Chapter 4 Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Clan · Ning Tian (Part 1)
After dealing with all matters concerning his Fourth Soul Ring, Moyuan prepared to pack his things and head to another area of the Star Dou Great Forest.
As a Transmigrator who had read the original work, Moyuan naturally knew about the great opportunities described in the book. Therefore, two years ago, he had gone alone to the capital of the Star Luo Empire and gathered some information near the White Tiger Duke Mansion.
It was around that time that Moyuan learned Huo Yuhao's Mother, Huo Yun'er, had recently passed away. From this, he deduced that Huo Yuhao was the same age as him.
Now that he was almost twelve years old and Shrek Academy was starting a new round of admissions, it was time for him to enter the Star Dou Great Forest and seize opportunities.
At the same time, Moyuan also planned to enter Shrek Academy to study after seizing his opportunities. Regardless of anything else, although their teaching wasn't great, their resources were truly abundant!
With his disguised Body Martial Soul, the Golden Eyes, his terrifying talent, and his clean background as someone born in the Heaven Dou Empire and an Orphan, wouldn't Shrek's people treat him like a treasure?
As for the Introduction Letter required from a City Lord, that was even simpler. No one would refuse the favor of a genius.
However, just as Moyuan was preparing to leave, he seemed to have discovered something, and the step he was about to take abruptly halted.
Someone was coming!
Sensing someone rapidly approaching from the dense forest in the distance, Moyuan thought for a moment and did not leave quickly. His brilliant Golden Eyes lit up, and ancient and profound Dragon Language words came from his mouth:
"Wind of darkness, become my eyes."
"Spirit of Words · Weasel Dance!"
His domain fully unleashed!
Countless weasel dances, mixed with the wind, spread out rapidly in all directions from Moyuan's center at this moment. They were like scouts, bringing Moyuan all the sights that his eyes could not see.
Insects crawling on the soil, birds preening their feathers in the forest, Soul Beasts gnawing on the flesh and blood of their prey...
And... dozens of Soul Masters moving rapidly through the forest three hundred meters east of this location, and two humans faintly surrounded by these Soul Masters.
Were those two people about to be ambushed?
Based on the distribution of heartbeats, Moyuan sketched a picture in his mind: In the forest, two humans were walking slowly. In the unseen parts of the forest around them, dozens of Soul Masters were quietly following, always staying within three hundred meters of the two.
Ambush? No, that's not right. They don't seem like enemies, more like guards protecting them from the shadows. And in just this short while, they were already approaching me... Moyuan slowly opened his eyes, the Golden Eyes extinguished, and the weasel dances returned to the wind.
He subtly scanned the dark areas around the dense forest without making any further moves.
Moyuan understood the speed at which these dozens of people were moving. It was no exaggeration to say that if these dozens of people were not all Agile Attack System Soul Masters, then their cultivation realms must be above Soul King.
Otherwise, such speed would be impossible.
So, who were the two people being quietly guarded by dozens of Soul Kings?
Were they the Successors of a great Sect?
Moyuan didn't continue guessing, because the two people were already less than thirty meters away from him. He would soon see who they were.
Thirty meters in front of him, the dense shrubbery began to sway, and in the next second, two figures emerged from it.
One was a girl with scarlet red hair and eyes as red as flames. Her skin was fair and her figure was hot. The moment she saw Moyuan, her eyes instantly turned incredibly cold.
The other was also a girl, but both her appearance and temperament were a level above the red-haired girl. Her white gold hair cascaded down to her waist, and her clear blue eyes, as beautiful as the sea, were paired with delicate features, a slender build, and skin as fair as snow. Her demeanor was as noble as a princess.
Unlike the red-haired girl, whose eyes were cold and guarded upon seeing Moyuan, the white gold-haired girl's pupils in her beautiful blue eyes widened slightly the moment she saw Moyuan, just like almost every woman's reaction upon seeing him.
It was a look of surprise at something beautiful.
It wasn't surprising that the white gold-haired girl showed such an expression, as hybrids were rarely ugly; each one was stunningly beautiful.
Even Lu Mingfei had the title "Cherry Blossom of Divine Favor" at a host club in Japan's Takamagahara.
Moreover, the dragon blood in Moyuan's body came directly from Black King Nidhogg. His handsomeness was probably only rivaled by Shrimp Teacher.
However, when the red-haired girl saw the white gold-haired girl's expression, a hint of sadness appeared in her eyes, and then her gaze towards Moyuan became even colder.
"Who are you!" the red-haired girl pointed at Moyuan and demanded aggressively.
Facing the red-haired girl's hostile tone, Moyuan didn't get angry. Based on the dozens of guards subtly surrounding him and the appearance and temperament of the two girls, he had already guessed some information.
Their identities were certainly not low.
Otherwise, if it were anyone else daring to question him so aggressively, Moyuan would have already blasted them with a Jun Yan.
Moyuan revealed a gentle smile that was completely inconsistent with his usual demeanor. His previously cold aura suddenly changed, becoming extremely amiable, making it impossible to connect him with the brutal figure who had just slain the Dragon Horn Hunting Lizard.
"My name is Moyuan. I just finished hunting a soul beast here and was absorbing my soul ring when you appeared."
"Are you saying that the young master and I disturbed you?!" the red-haired girl pressed.
"Wu Feng!" The golden-haired girl, snapping back to attention, immediately called out to stop the red-haired girl and pulled her behind her. Then, she looked at Moyuan with a smile.
"I'm sorry. It's a bit sudden to encounter a stranger in the Star Dou Great Forest. Wu Feng was just worried about my safety. I hope you don't mind."
"Young Master, you..." Wu Feng's expression changed drastically when she saw Ning Tian smiling at Moyuan. A clear sense of disappointment washed over her. She wanted to persuade Ning Tian to leave immediately but was stopped by Ning Tian's gaze.
"It's alright. After all, the Star Dou Great Forest is indeed full of dangers. It's understandable for a subordinate to worry about her young master's safety."
Upon hearing the titles "Young Master" and "subordinate," Moyuan immediately understood their identities.
Ning Tian, the Young Sect Master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, and her little lapdog, Wu Feng.
Therefore, Moyuan subtly emphasized the word "subordinate" when he spoke and glanced at Wu Feng, his meaning clear.
Although he couldn't directly teach her a lesson, sometimes verbal attacks could inflict critical damage.
As expected, Wu Feng was instantly enraged upon hearing this. But just as she was about to retaliate, Ning Tian pressed her down again. This time, Wu Feng was completely deflated, standing silently behind Ning Tian with a pale face, her gaze towards Moyuan filled with even more intense anger.
"My name is Ning Tian, and this is my sister, Wu Feng. We are from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan," Ning Tian introduced herself, then took a few steps forward, stopping not far in front of Moyuan.
"The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan?" Moyuan feigned the expected surprise, but his heart remained unmoved.
Seeing Moyuan's expression, Ning Tian secretly nodded. She then shifted her gaze from his handsome yet eerie face to the corpse of the Dragon Horn Hunting Lizard.
"This is a Dragon Horn Hunting Lizard? And its cultivation is around twelve thousand years? Moyuan, have you already become a Soul King?"
Ning Tian clearly saw the corpse of the Dragon Horn Hunting Lizard. Based on its size and other features, she determined its age.
Upon learning that this Dragon Horn Hunting Lizard had a cultivation of twelve thousand years, she couldn't help but be startled. At the same time, an idea instantly popped into her mind.
As the young sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, Ning Tian's martial soul was also the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
Therefore, according to ancient teachings, her future partner must be a Strong Attack System Battle Soul Master, with no exceptions other than the Ancestor Ning Rongrong.
And because their martial soul was of the Support System, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had always strived to recruit talented Soul Masters into the sect.
The conditions for recruitment included wealth, treasures, and even people.
Thus, Ning Tian's education from her mother since childhood was to use all her advantages to win over young talents, of course, with certain boundaries.
Although it sounded rather ruthless, there was no other way; that's how sects with Support martial souls operated.
The intelligent Ning Tian understood this and knew it was the foundation of the sect's existence, so she did not resist it.
This was also why, upon seeing Moyuan, she was willing to let Wu Feng endure the slight in order to approach Moyuan.
Part of the reason was Moyuan's appearance, but the true deciding factors for whether she would continue to interact with him were still his strength and talent.
If Moyuan's talent was poor, Ning Tian would absolutely turn and leave.
