Chapter 85: Illusion (Please subscribe to the first chapter!)

"Many thanks, Fengzhi."

A voice carrying a faint smile came from beside Ning Fengzhi's ear.

Ning Fengzhi immediately pulled Ning Rongrong to a stop, turned around with a faint smile, and looked at Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo was smiling as he looked at him, accompanied by Ning Feiliu, who was still wearing a mask, and Dugu Yan.

He could sense the clear goodwill currently radiating from Dugu Bo and immediately felt that giving up that ten thousand year soul bone for this was quite worth it.

Only Ning Rongrong felt quite dissatisfied.

Ning Fengzhi had only brought her here to bid on two or three items this time.

But in her view, given their family's financial resources, everything in this auction house should have been theirs.

Especially since, for the sake of this old codger before them, Dad had actually given up that precious soul bone.

"Mr. Dugu, congratulations on obtaining the treasure you desired." Ning Fengzhi also chuckled and offered his congratulations.

It is estimated that Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others would take a long time to realize that Ning Rongrong was actually such a mischievous little witch.

"This must be Mr. Dugu's apple of his eye." Ning Fengzhi looked at Dugu Yan with polite formality at this moment, but his gaze shifted to the masked Ning Feiliu.

Thus, Ning Fengzhi actually failed to recognize the current Ning Feiliu.

Perhaps he had not seen Ning Feiliu for over half a year.

"Yes." Ning Fengzhi smiled and nodded, saying, "This is indeed my youngest daughter—Ning Rongrong. Rongrong, why don't you hurry and greet Grandpa Dugu?"

Dugu Yan was also looking at Ning Rongrong, this biological younger sister of Ning Feiliu, with great joy at this moment; she did not know about the conflict between Ning Rongrong and Ning Feiliu.

In the original plot, the little witch side of Ning Rongrong was not revealed from the very beginning either.

Upon hearing what Ning Fengzhi said, Ning Rongrong, to Ning Feiliu's surprise, revealed a cute and sweet smile.

It was only later, because she was dissatisfied with Flender's training method for support spirit masters, that she exposed her truest side.

But these were all things that could only be known within their Ning family.

Ning Feiliu was quite surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he shook his head.

Plus, Ning Feiliu practiced the Moonlight Breathing Method, and his body had been forged into a streamlined, muscular physique; he had grown taller and much stronger.

Out of love for him, she liked this cute younger sister very much.

Even if Dugu Bo was a Title Douluo, a figure standing at the pinnacle of this Douluo Dalu, it was difficult for him to know this matter.

"Grandpa Dugu, Rongrong says hello to you~~"

Regardless of whether it was the reason Ning Rongrong had caused the death of the original host, or because her own personality was unlikable, she had also had conflicts with Ning Feiliu.

But his benefactor teacher probably did not know that his relationship with Ning Rongrong was not very good.

"This must be that beloved daughter whom Sect Master Ning values the most." He said with profound meaning.

Ning Feiliu, who was on the side, felt secretly helpless; it was clear that Dugu Bo's words also contained a question for him—"Is this your sister?"

Dugu Bo stroked his beard and smiled, but he was looking at Ning Rongrong.

"Good, good, good." Dugu Bo smiled and nodded.

However, he still felt a bit strange; how... did it feel like this person was somewhat familiar?

"Yes, this is my own granddaughter. Yanyan, why don't you hurry and call Uncle Ning." Dugu Bo first introduced Dugu Yan with a smile, but his smile was meaningful.

Dugu Yan's pretty face flushed red; facing Ning Fengzhi, she called out delicately, "Hello, Uncle Ning."

Facing Ning Feiliu's biological father, she felt the shyness of meeting a future father-in-law.

"Good, Yanyan has truly grown up to be beautiful, and her talent is also extraordinary; she broke through to become a Soul Ancestor before the age of 14." Ning Fengzhi smiled and praised her sincerely.

Not long ago, the news that Dugu Yan had broken through to the Soul Ancestor level and become the youngest Soul Ancestor had already spread throughout all of Heaven Dou City.

Such talent was indeed worth looking at with high regard.

"Hahaha, I dare not accept such praise, I dare not. Fengzhi, you are the one with the good fortune." Dugu Bo said something that left Ning Fengzhi somewhat confused.

But soon he smiled and seemingly changed the subject, looking at Ning Feiliu beside him, and said with some profound meaning, "Fengzhi, this is my newly accepted student... Yafei. I hope you will look after him in the future."

"Mr. Dugu's student, Yafei..." Ning Fengzhi was slightly stunned, then looked at the masked Ning Feiliu with a smile and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Dugu for finding such a talented student... Congratulations."

"Hahahaha, then many thanks to you, Fengzhi." Dugu Bo said with a laugh again.

Ning Feiliu was somewhat helpless; why did this teacher of his always like to make such hints?

It was just that Ning Fengzhi seemed unable to hear anything unusual, smiling and echoing from the side, then saying, "How about Mr. Dugu comes to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to drink some light tea when you have some free time another day?"

Seeing that he was having a pleasant conversation with Dugu Bo, he intended to win Dugu Bo over.

If he could really win over another Title Douluo in the future—even if this Title Douluo was far less powerful than Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, he was still a Title Douluo.

Then at that time, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could even contend for the title of the number one sect on the Douluo Dalu.

After all, no one is willing to be the runner-up forever.

If the Clear Sky Sect could sit on the throne of the number one sect on the Douluo Dalu, why couldn't his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?

Dugu Bo said with profound meaning again, "Certainly! There will definitely be an opportunity to visit your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in the future! But it is not convenient for me right now, so I will take my leave first."

"Then I won't disturb Mr. Dugu any further. Mr. Dugu, please walk slowly." Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.

"Fengzhi, see you another day." Dugu Bo said goodbye with a smile.

Then he left with Ning Feiliu and Dugu Yan.

It was just that Ning Fengzhi still looked at Ning Feiliu's back as he followed Dugu Bo away with some curiosity.

"Why is there such a familiar feeling..." He shook his head, only taking it as an illusion, and said, "However, the Poison Douluo's student... Dugu Bo has roamed the Douluo Dalu for many years; this is the first time I've heard of him taking a student. This person must have exceptional qualities; I must pay attention to him."

After leaving the Heaven Dou Great Auction House, Ning Feiliu shook his head, but still did not take off his mask.

From now on, he could not walk with Dugu Bo with his true face at will.

In this way, anyone could guess that he, Ning Feiliu, was that Yafei.

He would need to find a place to take off his mask after separating from Dugu Bo in the future.

"You brat, hiding like this isn't really a solution, is it?" Just then, Dugu Bo looked at Ning Feiliu and said helplessly.

"Yeah, little Feiliu, why don't you tell your father your true identity now?" Dugu Yan also asked curiously.

She was not afraid of others hearing this and finding out Ning Feiliu's true identity.

However, with Dugu Bo here, no one dared to get too close.

"Perhaps it is because, in my heart, Father is not worthy of trust," Ning Feiliu said softly.
