Little Witch Ning Rongrong? Kneel Before Me!
"If you want a dose of the potion, sure."
Zhuge Lan named his price—
"But I left in a hurry this time and didn't bring any attendants."
"While we're at Shrek, you'll wash my clothes, dishes, and the like."
"Before you obtain your Third Soul Ring, I guarantee I'll raise your soul ring limit by over 3,000 years."

Oscar's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly!
—This deal was fucking incredible!
"No problem!"
"From today onward, Lan-ge, leave all your needs to me, Oscar!"
"Lan-ge, are you tired?"
"I'll bring you a chair!"
He ran off in a flash.
When he returned,
he had two wooden chairs in his left hand and two cups of tea in his right.
He eagerly invited Zhuge Lan and Zhu Zhuqing to sit and have tea.
Dai Mubai, standing nearby, watched with considerable envy.
Emotional Value +666
That was right!
Envy.
His soul ring limit had increased by 3,000 years for nothing!
One step ahead meant staying ahead at every step.
Just look at how Zhuge Lan, a level 35 Soul Elder, could make the level 37 Dai Mubai wary. It was enough to show how deep his foundations ran.
Dai Mubai was also very tempted by that Secret Recipe.
But.
All the dirty work Zhuge Lan did not want to do had already been taken over by Oscar.
What price could he offer?
Promise a condition, like Zhu Zhuqing had?
Hmm.
He recalled the deal between Zhuge Lan and Flender earlier.
—Gold Soul Coins might be a good idea!
He immediately raised his foot, intending to give it a try.
But unexpectedly,
Ning Rongrong was a step faster and arrived before Zhuge Lan.
She said sweetly, "Classmate Zhuge, how about I buy your formula for 100,000 Gold Soul Coins?"
Note!
She said "buy the formula," not "buy the medicine."
One hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins sounded like a lot, enough to make Tang San and the others stare wide-eyed in shock.
But Zhuge Lan remained unmoved.
How many talents could the Whale Rubber formula cultivate in the hands of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? How much value could it create?
A mere 100,000 Gold Soul Coins was just spare change.
"If you really want the formula, have your father come negotiate with me," Zhuge Lan said casually. "Or Sword Douluo or Bone Douluo will do. There's no need for anyone else."
Dai Mubai and the others did not think anything was wrong with that.
Such a precious Secret Recipe was worth a Titled Douluo or the head of one of the Upper Three Sects coming forward personally.
But.

Zhuge Lan smiled as he looked at the number above Ning Rongrong's head.
Had he said anything mocking?
No.
The Little Witch simply had not gotten what she wanted and was angry.

Oh!
Another hidden gem who had mastered the skill of "the more you think about it, the angrier you get"?
Ning Rongrong was so enraged that she stopped pretending to be a good little girl.
The gentleness vanished from her face, replaced by disdain and lofty arrogance in her eyes.
One hand rested on her waist while the other pointed at Zhuge Lan's nose.
"Kid!"
"I'm offering you 100,000 Gold Soul Coins for your formula because I think highly of you!"
"Do you really think that just because you have some tiny formula, everyone has to beg you for it?"
"You'd better cooperate obediently."
"Otherwise, I'll call my attendants and have them tie you up and take you straight back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
Tang San and Xiao Wu were dumbfounded.
That little girl who had seemed so gentle could actually say such vicious things?
But Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing both wore strange expressions.
Ning Rongrong had mistaken Zhuge Lan for some lucky nobody with no backing.
But after what Zhuge Lan had shown just now,
could he possibly have no backing?
Heh!
Zhuge Lan really did not have anyone backing him.
But he had the system!
System, if Chen Xin and the others show up, can you handle them?
Could you also roll me a wild Titled Douluo?
This system only provides item exchanges. The service of conjuring living people is not currently available!
Then list the items that can kill a Soul Douluo, ones I can afford.
Host may consider the Soul Tool rental service! Host may consider the Soul Tool rental service! Level 8 melee Soul Tool · Floating Sword: 100,000 Emotional Value/minute Level 8 ranged Soul Tool · Eye of Flame: 100,000 Emotional Value/minute Level 8 fixed-installation Soul Tool · All-Terrain Self-Propelled Soul Cannon: 100,000 Emotional Value/minute
Very good!
Zhuge Lan immediately straightened his back.
He summoned his martial soul, the Li Jing Longsword, and lit up his million-year First Soul Ring.
100% Barehanded Blade Catch!
"Whoosh—"
Ning Rongrong, who had been throwing her weight around just a second ago, was kneeling before Zhuge Lan the next second, her hands raised high as they caught the Li Jing Longsword.
Aaaah!
Ning Rongrong struggled, but her body did not move in the slightest.

When had the little princess ever suffered such humiliation?
Her face twisted as she glared at Zhuge Lan.
"Kid!"
"You're dead!"
"I'll mobilize every force in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect! Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, I'll hunt you down and kill you!"
Zhuge Lan looked at the gritting Ning Rongrong as if she were mentally disabled.
"Are you an idiot?"
"You're still under my control, and you're threatening me?"
"If I were some desperado, I'd rape you first, kill you afterward, then run for the ends of the earth."
"Even if I got caught in the end, you'd still be dead, wouldn't you?"

Panic flickered through Ning Rongrong's eyes.
But she quickly calmed down.
"You dare?" Ning Rongrong lifted her chin proudly. "Father definitely sent people to follow me. The moment you make a move, they'll kill you immediately!"
Zhuge Lan sighed.
He rubbed his forehead speechlessly.
He knew Ning Rongrong had a terrible personality, but he had not known she was this stupid.
He knew full well about Ning Rongrong's background, yet he had still attacked without hesitation.
What else could that be if not having something to rely on?
In the eyes of ordinary people,
Zhuge Lan's backing had to be no weaker than Ning Rongrong's.
And yet she—
Ning Rongrong failed to notice the problem and smiled smugly.
Emotional Value +2333
"Scared enough to hold your head, huh?" she said gleefully. "Now release me immediately, then kneel and kowtow until I'm satisfied. Maybe I'll spare you."
Zhuge Lan rolled his eyes and ignored Ning Rongrong.
Emotional Value +4444
"Hey!" Ning Rongrong screamed. "Didn't you hear me? Do you really want to die?"
Zhuge Lan picked at his ear and continued ignoring her.
Emotional Value +4999
"Fine, fine, fine!" Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth. "You want to die, is that it? Someone! Kill this guy for me!"
A gust of wind passed by.
It was dead quiet. Nothing happened.
Emotional Value +5555
Zhuge Lan had expected this.
Although Ning Fengzhi had arranged for people to follow Ning Rongrong when she ran away this time,
he must have instructed them not to show themselves unless her life was in danger, in order to correct all of Ning Rongrong's bad habits.
Not to mention that in those people's eyes, Zhuge Lan's identity was equally mysterious.
If they did not appear, it was merely a conflict between juniors.
But if they appeared and used their status to bully the young,
the people hidden on the other side would surely have to come out as well.
Then it would escalate into a clash between two powers!
So anyone with sense would be best off playing dead right now.
—If any of them lacked sense, then he could only send them to their deaths.
"What are you doing?!"
Flender once again skimmed in low through the air.
"This is the academy! Who allowed you to fight?"
"Zhuge, release Ning Rongrong first!"
He still had to give Flender that much face.
Zhuge Lan put away the Li Jing Longsword.
The first thing Ning Rongrong did after getting up was kick at Zhuge Lan.
Zhuge Lan did not even bother dodging and directly summoned Thorn Armor.
—Come on, hit me!
