★★★☆ Douluo Continent's 26th Beauty Gentle and virtuous Devoted without regret A hidden menace up her sleeve Beauty with a Tragic Fate ...
Qian Yunxiao went to see Ning Fengzhi's wife.
No matter what, Ning Fengzhi was a major figure on the Douluo Continent.
His wife truly was quite something—an absolute beauty and a genius.
She was currently a level seventy-five Soul Saint, and her martial soul was the high-grade Azure Cloud Sword. She could be considered half a disciple of Sword Douluo.
She was even listed on the Douluo Continent's Beauty Ranking.
Ning Fengzhi was truly blessed!
However, Qian Yunxiao did not think Ning Fengzhi was the sort of man obsessed with women.
It would be a pity for such a beauty.
Moreover, she had not been mentioned in the original work at all. She had probably died after giving birth to her daughter, Ning Rongrong.
"Lady Ning, I never expected you to be the one inviting me. This is truly a great honor."
Ning Fengzhi's wife was also surnamed Ning. Her name was Ning Zhongying.
Ning Zhongying came from an ordinary background, but her talent was quite good. She had a chance of reaching the Soul Douluo rank in the future, and she truly made a perfect match with Ning Fengzhi.
As for becoming a Titled Douluo...
That was far too difficult. There were only a few women on the Douluo Continent who could become Titled Douluos.
Within Spirit Hall, aside from Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong...
Among more than a dozen Titled Douluos, there was only one female Titled Douluo.
"Second Highness, you flatter me. It is our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's honor to be able to host you."
Ning Zhongying was indeed worthy of being the woman who had married Ning Fengzhi. She spoke with impeccable tact.
Qian Yunxiao did not waste any more words and directly followed Ning Zhongying to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
It was perfectly normal for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to send Ning Zhongying to invite Qian Yunxiao.
Only three people in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect held the highest status.
As the sect master, Ning Fengzhi would certainly personally welcome Qian Yunxiao if Qian Yunxiao took the initiative to visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
But having Ning Fengzhi personally invite Qian Yunxiao to a banquet at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would clearly have been inappropriate.
He was the leader of one of the Upper Three Sects, while Qian Yunxiao was merely Spirit Hall's Second Highness.
The same went for Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo.
Thus, it was perfectly normal to send Ning Fengzhi's wife instead.
On the way to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, For some reason, Ning Zhongying kept feeling Qian Yunxiao's gaze upon her.
It seemed to linger over her hips and thighs.
Yet whenever Ning Zhongying secretly looked at Qian Yunxiao, she found that his expression was exceptionally upright and gentlemanly.
Ning Zhongying truly did not know what to make of it.
Was I overthinking it?
Ning Zhongying could only comfort herself this way.
Qian Yunxiao was not worried that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would try to set up a Feast at Hong Gate for him.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had neither the strength nor the courage for that.
The reason he had secretly looked at Ning Zhongying a few times was simply because he was puzzled.
If it were him, with a wife like Ning Zhongying, he would have gotten her pregnant long ago.
Among Qian Yunxiao's beauties, few who had entered his household had not borne children early on.
"Perhaps Ning Fengzhi is only in his fifties right now, so he doesn't dare drive such a big cart..."
Before long, Qian Yunxiao felt that he had found the answer.
Upon arriving at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's main hall, Ning Fengzhi was in a fairly good mood at that moment.
After making inquiries through various channels, he had indeed learned that Qian Yunxiao and Qian Daoliu might truly have fallen out.
The reason was easy enough to guess. Qian Yunxiao had married a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and Qian Daoliu considered it a disgrace to the Qian Family's reputation.
It was good that they had fallen out. That would allow Qian Yunxiao to join the Heaven Dou Empire and further strengthen its side.
That had also been Ning Fengzhi's purpose in inviting Qian Yunxiao today.
After Qian Yunxiao took his seat, three rounds of wine passed.
Ning Fengzhi then spoke first. "Your Excellency, if you need to make arrangements while establishing your family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the empire will fully support you."
This was Ning Fengzhi's gesture of goodwill toward Qian Yunxiao.
"Sect Master Ning, then I'll be troubling you. Once Poison Douluo and I have discussed things, I may not stand on ceremony with you."
Would Qian Yunxiao destroy the two empires in the future and become emperor himself? He would, but not now.
That would be a matter for at least several decades later.
Some matters could not be resolved simply because Qian Yunxiao had become a god.
The waters of the Douluo Continent ran deep.
Since Ning Fengzhi and the Heaven Dou Empire intended to lend Qian Yunxiao their strength, he would not be polite about it.
As for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and Sunset Forest, Qian Yunxiao truly intended to rebuild them properly.
Qian Yunxiao accepted Ning Fengzhi's goodwill, which made Ning Fengzhi genuinely delighted.
"Your Excellency, I have another piece of news to tell you. Please remain vigilant."
Once the time was right, Ning Fengzhi's expression turned serious as he prepared to tell Qian Yunxiao one more thing.
Qian Yunxiao replied calmly, "Sect Master Ning, please speak."
For Qian Yunxiao, unless it involved gods, nothing else could affect him now.
"Your Excellency, the matter of you settling down in Sunset Forest cannot be concealed from Spirit Hall. That person within the Heaven Dou Empire already knows that several Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts are by your side. And as far as I know, Pope Qian Xunji has reached the threshold of Rank 90 and happens to need a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, so..."
As the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi truly possessed quite a great deal of intelligence.
This made Qian Yunxiao's expression turn slightly serious.
Qian Xunji had originally possessed no Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.
If he learned that there were so many Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts around Qian Yunxiao, he would definitely come looking for trouble.
And even if he did not come, Qian Daoliu would!
"Hmph. Then we'll see what he's capable of!"
Qian Yunxiao sneered.
Give Qian Xunji a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring? Was that even possible?
He had fought Qian Xunji for many years.
How could he not know what sort of man Qian Xunji was? If Qian Yunxiao gave him a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, not only would he fail to show gratitude, he would even set his sights on the other Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts under Qian Yunxiao's command!
So if Qian Xunji truly dared to come, Qian Yunxiao would make sure he suffered for it.
Qian Yunxiao's tone truly delighted Ning Fengzhi.
If the two brothers were at odds, it would undoubtedly be a blow to Spirit Hall and beneficial to sects like theirs.
Qian Yunxiao had no intention of staying overnight at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. He left after finishing the wine.
Ning Fengzhi's wife personally saw him off.
After Qian Yunxiao left, Sword Douluo said to Ning Fengzhi, "Fengzhi, do you think he has truly fallen out with Spirit Hall?"
Ning Fengzhi answered, "I'm not sure of the specifics, but Qian Xunji has indeed brought people here. That much is true. We'll know when the time comes."
For some reason, Ning Fengzhi's intuition told him that the two brothers might truly end up fighting.
"Ah, can there truly not be two heirs in a royal family?"
Ning Fengzhi could not help but sigh.
If he had an elder brother or younger brother as well, what would the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect be like now?
"Your Excellency, you drank far too much."
After leaving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Qian Yunxiao put on an act, pretending to be so drunk that he staggered as he walked.
After thinking it over, Ning Zhongying finally took the initiative to support Qian Yunxiao, holding his arm as they continued onward.
This could be considered the fulfillment of Qian Yunxiao's plan.
