If Qian Daoliu was not allowed in... the trouble would probably be even greater. Ning Fengzhi solemnly asked the gate disciple who had come with Qian Daoliu. "I remember there was also a fierce-looking, powerfully built man." Ning Fengzhi's heart sank halfway. A fierce-looking, powerfully built man could only be Golden Crocodile Douluo or Mighty Lion Douluo, and neither was someone to provoke. "Sect Master, there is also a child." A child? Ning Fengzhi was suddenly bewildered. Qian Daoliu had... brought a child... to pick a fight? He could not make sense of it, but he still had the gate disciple lead Qian Daoliu's group to the waiting area first, while sending someone to summon the two sect-protecting elders.
Qian Daoliu and the other two were led into a lavish room. Mu Yu inwardly sighed. As expected of the richest Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!
Ning Fengzhi arrived outside the room and consoled himself. Ning Fengzhi, you can do this. Qian Daoliu brought a child, so he is not here to cause trouble. He then forced on a smile. Once Chen Xin and Gu Rong arrived, Ning Fengzhi trudged forward and opened the door.
Seeing the three people inside, he cautiously asked, "May I ask... what brings the Great Enshrined to our sect?" Qian Daoliu smiled kindly at the tense Ning Fengzhi and the others. "Nephew Fengzhi, it has been a long time." Ning Fengzhi forced a smile in return and gave an awkward laugh. "Indeed, Senior, it has been a long time."
Seemingly noticing Ning Fengzhi's tension, Mu Yu gently tugged Qian Daoliu's sleeve, signaling him to get to the point. "Ahem, Nephew Fengzhi, I have come today for my little granddaughter." Only then did Ning Fengzhi and the others turn their attention to the delicate-looking little girl behind Qian Daoliu. But if he remembered correctly, Qian Daoliu's granddaughter should not be... Qian Daoliu saw his confusion and explained, "This is a granddaughter I acknowledged while traveling." As he spoke, he pushed Mu Yu forward. "Greetings, Sect Master Ning. My name is Qian Mu Yu." Ning Fengzhi nodded. As long as they were not here to cause trouble. "May I ask what Miss Qian has come to our sect for?" "I want to take a master." Take a master? Ning Fengzhi froze. Whom did she want to acknowledge? Even the Sword and Bone Douluos behind him looked utterly confused.
Qian Daoliu smiled. "Xiao Yu wishes to take Bone Douluo as her master." Gu Rong's body stiffened. When had such a good thing as taking a disciple ever fallen into his lap? And this person was the Second Miss of the Qian family! Her grandfather had personally brought her here to find him! Gu Rong looked the girl over again, finding her more and more pleasing the longer he looked. Still, he asked symbolically, "May I ask what martial soul Second Miss Qian possesses?"
Qian Daoliu instantly perked up. Talking about his granddaughter's martial soul? He would never grow tired of that! "Which one would the two of you like to see first?" Qian Daoliu asked on Mu Yu's behalf.
Which one? All three of them were stunned, though Ning Fengzhi was the first to react. "Second Miss Qian... has twin martial souls...?" Qian Daoliu nodded proudly. "Xiao Yu, show Uncle Ning and the two seniors your first martial soul." Watching her grandfather flaunt her without restraint, Mu Yu helplessly summoned her martial soul and explained, "My first martial soul is the Thousand Silk Puppet." Ning Fengzhi and the other two were knowledgeable people and recognized it as an ancient martial soul, leaving them greatly shocked. When they saw the two black soul rings around Mu Yu, they were even more astonished. "Second Miss Qian, your rank and soul rings..." Mu Yu smiled faintly. "I am currently level twenty-five. You saw correctly; they are both ten-thousand-year soul rings." The three were stunned, and Gu Rong praised her without end. However, Ning Fengzhi was somewhat puzzled. "Second Miss Qian's first martial soul is a support-type martial soul. The reason you wish to take Uncle Bone as your master should be because of your second martial soul, correct?" Mu Yu nodded. The black soul rings around her remained unchanged, but a purple beastly shadow appeared behind her, and her eyes turned dark purple. "This is my second martial soul, the Nightmare Beast." The three were confused again. "Second Miss Qian, forgive Ning for his ignorance, but I have never heard of this martial soul." Before Mu Yu could speak, Qian Daoliu answered first, "It is a God-Bestowed Martial Soul." "God-bestowed!?" the three repeated in unison. "That is right. Xiao Yu is the inheritor of the God of Space and is currently undertaking a God Trial." Chen Xin was even more excited than Gu Rong, the person concerned, repeatedly hinting for Gu Rong to accept her quickly. Ning Fengzhi handed the choice to Gu Rong. Gu Rong did not hesitate and immediately agreed. First, he had already taken a great liking to Mu Yu. Second, they now knew her secret. If he refused... it was not impossible that Qian Daoliu would silence them.
Upon hearing Gu Rong agree, Mu Yu immediately bowed. "Mu Yu greets Master!"
After discussing everything with Ning Fengzhi, they decided to have Mu Yu remain at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to cultivate while waiting for the next God Trial to descend.
After Qian Daoliu left, Ning Fengzhi introduced the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to Mu Yu. "Xiao Yu, may I call you that?" Once Qian Daoliu had left, Ning Fengzhi's mood greatly improved. Since this child had already been recognized by a god, she would surely lead Spirit Hall to glory. Now that Mu Yu was Uncle Bone's disciple, the fate of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect might become tied to Spirit Hall's from this point onward. Mu Yu nodded. "From now on, call me Uncle Ning, and call Uncle Jian Grandpa Jian." "Uncle Ning, Grandpa Jian."
Having just finished their business, they saw a female disciple approaching with a baby who had been crying nonstop in her arms. "Sect Master! Elders! Rongrong is crying again. Nothing can soothe her!" Ning Fengzhi took the child from the female disciple and helplessly introduced her to Mu Yu. "This is my daughter, Ning Rongrong." Looking at the adorable little one, Mu Yu's heart melted. Oh no, I want to cuddle my little sister! Seeing the longing in Mu Yu's eyes, Ning Fengzhi suggested that she hold Ning Rongrong. Naturally, she agreed. Miraculously, the little girl, who had been crying incessantly just moments before, stopped crying as soon as she entered Mu Yu's arms and even smiled at her. Ning Fengzhi was equally delighted. "Xiao Yu, look, Rongrong likes you very much too. You truly have an affinity with our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!" Mu Yu smiled, but before long, Chen Xin cruelly carried Ning Rongrong away and shot Gu Rong a mocking look.
Gu Rong: ...What did I ever do to you?
"Xiao Yu, come. Return with me first. I'll arrange a place for you to stay." Mu Yu nodded and followed Gu Rong until they arrived before a luxurious courtyard. "Xiao Yu, you will live here from now on. Sect disciples will come by later to tidy up. Take a look around for now, and come find me early tomorrow morning." "Alright, Master." After Gu Rong left, Mu Yu wandered around the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for a while and planned out her schedule for the next few days.
Now that she had the inner core of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent, she could seek out Dugu Bo for a trade. At the very least, she had to obtain the Aromatic Silk Beauty, since it was a fine item that could evolve Rongrong's martial soul. But compared to that, she wanted to find Qian Renxue first. She had missed Sister Xue'er for so long. If she had been able to enter the Heaven Dou Empire's imperial palace, she would have gone long ago. Now that she had Uncle Ning, seeing her sister should not be too difficult.
After resting for an afternoon, she planned to go out and explore Heaven Dou City that evening. Unexpectedly, Ning Fengzhi had the same idea. With Chen Xin following behind him and Ning Rongrong in his arms, he invited Mu Yu to visit Heaven Dou City's night market. Naturally, Mu Yu respectfully accepted and left with Ning Fengzhi.
