Chapter 50: Getting Involved, Controlling Ning Fengzhi, and Intercepting Ning Rongrong?
You smiled slightly, gesturing for Dugu Bo to sit down and have some tea, then faced the continent's number one support soul master alone.
"Sect Leader Ning, could we find a more private place so we can talk alone?"
Ning Fengzhi gave you a deep look, dismissed everyone around him, and even invited the two Douluo, Jian Gu and Dui, to leave the hall.
Then they led you into a secret room.
[And before you entered the secret chamber, in front of Ning Fengzhi and the others, you told Dugu Bo.]
If you don't come out within half an hour, consider you dead. What you do after that is entirely up to Dugu Bo.
Afterwards, you and Ning Fengzhi entered the secret room.
Then, let's get straight to the point.
This indicates that you are aware that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has been seeking an opportunity to evolve its martial soul into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
And you happen to have this opportunity. However, this opportunity can only be used by one person.
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi's breathing instantly became heavy.
The usually composed man completely disregarded his composure at this moment.
He immediately replied, "Tell me your requests. As long as it truly helps my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda evolve, I'll agree to anything."
But you shook your head in response.
"I have the opportunity, but I cannot give it to you."
"Firstly, this thing has age and qualification requirements."
"The younger the age, the better the evolutionary effect."
"Secondly, faced with an opportunity of this magnitude, I truly cannot trust Sect Master Ning."
"So even if I were to give this opportunity, I would only give it to your daughter, Ning Rongrong, the sect leader's daughter."
Ning Fengzhi was stunned, and a look of regret appeared on his face.
Then, he regained his refined and approachable demeanor and sat back down in his chair.
Why Rongrong?
You looked directly into Ning Fengzhi's eyes and spoke calmly.
"Because only by giving it to her can the needs of both of us be met simultaneously."
"I, Su Mu, have just turned eleven, and am a level fifty-five Soul King."
"And I'm almost 100% confident that I can break through to level 60 within the next year."
"And if that opportunity were used on Ning Rongrong, I would be almost 100% confident that it would allow her to successfully transform."
"But I can't just give you this opportunity for nothing!"
"I need to arrange a marriage with her after I've successfully transformed her."
"My martial soul is the phoenix. I wouldn't dare say my talent is unparalleled, but it's definitely unprecedented."
"Moreover, I am of commoner origin and have no family."
"Therefore, Sect Leader Ning, you don't need to worry about any network of interests behind me, or any schemes to seize your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's fortune."
"Furthermore, I can promise that if Sect Master Ning agrees, any child I have with your daughter who awakens the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul can take her surname, or you can personally raise her, Sect Master Ning, so that she can inherit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's leadership."
[Your words were simple and clear, and Ning Fengzhi listened very attentively.]
His fingers tapped unconsciously on the table.
After a moment, he looked up and said.
"Young friend Su, since you possess such talent and hold such an opportunity, I'm very curious, why do you insist on binding yourself to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"
"Don't tell me it's for Rongrong's sake. I won't believe it."
You spoke with a smile.
"Two points."
"First, I bear a secret that could overturn the entire continent. This secret cannot be protected by Senior Dugu alone."
"I need a stronger backer."
"If this collaboration can be finalized..."
"The combined combat power of the Sword and Bone Twin Douluos, coupled with Senior Dugu's catastrophic group-killing ability, and further enhanced by your unparalleled support skills."
"With this lineup, even if the Spirit Hall themselves came, they'd lose a couple of teeth."
"Secondly, there's the unique aspect of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"I bring you the future, and you shelter me from my present weakness."
"This has always been the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's guiding principle."
"And Sect Leader Ning has also seen my talent."
"At my current cultivation speed, I can't say for sure that I'll reach the level of a 99th-level Limit Douluo in the future."
"But if we're 70-80% sure, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
"Then there's the issue of potential hidden dangers."
"Although I said before that I didn't covet the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's assets, I doubt Sect Master Ning will believe me."
"Then let me put it more bluntly."
"If I could reach the level of a Limit Douluo at level ninety-nine."
"With my strength and a lifespan of at least five hundred years, I can personally create any power I desire!"
"Even if I don't go and create something new, I'm truly breaking my promise and trying to usurp someone else's place."
"But with Ning Rongrong around, plus the core base of your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School..."
"When we have children in the future, it will basically be my and Ning Rongrong's children who inherit all of this."
"And the worst-case scenario is no different from what I described before."
["So, Sect Leader Ning, do you really think this is a hidden danger?"]
Your words were simple and to the point, without any pretense or concealment.
"As for the second point, that's relatively simple."
"Sect Leader Ning, your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is wealthy, powerful, and well-connected."
"My teacher's name is Flander. You might not be familiar with his name, but he, along with Yu Xiaogang, the master of Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Liu Erlong, the illegitimate daughter of Yu Luomian, are known as the Golden Iron Triangle. You should have heard of this Sect Master Ning."
"And my teacher, Flander, is the flying horn of the golden triangle."
"Now, he's taken to teaching and has even privately founded a Soul Master Academy called Shrek in Soto City."
"However, due to his shortcomings in interpersonal skills and personality, that academy has not yet gained the Empire's recognition and remains a third-rate, unaccredited institution."
"I was born an orphan, and I received great kindness from him from a young age, which led me to embark on the path of a Soul Master."
"So I want to help him fulfill his dream of establishing a prestigious university."
"And in the present continent, the most obvious power capable of accomplishing this is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, led by Sect Master Ning."
"If this academy is successfully established, it will be a good thing for your sect."
"This will give him another avenue for talent recruitment in the future."
