Chapter 260: Ning Rongrong: Your Great-Aunt Is Your Ancestor
Above the clouds of the God Realm,
A handsome man dressed in blue, with long azure hair cascading down his back, gazed at the Douluo Continent below. The corners of his lips slowly curled upward.
"Child of Destiny, you will never escape the palm of my hand."
This blue-haired man was none other than Tang San, the Sea God and one of the Five Great God Kings of the God Realm.
However, in the next instant, the entire Douluo Continent became shrouded in a layer of mist.
Even he could no longer observe what was happening below.
"What's going on? Could it be the Plane Consciousness interfering with me again?"
"Damn Plane Consciousness. Once I put a leash on Child of Destiny, you'll be next!"
Tang San clenched his fists, his heart filled with dissatisfaction toward the Douluo Continent's Plane Consciousness.
It should have dissipated long ago, yet it still dared to interfere with the actions of this great God King.
It truly deserved death!
Just as he was circulating divine power in an attempt to see through the mist,
A majestic voice carrying the aura of destruction rang beside his ear.
"Sea God, what are you doing now?"
It was the voice of the God of Destruction.
Ever since Tang San entered the God Realm, the God of Destruction had never gotten along with him.
Most of the time, the God of Destruction kept his attention fixed on Tang San.
His sole purpose was to catch Tang San making underhanded moves so he could report him to the God Realm Committee.
"Destruction, something unusual has happened on the Douluo Continent. I need to investigate it."
Even after being caught, Tang San remained stubborn, refusing to admit that he wanted to interfere with the lower realm.
"Heh."
"Tang San, I now suspect that you've violated the God Realm's regulations by wantonly interfering with the lower realm."
"Come with me to the God Realm Committee."
As those words fell, the God of Destruction spoke no further.
A moment later, Tang San looked unwillingly toward the mist-covered Douluo Continent before raising his eyes toward the Destruction Temple.
"Destruction... you truly deserve death!"
"Once I tame the Child of Destiny and strengthen my own forces, I'll settle things with you properly!"
Tang San gritted his teeth, every word filled with resentment and fury toward the God of Destruction.
Time and again, he had been obstructed.
If he didn't eliminate the evil deity known as the God of Destruction, then he wouldn't be the pure and noble God King Tang.
After taking one last glance below, Tang San headed toward the God Realm Committee.
Long before this, he had already made sufficient preparations on the Douluo Continent.
The Child of Destiny would ultimately fall into his hands.
The Plane Consciousness's final resistance was nothing more than the last struggle of a cornered beast.
...
At the foot of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect,
Ning Rongrong arrived.
The two guards stationed at the mountain gate immediately stepped forward upon seeing a young girl boldly approach.
They intended to drive away this ignorant visitor.
However, upon seeing Ning Rongrong, both of them felt a strange sense of familiarity.
It was as though they had seen her somewhere before.
After thinking for quite a while,
Neither of them could remember where.
"This is the territory of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Unauthorized people are forbidden from entering."
"Little sister, please leave immediately. Otherwise, we'll have no choice but to escort you away."
The two guards spoke sternly.
"I've come here on important business."
"Hurry up and call your Sect Master and Elders to come receive me."
"Don't waste my time."
Ning Rongrong waved her hand dismissively, paying no attention to the guards' warning.
Seeing her act so arrogantly, the two guards frowned deeply, anger gradually rising within them.
"The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cannot be insulted."
"If you continue speaking so recklessly, don't blame us for being impolite."
The guards issued a final warning.
Although Ning Rongrong appeared to be nothing more than an ignorant young girl,
Anyone who insulted the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would receive no mercy.
"Impolite?"
"Your great-aunt is the ancestor of your entire Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and you dare threaten me?"
As soon as the words left her mouth,
Ning Rongrong extended a hand.
The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul appeared in her palm.
"Take a good look."
"Do you recognize this martial soul?"
"Hurry up and notify your Sect Master to come receive me."
Ning Rongrong spoke with complete confidence.
The moment the two guards saw the nine-story pagoda in her hand, they looked carefully at her appearance,
Their hearts trembled violently.
Wasn't she...
The spitting image of Ancestor Rongrong's statue standing at the center of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?
"Could it be..."
"Could this be a descendant of Ancestor Rongrong descending upon the Douluo Continent?"
The same thought surfaced in both guards' minds.
Legends of the gods were known to every soul master on today's Douluo Continent.
Realizing this,
Their expressions immediately became respectful.
"Y-Yes!"
"We'll report to the Sect Master immediately."
"Please forgive our earlier disrespect, Divine Maiden."
The two guards hurriedly apologized, terrified that Ning Rongrong might punish them.
"Don't worry."
"I'm not that petty."
"Go inform your Sect Master."
The two guards immediately rushed toward the sect's main hall to report the matter to the current Sect Master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
...
Main Hall of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
"Xiao Tian, Xiao Feng."
"During your time at Shrek Academy, your most important task is to become acquainted with the academy's geniuses."
"But don't neglect your own cultivation..."
The current Sect Master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Xiuyuan, earnestly instructed his daughter Ning Tian and the sect's young genius Wu Feng.
Standing beside Ning Xiuyuan was an elderly man with a kind appearance.
He was the sect's guardian Titled Douluo, the Red Dragon Douluo, as well as Wu Feng's grandfather.
"Xiao Feng."
"You must also protect Xiao Tian."
"Don't let anyone bully her at Shrek Academy. Understood?"
The Red Dragon Douluo also reminded his granddaughter.
"Grandpa, I'll definitely protect Xiao Tian."
"No one is allowed to bully her!"
Wu Feng puffed out her chest, her eyes filled with determination.
At that moment,
A guard entered the hall with urgent news.
After listening, Ning Xiuyuan frowned, his expression becoming extremely serious.
"Is this true?"
Hearing the question, the guard trembled and quickly explained,
"Sect Master, both gate guards witnessed it with their own eyes."
"They wouldn't mistake Ancestor Rongrong's appearance or her martial soul."
After hearing those words,
Ning Xiuyuan's eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.
Yet there was also a trace of nervousness and concern.
If what he suspected was true,
Then another god would be born from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in this era.
But what worried him most was that another faction had deliberately staged this to toy with their sect.
"Xiuyuan."
"What happened to make you lose your composure like this?"
The Red Dragon Douluo finally spoke.
In all these years,
He had never seen Ning Xiuyuan display such an expression.
"Uncle Wu."
"A major event has occurred."
"But we need to verify it first."
"Come with me."
Hearing Ning Xiuyuan's words,
The Red Dragon Douluo, Ning Tian, and Wu Feng were all bewildered.
Nevertheless, they followed him without hesitation.
...
At the foot of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect,
"They actually made your great-aunt wait this long."
"What an unfilial bunch of descendants."
By now, Ning Rongrong had completely immersed herself in her role.
Soon,
The splendidly dressed Ning Xiuyuan and the other three entered her field of vision.
The instant the Red Dragon Douluo, Ning Tian, and Wu Feng saw Ning Rongrong's appearance,
All three were stunned.
"This is..."
"Ancestor?"
