Douluo: Bestowed Marriage Upon Ning Rongrong, Rewarded with Heaven Shading Method

Looking at Rongrong's aggrieved expression, he said, "I'm being very serious!"

"There's a huge difference between a fast man and a man who takes his time!"

Rongrong's pretty face reddened slightly. She sighed and could not be bothered to bicker with him anymore.

She glanced at the path ahead, then skipped forward.

Ye Xingchen, following behind her, smiled faintly. Just as he was about to step forward, he suddenly sensed something behind him. He turned around, but found nothing unusual.

He shook his head and quickened his pace to catch up.

Not long after he left, the White-Bearded Old Man slowly revealed himself and stepped out.

Watching the receding figures, he muttered, "What a remarkable kid. He hasn't even reached the rank of a Soul Master, yet he possesses the power to brutally kill a Soul Grandmaster."

"Could his martial soul be a mutation? What's most terrifying is that he doesn't even have a Soul Ring yet. And he's quite perceptive too. Since when did the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect produce such a genius...?"

The White-Bearded Old Man sighed softly to himself, then left a mark on the path behind him.

After glancing at the departing figures, he quickly followed after them!

Not long afterward, Bruce and the Golden-Haired Man, both wearing sinister expressions, quietly arrived there.

Looking at the mark left on the ground, Bruce turned back and said with a smile, "My lord, we're very close!"

"Look... can I go back now...?"

Hearing this, the Golden-Haired Man smiled faintly.

He nodded and snapped his fingers. A leather pouch suddenly appeared in his hand.

He glanced at Bruce and chuckled.

"Eight hundred thousand gold coins. Is that enough?"

"Remember to keep your mouth shut, or else..."

Eight hundred thousand gold coins?

Bruce, whose eyes lit up at the sight of money, nodded. His mind was already filled with thoughts of how many women he could have with those eight hundred thousand gold coins!

After taking the leather pouch, he knelt down in gratitude.

"Please rest assured, my lord. I won't do anything foolish. No second person will learn of this matter!"

The Golden-Haired Man nodded with a smile as he watched Bruce rise and leave.

He dusted off his hands and said with a smile, "That's right. There won't be a second person who knows about this!"

The moment he finished speaking, Bruce—whose mind was full of women—had barely taken two steps when a sudden agony tore through his body.

Looking down, he saw several web-like strands emerging from all over his body.

As drops of blood fell, he turned back and muttered, "So ruthless... you..."

The Golden-Haired Man smiled faintly and waved his hand. The leather pouch returned to his hand.

He sniffed the scent of blood on it, then slowly left the area.

As for that pile of mangled remains, it was soon buried beneath the snow and ice...

Chen Xin, hiding in the shadows with his arms folded, sighed softly.

Glancing at the departing figure, the corner of his mouth curled upward.

It was the first time he had seen such a vicious offensive martial soul.

However, the techniques used were not difficult to identify.

He looked deep into the forest, then immediately turned into a wisp of green smoke and departed!

Deep within the forest, beside a lake, Ye Xingchen stood completely still, allowing the snow and ice to slowly cover his entire body.

From a distance, he looked just like a snowman.

Rongrong, hiding by the Shore beside a lit bonfire, sighed softly.

Seeing him put on such an act, she settled in and prepared to watch the show!

At that moment, ripples spread across the lake's surface, followed by a piercing sound that suddenly rang out.

Standing at the water's edge, Ye Xingchen slowly opened his eyes. The longsword in his hand instantly flew from his grasp.

In an instant, a flash of Silver Light appeared across the lake's surface, and a streak of crimson spread through the water!

"Jiang Taigong fishes; those willing take the bait..."

"No wonder."

With that remark, Ye Xingchen summoned his Heavenly Emperor Cauldron Martial Soul and plunged straight beneath the water!

Ning Rongrong, standing guard by the shore, sighed softly. Even when fishing, this guy has to make such a spectacle of it.

If he ever got into a fight, wouldn't it be even more earth-shattering?

As a splash broke across the lake's surface, Ye Xingchen, dressed in white, suddenly shot out of the water.

Holding a three-meter-long white fish in his hands, he looked utterly mismatched with it.

If he had not used his longsword to prop it up, he truly would not have been able to carry the fish!

"Is this fish a little stupid? It actually delivered itself right to my doorstep!"

"Hurry up! I want to eat your grilled fish—I'm starving!"

With her eyes shining, Ning Rongrong swallowed and hurriedly moved away from the fire, stepping forward with a grin.

"When Jiang Taigong fished, only those willing to bite took the hook!"

"Not bad, not bad. Quite a haul!"

A haul?

Hearing Ye Xingchen say that, Rongrong could not help finding it a little strange.

He only caught one fish. How is that a big haul?

Just as she was about to ask, she saw Ye Xingchen set down the fish and head toward the lake again!

"One fish is enough..."

"Any more, and we won't be able to finish it..."

Hearing Rongrong's voice behind him, Ye Xingchen did not stop.

He came to the lake's edge and swept his gaze over the surface before looking toward its center!

There was a black spot in the middle of the lake, which looked like a rock from afar.

But unless one entered the water, it would be hard to tell that it was a Xuanwu!

The moment he had dived underwater earlier, Ye Xingchen had spotted it at a glance.

Neither big nor small, it seemed to be an adolescent!

Judging by its condition, it was still dormant.

He rubbed his chin, gritted his teeth, and immediately dove into the water!

On the shore, Ning Rongrong watched Ye Xingchen enter the water again and could not help sighing softly.

Knowing absolutely nothing about grilling fish, she stared at the fish before her, caught in a dilemma.

"Grrr..."

Unable to bear her growling stomach any longer, she swallowed and immediately pulled out a dagger to start cutting.

As she cut, her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul suddenly reacted.

Naturally quick-witted, Rongrong frowned and immediately took two steps back.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

As several sharp sounds rang out, several earthen spikes suddenly appeared where she had been standing!

Then, two figures slowly emerged from the nearby woods.

They were the White-Bearded Old Man and the Blonde Man!

"It seems we arrived at just the right time. Your companion isn't here, haha!"

Looking at the isolated Rongrong, the Blonde Man smiled faintly.

"Hello, Princess Rongrong!"

"It has truly been a long time!"

A long time?

Ning Rongrong frowned tightly as she looked at the two of them, finding them somewhat unfamiliar.

As far as she remembered, she had never seen these two before!

Yet, judging by their appearance, they seemed to know her!

"Since you know who I am and still dare to attack me, then you are enemies!"

"Who are you? Who gave you such nerve?"

The Golden-Haired Man smiled indifferently and glanced at Ning Rongrong before him.

A lewd glint appeared in his eyes as he said with a smile, "That isn't important. What's important is that you've fallen into my hands now!"

The cold wind howled, and snow drifted through the air.

Standing beside the fire, Ning Rongrong heard this and a trace of killing intent appeared on her face.

With a casual wave of her hand, her martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, immediately appeared.

Glancing at the two men, she could not help but clench her fists tightly.

Though she had expected it, Ning Rongrong still felt somewhat excited inside!

"Why struggle like a trapped beast?"

"My bed at home is quite large. I merely wish to invite Princess Rongrong back for a visit..."

The Blonde Man smiled frivolously as he spoke, while the White-Bearded Old Man beside him slowly advanced.

At the same time, a cloud of black mist suddenly emerged around him.

Any falling snow that approached the old man was swallowed up by the black mist and vanished.

"A Soul King..."

Feeling that soul-stirring, powerful aura, Ning Rongrong could not help but grow slightly tense.

She secretly glanced at the lake and cursed inwardly a couple of times.

"First: Strength. Second: Speed. Third: Soul!"

Seeing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect soul skill, the approaching White-Bearded Old Man could not help but curl his lips into a faint smile.

When he was less than ten meters away, a pair of scarlet eyes slowly opened within the black mist behind him!

"Roar!"

The next second, a beastly roar rang out!

A Black Panther, black all over with fangs filling its mouth and blood-red eyes, pounced out from the black mist!
