Chapter 398: Ning Rongrong After Four Years

Seven days had passed; not only had Qin Jian and Hu Liena returned to the Spirit Hall, but Tang San had also returned to Heaven Dou City under the guidance of Tang Hao.

However, he did not head to Yuexuan immediately, but instead went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect first.

"Third Brother, when they told me you were here to see me, I couldn't even believe it. It's been four years... Huh? Who are you?"

In the council hall, Ning Rongrong, who had grown increasingly beautiful and moving, walked in.

The blue-haired man turned around, and red light flickered in his eyes almost involuntarily.

"Ugh..."

Ning Rongrong was subconsciously intimidated and took a step back.

"Sorry Rongrong, I still can't control myself well right now..."

Tang San realized this and hurriedly withdrew the killing intent in his eyes, then his signature Eight Spider Soul Bone revealed itself behind him.

"Are you really Third Brother?" Ning Rongrong asked with some pleasant surprise.

"Mm."

Tang San nodded quite coldly, then took out a letter: "This is a letter Qin Jian asked me to bring to you."

"Jian-gege's letter?!"

At this, Ning Rongrong's gaze truly brightened, her entire face glowing, and the reserved image of the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could no longer be maintained.

"Give it to me, give it to me quickly!"

She practically lunged forward and snatched the letter from Tang San's hand.

Tang San: "..."

"Uh, sorry Third Brother, I was too impatient. You sit down first, I'll have someone prepare a banquet to welcome you later."

Several years had passed, and Ning Rongrong had also become much more steady than before.

Tang San shook his head and said: "Rongrong, I have delivered his letter; now I have more important things to do."

"Ah? Third Brother won't even eat a meal?" Ning Rongrong asked in surprise.

"No, there is still a letter for Teacher, I am going now..."

Tang San waved his hand and said: "Besides, the killing intent on me has not yet been reined in, so it is not suitable for me to linger here. Let us meet again in a year."

Ning Rongrong hurriedly saw him off from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

After returning, she opened Qin Jian's letter almost impatiently.

Unfortunately, there were no love words as she had expected, but rather large sections of critical intelligence.

"How annoying, it's actually just to pass on information; he didn't even write me a dedicated letter. Hmph, stinky guy."

Ning Rongrong pouted as she read on, but the more she read, the more shocked she became, and her expression slowly turned serious: "This is truly a heaven-shaking secret..."

Until she reached the end, her expression remained exceptionally grave, and then she saw the final line.

The expression that had been so solemn suddenly flushed with a rosy glow, delicate and dripping with charm.

"Rongrong, I miss you."

A simple sentence, pouring out four years of separation and longing.

"I miss you too..."

Ning Rongrong gently pressed the letter against her heart, holding it in her arms, and didn't let go for a long while.

"No, the matters inside are too significant; I must tell Father as soon as possible."

After another while, she carefully hid Qin Jian's letter inside her Soul Guidance Device, then quickly walked toward Ning Fengzhi's study.

"Father, Father, and also Jian Yeye, Gu Yeye."

Stepping inside, she indeed found Ning Fengzhi, as well as Jian Douluo and Gu Douluo, who were always inseparable from his side.

"Rongrong? Is there something you need from Father?"

Ning Fengzhi seemed to be looking at the sect's financial reports, his face full of faint joy.

"Mm, Jian-gege had someone bring me a letter, and it says some very important things."

Ning Rongrong's single sentence attracted the attention of all three.

"Jian'er's news? What did he say?" Ning Fengzhi asked immediately.

Ning Rongrong then recounted the news she had just seen one by one.

Sure enough, the expressions of Ning Fengzhi and the two Douluo all became serious.

"Is this true?" Ning Fengzhi was uneasy and confirmed again.

Ning Rongrong then said: "That is what is written in the letter Jian-gege gave me."

"Rongrong, can you let me see Jian'er's letter?"

Ning Fengzhi saw Ning Rongrong's expression suddenly become somewhat coy, and hurriedly added: "The matter is of great importance; we must prevent it from being exploited by others."

"Alright then..."

Ning Rongrong helplessly took out the letter and handed it over.

Ning Fengzhi saw her reluctant appearance and couldn't help but laugh: "Father isn't going to snatch it from you; is there a need to be this careful?"

Ning Rongrong opened her mouth to speak but stopped.

"Jian Shu, let us examine it together."

Ning Fengzhi opened the letter, and Jian Douluo leaned over as well.

"The handwriting is correct, it is indeed Jian'er's; this narrative style is also entirely Jian'er's tone..."

The two read all the way down, until they reached the last sentence...

And then they both looked up and glanced at Ning Rongrong at the same time.

"Ugh... this sentence... mm... is also Jian'er's style..." Jian Douluo said with a straight face.

Ning Fengzhi saw that Ning Rongrong was blushing so hard she was about to lower her head to her chest, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile, handing the letter back: "Here, take your treasure."

Ning Rongrong hurriedly took it back and stored it in her Soul Guidance Device, only then letting out a sigh of relief as her complexion recovered somewhat.

This small interlude did not interrupt the serious mood of Ning Fengzhi and the other two.

"Jian'er's entire letter mentions two things: one is the Spirit Hall's most likely plan to annex and establish their authority, and the other is a secret regarding the Heaven Dou Imperial Family..."

Ning Fengzhi sat with his hands resting on his cane, his brows knitted in deep thought.

"The Heaven Dou Imperial Family is undergoing changes; we must prepare early..."

"The Soul Hunting Operation has begun; proceed according to the plan..."

Neither Jian Douluo nor Gu Douluo spoke; in decisions concerning the direction of the sect, they had always been unable to help Ning Fengzhi much.

"The Soul Hunting Operation is not a major problem; we have long had contingency plans, and I must coordinate well with Jian'er."

Ning Fengzhi said slowly: "As for the issue of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, Jian'er did not provide a clear opinion; I suppose he still does not know how to handle that person..."

"But if we let it be, then in the future, it will be very difficult to keep the Spirit Hall in check, unless Jian'er can truly bring the Spirit Hall completely under his control..."

He muttered to himself, not expecting anyone present to offer an opinion, simply sorting through his own thoughts.

"In any case, we cannot put all the pressure on Jian'er; we must also make preparations for both possibilities..."

Ning Fengzhi suddenly raised his head, his gaze toward Ning Rongrong gentle yet carrying a strange look: "Rongrong..."

"Ah, Dad, are you calling me?"

Ning Rongrong, who was clearly lost in thought, was startled.

"Thinking of Jian'er again?" Ning Fengzhi smiled.

"I, I am not..."

Ning Rongrong stood on her tiptoes, turning back and forth with a bashful appearance.

Ning Fengzhi smiled very gently: "Rongrong, do you want to be a princess?"

"Ah? What?!"

Ning Rongrong covered her mouth and exclaimed.

Jian Douluo and Gu Douluo also looked over in surprise.

"You heard me correctly; Dad is asking you, do you want to be a princess of the Heaven Dou Empire?" Ning Fengzhi smiled.

Although Ning Rongrong did not understand why he asked this, she did not care about the reason; she only grasped what she cared about.

"Dad, is becoming a princess to help Brother Jian?" she asked crisply.

Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly: "Yes."

Ning Rongrong looked at him with clear eyes: "Then I am willing to do it."

As long as she could help Brother Jian, anything would be fine...
