She Once Died for Love of You

After leaving the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Su Cheng immediately went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Heaven Dou City.

Holding the token Ning Fengzhi, he easily entered the sect.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is no different from what it was half a year ago.

It still features green bricks and tiles, carved beams and painted pillars, and looks very grand.

Its magnificence is comparable to that of the Star Luo Imperial Palace.

Looking around at the familiar scenery, Su Cheng kept walking and soon reached the top of the mountain.

Although there were occasional sect disciples who questioned and tried to stop them along the way, they all readily let them pass after seeing the token.

Some of them recognized Su Cheng and even knew that he had now joined the Spirit Hall.

However, the inside story was clearly beyond the understanding of ordinary disciples.

They didn't even know much about the ambiguous relationship between the sects and the Spirit Hall.

Naturally, he wouldn't be embarrassed by this, but simply remarked on his current achievements.

They arrived at the Council Hall in the heart of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School.

With a quick sense, Su Cheng realized that Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Sect Master Ning Fengzhi were all inside.

Ning Rongrong was not among them at the moment; it was unclear where she had gone.

Seeing this, he also released his own aura and then stepped forward to knock on the door of the main hall.

A moment later, the door opened, and Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin walked out together, their expressions a mixture of surprise and joy.

"Cheng'er, what brings you here?"

"Xiao Cheng, it's been a long time."

"Greetings, Sect Master. Greetings, Teacher." Su Cheng bowed slightly in greeting.

He then smiled and said, "I had some free time, so I thought I'd come and see you all."

"Haha, you're so thoughtful. Come in and talk."

Amidst laughter and conversation, Ning Fengzhi led him into the hall.

At that moment, another elderly man with a broad frame and a withered face was sitting comfortably in a chair, drinking tea.

Seeing Su Cheng enter the room, Bone Douluo Gu Rong glanced at him, but snorted coldly and didn't move an inch.

When Su Cheng led his team to Spirit City to participate in the Spirit Master Competition finals, Gu Rong was not present; instead, she was guarding the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Therefore, it wasn't until Ning Fengzhi and the others returned to their sect that they learned of his decision to join the Spirit Hall.

Gu Rong was very unhappy with his actions.

In addition, Ning Rongrong had been somewhat depressed ever since Su Cheng left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which made him even more unhappy.

Su Cheng didn't take it to heart and greeted him as usual.

Seeing this, Chen Xin felt helpless and looked him up and down before asking, "Cheng'er, have you already advanced to Soul Emperor?"

Although I was trying to change the subject, I was genuinely surprised.

Not only was the time short, but the aura emanating from that person was also ambiguous, far beyond what an ordinary Soul Emperor could match.

The depth of his foundation was so profound that even he couldn't quite fathom it.

"I just broke through by sheer luck." Su Cheng nodded with a smile.

Ning Fengzhi was somewhat taken aback when he heard their conversation, but he was already used to his many unexpected achievements.

So he asked with concern, "Have you gotten used to life at the Spirit Hall these past few months?"

"Not bad, the Spirit Hall values me quite a bit."

At this point, Su Cheng took out a token from his pocket and placed it on the table in front of them.

The moment they saw the token, the three of them, including Gu Rong, widened their eyes in unison.

The token on the table consists of six symbols: a sword, a hammer, a crown, an incomplete human figure, a dragon, and a chrysanthemum.

"This, this is—"

Upon hearing this, Su Cheng smiled and said, "Elder Token, Sect Master, don't you have one too?"

"... Who gave it to you?" Ning Fengzhi stared at him blankly.

"This is mine."

Su Cheng didn't stand on ceremony. He stood up, walked to the side, took the teapot, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it.

"Yours?!" Ning Fengzhi was somewhat incredulous.

"Heh." Gu Rong chuckled, his earlier shock vanishing. "You're quite the braggart."

The initial surprise stemmed from the fact that Su Cheng had become an elder of the Spirit Hall.

But upon reflection, it became clear that it was absolutely impossible.

There is no precedent for this in terms of age, status, cultivation, or any other aspect.

Looking back now, it was probably an elder who valued Su Cheng and lent him the opportunity to demonstrate his identity.

"You've taken one of the elders of the Spirit Hall as your master?" Ning Fengzhi asked tentatively in a low voice, his expression somewhat complicated.

"I only have one teacher," Su Cheng said calmly, taking a sip of tea.

Seeing that the others were still skeptical, he stopped keeping them in suspense and took out a manuscript from his Soul Tool, handing it to Chen Xin. "The reason I was able to become an elder is because of this."

Chen Xin reached out and took it with a puzzled look, then began to read it.

The further he looked, the more shocked he became.

After reading it all, he let out a long sigh.

For a moment, I seemed at a loss for words.

Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi, who was sitting next to them, was also surprised and looked at Chen Xin and Su Cheng with a questioning gaze.

Su Cheng nodded. "Sect Master and Senior Bone can see for themselves. Since I've brought it out, I never intended to keep it to myself."

"..."

After the other two finished reading, they both fell silent.

After a long while, Gu Rong finally let out a long breath and sighed, "Innate Skill... What an Innate Skill..."

He looked at Su Cheng with a complicated expression, "You... sigh..."

At this point, even he could no longer put on that sour face.

In fact, for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, this technique is of even greater significance.

As a sect that focuses on support-type Soul Master, the lack of combat power among its core disciples has always been its biggest weakness.

While this Innate Skill cannot completely change their own position, it has made their situation vastly different from the past for Soul Master who possess the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul.

After practicing this technique, they will have the opportunity to efficiently improve their physical fitness, and their self-defense capabilities will be greatly enhanced.

"Sect Master, Teacher, I hope you will keep this technique a secret for the time being. Even for core disciples, it is best to pass it on only to those you trust."

"No problem." Ning Fengzhi solemnly.

Although he didn't know what Su Cheng was thinking, he wasn't stupid and had no intention of making the other party resentful for the sake of short-term gains.

Compared to this astonishing martial arts technique, Su Cheng himself is the one who deserves the most attention.

Ning Fengzhi gently stroked the manuscript in his hand, a storm raged within him.

Every time he raised his expectations and perceptions of the boy in front of him, the boy would always manage to do something illogical again.

However, besides that, he also had some worries.

The Spirit Hall was so powerful that it inspired despair.

Having acquired this skill, who knows what kind of ambition will arise...

After finishing a few cups of tea, Su Cheng stood up and said with a smile, "Sect Master, Teacher, Senior Gu, I won't stay here any longer. I came here today mainly to deliver this cultivation technique to you and to pay my respects. There's nothing else to do."

Ning Fengzhi was taken aback upon hearing this, and quickly put down his cultivation technique, advising, "Xiao Cheng, why don't you stay a few more days? Ning Rongrong left the sect a month ago to see your former teammates. With Yao Lian and Zou Jin taking care of her, she should be on her way back now. She'll be very happy if she knows you're back."

The two people he mentioned, Yao Lian and Zou Jin, were Soul Saint experts within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Traveling with Ning Rongrong serves both as protection and supervision, preventing her from staying outside for too long.

After thinking for a moment, Su Cheng shook his head and said, "I will definitely return to the sect in the future. Let's wait for the next opportunity. Please give my regards to Ning Rongrong."

He's been very busy lately, and he doesn't know when Ning Rongrong will return to the sect, so it's really not good to delay.

Moreover, if they were to meet again, it might not be a good thing. It could affect Ning Rongrong's state of mind, causing her hard-won calm to be disrupted again, thus impacting her cultivation.

There's really no need for that.

What I just said was not an excuse; there will definitely be many more opportunities to come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in the future.

Bibi Dong is ambitious.

Since she intends to establish her presence on the mainland, the Upper Three Sects are definitely thorns in her side.

However, with her joining the team, and considering Su Cheng's current status and contributions, she will likely take some consideration into account.

Moreover, it's always better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

With Su Cheng as the pivot, Bibi Dong may not be so determined to destroy the Upper Three Sects.

Given this, they will most likely ask me to come and communicate with them in the future.

Moreover, even without such matters, it is very convenient for High-level Spirit Master to travel between each other, and it doesn't take too long.

Seeing Su Cheng's resolute expression, Ning Fengzhi hesitated for a moment but then stopped trying to persuade him and immediately got up to see him off.

Besides him, the other two Titled Douluo also stood up, including Gu Rong.

Seeing this, Su Cheng quickly dissuaded him, saying, "There's no need for that, I can just leave."

"Let's go out together." Ning Fengzhi stepped forward and took his arm, preventing him from refusing again.

Just then, Chen Xin suddenly spoke.

"Fengzhi, old bones, you two stay here. I'll see Cheng'er off myself."

Ning Fengzhi was surprised to hear this and turned to look at him.

But then he saw the other person wink at him.

He didn't insist any further and said with a smile, "In that case, you two can spend some time alone."

Su Cheng was puzzled, but he didn't show it. He and Chen Xin walked out the door together and headed down the mountain.

"Cheng'er, actually, there's something I wanted to tell you when I sent you out alone." Chen Xin's usually solemn and upright face showed some hesitation at this moment.

"What's wrong, teacher? Just say what's on your mind." Seeing his expression, Su Cheng was even more puzzled.

In my memory, the other party rarely behaves like this.

"Sigh." Chen Xin sighed. "I also have some selfish motives. I always wanted to bring you and Ning Rongrong together, so there's something I didn't tell you in detail before. But you're so open about even this kind of cultivation technique, which makes me, as your teacher, feel ashamed."

"..." Su Cheng was slightly taken aback, but did not speak, quietly waiting for the other party to continue.

"Cheng'er, do you remember when I told you that I seemed to have some impression of you before we even met?"

"Remember."

"Since you value that Qian Family successor from the Spirit Hall so much, I guess you might have some related memories. I don't know exactly how much you remember, but there's one thing that I remember very well. When it happened, you were already dead in my arms."

"..." Su Cheng didn't speak, his heart suddenly beating a little fast.

"After you died, the woman who became Angel God also chose to end her own life and go with you."

Even after unknowingly walking several miles beyond the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School's mountain gate, Su Cheng still found it difficult to calm down.

He never expected, nor did he ever imagine, that such a thing would happen after he finished his mission and left the world.

No wonder, no wonder the settlement reward was so much higher than expected.

"Why did it have to come to this..."

"Su Cheng?"

Just then, a soft female voice came from behind Su Cheng.

What's terrifying is that, before the other party spoke, he didn't notice anything at all, despite his cultivation level and perception.

He was startled, but his face remained expressionless.

He turned around and looked at the stunningly beautiful woman who looked to be no more than twenty years old, with blue hair, blue eyes, and dressed in red.

Feigning surprise, he asked, "Are you calling me?"

Thank you so much to the generous patron "Yuan Pingsheng Zhuguang Chuangying Bu Yan" for the generous donation! You are the first patron of this book, and I am very grateful for your recognition!

I'll try my best to update more chapters. I remember I still owe two chapters, which I'll make up for in a couple of days. I'm currently working on the detailed outline. Transitional plots are a bit difficult to write; there are many things to consider. I hope you readers can understand!
