Zhuqing went out once and came back with one?
And as her fifth soul ring?!
"Quick! Release your soul rings for me to see!"
"Hell Spirit Cat, possess!"
Zhu Zhuqing opened and closed her eyes, instantly transforming into a Hell Spirit Cat girl.
At her feet, the blood-red fifth soul ring shone, radiating the pressure of a hundred-thousand-year soul ring…
"It really is a hundred-thousand-year soul ring…"
Qian Daoliu stared at it, murmuring:
"Heaven truly favors Spirit Hall…"
Before he could fully process it, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly spoke:
"Teacher, I still have some matters to inform you of. I hope you won't be too shocked."
"What else?"
"Say it all at once. Your teacher can handle it."
Qian Daoliu took a breath, regaining his composed demeanor.
One minute later…
"What did you say?!"
Even Qian Daoliu couldn't maintain his composure anymore.
"You're telling me you once stole the wife of the Clear Sky Douluo, the Blue Silver Emperor, and absorbed a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor soul bone?"
"You're telling me that after breaking through, you challenged and defeated Dugu Bo and even took his condensed pill bead?"
"And you're telling me that on your way back, you encountered Tang Hao seeking revenge, severely injured him, forced him to cut off one arm, and drove him away?!"
The girl's words shocked Qian Daoliu for a thousand years!
He thought that back then, even he, Tang Chen, and Bo Saixi combined weren't this strong!
Girl, are you trying to defy the heavens?!
