Cat Girl's Future, Meeting Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo for the First Time
Ning Fengzhi's act of publicly declaring Cat Girl's freedom instantly changed the tone of the discussions below the stage.
Previously sordid speculations have now turned into admiration and praise.
"My goodness, Sect Master Ning is too kind-hearted!"
"180,000 Gold Soul Coin, just to save a complete stranger?"
"As expected of the sect leader of the Upper Three Sects, his vision is truly beyond our reach!"
"I wouldn't be willing to part with that. 180,000 Gold Soul Coin could buy so many good things. Sect Master Ning, you truly have chivalry and courage!"
Cat Girl stood frozen on the spot on the exhibition stand.
It took a good ten seconds before I finally realized what was happening.
Looking at her identification and gold card in her hand, tears instantly streamed down her face.
Large drops fell and hit the ground.
She knelt down with a thud.
He kowtowed three times loudly towards the VIP room where Ning Fengzhi was.
His forehead hit the hard display stand with a dull thud, and quickly turned red.
"Sect Master Ning! Sect Master Ning!"
Her voice was choked with sobs as she repeated it over and over.
"I will never forget your great kindness in my lifetime!"
After kowtowing, she got up from the ground.
Clutching her identification and gold card tightly, she stumbled off the stage and out of the auction hall.
"Clap clap clap..."
The applause from the audience resounded throughout the entire venue.
It was more enthusiastic than ever before.
Both Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were somewhat bewildered by the sudden reversal.
Xiao Wu opened her mouth, looked at the empty stage, and then looked at the VIP room on the second floor.
His face was full of guilt and embarrassment. He scratched his head and muttered to himself.
"It seems I misunderstood him..."
Zhu Zhuqing's tightly furrowed brows relaxed.
She finally understood why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could become Upper Three Sects, and why Ning Fengzhi was respected by so many people.
Perhaps this behavior is just for show, to further solidify his reputation.
But he did it.
"Phew... thank goodness."
Ning Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and finally felt relieved.
Her face was still red, and she muttered awkwardly to herself.
"That really scared me to death! Luckily, Dad isn't that kind of psychopath, otherwise I wouldn't know how to face you all."
"I'll definitely have a good talk with him later. He never tells me before he does things, which almost made me misunderstand him."
Xiao Wu nodded. "Ning Rongrong, I apologize. I misunderstood your father. He's a good person."
"Hehe, of course, don't you know whose father he is?"
Ning Rongrong proudly raised her chin, her face full of a proud smile.
The embarrassment and anger from just now have long since vanished.
Only Lin Qingmo remained leaning back in his chair, his expression calm, as if he had expected this scene.
He knew, of course, that Ning Fengzhi would do this.
In the original novel, Ning Fengzhi also released the Cat Girl.
However, the biggest difference is that in the original novel, Ning Fengzhi bought the Cat Girl and then secretly released her.
Now, in front of a group of nobles, he officially released Cat Girl.
Xiao Wu then whispered to Lin Qingmo, "A-Qing, do you think that Cat Girl is a little girl? Isn't she in danger?"
Lin Qingmo smiled and shook her head, "No."
"Huh? Why?"
"Because Sect Master Ning announced her freedom in front of everyone."
In the original story, Cat Girl was secretly released, and no one knows whether she will be captured again in the future.
However, Ning Fengzhi's actions here are tantamount to providing Cat Girl with a safety guarantee within Heaven Dou City.
Even Xue Ye in Heaven Dou City had to give Ning Fengzhi face.
Within the Heaven Dou City, it's unlikely that any noble or royal would dare to defy him.
"Haha, this young man is right."
A gentle laugh came from behind the four of them.
All four of them turned around at the same time.
Then they saw Ning Fengzhi walking slowly over, with Chen Xin following behind him.
Neither of them wore masks, and their auras were restrained, yet they still possessed an undeniable presence.
Ning Fengzhi in a moon-white robe, his demeanor gentle and refined, with a warm smile on his face.
He happened to pick up where Xiao Wu left off.
"Don't worry, young lady. In this Heaven Dou City, no one dares to touch the people I, Ning Fengzhi, have sent out."
"I have already arranged for her to settle down in Heaven Dou City."
"!!!"
Xiao Wu was startled and instinctively shrank back behind Lin Qingmo.
She looked warily at the gentle and refined man before her.
After all, she had just been calling him a perverted scumbag behind his back.
Now that the person in question is standing right in front of him, it's somewhat awkward.
Lin Qingmo for her not to panic.
Ning Rongrong walked to Ning Fengzhi's Ning Fengzhi, hugged his arm and shook it, saying coquettishly:
"Dad, Sword Grandpa, why are you down here? The auction isn't over yet."
Ning Fengzhi ruffled her hair with a mixture of helplessness and affection, then gently stroked her nose with his fingertips.
"You little rascal, you went back to Heaven Dou City without even telling your father, and you even dared to sneak out to participate in the auction? You're getting bolder and bolder."
His tone was reproachful, but without a trace of anger.
"If I hadn't run into you here by chance, how long were you planning to keep this from me?"
"Oh dear, Dad, I've been so busy lately, I forgot to tell you!"
Ning Rongrong stuck out her tongue, clung to his arm, and continued to act cute and coquettish, trying to get away with it.
"I dropped out of Shrek Academy and have now joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, where I am also a member of the Imperial Fighting Team."
"We've been training a lot lately, preparing for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. We were just thinking of coming back to see you as soon as we're done!"
As she spoke, she proudly puffed out her chest, looking like she was saying, "Praise me!"
"You little rascal..."
Ning Fengzhi chuckled and shook his head, no longer blaming her.
He knew, of course, that Ning Rongrong had gone to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Bone Douluo had already brought back all the intelligence.
Following Ning Rongrong's words, his gaze fell once again on Lin Qingmo and the others.
"Ning Rongrong, won't you introduce your good friends to Daddy?"
"Oh, of course!"
Ning Rongrong immediately pulled Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing aside and introduced them with a smile.
"Dad, this is Xiao Wu, and this is Zhu Zhuqing. They are my best sisters!"
"We trained and lived together; they took great care of me!"
"Xiao Wu is Power-attack Type Battle Soul Elder, Zhu Zhuqing is Agility-attack-type type Soul Master. They're both incredibly powerful!"
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing immediately stepped forward and bowed to Ning Fengzhi.
"Greetings, Sect Master Ning."
"No need for formalities, you two are good children."
Ning Fengzhi smiled and waved his hand gently.
He especially glanced at Xiao Wu.
He looks about the same age as Ning Rongrong, but he's already a Soul Elder —a true genius.
"Thank you for taking care of Ning Rongrong during this time. This girl is spoiled and must have caused you a lot of trouble."
"No, no, Ning Rongrong is wonderful, we all like her very much."
Xiao Wu quickly waved her hand, her face flushed, and she looked a little embarrassed.
After all, she had just been badmouthing Ning Fengzhi behind his back, so she was still quite reserved in front of him.
Ning Rongrong then pointed at Lin Qingmo, her face full of pride and admiration, her voice even brighter.
"Dad, this is Qingmo, Lin Qingmo, who is also the Captain of our Imperial Fighting Team. We came from Shrek together!"
