Chapter 6

"Gu Xuan brother!" Ning Rongrong in the spectator room also shouted anxiously.

Gu Rong, who had grabbed Gu Xuan's handsome face, gave a slight smile and said softly, "You dare to play tricks on your grandfather, you little rascal have a rebellious bone."

As his words fell, Gu Rong, still holding Gu Xuan's handsome face, pressed him straight down onto the ground.

"Bang!"

Gu Xuan's back of the head made intimate contact with the ground, directly emitting a thunderous boom.

Gu Rong didn't use much force, but Gu Xuan felt his whole body was about to be shaken apart.

"Grandpa Bone, Rongrong won't like you anymore!" Before Gu Rong and Gu Xuan could speak, Ning Rongrong's voice rang out.

Gu Rong instantly put on an innocent face, threw Gu Xuan aside without a care, a black hole appeared before him and he jumped in; the next moment he appeared beside Ning Rongrong, cupping her puffy little face and said softly, "My little princess, Grandpa Bone is just training your Gu Xuan brother, not really bullying him."

Ning Rongrong turned her head away, puffing her cheeks, "I don't care, I saw you hit Gu Xuan brother, grabbing his face and pressing it to the ground— is that training?"

Gu Rong gave a helpless smile and continued to coax Ning Rongrong: "Rongrong, Xuan'er is my dear grandson; I couldn't really beat him up, this kid is tough, you know that, a couple of taps won't hurt him."

Chen Xin stood aside, smiling without picking up the conversation; their little princess will probably end up pressing down on Gu Xuan for life.

While Gu Rong was coaxing Ning Rongrong, Gu Xuan lay on the ground letting out a groan, slowly got up, twisted his sore neck, glanced around— where was Gu Rong's figure?

Gu Xuan felt helpless inside; Grandpa is fine everywhere, just that when he strikes he doesn't hold back— if Gu Rong used a bit more force, his neck would probably snap in two.

Gu Xuan lifted his head toward the spectator room and happened to see Gu Rong putting on a smiling face to coax Ning Rongrong; Ning Rongrong's earlier shout for Gu Xuan was naturally heard, and his heart felt even more affection for this good little sister.

One thing subdues another— Chen Xin and Gu Rong, these two old men fear neither heaven nor earth, sometimes they don't even give Ning Fengzhi face, but only for this little girl Ning Rongrong do they obey her every command; they're two doting-on-their-daughters maniacs!

Seeing Gu Xuan rise, Ning Rongrong, noting nothing serious, immediately shouted: "Gu Xuan brother, are you alright?"

Gu Xuan looked at Ning Rongrong, smiling as he replied: "I'm fine, Grandpa is just playing with me."

Gu Xuan said it reluctantly; this old man just wanted to play with him, but seeing his own grandfather putting on a smiling face to coax Ning Rongrong, he could only say he was fine.

People get old, they're up in years; one can't always keep causing them trouble.

"Sigh, I really am a good person!" Gu Xuan inwardly smirked.

Before Ning Rongrong could speak, a black hole had already appeared before Gu Xuan— naturally Gu Rong's handiwork.

Gu Xuan stepped in; his vision flashed black and white for a moment, like blinking an eye, and the next instant he was already beside Gu Rong.

Although it wasn't his first time using the spatial gate, each time he used it Gu Xuan felt envious— this skill is truly damn convenient.

Never mind whether it's strong or not, being handsome is a lifelong affair.

Remember when Gu Xuan first used the spatial gate he even vomited; that damn thing just zipped through space, making him feel worse than riding in the god-driver's car on Mount Akina, but Gu Xuan adapts well, so now he has no adverse reactions.

As soon as Gu Xuan appeared, Ning Rongrong lunged at him.

Ning Rongrong anxiously asked: "Gu Xuan brother, are you not injured?"

Gu Xuan helplessly rubbed Ning Rongrong's little head, softly comforting: "I'm fine, aren't I? But I still thank you for your concern."

Gu Xuan also put on a proud, aloof face and didn't look at Gu Rong; beating him didn't matter, but you can't just strike the face— if this handsome face were ruined, how would he find a beautiful wife later, who would carry on the Gu lineage?

Chen Xin timely spoke: "Xuan'er, your soul power should have reached rank thirty-three, right?"

Gu Xuan looked at Chen Xin and replied: "Second uncle, my soul power is already early rank thirty-three, with no trace of falseness; this is also a benefit of absorbing a soul ring beyond my level."

Upon hearing that, Chen Xin and Gu Rong both nodded satisfied, saying: "It's just noon; let's go give Fengzhi the good news."

In Ning Fengzhi's villa, at that moment five people sat around the table eating a feast; hearing that Gu Xuan had broken through rank thirty and his soul power had directly reached rank thirty-three, Ning Fengzhi's face showed uncontainable excitement, and he immediately gave Gu Xuan a gift as a reward.

There's nothing to be done; they're just rich, and they don't stint on these two little geniuses Gu Xuan and Ning Rongrong— if they have something good, they just give it outright.

Originally Ning Fengzhi had prepared a five-thousand-year-ranked earth tyrant dragon torso bone for Gu Xuan, but Gu Xuan didn't choose to absorb it now.

The reason is that his cultivation is still too low now; he doesn't want to rely too much on external aid, but rather first train himself to build a solid foundation, later enhancing his foundation by absorbing the soul bone.

Both Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong approved of Gu Xuan's idea, so they stored that soul bone away, planning to decide later when Gu Xuan's cultivation improves.

Only Gu Xuan himself knows that absorbing the soul bone now is not wise; although he can't achieve a full set of hundred-thousand-year soul rings and soul bones, who can say for sure what the future holds?

In the Star Dou Great Forest, the known hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts are the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python; in the sea there's also the Evil Devil Tiger Whale King and the Demon Soul Great White Shark King Xiao Bai, both hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts, not to mention the Deep Sea Devil Whale King, a super spirit beast with cultivation nearing a million years.

Gu Xuan doesn't claim he'll hunt all of them with a hundred percent success, but reserving a soul bone slot for the future is possible, after all the future is truly uncertain.

Of course, most importantly, although the continent is turbulent now, it's still relatively peaceful; he doesn't need to absorb a soul bone now to boost his cultivation and foundation, so he can wait a bit longer.

If in the end there really is no choice, absorbing this torso bone later would not be too late.

After all, this torso bone reaches fifty thousand years, it's a dragon species, its quality can be called supreme, and it's something you can encounter but not seek.

After the meal, Gu Xuan expressed his wish to go study at the Tian Dou Royal Academy; Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong initially naturally didn't want to let Gu Xuan go out.

After all, within the sect their teachings are already sufficient, and Gu Xuan's talent is too great— going out would instead pose danger.

But Gu Xuan naturally couldn't stay in the sect; he directly told Ning Fengzhi: "Uncle, it's not that your vision is too narrow— staying in the sect is indeed fine, but I need to go out to witness the true bearing of the Soul Master world, and I can't spend my whole life alone, can I?"

Upon hearing that, Ning Fengzhi directly retorted: "If you want companions, you can pick them from the sect disciples; though they may not match you, they are all geniuses too, and the sect is safer."

Gu Xuan waved his hand, putting on an "I won't listen, I won't listen" act, and continued: "I know you're doing this for my good, but staying in the sect forever isn't my wish; besides, by going out I could also bring back a few geniuses for you— why not?"

Ning Fengzhi pondered for a moment, then continued: "I can agree to that, but you must return to the sect after each semester's break, and when the time comes I will test your strength; if you don't meet my standards, then you'll have to stay in the sect to cultivate from then on."

Gu Xuan nodded: "Sure, anyway you know my talent; I'm not the kind who turns wild once he leaves, you just watch— I'll definitely bring back a few geniuses for you when the time comes."

Ning Fengzhi heard that, shook his head helplessly, and in the end said nothing.

On the contrary, Ning Rongrong wore a reluctant expression as she took Gu Xuan's big hand; in the afternoon Gu Xuan kept her company, the two leaning together to watch the sunset.

To be honest, Gu Xuan suddenly found himself enjoying this kind of time.
