Ning Fengzhi: It's Fine Not to Marry, As Long As There's a Child! (Request Monthly Ticket)

In the end, all three King of Hell Stickers fell into Lu Duzhou's hands, and Tang San kept none of them.

Without the experience of the Ice and Fire Golden Body, Tang San indeed lacked the ability to handle Hidden Weapons of this level with his current strength, so he could only let Lu Duzhou, the adult, keep them for now.

He would give them to Tang San once he broke through Level Forty.

The next day, after Tang San told Lu Duzhou everything he knew about the spiritual medicines and Immortal Herbs in this place, the three of them left the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

After returning to Dugu Manor, they learned that several forces, including the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and Prince Xuexing, had sent invitations.

A day later, Dugu Bo brought Lu Duzhou to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect outside Heaven Dou City.

Ning Fengzhi already knew that Dugu Bo's first reply had been to his side. He had begun to expect this matter to succeed, though he maintained a gentle smile.

"Your Excellency Dugu, welcome to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"This must be Little Brother Lu Duzhou. Come, please enter!"

Dugu Bo nodded slightly.

Lu Duzhou politely said:

"Uncle Ning, you can just call me Xiao Zhou."

After everyone took their seats inside, Dugu Bo got straight to the point.

"Whatever you want to know, I can tell you. But what do you intend to use in exchange for information of this level?"

Ning Fengzhi was delighted at first, then put on a solemn expression.

"Your Excellency, please name your terms. So long as it is within my ability, I will certainly satisfy them."

Dugu Bo nodded.

"Xiao Zhou was the one who told me this information, so let him name the conditions."

Ning Fengzhi looked over.

Lu Duzhou slowly began:

"Uncle Ning, I'm sure you've already guessed it. The key lies in Whale Rubber."

"And the easiest place to obtain this item is Spirit Hall."

"Spirit Hall has many Title Douluo. If they mobilize in large numbers, the Whale Rubber they can harvest will be far beyond anything we can compare to."

"I will tell you this information, and I will also tell others, including Spirit Hall."

"After all, we do not want to offend any of those great forces. Once everyone knows, there will be no danger."

"But this will certainly cause changes in the future balance of power."

"The earlier one learns its use, the greater the advantage."

"My conditions are simple. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will form an alliance with us. The next time we obtain Whale Rubber, whether your side goes out or ours does, the gains must be split equally."

"At the same time, if either side encounters any threat, we must assist one another."

"Lastly, we need a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone from the Limbs. Can the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect provide one?"

Ning Fengzhi said gravely:

"The alliance can be confirmed, but Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones are far too rare. At present, I only have two Thousand-Year Soul Bones."

"However, since we will be hunting Demon Whales in the future, I can guarantee Your Excellency Dugu that once we obtain a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone, we will deliver it directly to you. How does that sound?"

Dugu Bo nodded and said to Lu Duzhou:

"Xiao Zhou, tell them everything!"

Next, Lu Duzhou fully explained how melting and consuming Whale Rubber could increase Physical Body strength, how a strengthened Physical Body allowed one to absorb Soul Rings beyond the Super Theoretical Limit, and how high-year Soul Rings could assist in the evolution of a Martial Soul.

Once he finished, Jian Douluo Chenxin, who had been sitting silently in the back, suddenly asked:

"Dugu Yan's Martial Soul transformation should not have been caused merely by absorbing Soul Rings beyond their limit, correct?"

Lu Duzhou nodded.

"Indeed, it was not that simple."

"But that information is even more valuable. If Your Excellency wishes to know, that will require a separate price."

Bone Douluo Gu Rong could not help but speak.

"What conditions do you have?"

Lu Duzhou smiled.

"At the very least, one Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone."

The smile on Ning Fengzhi's face stiffened. A sharp light flashed through Chen Xin's eyes, while hot-tempered Gu Rong rose directly to his feet.

"A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone? Why don't you just rob us!?"

"Kid, you really dare to name such a price. Do you know what a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone represents?"

Of course I know. I have one on my leg right now.

"Your Excellency, do you think a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone can make a Martial Soul transform?"

"A treasure capable of allowing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to break through its Shackles and possess the potential to become a Title Douluo—can such a treasure be measured by a single Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone?"

"The fact that I asked for one Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone is already out of consideration for our alliance."

As he spoke, he looked toward Ning Fengzhi. Yellow, purple, and black Soul Rings emerged beneath his feet as his Land Martial Soul and Blue Silver Domain spread out.

"I was born with Half-level Innate Soul Power. I am not yet Twelve Years Old, yet my Soul Power is already Level Forty."

"Uncle Ning, with your experience, do you think I can become a Title Douluo?"

Everyone fell silent.

Not yet Twelve Years Old, yet already Level Forty—this was simply too shocking.

Even more terrifying was that the abilities Lu Duzhou displayed were not merely empty Soul Power cultivation. The power of that domain and the pressure brought by his Martial Soul were utterly real.

Ning Fengzhi felt it. Chen Xin and Gu Rong felt it as well.

And if all of this stemmed from the information that Lu Duzhou claimed was worth a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, then it truly was worth that much.

With the potential Lu Duzhou had displayed, he would almost certainly become a Title Douluo.

Information that could produce one or even several Title Douluo could be obtained with just one Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. They would be making a profit.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Lu Duzhou as his thoughts turned.

This child was not yet Twelve Years Old, while Rongrong was not yet ten. The two little ones were quite well matched.

However, Dugu Bo clearly intended for Dugu Yan and Lu Duzhou to be together, so snatching him away was not very realistic.

Still, Ning Fengzhi intended to bring Lu Duzhou and Ning Rongrong together.

Even if Rongrong did not ultimately marry Lu Duzhou, Lu Duzhou was so outstanding that it would be fine for them to have a child without getting married.

The child could even take the Ning surname and inherit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

With that thought, he gave a light cough and said:

"Xiao Zhou, your terms are indeed not excessive, but a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone is nearly impossible to obtain. Could you change your condition?"

"No."

Lu Duzhou decisively shook his head.

"This is the lowest price."

"Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo are both Title Douluo with extremely formidable combat power. If the two of you join forces, you should be able to kill a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, right?"

Gu Rong snorted coldly.

"We naturally have the strength, but how could a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast be so easy to kill?"

"There are even stronger existences within the Star Dou Great Forest. We do not dare venture too deeply inside. If you dare provoke them, you will only be courting death."

Lu Duzhou said with a smile:

"Then we won't provoke them."

"There are more Soul Beasts in the ocean. I believe finding a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast is not impossible."

He already had a target in mind: the Evil Orca King near Sea God Island.

"So long as the three of you agree that, when I need it, you will help me hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and obtain its Soul Ring and Soul Bone, I can guarantee that one person within your sect will have their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul transform into a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in a short time, directly laying the foundation for becoming a Title Douluo!"

The moment those words were spoken, Ning Fengzhi made up his mind. This child had to have children.
