Ning Fengzhi nodded lightly and didn't pay much attention to Grandmaster.
His mood was already sour, and he assumed that now that Grandmaster knew his identity, the man was trying to curry favor.
Grandmaster continued, "My name is Yu Xiaogang, known as Grandmaster. I'm a teacher at Shrek Academy."
Ning Fengzhi paused, then turned to look at him.
"Shrek Academy?"
Grandmaster smiled. "That's right. I didn't expect Sect Master Ning to have heard of our academy."
Ning Fengzhi's expression softened into a smile.
"Of course I've heard of it. My unfilial daughter, Ning Rongrong, is studying there. With her spoiled temper, she hasn't caused you too much trouble, has she?"
After learning that Grandmaster was a teacher at Shrek Academy, Ning Fengzhi's attitude immediately became much friendlier.
At the same time, he was inwardly surprised. This man was actually Yu Xiaogang—the so-called "Grandmaster" mocked by many in the spirit master world.
Others might call him a fraud, but Ning Fengzhi never thought so.
Back then, the Golden Iron Triangle had shaken the entire spirit master world. Their fame came from a three-person martial soul fusion skill—something unprecedented in history. Ning Fengzhi believed that achievement was inseparable from Grandmaster's theories.
It was a pity that when he had wanted to meet Grandmaster back then, the man had suddenly disappeared.
Who would have thought he'd end up teaching at Shrek Academy?
Ning Fengzhi immediately adopted a respectful attitude.
Grandmaster smiled and said, "Rongrong does have a mischievous side, but she's stubborn and unwilling to lose. She completed every training task I assigned."
Ning Fengzhi laughed. "That sounds like her."
"But…" Grandmaster sighed, "she left Shrek Academy a few days ago. Hasn't she returned home yet?"
Ning Fengzhi froze.
"What do you mean? Why would she leave Shrek Academy?"
Grandmaster replied, "It has to do with that Ao Tian. When he was still at Shrek Academy, Rongrong was very close to him. Some time ago, when Shrek relocated to Heaven Dou City, Ao Tian withdrew from the academy—and Rongrong left with him."
Ning Fengzhi abruptly stood up, about to go find Ao Tian and demand an explanation.
Ao Tian's behavior earlier had all been seen by him—spending ten million gold soul coins to buy a female slave, then rushing off the moment he won the auction, eager to do that.
Ning Fengzhi didn't dare imagine what kind of treatment his daughter might suffer if she stayed beside such a beast.
His daughter was beautiful as a flower, her temperament rare and refined. What man wouldn't desire her—especially someone so lust-driven?
The thought of his precious daughter being sullied by such a man made his heart ache violently, his breathing turning ragged.
"Where are you going, Sect Master Ning?" Grandmaster asked.
"I'm going to find that Ao Tian and ask where Rongrong is! If he dares do anything worse than beasts to her, I'll cut him to pieces!" Ning Fengzhi said coldly.
He was usually calm and refined, never shaken by storms—but when it came to his daughter's purity, he could no longer remain composed.
Grandmaster quickly stopped him.
"Sect Master Ning, you can't rush this. Please hear me out first."
Ning Fengzhi halted. "Why?"
Grandmaster said, "After Ao Tian left Shrek Academy, he injured my disciple Tang San. We've been searching the city for him but haven't been able to find where he's staying. If you confront him directly now, he may become wary and deliberately hide."
"How can I feel at ease letting Rongrong stay with someone like that?" Ning Fengzhi said through clenched teeth.
"If you act rashly, he may not tell you anything about Rongrong," Grandmaster replied.
"Instead, we should wait until he leaves, secretly follow him, identify his base, and then bring people to rescue Rongrong."
Ning Fengzhi considered for a moment, then nodded and sat back down.
Grandmaster was right. He hadn't brought any top experts with him this time—startling the snake would be unwise.
Tang San and Grandmaster exchanged a glance, both letting out a quiet sigh of relief.
They didn't want Ning Fengzhi leaving now. If he left and the hidden weapons came up for auction afterward, their plan would completely fall apart.
They needed Ning Fengzhi to personally witness the power of the hidden weapons before discussing cooperation.
Although Ning Fengzhi had sat back down, his fists remained tightly clenched, revealing how turbulent his emotions were.
Images of his daughter's smile, of her acting spoiled at his side, flashed through his mind again and again, twisting his heart in pain.
He swore to himself—if Ao Tian had truly harmed his daughter, he would make him pay the price.
Ao Tian followed three burly guards backstage, personally watching as they carried the iron cage covered in red cloth into a room and locked the door.
He went to pay, tossed out ten million gold soul coins, took the key, and entered the room.
The room was fully furnished, with a bed, a sofa, and everything else one might need.
The iron cage sat right in the center.
Ao Tian walked straight over and lifted the red cloth.
The catgirl raised her head, staring at him stubbornly, despair filling her eyes.
Though the man before her was handsome and had spent ten million to buy her, she didn't want to be violated.
Ao Tian sized her up. Her full figure was no worse than Zhu Zhuqing's, and her skin was almost unnaturally flawless.
Do girls with cat-type martial souls all have such incredible bodies?
The thought flashed through his mind.
Most of her body was exposed, her most private areas covered by nothing more than shells.
If it were any other man, he'd probably have opened the cage and pounced like a starving wolf.
Ao Tian smiled and nodded.
"Not bad."
Whether in looks or figure, she was quite pleasing to the eye.
He opened the cage, pulled her out, lifted her up, and tossed her onto the bed.
The girl struggled weakly. Lacking strength, her resistance turned into helpless writhing in his arms.
A surge of heat rose in Ao Tian's lower abdomen. Holding such a尤物, it would be a lie to say he felt nothing.
But it was only desire—nothing more.
He placed her on the bed, pressed a hand to her forehead, and used divine power to dispel the drugs in her body.
In just a few seconds, her strength returned.
She stared at him in shock, unable to understand why he would help her recover.
Ao Tian took out a set of his own clothes and tossed them onto her.
"I don't have any underwear. These are mine. Put them on, then come with me."
With that, he turned his back to her.
The girl stared at his back. A flash of viciousness crossed her eyes as sharp claws extended from her fingers—though no soul rings appeared.
Her heart struggled with the decision: should she kill this man, then try to escape?
After a long moment, the struggle faded. The claws retracted, and she quietly began putting on the clothes.
She understood—she was just an ordinary person. Even if she killed him, she wouldn't escape this auction house alive.
Moreover, this handsome man hadn't touched her improperly, and even turned around when she changed clothes. He seemed… like a gentleman.
So she chose to trust him.
Still, her heart was filled with sorrow and confusion. She had no idea what awaited her next.
"I'm… dressed," she said softly, her face flushed.
She didn't want to be defiled by Ao Tian, but changing clothes behind a strange man made her feel deeply ashamed.
Ao Tian turned around and said, "Let's go."
He headed for the door.
She climbed off the bed and called out hesitantly,
"But… I don't have any shoes."
"Then go barefoot," Ao Tian said without turning his head, pushing the door open and walking out.
