Chapter 181: Frank Confession

~16 min read 3,112 words

Ning Rongrong was also in disbelief; she clenched her fists tightly and said somewhat blankly, "It really... is... him..."

Ning Mingrui lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then stood up and said, "Father, that is indeed Feiliu."

The Sword Douluo was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly looked at Ning Mingrui and said, "Mingrui! Is that truly Feiliu?! Is it really him?!"

However, in his words, besides shock, there was also a hint of unspeakable joy.

If the true identity of "Yafei" was indeed a disciple of his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and he was also Fengzhi's own son... that would simply be for the best!

But why... was Ning Feiliu's martial soul not the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, but had instead changed into... the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon? Yet since Ning Mingrui had admitted this point, the Sword Douluo remained somewhat half-doubting.

But if it really was Ning Feiliu, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would gain a future powerful combat force born from a direct-line disciple!

As a Supreme Elder of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Sword Douluo was very happy to see this happen!

He, Ning Fengzhi, and the Bone Douluo were just worrying about the candidate for the future Supreme Elder!

Ning Fengzhi also reacted; he first looked at Ning Mingrui and said, "Mingrui! What exactly is going on here?! Why is Yafei Feiliu, and why is his martial soul..."

Then he turned his head and stared fixedly at Ning Feiliu, who was elegant and handsome, like an immortal or a god, on the Douhun Platform.

If this really was... Feiliu, then his Ning family had truly produced an extraordinary prodigy! But Ning Fengzhi was also worried that this was not Ning Feiliu, but someone impersonating him who looked very similar, or a spy who had used some method to disguise themselves as Ning Feiliu.

Ning Mingrui took a deep breath and said, "That is indeed Feiliu. As for Feiliu's martial soul... actually, the true form of his martial soul was hidden. The complete form of his martial soul is the evolved Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda... and this Crescent Moon Divine Weapon... is a martial soul that Feiliu forged using an ancient secret technique."

"The evolved Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda? The Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?" Both Ning Fengzhi and the Sword Douluo were somewhat overwhelmed by the sudden surprise.

Not only would his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect gain a powerful combat force in the future, but the dream martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, had finally evolved into the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?

However, Ning Mingrui shook his head and said, "No, it is the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Feiliu then recast the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon from his martial soul, which is why he gained the ability to become a Battle Soul Master."

"But what exactly is going on?" The Sword Douluo was still somewhat bewildered.

Originally, Ning Feiliu had the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul, but it suddenly evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and then he "recast" a new set of martial souls to become a Battle Soul Master.

This was so much information that even ordinary people would have a hard time reacting.

"It is also because of the help of the Poison Douluo, Senior Dugu. It is said that Feiliu swallowed three great immortal herbs: Extreme Fire, Extreme Ice, and Extreme Gold, which is why he evolved his martial soul into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and forged the unique martial soul set of the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon," Ning Mingrui explained immediately.

"The three great immortal herbs: Extreme Fire, Extreme Ice, and Extreme Gold? Mr. Dugu helped Feiliu? No wonder..." Ning Fengzhi suddenly realized.

At this moment, he believed it for the most part; after all, Ning Mingrui had also said that Yafei was indeed Ning Feiliu, and the probability of someone else impersonating him was very small, as Ning Mingrui and Ning Feiliu had grown up together since childhood, and the two brothers were very familiar with each other.

If it were someone else impersonating Ning Feiliu, they could easily be tested by asking a few childhood anecdotes.

After all, the Douluo Continent, as a fantasy sewer, did not have the ability to probe others' memories or extract memory fragments.

Not to mention anything else, just based on the original plot where Shi Nian, as a Spirit Control type Soul Saint, could only create illusions for Tang San and could not pry into what Tang San's current illusion was, it was enough to prove that probing memories was not a conventional method for Spirit Masters in the Douluo Continent.

Only the Haihuan Douluo in the original plot clearly used the ability to probe memories to create illusions, which messed with Tang San, making Tang San want to kill the Haihuan Douluo directly even when he knew it was an illusion.

But only a Spirit Master at the Title Douluo level could achieve the level of probing others' memories, which basically meant that probing memories was not a common, conventional method in the Douluo Continent.

At least in Ning Fengzhi's knowledge, no one could do this.

As for Qian Renxue in the original plot being able to impersonate Xue Qinghe, the main reason was that she was sent into the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace to replace him when she was very young, which was why she was not discovered.

But Ning Feiliu was different; he had grown up with Ning Mingrui and his other brothers until he was twelve, so a sudden replacement would definitely be noticeable.

And although Ning Feiliu had transmigrated, he had also merged with the original owner's spirit and memories.

Or rather, this was actually a kind of spirit fusion with Ning Feiliu's spirit as the main body.

So in this situation, even Ning Mingrui had confirmed Ning Feiliu's identity, so there would basically be no fakes.

Moreover, Ning Fengzhi and the Sword Douluo also very much hoped that Ning Feiliu was a direct-line disciple of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, as that would mean their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had produced a peerless prodigy!

Ning Fengzhi looked closely at Ning Feiliu on the Douhun Platform, only to find him looking up and glancing around indifferently.

"Let's go! Let's go see Feiliu!" Ning Fengzhi said happily at once, "Sigh, you two children, why didn't you tell Father about this earlier? You kept it hidden for so long."

Then he turned around quickly and walked down in a hurry.

Seeing this, the Sword Douluo and Ning Mingrui also hurriedly followed.

It was just that... they seemed to have forgotten Ning Rongrong, who was still sitting on the sofa. At this moment, seeing Ning Fengzhi, the Sword Douluo, and the others all walking directly toward the bottom of the Douhun Platform while forgetting only her, her disbelief toward Ning Feiliu turned into sadness and heartbreak.

It seemed that... she had been completely ignored.

Why was it like this... why...

Clearly, she was the eldest young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she was... the apple of her father's and grandfather's eyes...

She could not help but feel a surge of sorrow, but she still got up, bit her lip, and hurriedly followed the departing Ning Fengzhi, the Sword Douluo, and the others.

"Father... Grandfather... wait for me..."

On the Douhun Platform.

Ning Feiliu revealed his handsome true face, but the audience present, and even the members of the Moon Emperor Team, did not recognize his true identity.

Even Salas, after seeing his true face, only had a painter record it.

After all... the original owner was only considered a minor transparent figure within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and among the many nobles in Heaven Dou City, few had any impression of him.

Not to mention that as the son of Ning Fengzhi, the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, it was impossible for no one to know him.

However, in fact, even if you are the emperor's son, if you have no ability and no real power in your hands, you will not be remembered by many people.

For example, of the many sons of Kangxi in Ning Feiliu's previous life, except for the few involved in the Nine-Son Succession Struggle, can you remember any of the others? Even for Ning Fengzhi's sons, Ning Fengzhi usually brought Ning Rongrong with him, and occasionally his eldest brother Ning Mingrui and second brother Ning Shouzong.

Ning Feiliu and the other younger brothers were basically ignored, and they didn't even have the opportunity to show their faces, so of course, no one recognized them.

It was just that Yu Tianheng and the others obviously knew Ning Feiliu now. Oslo even laughed a few times, "Yafei, you don't look any worse than me..."

"Oslo, get lost, you can compare yourself to Yafei?" Yufeng immediately retorted, "Yafei, why have you been hiding this face of yours? If you had shown it earlier, wouldn't you have charmed a group of women?"

"Feiliu..." Dugu Yan said to Ning Feiliu somewhat nervously at this moment, "Uncle is up there."

"Sister Yan... I know." Ning Feiliu took a deep breath and said, "I don't need to hide anymore."

"Feiliu?" Yu Tianheng and the others also vaguely guessed that this was the real name of "Yafei".

"Feiliu!" At this moment, the figures of Ning Fengzhi, the Sword Douluo, and Ning Mingrui appeared under the Douhun Platform. Ning Rongrong had also just run down in a hurry, even appearing slightly out of breath.

"Everyone, sorry, let's talk later," Ning Feiliu said to Yu Tianheng and the others.

Yu Tianheng and the others were stunned for a moment, then looked at Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo, who were walking over with joyful expressions, and had no choice but to nod and say, "Alright... Ya... Yafei, we will see you tomorrow."

They then left this place directly.

Only...

"Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect... Could it be that Yafei has a connection to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Is that why he hid his appearance? But he doesn't look like someone who has a grudge against the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect either..." Yu Tianxin couldn't help but mutter as he walked away.

No matter how he thought about it, he could never have imagined that Ning Feiliu, a Battle Soul Master who had not displayed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul, would be a direct descendant of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and even Ning Fengzhi's own biological son.

"Let's not worry about that for now... I'm afraid Yafei's identity is not that simple." Yu Tianheng also said as much.

However, the fact that Yafei has a connection to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect... will definitely cause a major change in the situation of the Douluo Continent from here on out...

After Yu Tianheng and the others left, Ning Feiliu, along with Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and others, also slowly walked down from the Douhun Platform and headed toward Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and the rest.

"Father." Ning Feiliu looked at Ning Fengzhi and called out coldly.

"Feiliu... what exactly is going on with you?" Ning Fengzhi asked with a smile, "Although I have learned a little about your situation from your eldest brother, I still want to ask you... let's find a place to talk."

Ning Feiliu shook his head and said, "Father, we can just make it clear right here."

"Nine Treasures turn out the glaze." He actually summoned his Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the origin of his martial soul, directly; as the pagoda spun, it glowed with brilliant treasure light, and amidst the shimmering radiance, moonlight surged.

When Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo saw the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, their moods became agitated.

Ning Rongrong, on the other hand, had an inexplicably complex look on her petite face; she hadn't expected... that Ning Feiliu, this good-for-nothing San Ge, would suddenly transform into a peerless genius, with his martial soul even evolving into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

"This... there is absolutely no mistake, it is the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda! It is the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!" Sword Douluo said excitedly after counting the levels of the pagoda over and over again.

Then he immediately became vigilant, and a sharp sword Qi capable of severing all things appeared faintly on his body, spreading to the surroundings; it seemed that if there were any disturbance nearby, he would hack that person into a thousand pieces.

Ning Feiliu, whose martial soul had evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, was the absolute future core of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect; whoever dared to touch Ning Feiliu would face the wrath of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!

At this moment, although Sword Douluo did not value Ning Feiliu very much before, he now had to value and protect Ning Feiliu for the sake of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

After all, although he doted on Ning Rongrong very much, he was not just Ning Rongrong's Sword Douluo; he was the Supreme Elder of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!

After all, he did not join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect because of Ning Rongrong, but because he was born in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and grew up in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and only then came to regard Ning Rongrong as his own granddaughter.

The rise and prosperity of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was the key, though he did dote on Ning Rongrong as well.

Bone Douluo was even more so; he was slightly different from Sword Douluo, as Sword Douluo had joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect because of his father, while he was born in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and grew up in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Bone Douluo was discovered by the previous Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and brought back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to be cultivated, so his feelings for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were even deeper.

It was just like how Zhuge Liang became the Chancellor of Shu Han after Liu Bei visited his thatched cottage three times, and thus came to cherish Liu Shan all the more.

Liu Shan was certainly important, but Jiang Boyue, who might have revived the Han Dynasty three times, was even more important! Moreover, Ning Feiliu was not Jiang Wei; he was a great talent whose identity as Liu Bei's biological prince was confirmed.

If such a person really existed, would you say the Chancellor should protect him and push him to become the Emperor of Shu Han, or ignore him and even speak harshly to him because of Liu Shan?

Ning Feiliu then summoned the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon, "Black Night Silent Illumination, Moonlight Fills the Sky."

Two beams of moonlight surged from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and transformed in his hands into the two Crescent Moon Divine Weapons, Zhui Ming and Ying Yan.

This naturally proved that his Crescent Moon Divine Weapon came from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, proving his identity.

Seeing this scene, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo were very excited again.

Only Ning Rongrong's face turned even paler; she felt a sense of fear in her heart that Ning Feiliu would... likely replace her position of being pampered in every possible way in the future.

Ning Feiliu then retracted his martial soul and said to Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo, "Father, Jian Yeye, I know what you are thinking. In fact, my martial soul was obtained from a secret transmission in an ancient book. By consuming three extremely rare Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures—the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, the Blazing Apricot Delicate, and the Qiluo Tulip—along with the secret Crescent Divine Weapon Forging Method, I risked my life to evolve my martial soul into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda while also forging the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon as a means of slaughter."

"It's just that these three Immortal Herbs cannot grow without a treasure land where spiritual energy gathers, and even in a treasure land where spiritual energy gathers, it takes thousands or even tens of thousands of years for one to grow." He shook his head and said, "And the three Immortal Herbs that my teacher gave me were unique; after I consumed them, there were no more of these three Immortal Herbs left to grow."

Originally, upon hearing the first half of Ning Feiliu's words, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo were both somewhat excited.

But upon hearing the second half, they sighed slightly.

However, it was true that if such Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures that could defy the heavens and change one's fate could be obtained easily, that would be wishful thinking.

These three Immortal Herbs were definitely ten thousand times more precious than the Mysterious Water Pill, so it was understandable that their growth conditions and growth time were harsh.

However... no matter what, they had Ning Feiliu now! And just at this moment, Ning Feiliu said, "However..."

Seeing some brothers say there is only one chapter a day... I want to say, although there is only one chapter, they are all four thousand words!

Sometimes I write about five thousand words and I don't even mark it.

The difference between two chapters of four thousand words and one chapter of four thousand words, in my view, is just the difference in whether the plot can be a bit more coherent.

Writing two chapters is actually no different from writing one. As for the issue of fewer updates, I can only say that I am not a full-time author, my grades are not good, and I have had a lot of trouble lately.

Writing a chapter after coming home from work every day is equivalent to working overtime, and sometimes I write after I have already finished working overtime, so my brain is a bit muddled and I can't think clearly about how to write the next part, so it was a bit watered down.

However, I have finished the part where I was stuck, and the follow-up should be smoother; I will write about leaving Heaven Dou City to gain experience, and then go to bump into San Ge a few years later.
