Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's words, the joy in Ye Qiu's heart quickly dissipated.
For a moment, he was stunned in place.
He asked, somewhat uncertainly, "Uncle Ning, did you just say that the Crown Prince was seriously injured?!"
"Hmm, that's right!"
Ning Fengzhi nodded with a solemn expression, then turned his back again and continued walking into the house, his voice uninterrupted.
"A few days ago, when Qian Renxue had just come out of the imperial palace, she was assassinated, and her entire body was pierced by Hidden Weapons, almost dying!"
"What?! Senior Brother Qian Renxue almost died?! Grandpa Bone, who did it?!"
Ning Rongrong, who was immersed in the joy of becoming Ye Qiu's fiancée, also sobered up from the shock of this news.
That was the Empire's Crown Prince, who had such guts?!
Bone Douluo, standing nearby, glanced at Ye Qiu.
"We were just discussing this matter. If you want to know more, please sit down and talk properly!"
Without saying anything more, Grandpa Sword and Bone Douluo also followed Ning Fengzhi away.
Ye Qiu stood there, stunned.
He finally understood why Qian Jun and Jiang Mo, the two brothers, suddenly left Soto City and went to Heaven Dou Imperial City!
It turned out that Qian Renxue had been assassinated!
"Xiao Qiu… what's wrong?"
Xiao Wu gently pushed him.
Ye Qiu then came back to his senses.
He gently shook his head: "Nothing, let's go in first, I imagine you all are tired from standing!"
"No, I'm not tired at all!"
Ning Rongrong wrapped her arm around his, smiling, without the slightest hint of fatigue.
Her gaze swept over Zhu Zhuqing, who was also somewhat lost in thought.
She smiled teasingly.
"Zhuqing might actually be tired, after all, such a big burden…"
"Rongrong… I'm not tired, I'm already used to it!"
Zhu Zhuqing reacted, dodged her extended demonic claw, and gave her a shy glare.
She didn't know why Ning Rongrong always liked to tease her.
Was it just because she was so much better than her?!
She gave a strange look at Ning Rongrong's already somewhat developed figure.
She transferred some of the blush from her own face to Ning Rongrong.
"Alright, let's hurry and catch up!" Ye Qiu helplessly pinched Ning Rongrong, who was in his arms, and a roll of his eyes was met with a grimace.
Everyone returned to the main hall and sat down.
"Rongrong, can you please pay a little more attention?!" Ning Fengzhi, sitting in the main seat, had a dark expression and tapped the floor with his cane.
Looking at his daughter, who kept trying to squeeze into Ye Qiu's arms and sit on him, his face was filled with the frustration of seeing iron turn into steel!
Although he had agreed to their relationship, was it really necessary to be so blatant?
Being watched by everyone, Ning Rongrong, who had successfully settled down, felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.
She could only lower her head and sit down next to Xiao Wu.
"Uh, Uncle Ning, do you know who assassinated the Crown Prince?"
Ye Qiu's face was also a bit awkward, but he was eager to ask the question in his heart.
Ning Fengzhi's expression softened, and his head swayed.
It was as if he was shaking his head, and also as if he was nodding.
"I don't know exactly who it is, but I already have a suspect!"
"Which force does Uncle Ning suspect?"
"Unclear!"
"Unclear?" Ye Qiu was almost baffled by him.
"Hmm! Unclear!" Ning Fengzhi nodded again, and then continued: "That person is named Evil Blood, and he was brought back by Xue Beng. The reason for suspecting him is that the timing is a bit coincidental!"
"Qian Renxue's assassination happened exactly the day before Xue Beng returned from his Spirit hunting trip!"
"Evil Blood? Brought back by Xue Beng!?" Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment.
This inexplicable change made him frown.
"But… Uncle Ning, is this mere coincidence in timing really enough for you to draw that conclusion?"
"Of course, that alone isn't enough!" Ning Fengzhi also nodded in agreement, looking at him with appreciation.
Then he stared at Ye Qiu seriously.
"But what if the appearance of this person could give Xue Beng, who originally had no chance in the competition for the throne, the ability to contend with Qian Renxue?"
"What?!" Ye Qiu was startled, how could one person possibly have such power!
"Could it be that that Evil Blood's cultivation is very strong?"
"Boy, you guessed right, he is indeed very strong!" Sword Douluo's voice was laced with solemnity.
"After Xue Beng introduced him to Xue Ye, he immediately became an Imperial Enshrinement! Fengzhi and I also attended the banquet and met him!"
"I can tell you clearly, he is a genuine Ninety-eighth Rank Titled Douluo! This level of cultivation… perhaps only if Old Bone and I go together can we contend with him!"
"Ninety-eighth Rank?!"
Ye Qiu's jaw dropped in surprise, and his mind suddenly became a bit muddled.
Why had he never heard of this Titled Douluo?!
"Grandpa Sword, you're not joking, are you? Even with the boost my father gives you, you still can't defeat that guy?"
Ning Rongrong looked at him in surprise, somewhat disbelieving.
Ever since she was little, she had always felt that her two grandpas were the top powerhouses on the continent.
"Grandpa Sword is not joking. The situation I just described also includes Fengzhi!"
Sword Douluo sighed helplessly.
He had no choice but to explain more clearly.
"Within Ninety-fifth Rank Titled Douluo, the difference might not be very big, but in the section above Ninety-fifth Rank, the difference is huge!"
"At the same time, the difficulty of breaking through after Ninety-fifth Rank is immense, not only the accumulation of spirit power, but also enlightenment is required!"
"Ninety-sixth Rank has twenty percent more spirit power than Ninety-fifth Rank Titled Douluo, and Ninety-seventh Rank has thirty percent more than Ninety-sixth Rank! And so on, just from spirit power, the difference can be seen!"
Zhu Zhuqing and the other girls listened quietly; they truly didn't know much about these things.
Now, listening to it, it felt very novel and inspiring.
Bone Douluo, standing nearby, couldn't help but say:
"Rongrong, your Grandpa Sword really isn't talking nonsense. This old bone of mine has also been stuck at Ninety-fifth Rank for many years without breaking through!"
Among those present, perhaps only Bone Douluo had the most right to speak.
Although he and Sword Douluo had fought their entire lives, he had to admit that he was indeed inferior.
Hearing this, Sword Douluo gave a strange laugh and looked at Bone Douluo teasingly.
"Heh, actually, your spirit power has long been enough, you just lack a bit of epiphany, who told you not to be as focused as me? Otherwise, you would have broken through to Ninety-sixth Rank long ago!"
"Hmph! You're just temporarily ahead!" Bone Douluo snorted coldly, unconvinced.
"Alright, you two, don't start fighting again." Ning Fengzhi helplessly waved his hand, telling the two to calm down.
"In short, that Evil Blood is indeed very powerful, and his origin is also very mysterious. I don't know if there are other unknown forces behind him!"
Ning Fengzhi also pinched his brow, feeling a headache.
Logically speaking, Titled Douluo powerhouses on the continent should all have records in Spirit Hall.
The sudden appearance of such a person in Heaven Dou Imperial City, who knew what kind of changes it would bring.
Seeing Ye Qiu still deep in thought, Ning Fengzhi didn't say much more on this topic.
"Ye Qiu, remember to visit Qian Renxue later!"
"Hmm, I will!"
Ye Qiu nodded numbly.
The inexplicable changes happening in this World really caught him off guard!
Based on the current analysis.
Even if Qian Renxue's assassination wasn't carried out by that Evil Blood Douluo, it was related to the forces behind him.
'Perhaps… Qian Renxue might know more about that Evil Blood's information!'
Ye Qiu thought to himself, keeping this matter in mind.
"Cough cough…" Ning Fengzhi suddenly coughed twice.
Ye Qiu looked at him in confusion, and the two looked at each other in silence.
"Uncle Ning, is there anything else?" Feeling a little flustered from being stared at, Ye Qiu tentatively asked.
Thump, thump!
Ning Fengzhi frowned and tapped the armrest of his chair with his hand.
"What? Where's your betrothal gift, you brat?"
"…" Several black lines appeared on Ye Qiu's forehead, and he looked at Ning Rongrong somewhat awkwardly.
"Pfft… Hahahaha!" Ning Rongrong couldn't help but burst out laughing at this comical scene.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were also holding back their laughter.
They never expected the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to show such a mercenary side.
"Dad, why are you so loud?! Didn't I just say that Rongrong collected it for you?!"
Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes at her old father and quickly ran to his side.
Her small hand swiped across the table.
A thick stack of papers, covered in lines, appeared on it.
She proudly patted the blueprints twice.
"Here, all the Hidden Weapons Ye Qiu demonstrated earlier are here: Silent Sleeve Dart, Godly Zhuge Crossbow, Powder Shooting Shadow, Stomp Crossbow, Boot Blade, Tight-Back Decorated Crossbow, Flying God Claw!"
"Girl, when was I loud?" Ning Fengzhi sighed helplessly, had his family status somewhat declined?
Logically speaking, as her future father-in-law, even if he was a bit loud, wasn't that still very reasonable?
He sighed in his heart that a grown daughter could not be kept at home.
Then he quickly picked up the blueprints to examine them.
Ning Rongrong giggled, taking the opportunity to sit back in Ye Qiu's arms.
Grandpa Sword and Bone Douluo no longer had time to pay attention to them.
They got up and walked to Ning Fengzhi's side, examining them carefully.
"These small things are actually so exquisite!" Bone Douluo couldn't help but nod repeatedly as he looked at the blueprints on the paper.
"Hmm, but with these blueprints, it won't be difficult to replicate them!"
Ning Fengzhi nodded happily.
The blueprints were precise down to every single part, and the materials used were all clearly indicated.
To obtain these things called Hidden Weapons was an unexpected pleasant surprise!
"Of course! These blueprints were all drawn by Ye Qiu stroke by stroke. He spent a lot of effort and time on them!"
Ning Rongrong leaned in Ye Qiu's arms, ignoring his feelings, wiggling her feet, her face flushed with a smile.
"I really don't know where you found these things, kid!"
Sword Douluo put down the items in his hand, looking at Ye Qiu with confusion.
Hearing this, Ye Qiu also reacted.
He had to explain some precautions for them to use Hidden Weapons.
If they were discovered by Tang San while using them, and then Tang San started shouting about the Upper Three Sects being connected by a common Spirit.
Wouldn't that be extremely awkward?
He helplessly wrapped his arm around Ning Rongrong's waist and lifted her up a bit.
His voice was somewhat serious.
"Uncle Ning, for now, if these things are made, it's best not to use them in public!"
"Oh? Why is that?" Ning Fengzhi looked at him strangely.
He had already seen the blueprints, and he could only say that Ye Qiu was very thoughtful.
The design of these Hidden Weapons even had a sense of copyright; if forcibly disassembled, they would automatically disintegrate.
Even if exposed, it wouldn't be easy for others to pirate them.
"Hmm…"
Ye Qiu pondered for a moment.
For a moment, he didn't know how to explain.
He wanted to throw Tang Hao's dropped right arm bone to them to see.
But without exposing Da Ming and the others, he couldn't find a suitable reason.
He couldn't just say he picked it up, could he?
Logically speaking, if the Hidden Weapons techniques were leaked, with Tang San's personality, he would probably wish to eliminate the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as soon as possible.
But this World had already undergone unknown changes.
What if Ning Fengzhi and he got together again? Wouldn't that be extremely messed up?!
He made a decisive decision.
To prevent such a thing, Ye Qiu decided to tell the truth!
Completely cutting off any possibility of Ning Fengzhi befriending Tang San!
He said in a deep voice, "That's because these Hidden Weapons also have an unclear relationship with the Clear Sky Sect!"
"Clear Sky Sect?!" Ning Fengzhi's heart trembled, and his expression immediately changed.
"How could this be related to the Clear Sky Sect?"
As far as Ning Fengzhi knew, the Clear Sky Sect's forging was indeed exceptional, but Ning Fengzhi understood them.
These exquisite things called Hidden Weapons, how could they possibly be something those rough guys could research?
"To be precise, it's related to Tang San, the son of Clear Sky Douluo!"
Ye Qiu slowly began to speak.
Ning Rongrong, in his arms, also understood the seriousness of the matter and stopped moving.
She listened quietly to Ye Qiu and the others speak.
"Tang Hao's son!?" Sword Douluo frowned and looked at him.
Compared to Tang San, he was still very curious about news of Tang Hao.
"Kid, have you seen Tang Hao?"
"Yes, and we have a grudge!" Ye Qiu nodded truthfully.
"Kid, what do you mean?!" Bone Douluo looked at Ye Qiu in surprise.
He didn't know how a mere Spirit Elder like him could have formed a grudge with Tang Hao!?
"When I was studying at a low-level college, I was almost killed by Tang Hao!"
"Now, his right arm bone is still lying in my Divine Might Space, and he himself is of unknown life and death!"
Ye Qiu's two understated sentences, however, stirred up monstrous waves in the hearts of Ning Fengzhi and the two Douluo.
"Tang Hao's right arm? Kid, you're not joking, are you?" Sword Douluo looked at him with disbelief.
Although Tang Hao had no news after becoming a Titled Douluo, except for his feat of counter-killing the previous Supreme Pontiff.
But as one of the Clear Sky Twin Stars, his power was undeniable!
"I would naturally not joke about such things to amuse you, sirs!" A bloody light flashed in Ye Qiu's eyes, and a right arm bone immediately appeared in his hand.
Before he could say anything.
Ning Rongrong held the Spirit Bone and shoved it into Sword Douluo's hand.
"Grandpa Sword, look, what Ye Qiu said is all true. That Tang Hao is so miserable, he was tricked by Ye Qiu, lost an arm, and no one knows where he died!"
After all, she had truly witnessed that battle in the illusion.
What Ning Rongrong said added some truth to Ye Qiu's words.
In her words, there was not the slightest respect for the so-called Clear Sky Douluo.
For her, she was already Ye Qiu's fiancée, so of course, she had to support him unconditionally!
Sword Douluo looked numbly at the Spirit Bone in his hand; with his knowledge, he naturally knew.
The age of this Spirit Bone would definitely not be less than Ten Thousand Year!
Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo immediately gathered around to examine the Spirit Bone.
"It is indeed the Clear Sky Sect's inherited Spirit Bone!" Ning Fengzhi's astonished voice rang out.
"Fengzhi, you didn't misread it, did you?" Grandpa Bone still seemed a bit disbelieving.
"There's no mistake! When the Clear Sky Sect hadn't closed, I attended the ceremony where Tang Hao became the Young Sect Master, and this Spirit Bone was granted at that time!"
Ning Fengzhi examined it closely; this Spirit Bone was identical to how he remembered it!
"Kid, I wonder how you managed to scheme against him? That's a Titled Douluo..."
Grandpa Sword looked at Ye Qiu, feeling inexplicably nervous about the test he had set earlier.
He glanced at Grandpa Bone beside him.
Only then did his heart settle a bit.
Even if Ye Qiu wanted to prove his strength to him, he should have picked an easier target.
Ning Fengzhi also frowned deeply.
He looked at Ye Qiu strangely.
Of course, he didn't believe that Ye Qiu alone could sever Tang Hao's right arm.
He couldn't help but nod: "To be honest, I'm a bit curious too!"
"I just called two friends, used Tang San as bait, and ambushed him, that's all!"
Seeing that Ning Fengzhi still wanted to get to the bottom of it, Ye Qiu quickly added:
"However, those two friends, I can't tell the seniors much about them. Rongrong and the others have seen them though!"
"Yes, yes! Rongrong's third spirit ring was also thanks to their help!" Ning Rongrong nodded repeatedly.
Upon hearing this.
Ning Fengzhi and the two Douluo exchanged glances.
They couldn't help but reassess Ye Qiu.
This kid seemed much more mysterious than they had imagined; behind him, there must be a force that cannot be underestimated!
"Alright, then we won't force you! But I am curious about how you and that kid Tang Hao became enemies!"
Grandpa Bone was still a bit curious.
How could a Titled Douluo and a kid from a junior Spirit Master academy become enemies?
"…"
Ye Qiu gave him a strange look.
Grandpa Sword was right, Grandpa Bone was indeed not as focused as him, and liked to listen to gossip.
Ning Fengzhi and Grandpa Sword also became attentive.
They stared directly at Ye Qiu.
What kind of deep hatred could make a Titled Douluo stoop to killing a child?!
Ye Qiu's mouth twitched. Fortunately, there was nothing that couldn't be told.
He just needed to change the key parts.
"This matter is actually related to Xiao Wu."
Ye Qiu's voice resonated leisurely, his gaze falling on Xiao Wu.
Upon meeting his eyes, her small face instantly flushed with warmth.
Related to Xiao Wu?
Ning Fengzhi and the others looked at Xiao Wu; besides being highly talented and pretty, she didn't seem to have anything special about her.
Ignoring them, Ye Qiu slowly recounted the whole story.
"At that time, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and I were all studying at Notting College, and we were in the same dormitory…"
At the same time, to make his words more credible.
Ye Qiu's pupil power spread out, and with everyone's cooperation, he subtly pulled them into an illusion.
Witnessing the day Tang Hao called him out.
"Damn it, this Tang Hao is so despicable, he truly disgraces the name Clear Sky!"
After hearing the story, Grandpa Sword was immediately filled with righteous indignation.
Grandpa Bone also sighed with emotion.
"This kid is truly shameless; rumors cannot be fully trusted!"
"I even had some respect for him," Ning Fengzhi also shook his head.
"So that's how it is."
Zhuqing looked at Ye Qiu blankly. No wonder he appeared alone in the Star Dou Great Forest and asked her to protect Xiao Wu.
In Ye Qiu's narration.
He concealed the fact that Xiao Wu was a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast that had taken human form.
Such a story.
Although it seemed a bit outlandish, the truth seemed to be just that.
The cause of the incident was that Tang Hao, in order to eliminate a love rival for his son, mercilessly attacked a child.
"Fengzhi, what do you think?"
Grandpa Sword held the Spirit Bone in his hand and looked at Ning Fengzhi.
He had heard Ning Fengzhi say many things about being of the same breath and branch.
He wondered what he would choose this time?
Is it the Clear Sky Sect? Or Ye Qiu!
"Hehe."
Looking at his daughter, who was clinging tightly to Ye Qiu.
Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The hope and future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had already been given away.
What else could he do?
He slowly straightened his back and said with a smile:
"That, of course, depends on Rongrong's choice. After all, this future is for the young people to decide!"
"Thank you, Dad! Then of course I choose my future husband!"
Ning Rongrong beamed with joy, hugging Ye Qiu and giving him a few pecks.
She wasn't worried about these matters.
She had blind confidence in Ye Qiu.
She believed Ye Qiu would handle it well!
"Hey, Fengzhi, this isn't like your usual style! But I really support this decision!"
Grandpa Sword exuded the sharpness of the Seven Kill Sword.
The Clear Sky Sect was no longer the head of the Upper Three Sects.
What was there to fear!
"Since that's the case, I'll go kill that kid Tang San right now! If Tang Hao dares to show his face, I'll send them both down together!"
Grandpa Bone was not a kind-hearted person.
He had basically no feelings for things like being of the same breath and branch. According to the original development, he also had the intention of eliminating Tang San for the sake of the Sect's status.
"Uncle Bone, no! We should handle this matter with a more stable approach first!"
Ning Fengzhi stopped Grandpa Bone.
He understood the power of a Titled Douluo, and he thought more deeply.
Their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had a large family and business. If Tang Hao was really not dead, they would be in a lot of trouble.
It would be better to find an appropriate opportunity to 'accidentally' make Tang San's identity public!
Even if those Hidden Weapons couldn't be exposed, they would still be excellent as the Sect's last line of defense!
"Uncle Ning, don't worry about Tang San. I'll take full responsibility for that!"
Ye Qiu was very clear that for a long time to come.
There would be no conflict between the two Sects.
The current Clear Sky Sect simply didn't dare to show its face!
Presumably, this was also one of the reasons why Ning Fengzhi chose him without hesitation.
"Alright, take this Spirit Bone back!"
Ning Fengzhi nodded, took the Spirit Bone from Grandpa Sword's hand, and handed it back to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu, however, raised his hand and pushed it back.
He said with a faint smile: "Uncle Ning, you should keep this Spirit Bone. After all, I'm the one who dragged the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School into this!"
"Consider it an extra dowry for Rongrong!"
"This dowry is truly heavy: Spirit Bone, Hidden Weapons, Immortal Herb. But since we're all family now, I'll accept it without formality!"
Ning Fengzhi did not refuse. With the appearance of the Evil Blood Douluo, he, who already felt that the continent would not be peaceful for long, felt even more pressure.
This Spirit Bone had a high age limit, and it might allow Grandpa Sword to find an opportunity to break through to rank ninety-seven.
Only by becoming stronger could the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School stand firm and embrace a better future!
"Alas, your wealth, kid, is richer than both of us Titled Douluo!" Grandpa Bone shook his head. He had lived most of his life, yet he didn't even have a Spirit Bone.
Grandpa Sword also nodded in agreement.
(PS: I don't know why, among the Upper Three Sects, the richest Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School seems to lack Spirit Bones the most, and I haven't heard of inherited Spirit Bones here. Let's just assume there aren't any.)
"You two seniors flatter me. This junior was just lucky!"
Ye Qiu smiled.
He didn't think the dowry was too heavy; Ning Rongrong's dowry was equivalent to the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
What he truly paid was only one Immortal Herb.
"Alright, it's getting late!" Ning Fengzhi looked up at the sky outside.
It was only about an hour until dinner time.
"You should take this time to visit Qinghe! By the time you return, dinner should be ready."
"Understood!" Ye Qiu replied.
He picked up Ning Rongrong and placed her back on the stool.
He was also a bit curious about how badly Qian Renxue was injured, to the point that even Qian Jun and Jiang Mo, the two brothers, were rushing over without stopping.
"Then, Uncle Ning, two seniors! Ye Qiu will take his leave for now!"
"Go on!" Ning Fengzhi waved his hand.
Ye Qiu instructed Xiao Wu and the other girls on a few things, then didn't linger.
Divine Might activated, and he disappeared from the hall.
"Alright, lass! You're not going to not see him again. It's just for a little while, no need to look so glum!"
Ning Fengzhi shook his head and chuckled. The poison of love was indeed too deep.
Ning Rongrong looked at him resentfully: "I was thinking... we didn't seem to discuss when to get engaged!"
"Engaged?" Ning Fengzhi was taken aback, then gave a bitter smile.
"Now is not a good time. When the situation in Heaven Dou Imperial City stabilizes, or when you are a little older, Dad will arrange it!"
"That's good!" Ning Rongrong happily jumped off her seat and went to Xiao Wu and Zhuqing's side.
She knew Xiao Wu's identity, so she simply invited them both.
"Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, do you want to join us then?"
"Ah? Rongrong, is that something we can join?" Zhuqing looked at her shyly and shook her head, refusing.
She still wanted to resolve the Star Luo matter before considering these things.
Xiao Wu's eyes, however, flashed with a hint of longing, but she also shook her head.
"No, this is your own time, Rongrong!"
She understood the importance of such matters to a girl.
"Hehe... Let's talk about these things later. You can also ask Ye Qiu for his opinion!"
Ning Fengzhi, uncharacteristically, didn't consider the reputation of his Sect.
This was also one of the ways to win over Xiao Wu and Zhuqing.
"Mmm, Dad is right!" Ning Rongrong nodded and didn't bring up the matter again.
This matter indeed had to be discussed with Ye Qiu, after all, he was the male lead!
"Uncle Sword, take this Spirit Bone and absorb it!" Ning Fengzhi handed the Spirit Bone in his hand to Grandpa Sword.
This action also solidified his stance.
Once a Spirit Bone is absorbed, it can only be cut off.
Even if the Clear Sky Sect were to discover it someday, they wouldn't be able to get him to return it!
"Mmm!" Grandpa Sword also didn't refuse. In this Sect, only he and Old Bone were qualified to absorb this Spirit Bone.
Grandpa Bone's primary attributes were defense and space, so this Spirit Bone was clearly more suitable for him.
With the power amplification of this Spirit Bone, even if he couldn't break through, at least the attack power of the Seven Kill Sword would be much stronger.
Grandpa Bone looked at that scene, and the envy in his eyes was noticed by Ning Rongrong.
"Grandpa Bone, don't be too envious! Rongrong will take good care of you in the future and even give you Spirit Bones! Haha!"
Ning Rongrong ran over and hugged him, letting out a clear laugh.
"Lass, with your kind heart, Grandpa Bone is already very happy!"
Grandpa Bone lovingly stroked her head, only thinking she was comforting him.
He had no idea that Ning Rongrong was very serious.
"Uncle Bone..."
Just as Ning Fengzhi was about to say something, Grandpa Bone waved his hand.
"Fengzhi, I know very well that this Spirit Bone is not suitable for me!"
"It's good that you know, Old Bone. When we spar in the future, I can let you have a few moves!"
Grandpa Sword had been with him for so long that he naturally knew he wouldn't hold a grudge over this.
Therefore, he still spoke as usual, without formality.
"Hmph! By then, I'll have to thoroughly test your mettle! If there's no progress... that would be laughable!" Grandpa Bone snorted coldly, glaring fiercely at Grandpa Sword.
Ning Rongrong smiled at them and didn't say anything explicitly.
She had to keep Ye Qiu's secret.
Her gaze fell on Xiao Wu and Zhuqing, who were sitting uncomfortably to the side.
Ning Rongrong also didn't want to stay here anymore.
"Dad, actually, I have another little surprise for you!"
"Another surprise?" Ning Fengzhi's heart skipped a beat. He had already received enough shocks today.
"Yes, I met a food system Spirit Master with innate full spirit power at Shrek Academy! He has already agreed to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
"A food system Spirit Master with innate full spirit power? Rongrong, this surprise isn't small, is it?"
Ning Fengzhi's mouth twitched. Even he had never heard of an innate full spirit power in the support system.
"It's alright, compared to what Ye Qiu gave me, it's just so-so!" Ning Rongrong waved her hand indifferently, her face full of pride.
Ning Fengzhi held his head, not knowing how to refute her.
"Alright, everything has been said. If there's nothing else, I'll take Xiao Wu and the others to look around first!"
"Go, go, treat them well!"
Ning Rongrong took Xiao Wu and Zhuqing's small hands and was about to walk out.
As she reached the door, her steps paused again.
Ning Rongrong turned her head and looked at Ning Fengzhi in confusion.
"Dad, why aren't you asking if Ye Qiu still has any qiluo tulips?"
Ning Fengzhi was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then smiled gently.
"Dad believes that I still have some standing in your heart, right? My good daughter must have already asked for me!"
"Hehe... Of course!" Ning Rongrong was overjoyed.
"Dad, don't be too disheartened. Ye Qiu said there will be other ways to help you!"
"Mmm!" Ning Fengzhi just nodded lightly. He wasn't at the stage of blindly trusting Ye Qiu.
Ning Rongrong didn't say much more and led the two girls out of the hall.
Looking at their departing figures.
Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone both stared intently at Ning Fengzhi, as if to force him.
"Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, what are you doing?" Ning Fengzhi took a step back.
The two, one on the left and one on the right, pressed down on his shoulders.
Grandpa Sword looked at him strangely.
"Fengzhi, tell me honestly, did you already know that Ye Qiu had the ability to evolve Rongrong's Spirit into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"
Wishing everyone a happy life!
