Chapter 45

Qu Lingfeng's voice carried a hint of hoarseness, yet his tone was utterly sincere as he said, "Brother Ning Chuan's divine abilities are vast, his strength truly extraordinary. I, Qu, am thoroughly impressed! If not for Brother Ning Chuan turning the tide today, my fellow disciples and I would likely have fallen victim to those two beasts' cruelty, and little junior sister Rong'er would be in mortal peril. The decades of foundation built by Taohuadao might have been destroyed in an instant! Such a great kindness is as good as giving us new life — we shall never forget it for all eternity!"

Lu Chengfeng also said with a solemn expression, "Brother Ning Chuan not only saved Rong'er, but saved all our lives and preserved Taohuadao's reputation! This debt of gratitude is as heavy as Mount Tai! Should Brother Ning Chuan have any need in the future, I, Lu Chengfeng, would go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Wu Mianfeng scratched his head, a bit embarrassed, and said, "Brother Ning Chuan, I'm clumsy with words and don't know how to say anything nice. But this kindness, I, Wu Mianfeng, have taken it to heart! From now on, if anyone dares to disrespect Brother Ning Chuan, I will be the first to refuse!"

Feng Mofeng also said solemnly, "Brother Ning Chuan's kindness is like the sun and moon. Although my Wu Gong is humble, I am also willing to serve Brother Ning Chuan with the loyalty of a dog and horse, to repay today's life-saving grace!"

Their reverence and gratitude toward Ning Chuan at this moment had reached their absolute peak.

This mysterious black serpent not only possessed heaven-reaching spiritual intelligence, but its strength was unfathomably deep!

At their most desperate moment, it was Ning Chuan who stepped forward, and with the force of Lei Tingwanjun, reversed the very heavens and earth!

How could they fail to engrave this kindness deep within their hearts?

Huang Rong could no longer contain the excitement and adoration in her heart.

She let out a cheer, and like a fledgling swallow returning to the grove, threw herself straight onto Ning Chuan, tightly hugging that enormous serpent head, her little face nuzzling back and forth against his scales, refusing to let go.

"Brother Chuan! You're amazing! I just knew you were the best!"

The girl's clear, melodious voice brimmed with heartfelt joy and reliance.

In her heart, Ning Chuan's image had been elevated without limit — like a deity, all-powerful, the most trustworthy reliance she had.
