Chapter 15: Ning Fengzhi Brings His Daughter to Visit
Yang Yun looked at Ning Rongrong, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and said: "I already expected your visit, so don't beat around the bush; let's talk trade directly."
Facing Yang Yun's direct approach, Ning Fengzhi had some preparation; but he didn't expect it to be this direct.
A moment of surprise quickly turned into a smile as he said: "Sect Master Yang is straightforward; I, Fengzhi, didn't know the Breaking Heaven Sect was newly founded, so this soul tool with a total space of thirty cubic meters is presented as a gift to the Breaking Heaven Sect."
Yang Yun glanced at Yang Wudi and nodded slightly; only then did the latter step forward to receive Ning Fengzhi's gift: "Thank you, Sect Master Ning."
A flicker of surprise flashed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes; he hadn't expected Yang Wudi to be stripped of the clan chief position by Yang Yun, yet he himself had still managed to break through to Title Douluo and achieve this.
It seems Yang Yun's status in the Breaking One Clan is not low, and his methods are extraordinary, winning him great favor.
In his heart, his estimation of Yang Yun's weight rose another notch.
"This is my daughter Ning Rongrong; after she entered Shrek Academy, a woman found her and told her these words: 'Seven Treasure advances to Nine Treasure, Star Luo seeks Yang Yun.'"
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's shortcomings are not exactly hidden on the continent, but as sect master I, Ning Fengzhi, am unwilling to relinquish any thread that could let the family prosper; therefore I hope Sect Master Yang is not playing games with us."
"That woman, is she someone of Sect Master Yang?"
Yang Yun gave a slight nod and said: "Zhu Zhuqing, I casually rescued her on the road; to repay my kindness she ended up bringing along a sentence."
Ning Fengzhi nodded.
"If the martial soul of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower could compensate for the martial soul's deficiency and advance to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower, one could break through to Soul Sage or even Title Douluo; this is of utmost importance to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and it is also Sect Master Ning's lifelong pain."
"I do have a method to advance the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower; I just don't know how much Sect Master Ning can afford to pay," Yang Yun said, his eyes flickering with greed for money.
Ning Rongrong covered her small mouth, unable to hide the excitement in her heart.
But in such an occasion Ning Rongrong still made no sound at all; this is the basic quality of a child from a major sect.
Bone Douluo slightly turned his body to block Ning Rongrong's embarrassing moment.
But he knew clearly, Ning Fengzhi's body trembled ever so slightly; yet it couldn't escape the notice of this close-range Title Douluo.
At this moment Ning Fengzhi's heart was pounding violently, as if it wanted to leap out of his body.
After taking a few deep breaths he gradually calmed down, the fingers gripping his cane already turned white.
"Sect Master Yang, I've heard your sect plans to relocate to the Star Luo Empire? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is willing to bear all construction costs for your sect, and additionally pay ten million gold soul coins."
Yang Yun paused, his gaze deep as he looked at Ning Fengzhi: "I can tell Sect Master Ning in advance, the method is to consume an immortal-grade herb; but I have no proof that consuming it will guarantee the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower can advance to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower."
"Because no one has tried it."
Ning Fengzhi's face instantly sank, his gaze at Yang Yun also becoming several degrees more serious.
"Sect Master Yang, are you not playing games with me, Ning Fengzhi? Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is a supporting sect, it is not something that can be casually toyed with."
Bone Douluo's cloak moved on its own without wind.
An invisible oppressive aura spread out, making Yang Wudi involuntarily rise to his feet and stare fixedly at Bone Douluo.
The corner of Yang Yun's mouth curled into an arc as his eyes fixed on Bone Douluo and Ning Fengzhi.
He said lightly: "Sect Master Ning, how many years has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect not produced a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower? If I were to give you evidence, I truly have evidence—would you still have come looking for me?"
"Frankly, I know the appearance, habits, and growing grounds of that immortal-grade herb inside out; but I cannot guarantee it, and I cannot guarantee it— that place has been claimed by my Breaking Heaven Sect, and I won't tell you where it is."
Ning Fengzhi's hand gripped the cane, veins bulging on the back of his hand.
"Hmph! What knowing the method to advance the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower—I see you're just playing games with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
Bone Douluo's cold voice came from within his cloak: "You brat, let me show you; the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is not something just anyone can push around."
Nine soul rings slowly undulated, emitting boundless pressure.
Yang Yun slowly rose from the main seat, stood upright, his gaze on Bone Douluo as he said slowly: "Senior Elder, please stay and keep watch; Sect Master Ning Fengzhi must not be injured in our sect."
"One family, two Title Douluo, peerless sword bone; let me, Yang Yun, learn a few moves from Bone Douluo." "Yang Yun, martial soul Flame Spear Zhu Rong, ninety-rank strong attack system quasi-Title Douluo, please instruct!"
When eight soul rings appeared from his body, Bone Douluo's aura visibly stagnated; his gaze toward Yang Yun shifted from initial contempt to serious attention.
If I recall correctly, Yang Yun is eighteen years old.
Ninety-rank quasi-Title Douluo, meaning that as long as he obtains a soul ring he can steadily break through to Title Douluo.
At this age, becoming a Super Douluo is merely a matter of time, isn't it?
To show respect, Bone Douluo also shouted loudly: "Bone Douluo Gu Rong, martial soul Bone Dragon; ninety-five rank strong attack system Title Douluo."
"Sect Master Yang, how did you achieve these soul rings? This defies common sense."
One yellow, one purple, five black, one red.
No matter how you look at it, I can't believe this is real.
Down below, Ning Rongrong had long been stunned into silence; she tugged at Ning Fengzhi's hand and whispered: "Dad, didn't you say this sect master is only about eighteen?"
"And those soul rings—could a human really accomplish that? Perhaps even a god's reincarnation would be no more than this."
Ning Fengzhi fixed his gaze on Yang Yun, precisely staring at that bizarre soul ring configuration.
Trying to discern some clue.
But even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Jewel-Identifying Eye cannot see through it, so it's very likely Yang Yun's soul rings are all genuine.
A ten-thousand-year eighth ring—just what kind of heaven-defying monster is this Yang Yun who appeared out of nowhere?
Ning Fengzhi had previously looked over Yang Yun's investigation files, once thinking those were merely rumors; unfounded.
Only after seeing this scene today did he realize that even he had become a frog at the bottom of a well.
A single leaf blocking the view had been obscured by his own years of experience and knowledge.
But one must admit, if this information about Yang Yun weren't witnessed firsthand, it would be very hard to convince people.
Yang Yun remained silent in the face of Gu Rong's questioning.
He wasn't so foolish as to willingly hand over his own information.
His third soul skill, Battle Intent, activated immediately; this is his main reliance for fighting above his rank.
Slaughter God Domain.
As soon as the domain emerged, Gu Rong's face instantly changed as he looked at Yang Yun and said: "You've been to Shalu Zhidu and still walked out alive?"
Yang Yun didn't want to answer such a question where the answer was obvious, like two fools talking to each other.
Isn't this obvious? You've recognized the Killing God Domain, yet you still ask? First soul skill·Pierce, second soul skill·God of War Descends, fifth soul skill·Thousand Jun.
All buff-type soul skills were unleashed; Yang Yun's aura suddenly changed; even Gu Rong had to treat him seriously.
The Bone Battle Spirit had a vague premonition that his proud defensive power might be broken.
Earlier, the Elephant Armor Sect's Huyan Po, though his defensive power could not match his and was not weak, was nonetheless pierced through the body by Yang Yun's spear breaking through his defense.
Finally, he was killed and hung before the door to intimidate others.
The Bone Battle Spirit dared not be negligent; even though he had one more soul ring and five levels higher soul power than Yang Yun, he still had to prepare seriously.
Soul rings lit up one after another, and his defensive power doubled.
These days I'm testing the water, asking for monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, and data for likes and other gifts; these days are very crucial, really the time when data is most needed; every vote and every data point from you is hard to be important; thank you everyone.
