"Holy Son, are we just leaving? Ning Fengzhi didn't agree to our terms, yet you just gave away the Beautiful Silk Tulip like that."
Dugu Bo's expression was complex, but he still couldn't help but ask.
"Haha, Ning Fengzhi isn't the type to take such small advantages. But if he really did pocket the Beautiful Silk Tulip, I wouldn't mind. Nowadays, I can cultivate an Immortal Herb in a week, and one being taken by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect isn't really a loss."
Kai smiled slightly: "It's just the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect; they can't cause too much of a stir."
"I still think Ning Rongrong has a thing for you, Holy Son. I think if you win her over, it'll be more effective than anything else," Dugu Bo said with a mischievous grin.
"Oh? How about you, Old Poison, let your precious Granddaughter join the Spirit Hall? I happen to have an Immortal Herb that can improve her talent. And if she joins the Spirit Hall Team, isn't that much better than that Heaven Dou Royal Team?"
Kai countered.
"Hahaha, I actually had that exact thought. I've already joined the Spirit Hall, so it's a bit unreasonable for Yanyan to stay in the Heaven Dou Royal Team. However, everything still depends on her opinion."
Dugu Bo shook his head: "She's my most precious Granddaughter, so I must listen to her opinion."
"That's true."
Kai nodded... Heaven Dou City, Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Kai arrived here with Dugu Bo. Soon after, a young girl with unique pupils walked over with Dugu Bo. Kai noticed her pupils, which resembled those of a venomous snake. This unique pupil shape was precisely because Dugu Yan was also affected by toxins.
"Grandpa, why did you suddenly join the Spirit Hall? Isn't the Heaven Dou Empire good?"
Dugu Yan asked, walking beside Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo's face was filled with doting affection. No matter how much Dugu Yan complained, he just kept smiling.
"Hehe, you'll know when you meet the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall. Yanyan, I think you should also join the Spirit Hall. At least this way, Grandpa can protect you well."
Dugu Yan snorted: "I don't want to! How is the Heaven Dou Royal Academy inferior to the Spirit Hall? Grandpa, I still want to be with Tianheng, so please don't try to persuade me."
The two discussed, completely oblivious to Kai nearby.
"I say, you two, why don't you find another place to display your grandparent-Granddaughter affection?"
Kai was a bit helpless.
"Hahaha, Yanyan, let me introduce you. Kai is the current Holy Son of the Spirit Hall. He's only twelve years old this year, and he's already a Level forty-eight Soul Ancestor."
Dugu Bo said to his Granddaughter.
"Twelve years old, Level forty-eight? That's impossible."
Dugu Yan shook her head.
How could there be such a Monster?
"Would Grandpa lie to you? I personally saw Kai repel a powerful expert much higher in Level than him."
Dugu Bo said.
Kai, feeling helpless, left alone. It seemed Dugu Yan wasn't very keen on talking to him, and he was too lazy to speak to her... [Chen Xin, the one who pursues the Dao of the sword his entire life, truly lives up to his name. Fighting him, I couldn't gain much of an advantage. In fact, due to the significant Level difference, the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass Art no longer possessed its previous terrifying power.]
[However, if I reach the Spirit Emperor Level, I'll probably have the qualifications to fight him head-on. With the current power of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass Art, it's enough to severely injure a Soul Saint expert. After all, the Level gap in this world isn't too large; a sufficient number of Soul Saints can even hold back a Titled Douluo. There isn't too much pressure in fighting above one's Level.]
Everyone looking at the diary showed speechless expressions.
Big brother, you're only a Soul Ancestor. Aren't you satisfied with being able to defeat a Soul Saint?
You've even gone to challenge a Titled Douluo to a duel?!
Can you please leave a way out for others?
[Ning Fengzhi is indeed not so easy to recruit. If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cannot be recruited, they might even become opponents in the future. By then, I won't be giving them any good looks.]
[Anyway, fate is like this. Even if I don't interfere, if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect supports Tang San later, it will be destroyed. Most of its Disciples will die or be injured, and Chen Xin will break through to Level ninety-seven with a severed arm to repel the enemy, only to have his sword broken and bones shattered in the end. It's truly tragic!]
Ning Rongrong looked at the words in the diary, her expression complex, lost in thought.
"I absolutely cannot let such a thing happen! I must find a way to save Grandpa Sword and Bone Grandpa, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
Ning Rongrong suddenly stood up, then found Ning Fengzhi and said: "Father, let me try that Beautiful Silk Tulip."
"Rongrong, we still don't know the effects of this Beautiful Silk Tulip. If you try it rashly, I'm afraid..."
Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Bone Douluo exchanged glances, all seeing the worry in each other's eyes.
"I trust Kai."
Ning Rongrong nodded seriously.
"This girl, I don't know who she got this stubborn temper from..."
Ning Fengzhi shook his head helplessly.
He looked at the two Titled Douluo beside him and asked: "What are your opinions?"
"Hehe, Fengzhi, we're all with you, don't you know that?" Bone Douluo said with a smile.
"That Kai kid is quite to our liking. Some things the Spirit Hall did in the past have nothing to do with him. If he can truly take charge of the Spirit Hall, standing with him might not be a bad choice," Chen Xin agreed, nodding.
Bone Douluo's tone suddenly shifted, however, filled with a cold killing intent.
"But if the Spirit Hall forces us to do things against our will, even if it means a mutually destructive fight, we'll let them know that my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is not to be trifled with."
Ning Fengzhi nodded: "I trust what that Kai kid said. As he said, the Continent is in turmoil, and no one can remain aloof. Perhaps by standing with him early, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can also escape disaster."
"If he grows up, there will probably be no one on this Continent who can be his opponent."
Then, he looked at Ning Rongrong again: "Rongrong, in that case, you can take this Beautiful Silk Tulip. If there are any problems, your Grandpa Sword and Bone Grandpa can also help you."
"Also, in the future, try to interact with Kai as much as possible. You two grew up together, and I see Kai's attitude towards you is very good. You must seize this opportunity well."

... [I wonder how that Tang San kid is doing. It's about time to return to Spirit City. Since that's the case, I'll go bully Tang San again. If Tang Hao appears now, I'm not afraid of him either. His injuries worsened last time; he might already be dead in some corner by now.]
