What does this scoundrel want to do to my daughter?

While the entire Douluo Continent looked down on Yu Xiaogang, perhaps due to the baptism he underwent when entering the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands from the Douluo Continent, his physical strength had increased significantly. Thus, when the Old Figure force-fed him the Wolf and Tiger Medicine, not only did he not explode and die, but his blood and energy began to boil. His body emitted a rumbling sound, as if thunder were detonating inside the cave.

This scene made the Old Figure beam with joy.

"Very good. It seems the new body-refining medicinal liquid I developed is effective. At this rate, he will complete the Blood Transporting Realm and enter the Hole Heaven Realm in at most one day!"

"Next, as long as we fill him up properly, he might just have the strength of the Hole Heaven Realm!"

"In this way, the restoration of the nation is in sight!"

Meanwhile, on the other side, Ning Rongrong watched the massive, ferocious beasts occasionally flashing by in the far distance and couldn't help but look at Zhao Xiao, who was standing at the very front of the Golden Horned Flood Dragon.

Feeling Ning Rongrong's gaze, Zhao Xiao smiled slightly.

"Rest assured, I keep my word. Since I said I would take you out of the Barren Mountain Range, I will take you out of the Barren Mountain Range."

"However, I am heading to the Barren Region next. It is said that one of the ancient countries there, the Stone Country, is having a big event recently. Would you like to come with me to see it?"

After pondering for a moment, Ning Rongrong realized that compared to others, this young boy before her was actually more reassuring, so she nodded.

"I won't hold you back, will I?"

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Zhao Xiao's face.

"Don't worry. With your strength, you are still far from being able to hold me back. On the contrary, if you could truly hold me back, I would have to look at you in a new light."

As he spoke, Zhao Xiao raised a finger and pointed at himself.

"I have said before, I possess one-one-hundred-and-twenty-eighth of the bloodline of an Extreme Dao Supreme of the Chu Clan. Don't look down on it just because it's only one-one-hundred-and-twenty-eighth; that is an Extreme Dao Supreme! In the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, there is simply no one who can contend with this Extreme Dao Supreme!"

"What's more, what flows through this Extreme Dao Supreme is the blood of a branch of the Immortal King Chu Clan!"

"Its origin is a Quasi-Immortal King!"

"With a bloodline like this, how could I be defeated by the trash of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands?!"

"I can tell you clearly: I have never once looked at the trash of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands as anything worth noticing!"

Although it wasn't the first time she had heard Zhao Xiao say this, Ning Rongrong still couldn't suppress her curiosity and asked Zhao Xiao.

"Young Master Zhao, you keep saying that you have one-one-hundred-and-twenty-eighth of the bloodline of a Chu Clan Extreme Dao Supreme, and you mention the Immortal King Chu Clan. What exactly are these things? Why don't I understand what you're talking about?"

It must be said that the habit of being fond of playing the teacher is something few people can escape, no matter which world they are in.

Prompted by Ning Rongrong's question, Zhao Xiao's desire to play the teacher (and show off) was completely ignited.

Zhao Xiao thought for a moment and asked, "Before I answer your question, let me ask you: how much do you know about the cultivation realms of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands?"

Ning Rongrong shook her head, indicating she did not know.

Zhao Xiao sighed slightly and reached out, drawing two circles of different sizes in the void, one many times larger than the other.

"Do you know what these two circles represent?"

Ning Rongrong: ...

In the back of Ning Rongrong's mind, a miniature version of herself was already grabbing a miniature Zhao Xiao, slamming him against the ground repeatedly, her face full of irritation.

Is this Zhao Xiao sick in the head? Why does he keep asking me? Can't he just say it and be done with it?

Through the venting of her mental avatar, Ning Rongrong finally released some of the pent-up frustration in her heart. Suppressing the urge to retort, she shook her head.

"I don't know. Please enlighten me, Young Master."

Zhao Xiao nodded in satisfaction and pointed to the larger circle.

"This is the Immortal Domain where I was born and raised. The Immortal Domain is vast and boundless, a land of outstanding people and divine spirits. Every genius in the Immortal Domain is incredibly powerful. Even I, within the Immortal Domain, can at most be considered a Third-Rate Genius."

"I won't go into too much detail about the Immortal Domain; you won't be going there anyway. However, beyond the known regions of the Immortal Domain, there are even more vast No Man's Zones. It is said that those places are dangerous to the extreme. Even the Immortal Kings who stand at the pinnacle of the Immortal Domain dare not venture too deep, fearing they might meet their doom."

"As far as I know, only the Ancient Ancestor of the Immortal King Chu Clan, Chu... forget it, I cannot speak of it. In short, the Ancient Ancestor of the Chu Clan once ventured deep into the No Man's Zone and fought a great battle against the monsters within. It is said that the battle shook the entire Immortal Domain, and it was precisely because of that battle that the Immortal King Chu Clan established their absolute hegemony in the Immortal Domain."

"Beyond that earth-shattering Ancient Ancestor, the Immortal King Chu Clan also possesses nine Quasi-Immortal Kings and hundreds of True Immortals."

"And what flows through my veins is the blood of a descendant of a Quasi-Immortal King from a branch of the Immortal King Chu Clan—the blood of a branch Extreme Dao Supreme!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Xiao's face was filled with pride.

Although by his generation, the blood of the Quasi-Immortal King had thinned to the point of being almost negligible, it was still a Quasi-Immortal King!

Even if it was only a trace, it had a massive influence on him!

After a pause, Zhao Xiao continued.

"I say all this just to tell you that even in the Immortal Domain, Immortals are extremely rare, and in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, it is already impossible to become an Immortal!"

"Therefore, my bloodline, even in the Upper Realm's Ten Lands or above the Nine Heavens, can absolutely be called the very top!"

"Even those ancient Eternal Life Clans above the Nine Heavens may not be as noble as I am!"

Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap...

Ning Rongrong clapped incessantly, while calling out things like "So amazing!" and "That's so badass!", giving Zhao Xiao plenty of emotional validation.

After a long while, Zhao Xiao finally turned his gaze back to Ning Rongrong and said with a smile.

"You woman, you really are interesting. You actually managed to make me quite happy. If it weren't for certain reasons, I would really like to keep you by my side."

In the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect of the Douluo Continent, Ning Fengzhi's expression changed in an instant.

"What does this bastard want to do to my daughter?!"

"I don't agree! I absolutely do not agree! You could beat me to death and I still wouldn't agree!"

"My precious daughter can only find someone from the Douluo Continent—no, the Heaven Dou Empire—no, she can only find someone from near my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect! She absolutely cannot find someone from the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands!"

At this moment, Ning Fengzhi was like an old father terrified of his daughter marrying far away, bordering on frantic.

On the other side, in the Martial Soul Hall, after Bibi Dong paused the playback on Qian Renxue's Light Screen, she happened to cast her gaze toward Ning Rongrong's Light Screen.

Listening to Zhao Xiao's words, for some reason, she suddenly associated them with her own daughter, Qian Renxue.

Perhaps it was because the term "Upper Realm" had appeared on Qian Renxue's side, and the same term had appeared on Ning Rongrong's side as well!

"An illusion, it must be."

Shaking her head, Bibi Dong cast these messy thoughts aside and began to analyze what Zhao Xiao had said.
